STEVENS COUNTY'S POLITICAL
FAVORS.

Browns Valley Tribune From a
political point of view, Stevens coun-
ty has been pretty we'll favored as
compared with the other counties of
the district. Stevens has a supreme
court justice, now candidate for
chief justice in the person of Hon. C.
L. Brown; it has the judge of the
district court in the person of Hon.
| S. A. Flaherty. who is a candidate
for reelection, and without opposi-
tion: it also has state agricultural
college. In spite of these favors which
the neighboring counties have cheer
fully assisted in securing, when an
adjoining country had candidate
for governor, one L. C. Spooner came
forward and proclaimed that the peo-
pie of Stevens county demanded that
he stand for the same position. On
Sept. 18th the primaries were held
and the Republican and Democratic
parties of this district placed two
candidates each in nomination for
representatives. Mr.. Carlson, of
Stevens county being one. Again
MIR. Spooner comes forward and says
in substance that the people of Stevens
county have repudiate1 the primary
election and again demand that he
enter the political arena. this time
for representative. If Mr.. Spooner' s
claims are well founded, the only con-
clusion is that Stevens county is not
satisfied with all the favors in a poll
tical way it has been receiving, and
desires to gobbIe up both members of
the Legislature to be elected in this
district. But we believe the good
people of Stevens are as fair-minded
as those of the other counties and
will be thoroughly satisfied with one
representative Mr.. Carlson who
was fairly nominated at the primaries
and who stands on progressive plat.

POLLS OPEN 6 TO 9.
Hours for Voting the Same as
at the Primary.

Considerable confusion has always
resulted from the changes that were
made from time to time in the hours
of opening and closing the polls ON
election day and also from the fact
that the hours for opening and closing
at the primary were different from
those for the general election.
The last legislature therefore made
the hours for the general election the
same as those for the primary, from
o'clock in the morning until 9
O'Clock in the evening. This will do
away with the confusion and will also
give opportunity for more of the vot-
ers who are busy to find time to go to
the polls, and heavier vote should
be cast.
So far as the soliciting of votes is
concerned, the election day will be as
quiet as was the primary. Ii is not
only unlawful to give away cigars,
but not even the distribution of cam
paign card is permitted on election
day, nor is candidate or his friends
permitted to convey voters TO the
polls.

Care for the First Teeth.

Because the first set of teeth of a
child come out easily, many parents
think little of them and laugh at the
idea that these need attention. But
it is the first set of teeth which de-
termine whether the permanent teeth
shall come in straight and make well
formed lips.
The teeth should not be pulled out
until the incoming second set has
forced them out. They are needed tC
give direction tc the tender teeth tc
come and perform very valuable
Office. They should be brushed as
carefully as the permanent set and
kept from decay. Many mans face
has been spoiled because his baby
teeth were pulled too soon.

Governor Spoke Here.

The special train bearing the Re-
publican state candidates stopped here
for about fifteen minutes on Tuesday.
The weather was so bad that speeches
could not be made from the train so
the crowd gathered inside the depot.
there short addresses were made by
Governor Eberhart. Railroad Commits
sioner Chas. Elm quist and James
Manahan. candidate for congressman
atlarge.
This most unique way of cam
paigning. Opportunity was given for
the voters to see and meet all the
candidates. and the speeches were
long enough to leave few effective
thoughts. Then time was called and
away the train hurried to the next
station
Governor Eberhart spoke especially
of this being an agricultural state
and that agricultural education, de-
velopment and betterment were the
things of most Importance. This is
his platform and he says that if
elected ne will have the endorsement
of the people back Of the recommends
ations which he makes to the legisla-
ture. MIR. Elmquist spoke of the ex-
tensive work of the railroad and ware
house commission, and Mr.. Manahan
spoke for the support of the candidates
nominated at TIE primary, especially
the Republican candidates for the
legislature nominated by the primaries
in this district.

TOM HARRIS DEAD.
Found in Dying Condition at
Baltimore Aug. 3Oth.

Thomas F. Harris. son of DR.. J.
W. Harris, of this city, was found
in dying condition in Baltimore on
August 30th, and died on the way to
the hospital. The exact manner of
his death is not known, except that
his skull was fractured, which may
have been due to blow on the head
but was probably due to an accident
in boarding a train.
Tom Harris has been taking a
medical course at the University of
Pennsylvania at Philadelphia. Dur
ing the summer vacation he was doing
hospital work in Philadelphia, and
later was given a place on the medi-
cal staff of one of the big liners for a
trip to Europe His father here had
last heard from him at Liverpool on
Aug. 18th, and he then expected to
start on a return trip to this country
the next day.
AS time passed along. his father
and relatives and friends in the East
began making search for him. and
have been as it now for considerable
time, but were not successful until
the first part of this week.
BY getting IN correspondence with
number of Toms schoolmates, it
is finally ascertained that he had re-
turned to Philadelphia from Liverpool.
and then had gone with number of
his schoolmates to Baltimore. The
boys had intended to 90 to their sew
eral homes before the close of the va
cation, but Tom decided that he
ould not, have time to make the re.
turn to Morris, and so separated from
! he rest with the intention of return
ing to Philadelphia.
At this point. all trace was lost.
The chief detective of the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad became interested,
however, and he found that a young
man answering Toms description was
killed in the railroad yards on August
3oth. The young man had died or
the way to the hospital without re.
gaining consciousness. and as he was
unidestified. had been buried. The
body was exhumed and taken to Phil,
iFadeipbiagand there absolutely identified
by friends and relatives.
The remains were cremated a,
Philadelphia on Monday and the ashes
will be sent to Ortonville to be buried
beside those of his mother there.

Republican nomination and then he
sought the Republican nomination for
governor. He made dismal show
ing in the primaries. The Republican
and Democratic parties both chose
candidates for the Legislature, thus
crossing the SpoOner plans. He had
petitions circulated to have his name

falnDoWS IN the CLOUDS, TIE people OF
the district have been moving along
in the usual practical way. and, going
upon the supposltion that Mr.. Spooner
was candidate for governor in good
faith, other candidates for the legisla.
ture have been selected. Over in Mr..
Spooner's home county. G. P. Carlson,
prominent farmer. who is clean.
capable, upright gentleman, was
selected, with practically no opposi-
tion, as good man to succeed Mr..
Spooner. Now that he has failed to
grasp the political plums higher up
that he unsuccessfully sought. MIR.
Spooner asks the voters of the district
to cast Mr.. Carlson aside and again
give him possession of the office of
representative. which he had cast
aside.
Is such a proceeding fair or Just ?
Has Mr.. Spooner any mortgage on the
office or on the district? Is he the
only man gifted with legislative quail
fcations? Does Mr.. Spooner really
believe that the district will lose it's
place on the map when he ceases to
occupy legislative seat?
Mr.. Spooner's demands are neither
reasonable nor fair. They are asburd,
and can have no basis other than
pure selfishness and burning desire
for Office.
Having known Mr.. Spooner ;ntim-
ately for many years, and knowing
that his ability, if properly applied,
would accomplish much for district
and state. we Loyalty supported him
for three campaigns. If the Gazette
Reporter believed that the public
would benefit by. his reelection. it
would again support his candidacy,
but the past two years have con-
vinced this paper. as it has many
others, that personal ambition has
becoma Mr.. Spooner's guiding star
and over-sbadows the interests OF
those whom he was chosen to repre-.
sent. When man seeks politica.
advancement more rapid than his con.
stituents are disposed to grant, he il
lpretty apt to form alliances and be,
come tangled up with combination:
that destroy his usefulness.
! The situation, it seems to US,
clearly justifes three conclusions
jFirst--Stevens county is entitled to {
trepresentativ Secondly reason
of his high standing rs citizen ant
| the further important reason that he
Twas selected at the recent primarie;
as Stevens county's candidate. Mr..
Carlson is clearly entitled to the sup.
Iport of the voters of the district.
EThird-That Mr.. Spooner has not
IDeen unfairly treated in any parti'
icular ); that he is practically demand
! ing that the district accept him as die
tator of its political affairs; that ht
occupies political bed of his owl
making and if he finds it uncomfort

miles away, in legislative halls and

The men who went about gathering
in these names of petitioners made
no scruple of telling the voters that
they could vote for both Mr.. Carlson
the regularly nominated candidate,
and also for Mr.. Spooner, thereby
disregarding the rights of Grant coun-
ty to place on the legislative dele
cation. If Mr.. Spooner wins, and
Grant county is deprived of represent.
alton, Mr.. Spooner and Mr.. Spooner's
agents must bear the full responsible
ity In their search for names, they
thus not only ruthlessly sacrificed the
political interests of a county which
has always befriended Stevens. but
they accepted the names of men who
had voted at the PRIMARIES, of men
who are not citizens of the United
States. of non-residents. Duplica-
tions were permitted. Mr.. Spooner's
tenants were solicited whatever their
political belief, and the further
length to which they went in their
frantic search for names would, if
told, astound every law, abiding citi-
zen.
Like when the petitions were being
circulated for the governorship last
spring, men absolutely refused to
sign, but finally yielded to the soil.
citation OF the man circulating the
petition. stated they would sign as a
personal favor but would not vote
for Spooner. Yet these names were
accepted. and it is little wonder that
Spooner did not have as many votes
in the district as he had names to his
petitions. His total vote for governor
| was GIG, and yet in his speech last
spring he said that ''more than a
thousand had signed in thest coun-
ties.
His being petitioned to run for
governor was all stage play. and the
voters of the district know it now.
Even the ropes tb at pulled the painted
scenery were apparent to the casual
observer Where on the cold dawn
of the morning after the primary
were the thousands Of petitioners in

that and the other thing? Where

and the support of the. MINISTERS of
the gospel, and the. support of the

confidence to friends.)
The stage play Of last spring has
been repeated in the stage play of this
fall.
| But not only has Stevens county
repudiated Mr.. Spooner and the very
men who were solicited to sign his
petitions refused to attend his meet.
