Walker as member of the Schoo! board, and his defeat of the Triple Alliance candi- @ates, brings up a most illuminating phase of American Politics. © For years Walker has been a_ leader in thought. In 1910, for instance, he led the “insurgents,” as they were called then, against the standpat republtcans. In that fight, labor men, grangers and railroad men contrib- Uted largely to the progressive fight—and together they Managed to pul! out a bit ahead. * In 1912 Walker was one of the men who threw party lines verbo rd when it seemed to him that the interests of the gountry at large required it, and he joined the progressive, or bull moose, party. And thousands of union men, rail- road workers and grangers joined with him. And so on, thru the years, George H. Walker was gener vty aligned politically with the majority of the union men , this city. There was a bond of sympathy between them s-cause George H. Walker was, and is, a progressive. + Walker has lost none of his progr yveness—yet we find arrayed against the Triple Alliance candidates. Why? The answer is plain. When the attempt is made to dif ferentiate the voters by sses, naturally George H. W alker, lawyer, finds himself deliberately estranged by the Triple liance. The class issue becomes, then, the dominant one nd when that is the issue everyone outside of that particu- r class naturally seeks to accomplish its defeat. Seattle labor, by joining with other progressive elements, been able in the past to accomplish many worth-while for this city and state. By estranging these ele- ts it becomes, as The Star stated yesterday, an inef- t minority instead of part of the progressive majority progressive oK1ng FRAUD, EH?
