DOCTOR IS A SOREHEAD Went With Hearst Forces and Was Badly Walloped. WOULD GET EVEN AT POLLS Ex-Mayor of Falls City Is th'e Pro fessed Champion of Labor and Could Do Great Damage on Election. Day. SPOKANE, Wash., June 1L (Special.) Here in Spokane exists -what is apparently the only Democratic opposition in the state to the nomination of ex-Senator George Turner for Governor. The faction iieaded by ex-Mayor Patrick S. Byrne, himself a candidate for Governor, is op posed to Judge Turner, and threatens to carry its opposition to the ballot box next November. The Byrne faction Is small In numbers. Sixty days ago. when It attempted to carry Spokane County for William R. Hearst, the Turner forces -won by a vote of two to one in the primaries. There ure few who believe that the Byrne men can carry the county primaries against Tur ner. It Is not the Byrne opposition in the primaries which worries the Turner men; It is the threat of the knife at the polls. Byrne Sparring for Position. Dr. Byrne, many people believe, would get on the Turner Gubernatorial band wagon If the Turner men would promise him the nomination for Mayor next year. That promise, much as the Turner men would like complete Democratic harmony In the county, they are not willing to make. In fact, if Judge Turner himself were to promise the Mayoralty to Byrne, it is doubtful if he could deliver 10 per cent of his following, for the anti-Byrne men hate Dr. Byrne with a hatred that Is deep, bitter and lasting. So, seeing no' chance of a deal on the Mayoralty, the Byrne forces are making threats of trouble in the election. A lit tle band of men meets weekly In Dr. Byrne's office. Ostensibly the meetings are to perfect an organization for the primaries. Really, however, the Byrne men do not hope to carry the primaries. They are peeking to get together as strong an organization as possible, to use either as a club to force the nomination of Byrne for Mayor,, or to use against Judge Turner on election day. Dr. Byrne's Stormy Career. Dr. Byrne had never been prominent in politics until the Spring of 1901, when he was brought out as a "dark-horse" candi date for Mayor, and nominated. A split In the Republican party elected him, and for two years his administration was marked by terrific quarrels in the rank3 of the Democracy over patronage. It soon became evident that the men behind Byrne were determined to wrest the Dem ocratic scepter from Judge Turner, and the entire Turner following massed to crush Byrne. The latter attempted to capture the county organization in 1902, and was overwhelmingly beaten by the Turner men in the primaries. In the Spring of 1903 Byrne stood as a candidate for renomination. The Turner men defeated him and nominated State Senator Huber Rasher. Byrne bolted and ran as an Independent candidate. Al though defeated, he got about 100 more votes than Senator Rasher, the regular Democratic nominee. Byrne a Labor Champion. Early In his career as Mayor Dr. Byrne began to pose as a labor champion. He "unionized" the city departments. Under his direction the "Federal Labor Union," composed of common laborers, was or ganized. That organization has about SOO members, and It became, and still Is, the backbone of Byrne's strength. The skilled trades unions have never had much to do with Byrne, nor taken much stock In his vaunted friendship for labor; but the common laborers he has with him to a man. It was as a "labor candidate" that Dr. Bryne made his second race for Mayor. The day before Dr. Byrne went out of office as Mayor he and the Turner fac tion, who controlled a majority of the in coming Council, though a Republican Mayor had been elected, patched up a temporary truce. A complete slate of city appointive officers, on which both factions had representation, was appoint ed by Byrne and confirmed by the out going Council. For over a year the Re publican Mayor L. F. Boyd has been making desperate but fruitless efforts to dislodge those men, but the Democratic Council refuses to confirm their succes sors, and the Democrats have virtual pos session of the City Hall. Byrne for Governor. About a year ago Dr. Byrne announced his candidacy for Governor. His chief supporter was City Engineer Allan F. Gill, who had been appointed on the afore mentioned slate. Under the Spokane charter the City Engineer, in various ways, controls a vast amount of patron age, and, if he feels so inclined, can be a political power. Mr. Gill plays politics even In his sleep. The Spokane County Democrats decided to hold two contentions this year the first merely to send delegates to the state convention, which in turn was called only to elect delegates to the National con vention, and the second to nominate county officers and name delegates to the second state convention, which will nominate state officers. The day before the primaries for the first convention were held. Dr. Byrne announced his intention to support Hearst. The result was a split In his own camp. City Engineer Gill deserted to the Turner forces, and took the whole City Hall contingent, bag and baggage, with him. The result was the overwhelming defeat of the Byrne-Hearst forces In the pri maries. Now, instead of supporting Byrne for Governor, Gill Is one of the most active Turner men In the county, and he has the City Hall crowd with him to a man, and these, with the remainder of the Turner forces, render it practically certain that the Turner forces will control, with ease, the second county convention, which will send delegates to the State Nomi nating Convention. Effect of Opposition. How much damage the Byrne men can do if they bolt Judge Turner's nomina tion for Governor Is open to speculation. Byrne's Independent race for Mayor, arid the surprising vote which, he received, have given his followers great ideas of bis strength; but in that contest the labor men who backed him saw In him a con tinuance of their jobs In the street and other city departments, while as Governor Byrne can give tfiem little or nothing. While Mr. Gill did not - support , Dr. Byrne In his Independent race, it is true, when he did go to Byrne, only to desert him later, that In the desertion he took with him Into the Turner camp a con siderable number of labor union men who contributed greatly io Byrne's strength in his second Mayoralty campaign. The Turner men claim Byrne cannot induce more than 200 men to bolt Turner; the Byrne men say they are good for fully 1000 votes. Spokane Democratic politics are under the control of a little group of men. This group Includes James M. Geraghty, Judge Turner's law partner; City Controller Floyd L. Daggett. City Engineer Gill, ex-Sheriff C. C. Dempsey, and Julius A. ZIttel, an architect. "When these five men work together and they usually do they are practically certain to have their way. They are all working together now In the Turner cause. Judge Turner himself rarely takes any hand In local contests, save where his own Interests are directly involved, and the men who have charge of his interests rarely consult him In purely local matters. Accordingly, many things are done in Turner's name, and for which he gets the credit or the blame as the case may be, concerning which he knows nothing. Close to the ruling five whose names have been mentioned are F. C. Robert son, a lawyer, and former candidate for Congress; State Senator WaTren W. Tol man, who was prominently mentioned as a candidate for Governor up to the time Judge Turner consented to run, and Frank P. Hogan, whom the Turner forces made a delegate to the National Conven tion. Spokane a Close County. On surely National Issues Spokane County has about 1500 Republican major ity; but for years the Republican party has been so rent with factional quarrels th?. the Democrats have won something in every election. The last two elections they have captured most of the Legisla tive ticket; In the last city election, while the Republicans elected, their candidate for Mayor, the Democrats got the Con troller and the Treasurer, and an even break in the City Council. That body Is evenly divided between the two parties, and the Republican Mayor cannot turn a wheel. Democratic politicians believe, and with considerable reason, that If Judge Turner Is nominated for Governor he will carry the county by one of the largest majori ties ever given any man In the county's history. There is no disputing the fact that Judge Turner is immensely popular In his own county. Two years ago the Democratic Legislative ticket was elected here, partly, it is true, because of the anti-Wilson feeling in the Republican party; but much of its success was due to a local wish to see 'Turner returned to the United States Senate. ' There is, moreover, a bitter sentiment against the railroads In Spokane, which the recent unsuccessful fight of the Spo kane Shippers' Association with the Northern roads intensified tenfold. In the local mind Judge Turner typifies the anti-railroad sentiment. Spokanp Republicans went Into, the last aitcn witn uovernor McBrlde, and his defeat has undoubtedly left bitterness In their hearts. Many Republicans have been Interviewed by the local press and have declared openly their Intention to support Turner. The Republican state ticket in Spokane County Is up against a desperate fight. The only ray of hope which has appeared thus far is the pros pective knifing of Judge Turner by the Byrne contingent. Pierce Given More Than Quota. SEATTLE. June 11. The Democratic State Convention was called to meet at Bellingham, Tuesday, August 2, by the State Committee, which was In session here today. The representation was fixed at one delegate for every 50 votes cast for the Democratic candidates for Con gress two years ago, averaging the vote of the three. The convention will con tain 672 delegates. Pierce County demanded and obtained ten additional delegates, upon the ground that the Democratic vote there was un usually light in 1902, and also because of its election of a Democratic Mayor this Spring.

CONSTANT VIGIL MAINTAINED Jerome Will Again Try to Learn What the Young New Yorker Knows of the Famous Place of Canfield. NEW YORK, June 11. Believing that Reginald Vanderbilt, upon whom repre sentatives of the District Attorney'3 office for several months nave unsuccessfully endeavored to serve a subpena compell ing him to appear as a witness in crimi nal proceedings against Richard A. Can field. Is In this city, detectives have been, stationed around the Neilson residence, on Fifth avenue, since last evening. When It was reported yesterday that young Vanderbilt had suddenly left Philadelphia, where he had been for several weeks, a thorough search of the places in this city frequently visited by him was begun, by a detective armed with a subpena. After a careful but fruitless search, the detective evidently concluded that Vanderbilt. If really In the city, was at the residence of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Neilson, on Fifth avenue, and an all night vigil in the vicinity of the mansion was begun. Nothing developed during: the night, but today the detective suc ceeded in slipping Into the house past a maid while the latter was picking up the morning papers at the door. A moment later, however, the detective Is said to have met determined opposition In the form of anothe'r servant, who demanded the intruder's business. When the detective replied he de sired to see Mr. Vanderbilt, he was in formed that Mr. Vanderbilt was not in the house. The detective was ordered from the premises by the negro, and on leaving again took up ius station on the opposite side of the street. Later, a second attempt was made by two detectives to enter the house. rA. but ler answered the bell, but when asked If Reginald Vanderbilt was In, promptly slammed the door. A few minutes later the bell was again rung, and again the butler appeared. "I want to see Mr. Vanderbilt, and I want to see him quick," emphatically ex claimed the detective. "The house is closed for the Summer and every one has gone away," was the response. "We know Mr. Vanderbilt Is inside, and we want to see him," persisted the de tective. The only answer was the slam ming of the big door. The proceedings In which Vanderbllt's testimony Is desired were brought against Richard A. Canfield by the District At torney, In an endeavor to show that Can field was the proprietor of a gambling house. Reporter Is Arrested. The watch upon the Neilson residence was continued through the day. Among the watchers who remained on guard all day were a number of newspaper men. Two of the reporters who incurred the displeasure of Frederick Gebhard, Mrs. Vanderbllt's uncle, were arrested on a charge of malicious mischief, but were released on $500 bond. Mr. Gebhard was standing on the steps of the Neilson residence conversing with a lawyer's cleric when his attention was directed to two reporters standing near by. At Mr, Gebhard's request, the clerk ordered the reporters to move away, but they declined to do so, and when Mr. Gebhard rushed toward them to Insist that they go away, snapshots were turned on him. Mr. Gebhard appeared to be very angry, and when he heard the click of the cameras which were pointed toward him, he Insisted that a patrolman on duty In front of the house place the two reporters under arrest. They were taken to a nearby police sta tion, but a brother reporter came to their assistance and furnished bail of JSOft in each case before they were locked up. Iate this afternoon a patrolman whoso regular post of duty Includes the vlcfra ity of the Neilson' residence was caljed to the house. He remained Inside about ten minutes, and upon coming out said he had been through the house and Vanderbilt was not there. Mr. Gebhard came from the house shortly after the patrolman's visit, and said to the de tectives and reporters who had been on guard since last night: "Mr. Vanderbilt Is not In the house. He has not been there and I have not seen him. I don't know where he Is." This did not put an end to the vigil, however; and as night came on the watchers remained on guard. HOTELS TTJRIT BOWIE OUT.
