The Mueller man say “La has spent hundreds of dollars in sa loons trying to make votes for Geo. M. Brown, the silk stocking candi date for mayor. They also say that with a Hamilton, represnting the water works company of the town, has been trying to unload stock on the people to the am: nt of $40,000 when the estimated value of the en- Ure plant, it is said, is $9,000. It’s a sort of three-cornered fight Muller against Brown for mayor. and Hallton in the middle to stand the blows. The sides range up thusly: Geo. M. Brown, candidate for mayor, “Lafe” Hamilton and the county commissioners on one side— j And Jobn Mueller, present Mayor of Georgetown, the Seattle Brewing & Ma'ting company and the saloon and pool room element on the other. Brown ts said to have the support of the workingmen and the strik- ing brewery employes. Brown also is said to have the support of the majority of the business and pro- fessional men of the town. Mueller already has hie cohorts Mned up with great skill and with greater strength, While it is as-/ serted that the Muellerites repre- | sent the tougher and lower element | of the town, it is equally asserted | that there are also aligned with it) many of the town's best people. And the people. mon people—not the politiclans—< it ie sair, are satisfied with the present order of things and with John Mueller as mayor. This split is depinred on both sides in Georgetown. It has al- ways been the aim to keep politics out of the elections, but this year it's i political scrap of the hottest kind. Some of the silk stockings even £0 80 far as to assert positively that Mueller was rallroaded into officé at the last election, and that he holds bis seat, not by the will of the people, but by the will of a gang | of councilmen and ringsters who worked just before the last election to get Mueller in as mayor, and who succeeded in switching him in. Now if this state of things prom- ises to continue in the town, some of the silk stockings have threat- ened to use all their influence to- ward annexation to Beattle, where they claim they can at least get protection from the saloon element. But the other side contends that it would be another case of jumping from the frying-pan into the fire, That {s, the council and the mayor's side say this. Which ts, also, ‘tig sald, the side of the brewery. The whole mess will come to # focus next Wednesday evening, when a caucus will be held in Ber- tholdi’s hall, in eGorgetown, when the names of Geo. M. Brown and John Mueller will come up for nomination for the mayoralty— And when the hottest political fight in Georgetown for years will be fought to a finish.
