Mistake No. 8

He made further mistake in bringing himself out
candidate for minister to China, having his pict
ure printed in the Seattle Times and the statement
made that he had been officially offered the appoint
ment of minister to China when the records in the de-
partment of state contains official notice or letters
of any kind or description that any such offer
ever made thus:
November g. 1909
" John E. HUMPHREYS, ESQ.,,
602 Mutual Life Bldg,
Seattle, Washington.
S1R:-In response to your inquiry of the Both utmo
as to whether Judge Thomas Burke, Of Seattle, was
offered by the president the appointment of minister
to China, only say that the files of the depart
ment do disclose whether not such tender
made. I am. sir,
Your obedent servant
P C. KNOX"
1t will thus be by the statement of the
tary of state that there not a communication
passed from the department of state to Judge Thomas
Burke in regard to the matter and it was serious
bunder and mistake to create the impression that the
president was anxious to get his consent to the ap
pointnent when as matter of fact, there is rec
ord of any correspondence between the department of
state and Judge Thomas Burke upon the subject as
shown by the letter.
Mistake No. 2
If Judge Thomas Burke, from the time he was
young man until after he was 80 years of age believ
ed in free trade was opposed to protective tariff
believed in states rights and believed that the Repub
ican party wrong during all those times, now
comes out and admits that he mistaken all the
time he is either of extremely poor judgment or
man unworthy OF to be trusted.
If he believed that railroad commission bill was
wrong and that special interests should control the
rights of the people, and that because he wants to
get into the United States senate by the vote of the
common people, claim that special interests have been
controlling the legislation of the country and it ought
to be stopped, when it is welknown fact that it
his corporations under his advice and in connection
with him that did control the legislation of this state
then he unworthy to be trusted It is said of wit
nessses that the meanest witness on earth is one
who turns states evidence and in this Judge Burke
has turned states evidence and has gone into the
camp of the enemy and is attempting to drag the farm
ers, business men and aborng of the state of
Washington into the mouth of the cormorant
Mistake No. 8
Another mistake he has made was to take within
his counses Henry Mcbride, who in 1903 1904 prior
to and subsequent to that time, with all the power that
he possessed attempted to rally the people, the
farmers, merchants and aborng men of this country

that Judge Thomas Burke has

culated throughout the county to
the effect that the secret springs
which are moving the business is
a design" to abolish the court,
and little later on re-establish it
with myself as Judge" The fact is
that these rumors were in circula-
ton long before the local appeared,
and the local may have accentuated
the rumor, which was circulated
soon after the appearance Of the
Grand Jury presentments of the
May term of Lee Superior Court,
when one OF the grand jurors Of
that term, and the one who is re-
ported to have introduced the reso-
luton in the Grand Jury, said in
substance in the presence of several
parties that he was not caring so
much about abolishing the court, as
he did to prevent the Judge from
getting the salary that he was hav-
ing. The mover Of that resolution,
if we are correctly informed, is a
close friend Of and when serving as
a grand juror, is closely identified
with one near" to Mr.. Martin,
and, this same one who is near to
Mr.. Martin has persistently opposed
the judge Of the City Court and the
salary Of the judge, and, prior to
May court, admitted that he would
do all he could to abolish it. Mr..
Martin will admit, that, under the
law, the Grand Jury Of the fall
term 1909 was required to fix the
salary Of the judge Of the City Court
for ensuing four years. This Grand
Jury had before it statement from
the clerk Of that court of what It
had done from April s, 1908 to Oc-
tober 30, 1909; it also had a SINH
lar statement as to the work of the
Superior court Of the county for the
same period; it also had list of
the salaries Of the judges of the City
Courts Of a number of the counties
near Lee. / am told that they
gave it careful consideration and re-

Since the proposition was adopted
Thursday the delegates who voted to
include the judiciary in the provisions
of the clause have been subjected to
severe criticism, not only by their po-

their own party and sections of the
Democratic press. A vigorous move

to procure a reconsideration of this OBJ

and radical leaders said tonight that
the pressure brought to bear made them

IN FURNACE AFTER FIGHT

named Moraru, living at Ploesti, in
Roumania, murdered his wife by bak-
ing her alive. He came home intox-
icated in the evening, sent away his
apprentices, whom he declared were
spelling the bread. and tried to finish
the baking himself
His wife scolded him for being too
drunk to work and tried to take the
bread out of the oven herself. Moraru
seized the, opportunity to push his
wife bodily into the oven and close
the door on her. The woman's shrleks
brought the apprentices back, but the
baker attacked them with poker
and drove them out of the house.
When they returned with the police
the woman was dead.
