I talked at great length with Woodrow Wilron about Harvey's sup port last August, at the governor's home in Sea Girt, N.

Harvey by teking matters into bis own hands aod ing the gang, Col, Har vey, however, did not suffer as did the Inembers of the democratic fang by what Wilson had done. < “THE ORIGINAL WILSON MAN” He boasted that he wae the original Wilson man. fon to be angered at Wilson, as bad the gang members. Therefore he continued His boosting. This boosting did for Wilson just what Wall \atreet, which Col, Harvey serves, wanted it to do. Ii made Wilson look like a Wail street man, It made them say: = “Well, If Col. Harvey | kes Wail street, Wilson must be a Wall «treet favorite.” Undoubtedly Harvey's support of Wilson was 4 li atreet trick, in spite of Wilson's rly belief that such a trick waa “a remote possibility.” And Wilson's tion in publicly letting Harvey know that he didn’t want Harvey's support, was only a brave, bold W! blow in defending himself against J. Plerpont Morgan and Wall street. THE RETURN Col, Watterson's alliance with Col. Harvey in the Wilson matter Is Wall street's return blow. Col. Watt ia not a progressive. When it comes to a choice between Big Bh and the people, he is invart- ably found, with other old-fashioned of both parties, on the side of Rig Business, In throwing Harwy everboard, Wilson has done a thing that ought to win him the of the public, no matter how much Wall street erfes “Ingratit He had no rea Harper's Weekly, which is plainly Business,” carried Wilson umn for months, Witeon finally, last tinue it, despite the fact that he was @rgan of Wall street and the head of its editorial col- asked Harper's to discon- friewd of the editor. ae = “{ consider Cotterill the aniest the office of mayor of Seattle. more conversant with the intricate ety government than Mr. Cotterill, the good sense to elect bim.

Carroll WHERE COTTERILL STANDS A Series of Short Extracts From His Platform Showing Just What He Thinks About the Various Important Municipal Issues. BY GEORGE F. COTTERILL THE ELECTRIC COMPANIES’ MERGER The announced merger of the various electri¢ companies of Western Washington, including particularly the Seattle Electric Company, with its municipal franchises, imposes an immediate duty upon this city for self-protection. A physieal valuation of the Seattle Electric property, just ascertainment of actual investment in facilities in use, and their pregent cost of reproduction, should be made by or under the direction of competent city officials, and become a record of the true value of this property at the time of this merger, if it is to be permitted by the state authorities. It is at such merger times that the various modern corporation de- vices for watering stocks, or issuing bonds for inflated purchase con- siderations, based on income at extortionate rates, rather than fair con- struction value, are invariably juggled into the capitalization or bonds and the people's burdens thereby increased. The city of Seattle is the senior partner in this proposed merger, and must not be a silent one, Her people have more at stake than all others combined, Her officers must be a guard at home and at Olympia, watching every stage of this proceeding and protecting the city’s interests at every turn.
