ANKENY NoTrer fo ow by & o'clock anne. Main 1060) @ copy at ve 0 AND HIS TESTIMONIALS eileen The Seattle Times yesterday printed, at advertising space rates, a page of letters from United States senators, all of] whom spoke highly of Senator Levi Ankeny and pronounce e1 him a valuable man in the upper -halls of congress Every one of these senators lied. They lie! knowingly and deliberately, just as Senator Ankeny would lie about them if he were asked so to do. Every man who sits in the United States senate—Senator Piles included—knows that Senator Ankeny is not only of no value as a congressional representa- tive of this state, but, on the contrary, is a disgrace to the peo- ple who sent him to Washington. He purchased, with dollars and cents, his seat in the sen- ate, which in itself should be sufficient, now that the people have the power in their hands, to forever keep him out of public life. With this record he went to Washington. For six years there he has spent a great deal of his time sleeping about the lobby of his hotel, in the senate committee rooms and in his seat in the senate chamber. His life there is re sponsible for the condition of the man as he is today. He is utterly incapable. That the people of this state should vote to return him to the national capitol seems impossible. That the people of King county should permit themselves to be bound to sup port him because of any agreement made at the time of the election of Senator equally impossible. Even Senator Piles and the few men who entered into this agree ment would be perfectly justified in declining to fulfill their end of it. When they pledged themselves to support an Eastern Washington man at the expiration of Senator An keny’s term—that man to be Ankeny if he were a candidate they had a right to assume that the man they would be called upon to support would be mentally, physically and morally fit to associate with his fellow men. In supporting Ankeny they are supporting a man who does not fit to this measure. The state of Washington wants honest men as its repre Sentatives in the senate. It wants no drunkards or corrup- Piles, seems tionists. It wants men with clear heads and clear eyes—not men with befuddled brains and bleary eyes. [t wants men who may gain and hold the respect of their colleagues—not men of disgusting habits and with whom association breeds contempt. not stoop to bribery to gain an end Senator Ankeny doesn’t fill the bill. He is all that we do not want, and possesses none of the qualifications required The lowest creature to be found in the slums of Seattle would be more acceptable, for he lacks the means of corrupting weak men, who, without temptation, would not fall. Otherwise, there would be little choice. It wants moral, not immoral men—men who would And this is said, notwithstanding these testimonials from |! expected to sift out the speculat ) ° fellow senators. Condemned by Fire Chief Bringhurst and a committee from the | @¥Siting settlemen' Central Labor council, the fire alarm system that the Western Union Telegraph company seeks to install in Seattle seems to be fated to stay out. If there is any question at all as to its efficiency, Mayor Miller should veto the ordinance now before him. If Seattle is to have another alarm system, it should be of unquestioned merit. Our own Jim Ham Lewis defeated in his efforts to secure the democratic nomination for governor of Illinois. But he carried the county in which Chicago is situated by a large plurality, and that ought to heal his wounded pride. Some people back here amile when one mentions Jim Ham, but there are mighty few of these smiling kind who have done half as well. The county fair to be given im Seattle in September should be helped along by every loyal citizen. It will be a splendid thing for the community and will enable us to get in closer touch with those of the rural districts upon whom we are dependeat for many of our luxuries and necessities of life. Today the primary campaign begins in earnest. One month from today it ends. And then we will all let go for a sufficient time to moisten our hands and will then take hold again until November. We will surely have enough of it. John Cort, John and Thomas Considine and Harry Leavitt should be the proudest men in Seattle this week. They are the fathers of all the Eagles, and the family they have raised would do credit to @ny man or group of men, Can you hear the Eagles sc ream — = = Se SS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.
