GOVERNOR IS DUE
BACK NEXT WEEK
WITH VARIOUS OFF,.
GALS IN EAST ON CUES.
TIONS OF DAY.

Governor Ernest Lister, who went
east early this month to attend a con-
ference of state executives at Allan
tic City and who tarried in Washing
ton, D. c., to absorb lot of federal
reconstruction ideas, will return
about January l, it is unofficially an
nounced. The governor intended
when he started East to be back in
Olympia this week, but he decided
not to celebrate Christmas on a rail-
road train.
The return of the governor has
two important political angles. He
will not only bring with him lot OF
new ideas gathered from the confer
ences with federal officials, but he
also will release Lieut-Gov. Louis F.
Hart from responsibility for routine
affairs in the executive Office.
Whatever he has gathered in the
East will be reflected in his biennial
message to the legislature. and the
release of Lieutenant Governor Hart
from other work will enable him to
speed up the work of assembling
data for committee assignments and
other routine work of the state SEN
ate.
1t was generally understood when
Governor Lister went East that the
finishing touches would not be put
on his message until he had famil-
iarized himself with the plans of
other states and the federal govern
ment for reconstruction work. The
executive went over proposed appro-
priations with the state board of f.
nance before he started East, and he
had all recommendations of differ
ent state departments before him a
month ago. But what was unsettled
in his mind was the part this state
will play or would be expected to
play in reconstruction work. He ex-
pected to gain a lot of knowledge
from federal officials and to gather
ideas from other state governors
while at the national conference.
Unoff1cially it is reported that the
6ONcIuOT ploulCu IuOuNu d6O PIdC-
tically to withdraw himself from poll
tics, for he has pretty nearly given
up all ideas of future office-seeking.
AS nearly as can be understood and
stated this unofficial statement of the
governors position meant that unless
something occurred to change his
plans he would retire from public life
at the end of his gubernatiOnal term,
but that this plan always was subject
to change without notice If new con-
ditiOns arose.
What might happen in the East
friends of the administration under
stood would not have any effect on
Listers personal plans, but they
would be likely to influence the tone
of his message. The reception Of
that message might have deciding
effect on the governors future poll
tical plans. So the Eastern tour was
regarded in administration circles as
being unusually important.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1918-12-27

cred approximately SO persons, con-
sisting of men, women and children.
Throughout the entire speech the au-
dience was very unruly and number
of persons who were present hao
gathered more for the purpose of So
cial entertainment than to listen to a
speech.
Witnesses Disagree.
Fifteen witnesses have made state
ments to the investigating Officers of
the government to the effect that
Bouck did upon this occasion make
substantially the statements that are
charged against him in the indict-
ment. Seven others state that, while
they remember that Bouck In his
speech spoke rather disparagingly OF
the Liberty Loan bond issue. they
cannot recall that he made the exact
statements attributed to him in the
indictment, although these witnesses
state that it would be possible for
him to have made the statements and
for them not to have heard the state
ments made.
Twenty-six other witnesses state
positively that the defendant did not
make the statments charged against
him in the indictment Some OF these
witnesses go to the extent OF testify
ing that not onl ydid Bouck not make
these statements, but that. on the
contrary, he delivered a patriotic ad'
dress, urging his hearers to support
the President during the war and to
purchase Liberty Bonds.
Among these witnesses is one VINO
would make more than an ordinarily
good impression upon his hearers.
This witness is John F. Estes, who
presided at the meeting, and who is
now a soldier stationed at Camp Lew
is. Because of the fact that this wit
ness presided at the meeting he was
peculiarly in a position where he
could hear everything that was said.
This witness is positive that Bouck
did not make that portion of the
statements attributed to him in the
tt.
