Burke crawled the footghts at the Seattle thea

would not agree to represent the railroads in the
United States senate and because Levi Ankeny had
agreed to be railroad representative if elected to the
senate and for the good of the Republican party he
was perfectly justified in doing Ankeny was
elected and he kept his promise. Then Judge Burke
supported Mr. Piles in his own quiet way because Mr.
Piles had fully agreed to the railroad program, and
when he was elected the railroads had two represent

FRIDAY July Is, 1910

When Judge Burke Sheriff Hodge, Bob Bridges and
LATE Hamilton go campaigning in the southern part OF
King county in quest of Republican votes then quar-
tet of galvanized Republicans are out barn stormng
and without discordant note. All of them have left
the Democratic party and have become Republicans
for the sole purpose of getting an office thing they
could not have gotten Democrats. 1t would, how
ever seem that for the sake of the looks of things
those men would prefer to compagn by themselves in
stead of in quartet since everybody in the county is
we'll aware of the fact they are all ex-Democrats.
And speaking of the above ex-Democrats, who are
trying to the Republican party in the county and
state it is rather remarkable that the two newspapers
that are endeavoring to force their nomination and
election and to have to say in the affairs of the
Republican party than the Republican newspapers
themselves are the Times and the STAR both of Seat
tie and both of them blatant mouth Democrat organs
who will do anything to disrupt the Republican party
The Times has already been said in these columns
always supports the Democratic ticket and the Star is
disgruntled sheet that is'against everybody that
does not pay it tribute.
When Senator Piles says in the Times that, Judge
Burke is good enough Republican for me, there are
those in this community who will readily agree with
the senator Judge Burke has always been king pen
railroad man and in view of the fact that Senator
Piles has pulled at the same teat himself for his
daily bread any one whether Democrat, Insurgent
Populst who will agree to represent the railroads in
the United States senate instead of the people, is
good enough Republican for Senator Piles. In other
words, to be Republican is only means to end so
far as Senator Piles and the railroads concerned

the purpose of hanging it until hell froze if the
other eleven voted for conviction? If you were
a member of the firm at the time, why did you hold
up your right hand and swear that you could try the
case according to the law and evidence, when your
firm was turning heaven and earth to have Ripinger
acquitted? The conviction of Riplinger depended
upon the 81 500 check and of the members of your
firm swore that it was a loan. Did you not know all

If you answer yes and you must, then how could you

A Move In The Right Di-

Twenty six county auditors
met at their sixth annual conVen-
ton Tuesday. An address was
delivered by Tax Commissioner
Frost, who said in part, that tax
alton in this state is increasing
at a frightful rate; that auditors
should advise county commits
sioners to reduce and curtail pub
lie expenses. Notwithstanding
we have a tax commission, our
taxes. state and local burdens
have greatly increased since this
body was constituted. Our es-
teemed governor might give a
little of his time to the matters
of retrenchment and economy,
instead of worrying over the
liquor question and making po-
litical deals. 1t probably cost
three times as much to meet the
of our state govern
ment than in some of the other
commemorative containing twice
our population. The Republican
administration in this state is
paving the way for ultra radical
policies, which will make those
