A GHOST OF 1896 How George Turner Became United States Senator JUDGE WINSOR TELLS A Record mark a* Mu»U«*-liil< llon Hushed— Can a >. li-llt . ■peetlHcf tlMii Vote for ll'iK On last Saturday night, in Armory tail, Seattle. Judge Richard Winsor, in a ipeech made a most icathlng arrulgn ment of Goo. Turner. According lo his story, and he said he had a type written and verified copy of the record wbict) h-hs destroyed, gave the facts in con nection with the election of Geo. Tur ner as United States senator liy the no torious fusion legislature of 1896. He said lie had the record, could prove every word of what he eaid and delieil any one to disprove it. The imtn who can swallow him in the light of this revelation, oe he populist, free silver republican. Bryan democrat or Parker gold standard democrat, has a political stomach that is equal to any emergency. Ho said: I am astonished that a democratic rally near here is to be addressed by Senator Warburtoti of Tacoina. I say lam as tonished baOUMi BO man knows better than Warburton the political record of George Turner, and no one knows bet ser than Warburton the history of the corruption connected with that affair. I am astonished that a parly which claims to have for its aim a reformation would begin by supporting ai4pre«enta tive of iniquity and sin and political prostitution. I wonder if the people of Washington can fall so low as to place in tlio execu tive chair a man such as Turner U. In lS'.Xi, when it was teen that the people's party representatives werQ likely to control the legislature of tlit, state they were met at the capitol by representa tives from the headquarters of corrup tion. So damnable and bold were the methods employed that from them aro^e a stench that spiead over the whole stale nnd even over the whole nation. So foul was this corruption that there was an investigation relative to the charge that the seßatorthlp had been purchased. I know whereof I speak, and I stand ready to prove every word I say. I 'n .-xii^alloii Hllfcltrd I l> The investigating committee got ao close to tho truth in the matter that every effort was made to stop it and to bury forever the evidence that was dug up. Whilo witnesses were being brought from Tacoma.Turner appeared, and early in the morning, when the committee made a partial report, one of Turner's friends arose and moved that the committee be discharged. That motion was carried by the majority, which that man controlled and which he used as instruments to bring about hit election. I v*ahf to ask any honest mair Would you, in the face of a charge that you had purchased a seat in the United States senate, sit, and see an investigat ing committee discharged before it had done its work? Or would you demand that it continue its" work rintil your name had been cleared forever of the sligma placed upon it? Every one of you. if you had been wrongfully charged, would have demanded a thorough and exhaustive examination to prove your honesty. I charge U«*re tonight, in the face of the people of Washington, that George Turner was as dumb as a piece of wood. The investigation died, and his railroad Commission bi.l died also. The popu list pariy saw to it that the bill was properly buried. The populists wanted a commission e'.cbted and controlled by the people* not by a man who could be bought a;:d 6ontVollcd by the railroads. They|ivontetf no dictators to control the commission. Ank« Hlk I':iiij Io Vote fur 'I. nl This man Turner was then at Olym pta. Conditions became such that one | man who was there,'and who is before |me hero tonight, said I' me: "For I God's sake, let us complete tfiis sena torial election in a hurry or we will all be bought up." He saw the movement of corruption that was going: oh; anil realized its enormous proportions". He did uot /car that ho would be licH-^ht, but he saw \vlr\t «:is being doM with other*. On this pet commission bill Turner expect 3to ride into power in the state with his record in the populist party. Even in the light of this lie stands by ana asks the support <>[ that party. I want to ask again: Have the peo ple of Washington sunk to low as to want to elevate such a man as Turner to the executive chair when a clean young man like Mead, against whom the linger of reproach has never been raised, is a candidate for that posi tion? . Itrwnrd* lor Jiorvicr* .ludgo Winsor hero stated that he hail iv his possession the records rela tive to the passnge of an appropriation of Mooooitenvtbly totett the oomtlta tionality <>f the freight regulation bill, but in fact a measure intended as a re ward for political services. Tlie attor ney general's report, said the speaker, would show what was done. "Nothing," said Judge Winsor, "was ever done but to steal this money." He referred to one man, "who spent his time running like a Coraanche Indian from the bar room of theOlympia hotel to senatorial headquarters. And that man,"' said the speaker, "received 82.250 of the money, while the rest of the $j(»00 with the exception of 8300, wll divided up I for alleged legal serviced.'' Judge Winsor continued.: The astonishing thing- to me is that there was a balance of $.">OO left when the dividing had been done. I wrote a letter to the attorney general when I learned of this division of tlio money, and asked him if it wore true that such a division had been made. lie could not deny it. 1 have the letters to prove what I say and will print them if neces sary. Record* Stolen, b:i! II > II is Copy The records of the investigating com mittee; I want to say, were stolen from the stenographer's room, so they could lie burled. The corruptionists thought they would (tover riso again, like Banquo's ghost. Cut I was there to watch that investigation and 1 did watch it. I took the precaution to pay the stenographer out of my owl? pocket for a duplicate copy of the records" of the committee, and I have preserved those records to thn day. I want to say to that party of corruptionists that if they want to deny my statements I am ready to give those records to the newspapers to be, published to prove my assertions. I have the testimony given before that committee relative to the purchase of that scat in the senate. The corruptionists thought all this testi mony had been destroyed, but it has been preserved to meet them and damn them. Turner and lli<- Kailrondk George F. CotterlU, of Seattle, who was a democratic candidate for oon gre--sinan two years ago, is ajainst the Stevenson nominee for governor, lay* [the FairiieU? Standard. In a signed i statement to ih'a public he has this to ; say "f his fonrfsr political colleague. "Mr. Turner is not sincere. He was one of the plutocratic ring which framed Parker's nomination as a re buke to Iloosefelt for interfering in the I Northern S-curities cdbtl and breaking I up that illegal merger. His sympathies j and interests have always been and arc | still with the moneyed interests lie now j professes to oppose, if is announced I hostility to tho railroads in 1 Washing ton is not genuine, and v democrat who is forced lo choose between a republi can and a hypocrite must either vote tor a republican or lake to the woods. "Twoatorietare current wMefa will ■how that real democrats who stand for something have BO placa to lay their heads in the Washington campaign. One is that George Stevenson, the rail road lobbyist, who for years has done tho railroad's political work in the state, is now one of the councellors" of the Turner forces. The other is that the Harriman interests are supporting Turner. If this bo true, the only choice a democrat cr tt)3 people have is a choice of raili\ads.

Each and all of them wore declared to be ruining the country; but when the day of reckoning came and the verdict of the people was handed in on their ballots, judgment was given— save in two cases in 44 years —for th« republicans. Impartial history acquits every republican president of criminal intent and acts. In doing Ilia duty to the people Mr. Lincoln became a martyr. No ruler was ever more vili fied and denounced. His body in life. Ins spirit in adftb, represent the divid ing line net—ron loyalty and disloyalty, between the cohesion of the states or their disintegration. When a demo crat, be he leailer or follower, writes or talks of the republican party as a nation destroyer through Us measures or il« presidents, it is because he does nor, know or does not care to remember that Buchanan, who was a democrat, shaped the course of his administration so that [the advocates of secession might haven [quick and easy victory; it was thin ! democrat president who left to his re- I publican successor and the loyal people he h:ul been chosen to govern, an empty treasury,a corporal's guard of an army, a wreck of a navy,dismantled fortresses and legions of officeholders ulcerated with a disloyalty that the stern lesson* of war and years of Christian peace have not entirely eradicated. And be fore Buchanan were cTemocratic admin; iterations whose acts were seemingly preludes to his crime. The lineage of, the democratic party is a record of broken pledges conceived in political iniquities and strangled at their birth. It is the democratic party to which the people owe four years of civil war and eight years of such misgovernment that the rich became poor and the poor starved. It has been the province of the re- party to undo the work of its ■ opponent;--' i" has a£ain and again j saved the nution from degenerating t<> | a low grade in nationalities, and it has enforced respect throughout the world for a country which the democrats had brought into contempt. Of course the democrats assail repub lican presidents and their nominees for the place of chief execution; they do this more by innuendo than by direct accusation —a stabbing in t^e darlc rather than a fight in the bUiiligfit. But there is always this in favor of 'lie re publican rtrt/'s presidents fr6m tha lime they begin to make history for the nation—that for their support In the ordenl of public criticism they have had life constitution of the Union,' its congtessts, and the voice of the peo ple.
