PLATFORM He will do exactly what he prom
Uses to do but he will promise to do nothing
that he thinks is not on the square and in the
open, and that, in my opinion, he would not
do even at this time, though to not do so
would cost him his opportunity of being
nominated on the Republican ticket for the
states chief executive
Next Sunday afternoon John F. Miller will

publican Club it's place of meeting, 21st

Rev. w. D. Carter who spent the most
of last week in Spokane attending the State
Baptist Association, between sessions MADE
some inquiry as to the standing OF the
gubernatorial aspirant Of that city among the
Colored citizens, and using his own words,
ct found an almost, if not absolutely, unanl-
nous sentiment in favor of Senator Ed. L.
Conan for governor among the Coored cltl-
zens of Spokane. They say both in politics
and in business he has always been unllsu-
ally fair toward the Colored man. Whether
or not he had indicated to them that ne
would take that spirit OF fairness into the
gubernatorial administration, in case he is
50 fortunate. they did not say, but the pre-
sumption is he will do So His record OF
fairness toward the Colored citizens of his
home community is such that it seems to me
the leaders among the Colored citizens OF
the state should carefully look into it and
the Senator be given proper credit for the
same. AS I understand it no other guberna-
torial aspirant has been so favorably recon-
mended and endorsed by the Colored citizens
who know him best, as has Senator Conan
by his Colored constituents and we OF the
other parts of the state should cooperate
with them if we find that they were fully
justified in so recommending HIM me
King County Colored Republican Club Will
consider the advisability Of endorsing candl-
dates at it's regular meeting next Sunday
afternoon and it is hoped full attendance
will be on hand-Editorial Warblings.
