No More Hay Fever and Tariff Clash in Washington State Politics
A dense Washington state political column criticizes Governor Hay’s budget excesses with 1905 to 1911 spending escalating to over eleven million. It cites sugar tariff debates in Congress, railroad fare shifts for Yakima peach field travel, and calls for party loyalty amid Republican and Democratic tensions. It notes speeches by socialist Anna A. Maley in Colville, public service meter rulings, sack machinery debates, and farm price concerns amid the sack trust and bag profits.
