That he didn't carry Hughes to vic: tory with him in this state was due not to any fault of his own, but to the short-sighted narrowness of the| republican machine. Altho it was never given the same publicity, there wan an incident here which practic: ally paralleled the disastrous treat mont of Hiram Johnson, which, it In generally conceded, lost Hughes Cali fornia, When Hughes came to Washing. ton, In the course of his swing around the country, the standpat republicans tried to use him to swing the # against Poindexter in the primary. Poindexter was not even mentioned in advance plans for Hughes’ enter tainment; Humphrey, his opponent for the nomination, on the other hand, was to be thrown with the Presidential candidate on every pos- sible occasion. The inference would be plain-- Hughes didn't consider | Potndexter of enough tmportance to tee him in his own state. Potndexter's organization scented the plot in advance and the senator rushed across the state and met} Hughes in Spokane. As the two were wart personal friends they naturally ~~ lot of each other after that— harm had been done. ‘The state, because of the originally announced plans for Hughes’ enter tainment, got the idea that the can- | didate stood for everything that the standpatters expoused, And Wilson wan given a handsome majority. | The close of Potndexter’s campaign | that year brought the first real hint of suspicion into the minds of his supporters. His record wae etill exemplary—- but It had been learned that he had made a few new types of acquaint ances—among them J. B. Chilberg, the banker now under indtetment tn connection with the failure of the Scandinavian American bank of Se- attle. At that period, of course, there was no hint of suspicion against Chilbere —bdut It seemed a bit peculiar, just the mame, that the avowed—and| proved——champion of the people| should select a man of Chilberg’s call. ber for a playmate. es Seatile’s general strike and Poin Boy, 15, Makes | Spell Record, MEMPHIS, Tenn.
