His Elimination by Legislation From Race for Su- preme Court Bench and His Entrance Into Sen- atorial Contest Prove Source of Great Disturb- ance to Senator Piles and His Friends. JOHN E. HUMPHRIES, John E. Humphries of Seattle is the key-log of the political jam of the state of Washington. Eliminated from the likelihood of occupying a place upon the supreme court bench, he now appears as a decided menace jto the success of United States Senator Samuel H.
