Ot HANSON has that mysterious quality of strength which prizefighters call It isn't physical. I doubt if it is spiritual. I don’t know what it is. If you have “silk” you can keep on going when a man with nothing but muscle to depend on would be “all in.” Ole Hanson has been campaigning constantly since last spring. He has traveled thousands of miles, by train and auto. thousands of le. He has talked to hundreds of people. It is doubtful if he has averaged four hours sleep in 24 since he began his campaign. He has spent just a dozen nights at home since August 1. * 7 * * * * JANSON made three speeches last night —at Ravenna park, in the Masonic hall, University district, and May’s hall, Sixth av. N. E. and 42nd. He had spoken in Ellensburg the night before. He had conferred with lo- cal leaders until 2 in the morning. He caught a train at 5 for Seattle. At noon he was submitting to a cross-examination by members of the Uni- versity faculty and student body. In the afternoon he caught up with his cor- And 7:30 found him, fresh as a daisy, at the Woodmen’s hall in Ravenna park. *-e * @ s co IE Sete tates Oe wow’.

I never voted good friends,” said the democrat, “but we don’t politics. we a ” HE CROWD came, and Hanson talked about his Plan. It is a good plan, and Hanson, a practical, a successful man, believes in it with all his heart. “The issue,” he said, “is: DON’T WASTE YOUR VOTES! W W. BLACK is a hopeless third in the sena- * torial race. He hasn't a ghost of a chance. Don’t waste any votes on him. A vote for Black is almost equivalent to a vote for Jones. Black was third choice even in the democratic primaries, falling several thousand votes short of either Turner or Cotterill on first choice votes. His nomination is a second-choice fluke. Black is far from being senatorial timber. He is a chronic office seeker, a man who has of- fered himself for all kinds of offices. His stand lacks sincerity. He claims to be a progressive democrat, but he supported “handpicked” Harmon and Clark delegates at the Walla Walla convention. In the recent primaries he has offered himself as a compromise for the progressive and standpat elements in the democratic party. Had Black been a positive character, he could ave defeated Congressman Will E. Humphrey in 1910, when thousands of progressive republi- cans stood ready to aid Black as against Hum- phrey. Black’s “progressive” campaign against Humphrey collapsed WITH THE DISCOVERY OF THE FACT THAT HE USED HIS JU- DICIAL STATIONERY TO PROMOTE THE SALE OF SOME MINING STOCK. The standpat papers, in an attempt to draw votes from Ole Hanson, are trying to make it appear that Black is a real contender in the race. This is their usual trick to split up the independent voters, but it won’t work this time. THERE IS A POSITIVE FIGHT, A DEF- INITE ISSUE, BETWEEN OLE HANSON AND W. “LORIMER” JONES. PROGRESSIVES OF ALL PARTIES SHOULD CENTER THEIR VOTES ON HANSON. THERE IS NO MIS- TAKE AS TO WHERE HE STANDS. AND HANSON CAN AND WILL DEFEAT JONES.

While Pope, in the railroad station on the edge of Hazlemuir, was telephoning, at noon today, the news of the death of the second bandit, the man = the office end of the wire heard a fusillade of shots. “They're shooting again,” said Pope, “I'll call you up again in a few minutes”—and rang ott. Pope has been sworn in as a deputy and tray- eled from Mt. Vernon north with Sheriff Wells’ + posse. in a battle with a posse at Hazelmuir, four miles north of Blaine. The posse which, since Saturday night, has been pursuing the dits, walked into an ambush. Clifford Adams, Canadian immigration inspector, fell dead at the first volley with a bullet through his brain and another through his eart, The por leader wae*killed. pisto’ Brings Down Man With Winchester All but one of the bandits took to the timber, and a battle is now In progress.

The cordon of deputies and Canadian officials was being fn closer around them, and two bloodhounds brought from ingham had been given the scent and loosed on their trail. The body of Adams lay on the track, where it fell, when the father ind mother of the dead man, summoned by telephone, reached the scene. Wild with yrlef, the aged woman fell upon the body, weeping, deaf to the racket of rifle and automatic fire coming from the woods not more than 50 yards away. Both of the dead bandits have the appearance of being Austrians, The first to fall was a small, thick-set man with red hair. The man who committed suicide to escape capture was a man of gigantic proportions. Fighting on Canadian Soil The posse, 50 strong, and led by Sheriff Wells and Sheriff Thomas of Whatcom county, was going north along the tracks when ambushed. Though hot on the scent, its members had no idea that thelr quarry was 80 close. Imuir is four miles north of BI of the line, and the battle Is taking north of Hazelmui The bandits, believed to have been five in all, were nidi few yards from the track. When the volley came, ne and on the Canadian side brus wae stationed at Hazelmuir and had joined the posse the shot through the heart. The rest of the man-hunters plunged into the forest for cover. Occasional glimpses of the bandits could be caught as they slowly retreated, dodging from tree to tree and log to log, firing as they went. The posse pressed after them, and the red-headed man fell as he leaped a fallen tree. They found him, sprawled and dead, on the other side. Expect to Kill Three Survivors The big man evidently doubled back to the track, thinking the in the woods.
