Friends Greet Rep. ‘Rah, Ra, Ral Our Hero Home From Washington; Makes Speech at Station A tremendous and wildly enthusiastic mob of exactly 173 persons ‘Was gathered at the King st. station last night to extend a welcome home to Congressman Will Trimmer Humphrey. Our congressman was visibly affected as he looked over the sea of faces—i73 faces—and there was noticeable in his voice a ring of deep sincerity when he told the vast assemblage of 173 persons that he was glad to get home. In the surging throng of 173 persons were many patriots, includ. ing a huge delegation of seven Alaskans (Guggenhelm men), precinct leaders, their wives, prominent politicians who are now on the payroll, other prominent. politic! who used to be on the payroll, and still other prominent politicians who hope to get on the payroll. HAD A FINE JOURNEY | Congressman Humphrey spoke feelingly of his hopes of reelec tion. He had come from the national capital at considerable personal fnconvenience, though, he confessed, at’ no personal expen: Indeed, he said, he had had a splendid journey across the conti nent. He spoke in highest terms of praise of the Oriental Limited which had conveyed him to Seattle He had en route enjoyed all the comforts and luxuries that one could reasonably expect in the fineat and costliest hotel. He had traveled in style and it had cost him noth ing. He would charge the public for the journey—both ways—at 20 cents a mile, which would give him a handsome profit. (Roara of silence.) Though he had been long absent, serving the nation, he was good ®t remembering faces, and he recognized many old friends, Some faces were new to him, but he would like, {f time permitted, which, un fortunately, it didn’t, to shake every man and woman present by the hand These kind words were directed at the commercial travelers, tour ists, Pullman porters, conductors, brakemen, gatemen, station master the man behind the cigar counter, two bootblacks, six Japanene boys fn uniforms and red caps, and one blind pencil peddler, who helped to Make up the enormous concourse. He said he was especially glad to see the ladies present, of whom there were nine. He neglected to mention that he scoffed at woman suffrage only four years ago. He was glad to see Alaska represented, too, But he forgot to re eal! his vote against the Alaska railroad bill in committee. It was a powerful speech, nevertheless, and roused the stalwarts to a high pitch of frenzy q Steven G. Hull ndpat candidate B26th district, blew a tin horn RAH-RAH!

Griffiths, non- partisan candidate against Humphrey for congress. It will be worth your while. Hanson is, as the republican paper in Port Angeles said, “THE MAN OF THE HOUR.” Seattle has a chance---a mighty good chance---to elect a Seattle man to the United States senate. Seattle should elect Ole Hanson, against whom not one word has been said by anyone throughout this entire campaign. Come to Dreamland tonight and hear THE MAN OF THE HOUR, Ole Hanson.

The democratic candidate, Charles G. Heifner, fell several thousand votes below both Humphrey and Landon. If Landon could have obtained only 500 votes of the many thousands that were wasted on the democratic candidate two years ago, Humphrey would not now be a member of congress.

Both cities are on the Black Sea. |The Russian ambassador in Constantinople has been ordered to demand his passports. Simultaneously, a message from Petrograd says all Russian consuls in Turkey have |been recalled. Russia, however, has not yet formally declared war. | Odessa the fourth city in size in Russia. It has half a million population. Much American property, it is stated, was destroyed in the bombardment. Turkey’s action in joining the Germans and Austrians in arms is today believed to be certain to drag Italy into the war on the Anglo-Franco-Russian allies’ side. With Turkey a participant in the war, diplomats here declare, it is certain Greece, ‘Roumania and Bulgari a would also be drawn into the struggle. If Italy enters the war, it is considered certain that it would be on the side of the Anglo-Franco-Russian Its original declaration of hostilities will be against Turkey, it is thought, since Tur- key’s entrance into the field promises to jeopardize interests which are vital to the Italians. The opinion was general, however, that with conditions as they are now, Italy can- not fight Turkey without fighting Austria as well. This would align it against Germany, to, though it was thought likely enough they might never be actually opposed to each other, since their frontiers nowhere adjoin. So far an Turkey is concerned, it! wan assumed that Italian cam: paign would be by sea | In case of hostilities with Aus-| ltria, the supposition was that King | Victor Emmanuel's troops would invade that country's Italian prov- inces: with a view to occupying | them permanently. | There would also be every prob: | ability of fighting between the two navies | A Queer Tangle | Greece will sasurediy be with | the allies and against Turkey aod i ite friends, ; | lt is not certain That Tt wit be ‘with Italy, however, jealousies having developed between the two nations over their Albanian ambi-/ tions Such a situation as would de velop with Italy and Greece on the same «ide so far as the allies are concerned, both opposed to Turkey, | and yet fighting between them selves over Albania, would be quite in keeping with the tangled condl-| tion of affairs tn the southeast Allles Win Bulgarians Roumania has from the first been considered friendly to the al Hes, but Bulgaria was at the out-| wet posed to be pro-German.
