Though Governor Lister was the
guest of honor and principal speaker
of the evening, other Democrats Joined
in the jollification. F. G. Blakeslee,
president of the Wilson-Marshall club
which had charge of the affair, was
the first speaker, welcoming the gov

the city, and introducing Mr.. Vance
as the evenings postmaster.
In his usual witty vein the latter
added much merriment to the evening.

KEEP INSTITUTIONS OUT or POLITICS

the capital city is extending to me to-
night" Mr.. Lister began his talk, "and
can only hope its residents will have
the same kindly feeling toward me
when | move away from here at the
close Of my administration as l feel
they do now.
Il want to thank my Republican
friends for the work they did for me
during the campaign" he continued
referring particularly to DR.. Cove of
Tacoma, one of the speakers of the
evening. That is the kind of work
that counts. And as one of the other
speakers has said, the new element in
politics-the women-did have some.
thing to do with the result, and want
to say to you that without the support
of the women voters of the state l
could not have been elected.
Don't think for minute that the
women voters do not cut a figure in
our politics, and from now on they will
cut a greater figure. We did not make
the slightest mistake when we passed
that amendment"
He proceeded to narrate few CAM
paign anecdotes, continuing: During
the campaign l probably made fewer
promises than any other candidate who
ever ran for governor. There is only
one promise l did make and that was
to conduct the states business econom-
ically, to see that no money was spent
unwisely if l could in any way pre-
vent it, and to demand efficiency and
economy.
II don't believe there is any use of
a man going from one end of the state
to the other and promising everything
everybody wants, just to be elected. ]

me for my views on a certain matter.
told them l would investigate it.
They told me l couldn't have their
votes unless l pledged myself then.
told them they were talking to the
wrong candidate, that they should go
to one of the others.
"The time has come and l believe
the present administration has not
acted unwisely, when permanent cap
itol buildings should be erected in
Olympia" he continued, referring to
the pet project of Olympians. 1.-THE
work ought to be continued along the
right lines, for without doubt with
that location we can have magnificent
unit Of capitol buildings which will be
a credit to any state"
Declaring himself to be a good roads
enthusiast, he asserted work should be
carried on Systematically. the basis
being whether two loads of farm pro-
duce could pass on the same road and
not whether two automobiles could.
He endorsed the Pacific highway pro-
ject and asserted the work should be
begun from the business centers and
extended out, SO each portion of the
road would be useful as constructed,
adding, II don't believe In building q
road that starts no place and ends no
place."
He repeated the statements that
honesty. efficiency and ability would be
the criterions of his appointments. de-
claring them to stand ahead of Darty

consider.

HAMILTON. Bermuda, Dec. 6.--Gov-
ernor Wilson is beginning to hear
from the Democrats of the United
States in protest against the appoint
ment Of William Jennings Bryan as
secretary of state or to any position
in the cabinet.
Most of the letters are protest
against Mr.. Bryan's becoming the
premier of the cabinet and some Of
them are said to 60 into minute de-
tails as to the reasons the three-time
candidate for the presidency should
not be given so important place in
the administration.
Some of the letters are said to ad-
wise strongly that Mr.. Bryan be rele.
gated to the rear, SO far as the Wilson
administration is concerned. In addi-
ton to the letters are many editorial
clippings from American newspapers
protesting against the selection of Mr..
Bryan.
Governor Wilson has not said a
single word about his cabinet or re-
garding the men he is likely to name,
| but it is believed that the letters and
clippings of protest came in the nature
of surprise to him, as he did not
realize the proposal that Mr.. Bryan
| become secretary of state had aroused
so much interest in the United States.
No one knows how these letters will
affect Governor Wilson or whether 1t

Swamp-Root. His condition was such
that he was confined to his bed and
words cannot tell how he suffered, but

never been SO artistically decorated as
on last evening. About the room
were placed groups of tall palms and
ferns. The high windows were fes-
TONED with greenery and the ferns
were fastened in the center with a
mammoth bow of pink tulle.
All the appointments were in green
and pink. The stairway was festoon-
ed with green leaves and various
kinds of foliage. At the newell post at
the foot of the stairs was fastened a
pretty bow. The balcony to the west
Of the hall was arranged with the
greenery, it being festooned in such
manner as to give the appearance
of vines. At the east end of the hall
on the platform, where the orchestra
was stationed, screen had been
made of the palms and ferns. At eth
err end of the orchestra pit were
white pedestals on which were placed
vases filled with pink flowers. Many
handsome and elegant gowns were
worn by the guests. The party was one
of the most brilliant ever given in
Richmond. There were many out-of-
town guests.
The dancing began at nine o'clock
and was continued until a late hour.
During the intermission the guests
were hidden to the banquet hall where
