A difference of opinion has aris-
en- over the state as to the proper
day on which the county auditor
should begin to receive filings of
declarations of candidacy by office
seekers. In some counties the 18th
of July has been fixed. in others
the 18th. while in Spokane county
Auditor Butler and prosecutor Pugh
have agreed that the 15th-Friday,
is the proper day.
In order to be on the safe side
Auditor Butler has written to At
torney General Bell asking for an
opinion as to the right day to be-
gin accepting the filings and fees
of the candidates. He expects a
reply before Friday, but should
none come, he will adhere to the
day originally agreed up, the 18th.
The period for filing notices of
candidacy will close August 10, or
30 days later. The last day for

COMMENTS ON OPPOSITION.
Il see that the OPPOSITION candi-
dates for United States senator
have gotten out a little card, CIV
ing what the newspapers said about
my visit to Mr.. Roosevelt and then
what Roosevelt said afterward.
They are trying to make capital out
of an incident for which am in no
way responsible. The announce
ment that went forth in the news
papers of the country to the effect
that Roosevelt had endorsed my
candidacy was sent out by the
newspaper reporters without my
knowledge or consent, as Mr..
Roosevelt afterward said When
the opposition tried to make capital
out of this incident it shows how
hard they are pressed for campaign
material.
Colonel Roosevelt is a progress
sive and will be with the progress
sive movement in this campaign.
He is the father of prOgressiveism
and is proud to see the movement
for better government grow"
ENJOYS GOOD SCRAP.
Poindexter was assured that the
senatorial scrap was fight to the
finish. and asked If he was ready
to take up the gage of battle
thrown down by the opposition.
Il enjoy a good scrap, especially
if it is conducted in the proper
manner, fair and aboveboard. But
if it comes to case Of hammer
and tongs the opposition will find
me in the game with them. We
realize, an dso do the reactionary
element. that the people are with us
in this fight, and that the cause of
progressive ideas in national af.
fairs will win out il the people are
permitted to express their prefer
ence at the polls, unhampered by
side issues. Having no argument,
the opposition must necessarily re-
sort to peculiar tactics to win.

The best political organization in
eastern Washington today is the
group of Spokane women directing
the campaign for equal suffrage.
They already have four speakers
in the field and are carrying on
their work with the men that listen
to political talks when delivered

While the women are not mixing

watching the men who aspire to fill
those places. And when a woman
goes home at night and registers a
kick with her partner about the
stand of Mr.. So and Co on the sui

count, and don't you overlook it.
