TURNER'S LEAD GAINS STEADILY Black Running Behind in East Side and Chances Grow Slighter. SPOKANE, Wash.. Sept. 9. (Special.) George Turner, candidate for the Democratic nomination for United States Senator, is gaining steadily as more county returns come in on the East Side and seems to have a good lead over Judge Black. If Black does not pick up faster on the West Side of the state. Turner will be the Demo cratic nominee. The race for Republican nomination for Congressman in the Fifth District 1e the closest in this region. On the face of partial returns, Harry Rosen haupt has a lead of about 200 over A. J. Wilson and Percy Powell, who are running neck and neck. The offi cial canvass will be required to decide which is the nominee. C. C. Dill is the Democratic nominee, his plurality growing steadily, and Thomas Corkery is the Progressive nominee for Congressman. Ole Hanson, Progressive for Senator, is more than holding his own on the East Side and, as he is leading on the West Side, there seems little doubt that he is the nominee. Roscoe Drumheller is undoubtedly the Democratic nominee for Congress in the Fourth District and W. L. La Follette has won his race by at least S000. The Progressive vote has been very light except In Spokane County. 388 MORRISON STREET Soule Bros., Bankrupt Piano Sale Never in the history of piano selling have pianos sold so fast Why Player Pianos and Grand Pianos at $2 per Week payments. because you can buy $250 and $300 pianos now for $9720; only $100 a week.
