RIVAL FOR SWEENEY Millionaire Campbell Would Also Go to'the Senate. f-v EXPECTS SPOKANE'S SUPPORT p-taiMt Candidate Says Money Will idNot- Be Used In Furthering His Ambition to Serve His State at National Capital. SPOKANE, "Wash.. Nov. 12. (Special.) A. B. Campbell -will be a candidate for the United States Senate and will contest with Charles Sweeney for the support of the Spokane delegation. Like Sweeney, Campbell made $1,000,000 or so out of mines- The fact that the Spokane delega tion, with the exception of one member, agreed Friday to support Sweeney"does .not daunt Campbell, who says he has strong- hope3 of getting home support. In an Interview tonight Campbell said: '"I had been considering the advisability being a candidate for some time. I did decide to enter the lists without having received many assurances of local sup port. Many of the best and cleanest citi zens in Spokane have "asked me to be a candidate. They were not satisfied with any of the candidates already in the field, and they felt that the Scnatorship from the great young State of Washington should not be made a thing of bartering and corruption. I have nothing but con;. tempt for the corrupt methods which have prevailed too often In the election of Senators, and whether I win or lose, it will not be with the use of money. Frank T. Post, a warm personal friend and supporter of Sweeney, In commenting on Campbell's candidacy, said: "The candidacy of Campbell is palpably In the Interest of John L. "Wilson. It is designed to split the Spokane delegation and to defeat Mr. Sweeney In Mr. "Wil son's Interest. If has a plose connection with Harry "Wilson's presence In the city." has the "handicap of a record of flirting with all factions that may hurt him, but it Is reasonably certain that some Sen atorial influence will pick him up. King has 17 votes on the Speakership, Pierce 10. At the -same time, "Walter Christian, who made W. H. Hare Speaker two years ago. Is a member of the Pierce County legis lative delegation, and Pierce has been do ing outside politics better than King. until the Senatorial fight at home is set tled beyond doubt. King is not in good shape to make a fight for the organiza tion of the House or to interfere with the Senate programme. Shrew politicians see this, but it is an open question whether1 the county leaders as a whole are able to appreciate the situation. It Is not at all probable that Mead will lend any Senatorial candidate his influ ence. A story comes down from Belling ham that Harry Falrchlld, who was the real manager of the Mead campaign at all times, will develop as a Senatorial can didate. Falrchlld was a party to the agree ment that the Gubernatorial influence should not be used in the Senatorial fight arid no matter what his personal ambi tions may be, he could not ask or de mand, with good grace, that Mead help him. So far as the other Senatorial candi dates are concerned. Mead has nothing among them to put above another. His plurality in' the state was so large that he Is absolved from any obligation to any county. He'ls absolved as well from any tie to any Influence In the state, and it is likely he wlll keep his hands entirely free from the Senatorial fight. So far as the local programme is concerned, this means a stubborn fight, for help from the Governor's office, even if indirect has been counted upon as one of the possibil ities of the campaign. Something that the King County men are overlooking lsthe lumber influence In the Legislature. Notice was.served on the KING WILL DECIDE AT ONCE. Candidates for Senator Once Chosen Will Be Backed to Finish. SEATTLE. Nov. 12. (Special.) The King County Legislative delegation will decide at once upon a Senatorial candi date. The talk of Piles. "Wilson and Furth will be settled by a definite agree ment that one of the candidates be sup ported, and the delegation will be able to xive out to the state the understanding that King County Is united without pos sibility of a shift to a new aspirant. The demand will be made In explicit terms that the talk of second and third choices end. The hold-over . Senators, even before the campaign ended, an nounced that they did not propose to go into a fight that was as uncertain in its objects as the Seattle contest for Sena tor. They will demand a show-down lm mediately. The fact that the entire Republican ticket was elected and that Mead carried King by over 7000 plurality makes Piles the logical candidate for Senator. At first blush one might be Inclined to dls pute this fact, but when it is remembered that Piles staked everything on the out come his position is strengthened. Piles went Into practically every precinct in the county declaring that unless he was given the election of Lou Smith for Sheriff and a. good plurality for Mead he could not ne a good Senatorial candidate. He made his own fight the real issue in King Coun ty, and more than anything else his per sonality carried Smith through and con tributed toward doubling Mead's plural ity. That Piles will have the support of the railroad influences in King in determin ing the Senatorial issue here is unques tioned. In fact, the Hill Interests regard the question as already settled in .flies behalf. So far as they can reach. Piles will have the support, and It would be surprising if the election worked out in a manner that would displace Piles. The first step toward definitely fixing Plies as the Senatorial candidate comes next week in the "banquet planned by the Toung Men's Republican Club for A- E. Mead, Gubernatorial certainty. Piles has been selected -to preside over that ban quet, and there will speak, beside Mead, a number of prominent state Republican leaders. The banquet is intended to give formal notice to the state that King Coun ty Is- behind Piles and expects state, sup port in return for Its Republican plu ralities. ' As a strict matter of fact. King is claiming too much relative credit for Its showing. King did not have the fight to make for Mead that Pierce and Spokane, for Instance, went against. Take Pierce as an example. In that county a Democratic administration con trolled the City of Tacoma. The admin istration levied an assessment upon every ofilce-holder to win the Turner fight. The gamblers and every factor in the sport ing element were called upon to contrib ute. The police had instructions to force the sporting vote Into line. A weak-kneed Sheriff was a candidate for re-election and he did little to offset the city fight for Turner. He feared that he might endanger his own chances. There was an undercurrent In the rail road management that was inimical to Mead. F. S. Grosscup's influence was jnot clear-cut for Mead, despite the fact that he did more than any one else to nominate him. In addition, George Stev enson, who handles the saloon vote of the state better than any one else, devoted the last month of his time to Pierce County. Then, too, there were such men as Stanton "Warburton, "W. II. Doollttle, F. H. Luce. TV. H. Paulhamus. J. B. Croake. J. H. Price and J. M. Ashton working for Turner bolters, with a rela tively small following when considered in dividually, but strong In the aggregate. .Vshton weakened toward the last, but the others did not. Politicians of the state did not realize the odds against which Pierce County fought, but they do now. In claiming for King credit for the big showing made for Mead, the King County Republicans must take into consideration the fact that Pierce will make a showing of the odds ngalnst which the Republicans fought. Spokane, with another Senatorial candi date, can show. too. that Turner, a Spo kane man. cut into their vote, and both heae contentions must be overcome by King before credit can "be asked by a King County Senatorial candidate. Thus far no steps have been taken toward the organization of cither the House or the Senate. "Whatever Influence can be wielded by the Lieutenant-Governor will be thrown by Charles E. Coon toward Foster. There has never been a time when politicians were uncertain about his attitude. Coon may have to fight f on control of the Senate, but he can be relied upon to help Foster all that Is possible In the movement. The contest for the House Is open. The "West Side defeats suffered by the Repub licans In Thurston County hurt Foster. Those two Totes were his. had they been elected. Outside that no one has at tempted to figure out a gain or loss in the House. "When the Senatorial poli ticians next week begin working on the organization' of the House they" will de velop the Senatorial strength somewhat. J. G. Megler is the logical candidate , for Speaker. He Is experienced and had ' a longer legislative Tecord than any other 1 member of the House. "W. H. ,Hare was Speaker of the l&e-t House and is not in pMHiOB to k a3tbc etectios. 3-Ucter CLARK COUNTY PIONEER PASSES AWAY The Late A. A. "Wiley.

MAY OPEN SUNDAY Judge Galloway's Decision Fa-J vofs Salem Saloons. COUNCIL HAS AUTHORITY Regulations of Sale of Liquor Are by the City Charter Beyond Juris diction of a. Justice of the Peace SAXiEM. Or., Nov. 12. (Special.) Judge "William Galloway rendered a decision to day in" the first of the- Sunday-closing saloon cases, holding that Salem saloon- keepers cannot be prosecuted under the state laws for keeping open on Sundays. This decision virtually disposes of 20 to SO cases brought by Professor Drew and associates against Salem saloon men who kept their places of business open on Sunday. This was a test case and. having been decided In favor of the saloons, the pther cases will probably be abandoned. So far as Sunday saloons are concerned. Salem is now a wide-open town, for there is neither a state law nor a city ordl nance under which prosecutions may bo had. .Last Spring the City Council ordered that the Sunday-closing ordinance be en forced and for two or three Sundays the saloons were closed. Finally one saloon was opened to test the ordinance and upon seeking the advice of an attorney. the City Council learned that the Sunday closing ordinance Is fatally-defective. All the saloons then opened up on Sun day, whereupon Professor Drew began his crusade, A large number of cases were commenced and J. P. Rogers, having been found guilty, he took a writ of review to the Circuit Court. The state law was attacked on numerous grounds, but the decision by Judge Galloway Is based upon .the reason that by the charter of the city of Salem the power to regulate saloons Is left to the City CounclL The Justice of the Peace therefore had no jurisdiction to hear the case or find the defendant guilty, and Judge Galloway directs that tne charge against Rogers be dismissed.

Or., Nov. 12. (Special.)- Notwithstanding the fact that the di rect-primary law is inoperative this year, tho Republicans of Salem will nominate their candidates for city of ficers by vote at Jhe primaries. The Republican City Central Committee so decided several weeks ago and at a meeting tonight petitions were received for the- placing of names of Republican aspirants on the primary ticket. The primary eleotlon will be held No vember 15. To all appearances, the only sharp contest in the primary election will be over the nomination for City Marshal. Mayor "Waters will be renominated without opposition and for City Re corder two petitions have been filed. naming- Wylie A. Moores and S. A. lie- Fadden. Not' much interest has' been taken in this contest. For the nomina tion for City Marshal there were "four aspirants, J. "W. Lewis, Alonzo Gesner, Tom Cornelius and &. A. Hushes, but the first named filed no petition. It Is understood that his withdrawal Is In the interest of Cornelius. 1 For the nomination for Treasurer there are two aspirants, Frank Mere dith and Fred Haas. The primary elec tion next Tuesday is likely to be a lively one for a Republican nomination is almost equal to an electlonvthls year. Douglas Against Prohibition. ROSEBURG. Or.. Nov. 12.-Snecial.'

Piles management that if the holdover Senators failed to agree to the lumber men's plan of campaign for a 40-cent. rate Into Missouri River territory, the lumber influences would knife -a King County Senatorial candidate. It Is well known that outside King County but 20 persons nominated for the Legislature refused to sign the millmcn's pledge. Most of these were Democrats defeated for election. Th9 mill Influence is a factor to be counted, for there is a big vote of men interested directly In lumbering industries in the Legislature, and even If nothing else could be delivered, this Is worth considering. Thus far King has paid no attention to the mlllmen's demands. Something will probably be done, though, later In the month. The Senatorial fight Is not yet started in earnest.

A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner tlmo the large number of- hearty, vigorous old men 'at the tables; men whose ages run from 60 to SO years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile? Perhaps the spectacle Is so common as to have escaped your observation or com ment, but nevertheless It Is an object les son which means something. If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating, you will observe that t they are not munching bran crackers nor t gingerly picking their way through a menu t card of new-fangled health foods; on the ; contrary, they seem to prefer a Juicy ; roast of beef, a properly turned loin ot ! mutton, and even the deadly broiled lob- j ster Is not altogether Ignored. The point of all this Is that a vigorous ! old age depends .upon good digestion ana plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon bran crackers. There Is a certain class ot food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank pol sons, but these cadaverous, slckly-lookmg Individuals are a walking condemnation ot their own theories. The matter In a nutshell Is that If the stomach secretes the natural digestive juices In sufficient quantity, any whole some food will be promptly digested; It the stomach docs not do so, and certain foods cause- distress, one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all "difficulty, because they supply Just what every weak stom ach lacks, pepsin, hydro-chloric acid, di astase and mix.
