GEORGE TURNER
ON THE HARB0R
Distinguished Visitor Has a
Noteworthy Record in His
tory of the Nation
UPHOLDS THE PRESIDENT
In His Announcement, Judge
Turner Makes Manly State
ment of His Position

Judge George Turner, former United
States senator, and candidate for the
Democratic nomination for that ex.
alted position this year, was a visitor
in the city yesterday, in the interest
of his candidacy. In making his for
NAL declaration as candidate, last
March, Judge Turner said:
ITO the Democratic voters of the
state of Washington:
"At the suggestion of many friends
in different parts of the state | have
determined to become a candidate
for the senate of the United States
on the Democratic ticket at the COM
ing election election in November,
subject to the action of the Demo-
cratic voters at the primary election
to be held in September.
'In making this announcement and
soliciting the support of my Demo-
cratic co-workers it is proper for me
to say that stand on the Democratic
national platform and each and every
plank thereof, adopted at Baltimore;
that | am in entire sympathy with
the present administration of the ma.
tional government, which came into
power on that platform, and that if
nominated and elected to the senate
l shall be loyal supporter of Presi-
dent Wilson in all policies calculated
to carry out and make effective the
progressive principles of the national
Democratic party. While not forget
ting at any time that l am a Demo-
crat, l shall work for the best inter.
ests of every section of the state and
endeavor to be what a senator ought
, to be-the faithful representative Of
all the people Of all the state.
I'm this latter connection I beg to
add that am in sympathy with and
bound by every provision of the or.
ganic law of the state, including the
recent changes therein, and also by
the legislation of recent years in the
direction of the social and industrial
betterment of our people, and so far
as the principles thereof may come
within the purview of national legisla-
ton and be affected thereby my voice
and my vote will always be in favor
of the maintenance of their integrity
at home and their advancement
abroad.
Finally, should the choice of the
Democrats of this state fall on some
one other than myself-and many good
Democrats have been mentioned who
are eminently worthy the honor-I
shall support him at the election with
the same loyalty and zeal that l have
supported all Democratic candidates,
local and national, since | have had
the honor to be member of the
Democratic party"
GEORGE TURNER.
Senator Turner spoke last evening
at Heron and G streets, and later in
Hoquiam, to large and appreciative
audiences.

Judge Turner is a native of Mis-
souri, and came to Washington from
Alabama in 1884 as judge of the SUI
preme court of the then territory. He
was elected member of the consti-
tutional convention in 1889, from Spo-
kane county, and was chairman of the
judiciary committee of that body. He
was elected to the United States SEN
ate in 1897 as Silver Republican,
by the furion legislature of that year.
but later on during his senatorial SER
vice, announced himself a Democrat
and has ever since been member of
that party.
In 1903, on the conclusion of his
term of service in the senate, he was
appointed by President Roosevelt on
the Alaska boundary commission with
Senators Elihu Root and Henry Cabot
Lodge, the English commissioners
consisting of Lord Alverstone, Chief
Justice of England, Sir Louis Jett of
Montreal, and the Hon. A. B. Ayles-
worth Of Toronto. The commission
met in London, and after hearing ex.
tended argument, settled the Alaska
boundary in accordance with the con-
tention of the United States.
In 1909 he was appointed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt leading counsel for the
United States in the Northeastern
Fisheries Arbitration at the Hague.

THE COLLEGE BAND CONCERT

The concert by the military band of
the State College. under the leader.
ship of Prof. Christensen, proved one
of the most enjoyable events of the
year.
The program was opened with the
martial brilliancy of the Schubert Mill
tary March which was Immediately fol-
lowed by the magnificent Overture
from Tampa which Is played by SC
many professional bands, yet has
never been performed with more free
dom and effect than upon this occasion
The Grieg Peer Gynt Suite" impaired
to the program a modern and oriental
coloring and showed their skill in a
different kind of work. Especially to
be commended was the splendid en-
semble in "Aase's Death" and the or.
c%hestration of "In the Hall of the
Mountain King"
The inspiring Scotch Medley and
final marches with the picturesque An
vii Chorus were given a spirited per-
Torrance and retained the enthusiasm
of the audience to the close of the pro-
gram.
Mr.. VIM. A. Thieck, of Minneapolis,
added to the enjoyment of the program
in his two trumpet numbers. His per-
Torrance was n Of a ~brilliancy
and skill. His graceful runs and trills,
difficult feats of tonguing and ex-
puisite high tones were done with so
little apparent effort that they added
much to the beauty of the whole.
Mr.. Hedge, in his Aria Lend Me
Thine Aid" found opportunity to dis.
play both power and beauty Of tone.
His work in both recitative and lyric
passages was distinguished by clarity
of tone and proper placing as well as
dramatic Interpretation. Mr.. Hedge
seemed equally at ease. whether his
work be lyric. c%oloratura or dramatic,
whether 1t requires tonal beauty OF
power or any combination Of these
characteristics.
MI. Christensen Is to be highly com
mended upon the high standard OF
efficiency to which he has led this or
g~anization and 1t Is of interest to all to
note his steady progress from year tc
year.

900 voters registered as republican.
Out of the total vote cast on governor
was 1874, and on senator 45.044. On
the other places on the ticket, the vote
ranged from $4,000 to a little over 40
900. Governor Byrne received 1891
votes, and won by a plurality over two
opponents. Senator Crawford receiv-
ed 1898, or just twenty-three votes
less, and lost by more than five thous-
and to his opponent. J. L. Lockhart
as a candidate for state committeeman
received 1904 votes and won by a ma
iority of 500. while Dick Haney as a
candidate for national committeeman
received 49, O2 votes or seven hundred
more than Lockhart did, but lost to
Thorson his opponent by practically
two thousand votes.
