WOULD USE FAWCETT PEOPLE
TO SAVE ROYS' FROM DEFEAT

Some of the Roys people are erdeavoring to save
their man by the following method:
An effort is being made by Roys friends to create
sentiment among the >FaWcett people, to vote for
IRoys as matter of sspite". -, -,@@....
"Foist him back with Seymour has been the cry
that has gone forth direct from Roys own crowd It

against man regardless Of who may have supported
him in the past.

Iclared themselves unalterably against Mr.. Roys
Roys' friends know this and are endeavoring to use
1.-THE Fawcett people as means Of aiding Roys.
Tacoma's decency seems almost united against
|Roys. The main object to be accomplished is pre-
vention OF R0ys entering at first election major
ty of all votes cast must be secured by the man who
can win out at the primary vote cast for any man
but Roys will aid in running him into at least sec
|ond election
solid Royal Arch support and some North End
laid is banked upon to carry Roys through.
So far as the Improvement clubs are concerned
they seem to be unit against Roys.
Every man and woman who wishes to aid in the
cleanliness and decency of Tacoma should case vote
against Roys. Whatever you do, try and get to the
ballot box and vote

This is highly amusing
because it is town gossip
as regards the hatred
which exists toward Ray
Freeland from those most
strongly in favor of Roys.
But Freeland also is cal
lowed to return" as long
as Roys gets his job back
again.
This talk of "letting
them all go back" amounts
in cleverness to efforts of
the Roys people to create
a sentiment that "Roys

voted for Seymour.

How the Situation
Looks at 1 1 tn Hour

Before leaving for the smelter
where he was to make an address
at noon today, Clarence Parker
expressed confidence that he will
at least be second man against
Roys, If that individual stays in
the race. Roys' strength lies
mainly in solid Royal Arch sup
port. His friends are working
tooth and nail to create a senti-
ment favoring return of the en-
tire commission.
Both Petit and Parker adher-
ents claim that either man would
stand best show of defeating Roys
at second election. Petit is
well liked by many and little or
no criticism has been directed
toward him. Parker by many is
picked as the natural candidate
because of his heavy run last
year. His friends believe that he
should not have lost strength and
his work on the liability commit
tee has made him new friends. 1t
is a question whether Jamieson's
mail campaign was well taken.
Barth expects to run strong.
Mr.. Clayton, candidate against
Owen Woods, was regarded as a
fairly strong candidate until he
proved a Seymour man after many
of his union friends understood
that he was at least taking no part
in the campaign. This fact un-
doubtedly hurt him. even though
!, Woods was complained of by Ia
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1911-05-01

Dor in connection with some of
the initial work on the municipal
dock.
Although much animosity ex-
lists toward Clayton as a result of
his mayoralty election action, this
paper Is inclined to believe that
Clayton would make a good COM
missioner IL elected.
Mr.. Weeks seems to be more
favored than Mr.. Drake In the
race against Lawson.
Freeland has many friends and
the fact that prize fight which
he advocated against had much to
do with eagerness to recall him,
may result in his strongest op-
ponent, Mr.. Lamborn, having a
hard time to defeat him. Free
land Is honest. The charge made
most openly against him is alleged
to be lack of self-assertion. This
is probably true. Tomorrow VIII
decide whether he should be re-
called on these grounds.

ance in Office such as the city has
not known for years; with the
street railway company managing
his campaign and the saloons
lined up for him solid, 1t is not
likely that Roys will ever fool the
people into either voting for him
or even staying at home to allow
his cohorts to put him in by de-
fault.
A desperate eleventh hour cam
paign Is being made today by the
saloons and special interests
Ritter Wilkeson, the man whc
worked against Fern Hill for the

town through Roys.
1t has even been suggested that
the whole recall be dropped. The
Roys people are even willing to

to create an idea that the recall
Is going too far and thus persuade
the people to stay at home and not
vote and save him from public
condemnation.
Saturday night Tacoma was a
saturnalia OF vice such as has not
been known for many day. The
vice elements seemed to be cele-
brating in anticipation of a return
of Roys and a new lease of life
Opera Alley was a mass of fallen
women who boldly went out on
the streets soliciting. The police
department under Roys made nc
effort to curb them. Reports say
that outfitters are fixing up the
Sandbeng joint again to resume
business and there are some girls
there already.
