The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN TRIBULATIONS OF WANTERS That So Advertises. A Woman's Trying Experience in Hiring a "Girl." She Was Away From Home. A Diary Excerpt Which Was Made From Actual Life by a Seattle Lady on the Girl Curio That Pretended to Want Work VOL. VI NO. 33 TRIBULATION "Wanted a Girl" Applicants t That So Advertises. A Woman a "Girl." She Was Aw cerpt Which Was Made Lady on the Girl Curio The want column is always one of the best paying ones about the daily newspaper, for, it is a never ending one. The people will have help, and, there are those who really want work, those who do not want work, those who think that they want work, and all of these will call to inquire about the work "that people" have to do. The employment bureaus are kept busy sending out applicants and taking the names and addresses of those who wish help, while the free employment bureau is simply over run with calls. Any want add for help will receive numerous answers, for some who are hunting work will answer all of the advertements, "for, no harm in seeing what they are, you know." Of those that call there is the off changing girl, who works when she foe's like it and leaves on a plea of sickness when she is is "tired," there is the girl, who wants big money and but little work; also as in most other things, the eye servant, who works only when she is being watched; and the girl who does just what she is told and nothing more; there is the girl, who has so much company, that life, to her employer, is made miserable; the one who wants to go out so many nights in the week that her days in the week are full of sleepiness; the young girl, who has had no experience, and to whom you have to say, "wash this and dry that;" the old girl, who has had so much experience that you dare not say, "wash this and dry that;" then there is the steady girl, who answers the bill in every respect, but her name is Scarcity, even as much so as are the girls that will get up in the morning without being called. A few leaves taken from the diary of a friend of mine, who felt called upon to employ a servant, will explain the peculiar kinds of servant girl curios a want add will bring to your door. She and her husband were both away from home during the day. They had one little baby boy four years old. Their house was a small one and the work very light, they offered $15 a month and put their washing out. What I read in their diary ran thus: "My add appeared in the morning paper and I had but a short time to wait before the door bell rang. On opening it I saw before me a tall well dressed woman who was unmistakably a Swede. "Are you the lady of the house?" she asked. "you advertised for a girl?" Yes. "What wages do you pay," she continued. $15 per month. "Well I only work for $25," and she turned to leave, but stopped, meditated for a moment and looking at me most severely, added: "I would take light work for $20." So my first applicant had come and gone. Again the bell rang and I saw before me a young girl of slender form and a rather pleasing face. From the country I mentally commented as I noticed the stooping shoulders and manner of dress. Just the girl we would want, I thought, for I had always been told that country girls made the best help. I asked her in and we talked the situation all over when I said, baby is not much trouble "Baby?" she gasped, "is there a baby?" I never work where there is a baby—I do not like children and never did." "No," she added: I could not take the place, have no patience with children you know. He would get to crying after you and I would not know what to do with him. Do you know of any one who wants to hire a girl who has no children?" I would not repress a smile and yelf I felt sorry for this young girl who was so devoid of patience e with what she herself once was and seemingly had not yet changed from to any great extent, so I got the paper, cut out all of the adds where no mention of children was made and gave them to her. She was grateful, for when she reached the door she turned and said: "I wish my sister was here, she is way out from town. She works out, just loves children and all of that, only 14, but not afraid to stay in the house with the children nights or any thing. She would suit you." My second applicant closed the door and was gone. In a short time I was again explaining my want to a tall, angular woman whose sharp voice had a repulsive ring in it, so much so that a shudder ran through me as I pictured baby with her all day alone. "How many in family are you," she asked after I had told her just what would be required of her. Three, I said, just that moment baby ran into the room with a napkin tied around his neck for his breakfast was just over. "Does the baby use a clean napkin every meal," she asked. Yes. "And you have three meals a day?" Yes. "Let me see," she said, "three a day, seven days in a week, 21 napkins a week to wash just for the baby. Could you not use something else for him?" I told her we preferred the napkins. "Yes, but so many," she persisted. After a moment's hesitation she asked: "Could I see the bed where I would sleep. that is if I take the place. Some how I am so particular about my bed. I must always have comfort in bed." I pointed to the little bedroom just off from the kitchen, she entered it, stooped by the bed side and the minute examination she made was worth the great forbearance one had to endure while "being questioned by her." "Well it is alright, some places you never know about it and every thing." Then to my exceeding great joy she started for the door. "I'll let you know if I decide to take the place," she said. "I never worked for so little, but your work does not seem very heavy, only the baby, and I will come back if I decide to take the place." My third was gone. All was quiet and I enjoyed the rest, in fact almost hoped that the fourth would not come when the door bell rang. Yes, she was a pretty girl. My heart sank. I had been told that pretty girls did not make good help: spent too much time before the mirror, used too much gas curling their hair and that they proved an annoyance to the man of the house or something like that; but I asked her in and told her what we wanted. She soon concluded that she was the very girl that we needed, but I did not. Have you ever worked out before, I asked. "Yes indeed, three times, that is in three different families." How long did you ench? "Well, I do not remember exactly. I stayed the longest at the last place and that was three weeks." Do you have much company? "No, I do not. I do not believe in girls working out and having so much company. I have just one bean, we're engaged," she added. How often does he come I asked? "Oh, two or three times a week. He says he thinks a girl ought not to be out on the streets oftener than that, evenings even if she is going to marry the yellow." I told her that I did not believe she was just the one we were looking for, and as the door closed and I caught a glimpse of the beautiful, laughing, curly hair under her rather worn hat I hoped the "fellow" would keep his promise and make a home for the young girl in the near future. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1900. The next ring which brought me to the door proved to be a middle aged woman refined, well dressed and with manners which would be an example to some who are more favored, in wordly goods at least. By her side stood a younger girl—her sister. I asked them in and noticed that she made signs for her sister to sit down. I soon explained the situation to her and she in turn explained hers to me. It was this: Her sister was of foreign birth and did not speak English. She wanted her to learn and thought that to hire her out would be the best way to teach her. She does not have to work out necessarily only we are so anxious that she learn to speak English. Well there it was: I could not speak anything else save English and that was just what she could not speak. I was absolutely guilty of bursting into unconvoluble laughter for I was trying to imagine how I would let her now what I wanted done during my absence. I had no trouble in explaining the difficulty to the K one and she arose and becoming to her little sister to follow her, in the same ladylike manner it she entered. Time had painted white the hair the next woman who called Joiced at the sight. Experienced, I mentally, commented S came in and we talked "if" all aoy. She had agreed that she wad keep the house "like a pin." "I need never get up until breast is ready," she said with a sle. And on the whole I liked heik. "You are never home savet meal time and in the evening she asked. That is all, I ansed. "Well, I'll just suit you at the last place I worked the man did not know what was in hawn buttery. I have every thing here I could put my hand on its the dark. I have never workfor so little," she concluded, "but m not a young woman any longed require two or three hourst in the afternoons." We had at sealed the engagement, but we she reached the door she said; yes I forgot to tell you. I can sleep at your place for I have a little girls. They are both iool, but I could not be away a them at night." My high es fell. Instantly I remember that she had asked if I were by home all day save a real times." What she had saubout the other employer not knoog what was in her own buttery e to my mind at once. Of course might have no desire that we wed her little ones also, but I rehered that it is a good thing no place even the appearance of station in our brother's pathway told her that we just must have one who could sleep in house, for we some times went evenings. By thine I began to wish that we diot want a girl or that the applie were to call at my husband's ce instead of at the house. At there came a rousing ring se door bell. This time I was jieved to see a neat little Jap iling on the threshold. What lief too, that it was not another swer to that add. I looked at, and he looked at me. Well, id finding that he had no inten of speaking, what is it? "Girl answered. No, I replied me. Still he stood. "Want a gine slowly asked. Yes, but Ihone yet. Still he stood. Then, light dawned upon me—he need to work. "I work," he saus, but you are not a—the grent, was my rather awkward me. And I rather regretted this was not a girl, for I had been that they make the very best! Then there was all. The door bell was silent, a little English woman, forty, and foolish rang it. I bade hear. She took a seat in a rocker, complacently that she had made work out in regular service had on one occasion been uskeeper for several weeks. yes I know all about housework from our home work. Myk here would be very much like of a housekeeper as you away all day. I think I will take place for to be candid with I am out of money. Have been the city on business. Have staying at the hotel, but myans are ex-husted and if you could like for to work for you, it is like this. I shall come today for I am out of it. Do you go out much night, asked, that is, have you much any? "No, none," she replied, me engaged to a young man are to be married in March months from now, but he is in the city. Now there is one thing continued, "I have the matism in one leg and can not, much that is why I am a small paying place, then I not carry They Do Say That we would be glad to send THE REPUBLICAN to your home address. Telephone us and we will do the post. That Billy McArdle is taking anti-Navin nervine for a political bracer. That Billy Parry's non-office announcement has given a baker's dozen of fellows the want office jim-jams. That the Republicans will doubtless have a good large Root in the next mayoral scrap. That Bill Gay is laying dead in this year municipal contest. Good boy. That it is easy enough to build a $10,000 house if you are an office holder and without conscience. That if one more man will just announce his candidacy for city comptroller the fatal "13" will be on hand. That Charlie Reed is having his first experience of newspaper subsidizing and it goes hard. That the official that gives succor to "thugdom" is equally as criminal as the wretch that does the act. That P. J. Smith of Issaquah will doubtless have a word to say in the next shrivealty contest. That John Wooding's "harmony communication" was but another way of saying, "I am looking for another fat job." That "wretched service" is characteristic of the most of the electric street car roads in the city at present. That, perhaps, the "Hawks" will be looking for spring chickens after the next city conventions. That Lewis and Lippy have a "turner" for a wringer in the next municipal convention. That Blethen is no longer a leading factor in Seattle politics. That no one seems to want to be treasurer of Seattle. Too much bond and too little pay explains it. That Gen. George Tibetts of Issaquah has his lightning rod up, but he has not named it as yet. That John W. Thatt is to be the Kent king-pen with plenty of Van for leeway. That the Seattle preachers have the Way-Winsor political disease and will follow in its wake next spring, perhaps. That good times have not lessened the number of applicants for political jobs in Seattle. That twenty cents will get THE REPUBLICAN for one month. Try it for that length of time and you will keep it for all time to come. That "Fatty" Humphries will hit the grit for the supreme judge-ship nomination before the next Republican state convention. That the weekly newspaper crop is quite prolific in Seattle this season. Two a week is the record. That the present city council has thoroughly advertised itself and ought to have no trouble in getting re-elected. That the American "birds" propose to have a word to say in the next municipal contest in Seattle. That John Cort couldn't make organizing Eagles pay very well, which Irvin Barruch now regrets. That George G. Bright is handling the Good Government Club with care. That Walter Fulton stands for right regardless of who gets hurt. Its too bad that he is not prosecuting attorney. That Wood, Winsor and Way are three of a kind and it ought to be an easy matter to draw another to them. That John Bushell, of A.P.A. fame, looks natural on the streets of Seattle, but he has no mind for more political honors. That there are a dozen men connected with the Seattle police force who know more in a minute about police duties, than does Charley Reed in a year and some one of them should be chief. That the Good Government Club is not directing the affairs of the so called citizen's political move. That the Union Printing Company has a union telephone number and is composed of union printers. Unionism is its force. That the chain gang is composed of men, who have seen "better days." That it is time you were making your yearly contract with the N. P. for transportation. That, "the I am going to Nome in the spring," is a genuine chestnut. You will probably go, if you have the price. That Ambrose is ready to lick any body else that calls him a liar, providing always, he be a little bit of a fellow. WASHINGTON PARAGRAPHS Things of State Importance, of Financial Value, of Agricultural and Scientific Necessity, of Horticultural Advantage and of State Prosperity Reported From Every Section of the State. Much Prosperity Evident Throughout the State THE BIRD OF THE WORLD A bright young Filipino boy brought back from Manila by one of the Washington volunteers. He is now being educated and tenderly reared in the family of Mr. and Mrs. Julius Redelsheimer, a well known Seattle clothier. As are most of the native Filipinos, this boy shows distinct traces of being an offspring of that race of people known in the United States as Negroes. At school he is exceedingly apt in books and studies, and at home a prince of manliness. His foster parents are much devoted to him and propose to give him a polished education. Should he decide to return to his native land he will be a splendid subject to do missionary work among the natives for Uncle Sam. Lucas has no parents to his knowledge and being but a street waif at home, explains why he came away with the soldiers. It is lucky for the young fellow that he fell in such excellent hands as Mr. and Mrs. Redelsheimer. He speaks English rather poorly as yet, Spanish being his native language. That he might not be weaned completely from his home memories Mr. Redelsheimer sends him to a Catholic school. Catharine McCarthy, who lives near Forest, Lewis county, has just passed her 101st birthday. She is in splendid health and sleeps as peacefully at night as a child. C. B. Allen has resigned the position as postmaster of Fort Canby and Lewis Hendricks is a candidate for the same. North Yakima has been visited lately by a number of fire fiends and, as a result, quite a few houses have been burned. The miscreants have not, as yet, been apprehended. The Ballard News is of the opinion that neither the mayor nor the chief of the police of Seattle is given a square deal by any of the Seattle newspapers, it, therefore, has undertaken the task. The Sumas News has entered its 10th year and shows signs of much prosperity. The Tacoma poultry show has been in session since January 16 and is being very well attended. The seventh annual convention of the Northwest Fruit Growers' Association, which has been in session in Tacoma this week, has been most liberally attended by the fruit growers of the state. The county treasurer of Clarke county had $48,805.07 January 1st last in his vaults. The finances of the county are in a most excellent condition. (In Afro-American Newspapers 1898-1901, no.....66....) BLICA ON PARAGRAPHS ed From the Country of the State Financial Value, of Agricultural y, of Horticultural Advantage and ported From Every Section of the y Evident Throughout the State The Arlington Times is advertising for a good truck gardener to locate near that city and guarantees such a gardener a splendid patronage from the citizens. It is claimed that a petition is being circulated in Colfax, which is to be extended to other counties in the wheat belt, praying that the governor call a special session of the legislature for February for the purpose of passing a new freight law. Walla Walla county sent 32 prisoners to the penitentiary during the year 1899, half of whom were ex-convicts and but few of the number were residents of that county. William Lack, an old resident of Mountain View, died January 4th while sitting at the dinner table. S. S. Palmer, while trimming his blackberry bushes, near Elma, one day last week, found some of them in blossom. One hundred dollars per capita were expended in Assotin in local building improvements, amounting in round numbers to $96,000, during the year just closed. Pretty good record. If Congressman Jones succeeds in his undertaking he will have $175,000 appropriated for a convalescent military hospital at Vancouver barracks. ```markdown ``` PRICE FIVE CENTS The Arlington Enterprise, which started out some time ago as an independent paper as to politics, has come squarely out for Republicanism. Falling straws always tell the direction of the wind. The house where some Japs were living in Wenatchee was blown up one day last week by persons not wanting the Japs to work on the new coal chutes that are being built there. The Japs are still at work. Mr. Huelsieps, of Pasco, lost twenty fine blooded chickens within a few minutes. A badger entered his chicken coop and was making great havoc of the chickens till a load of shot put an end to him. Two of the chickens had been sold for $5, but had not yet been delivered. With the exception of a light snow just before Christmas, Franklin county has not seen any winter and people have been going in their shirt sleeves ever since. Pasco has fresh vegetables—such as peas, lettuce and onions—growing in the gardens. Guess the state of Washington is alright. So says the Pasco News-Record. Owen McFarland of Anacortes, head sawyer at the Rogers Mill Company's mill, was one day last week struck on the head by a falling board and instantly killed. The board which struck him was falling with so much force that after killing McFarland it was thrown 40 feet further away. LaConner is having some Diptheria trouble: three cases and three deaths. Every precaution is being used to prevent she spread of the disease. All public services and public gatherings have been suspended and the public schools will not be opened till it is found that it is quite safe to do so. Col. Wainright spent last week in Dayton receiving horses for U. S. Cavalry service. Quite a few horses driven over from Pomeroy and Lewiston were rejected and had to be returned home. A petition is in circulation in the vicinity of Pomeroy and is being numerously signed, recommending that young Burris, who last fall was convicted of rape and sentenced by Judge Godman to a two-year term in the penitentiary, be pardoned. The jury that found Burris guilty has signed the petition. A Chehalis saloon man had a queer kind of a hold up last Sunday night. There was no one in the saloon save the barkeeper, one Bartell, when the bell from one of the private rooms rang. He went at once to answer it and was confronted by two parties dressed in women's clothes, who covered him with their revolvers. He escaped from them and ran for the front door to spread the alarm, but was there met by a third man with a gun. They had secured $20 from the money drawer when a noise from the outside frightened them away. A move is on foot in Chehalis to ask the city council to appoint a new city marshal in place of Marshal Michaelis. The complaint is that he is too lenient with the hobo element and that the tough element is sometimes allowed to make themselves too conspicuous on the streets. Buckley has had a "red letter day" in her postoffice. On Monday of last week the business of the postoffice exceeded that of any one day in the last six years. If heavy mails mean much business why Buckley is most assuredly not having a dull season of it. According to the reports in the auditor's office, the total number of marriages in Skagit county for the three months ending December 31, 1899, were 31. Of these 31 brides, 30 were white and one Indian, 24 were born in the United States and 7 in foreign countries. Of the grooms 30 were white and 1 mixed white and Indian, 18 were natives and 13 foreign born.—Mt. Vernon Argus. Buckley realized $104,76 from bicycle license last year. This sum will be quite a help for the construction of bicycle roads. The Sunday closing law is being strictly enforced in Colville. Assistant Attorney-General Vance has decided that any person can practice osteopathy in the state without holding a certificate from the state board of health, that is, if they do not deal in drugs or prescriptions or do not prefix M. D. to their names. That its the old dodge of arraying one colored man against the other for political purposes. It will fail in this instance, dear Charlie. There is always a splendid opportunity for political bosses to fall into some pool of "innocuous desuetude." Senator Wolcott did not do a thing to Petigrew, the windy wonder, overflowing with spurious Aguinaldian sympathy. If the proprietor of this paper does not own the entire world and its fullness thereof you can rest assured that its no fault of his. An endorsement from A. T. Ambrose is not a much coveted boon after all, and, to this Herr Irvin Barruch, we believe, will be a very swift witness. There are a whole lot of people in South Africa who have no objection to seeing the color of Miss Ladysmith's hair, and that feeling is not confined solely to the Boers at that. The University of Washington is doing a splendid work this session. The vigor and vim with which President Graves is pushing things there, is bearing splen- results. Blethen must have received a short note of reminder from Jim Hill, which accounts for his recent sporadic doses of abuse of the Northern Pacific's Seattle depot proposition. A trip to Philadelphia about June 10th would be a very pleasant affair and, doubly so, if you happen to be a delegate to the Republican national convention, sitting June 19th. Vice-presidential candidates from the Republican side of the house are still the order of the day. Many are being called, while none, as yet, has been chosen. Bliss is the latest on tap. McArdle and Navin may be up-to-date First ward politicians, but, they are certainly making fools of themselves in their scrap for local supremacy. A half loaf is much better than no loaf at all. Now that the Washington Volunteer Association is a stern reality pension agents can take on a new lease of life, for their services will, doubtlessly, be conspicuously in demand at an early date. Democracy is determined to go it alone in Seattle politics, even though going it alone does not meet the approval of Alden J. Times, and no amount of belly aching on his part will mend matters. Advani, the Bombay prince, continues to find plenty of American suckers to fleece. In every city he visits he sooner or later finds fools a-plenty to refill his depleted pocket-book for revelry and further crime. If some of the would-be Republican leaders do not "toat fair" in the coming Republican convention there is likely to be a row in the camp. Gentlemen with aristocratic bearings and deportment will please take notice. Senator Pettigrew may be full of sympathy for the Filipinos, but we suspect he is only looking for an opportunity to work them for a "wad". That class of sympathetic persons are frequently met in this day and generation. Miss Carroll, of this city, has won the highest honors in a law class of 35 men. To THE REPUBLIC this accomplished young lady seems to be made out of that kind of material that always wins in matters of competition. The suggestion that the state convention to elect delegates to the national Republican convention be held between the 1st and the 10th of May is entirely too late. Let the convention be held early in April and, perhaps, in March. Every dog has his day, vulgarly speaking, as all last summer Seattle was crazy about "the man with the "hoe," and now, the same city is equally crazy about "the man with the boat," that one may cross the streets without danger of drowning. More men die politically from the "swell head" than from any other disease common to that class of human beings. There are men in Seattle who are badly troubled with the malady and THE REPUBLICAN recommends a dose of "go slow," as a safe and sure cure. Democratic papers make no mistake in declaring that the administration has side-tracked Fitzhugh Lee for Gen. Wood. McKinley devoted too many days of the prime of his life licking the sire of Fitzhugh Lee to now fall down and worship his son. Idaho and Eastern Washington have both suffered severely from floods for the past week. If some of the flood material could only be preserved until next August it would come in very handy. Water is essential to Washington if it can be used at the proper time. The Republican party has nothing whatever to do with the Boer and British war in South Africa nor has any other party or individual in the United States, and, it is their duty, as citizens of the United States, to let England and Africa settle their troubles as suits them best. France can, according to law, banish professional agitators. Now, if the United States had such a law and should enforce it, there would not be many Populis's left to vote at the coming fall elections, and, we feel quite certain, too, that Billie Bryan would have to go before the water got hot. Federal troops to aid Gov. Taylor, of Kentucky, to retain his seat might do the Republican party more harm than good. If the voters who elected Mr. Taylor cannot hold him in the place to which they have elected him then they themselves will be to blame if Goebel is ever seated. Union-Record, an organ of the labor unions of this section, has made its appearance. It is being issued by the Union Printing company, and most remarkable of all, it is sharing quarters with THE REPUBLICAN, and thus, is the Bible verified in, "the lion and the lamb shall lie down together." "Georgia's Religious Demonstration." Mr. Atlanta Constitution, is always very plain to be seen, when there is to be a human being roasted at the stake. Religion is one thing that Southern Caucasians know but little about, and they do not seem to care to get any better acquainted with it. "Our duty in the Philippines" is to lick those devils, who turned upon their friends, to an immortal stand-still, and Otis is going to do that thing to a queen's taste. All this Phillipine sympathy in the United States is nothing more nor less than Bryan-Demo-Pop political clap-trap for campaign purposes. A German speaking at Cincinnati some time ago is responsible for the assertion that, "there are 4000 Americans already in the Boer army and 2000 more on their way." Let a few more of them get in that Boer army and Uele Sam will be annexing South Africa next, for U. S. expansion is the order of the day just now. If there is any honesty among Southern Democrats its more than any honest citizen has, as yet, discovered. Therefore, for the anti-Goebel Kentucky citizens to "appeal to Democratic honesty," is appealing to something that not only the Goebelites have not but no other Southern Democrat whether in Kentucky or any where else. If Col. Alden J. Times is not on the decline then THE REPUBLICAN misses its guess, but it has no idea that it has done any such thing. The colonel, it will be remembered, is quite ephemeral in his municipal careers and he is now preparing to pass from the Seattle horizon in a similar way as did he from the Minneapolis horizon some years ago. New York Democracy wants it distinctly understood by Col. Bill Bryan that he cannot play in its back yard if he talks 16 to 1 doctrines in New York state, and, as radical as Mr. Bryan professes to be on that point, he has consented to foreswear that only excuse for wanting to be president of the United States, and speak in New York without even alluding to his 16 to 1 nuisance. Geo. Dixon takes his licking like a little man. He has, doubtless, profited from the experiences of other defeated pugilists, who did more fighting with their mouths after they had gotten whipped than they did with their fists before they were whipped. Silence is always golden, George, and the gold is what you want at present, even though you have quite a bit of it stored away for a rainy day. City Comptroller Parry is to become a financier, so it is currently reported, for some large concern in Seattle. He has a number of offers of that kind and will probably accept some one of them. Such is the good luck of the man or woman who makes himself proficient in whatever he or she undertakes. Be sure you know well some one thing and then you are always certain of having something to fall back on. Direct legislation may be a splendid theme on which to deliver grandilouquent oratorical orations by such men as Charles E. Cline, who make a speciality of such claptrap stuff, but, it is simply a political theory, without a grain of business practicability. To enforce "direct legislation" on this or any other state in the Union, or upon the United States, would soon bankrupt the entire government holding special elections It is remarkably strange to us why men who have made their fortunes out of their business during their careers have never as yet learned the good qualities of "single taxdom." We often hear men preaching the universal adoption of single taxdom, when such men are not only penniless, but are likewise, without enough education to use the common English. Reforms may often eminate from the poor, but they seldom eminate from the ignorant. Brother Way, of the Herald, quotes freely from the columns of THE REPUBLICAN, not that he loves it more, but because he sees an opportunity to use what it says to his political advantage, or what he thinks is an advantage. Don't fool yourself, old man, for this paper has no sympathy whatever in common with either free silverdom, single taxdom and but precious little for municipal ownership, and certainly not that kind that runs parallel with Populism It begins to look as if the venerable Massachusetts senator, Hoar, is to be the Jeff Davis, of the Philippine insurrection. His utterances in the senate last summer before the Filipinos had begun to fight the United States soldiers, it now transpires, after a thorough research, prompted that revolt. Now, why would it not be proper for Senator Hoar to be promptly pelled from the senate as being responsible for the death of Gen. Lawton and all other Americans killed over there in war? Quite a number of persons are advocating the paving of Madison street, which is right and proper, but even Madison street is not so much in need of paving as is Seventh avenue from Pike to Madison, from the very fact that it is the teaming thoroughfare to reach the most densely populated district in the city, and, it will be all the more so, as soon as the Lake Washington ferry is completed and put into operation. But both Madison and Seventh should be paved and paved with a durable material, for, if the city is to be in any sense compensated for the $30,000 that has been expended on the Lake Washington ferry, by country travel, then it must be done to accommodate that country team trade in a manner in keeping with the splendid ferry facilities. Too often have we of the North and West been told by the whites of the South that the Negro was an undesirable citizen and was very criminally inclined; that no community would tolerate him without using the same kind of brute force on him as do the Southerners to keep him in check. Taking that as a cue a number of Western white men thought they would be doing their Southern bretheren a favor to take the undesirable Negro away from that section and giving the whites a much-needed rest of their worry to civilize him, but, lo and behold! as soon as an emigration agent goes to work in Georgia to take the Negroes from that state and bring them West, where they could practice some of their criminality on the Western people, the agent is mobbed and his life only saved by the skin of his teeth, by the enraged Georgia farmers, who had begun to lose all of their criminal Negro labor. The same men who assemble monthly to burn a Negro at the stake for robbing white homes of their virtue, assembled by thousands to burn a white agent at the stake for trying to rid their section of black criminals. This story sounds most awfully funny out West. Readers of THE REPUBLICAN who have considered its statements to the effect that, the Caucasians of the South were drifting into heathendom, can now read the self confession of one of their number, who is in a position to speak the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and then compare it with previous statements herein made. The following dispatch was sent out from Columbia, South Carolina, January 1st last: The principal undertaker of Greenville, S. C., while not claiming a monopoly in his business, has kept a record for the past six years which shows the causes of death of those whose bodies he has buried. This shows that seventy-three persons buried by him in that town met death by violence and unlawful means. There were, of course, many persons killed in the county not buried by this city undertaker, but the same record in the other counties would represent 500 violent deaths a year. The Baptist Courier, perhaps the leading religious paper in the state, says: "This is a fearful record. It calls for faithful and fearless work by preachers, editors, teachers and public men generally, and the private citizen as well, in developing such a public sentiment on the sacredness of human life as will secure speedy punishment for those who take the lives of their fellows. This seems to be the only hope of correcting the evil." Talk about your border outlawy, but the days when the Wild Bills, Kit Carsons and Buffalo Bills roamed the plains with undisputed sway were never able to boast of a worse criminal record than the above, which comes from one of the leading Southern states of the Union and one of the original thirteen states that threw off the British yoke of taxation without representation. There is no spot in China, Japan, Africa or the Islands of the Sea more in need of Christian missionary work than portions of the South and Georgia and South Carolina lead them all. Booker T. Washington, the great Southern Industrial educational wizard, spoke at Chicago last Sunday to which many of the leading men of the state of Illinois listened. The theme of his discourse was "The Needs of the Negro Race," and from the associate press dispatches he is credited with using the following very appropriate language: "In seeking to give encouragement to this movement I do so because it is in line with the teaching to which my life is largely devoted—that of helping the race to prepare itself for industry, business, to exercise thrift and economy—to save money, to help lay up something for a rainy day. "I am glad to have a part in this meeting for the special reason that, more and more each year, the problem confronting our race, in these large Northern cities, is going to become an important one. I believe our people can sooner conquer prejudice in the South than Northern competition. The young colored man coming to Chicago from our Southern states not only has to meet severe competition, but he finds himself subjected to temptations which do not surround him in his Southern home. All these considerations make it most important that any organization in the North, that has for its object the encouragement of our people in the direction of thrift and economy, the exercise which gives them encouragement to save money, should receive our special care and earnest consideration. "The Negro in the North, as elsewhere, will prosper in proportion as he learns to do some one thing well—learns to do it better than any one else; in proportion as he learns to put brains, skill and dignity in the common occupations of life." Gen. William J. Hullings, commander in chief of the National Association of Spanish-American War Veterans, has announced the following department commanders: Arkansas—Col. Vigil T. Cook. California—Col. Victor Dunboc. Florida—Col. Irving E. Webster. Illinois—Col. L. Jack Foster. Indiana—Capt. William E. English. Kansas—Maj. A. M. Harvey. Minnesota—Maj. Francis H. Bidwell. Missouri—Gen. Milton Moore Montana—Col. C. E. Lloyd. North Dakota—Col. William C. Truman. Pennsylvania—Christopher T O'Neill. South Carolina—Col. Wylie Jones. Texas—Col. G. Hardy. Washington—Maj. Edward II Fox. West Virginia—Capt. John B. White. Wisconsin—Col. M. T. Moore. These officers, together with the commander-in-chief and adjutant general (ex-officio) will constitute the executive board or council of administration, and they will immediately select a staff, to assist of an assistant adjutant general, an assistant quartermaster general, an assistant inspector general, an assistant surgeon general, a judge advocate, a signal officer and a chaplain, who will hold office until further orders.

ONE of the best stocks to inst in is INDEX APEX MINING STOCK bought only at the regular calls in the Stock Exchange, 1020 First Avenue, ington. In order that everybody can have a fair chance to get it at ground floor prices, it will not be sold at any other time or plauduring the next four weeks. INDEX APEX is a new stop on the market, and the company is represented by Seattle men whose records are clean. The property consists of a full claims, located on Copper Bell Mountain, in the Index District, about three miles from Index Station. In two of these claims large bodies of valuable ore show at the surface. Two assays recently made by Johnson & Newton, from the rock taken from two to five feet below the surface give the following result: Assay No. 1—Gold, $11.37; silver, $1.20; copper, 7 per cent; total, $25.3 Assay No. 2—Gold, $22.73; silver, $0.54; copper, 3.5-10 per cent; total, $31.67. We are now working on tl property, and will continue to work all winter. We have money in the treasury, and all money received from treasury stock will go into development work. We pay out no money forrokers' commission, therefore the property gets the benefit of all stock sales. No promoters' stock will be allowed to go on the market, it being pooled as a protection to the treasury stock. There is nothing better the market today for small investors than LEGITIMATE mining stocks, and INDEX APEX as clean and reliable as any stock in the state of Washington. Fifty thousand shares will be sold between now and January 1st at the price the public will pay for it, at a PUBLICALL ON THE EXCHANGE. No person who invested the first block of any of the legitimate stocks placed upon this market in the early part of a present year, when the mining boom began on the west side of the Cascades, can reasonabl find any fault with his investment. Note what has been done with a number of these stock, and then call up a messenger boy and have yourself kicked for not having bought at the time. People who bought 45 mining stock at 5c a share can now get $1.25 for it. SUNSET mining stock was placed upon the market at 1c a share, it has since sold for nearly $1—worth at least $2 today. GOLDEN TUNNEL stock that was bought for 1c per share, less than a year ago, has been sold as high as 70c p share, and even at the extremely low prices of stocks today it is worth 20c or more. The stock of the greLE ROI went begging in its early days at 5c a share. One of the employees of the Spokan northern R. R. invested $500 in it, and a short time afterwards realized $60,000; had he kept stock until this time he could sell it today for $275,000. COPPER BELL sk was placed upon the market at 5c a share, less than a year ago, and it is practically legaler today at 20c. These stories about great advancement of legitimate mining stock could be multiplied indefinitely. Suffice it say that the mining industry, being yet in its infancy on the western side of the Cascades, thunders of fortunes are to be realized by the men who will get in on the ground floor at this time purchasing such stocks as have meritorious standing and honest, capable management. Attend the business sessions at the Stock Exchange, 1020 First Avenue, and you can readily catch on to the tilt stock. REMEMBER YOU CANNOT BUY A SHARE OF IT EXCEPT AT THE PUBLIC CALL, and in this waverybody knows what everybody else pays for it, and nobody is deceived. Here is a chance make your friend a Christmas present that will prove your sincerity toward him. Give him one thousands shares of INDEX APEX and it will buy him a home in the near future.

Miss Moore and Mr. Roberts are both sterling artists appearing equally as well in comedy or standard drama. They are supported by a most excellent company, and their performances are not only pleasing, but of a high order of excellence. After some fishermen had cast their nets at Olympia last week they were startled to find that they had caught the body of a man, which proved to be that of Joseph King, who had mysteriously disappeared some six weeks prior.

Do you go out evenings, I asked. "No, never, only I am in a singing class and have to go on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings to sing. I dismissed her kindly yet firmly and felt that I was making no mistake in doing so. The next applicant was unmistakably of African decent. I did not have to wait for her to speak to discover as much. I had heard that they made good help and rejoiced at the sight of her, but she lost no time in telling me that she never worked for less than $25 a month. "I can make more at day work any way," she added as she turned to go. Then I decided that I would not even answer the door again that day and was washing baby's face amid screams and kicks when there came a faulting tap at the kitchen door. Come I answered and a little girl seemingly not over sixteen years of age, entered. I talked with her and soon had her story: Father and mother were divorced and mother had married again. Father said he was not able to save any thing and support the two girls that mother left. They had to go out to work. "I am experienced, and can do everything." But do you like children, I questioned. Yes, indeed, would like to adopt one for myself," was her reply. So she answered every thing that I asked and agreed to all I said until I could find no farther excuse, and when she declared that as young as she looked she was 18 years of age I had to employ her. She has only one bean. He drives a laundry wagon and stops for just a little while every now and then. We have never regretted that we took first into our home and at last into our hearts, this little stranger who talked so that day that I thought there was nothing but talk to her.

The sheriff of Lincoln county has made a round-up of the wayward boys about Davenport and other places in the county and as a result he has quite a few subjects for the reform school.
