The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1911-09-15

Mr.. Trimble is proud of the fact
that he has always been an enthusiastic
advocate Of woman suffrage and when
the women of the state of Washington
were battling for human rights and
equal justice he was to be found in the
thickest Of the fight. He is the son Of
Kentucky father, who, in spite of
local conditions, openly fought against
the principal Of human chattels, and
when that question had been settled
forever and the father laid to rest, the
son took up the work so we'll begun by
the parent, and made an aggressive
fight for equal rights and justice for all
and without regard to color or previous
condition, and it is perfectly natura
for such man to throw himself into
the gateway to give to the mothers
sisters of the men, who made it posi-
BILE for this to be, THE land of the
free, and the home OF the brave" not
only in theory, but in fact, equal rights
for all.
The resources Of the State OF Wash
ington are so varied and likewise num-
erous that there need not be any ser
ious conflict between labor and capital
for the next fifty years, and ere that
time, it is earnestly hoped, that salts
factory solution to the mooted labor
question will be discovered. Mr..
Trimble, however, has always main
tanned that the highest wages possible
should be paid to the laborer whether
such be skilled or otherwise. In all
troubles arising between the employer
and employee, he believes in the arbi-
tration of the differences, and he fur
ther believes that unless such course
be pursued sooner or later a serious
conflict between capital and labor will
be precipitated. He argues, all men
are born equal, and when troubles arise
between them it is their duty as men
brothers to reason together. each Civ
ing and taking that the troubles may
be amicably adjusted.
Should the friends Of Mr.. Trimble,
who are seeking his consent to use his
name in connection with the next re-
publican gubernatorial nomination and
election, finally succeed in their under
taking, and should he ever be COVER
nor of the state of Washington, the
poor man the same as the rich man
would always receive warm welcome
at his office, and the advice of the
workingman as eagerly sought by him
as that Of the wealthy man. In the
development OF the latent resources of
the state, he would take both labor and
capital into his confidence and endea-
vor to act for the best interest of all
concerned. 1t requires the harmon
ious working of labor and capitol to as
sure the speedy development of this
or any other state, territory or commun-
ity, and if the two work at cross pur-
poses the development is bound to be
slow, if at all.
VIM. Pitt Trimble is a western
Washington man and it appears to wes-
tern Washington citizens it would be a
fair plan to elect western Washington
man as governor, taking into consider
alton that we now have two United
States senators from the east side.
VIM. Pitt Trimble has always affili-
ated with the republican party, but in
spite Of his party affiliations he has al
ways shown more or less political indie
pendence and refused to accept the
yellow dog" theory, and support vi
cious men for Office because they
claim to be republicans. He is still OF
the opinion that men should not be-
come so party blind as to elect per-
sons to office, when they have reasons
to believe such persons will use the
Office as means of imposing upon the
taxpayers. All things being equal he
believes in electing the party candi-
date.
There will be no disparaging re-
marks from VIM. Pitt Trimble or his
campaign committee regarding any
other candidates; there will be no
undertaking, there will be no brick
bats thrown; his campaign will be con-
Quoted by honest, dignifed, conserva-
tive, clear and concise specific facts.
