Governor Albert E. Mead, in a speech
to the Washington State Press associa
tion convention at Vancouver this
"We have nothing to elve out for
publication," said Secretary Madsen,
''since our plans have not matured yet.
We have, however, organized a Pacific
Coast association, but our exact position
with the I. L. M. & T. A. has not yet
been defined.
"Of course the change was made to
further strengthen our organization.
The grainhandlers are affiliated wi'h
the longsrnremen in the new associa
tion but as to the sailors well, they
have their own organization."
With the organization of the Pacific
coast association the names of the vari
ous locals have been changed so that
the union formerly known here as No
264, is now known as local No. 5. and
local No. 265 has been changed to lo

his remarks by
bers in this way: "Honorable chair
man, gentlemen of the press and fellow
candidates."
Before the governor had finished
Frank B. Cole caused a storm of ap
plause bv getting up and Interrupting
Mead long enough to suggest that If
the candidates would all go down in
the auditorium 8nd the delegates to
the convention take the platform the
audience would be much larger than it
was. From the remarks of these two
speakers an apt idea of the convention
may be formed. It Is nothing If not a
lobbying vehicle for candidates for elec
tion in the state primaries September 8.
Kefer to Direct Primary.
Assistant Attorney General Knicker
bocker, of Washington, re;id a paper by
.Attorney General Atkinson interpreting
the direct primary law with especial
reference to the sections designating the
manner of nominating a governor and
to the parts of sections 2K nnd 29 re
lating to political advertising.
The paper was written especially for
the convontlon in order that it might
have as wide publicity as possible
through the press . of the state as a
great majority of the voters are finding
the new primary law confusing. Mr.
Atkinson says that thousands of votes
will bo wasted ' unless the method of
choosing a gubernatorial nominee is
made plain.
According to the specifications of the
primary law when there are four or
more candidates for governor the vot
ers must designate a first and a sec
ond choice. In the event that no first
choice candidate gets 40 per cent of the
total vote then the votes ror rirst ancl
second choices are counted and the can
didate having the moBt of both Is nom
inated. Thus a man may receive more first
choice votes than any other yet not
have the required 40 per cent and some
other candidate with fewer first choice
votes but enough second choice votes
to make his aggregate a plurality of all
lhe votes cast and secure the nomina
tion for governor. As there are five
candidates already announced in the
Republican party for Mr. Mead's shoes.
Including Mr. Mead himself, the fight
for the honor Is being waged keenly
and no man can predict 11m outcome.
Work for Kidpath. f
The talk that the governorship lies
between Mead and Cosgrove Is without
foundation. The men from Spokane are
psylnir nothlnsr hut making a quiet and
effective campaign for Colonel Rldpath
of the Falls City. The colonel is almost
sure to receive a majority in the east
side districts and he is well liked
throughout the state.
Then there's former Governor- Mo
Bt'Ide, who is a flnisHed campaigner
and is said to have made a secret
alliance with the leaders of the paVty In
Seattle. To say that any one candidate
has a olneh Is to open one's self to the
accusation of being a mere peddler of
Domnast.
The election of officers this morn
ing by the press association will be
watched closely by the dJfferent politi
cal Interests. The result will be taken
as an augury of the way the political
winds are blowing the straws of the
press.
Seattle has been chosen as the place
of the convention next year.
