Notwithstanding this removal it has the same telephone number, and persons wishing to do business with The Republican will do well to call it up by phone and a representative of the paper will call on you at once.

Within the past few weeks a great deal has been said as to Mr. Levi Ankeny's waning political influence in this state and more especially in his immediate county and town. The causes most responsible for this are, first, his partiality to the railroad companies of the state, which' was shown in the last legislature by his immediate followers and close political friends defeating every effort that was made to enact "railroad legislation." Until that time Mr. Ankeny enjoyed the distinction of being classed as a friend of the farmers of Eastern Washington, but now they look upon him as their enemy from a financial and commercial standpoint, and it will be utterly impossible for him to muster up any support among the farmers of any section of the state in coming campaigns, owing to his railroad tactics in the last legislature. For a time he made desperate efforts to shift the responsibility of his friends' actions in the legislature, but he found it an up-hill business, for they gave the public to distinctly understand that they were looking after Mr.

Ankeny's political fences, and whatever they did was done with an eye single to his election to the United States senate in 1904. A second cause that is leading to the undoing of Walla Walla's wouldbe United States senator is the internal dissension among his own political friends. So eager was Mr. Ankeny to be elected that he found excust to shift from first one political boss to another, until he has had as many bosses and managers as he has lingers and toes. J.

Howard Watson remained in his employ and managed to frequently get his political ear, much to the chagrin of D. B. Crocker, who has been slated for collector of customs at Port Townsend, until it became so annoying and so objectionable to Mr. Crocker that he served peremptory notice on Mr. Ankeny that either he or Watson would have to go, and Mr.

Ankeny realizing that it would be utterly impossible for him to make any kind of a show at all in Walla Walla county without the aid of Mr. Crocker, finally concluded to let Watson go, and did so with many regrets. Even the letting out of Watson has not helped his case in Walla Walla county, for recently at the school election Mr. Ankeny's candidate for school director was turned down with a dull thud, which would seem to indicate that he has lost his political grip not only in the state of Washington, but has even lost it in Walla Walla county, and further still in the city of Walla Walla, the home of this noted political banker. County Commissioner George N.

Gilson, who is now an avowed candi- BLIC date for mayor, proposes to make the fight of his life to be nominated by the next Republican municipal convention of Seattle for the position of mayor. The same determination has been made by Judge C. G. Austin, and of course the same determination has been decided upon by the perennial office-seeker, Tom Humes. As things now line up, it will be Tom Humes against the field.

Austin and Gilson will to some extent draw largely on what is commonly known as the anti-Humes faction of this city, and unless some new political Moses makes his appearance the anti-Humes faction will be divided completely between these two aspirants. This does not include, however, the church element, which has for the most part supported the Republican ticket, and either Gilson or Austin in order to defeat Humes must get the united support of the church element, and the stronger NEW NUTS OUR Winter Supply of Nuts, Raisins, Figs, etc. are just making their appearance. In fact we have already some of each of the above and are expecting, daily, new glazeed fruits and when they arrive we will have the finest line ever seen in Seattle.

PIDDUCK-HDSS-MEHLHORN CO, Headquarters for GOODTHINGS TO EAT 720 Sec. Aye. Boston Block candidate of the two must be able to command the strength of the weaker candidate when the break comes. That is to say, should Austin's friends find that he could not succeed, they should at once go to Gilson, and vice versa. The Pie-maker does not know whether such an agreement or understanding been entered into between Mr.

Gilson and Judge Austin, but he does know that such an agreement should be entered into in order that one of them might succeed. Which of the two men is the stronger remains to be seen. Both, however, claim that so far as they are concerned the other fellow is not in it, that is to say, the only opposition that they will encounter will be Mr. Humes. Both Mr.

Gilson and Mr. Austin are from the same ward and same precinct, and in the past Judge Austin has managed to land his ward in his own Mr. Gilson claims to have a number of the leading and best workers of that ward, who in the past have supported the aspirations of Judge Austin, lined up with him, and, if this be true, it is gong to make an interesting three-cornered fight in the Eighth ward, for it will be remembered that Tom llnines still has some strength in that ward, as his law partners both live there and will take an active interest in the primary fight that will be waged there early in January. Speaking about the coming municipal campaign reminds the Piemaker that Mr. Frank 11.

Paul, the present efficient comptroller, will be a candidate for renoniination and election. So far as his renoniination is concerned, it seems a foregone conclusion at present, and unless the Republican party should encounter a landslide at the election his reelection is equally assuring. Mr. Paul has made an ideal comptroller. He has been more than successful in conducting the financial affairs of the city, and though he has been spoken to by a number of his most ardent admirers to let his name be used in connection with the mayoralty, yet he insists on letting well enougii do, and he wishes to be renominated for comptroller, only that and nothing more.

Notwithstanding Mr. Paul's popularity, it is rumored about the streets at present that the present city treasurer, Sam Kathbun, has decided to shy his castor in the comptroller fight and oppose Mr. Paul's aspirations for renoniination. There is no denying the fact that Mr. Eathbun is quite popular in the city, and under ordinary circumstances would give Mr.

Paul a hard tussel, but owing to the fact that Mr. Paul has served but one term as comptroller, any opposition that ambitious politicians might offer to him will die It has been suggested to Mr. Kathbun that he become a candidate for mayor, but to this he will not listen for a minute, believing that to be nominated and elected mayor would ruin his political chances for anything in the future. Were it possible, Mr. Eathbun would be renominated for city treasurer, but he is ineligible, having served one term, which is the limit fixed by the cty charter for a city treasurer to serve.

It therefore appears that if Mr. Kathbun wishes to continue in the service of the city as one of its officials he will have to enter the fight for mayor or lose out completely. Our office is at 1411 Third avenue. "Wanted, a canddate for corporation is a sign that is being hung out by the politicians at present. Neither the Humes nor the anti-Humes faction has been able to center upon any man for corporation counsel as yet that will bring to it strength in the primaries.

It is not probable that the present corporation counsel will ask for a renoniination, though there is nothing to prevent him from holding the place should he be renominated and elected. It is generally considered that Mr. Humphrey has a congressional bee in his bonnet, and would rather help somebody else get this place if he could make a deal with such person and his friends to help him next year in the congressional fight. Speaking about the corporation counsel reminds the Pie-maker that J. Wilmon Tucker, one of the young Democrats of the city, has already announced his intention to make a fight for his party nomination for that position.

While Mr. Tucker realizes that there will be no show of him being elected unless there is great strife in the Republican ranks, yet he says he is perfectly willing to be offered up as a sacrifice. "Political landslides are not wholly improbable, and while the country seems to be overwhelmingly Republican, I feel that if the Democrats will use good judgment in Seattle next spring they will land their nominees in every particular." Mr. Tucker in the past has been quite conservative in his views, and the Pie-maker has been informed that he has generally voted for the man instead of the party in past elections. This, however, Mr.

Tucker does not permit to touch him, for if he did, it would be suicidal to his political ambition to become the next corporation counsel in this city by the aid of the Democratic party. Xow come the Christian Endeavor societies of Seattle with the determination to take a hand in coming municipal politics. It will be remembered that the Young Men's Christian Association decided on a similar course some months ago, and the later determination of the Christian Endeavor societies but strengthens the former actions of the Y. M. C.

A. That these Christian societies, vulgarly speaking, are laying dead for Tom Humes goes without saying. jSTo Tammany hall corruption shall become permanently fastened on Seattle if those Christian voters can prevent it, and they will find many sympathizers among men not members of their orders. The Piemaker suggests, gentlemen, that you do politics on business principles and you will succeed in driving corruption from Seattle just as it has been from New York. First find a man that you feel morally certain will carry out your platform, and then fight for his nomination and election, and should your man fail of nomination, stand by that nominee that will publicly declare he will uphold your principles.

THE ST. JAMES. In fitting the above named tonsorial parlors at 114 Second avenue south, W. H. Henderson has shown a taste that should be followed by every man of his race in this and other cities.
