(Special interes Crowd plays a Foxy Game! GILLISM! You hear that word frequently during the campaign. What does it mean? Two years ago, three years ago, four years ago, the meaning of Gillism was plain. The Star coined that word and The Star knows what it meant in those — days. It meant all the dangers accruing from an unrestrained tenderloin dis- — trict. But is there any danger of Gillism today? Hypocrites pretend there is. And they know there isn’t. ; They know there isn’t because there is the red light abatement law in force and effect today, which makes a restricted district impossible no matter who is — elected mayor. ONLY ONE WEEK OR TWO AGO THE COURTS OF THIS COUNTY. CLOSED UP A DISORDERLY HOUSE LOCATED ONE BLOCK FROM THE COURTHOUSE BY ENFORCING THIS RED LIGHT ABATEMENT LAW. Does any one but a hypocrite and a willfully dishonest man or woman | suppose that any mayor, be he Gill or Trenholme, could, if he should want to, maintain a restricted district? Some of these men like George Dilling and George Cotterill, who are per sonal enemies of Gill and who are fighting him for that reason hide, hind the false cry of Gillsm. THEIRHATRED FOR GILL I THEM TO SUPPORT ANY OTHER CANDIDATE, EVEN IF HE CAME D RECT FROM THE SEATTLE ELECTRIC OFFICE. ¥ These men know that the Seattle Electric and th . ‘old special interest gang have deserted Gill for Tren- |holme. Whether the gang bosses deserted Gill be- reform, or because they feared they couldn’t use him any longer, doesn’t matter. THE FACT Prmal LINED UP FOR TRENHOLME AND AGAINST GILL. And because of this fact, and it alone, labor men, progressives of all parties, jand most of the defeated candidates, are supporting Gill. Of all the promi : gang when it was with Gill, only two prominent men, George Dilling and Mayor Cotterill, are openly supporting Trenholme. And their motive for doing so is The special interest crowd picked Trenholme in ‘the primaries and IT SPENT MORE MONEY TO NOMI- \NATE HIM THAN WAS SPENT BY ALL THE OTHER © ‘CANDIDATES COMBINED. NOW THIS ENEMY OF ‘THE PEOPLE, THIS SAME GANG THAT TRIED TO (WIN WITH GILL TWO YEARS AGO AND FAILED, REGAIN CONTROL OF THE CITY BY HARPING ON Defeated twice behind Gill, the special interest crowd switches to the other man, believing the peo- ple’s opposition to Gill will blind them to the real sit- uation, to the changed situation. It has fooled and it will fool some more good people, but not many. Two |years ago, when George Cotterill and Gill were the nominees, and when Gill had a lead of 10,000 votes, the day following primary witnessed a remarkable There was no hesi- There was no committee out explaining the soliciting of prominent progressives to come into the anti-Gill camp. The issue then was plain. The people saw it and understood it. Defeated : candidates, ministers, labor men, municipal ownership advocates, everybody who believes in clean, business-like city government, got behind Cotterill. They didn’t have to be asked. Now the foxy special interest, big business, labor- hating, franchise-grabbing concerns, who used to be ‘FOR GILL WITHOUT EXCEPTION, are WITHOUT ‘EXCEPTION FOR J. D. TRENHOLME. it’s a foxy play. They hope to deceive enough voters by this clever switch to put them in the saddle again.
