G.. P. Aubert and John O'Neil,
submitted the following plat
form, which was unanimously
adopted:
We hereby reaffrm our allegiance to
the Jeffersonian doctrines of Democ-
racy, as originated and promulgated
by the father of our party, and as now
promoted by that great party leader,
| Woodrow Wilson.
| We fully commend the administra-
ton of the democratic party under the
leadership of President Wilson, and ap-
| plaud his success in securing the enact
ment of the great constructive legisla-
| ton by the democratic congress.
| We commend the efforts of Governor
Ernest Lister to reduce expenditures in
| the conduct of this states affairs, and
pledge our support in securing legis-
lature which will cooperate with him
in further reduction of expenditures.
We indorse the efficient and econom-
| ical administration of county affairs at
the hands of those democrats who have
fulfilled their pledges to reduce the cost
of their offices, and who have reduced the
county Indebtedness to the lowest point
in IA years. We believe the continued
retrenchment IN the cost of conducting
county and state affairs to oe one of
the most important matters before US
today, and the democratic party in this
county offers to the public the record
of those democrats now in county office.
In the evening, at the court
room, an excellent address was
delivered by Warren w. Tolman

eral funds to assist in moving
the crops this year. The secre-
tary of treasury has sent letters
to all the national banks, sound
ing them out on the matter. He
does not state that the money is
available for them, but asks
whether they need it and how
they would use it, pay it back
and what security they think
should be given. According to
bankers, the federal reserve
bank is so close at hand that
there is no need for more govern
ment funds.

The Examiner is pleased to pre-
sent to it's readers this week the
entire speech Of George Turner,
democratic candidate for the U.
S. senate, delivered at Seattle
June 30. The speech takes up
in detail so many of the vital
principles of democratic action
that it is of great interest to
every citizen; at the same time
the candidacy of Mr.. Turner is as
suming such prop orti ons
throughout the state as to make
his opening address read with
especial interest by the men,
bers of the party which he
espouses.
In speaking of Mr.. Turner and
his speech, the Seattle Times
says: "There is no other man in
the democratic party to be COM
pared to Senator Turner. 1t is
not overstating the fact to say
that Senator Turner has no equal
in his party, either in Washing
ton or any of the coast states.
1t is not too much to say that Sem
ator Turner has no superior as a
statesman, lawyer and diplomat
in any party on the Pacific Coast.
The democratic party ought to

of Spokane, democratic can
didate for congress from this dis
trict. He took up a number of
the actions of the democratic ad-
ministration, and showed the
constructive character of the leg
islation which has been effected,
drawing the conclusion in each
instance that it was imperative
at this time to send men to con-
gress who will assist in the reme-
dial legislation which yet re-
mains to be accomplished.
A number of the out-of-town
delegates were called upon for a
few remarks.

day evening. He took as his
text the comparison of the three
leading parties-their leaders,
their promises, their perform
ances. He showed them that
the republicans had promised for
years but had not performed,
that the democrats had promised
and had actually performed when
given an opportunity; that the
progressive leaders had not per-
formed when in office under the
republican rule, but as soon as
out of office they began to promise.
The Judge is a red-hot speaker,
a sure-enough live one on the
platform, and is making a strong
campaign for senatorial nomina-
ton. He was the democratic
primary nominee for governor
two years ago, but was beaten
out of the job by the republican
supreme court. He now says
that if the party will give him
enough first choice votes for SEN
ator, he will see to it that the
supreme court does not beat him
out again.

With republican speakers and
newspapers urging that the

the progressives and republicans,
and the progressive speakers
and papers stating that the
common cause of the American
people" demands the continued
efforts of the progressive party,
we wonder if this common

streets.
A unique political situation is
disclosed in the 1st commissioner
district of this county. The peo-
pie have actually selected the
man for their candidate, and
forced him to run. This has
been done without regard to po-
litical party lines. The Hunters
Boosters Club and the Fruitland
Farmers League, both composed
of the live ones of that section of
the county, have worked together
for some years in endeavoring to
have their section properly rep
resented by commissioner. This
year. the Hunters people selected

lage, but Thorne refused any COM
partnership. One evening Mrs. Gran
dali sent little Dot over to the place
with a dish of the first strawberries
of the season, newly picked from their
own home garden. Mr.. Crandan and
the masked man had got as far as
bowling to one another, but only at
distance The kind-intentioned Gran
dali hoped to break down the barrier
of reserve with the recluse He pitied
his loneliness and hoped to become
neighborly.
A sharp scream caused Mrs. Gran
dali to rush to the street minute or
two after little Dot had started on her
errand.
''Oh, my darling! My darlingw
she screamed, as she saw amid a
cloud of dust a great touring car and
an excited crowd gathering.
"She is safew called out a voice
suddenly, and the speaker and some
others drew back as there emerged
from amid the confusion the masked
man.
He carried little Dot in his arms
She was white with fright. but smil-
ing up at him murmuring lovingly:
"Oh, you good man-to come just
as l was being ruined overw
A little lad followed with the dish
filed with dust and berries. Then
there were explanations. The auto
mobile had borne down Unexpectedly,
the masked man CHANGED to be at his
garden gate. He shrank from the
staring crowd, without a word,
placed Dot in the arms of her adopted
mother and disappeared, followed by
the ardent thanks Of Mrs. Crandan.
But there was a great ado the next
day. Dot insisted that she must go
and see her friend. Young as she
was, she recognized debt of graft

next place abutting on the Crandall

mock in the next garden, telling
stories to the masked man.
That was the beginning of a rare
companionship between the lovable
little Dot and the lonely world
weary recluse. All through the
golden month of June, hour after
hour, the strangely mated twain
would wander over the garden. To
this charming little sprite who was
not at all repealed by the mask he
wore, the recluse seemed to pour out
all the love and sympathy of his ma
ture. The Crandalls had not the
heart to deprive Dot of this great
pleasure Besides, he took pains in
teaching her to read, he filled her
mind with wondreus nature stories.
Then one day Dot came home in
tears.
"He is going away" she sobbed,
land shall be so lonely"
At the barred gate that evening
Mr.. Thorne met Mr.. Crandal and told
him that business would call him
away for month to a distant city.
He expressed his gratitude for the
company of the little child who had
brought so much of sunshine into his
dreary life. ---
1t was a joyful evening when Dot
saw a light once more in the solitary
old house. She could scarcely sleep,
so anxious was she to regain her old
friend. The barred gate was kept
locked, however. For fully week
the recluse was not seen about the
grounds. At dusk one evening he
passed the house. Dot ran out i'm
petuously to greet him.
She returned with white, fright
ened face. She was trembling all
over Amid great terror she gasped
out:
"Oh, papa! Oh, mamma! 1t isn't

SALE OF FOULC COLLECTION.

PARIS, June 3.-The Edmond Foulc
collection of rare volume on ornament
and architecture will be placed on sale
at public auction today and the three
followings days. Mr.. Foulc, who is
eighty-five years old, is greatly dis
tressed by the dispersal of this collec-
ton, which was collected by many
years painstaking effort On his part
Some time ago he sold the collection
to the late J. P. Morgan, with the I'M
derstanding that it would remain in
tact and at Mr.. Morgan's death would
be presented to the American nation.
Mr.. Morgan did not retain the collec-
ton, neither did the vender take it
back. A third party interviewed, hoping
the books might be added to the artis-
tic and archaeological library founded
by Mr.. Jacques Doucet, but as this
proved impossible he has had to pro-
coed to a public sale.

BOY SCOUTS EYCAMPMENT.

DALLAS, Tex, June 3.-Boy Scouts
of Texas who are attending the state
camp on Ranch "U," beginning today,
and lasting two weeks, will enjoy a
feature in which probably no other
scouts, as an organization, have ever
participated.
This feature is a rabbit run and the
scouts have made preparations to go
after the record for affairs of this kind
in Texas. The "U'' ranch is as wild
almost as it was in its frontier days,
and the hundreds of scouts will I'M
doubtedly have two weeks of excellent
sport and run besides the excitement Of
the rabbit run.
