THE POLITICAL POT
LOCAL POLITICS WARMING UP.
ABEL WITHDRAWS.
The Greatest Need of GravS HarbOr Is
COngre ssman, but the Hope Goes
Glimmering. Bruener Urged to
Run for County Attorney. More
Candidates Pile.

Because Chehalis county republi-
cans refused to enthuse-and dig up
for w. H. Abel for congress, that
nOunces that he will not favor them
by making the race and retires from
the field. The reason assigned is that
he was unable to secure the undivid-
ed support of Chehalis county repub-
licans-an impossible feat that was
required in other counties of the dis
trict before they would listen to his
aspirations
1t is said that an additional rea-
son was the failure of his managers
to raise $500 of a campaign fund
for the thrifty candidate who was to
have brought home the goods" The
Herald never took this candidacy SER
iously. and has believed all along
that the move was in the interest Of
McCredie, and was rendeded unnec-
essary by the endorsement of the
Columbia river man last Saturday by
the Pierce county convention. This
endorsement shows the second dis
trict is managed by the old standpat
machine, and points way for the
southwest to get rid of McCredie if
they will before the new congressional
apportionment saddles him on Grays
HarbOr indefinitely.
A widespread movement is afoot to
induce T. B. Breuner, of Aberdeen, to
become candidate for county attor-
'ney in opposition to the present in
cumbent, w. E. Campbell. Dissatis-
faction is expressed in different parts
of the county to Mr.. Campbell as a
prosecutor, and a large support is
pledged to Breuner if he will consent
to make the race.
There are now three candidates in
the field for state senator, o. M. Mel.
son, of MontesanO, having filed this
week to make the run against Harry
Hewitt, of Hoquiam, and Jay d.
Crary, of Aberdeen. Yesterday N. S.
Richards, the well known attorney Of
Oakville, filed his declaration as can
didate for representative from the
29th district. Mr.. Richards is the
second candidate for representative
from the eastern part of the county,
E. l.. Minard having filed last week.
Aberdeen has several receptive candi-
dates whom this eastern activity is
likely to bring out in the open.
w. B. Ogden, city treasurer of Ho-
quiam, filed his candidacy for county
treasurer on the democratic ticket
yesterday, and feels that he will sue
ceed or if he fails his competitor will
know he had opposition.

ARRESTED FOR FLIRTING

HOQUIAM, July 20.-Nick Dragatel,
a Greek, was arrested last night for
trying to flirt with Mrs. c. F. Keil.
Dragatel entered the notion store run
by Mrs. Keil at Smith and Monroe
streets, and after making a purchase

contained his postoffice address. Mrs.
Keil at once told her husband, and
the two sought City Attorney Gala.

present to arrest him. He was taken
to the police station, where he is held

REFUSE HARBOR AREA
TO TIDELAND OWNER
State Commission Complicates Case
in Which Property for Roadway
Is Involved

The state land commissioners have
refused to lease the harbor area in
front of tideland owned by r. A..
Wiley on the ground that Wiley fail
ed to file his declaration in time. This
complicates the case of Wiley and the
city. Wiley owned land along the
Chehalis <fiver and the land commits
siOners Say he promised a waiver to
the portion of the tide flats over
which the county road running into
this city from Montesano crosses.
A deed was given by the state land
office on the presumption that Wiley
had fulfilled his agreement by filing
the waiver. The waiver is not on file.
The city brought suit to quiet title
to the roadway which is now in the
superior court. The action Of the land
commissioners in refusing Wiley a
lease of the harbor area makes his
tideflat much less important. Wiley
has appealed to the superior court
from the decision of the land office.

FOREST FIRES RAGE
Heavy Loss at Mack's Logging Camp
Near EIma-PoIson's and Other
Camps in Danger

The Mack logging camp, located a
short distance east of Elma, was COM
pletely destroyed by forest fire Tues
day evening. Reports received here
yesterday state that the entire camp
equipment, including logging en-
gines, many logging cars, bunk houses
and supplies were destroyed.
The fire in the North river district
is said to be burning slowly into the
green timber, but at such a slow rate
that the amount of damage is nominal.
The Poison Logging company is in
the greatest peril should fire get start
ed in its workings, as there are thou
sands Of acres of logged.off lands
which would burn, destroying the rail-
road system.

THE PARTY bUGAbOO.
that PUTS PARTYISM ABOVE
PATRIOTISM.
Was Predicted by Washington, who
Warned the Young Nation Against
It's Evil Effects. The PARTY Whip
Has Lost Its TerrOrS for the lndS-
pendent Voter.

The party man of the old school,
who puts partisanism above patriot
ism will do well to consider the words
of Mayor Gaynor of New York, in
reference to the appointment of Pro
fessOr l. F. Russell to a judgeship in
New York City. Mayor Gaynor is a
democrat. Professor Russell is a
republican. Here is what Gaynor says
in letter to Russell:
"My secretary calls my attention
to the fact that one newspaper says
this morning that you are a republican
and another that you are a democrat.
We have worked together all these
years for certain principles and ideals
in government, without it ever occur
ring to me which you were. If you
really are republican, am more con-
vinced than ever that between a good
democrat and a good republican there
is very little difference. after all"
Here speaks the man wise enough
to see that the party spirit, as com.
monty manifested, is alien to the spirit
of true democracy. It would seem
that it would not take a very wise
man to see this. Nevertheless it has
ldhCA lAl0 OVCI CCAtOly CtCu
to sense a glimmer of this truth. We
cannot plead that it has been to us
a hidden and inaccessible truth all
that time. One hundred and fourteen
years ago it was plainly stated in q
public document that nearly every
boy or girl who has been educated
in American public schools has either
read or heard read. George Washing
ton in his farewell address to the
people of the United States. set il
forth clearly:
Let me now warn you in the
most solemn manner against the
baneful effects of the spirit of party
generally. 1t exists, under diff
ferent shapes, in all governments
more or less stifled, controlled or re
pressed; but in those of the popular
form 1t is seen in the greatest rank
ness, and is truly their worst enemy
In governments purely elective
it is spirit not to be encouraged
From their natural tendency. it is Ger
tain that there will always be enough
of that spirit for every salutary pur
pose"
Now, at last, folks are beginning, in
some measure, to realize the truth
of what Washington said, of whaI
Mayor GaynOr says, of what few
other men, as wise as they, have said
in this same regard. True. there are
still men who think the Grand Old
Party" has it's patent direct from the
Great White Throne, and other men
who believe that the only genuine
sample of fire from Liberty's altar is
hidden somewhere in the custody OF
the men who vote for the things that
they think Jefferson and Jackson
stood for. But these pur-blind and
hide-bound persons grow fewer year
by year.
The day for the free voter is at
hand. New parties there will be, of
course, but never again can the crack
of the party whip serve to make the
thinking citizen grovel.
From the party fetish has been
shown up for just what it is-a mere
bug-a-boo to frighten fools withal-

srookins Breaks Flying Records.

Walter II. Brookins. the young avia-
tor. landed at the Illinois state fair
grounds at Springfield and was cheer.
ed by the $4,000 spectators after he
had finished his flight OF 1856 miles
from Chicago.
The time. including stops. was seven
hours and ten minutes.
The actual time In the air was FIVE
hours and forty-one minutes. and his
average speed for the distance. with
stops eliminated. was about thrty-two
miles an hour.
Brookins arrived in Springfield two
minutes ahead OF the special train
with which he had raced from Gilman.
In accomplishing this feat he won
the $4,000 prize for which he was
striving and demolished two records.
one of them the worlds record for
continuous cross-country flights. and
the other the American record for sus-
tanned flight.
First OF the records TO be demolish-
ed by Brookins was Hamilton's Amer
lean cross-country record from New
York TO Philadelphia. This was sur.
passed when Brookins went over
Mount Pulaski. lightweight miles from
Gilman, this distance being two miles
greater than the mileage record Of
Hamilton.
The second record was hung up by
Brookins. when his total distance trav-
eled from Chicago exceeded iii miles.
