? AM PILES' ELECTION
The election of Samuel H. Piles to
the United States senate ' y the Wash
ington legislature will cause surprise
to those who are not on the ground anil
familiar with the incidents of the last
few days which have been so decisive
In results. The task that has been ac
complished by those behind his candi
dacv is marvelous. They have hail one
of the han'est uphill fights that ever
has taken place in Washington pol'tics.
They were handicapped in the begin
ning by the fact that King county and
Seattle had been thoroughly discred
lted by the imbecile leadership of the
republican party in that county and by
the cl<ss of men which were sent by it
to the legislature.
In the last two senatorial contests
the Seattle legislative delegations sold
their constituents out before the ses
sions were half over, and many of the
traitors are on the present delegation.
To further complicate matters, there
were two other candidates from Seat
tle, one of whom, John L. Wilson, had
considerable strength outside of tiis
own cou ty and had the support of
nearly all the leading republican daily
papers in the state, including the Post
IotellU-encer, his own paper. An
agreement had been signed sealed and
delivered by Piles and Wilsoi and their
friends wherein it was provided that
when it should become apparent that
Piles could not be elected the vote of
Kin county should go to Wilson.
Thus the Piles men had admitted their
probable defeat before the battle be
gun.
Against Seattle were the thoroughly
organized Pierce county republicans
who have dictated the legislation of
the stale of Washington since the over
throw of the fusion forces in that state.
It bad a record behlud it of fulfl leo
promises, and consequently the confi
dence of the people. It elected .* nkeo\
two years ago and it was na ur.il tha'
It should receive his support in return
It was Jacked by the Nor horn Pacific
and the Oregon Railway 4 Navigation
Compa v's ictere-ts.
To * n in the face of such a si uation
was what Piles' managers set out 10
accomplish, and they succeeded.
Piles' greatest strength, of course,
was the influence of the Great North
am interests. Two years ago that
company, under the leadership of J. D.
Farrell, exerted its influence to defeat
the rai, road commission bill, to which
the Kirg county republicans were com
mitted, and to defeat Seattle's senator
ial candidate. At that time the prom
ise was made to the Seattle people that
help would be given them to elect *
senator at .the next election and San'
Piles was agreed upon as the next Seat
tle candidate.
The Great Northern has made gooi
In face of circumstances that made it>
undertaking ?eem impossible of accom
plishment. It was not supposed the
material that had been running the re
publican politics of Seattle cou d be or
ganized in such a way as to gain success
for any save those who were in uolitx^
for what there w s in it. But J. D.
Kartell accomplished the apparently
impossib e. Great is J. D. Farrell !
The election of Sam Piles and the de
feat of John L. Wilson will add much
to the prestige of the Seattle Time
and detract from that of the ie: ttle
Post-Intelligencer. Though not a re
publican paper, the Times made the
fight for Piles, while the Post-Intelli
gencer. of course, suppoited its owner,
Wilson. To make matters worse fcr
Wilson, Piles was elected by the assist
ance of the Sweeny vote and the Spo
kane Spoke?mau-I\eview, which has al
ways fought Wiison, was the Sweeny
mouthpiece.
The people of the cit, should not foi -
get to take extraordinary precaution
against fire. While the municipal
water system acd fire apparatus are in
excellent condition the best way to pro
tect the city from a conflagration is to
prevent, fire from starting.
