vs Temperature Last 3 VOL. 26. NO. 165, ~ SEATTLE, WASH., SATUR THE GOVERNOR (EDITORIAL) HE STAR announced yesterday it would give its views to- day on the candidates for governor. Gosh, but it's Howdy, folks! tee wit tc way,” Neo This announcement followed along and diligent search in the es el large field of candidates for the one leader, the real pro- Spee: om he» a! gressive, the fighting man this state needs. , . We found some fairly good men. We found some good points eth im Gal tal mes he wee about most of the candidates. But we did not find the ONE BIG ot FAMOUS’ CHARACTERS OUTSTANDING MAN. | This is the way we view the field: | Hartley, French and Coyle are conservatives. Paulhamus used to be moderately progressive, but he is now a conservative trying to look progressive. Clifford, Lamping and Revelle can be classed as progressives. “oR ter ARTLEY is a successful business man, an able manager, a sincere believer in conservatism. His political foes call him a “labor hater,” but he is probably as fair-minded as regards labor as a conservative business man can be. French is a farmer who has been much in polities and has held public offices for many years. He was a member of the machine in the state senate, but his record was fairly good on progressive measures. He served as an official in the Hart administration and has the solid backing of the Hart machine. He, too, is a sincere conservative. Coyle should be a progressive, but he isn’t. governor he has not distin = rnieasures. Tn the last ler Coyle permits his friends to influence him too much in par- doning matters. Worst of all, he is opposing the Bone Power Bill. But Coyle has some real ability. + - * AULHAMUS made a moderately good record as pro- gressive several years ago. But he has changed. He is fighting the Bone Power Bill. He is too close to the black top paving interests. fara H.

Clifford managed Hart’s campaign four years ago, and served as a member of the Hart administration. Despite this he has a good record, but, until now he has not been prominent among the fighting progressives. He now has the support of many progressive leaders and is the strongest candidate in or- ganized labor circles. He is also supported by many veterans. He has made a vigorous campaign, and apparently stands the best chance for the nomination of any of the progressives. Revelle, now U. S. district attorney, has been right in many fights. He is ambitious. He has ability, and he is fearless. on GEE GEE, TH’ OFFICE | 3 VAMP, SEZ 1} How much do men gain by ex: | 7a te their bachelor quarters | | halves? | —* $0 many girls are going to barber thops these days that the proprietors at thinking of substituting Lad: 3 | mad Journals for the Police ¢ DAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1924 CONGRESS 10 BE ~ASKED FOR NEW.
