IS CARELESS
Stevenson Indifferent on
Primary Election Law
George II. Stevenson, sometimes
called the kin? of the lobby at Olympia,
who left Skis, way this morning for the
interior says he is indifferent as to the
outcome of the agitation for the primary
eUclion Uw in bis state.
"To tell the truth," he said, "I do
not know how the agitation is progress
ing. I know that some of the people
favor it and that there is much oppos
ition to it. Personally I care nothing
about it. However.! am convinced that i
it is not an unmixed blessing.
"Down in Oregon they are sick of the
primary law already. It is very ex
pensive, malting it impossible for a
fioor mm to aspire to a s'ate otlice. I
am told by Mr. Mulkey, who was
elected for the short term senatorship,
that there was not a candidate before
the republican primaries ol Oregon
?who did not spend or have spent for
him from $4,000 to fs.000 and over.
"But, as for me. I am paying no at
tention to the matter."
George Stevenson is one of the most
interesting characters in the state of
Washington. He is a democrat? or
was so in his younger years, and.in fact,
so dsclared himself in 1H04 when he
supported former Senator Turner, the
democratic candidate for governor,
' against Gov. Meat) ? but he has had
much more to da with republican poli
tics than democratic for many years.
He represents "interests.'' For many
years he was in charge, of legislative
affairs for the Northern Pacific. He was
the general who brought thetforces of
the Northern Pacific and the O. K. & N.
togeiher behind Senator Ankeny whom
they succeeded in electing to the
national legislature in H'O.'i la the last
legislature he is credited with arrang
ing the line-up which elected Piles to
the senate.
While Mr. Stevenson has been legis
lative agent for the Northern Pacific
and the O. K. ..v N. in turn and is now
fighting the battlesof the Union Pacific
on all political matters in which the
railroads are interested in common he
is the recognised head.
Mr. Stevenson is just now a target
for the Post-Intelligencer of Seattle of
w hich former Sen-ttor John L Wilson
is at the head. The Seattle pnper says
decent politics demand that he be un
horsed, and almost daily it is publishing
cartoons of the democratic worker iu
the republican party and bis close
ailiern. Col. B. D. Crocker, collector of
internal revenue for Washington and
Alaska, and George H. Baker, United
States marshal for Eastern W aching
ton. Mr.Stevenson and his triendsclaim
that the Post-lntelligencer is inspired
by John U Wilson's desire for revenge
upon those who have defeated him and
his ambition to go back to the senate
again.
