quarters after the meeting of the
new county committee, which will
be held Saturday afternoon in one
of the rooms at the court house.
Spokane county democrats feel
hopeful over the outlook in the
county. Democrats have always
been against the county ring, and
now a good large share of the re-
publicans of the county are begin
ming to share the same views. AS
surances that have come to the
democratic candidates have caused
them to believe that they have the
chance of a generation to clean the
court house, and the sentiment is
that the fight should be an aggres-
sive one. Farmers and people In
favor of good government went into
the primaries to help the republi-
cans clean their own house. In
stead of cleaning 1t the old gang
was given q stronger hold. Now the
democrats offer the only solution
to the question.

HOW A SALVATION
LASS|E WON A VICTORY

Where Is My Wandering Boy To-
night?" The young woman stepped
forward, the organ notes began and
unmindful of the noise and clamor
of the street and the sullen looks OF
the crowd. she started to sing. 1t
was a sweet voice and pure of tone,
unframed like the others, to be
sure, but of a charm that seemed to
hold you and compel you to listen,
and the crowd fixed their eyes upon
her and listened. The mumblings
gradually ceased. The hard faces
relaxed just a trifle and the girl
kept on singing, her voice floating
out over the crowd, her mind fixed
upon her words.
The faces seemed hostile no
longer. Here and there a man
shifted uneasily. Who knows of
what they were thinking then? Sud
denly the voice ceased. All was
still for a moment, and then the
crowd shifted and some moved
away, but somewhere among them

party held last night at the office
Of Merritt. Guth & Meyer. in the
Paulsen building, 1t was resolved to

choice. Four or five names were
suggested for the office, and
committee consisting of w. r. Roy
candidate for county commissioner,

didate for sheriff, was appointed to
look up a suitable man.
