1T is A WINNING fight
Progressive Republicans Confident of Sue
cess at the Primaries

Spokane, May 2.-Rufus R. Wilson,
secretary of the Progressive Republican
League, has returned from the west
side of the state full Of enthusiasm for
its success. The farmers and work.
ingmen," says Mr.. Wilson, are prac-
tically all for Poindexter. The Pro-
gressive movement is immensely popu-
lar with them, and they are resolved to
have representative in the senate who
will stand against the steady advance OF
Aldrichism.
Not only in the country districts is
Poindexter strong, but he will have a
majority Of the vote in Tacoma, despite
the Mccormick movement. He will,
of course, have Spokane and Wenat-
chez strong, and while I have not Wis
tied Bellingham and Everett, there is a
strong Progressive sentiment there and
Poindexter will lead it. He will be
naturally in strong majority in Walla
Walla.
I'VE have had canvasser in Sena-
tor Jones' territory for the last week.
He has been doing nothing else but
making a ranch-to-ranch canvass OF
Yakima county, seeing as many farmers
as possible every day, and he reports
that at least 80 per cent are for Poin-
dexter. In fact, I feel safe in saying
that this percentage will generally pre-
vail on the east side of the mountains,
while he will at least break even in
King county. In Pierce and the other
southwestern counties Poindexter will
be a majority candidate-he will poll
more votes than all the other candi-
dates put together"
This condition, Mr.. Wilson admitted,
might be due to the number OF candi-
dates against Mr.. Poindexter, as, with
ex-senator Wilson and his powerful
newspaper, Judge Thomas Burke and
ex-Judge Humphries in the field from
Seattle and R. L. Mccormick from Ta-
coma, the strength is considerably di-
vided, but it is significant that the
Spokane man, according to his mana
ger, has more strength in Tacoma than
Mccormick, while he at least will
break even in Seattle. His real

THE GIRL CHANGED HER MIND
Laura May Ball Comes From Oklahoma
to Wed ChunlStick Valley
Rancher

The following story is taken from the
Wenatchee World of last Friday. The
would-be groom is well known here.
His parents reside in the Chumstick
valley some nine miles from Leaven-
worth. The romance grew out Of a
correspondence established through a
matrimonial bureau. After her disap-
pearance the young lady was found the
following day, but steadfastly refused to
enter into the married state, but thinks
she may remain in Washington:
Nv. N. Cromwell OF Leavenworth is
searching the city today to find Laura
May Ball OF Lamar, Oklahoma, who
came with him to the city early this
morning to get married, and registered
at the Olympia hotel, but who disap-
peared from the hotel when the would
be groom went out to get license.
The police were notified and the young
man is searching the streets for another
vision OF the affinity with whom he had
been corresponding for four months
but had never seen before the early
dawn this morning.
Mr.. Cromwell is a son of Chas. Crom-
we'll Of Leavenworth, and lives about
ten miles west of Leavenworth on a
ranch. He became acquainted with
the lady, he says, through the ]. w.
Slosser's correspondence club Of Gray's
Lake, Illinois, and he met her early
this morning in Leavenworth on hei
arrival from her Oklahoma home. They
came to Wenatchee and while he was
finding out about procuring a license
the fairy vanished. Although he says
she did not get any OF his money he
wants to see her to find out why she
did not like him. The police gave him
the consoling information that he wa;
lucky because she was gone; but he
still wants to know why"

strength, however, lies with the people.
All Mr.. Poindexter's opponents are
well off, Judge Burke and Mr..
Mccormick are millionaires, while
Senator Wilson and ex-Judge Hum
phries are reputed to possess the where
withal for a lively fight. Notwithstand
ing this, says Mr.. Wilson, the Poin-
dexter movement is gaining strength
every day.
Something that I have not seen yet
in print" continued the manager, is
the fact that 90 newspapers in the
state of Washington are supporting
Poindexter, Notwithstanding the fact
that the old-line machine republicans
are almost solidly lined up against him.
The organization Of the Progressive
Republican League goes forward swim
mingly, and we have been particularly
fortunate in getting such men as Austin
E. Griffeths, Jesse H. Reed and Judge
Donald McMaster enlisted in the
movement. In twenty-six out Of thirty
eight counties the league is organized
and doing business, and there is no
good reason to doubt that Poindexter
will be the choice of the people at the
primaries. The only danger comes in
the legislature, where the power of the
machine will be harder to counteract,
but we shall make progressivism an
issue in every precinct and are conf
dent that we shall be able to organize
the legislature in such shape as to
carry out the peoples will"
