Labor troubles in the North and race troubles in the South. He cometh up a good citizen, but is lynched by a mob and is cut down by the coroner, who proclaims that the deceased came to his death at the hands of persons unknown. CHICAGO'S NEGRO LODGES. The six lodges of Chicago of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows have had plans prepared by Architect George L. Harvey for an assembly hall and lodge rooms, to cost $40,000. The structure, which will be three stories high, will be located in State street, fifty feet north of Forty-third street, on a lot having a west frontage of fifty-five feet and a depth of 160 fet. The ground was purchased a year ago, and the money to erect the building is in the treasury. ARE NATURALLY MUSICAL. One of the chief features of every Negro gathering of a social character is the singing. A musical people they undoubtedly are. Not a few have exhibited a high degree of talent in this respect; as, for example, Blind Tom, whose performances on the piano have delighted so many cultured audiences. The darkey fiddler, once so prominent a feature of social gatherings, is still sought after in some communities. The popularity of so-called "jubilee" singers and Negro minstrels seems to increase with time. Many of the most popular songs in this country, such as "Old Kentucky Home," "The Fatal Wedding," and "Listen to the Mocking Bird," were composed by Negroes. For the origin of most of their songs we must go back to the days of slavery. Just as the laboring classes of England during the seventeenth century found expression for their struggles and sufferings in the popular ballads of the time, so the American slave to his afflictions and heartaches in song. He sang of his griefs—and they were many—of hardships and oppression, of loss of home, of separation from friends and relatives. In these songs one cannot fail to perceive a certain plaintive melody that seems to breathe forth centuries of patient suffering. But the songs of the Negro were not all dictated by the tragic muse. Even in slavery there were bright, sun-kissed openings in the clouds of sorrow that darkened his life; and there is no better evidence of the natural cheerfulness and gaiety of his character than the comic and festive songs with which he was wont to celebrate these interspaces in his grief.—W. T. Hewetson, in Chautauquan. ALABAMA CONFERENCE The conference to be held in Montgomery, Ala., early in May to discuss the Negro problem, is not thoroughly understood by members of the race. It will not include entirely friends of the race, but will have the most unfavorable opinions of the race, and they will be given an opportunity of not only expressing their views, but also of hearing the bright side of the race question from some of our ardent friends and admirers. The Negro will not be among the speakers this year for prudential reasons, but many representative members of the race will hear the discussions and at a future meeting will take part in them. The conference has been suggested and planned by friends of the race, and this can be best done by winning the good will of those who are now hostile or lack confidence in the capacity of the race. If they can be induced to discuss the question with their own people they may see the error of their way and in course of time be willing to discuss these questions with their brother in black. Let us at least give these friends an opportunity of trying their experiment and judge the conference by what it may accomplish.—American Baptist. JOHN BROWN'S BIRTHDAY. Eminently befitting is the appeal issued by Bishop Alexander Walters, president of the National Afro-American Council, calling for the appropriate observance of May 9, the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of John Brown. This appeal should touch a responsive chord in the heart of every lover of liberty throughout this broad land. Especially should the millions of Negroes see to it that the day is fittingly observed The world never has and never will produce a greater man than John Brown. She has produced and may produce men of more towering intellect, higher attainments and brighter fame, but John Brown can never be surpassed in greatness, because he can never be surpassed in goodness. He was truly a remarkable man, born in a remarkable age, charged with a remarkable responsibility and enshrouded by a remarkable destiny. He was embedded with a love for liberty and a hatred for all forms of oppression. And he did not hesitate to offer up his life as a willing sacrifice. He believed that the cardinal and basic principle of a republican form of government was clearly set forth in the Declaration of Independence, that "all men are born and created equal." He believed in the common fatherhood of God and the universal brotherhood of all mankind, and that Paul was right when he thundered out from the heights of Mars' Hill: "Of one blood hath God made all nations of the earth." He looked forth and saw four million human beings in fetters and chains. And, "Pity pointed to the scarred and bleeding backs of slaves—Mercy heard the sobs of mothers reft of babes, and Justice held aloft the scales in which one drop of blood shed by a master's lash outweighed a nation's gold." 一 The heart of the rugged old philanthropist was touched, and he resolved to do and to die in the cause of human liberty. With an earnest born of conviction, and a love of his fellow creatures that was Christ-like, he went forth heeding the call to duty as the voice of God. By the sacrifice of his life at historic Harper's Ferry, he blazed the way for the Emancipation, when The Negro race owes to John Brown a debt of gratitude that can never be fully paid. The observance of his birthday anniversary is a small recognition of the sacrifice of his life. And yet it serves us to perpetuate his memory. As long as good men are loved and great deeds remembered, John Brown's name and fame will live in the hearts of the toiling sons of Ham. Like the beautiful sound wave, the impulse of a good deed can never die. We should see to it that the birthday of this hero and martyr is celebrated in a way commendable to the race, and worthy of him whose "Body lies mouldering in the grave, While his soul roes marching on." "Body lies mouldering in the grave While his soul goes marching on." —Blue Grass Bugle Miss Lizzie Jones, a modest-appearing young colored lady, attempted to commit suicide one day this week by throwing herself into the bay. She seems to be in an unbalanced state of mind. We will be glad to mail your friends in the East a sample copy of THE REPUBLIC CAN. If you desire send it yourself, it only costs $1 for six months. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MAY 11, 1900. BEEN TILLMAN'S BAZOO Gets Loose and Says Things Which Renders Him Ludicrous. Perhaps the citizens of this far Northwest have no idea of the kind of human cattle South Carolina and other Southern states elect to the United States senate, and for that reason space is given to a speech made by Senator Ben Tillman at Ann Arbor, Mich., law school, April 30th last, that you may read for yourself and be convinced. Such language comes nearer convincing the people of the North that it is the likes of Tillman, that are more brute than human, rather than the Negroes, he is trying to belittle. This one-eyed old Orangoutang comes nearer, perhaps, being the long lost connecting link between "man and monkey" than any other species of human cattle anywhere to be found in the South. The following is his speech upon "The Race Problem," as reported: "This is not a race or Negro question of the South alone; it is not a local or sectional question; it is a national question, and this is the only true way to look at it. You in Michigan know practically nothing about this question. You judge only by books and what you hear politicians say, who have axes to grind. The last census gives Michigan 6,000 colored and 600,000 white voters, or about 1 to 100. If there were to be promiscuous intermarriage between the races in Michigan it would not affect the white race. "But it is different in the South. In South Carolina the Negro outnumbers the white population in the ratio of 60 to 40. After the reconstruction policy had been adopted the Negro ruled, or rather misruled, our state for eight years. Three-fourths of the legislature of the state were Negroes. Most of them could neither read nor write. The result of this misrule was a state of affairs which the white population could not tolerate, and we determined to get rid of it. We could not do it by voting, as they outnumbered us, so we used the shotgun and such other methods as we found expedient. If the South was left to settle this question, the solution would be easy and satisfactory to the entire country, but you send representatives from the North to congress to regulate matters of which they know absolutely nothing." He then went into the history of the struggle of the civil war, "which the North calls the 'war of the rebellion,' and which you can never make me admit if I were rent limb by limb asunder," and said that the very men who claim to have fought for the freedom of the Negro and to put the ballot in his hands, are the men who have recently disfranchised the Puerto Ricans and are enslaving the natives of the Philippines. He said that he stood before the Republican senators of the United States and denounced them as "hypocrites;" that he would have liked to use a term sufficiently strong to express the actual facts, but not finding the word all he could do was to "his the word 'hypocrite' into their faces in as venomous and vindictive manner as I was capable of doing." He continued: "You have heard of the stuffing of ballot boxes, and the shotgun in South Carolina. Well, there were 132,000 Negro voters to 99,000 white voters. How many times will 132 go into 99? How can you beat that majority in a fair vote? It can't be done. So we got together and organized every white man from 15 years upward, got arms and carried the election, and repealed the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, and carried the election by force and fraud and took the state away from the Negro. You wouldn't have stood it one year in Michigan, and we wouldn't have stood it if we hadn't remembered Sherman's march to the sea. The war freed the slave and settled nothing else." He alluded to the large majority of natives in Hawaii being governed by the small minority of whites, also to the present attitude of the Republican party regarding the Philippines and Puerto Ricans, and was vindictive in the extreme at what he denominated as the hypocryc of the Republicans in their inconsistency. There were a number of Negro students in the audience, and turning to them he said that their con- Hon. J. M. Frink, for eight years state senator, has formally announced his candidacy for the governorship of this state subject to the ratification of the regular Republican state convention. No man in King county is more highly respected by the public in general than Senator Frink, and he has scores of friends and admirers all over the state. That he will prove a most formidable candidate for the nomination and likewise for election if nominated goes without saying. King county now has three gubernatorial candidates, Hon. J. M. Frink, Mayor Thomas Jefferson Humes and Hon. E. H. Guie. tact with the whites and their improvement was simply "skin deep," like their color. He was hissed for this, when he replied: "When those who hissed will give their daughters to Negroes I will apologize and not sooner." He said that the little civilization that the Negro possessed is the direct result of contact with the white. He spoke of the hatred of the Negro for the White as a race, though he may possess friendship for individual white men. During servitude this hatred did not exist, as is proven by the fact that had it existed the Negro would have revenged himself on the family of his late master, while the latter was away to the war. This further shows, he said, that the cruelty mentioned by the Northerners, of the master toward his slave, must have been exaggerated. He spoke in a most contentious manner of the Negro, as a race, said they were lazy, shiftless, with no tenacity of purpose, etc., and that since their freedom they have deteriorated. Continuing, he said: "Education is a bar more than a benefit to them. When colored men learn to write they forge some one's name to obtain goods and money. Character is the main essential to life, and we look to the teaching of a mother to give the character to our great men. The Negro child in the South hasn't one good mother in one hundred. Sixty to 70 per cent. are totally lacking in virtue. The venture of Booker Washington is a total failure. The object of that and similar institutions is to graduate high-grade mechanics and teachers, but when they are graduated their learning would be futile, as the white man would not tolerate him in a competitive world. The Negro is fit only as a shoeblack, barber and other menial work, and in the cotton and rice fields." He said that he had no fears of the "race problem" if the whites in the North would only keep their hands off, and predicted that the Northner will not dare in the future to repeat its meddlesomeness of the past, as the precedent established in the Philippines, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, will forever bar any such interference. The address was loudly applauded, more on account of its brazen boldness than by merit in the talk. THANK'S BRE'R MAYS This paper sincerely wishes that half of the white men in Seattle were half as white as that Negro who edits that excellent weekly there. He is black, but his heart is always saying white things as pure as snow, and he upholds decency and morality and speaks right out on such subjects. The white population of Seattle should give that Negro brother 10,000 subscribers for his manly stand for law and order in that wicked city where the officials wink at many crimes.—Washington (Populist) Independent.

OUR STATE PRESS Comes to The Front This Week With Many New Ideas—Politics is Warmly Discussed Here and There—Seattle Politics Come in For a Double Dose—University of Washington—Notes of Unusual Interest—Track Teams Go Fast—Musicians Go North—Cadets Breaks Encampment. Who says that Matt Miles is politically dead? It can't be true, as the Hon. M. W. Miles, ex-member of the legislature, has been appointed one of the census takers of Douglas county. Was he dead, and is this a case of political resurrection?—Coulee City News. EXACTLY SO, SIR. We note that Susie Revels Cayton is now associate editor of the Seattle Republican. Is the associate editor the better half, Br'er Cayton?—Arlington Times. SERMON TO KING COUNTY. King county Republicans are betwixt and between. They ought to get together and settle their differences for the good of the whole party. Arlington Enterprise. THE REPUBLICANS CLUBS. The Republicans throughout the state are trying to "club" their voters into line. All the principal towns of the state now have their Republican club, and Seattle has two. They will need a Gatling gun to drive the voters to the Republican party this year—Mt. Vernon (Pop.) Argus. WANT MR. SCOBEY The political whirligig appears to be placing in the power of the Southwestern Washington to name the candidate for governor. If so, J. O'B. Scobey will probably be the man. And no better man can be found. He is able, conscientious, and strong with the party.—Hoquiam Washingtonian. OLYMPIA AND LEE HART. Our people have a high regard for Seattle. We admire the enterprise and grit of her people, and are ready almost at any time to sing hozannahs to anything she does, but when one of her prominent people, like Lee Hart, writes letters to our people in the interest of his accidenty, it is time to protest. The gall of the proceeding is evident to everybody who has expressed an opinion on the subject—Washington Standard. LETS GO UNITED. The Republicans of this county should not only go to the state convention united this year, but they should have no more candidates for state offices than a fair and impartial outsider with an intimate knowledge of the politics of this state would say ought to be nominated from Kang county. If we do this, using ordinary political sagacity in the selection of our candidates, we will get what we ask for—if we ask for everything, we will be liable to get nothing.—Auburn Argus. LECTURES COL. BLETHEN. The Seattle fusion organ says there are no differences in the fusion ranks, yet in another column publishes a severe criticism of Governor Rogers' recent interview, written by Judge Winsor, a rock-rooted, pioneer Populist. Judge Winsor says that he is convinced that "three-fourths of the People's party are opposed to the surrendering of the autonomy or existence of the party," as the judge evidently thinks the governor has done.—Colfax Gazette. SEATTLE'S BIG PAPER There is talk of another big daily in Seattle. People may damn the P.-I., but they must admit that it is a great, a magnificent newspaper, and PRICE FIVE CENTS it will require a mountain of money and a hoghead of brains to give the people anything as good. And, after it is started, it will take more to keep it going. More, more, more, is the cry in a bucking venture in the newspaper field.—Ellensburg Capital. HUMES AND ANKENY. The Seattle Republican tells us that Levi Ankeny, of Walla Walla put $8,000 cash into the municipal campaign in Seattle in the interest of Mayor Humes. Humes wants to be governor and Ankeny wants to be senator, but perhaps the $8,000 was in partial payment for stalking horse services on the part of Humes during the last senatorial campaign.—Tacoma News. WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY The university corps of cadets has been encamped for the past week at Magnolia bluff. This is the first time since the establishment of the department of military science and tactics that the cadets have had an opportunity of enjoying an encampment. The most of them appear to have taken kindly to the regular routine of military life. Some, whose duties required them to come to town, enjoyed the special privilege of doing so, while to many others the duties of military camp life were made to apply strictly. Besides the University boys the Seattle High School cadets were also encamped at the same place, and both joined in drill and other duties. The absence of those pupils who belong to the cadet corps, together with the departure of the Glee and Mandolin Clubs, the University track team and one of the debating teams, has this week given the University halls the appearance of being deserted. The Glee and Mandolin Clubs will play in the cities of Everett and Snohomish during the week. The University track team, under the efficient management of A. D. Remington, will take part in athletic meets at Whitman College, Walla Walla, on Wednesday, and at the Washington Agricultural College at Pulman on Friday of next week. Some of the best known on this team are: Fred Chestnut, Carl Morford, Sterling Hill, Chimie Hill and Glen Calkins. At the Agricultural College the University debating team, consisting of Dan Millette, E. J. Wright and Will H. Lambe, will meet a similar team and discuss the following subject: "Resolved. That combinations in restraint of trade should be restrained by a national law, so as to promote competition." Before leaving a grand rally was given in Denny hall and all went on their way feeling in the best of spirits. Former customs do not seem to serve as a precedent to the Junior class of this year but very little. Some two weeks ago many of them conceived the novel idea of electing class officers this year for the Senior class of next year. At a meeting held last Wednesday in accordance with this scheme the following officers were elected to take office at the beginning of the autumn term: Ralph M. Johnson, president; Miss Zoe Kineaid, vice president; Miss Gratia Prosch, secretary, and J. C. Lane, treasurer. President Graves has been in Olympia for the last week pushing the work on the catalogue of 1900-1901, and it is now definitely known that it will be on hand for distribution in the course of about a week. It is also understood that a great improvement has been made in this issue over former ones. The students of the law department will in the near future celebrate the close of their very successful year's work with a sort of house warming. At present it is not known whether this affair is to be a banquet or a masquerade ball, but those who have the affair in charge claim that it will far outdo the Junior proms, the Sophomore frolics or the Freshmen glees.

Cayton, Editor Susie Revels Cayton, Associate Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second Class Mail Matter. McKinley's Long and Bryan's Towne begin to look presidential-like in the shape of Republican and Democratic nominations. In reply to the P.-I. query, "What is a Democrat?" we would like to say, he, she or it is a—a—a—a—well, an any and every old thing, in which an angel is not included. May 17th is Norwegian Fourth of July, and those Norwegians that have cast their lots in the far Northwest will celebrate the occasion with appropriate ceremonies on that day and date. Those local Republicans who took part in the Democratic contest last Tuesday evening had little to do, to say the least, but what more could be expected of a Piper and men who will follow him politically or otherwise. Hon. John W. Foster's prediction that England would yet rue her South African war to most people sounds unusually sensible. It looks to us as though she has already done that very thing. If Tacoma is to loose 800 or 1,000 of her citizens in the coming Nome rush a surrender of her city charter might be the result. That's quite a few persons to leave Tacoma all at once—its dangerous, brothren, and you should prevent it at all hazards. When that witness shouted from the witness stand to Attorney John E. Humphries, "You are a liar!" the crowd looked quizzically at each other, as much as to say, He, a total stranger here, and has found that out so soon. It's queer how secrets will leak out. That Coeur d'Alene inquiry has been long drawn out, but it has absolutely failed to discover the person that actually "hit Billy Patterson" after all. Rioters will not find much sympathy either in or out of congress, spew and sputter as they will or may. Grant it that Mark Hanna will not run the next national Republican campaign. There seems to be no doubt but that Mark will be dead next to the man who does run it. When it comes to getting votes for a presidential election, Mark Hanna is a hummer. Dewey's swing around the political circles has caused Bryan presidential stock to take quite a slump on the market. It has also brought out the fact that all Democrats are not for hauling down the old flag from over territory where it has been honorably raised by successful and unavoidable war. In explanation of what Quo Vadis meant the Hebrew advance agent of the company that recently visited this city playing Quo Vadis said, "it was a Christin play, for it showed how Christianity was extinguished under Nero." How he could harmonize these two extremes is the question he left unexplained. Jim Hill talks a good deal about his depot building, but no one has ever yet seen any depot that Mr. Hill has built anywhere along his transcontinental line. James J. Hill appears to be the long missing link of humanity that is able to fool all of the people all of the time on his depot promises. Two national Populist conventions during the present week have afforded wind enough to produce howls and squalls all over the country. They have, apparently, given the country the most windy May that it has witnessed for many years. Such is always the inevitable outcome of too much Populism. Texas has been rain-ridden, sunscorched, storm soaked and water washed to a greater extent this season that ever before during its entire history. Texas has posed as hell's half acre for many years, and the mills of the gods, which grind slowly but surely, seem to be getting in their work of retribution on those fiends in human garb. Senator Addison G. Foster seems to be able to keep his political promises just about as well as an Indian would his promise to be good, if he was only given all of the "firewater" that he could get on the outside of. It should occur to the senator that a term of six years slowly but surely comes to an end, when all of his official acts will be talked over again. Attorney De Bruller is well posted now on the "open door" policy, as he got a severe case of slaps from an open Dore. The attack was rather sudden, but De Bruller is much better now, and promises to be good. Japan will soon discover that Bellows can come from more countries than Johnny Bull's. Uncle Sam's Bellows will soon be head at Yokohama, Japan. We suspect that Bartlett Tripp asked for the endorsement of the Western delegation for the Republican vice presidency more as a send-off for him to get a trip to Turkey as United States minister than he did in anticipation of him getting a trip to the White House. Bartlett is not bothering himself about such a nomination, for he knows he will not get it. When the general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, now sitting at Columbus, O., passed resolutions of sympathy with England in her South African war "for right," it was but another corroboration of "blood is thicker than water." The Boers had mistreated the African blacks, and those resolutions from the American blacks were nothing more nor less than a racial retaliation. Methodist missionaries have laid out much to accomplish for the Lord ere the present year closes. Two million souls and twenty million dollars to be given to the cause of Christ is a gigantic undertaking for Methodism in one year, yet that is just what it declares it proposes to do this year. Missionary Bishop Thoburn is taking the active lead in this work, and he has always been eminently successful in such undertakings. We wish the efforts the utmost success. Union labor finds it an up hill business to stop "white men" from eating at Jap restaurants, and in many instances even men who pretend to sympathize with union labor. When a man is hungry and has a limited amount of money to eat on, he will always eat at the restaurant that he can get the most and best for his money, regardless of the nationality that is running such restaurant. Competition is the life of trade, and the man that can not successfully compete in any line of business will eventually go to the wall, whether he be white, black, grizzly or gray. Washington state's famous lumbering region—Grays Harbor country—is to have an up-to-date daily and weekly paper in the near future, the Aberdeen Bulletin plant and paper having been secured for such a conversion. General Prosperity may not give his sanction to such an enterprise as liberally as those interested would like for him to do, and all because it might impress him as not being feasible. To conduct such daily papers means the expenditure of much money and the loss of all expended for some time to come, and perhaps forever. Overconfidence has ruined many a man. New coaling stations in the far East are acquisitions rather essential to the good of this country in these latter days of territorial expansion. To that end the United States has recently secured a coaling station in Liberia, the black republic on the west coast of Africa. This feeble little offspring of the United States in that far-away land may yet prove to be bread cast upon the waters and become an ally of this country not to be despised by even a Pitchfork Tillman. With Liberia as a basis from which to operate the United States navy would cut quite a swath in Eastern waters regardless of the nation she was at war with. It does not naturally follow that Senator Hanna and ex-Senator Quay have falien out simply because the former paired against the latter in his fight for a seat in the United States senate. Our Democratic contemporaries brand both of these men as being the quintessence of corruption, when it comes to politics, but when it comes to speaking of them in general they readily pronounce them the highest types of "white superiority." If political knavery, such as Hanna and Quay are branded with by the opposition press, is the capping climax of American civilization, then a little of it ought to go a long ways, and heathendom and brigandage are to be preferred a hundred times over to it. Seattle, we earnestly believe, is deserving of one of the two members of congress this year that are to be elected from this state, but under the present conditions of affairs in the political arena of this state there seems to be no good show of succeeding in such an attempt, that being a fact it is the duty of every King county Republican to work so as to unite all party differences to the extent as to be able to demand of the state convention the nomination of a governor and a supreme judge. It is useless to here add that the reason that King county does not get anything at the hands of the Republican party is because it does not ask for it, for that has been repeatedly said and pointed out. Splitting hairs on impossibilities and delusions should no longer be indulged in by King county citizens. There is a proposition before the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church now sitting in Chicago to give the Negro communicants of that religious body a bishop from their ranks, whose jurisdiction shall be confined solely to presiding over Negro conferences of that church. This is to appease the Negro's cry for a Negro bishop. We trust that such proposition will not receive the sanction of a single member of that conference. If the color line is to be drawn in that great Christian organization that the Negro may appear to be getting justice, better by far not to have any bishop at all elected from among the colored communicants. Perhaps sometime in the future enough Christianity will be found in the church to recognize every human being therein as a man and brother, his color or nationality to the contrary notwithstanding. Until then, let the Negroes either remain as they are or withdraw from the Methodist church in a body. Bending the faith to meet a condition is very poor Christianity regardless of who does the bending. We will be glad, to mail your friends in the East a sample copy of THE REPUBLICAN.

The Pie-maker has taken the stand that Levi Ankeney proposes to run the politics of this state and proposes to run them by no other means than by dollars and dimes, and the allegation made herein some time prior does not now seem without the best kind of foundation, and in corroboration of said allegation the following article is clipped from the Walla Walla Argus, published at Mr. Ankeny's home: "The great fight of the Ankeny men this year will be to elect a majority of the hold-over state senators with a view to the election of a successor to Senator Turner in 1903 Ankeny is going to make his supreme effort during the next three years to reach the goal of his ambition, and to that end he is prepared to expend the half of his fortune of four or five millions. --- To further substantiate the Ankeny theory here advanced, one J. Howard Watson, formerly chief son-of-a-gun on the Post-Intelligence under the Turner-Piper regime, announced one day last week that he was the purchaser of the Walla Walla Union, a daily and weekly paper published in that city. Now, Watson has not put one red cent in that paper, no more so than did the Pipers in the Post-Intelligence; it is owned pure and simple by Levi Ankeny, and it was bought by him for a political convenience. There is no doubt but that he had hoped to be able to put in a dailyy newspaper in Seattle under the management of the Piper hirelings, but that seems a forlorn hope, owing to not being able to get a news service, though he still has hopes of seeing the deal go through. It is stated on very good authority that Ankeny now controls the Olympian, so far as its political policy is concerned, owing to much filthy lucre he has deposited in its money tills, and he is very near the throne of the Spokesman-Review. With the newspaper combination brought about by dollars! dollars! dollars! he stands ready to try to have himself elected to the United States senate, all the same Clark of Montana. Now, voters of the state of Washington, who is the political autocrat? Who is it that considers you and each of you as so many dumb driven cattle, with no manhood beyond a mercenary one that stands ready and willing to sell yourself to the highest bidder at all times, places and under all circumstances? --- It looks to the Pie-maker like Grafter Chadwick did not find the library commissionership a very lucrative place from a grafting standpoint, and he therefore resigned. Chaddy does not seem to care for any place if he cannot get his financial grafts to work. The Piper followers say that Chadwick uses Sheriff Van De Vanter as a pretext for breaking with the Humes faction, but he broke simply because the Ankeny-Piper money politicians refused to dig up any more. --- The Republican would be under many obligations to you for a good word to your advertising friends in its behalf. It takes money to run a newspaper, and unless money comes from some source, advertising or otherwise, no newspaper can run very long. --- Leander Butt, the well-known optician of Seattle, has taken a place with the new jewelry firm of L. Goldman & Co., which is about ready to open business in the store room in the Burke block, corner Second avenue and Marion street. Mr. Butt is a splendid workman, and the new firm did well in securing his services. --- Now that Bert Taylor has admitted that he is doing the editorial work on the Bee at a handsome salary per week, the Pie-maker is of the opinion that no one but Levi Ankeny, under the guise of George Piper, is putting up the money to run the paper with. Not being able to start a daily paper, the gang is making use of a weekly paper. There is one commendable thing, however, in the Ankeny people using the Bee, they show that they are not prejudiced to the black race, for the paper continues to sail under the name of D. W. Griffin. All men have some redeeming features, and perhaps this is Mr. Ankeny's. --- The friends of Harry Gordon will learn with much regret that he has resigned his position as head book-keeper at the Seattle Gas & Electric Company, of this city, and will sail for Cape Nome within the next few days. Harry has been a staunch Republican and hard party worker in King county for many years, and during all of his political career he has never at one time sulked in his seat because any nomination did not suit him. As a business man no better can be found, and he justly merit the splendid salary that has been offered him to go north. "I hope to be among the boys again," said he one day this week, "and I will, for Seattle is my home. I do not know how long I will be gone, but I hope to earn cough dollars while I am gone to, to some extent, repay me for what I have lost. I have no complaints to make of the past, but feel safe in saying that I think I see a much brighter future for myself when I do return, provided I keep my health. I intend to stay by either this proposition or some other until I am out of the woods. Am quite sorry to leave the boys at this time, but self-preservation is the first law of nature." Mr. Gordon has held various positions of honor and merit since he has been in the Northwest, and so far as the Pie-maker has ever heard nothing but words of commendation has been uttered by the public as to his record while in those places, and this very fact gave him the new position, which is to pay him a round up-to-date salary at Nome. --- The Hart-Godwin primary fight was a fight right, in which quite a good deal of fighting was indulged. The primaries were held last Tuesday evening, and so mixed up was if that both sides are now claiming a victory. There will be two contesting delegations from the city, and if Godwin has a majority of the country delegates, as he now claims he has, his delegation will be seated, and thus give him the desired victory. The Hart's met more opposition than they had anticipated, and even though Godwin is turned down by the convention tomorrow (Saturday) he has demonstrated to the complete satisfaction of the Harts that he is to be considered in making up their political "cake walks" in the future. The convention on the morrow promises to be a warm baby, one of the warmest that has ever been held in this city. The Godwin people have come out and indorsed James Hamilton Lewis for second place on the Bryan ticket, while the Hart people have remained mute as mice on that subject. If Mr. Lewis gets anything like a complimentary vote for vice president he will be pushed by a certain wing of the fusionists for governor of this state, hoping if successful in that, to have him succeed George Turner as United States senator. This the Hartites bitterly oppose, and rather than to see Lewis succeed they prefer to see the Democratic party defeated. There seems to be no doubt but that the factional fight in the Demo-Fusion party in this county is in a hundred times worse shape than the Republican' According to rumor George U. Piper took an active part in the Democratic primaries in the interest of Lee Hart and will endeavor to pull the ribbons in a princely manner in the county convention to be held tomorrow in the interest of Lee Hart. George Piper and Lee Hart are said to be two of a kind. --- Old Bill White's speech one day last week, wherein he is reported as having said that "in the future he would be with his party, that he had felt mean and miserable ever since he had temporarily wandered from its teachings, but he was with the old party now to support whomever it GARITA ROMAN MARQUES JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS Who has just returned from the East where it is claimed he has arranged with William Jennings Bryan to be the latters running mate on the presidential ticket. The King County Democratic convention which will be in session tomorrow (Saturday) will doubtless endorse Mr. Lewis' candidacy. Providing the Harts are turned down by the Godwins, which at this writing seems almost certain of being done. Mr. Lewis has personally announced his candidacy. nominated here or elsewhere," all of which is interpreted to mean that Old Bill White would support Bryan for president on an anti-expansion platform or any other kind of a platform, and that what he said in opposition to Bryan's policy of hauling down the flag was another one of Old Bill White's periodical jim-jams. On the return of the Washington soldier boys from Manila no man in the country spoke more warmly of the retention of the Philippine islands than Old Bill White, which caused widespread comment at the time. It was openly remarked by Democrats that Old Bill's place was in the Republican party and his resignation as national committeeman was demanded, and he stood perfectly willing to resign rather than move one jot or tittle from his expansion doctrines, but the Pie-maker knew he would not stand by his guns, and at that time the following article touching on the matter appeared in these columns: In the last issue of the Republican you define Old Bill White's political status. You say he has served notice on the "Bryan-Atkinson anti-Americans" that, if they insist on the hauling down of the Stars and Stripes in the Philippines they can count him forever against them. Of course he said this. No one doubts it. Nor does any one believe him. Old Bill, sometimes called "War Horse White," is an uncertain quantity, excepting in one respect, that is, that he can be depended upon to vote the Democratic ticket without regard to the candidate or the platform. Now, place yourself on record as saying Old Bill will support the nominees of the Democratic party no matter what that platform says. The platform can quote (as nearly as I can remember) from the Democratic platform during the war of the rebellion: "We denounce the war as a failure and demand the immediate cessation of hostilities." The platform can demand the (disgraceful and humiliating) withdrawal of the troops and the surrender of an army and the hauling down of a flag—a flag that was never hauled down but once in the history of the country, and that upon the order of the last Democratic president, and Old Bill will support that platform and vote for the nominees of the convention that adopts such a platform. Now, see if he does not. In the same article you speak of Judge Winsor as "Slippery Dick," who is on record as saying about the same thing. Both men are pretty well known here, and Judge Winsor no more deserves the name "Slippery Dick" than Mr. White deserves the name "War Horse White." Of course he plays "horse" a good deal politically, but you can depend upon his swallowing the Democratic platform, candidates and all. You can also place yourself on record as saying Judge Winsor will stand by his guns and Old Bill will go on the stump defending the "Bryan-Altgeld-Atkinson-Aguinaldo" combine and denouncing Judge Winsor for not doing the same thing. You can reproduce this article during the campaign and take the best hat in town if it is not true. The Republicans of this city are somewhat divided as to whether they should go to the next state convention fighting for one of the members of the lower house of congress from this state or to ask for the governorship and one of the members of the supreme bench. The one side reasons that the two latter places can bring to Seattle no real good, while should they be successful in getting the latter place it would mean much from a financial standpoint for the Queen City. The Pie-maker is of the opinion that the latter is the thing that Seattle really needs, but he sees no way in the world for her to get that need. Frank Cushman took the nomination which gave him a congressional seat when Seattle's "statesmen" absolutely refused it because they believed Lewis could not be defeated. Now the Republicans all over the state believe that Cushman should have another term, since it is the custom of Republicans to give their officials a second term. If King county starts in now to make an aggressive fight to turn Cushman down she will find, when she gets to the state convention, that she has not many friends with her on that point, and it might result in her not getting a single thing at the hands of the convention. If King county Republicans will unite and fight for the two places named above, the Pie-maker is of the opinion that no combination can defeat their wishes in this particular, but, if they begin to squabble among themselves, then all will be lost. "There is danger of Tom Humes capturing the nomination if King should decide on such a course," reason a few politicians. This the Pie-maker does not believe, but if Tom Humes has more friends in this county than the combination opposing him, then he is entitled to King county's endorsement and the nomination. The people should have the say as to whom the county will indorse, and if after a fair and square fight, Tom Humes, E. H. Guie or any other old guy wins in King, then as Republicans let's turn in and fight for his nomination. The Pie-maker believes that J. M. Frink is a two to one stronger man than either Humes or Guie, or any one else that has been spoken of in connection with the gubernatorial nomination from this county, and if his friends will rally to his support as they should he will get the unanimous endorsement of the entire county for the governorship. ```markdown ``` Wilson's 1919 TO 1923 SECOND AVE.

SEATTLE THEATER Part number two of the big travesty entertainment produced by Ward and Vokes during the summer in Chicago was called "The Floor Walkers." This part has since been re-written, added to and vaudevillized, until it is now the new, two-act review employed by Warde and Vokes for their sixth year as farcine NINE REPUBLICAN uand comedy stars. "The Floor Walkers" will be seen at the Seattle theater next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Of course these favorite comedians are surrounded by a big company of capable people, and the entertainment is the best foot forward of the entire company. Ward and Vokes have the faculty of knowing just how to stage their goods and blend their material into a fun show which has P ever given full value for money received. Their success is merited by their sincerity. The organization this year is numerically larger than ever. The new vehicle has been given the benefit of a sumptuous scenic dress, while the costumes are fully up to the previous standard of the organization. All this, of course, is provided for the eye. The individual members of the company are all specialists in some line, and their talents form a large part of the programme. There is a large chorus of pretty girls who are able to sing, and --- do sing. In short, "The Floor Walkers" promises to be the annual Ward and Vokes treat. The play at the Third Avenue theater, commencing next Sunday night is one that appeals to the better part of man. The story of "Quo Vadis" has been so widely read in the past two years that there have been many dramatizations made of this historical romance. The play is essentially what might be called a religious one, as it depicts the downfall of paganism and the birth of Christianity. The actors engaged for the production of this play number among them some of the best ever seen in a local theater. The scenery has been expressly paintd and will be on a scale of grandeur never equaled on the coast. Managers Russell and Drew have already expended over a thousand dollars on the production, and they assure patrons that they will not regreat a visit to "Quo Vadis" at the Third Avenue theater next week. Notwithstanding the magnitude of the production the prices will remain as usual. The main objection to socialism is its impracticability in the present stage of civilization. Partial socialism, however, has already made great headway. Our present industrial corporations are partially socialistic. Individual capitalists co-operate, forming large combinations of capital. These in turn are gathered into trusts and monopolies, and are all socialistic. A citizen may be a warm advocate of governmental or municipal control of public utilities without advocating socialism in its full form If the whole scheme of socialism is to ideal for the present age of the world, partial application of its principles should not be ignorantly termed anarchistic or communistic, for it is neither lawless in spirit nor does it crave a community of goods, an equality with reference to diversity of gifts by nature. If full-orbed socialism presents too much of the impractical, that should be no reason why we should refuse to accept the portion that is both practical and beneficial.
