SHIPPERS HEAR MIL PLEA
RATE HEARING IS HELD
OLYMPIA, AVASH.
AT
Increased Tarifr on Traffic West of
Mountains, Filed Prior to Fed
eral Rise, Is Considered.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Aug. 17. (Spe
cial.) Important shipping interests of
Washington were represented at a
hearing held here, today before the
public service commission on the ap
plication of railroads for increases in
freight rates on state traffic corre
sponding to the increases granted by
the interstate commerce commission
on interstate shipments.
The hearing was called originally
on a tariff increasing rates on traffic
west of the mountains filed by the
roads prior to the finding by the fed
eral commission and upon which the
federal increase would be added.
The first tariff was suspended tem
porarily with the consent of the rail
roads, and the commission heard ar
guments on whether they should ap
prove or reject the second application,
which calls for increases on intra
state business parallel with the fed
eral increases of 25 per cent, or
whether the roads should be com
pelled to readjust individual rates to
give them an increase of 25 per cent
on the aggregate. Shippers were no
tified that an opportunity would be
granted to file protests, and be heard
on the first tariff, known as tariff
Al or the Henry tariff, before action
was taken by the commission upon Its
reinstatement.
The 25 per cent increase becomes ef
fective August 26 unless suspended
by the commission.
OLTMPIA, Wash.. Aug. 17. If the
state public service commission fails
to act In harmony with the Interstate
commerce commission by authorizing
within their states the rate increases
granted by the federal body, the inter
state commerce commission is empow
ered to supersede the state commis
sion, George T. Reid, assistant to the
president of the Northern Pacific, ar
gued before the Washington commis
sion yesterday.
Mr. Reid cited section 13 of the
amended transportation act passed by
congress as his authority for the right
of the interstate commerce commis
sion to assume authority over state
commissions where conflict with the
federal regulations ensued.

BITTER POLITICAL
FRAY IS PROMISED
Campaign in Washington Di

STATE IS BATTLE GROUND
Democrats to Make Vigorous Flglit
lor Electoral Vote Roosevelt
Expected to Give Impetus.
(Continued From First Pftg.)
went republican in 1908, progressiva
in 1912 and democratio in 1916.
Taft beat Bryan by a practically
two-to-one vote In 1908, receiving
106,062 to Bryan's 58,691. In 1912
Roosevelt got 113.698 votes, Wilson
86,840 and Taft 70.445. Wilson car
ried the state in 1916, receiving 183,
388 votes to 167.208 cast for Hughes.
Odds in Harding's Favor.
With the progressives supporting
Harding ana 6. strong defection among
independent voters to support Wil
son in 1916. it requires an Imaginative
mind to reach any other conclusion
than that Harding enters the cam
paign in this state with the odds in
his favor. If the voters can be made
to feel that continuance of prohibl-j
tion, and strict enforcement of stat
utory provisions to make it effective,
are endangered by the election of the
democratic ticket, then the Harding
majority In Washington will be that
much greater.
That the state presents a battle
ground, however, to the minds of
the democratic national committee is
evidenced by their determination to
establish branch headquarters in the
state and make a vigorous fight for
the electoral vote. They are bringing
Franklin D. Roosevelt, vice-presidential
candidate, into the state for a
number of speeches this week and
are counting upon his appearance
here to give added Impetus to the
campaign efforts of the state organ
za tion.
Interest Centers on Governor.
The national camnalgn, neverthe
93. must taice second place in she
attention of me public for 80 days,
at least, while office seekers of both
old parties fight for nomination in
the primary election. Interest is cen-
ered in the contest for governor, in
which seven republicans are seeking
the honor, while four are. making the
contest to head the democratio state
ticket. For the republican nomina
tion for governor the filings include
John Stringer of Seattle. Colonel Ro
land H. Hartley of Everett, Edwin T.
Coman of Spokane, Governor Hart of
Tacoma, John H. GellaUy or wenat
chee, George B. Lamping of Seattle,
Anna MacEachern of Seattle. The
democratic candidates are Dr. Edward
T. Mathes of Bellingham, L G. O'Hara
of Seattle, A. E. Judd of Chehalis and
Judge W. W. Black of Everett.
Although the governorship m tne
nlv office on the state ticket for
which there is a contest among thej
democrats, there will be fights lor
nearly every place on the republican
ticket. With four entries lor me
republican nomination for united
States senator, the race is in reality
three-cornered affair, the candi
dacy of Frank Erickson of Everett,
being apparently without any DacK
ne other than a personal whim. .How
ever. Colonel William M. Inglis of Se
ttle, an overseas commanaer ana
until he resigned to make the race
director of the veterans' welfare com
mission, is expected to have strong
support among ex-service men in his
effort to replace w esiey .u. Jones,
who is seeking re-election. Forest L.
Hudson, indorsed for the place By
the railway men's welfare league,
unquestionably will draw the support
of the triple alliance, non-partisan
league and kjndred organizations.
whose members plan to invade the
republican primary. Hudson must be
recognized as a factor in the race.
Five Republicans in Kield.
For lieutenant-governor five re
publicans are in the field for the
nomination. They are Edward JU
French of Vancouver, Harve H. Phlpps
of Spokane, W. W. Coiner of Seattle,
John L. Sharpstein of Walla Walla
and Captain WiHiam J. Coyle of Se
attle. Any one of the five may be
regarded as a real contender.
Attorney-General Thompson, ap
pointed by Governor Hart to fill an
unexpired term, will be opposed by
Thomas Francis Hunt of Seattle, for
the republican nomination.
For state auditor, C. W. Clausen,
incumbent, will have for his op
ponent in the republican primary
George A. Bundy of Seattle, while
Mrs. Josepnrne Corliss Preston, state
superintendent, will have Mrs. Eliza
beth Jones of Everett, as an opponent
for the republican nomination for
head of the state school system.
Robert E. Dwyer of Seattle wants
the republican nomination for state
insurance commissioner, - the office
now held by H. O. Flshback who
seeks renomination by the republi
cans. '
Radical Coup Feared.
Clark V. Savldge, state land com
missioner, and Secretary of State
Hinkle. both repuDiicans, are the only
candidates for state offices' without
opposition for nomination in the
primary.
The attitude of the triple alliance
and non-partisan league in not filing
candidates in the primary is causing
considerable concern among republi
can leaders. The plan of this element
to invade the republican primary and
attempt to dictate the nominations
while at the same time reserving
enough or the votes to hold a con
vention on the day of the primary
to name a third ticket is viewed by
shrewd politicians as a double bar
reled arrangement , which will give
to the result an uncertainty unwel
come to the regulars.
The third division of the political
situation to wnicn reierence was
made in the beginning of this gen
eral outline of conditions existing at
the outset or the campaign. Includes
the issues presented by the submia
sion of two referendum measures and
two constitutional amendments for
action by the voters at the general
election. They are placed in a sepa
rate classification for the reason that
strictly speaking they are not parti
san measures and none of them will
be determined by strict party vote.
They do, however, present a basis
for real contests in the cases of at
least three or the four measures.
Referendum No. 1, known as the
Carlyon road bond bill, provides for
a t30.000.000 honds Issue to be re
deemed from motor license fees, for
the purpose of constructing a state
system of .trunk line hard-surface
highways. The measure has the in
dorsement of most of the automobile
civic and commercial organizations
of the state, but is meeting with de
termined opposition in a number of
quarters.
Bonus "Likely to Pass.
Referendum No. 2 is the soldiers'
bonus bill and probably will pass, al
though it will encounter some op
position.
Of the constitutional amendments,
the first relates to eminent domain
and would declare the taking of
private property for reclamation by
the state to be a public use. It Is
expected to receive approval by the
voters without serious objection.
The other amendment provides for
increasing the salaries of state offi
cers. Its fate is uncertain, with few
willing to urge publicly its adoption
In face of the general demand for
reduction of the expense of government.
