POINDEXTER
FOR UNITY

In telegram sent OF j. Z. Chill
berg of Seattle, head of the citi-
zens' committee of that city which
came out in his support recently.
Senator Poindexter Saturday de-
clared that he had consistently
voted to increase the protective
tariff on products of the North
west, and that he would continue
to exert his influence in this d.
rection.
Unequivocal support for
Hughes and Fairbanks, and a de-
termined effort to abolish all un-
fair features of the Underwood
tariff, were promised.
A copy of the telegram was re-
ceived by George q. Williamson
of Tacoma, head of the citizens
organization in this city support
ing the senator for reelection. 1t
follows:
Hope you will make 1t plain
to every one interested, particu-
larly republicans, that / have con-
sistently voted and worked for a
tariff upon lumber, shingles,
wheat, wool, coal, and all the 9TH
err raw products which constitute
the production of the Pacific
Northwest. The same thing is
true as to every article of Ameri-
can production which needs pro-
lection.
Il mention the foregoing as of
special interest in this state. /
declared in the primary campaign
unequivocally my support of
Hughes and Fairbanks and shall
work for their election and urge
others to do likewise.
my objection to the Under
wood tariff bill is shown by scores
of votes to change its schedule in
the particulars mentioned, and
many others, and / shall take ad-
vantage of the earliest opportun-
ity and every occasion to substi-
tute for this bill a tariff bill
carrying out the policies of the
republican party as expressed in
it's recent platforms and distribut-
ing uniformly the benefits of pro-
lection. l am very much in hopes
that all elements in the republi-
can party can unite for the cleo
tion of the entire ticket.

Troop Coming

The Winter Garden, always
synonymous with gorgeous seem
cry, catchy music and hordes Of
beautiful girls, is sending to this
city its latest creation, "A World
of Pleasure" the production be-
ing booked for the Tacoma thea

GOING UP!

The heads of Detective Capt. d.
o. Smith and former Capt. Will
lam Fackler are the same size.
And thereby hangs a tale.
When Smith was denoted in
May and Fackler given his job.
the former captain sold Fackler
a perfectly good gold-braided
cap, bearing the insignia ""Cap-
tain of Detectives" on the front.
Saturday morning Smith TOOK
up his former duties, and Fackler,
returning to detective work, had
no use for the cap. So another
transfer of cap and coin was
made.
"That'es the only negotiation
necessary to my induction into Of
fice," said Capt. Smith. And I'm
ahead by the bargain, for l have
had the use of Packers money
ever since May"
