J. D. Bassett, formerly state senator from
Ritzville, now Spokane capitalist has been
a Seattle visitor the most of the week and
while his visit to the city is nothing out of
his ordinary business routine, yet he is deep
ly interested in the candidacy of Harry
Rosenhaupt for congress from at large,
he was in Seattle feeling the pub
lie pulse as to Rosenhaupt's chances. He
was twice elected to the houes of representa-
tives of the Washington legislature and once
to the senate and it can be said without fear
of successful contradiction that, no member
of the legislature did more effective work
than he. His committee work commanded
the admiration and respect of the entire

M. P. Hurd, who is an old time political
war horse Of Skagit county, who was for
many years close political crony Of Henry
Mcbride, spent few days in Seattle this
week, which must have been more or less
responsible for the rumor that, Mcbride
would soon announce his candidacy for the
Republican gubernatorial nomination. Hen
ry Mcbride s intention Of entering the CUB
ernatorial fight is perhaps more political con-
lecture than real facts, but he is a man with
strong personel and if he goes into the
fight and Case withdraws from the fight, as
it is reported he intends to do both Governor
Hay and John G.. Lawrence had better look
to their laurels or he will be it. lie will have
a strong lieutenant in M. 2. Hurd.

THE TELEPHONE TRUST.

1f1EI 1ONG ARO0A'
OF course the Sunset Telephone Company
is willing to do anything reasonable, !" but
that means anything that is reasonable from
the telephone company standpoint When
it gets a complete conopoly of the telephone
business in Seattle then it will be unreason-
able for it to give to its patrons telephone
service for less than So monthly for resident
phones and $12 for business phones. AS has
been previously pointed out in these columns
the local officials of the Sunset Telephone
Company have already devised hundred
and one different ways and means to rob its
patrons to the tune of multiplied thousands
of dollars each year and it is doing it, and
wherever the local officials of the telephone
trust are as successful in grating the pub
lie as these in Seattle have been In the IN
terest of the trust such a station at once
becomes one which requires $4,000 man
to preside over and the rise or fall OF his fu-
ture salary depends on whether he
can do more toward robbing the pa
trans than is already in operation or
keep it up to it's present lick When
Mauface McMlcken Says W GHC uICih-
bers of the city council "You are incon-
sstent in your actions toward the Sunset
Telephone Company, which, in less polite
language is they are damphools, because they
do not permit him to dictate to them so as
to give the telephone company the city with
a fence around it, he is parrot-like repeating
what his money masters have told him to say.
Maurace McMicken never works for any
thing or anybody but some corporation king
or some illegal trust Maurace McMicken
would not hesitate to turn over every vested
right of the state, county and city to cor

his soft peddling It was Maurace McMicken

to buy newspaper, who, after the thing was
partially tied up, peremptorally demanded
of the friend half interest for making the
deal, but finally took a quarter when the

throw ten-year-old bull by the tall then
they will rue the day they ever did Let the

Dan Landon, who was recently elected
president of the Roosevelt Club of King
county, wants a presidential preferential
primary held in the county and he is not
alone in it as every Roosevelt supporter IS
Of like mind Whether Teddy or Taft wins
the fight is of little general consequence, but
the people seem to want preferential prl-
mary and if they want it and demand it,
they should have it. Let the majority rule
regardless Of the man it may want Tor its
standard bearer Senator Landon is the
compromise candidate for the presidency of
the Roosevelt club of the county and a most
excellent compromise is he. He won the
state senatorship by having good friends IN

well as successful attorneys of the King

George Fletcher Cotterill is now mayor Of
Seattle, and one of the ambitions of his life
has been realized The attainment of this
political ambition, however, does not quench
his desire to be governor, United States SEN
ator and, perhaps, president of the United
States. Mr. Cotterll took the oath of of
flee in the Grand Opera House in the pres
ence of large concourse of admiring cit
liens, and made most favorable impression.
Mayor Dilling reviewed his foundation work
in starting the city out on businesslike ave
nues. after it had been taken out of the con-
troll of the vicious element and it was full of
good points and made a splendid showing.
Representing and speaking for the ex-mayor,
Judge Ronalds short get-together nOn-par
tisan talk made hit with all present. At
the close of his brief address he administered
the oath of office to Mr.. Cotterill who amid
laundering applause stood like statue that
those present could see him as he was and
see him as he really felt at that supreme
moment of his life If there were any one
in that great concourse Of voters who had
voted against Mr.. Cotterill on the grounds
that he was a faddist, his speech schould
have been quite sufficient to have complete
ly disabused their minds of any such mis-
apprehensions In the senate Mr. Cotterill
was not the whole show as some of his
campaign enthusiasts repeatedly declared,
but he was conservative courteous and con
scientious, which made him much more pop
ular than the average man doing time" in
the legislature 1t is the concensus of opin-
ion among all classes of citizens in Seattle
that Mr.. Cotterill will continue to build on
the foundation so we'll laid by Mr.. Dillmg
and with the Seattle spirit united and work
ing in perfect unison with him there is no
doubt of the success of his administration

FIGHTER rs
WINNER

Willie Krug OF Hammond put Bat
thing Smith of Oklahoma to sleep in
their scheduled six round bout before
a ST. Louis Athletic Club last night,
handing the Oklahomian a severe lac
ing. Krug is now sparring partner of
Leo Kelly and since leaving Hammond
q year ago. has developed into q
youngster of considerable class.
The bout last night was cheduled to
go six rounds. but ended in the third,
when Smith was sent to dreamland
after taking the count of nine three
times in that round. Krug has gained
the reputation as q clever boxer among
southern fight fans and now tipping
the beam at 122 pounds, should in a
few years make the middleweight
class. He will return to Hammond on
a visit during the holidays.

GOOD ATTRACTIONS
AT ORPHEUM

Paul Kleist, the clever comedian who
opened the Orpheum theatre last win
ter, is back for another engagement.
1t was this attraction which made the
people Of Hammond gasp to think that
SO much money could be spent on a
bill that sold for 10 and 20 cents and
resulted in a thousand prophesies that
the Allardts would never keep up that
class of attractions.
Kleist is still very good, but there
have been great many attractions
that have been seen during the year
that are just as good. The vaudeville
bill this week is very excellent.
There are four jugglers the &dlers,
who are excellent, and the bill is very
well balanced. Mutt and Jer" at the
Hammond theatre Sunday will attract
a large ATTENDANCE.
