Judge w. w. Black of Everett,
democratic candidate for United States
senator spent Wednesday among the
voters OF Leavenworth. Judge Black
is in every way worthy of the conf
dence and respect OF the voters OF all
parties, and will in our opinion win the
nomination on the democratic ticket.
We say this Of Judge Black with the
present intention OF supporting Mr.
Falconer on the progressive ticket for
the same position. We make up our
mind of Judge Blacks fitness because
he was repeatedly elected superior
court Judge OF Snohomish county, first
before the non-partisan judiciary law
was adopted in a county that has al
ways been overwhelmingly republican.
