FLAYS PEARY; UPH0LDS C00T.
Mayor Of Atlanta Says Peary's Selfish
ness Has Disguised Country.

ATLANTA, Ga, March 16.-After
fatty refusing to introduce Command
err r. r. Peary. who lectures here TO
right, Gov. j. NJ. Brown gave out an
Interview In which ne denounced
Perry as fakir and defended DR..
Cock. Gov Brown said:
what proof does Peary bring save
his own word? Cook brings the same
and as good. If Cook has handed US
a gold brick. Peary has handed US
a paste diamond.
''It Is. up TO Peary to explain how
Cooks story can be false and his lden-
teal story can bestrue. The American
people will not accept his smile as
proof that he is not as great a fakiF
On he charges Cook to be. Peary and
Cook tell the same stories about find
ing the pole. and like the Siamese
twins. they must live together or die
together. You might as we'll say that
Chang was a Chinese and Eng was an
Englishman as TO say that Cooks story
IL false and Peary's true.
"Peary's selfishness has Disguised
the country. | am glad congress has
refused TO honor Peary To do so
would put government approval upon

fake we are asked 10 stamp Peary'J

KEEP THE SENATORSHIP FIGHT
OUT OF THE CONVENTION.

The recent fractional antagonism
developed by reason of the circum
stances attending the caucus and pri
mary held last week again empha-
sizes the need of preServ-
ing party harmony in as
large a measure as possible. If
the convention will confine it's de-
alterations to the purposes for which
ii is called, namely, to nominate del
egates to the state convention for
the purpose of nominating a state
judiciary ticket, there need be no
harsh factional feeling engendered.
II on the other hand, the convention.
whether controlled by progressives
or regulars, insists on forcing a SEN
atorial endorsement for the particu-
lar candidate, there is every reason
to believe that the interests of the
party will suffer in consequence.
The senatorial question should be
left to the individual preference of
many candidates in the field and re-
Election combined with good sense,
will justify this view of the situa-
ton
Those conventions, and they are
few in number, which have departed
from this policy, have clearly over
stepped the limits of propriety, for
the reason that the direct primary
law is intended to leave such mat
tiers as this wholly to the discretion
of the voters, and in such an intelli-
gent and Independent constituency
as is found in Chelan county, no
other course should be contemplate
ed. The fact that in one caucus here
in Wenatchee there were only three
OF four voters present and in the
other, only half a dozen, should pre-
clude the Wenatchee delegation from
being a party to any movement
which would result in permanent an
tagonisms. Representative men on
the delegation who refuse to tabled
either progressive or standpat, but
just plain republican, have already
declared their intention of opposing
the consideration of any question
outside the legitimate purpose for
which the convention has been
called.
1t was just such occurrences as
transpired in the caucus last week
that has disguised the rank and file
of the party and that led to the en-
actment Of the direct primary law
In the very nature of the case the
caucus system practically hands over
to a handful of Immediately interest
ed men the decision of questions
which the voters of the party as a
whole should pass upon. 1t is !
doubtful whether a stronger con-
crete instance for the retention of
the primary law could be found any
where than in the circumstances at
tending the caucus last week. The
mass of the voters neglect to attend
caucuses, but they will participate

Progressive Republicanism POliti.
cal Preventive of Socialism.

President Taft has asserted that
there is a danger of socialism con-
trolling American society and captur-
ing the government at no distant
day. Mr.. Roosevelt's reformatOry
and progressive policies during his
presidency were in no small degree
inspired by a righteous resolve to
remove such abuses in business in
dustry and politics as give occasion
for recourse to socialism as the rem
edy. Senator Cummins now eluci-
dates the idea that progressive re-
publicanism is a political preventive
of socialism.
Whether the special interests shall
be driven out of politics and the con-
troll of parties is no mere local is
sue. 1t is a nationwide affair. 1t
is a matter of vital and permanent
import. 1t is an issue of the same
sort as that which ended government
by the people in ancient Rome and
medieval Florence and Venice.
Mr.. Cummins has the right of the
matter. Such a standstill leader
ship" as that of Speaker Cannon and
Senator Aldrich by bestowing favors
at law on special interests, especial
ly on wealthy corporations, drives
men unjustly treated toward state
socialism, 1t is not long step in
thought for men who see the gov
eminent used by the wealthy to
think that the state should own
wealth, and use it for the people.
The social and economic justification
of progressive republicanism is that
it works against that step being con-
summated in action. Republican pro-
gressiveness politically means that
the peoples detestation of special
privilege and monopoly shall be
enacted into just and wise laws that
will remove all temptation to resort
to socialism-Spokesman-Review.

GO NORTH, YOUNG MAN.

When Horace Greeley from the
New York Tribune, years ago. gave
out his famous declaration, go
west, young man, and grow up with
the country" he rang the bell that
was heard clear across the continent
and the ring of which can still be
heard. Thousands of young men did
go west and they did grow up with
the country and the country grew up
with them.
If the Daily World can so impress
upon the young man of the present
day the possibilities in the rich and
boundless Okanogan, it shall have
accomplished one of its many duties.
The Okanogan country is the last of
the great west. It's opportunities are
many. Go to- the Okanogan, young
man, and help build up the country.

Votes Not Noise.

Congressman Miles Poindexter was
circulating among our Sumner peo-
pie on Tuesday. In the afternoon
he spoke on the street to a goodly
number of interested listeners. This
congressman has a most penetrating,
straight look, and impresses one as
fearless in his opinions. The people
should not swallow the rot broad
casted by the daily papers concern
ing his and Roosevelt's talk. 1t is
opposition thunder. People Of today
can recognize principle and right,
and they will vote silently at the
polls, although perhaps little noisy
for convenience beforehand.-Sum-

Chicago Surgeon Returns Home

DR.. and Mrs E. L. Pratt and DR..
Bartholomew of Chicago returned
last night from a trip to Lake Che
Ian, where they visited the upper
end of the lake. The party went to
Seattle this noon and will return to
Chicago next week.
Dr. Pratt bought a Sunnyslope
tract from A. G. Dallach year ago
last winter and had it put out to
orchard last year. He came out this
summer to inspect the property and
is much pleased with the investment.
He plans to come next summer again
to spend more time on Lake Chelan
which both the Doctor and Mrs. Pratt
consider the most beautiful spot they
have seen in their world wide trav-
els.
DR.. Pratt is a surgeon of world
wide fame and is head of the depart
ment of surgery in the Chicago Col
lege of Homeopathy. DR.. Bartholo-
NEW is a lady physician and first as

JUDGES
STATE CASE
Disclaim Any Intention of
Putting Up Job on
Progressives.

The election judges of Wenatchee
precinct, through L. M. Hull, have
made the following statement anent
the conflict of the standpatters and
progressives last Saturday:
'In response to the interviews
published in the Daily World yester-
day relative to the primaries of the
Wenatchee precinct, we deny sew
eral of the statements made therein,
among which are the following:
I'VE deny that only six voters were
present at this caucus, as stated in
the World, in support of which we
submit the following list of voters
who were present: l.. J. Crollard,
/. L. Ross, w. NJ. Olive, U. G. Pogue.
Frank Baker, George R. Fisher, J.
r. Taylor, NJ. V. Shepherd, ]. A. Da-
Wis, P. F. Scheble, r. H. Nowlan, e.
A. Nichols, L. NJ. Hull, J. E. Throw,
l.. R. Tice, c. M. Boyd, c. B. Fisher,
L. Finch, and others whose names
we do not recall.
1--WE deny that any effort was made
to keep the people in the dark with
reference to the time of the caucus.
The information concerning caucus
and primary was full. The board
has been charged with unfair means
toward insurgent voters. This is abb
solutely untrue. AS a matter of fact,
the board refused to allow some of
the so-called regular republicans to
vote because they had failed to regis
ter.
I'VE deny, as stated by DR.. King,
that the board refused to allow in
surgents to vote unless they would
vote the standpat Burke ticket.
Those gentlemen who rendered the
election ballot were informed that
they could take the regular ballot
and use stickers and their votes
would be counted. DR.. King spoke
under pressure of great excitement
and some allowance should be made
for such a condition of mind. Prob
ably when he cools off little he will
remember that this statement is cor
rect. 1t is not true that the dele
gates who were elected to the county
convention were selected in behalf
Of any west side senatorial cand1-
date. 1t is true, however, that all of
them are opposed to Mr.. Poindexter,
who has, through his supporters,
been endeavoring to capture dele
cations from other county conven-
lions. These delegates simply de-
clare that west side man should be
chosen, but will not go on record in
the county convention in favor OF any
candidate. There is no effort to OPP
pose insurgent republicans or bar
them from participating in the COM
ing convention. On the contrary, in
so far as expression has been heard
they are anxious that all republicans
shall work together for the common

ACTED WITHIN HIS LEGAL RIGHTS


over to the judges without any au-
thority or warrant of law" and I
deeply resent DR.. Kings attitude in
endeavoring to make my acts a
usurpation of the law, and an en-
deavor to defraLd any man of the
right to vote by misuse of the reg
istration books, and I fully believe
that the Doctor in his endeavor to
be fair and in his usual fair treat
ment will at least apologize to me
for the statements made.
AS to Mr.. Ludington's interview,
his difference with me is purely a
legal one, and 1, while do not agree
with him, hold nothing against him
for having his own views on the
proposition.
I note, though, that he states in
his interview as follows: LAS the
law states that a party who has the
qualifications of a voter is entitled
to vote at a primary and as registra-
ton is not defined by the statute as
one of the qualifications, I could not
understand why those in charge of
the election should refuse to accept
the ballots offered them by myself
and other republicans unless they
desired to be unfair and to prevent
representative vote
Section No. 1899 Pierce's Code,
relative to qualifications of voters in
such primary elections, reads as fol-
lows:
&'The qualifications of voters at
such primary elections, in addition
to those prescribed by such resolu-
ton, shall be the same as those at a
general election held under the gen.
eral election law of the state"
The general election laws of the
Section 1897 Pierces Code-Regis-
tration Necessary: mo person shall
be entitled to vote at any election in
any such city, town or precinct who
is not registered according to the
provisions of this act
While the interview credited to me
in your paper is in the main a cor
rect statement of what | did say,
without knowing l was being inter-
viewed, l intended to convey to the
reporter the fact that / did not be-
lieve that in asmuch as DR.. King, Mr..
Kemp and Mr. Ludington had never
participated in a primary, such as
held Saturday, in our state, they
were very familiar with the laws
governing the primary or of regis
tration when they came in Saturday
and took me to task for not keeping
open the registration books.
In closing, | will state that I am
just as much of a progressive repub-
lican as any man in this state, and
the charges made by some on the
streets and elsewhere that l was in a
frame-up to do or not to do GER
tain thing through the manipulations
of my office are entirely untrue and
/ believe can be traced to statements
such as are made by DR.. King in
his interview, which, when investi
gated are not borne out by the facts
or the law.
1t may be that l am entirely mis-
taken, but l did what l thought was
right in the matter and have no
fault to find with anyone who hon.
estly differs with me.
Yours for clean politics,

in primaries, and this being the case,
the primary system justifies itself
in its practical workings. AS mat
ter of fact the caucus was regarded
as a perfunctory affair and the same
thing may be said of the county con-
vention, and If the senatorial Ques-
ton Is kept out of 1t, as it should
be, no harm will result.
