WEATHER BOTHERS
PRIMABY CAMPAIGN
Washington Takes but Little
Interest in Politics
Just Now.
DEMOCRATIC FILINGS FEW
Hardly Enough Declarations of Can
dldacy to Fill Out Ticket, While
Republicans Will Have Contest
for Neary Every Office.
SEATTLE, July 12. (Special.) Hot
leather anda direct primary cam
paign will not mix. Even in the storm
renters, where the September pri
maries ought to be close enough to
fcrouse intense interest, there is an
fcpathetic view ot the situation that
kneans some new stimulus has to be
Injected to get politicians to work. In
Ihe outlying districts, and partlcular-
during the coming two month3 by a show
ing of senatorial interest In his success.
The pro-Jones campaign will be stimu
lated almost entirely by an exploitation of
the Yakima candidate through his own
personal fight. There is an effort on
the part of pro-Jones leaders to weight
down his campaign by attaching to it the
fights of certain other state officers or
candidates, action which would injure
Jones.
Popular Vote Will Determine.
It is unquestionably true that the next
Legislature will accept the verdict of the
popular vote on Senator. Both candidates
have agreed to abide by the outcome o
the primary vote. What that popular vote
may be depends upon the interest that
can be aroused from a voting public in the
disinterested districts which is anxious to
look after crops, either of grain or timber.
Ankeny is undoubtedly growing but there
are 60 days of uncertainty ahead.
S. C. Cosgrove was first into the guber
natorial fight and he did a lot of organiza
tion work before any of the other candi
dates started. Within recent months a
fight for second choice votes In Cosgrove's
Interest, has been growing and a popular
Impression is abroad that Cosgrove's chief
hope of, winning is through a second
choice. Unquestionably this impression
has injured the Pomeroy candidate.
The significance of such a situation is
that both Mead and McBride figure their
chances exist on procuring a plurality
equal to 40 per cent or more of the total
vote cast for Governor. Whatever Cos
grove loses in first choice votes has to be
divided between the other candidates and
It is probably true McBride is gaining
most of what Cosgrove is apparently
losing.
Evidence of Understanding.
There Is every indication of an under
standing between the Mead and Cosgrove
followers on the basis that Cosgrove is to

CHAUTAUQUA GROUNDS, Gladstone
Park. July 12. (Special.) The Chau
tauqua believes in keeping Sunday, and
the tented city, together with the
throng of visitors, enjoyed the sacred
programme of the day. The exercises
opened with Sunday' school at 11
o'clock, under the direction of the State
Sunday School Association and under
the leadership of R. K. Steele, presi
dent. At 2 o'clock the Chautauqua
chorus led the assembly in slhging "My
Faith Looks Up to Thee." Rev. Hoar,
of Gladstone, pronounced the Invoca
tion and the Willamette Quartet sang
"Sabbath Chimes." The chorus and
audience then sang the second hymn

V r?r t
ly In the farming communities, there
Is every Indication that the primary
vote will be lighter than any of the
candidates have figured.
Hot weather never was propitious
for political activity In this state, and
, when weather conditions are acceler-
ted by crop damage on the east side
: and quietude In the lumber regions
i of Western Washington, Interest in
! the pending political fights wanes
; even faster.
I Few Democratic Filings.
The first filings under the direct
I primary were made Friday and, from
; reports throughout the state, it is evl
, dent Democratic leaders are prepared
I to concede this state is hopelessly Re
I publican. There is every evidence that
; as the primary election approaches a
i sharp contest will be made between
I members of the majority party for
! places on the state, county and local
j tickets, but Democratic candidates
have been only conspicuous by their
absence. There were not enough
; Democratic filings throughout the
i state Friday to make up a respect
able ticket, while Republican contests
over nearly every office are promised
. for a hazy future.
Four years ago Washington gave a
j Republican majority of 73.000, and In
, the off-year of a Congressional elec
; tlon a majority of 40,000 was rolled
i up. In the most favorable circum
stances a change of more than 20,000
' votes would be necessary to elect a
! Democratic state ticket, and Demo
( cratlc leaders have not yet considered
! the problem worth serious attack. A
conference of Democratic leaders will
I fce held In Tacoma on July 27 to select
imrn to fill out a state ticket, but
until that assemblage Is held, pollti
rians of neither party expect to find
Democratic activity in this state.
In the meantime a settled convic
tion that most of the pending Repub
lican fights will wait a while seems
o have Influenced members of that
party. There Is much interest In King,
Spokane. Yakima, Pierce, Walla Walla
and Whatcom Counties; a local con
test has aroused politicians In Snoho
mish, and Whitman is always stirred
' up over politics. Chehalls seems to
be alive and Thurston Is fussing. But,
as a rule, the various districts of the
state are apathetic and prepared to
wait.
The Republican fight in Washington
is certain to center about the cam
paigns for Senator and Governor. The
two issues are of almost equal Impor
tance to voters. The more systematic
work in the Senatorial fight has been
done by the Ankeny organization,
which has perfected county and fac
tional organizations. The greatest
newspaper notoriety has been given to
the Jones campaign.
Personal Frlendhlp Figures.
Ankeny Is bearing the brunt of ex
actly the same kind of a fight that he
has met for 13 or 14 years. Jones is
being attacked on a record held up to
public view and" a claim that he has
misinterpreted Ankeny's actions or
motives and that he has dealt un
fairly with the senior Senator. Per
sonal friendship cuts a big figure in
both campaigns; Ankeny's record as a
pioneer being contrasted with Jones
as a Republican campaign speaker and
leader.
Eighteen months ago the drift was
strongly pro-Jones. The sentiment is now
close enough to make the outcome of the
fight at least doubtful. There Is no ques
tion but that the anti-Ankeny campaign
has been waged too bitterly and that An
keny has gained steadily by a develop
ment of facts. There is certainly nothing
new the anti-Ankeny campaigners can say
and if anything Is urged within the next 60
days it cannot hurt and it may help
Ankeny. Practically the whole of the
anti-Jones campaign has been covered,
though it Is being developed through an
exploitation of his political associates.
The pro-Ankeny fight will be stimulated
be supported for second choice. The ac
tual management of the Mead campaign Is
naturally for the present Governor, but
some of the most powerful influences
backing Mead would be better satisfied
with Cosgrove's nomination.
Cosgrove opened headquarters In Seattle
this week and he will have managers in
active charge locally until the campaign
closes, making his own headquarters in
this city. Mead is to open headquarters
here and Atkinson has been busy In and
about Seattle. He will probably be rep
resented here. Colonel W. M. Ridpath
has a corps of local managers at work,
but his real headquarters are in Tacoma
and Spokane. Colonel J. W. Robinson of
Olympia Is not likely to figure promi
nently here.
Thorough McBride Organization.
In the meantime there Is an active and
thorough ward organization here for Mc
Bride. In each of the large counties of
the state McBride has a complete organi
zation. This Is true, for instance, of
King, Snohomish, Whatcom. Pierce, Spo
kane, Walla Walla, Whitman, Chehalls
and Lewis. It is a fact none of the
gubernatorial candidates is so thoroughly
organized as McBride and it is undoubted
ly true that none could get as much work
accomplished In his interests at so little
expenditure of money or labor.
Among the minor offices the campaign
for Attorney-General promises to be as
hotly contested as any. with the fight over
Lieutenant-Governor next. In these two
fights the facts that J. H. Easterday,
ex-Tax Commissioner, is known In every
county will Influence the Attorney-General's
contest and the campaign of Lieu
tenant Governor C. E. Coon for renomina
tion will be strengthened by the circum
stance that he has a wider state acquaint
ance than any ot his rivals and is known
as a member of commercial and fraternal
orders throughout the state. For similar
reasons S. H. Nichols, for Secretary of
State, and J. H. Schively for Insurance
Commissioner, will gather strength against
a limited field of opposition.
Four File Declarations.
CHEHALia Wash.. July 12. (Special.)
Four more candidates have filed their
declarations of candidacy since yester
day, among them one lose Democrat, S.
A. D. Eaton, of Centralia, for Justice
of the Peace of that city. R. N. Ash
more, who was County Auditor many
years ago. is a candidate for Assessor.
Peter Summersett declared his candi
dacy for renomination for Treasurer. Dr.
J. D. Thompson, of Winlock, declared for
Coroner, all on the Republican ticket.
MAN OF PUBLIC SPIRIT
Chehalls Mourns Loss of Good Citi
zen In Death of D. C. Millett.
CHEHALIS. Wash., July 12 (Spe
cial.) Daniel C. Millett, who died here
last evening, was born in Wisconsin
el years ago. He came to Chehalls 20
years ago and since then has been
one of the main factors in the growth
and development of this thriving city.
Mr. Millett was one of ,the owners in
the banking house of Coftman, Dobson
& Co., of Chehalis, and. in company
with U. E. Harmon, practiced law. He
was a progressive, public-spirited man
and it was largely due to his efforts
while occupying the position of Mayor
of this city that many public im
provements were put In.
He leaves a family consisting of a
widow. Mrs. Kate C. Millett; one
daughter, Mrs. E. A. Frost, both of
this city, and two sons, Daniel A.
Millett. a well-known stockman of
Gila Bend. Ariz., and Gardner W. Mil
lett. of New York City. Definite ar
rangements have not yet been made
for the funeral, which will be held al
Claquato, near here.

and Dr. Ira Landrith, of Nashville,
Tenn., preached the afternoon sermon.
Dr. Landrith said, by way of preface
to his sermon, that as this was the
last time that he would appear, he
wanted to impress upon the Assembly
the value of the work that the man
agers were doing for this section of
the country in giving the public the
chance to attend the platform enter
tainments. Epigrams of Dr. Landrith.
He took for his text I Samuel, xvi:7:
"Man looketh on the outward appear
ance, but the Lord looketh on the
heart." The speaker gave the setting
of the text, telling the story of the
annolntlng of David and showing from
this that God wants kingly hearts and
not royal faces. The family of David
and the world looked upon him as a
sheep-herder, while God looked on him
as a shepherd of the people. He in
terpreted the verse, "By their works ye
shall know them." as a rule of Judg
ment, Imperfect, but given to the peo
ple by God and not the rule used by
God In the final judgment of man. A
few of the epigrams used by Dr. Land
rith in developing his theme follow:
"We must Judge men by their minds,
not by their means. Some of the im
perfections of man's judgment are piti
ful. The truest and most generous men

THE STURDIEST peoples of the earth drmk beer
drink it from childhood to age. And those are the peoples
who suffer least from nervousness and from dyspepsia.
When one needs more vitalky,theDoctor says "drinkbeer.
The barley is food; the hops are a tonic The trifle-of
alcohol is an aid to digestion.
The proper drinking of beer- but not the abuse of it is
good for the weak and the well. And not the least of the good
comes through flushing the system; in getting rid of the waste.
But a beer to be healthful needs to be pure. And it must
be well aged, else the after-result is biliousness.
That is why we are so careful -with Schlitz. We double
the necessary cost of our brewing to insure absolute purity.
And we age the beer for months before marketing.
It gives you the good without the harm.
Ask for the Brewery Bottling
Common beer is sometime tubstitnted for Schlitz.
To avoid being imposed sgtoM, see that the cork or -crown is branded Schlits.

The BccrThat Made Milwaukee Famous
are those who keep closest the good
they are doing for other people. There
is a soul life, across, the border of
which you and I have no right to know.
What the world needs more than learn
ing, civilization and money Is tender
sympathy. We don't understand men's
battles because we cannot look into the
atmosphere that surrounds them and
into the past that is back of them. Nn
man should judge harshly until he has
lived ror 300 years and has personally
known the boyhood of a person's
grandfather. God understands the evil
of our own lives better than we do.
Morality is not religion, but religion
without morality is a farce. Only purity
of the heart Insures heaven, but It is
a poor sort of a man who lives to get
to heaven and a poorer sort who does
not try to make this world a heaven."
Dr. Whitman In Evening.
The Chemawa .Indian School band
gave a sacred concert at 4 o'clock. This
organization has become part and par
cel of the Chautauqua at Gladstone,
and its part of the entertainment this
year is better by far than ever before.
At 5 o'clock the Japanese programme
was enjoyed by a filled auditorium.
This was under the auspices of the
Portland Y. W. and T. M. C, A. Six
Japanese took part.
The evening programme was begun
with a hymn by the Chautauqua chorus.
Miss Nina Pearl Johnson rendered a
solo In a beautiful manner. Her work
is always enjoyed.
Dr. B. L. Whitman, of Seattle, .who
has charge of the Bible study at the
Assembly, preached the evening ser
mon. He appears a physical and Intel
lectual giant and his hearers were
sorry when he finished his magnetic
discourse. Those who heard this ser
mon are looking forward to the two
lectures that he gives this week.

DENVER. July 12. The annual conven
tion of the Western Federation of Miners,
the first since the acquittal of its ex-secretary-treasurer,
William D. Haywood,
and George A. Pettibone, .one-time mem
ber of the executive board, of the mur
der of ex-Governor Frank Steunenberg,
of Idaho, will assemble In this city tomor
row. Its sessions will continue for two
weeks. The convention is composed of
230 delegates, coming from mining dis
tricts in the Western states, Canada and
Alaska.
Out of this convention is expected to
spring .a more intimate relationship be
tween the Western Federation and the
United Mlneworkers of America, to whioh
end the latter organization, is sending a,
committee headed by President T. H.
Lewis to meet the Western Federation
delegates and agree upon a concerted
plan of action. For several months each
organization has recognized the cards of
the other.
President C. H. Moyer will call the
convention to order, and from present In
dications he will "be re-elected If he will
accept the office. The same is true of
Vice-President C. E. Mahoney, Secretary
Treasurer Ernest Mills and a majority of
the executive board. Several minor
changes in the constitution will be pro
posed to cover the necessities of the
Federation, which now has locals from
Nome to Alaska, on the north, to the
southern extremity of Arizona.
A strong delegation from Butte will
make an effort to win the next conven
