The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Historical Society VOL. VII NO.: 10 '96-'00 STATISTICS Interstate Commerce—A Foreign Trade of Two and a Quarter Billion Dollars--Exports - Imports—Money in Circulation - Increase of Railroad Employese—Other Items of Interest. (Special Correspondence.) The statistical report of the interstate commerce commission shows for the year ending June 30, 1899, the total single track mileage in the United States was 189,294, an increase for the year of 2,898. This increase is greater than for any year since 1893. The aggregate length of mileage, including tracks of all sorts, was 252,364. There were 36,703 locomotives in service at the end of the year, of 469 more than for the year ended June 30, 1898. The total number of cars of all classes in the service was 1,375,916, an increase of 49,742. The number of persons employed on railroads was 928,924, and increase for the year of 54,366. All these improvements are a part of the existing prosperity under this administration. On June 1, 1896, the total circulation of money in the United States was $1,521,584,283. Of this amount a little less than $500,000,000 was in the form of gold and gold certificates. In the following four years the enormous sum of half a billion dollars has been added to the people's money. This is in excess of the coinage value of all the silver mined in the United States, at a ratio of 16 to 1, since 1896. The per capita circulation of the country has expanded from $21.35 on June 1, 1896, to $26.50 on June 30, 1900—a gain of $5.15 per capita in four years. The foreign trade of the United States for the fiscal year just ended, amounted to almost two and a quarter billion dollars, and was the largest in our history. Imports amounted to $849,714,329, and the exports of American products and manufactures were $1,394,479,214. The aggregate figures of our foreign trade reached $2,344,193,543. Compared with previous years the imports of the 1900 fiscal year have been exceeded only once, in 1893, when they were $16,700,000 larger. The value of our exports last year has never been exceeded, the largest previous total being for 1898, when they were $163,000,000 less than in the year just ended. The following table shows our imports and exports in each fiscal year since 1890: Year- Imports. Exports. 1890 $789,310,409 $ 857,828,684 1891 844,916,198 844,988,810 1892 837,409,928 837,409,928 1893 866,400,922 867,465,194 1894 654,994,622 892,140,572 1895 731,969,965 807,558,165 1896 731,724,671 852,606,538 1897 764,720,411 1,231,482,320 1898 619,695,644 1,231,482,320 1899 697,148,489 1,227,023,302 1890 849,714,329 1,394,479,214 Total foreign Favorable Trade Year— 1890 $1,947,159,092 $68,518,278 1890 $1,729,337,906 $39,564,614 1890 $1,657,884,006 $39,564,614 1890 $1,744,016,918 $71,757,728 1894 $1,574,135,914 $277,115,950 1894 $1,539,508,139 $75,568,200 1894 $1,608,263,121 $75,568,200 1894 $1,515,723,988 $286,263,144 1898 $1,847,531,985 $615,432,676 1898 $1,924,171,791 $259,874,813 1890 $2,244,193,543 $414,764,885 *Unfavorable. Only once from 1890 to 1900 has our foreign trade balance been against us, and that was to the extent of $18,737,728, in 1893. During the other ten years the balance of our foreign trade in our favor amounted to $2,702,880,507, or at the average rate of $270,288,000 a year. During the last four years our favorable foreign trade balance has reached almost two billion dollars— to be exact. $1,976,335,518 During the three complete fiscal years 1898-1900, under the administration of President McKinley, our favorable foreign trade balance aggregated no less a sum than $1,690,072,374. We are more than a two billion dollar country as far as our foreign trade is concerned—we are well on the way to being a three billion dollar country. This is expansion of the best kind. Now for one more comparison, showing how the foreign trade of the United States compares with that of Great Britain and of Germany, the figures for the two latter countries being for the calendar year ending December 31, 1899, while those for the United States are for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1900: The imports of the United States are the smallest, and our exports are the results of the late Republican the largest. Therefore our trade balance must be the most favorable. Let us see what it is: **Total Foreign Trade Balance** **Country**..... **Country** Great Britain ..... $3,650,691,028 ..... $1,070,648,950 Germany ..... 2,186,846,340 ..... -286,330,429 United States ..... 2,244,136,854 ..... +544,764,885 Last year Great Britain had an unfavorable trade balance that exceeded a billion dollars. Germany's unfavorable trade balance amounted to $286,930,420. But the trade balance in favor of the United States amounted to $544,764,885. Another fact that is very important is this: The United States is now a larger exporting nation than the United Kingdom, our exports last year exceeding those of the mother country by $104,508,175. The director of the mint states that there are $16,628,323 of 5-cent pieces and $9,952,892 of 1-cent pieces outstanding. This gives an idea of the enormous number of these little coins necessary to transact the business of the country. Since the coinage of these pieces began the total number that have been coined is, of 5-cent pieces, $17,991,298; 1-cent bronze, $10,072,316. Imports of merchandise at Manila in 1899 were worth $17,450,412 the duty collected thereon being $3,364,090. The value of the goods received from the United States was $1,350,364, China, England and Spain each supplying more than this country. The new commercial arrangement with Germany is made under the third section of the Dingley law, and is within the complete discretion of the president. The duty on argols imported from Germany is fixed at 5 per cent. ad valorem; brandies or other distilled spirits, $1.75 per proof gallon; champagne and other sparkling wines, in quart bottles, $6 per dozen; still wines and vermouth, in casks, 35 cents per gallon, and paintings in oil or water colors, pastels, pen and ink drawings and statuary, 15 per cent. ad valorem. Our exports of meat and food products to Germany will benefit by getting rid of some of the exacting and discriminating duties which have heretofore been levied or threatened. ORGANIZING A BATTALION Lieut. Col. Frank W. Spear is making arrangements to organize a battalion of cavalry in this state. Two troops are to be organized in Seattle, one in Spokane and one in Tacoma. It has been suggested that one company should be colored, both officers and men. The colored troops will be assigned to Seattle, but will be drawn from every part of the state. Active recruiting will be commenced in September, and in case of war the battalion will be ready for foreign service by November. It is said that large bodies of cavalry will be required for service in China. The intention of Col. Spear and the other officers will be to offer the services of the battalion direct to the secretary of war. It is also possible that two other battalions will be organized in Oregon and Idaho, making a full regiment. It is said that Lieut. Smith, late of the independent battalion, is slated for captain of the Tacoma troop, and that Lieut. Leonard P. Spear will be selected as battalion adjutant. The officers of the various troops will be elected by the men as soon as fifty men are enrolled in each troop. All communications should be addressed to Lieut. Leonard P. Spear acting adjutant, No. 1020 First avenue, Seattle, Wash. Seattle should breathe easy once more as the "foreign devils" have been crushed in the politics of King county. They died hard but died they did. Knickerbocker, Lysons and Lewis, their aids, should follow their masters to new fields, where pastures will be more green for the laddies. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1900. NEW ORLEANS HAS A Desperate Negro Desperado Who Defends His Life to the Bitter End, Killing Eleven Persons and Fatally Wounding Others—He is Finally Killed, but Sells His Life Very Dearly—Other Race News. Charles, the desperate New Orleans Negro, may have been flagrantly guilty of crime ere the first attempt was made by the officers of the law to arrest him. He may have bene even more guilty of crime in deliberately shooting to death the two officers of the law who attempted to arrest him, but perhaps the crime that he was originally guilty of was such a mature that he knew he would be lynched if he was ever taken into the custody of the officers, for it must be remembered that Negroes are lynched for most any petty offence that they commit in the South; and for that reason he determined to not be arrested and divested of every means for the protection of his life. After he had killed two men he was quite confident that to be taken alive meant a most horrible death for him, hence he fought with a desperation that knew no bounds, when once cornered. When a man single-handed and alone succeeds in standing off a mob as did Charles and selting out his life as dearly as did he, some how or other there goes up a spark of admiration for the man from the bosom of all brave men. The cries of "Burn him at the stake!" and "Kill him!" which he could hear from the turbulent mob that surged about his temporary fort told him too plainly that his hours were numbered. He therefore said, "Though I go I shall take company with me!" and every time his Winchester rung out a man bit the dust, and he continued thus until some eleven persons had been killed. It has been a long time since a colored man in the South showed so much bravery, but this one is to be commended for selling out just as dearly as he did. It not only took the entire police force of New Orleans, but the state militia as well to kill their man, and when they succeeded they found that it had been done so at a terrible loss to the "superior race," who had joined in a nigger hunt. The enraged white citizens, Chinese Boxer-like, not being able to kill the man they wanted, killed every other colored man they could see, yet they now realize what it is to arrest a Negro who knows he is going to be lynched and makes up his mind to sell out as dearly as possible. Let the same spirit of bravery, desperation, or whatever you may call it, be common among the Southern Negroes and lynch law will not be of much longer duration. Would it have been possible or probable that Charles or other Negroes to get a fair and impartial trial when they commit crime, then it would be the duty of all Negroes to help to bring to justice any Negro that commits a crime against the peace and dignity of the state; but such is impossible, and inasmuch as it is to be force against force, violence and desperation against such, and mobs against mobs, then it is the duty of the Negro population of the South to play its part and play it just as did Charles of New Orleans. NEGROES TREATED INHU- MANLY. Repeatedly has The Republican pointed out the fact that, if the Negroes of the South were treated as humanely as they are in the North and other sections of the globe, where they are to be found in great numbers, there would not now nor would there ever have existed a race conflict between the whites and the blacks in the South. Now comes the Medical Record, one of the leading periodicals of the country, and declares that the Negro, who existed in large numbers, so large as to be at one time considered alarming, in the country of Mexico, who, having been taken to Mexico under similar circumstances as brought to this country, for slaves, but who were freed in 1813; but not having been branded joint to exercise the right of suffrage now than when he was set free. While his white brethren are constantly advancing in the art of better citizenship the Negro is deteriorating, are some of the adverse criticisms the Negro is getting these days even from persons and localities he did not expect. In the state of North Carolina today the "red shirt" terror reigns supreme, hoping to make a majority of the white citizens vote to negative the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the constitution of the Federal government, because, forsooth, the Negro has not accomplished since he has been free all that the prejudiced minds of the whites expected him to do. But how about the educational condition of the white men in that state who are voting to disfranchise the Negro? The following extract has been taken from the census report and will throw a different light on the subject in North Carolina: Illiteracy in North Carolina is increasing, particularly among the whites. By the census of 1870 there were 38,111 illiterate white voters in North Carolina; in 1880, 44,420; in 1890, 49,570—an average increase of 800 illiterate voters a year, and a total of 21 per cent. of the entire white voting population. It strikes the writer that if the illiterate whites and blacks were all disfranchised in North Carolina and the South in general, there would no longer be disturbing elements in the political world down there. Such a proceeding, it must be admitted, would mean a loss of three-fifths of the white voters and four-fifths of the colored from the poll books, but it would eliminate from the suffrage list the ignorant and illiterate, who know no more about what they are voting for and about than a stone statue, and it would then be an easy matter for the educated blacks and whites to harmonize their differences. REPUBLICAN TICKET The King County Republican Convention is a thing of the past It took it two days to complete its labors, but it did them well. Hon. J. M. Frinks, endorsed by an overwhelming majority for governor and sixty-three delegates will work as a unit for his nomination. The nefarious and hellish-plot on the part of the Piper-Humes Ankeny gang to steal the convention, most signally miscarried. Mr. S. H. Piles was made the presiding officer. For Sheriff A. T.

According to reports Western Washington is a bit wormy these days. The Seattle Republican feels that it has personal reasons to rejoice over primaries in this city. Know all men by these presents that the Piper-Humes-Ankeny nightmare in King county has been completely broken. Murdering European royalty by anarchists is still a pastime in that country, King Humbert of Italy being the latest victim. In our opinion the number of Republicans in Nebraska that will vote for William Jennings Bryan is so small that it will not affect the result in a single particular. Oom Paul's soldiers, beaten and disheartened, are rapidly surrendering to the British army. This must be sad news to one Webster Davis, a late Democratic convert. It may have taken Mr. Hotweather some considerable time to get in action in Western Washington, but he imaily succeeded, and has been holding a not hand since he has been in action. By November next Seattle folk will be drinking Cedar river water, fresh and fine from the mountain top. We trust this will lessen the demand for that muchly advertised mountain beer. Congratulations are still in order for the Tacoma News, which succeeded in whapping the Tacoma Ledger to an immortal standstill, and then gobbling it up while it was standing still. Most communities are always seriously troubled with two human nuisances, whose cognomens are hornblower and headswett. Seattle is no exception to the rule, as both of the above-named parasites perambulate her streets daily. "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, wrote some cynic. The cynic must have had in mind a certain would-be newspaper man in this city when he thus wrote, for the little education he has makes him a very despicable man in this community. It is variously estimated that Mr. Levi Ankeny caused to be spent in the neighborhood of $20,000 in the late primary election in King county, and, as in Spokane, most ignominiously lost. Money can buy some men, Mr. Ankeny, but it cannot buy all men. In a "ticket" recently published by a Seattle Republican paper, Superintendent J. D. Atkinson, of this county, is named for commissioner of public lands.—Chelan Leader. And it looks as though he will be named by the state Republican convention. Census enumerators are getting a good deal of unnecessary cusing these days. Those persons who argue that the e umrators willfully did up their respective cities and communities as to their actual population are talking through their hats. The enumerators had their cities as much at heart as the other fellow, and we believe that all of them did their duty to their very best ability, and enumerated every man, woman and child that came under their searching observation. The Seattle Republican, although it is beyond doubt the best weekly --- in the state, is badly handicapped just now by the hallucination that Seattle is the whole state of Washington, and, consequently, that the Republican nominee for governor and nearly all the other state offices must come from Seattle. The next governor should be an Eastern Washington man, and King county (Seattle) should not be given more than one place on the state ticket. Hoggishness always deserves heroic treatment—and generally gets it good and strong.—Colville News Letter. We are very thankful to you for the compliment, but are compelled to take issue with you as to our position. King county Republicans are not asking for but one place on the state ticket, and that they think they are justly entitled to, and will insist on having that place—the governorship—tendered to a King county citizen. MR. FRINK'S CANDIDACY. That it was a blunder on the part of Postmaster Stewart to write any kind of a political letter during a campaign all will admit, but the letter disclosed nothing that was not already known to the general public. The mere fact that the Post-Intelligence was supporting Mr. Frink was sufficient proof that Mr. Frink's candidacy met Hon. John L. Wilson's hearty approval, for does not Mr. Wilson own the Post-Intelligence? That "proof sufficient" circular was nothing more or less than wasted energy on the part of the sap-heads who issued it. Wilson has the right to support any man he chooses to, just the same as any other citizen, and it does not mean, or should not mean, that the man he supports is any more tied to him than he is tied to the hundred and one other men that support him. It occurs to us that Mr. Frink is almost as honorable, and his word can be relied upon as safely as that of George U. Piper. Perhaps in this we are mistaken, but we do not believe it. Frink has said he was tied to no senatorial kite, and yet these circular issuers declare that in this he lied; if not in so many words, they imply as much. The public has Senator Frink's word to be placed in an opposite balance to that of George U. Piper, which will it believe? Men who have lived honorable lives, who have reared Christian families, and who have begun in the community as poor laboring men and worked themselves up to the head of a great industrial institution may not be worthy of any more public consideration in a case of personal veracity than the man who spends his life in "grafting" first one politician and then another, who spends his time in haunts of vice and halls of revelry with women of easy virtue, but we do not believe the public will so look at it. If honorableness goes for anything, such a man as Senator Frink must stand out like a sky-kissing mountain beside a miserable dunghill, when placed beside such men. If it is not right to be good, then everybody should be bad. SEATTLE'S TELEPHONE CO A great many of the business men of the city have ordered their telephones taken out, owing to the fact that the Sunset Telephone Company did not see fit to entertain a proposition made to the effect that the girls who were compelled to leave the service of the company on account of poor pay and long hours be treated with from a business standpoint. To say that President Sabin was uncouth and even rude to the business men of Seattle is mildly putting it, and this is what is prompting the removal of so many phones. If all of the phones are taken out that have been and will be ordered out during the coming week it means nothing more or less than that the Sunset Telephone Company will find Seattle an expensive place to operate a telephone system. The company says it cannot afford to treat with the striking girls in this city, for, if it did it would meet the same trouble n every other city in its system. If all the A Good Man Gone Wrong We are constrained to think this of a man who will persist in the use of a poor light, to the everlasting detriment of his sight, which can never be restored, when he can get the well-known WELSBACH light for office, store or residence, thereby getting absolutely the finest light known, and for the least expense.

It looks as though the company would at least give some ear to the firms from which it is drawing monthly a large revenue and make some pretense of respecting their feelings in the matter. Mr. Sabin should not overlook the fact that the men who pay the freight should at some stage of the game be consulted on the amount they pay, and especially when the freight is being badly handled. It's a mistake on the part of the lazer ure organizations in putting their noses in, and the "hello girls" had better handle the proffered aid of the labor unions rather gingerly or they will lose more than they will gain. We are of the opinion that the men who spend two and often three-tails of their entire earnings in vile saloons and do business three days in a week and lie drunk the balance of the time, are rather poor advisers for young ladies who are out trying to earn an honest living for themselves to keep from marrying such drunken scapegraces. The young ladies had better stick to the business men for their support and steer aloof of such disturbers. On the other hand the telephone company would do well to mix up a few grains of common reason with their hotheadedness and listen to the mutterings that it must hear in the distance, which, if it continues to gather strength, will result in ruining one of the finest telephone systems in the West. An ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure. Morgan's for a clean shave. Bicycle repairing in all its branches promptly done at Gifford & Grant's, 508 Pike.

Graham & Moore Fine Jewelry at Moderate Prices. 705 Second Avenue, Seattle, Wash. 10 The late primary election in this city put quite a few ambitious politicians on the shelf for some time to come. It sounded the death knell of both Humes and Guic first of all. Next on the list who was put to sleep was State Senator Wilshire, of the First of the Seventh. Once and twice has he been turned down by Hon. E. B. Palmer since the two were in the last legislature and took different views of the United States senatorial question. Seattle people evidently do not approve of the course Senator Wilshire took and do approve of the course pursued by Mr. Palmer, as the latter has been twice indorsed at the polls. Now, either Mr. Palmer or some friend of his will be a candidate two years from now for the place Mr. Wilshire now holds. It looks as if Frank P. Mullen will not be more than a mere bubble on the water from now on in the Fifth ward. He and his friends had proclaimed before the primary contest came off that the Fifth of the Fifth was as solid for Humes as the First ward, but a vote of two to one was registered against Mr. Mullen and his followers last Monday, and now Mr. Mullen says: "I am willing to be good." Dick Kinnear's strength in the Sixth ward has had its back broken and it will be a long time before he will again attempt to have himself proclaimed from the house tops as the Sixth ward boss. It is claimed by persons who know whereof they speak that Mr. Kinnear spent a large sum of money in the ward in his endeavor to continue its political bosship, but it was to no avail, for it went from him. --- Ellis Morrison says he is out of politics for all time to come, that is, so far as he is personally concerned. He, however, proposes to not lose a single opportunity to help his friends and scourge his enemies. Mr. Morrison feels that certain men in the city have not treated him right and there will come a time some day when he will play even with them. Once for superior judge, and now twice for supreme judge, has John E. Humphries been turned down in king county, and it begins to look as if the goal of his legal-political ambition will never be reached. He is anxious to be a supreme judge of this or some other state, and having cast his lot in this, he seems destined to go to his grave without reaching the much-coveted prize. Had Hermon W. Craven kept out of the prosecuting attorney scrap this year, it is very likely that he would have stood a good show of going to congress in 1902, but it looks now as if he has crossed the bridge and then set fire to it, which will shelf him for some time to come, if not forever. Craven is a bright man and his services are always in demand when Republican stump speaking comes around. He, however, so it is reported, always gets ample pay for what he does, and that has done much toward defeating him for office. Dr. Sparling, an old civil war veteran, failed to get a single bit of strength from the ward in which he lives and which gave him a splendid vote two years ago. When he was elected he did not have an enemy in the ward, but at this writing, for some cause or other, he has not a political friend in the whole ward. Discretion is said to be the better part of valor, and, it seems to the Pie-maker, that Dr. Sparling, owing to his age and experience, should have used more of it during his incumbency of the office he now holds. It strikes the Pie-maker that Will E. Humphreys did not do himself any good in the late scrap. Had the Humes people won out as he anticipated, he had slated himself for congress to succeed Cushman two years from now. Wherever he showed up in the primary election he was either turned down or pulled through on such a small vote as should be convincing to him that the voters have had all of him they want. His right hand man, Ed Von Tobel, was turned down in the precinct in which he has lived for the past ten years or more by a vote of two to one. J. Alexander Wakefield, who has been troubled with political aspirations to the extent that he could not sleep well at night, failed to get a delegation from his precinct, which practically shelves him for some time to come. It is quite plainly to be seen that he is a rather poor organizer, for, it is said, there were three votes in his own home that he failed to get out to the polls. While a good many stars set last Monday, it is also true that quite a few rose. Frank Paul, Senator Frink's manager, took quite a step forward, and in future, for some time to come at least, he will be quite a political factor in the politics of this country. Big Bill Morris, who has been before the public on other occasions, owing to the fact that he won out in one of the precincts of the Second ward, the home of Mayor Humes, has loomed up for state honors, and it is barely possible that he will be maned as the next chairman of the state Republican committee. Had J. H. Schively won out in his precinct in the Second ward, as he thought he would do, he would have to some extent regained some of the prestige he once enjoyed in this city from a political standpoint. However, he made a hard fight, and against odds, and is therefore receiving a flood of praise for the noble work he did. The Pipers made no attempt to go to the county conventions from the precincts from which they registered, but the candidates they abetted were turned down so hard that they, too, are convinced that they have quite outlived their day of political usefulness 一 Just why Scott Benjamin saw fit to get into the squabble in the Fourth of the Fifth after he had been given such an overwhelming vote by all factions in the last spring contest no one but himself knows. But he did so, and it has hurt him more than he has any idea. Benjamin, in the opinion of the Pie-maker, will have much trouble in succeeding himself as councilman from the Fifth. The vote in Bert Taylor's precinct, which has heretofore been all one way, was entirely too close for comfort, and it plainly showed that the faction that has been running things up there with a high hand was rapidly going to pieces. His absence as secretary of the convention threw something of a gloom on the whole proceedings. Whether on the right or the wrong side Dr. Samuel Burdett always manages to get to the county convention, it had worked hard to carry his precinct, and was rewarded for his labor by turning his enemies down with a handsome majority. He is married to Tom Humes, and is at present holding an office under the Humes administration. To win a delegateship in a large city, where the political lines are drawn as closely as they were at the late primary elections in this city means something, and for that reason Dr. Samuel Burdett is to be doubly congratulated. Fred H. Lysons, who has been an "offensive partisan" during the entire administration of Tom Humes, will hardly hold his office of secretary of the county central committee another two years for the purpose of aiding Mr. Humes' political aspirations. Sheriff Van De Vanter showed that he was not a policy man last Monday. He said that if he could prevent it there would be no illegal voting, even if such illegal voting was for him, and he quite kept his word. As a result most of the precincts of the city went against Tom Humes. The police force struggled hard to turn the tide in favor of their master and get the "repeaters" to working in the various parts of the city, but they were turned down at every point. If Mr. Levi Ankeny is a wise politician, he will read the hand-writing on the wall and keep his hands severely off King county politics, for the King county voters and taxpayers are now reaping the results of his rule or ruin policy which landed Addison G. Foster in a seat of the United States senate, in which capacity he apparently made the cause of Tacoma paramount to the cause of the state of Washington. If any two men in the city were permanently shelved it seems to the Pie-maker none was more so than Judge R. H. Ballinger and his father of the Fifth of the Fifth. Since they have been in that particular precinct more bitterness has been injected into the primary elections up there than was ever known before. So desperate did they become last Monday to defeat the Frink ticket that they branded it all day long as the "nigger ticket," for no other reason than because there was a man of African blood on that ticket. Who would have thought such coarseness could have come from a man who had served four years a participant in the great civil war? Who would have thought that such would ever come from a man who had served four years as a Republican judge of this state? Who would have thought that such would ever come from two men who pretreed to be as ardently Republican in politics as the Ballinger brace? however, their coarseness did the ticket no harm, for there were men in their own ranks who singled out the colored candidate and voted for him, though they were ardent Humes men and he an equally ardent Frink man, for no other reason than because such a vulgar blackguard attack was being made on him on account of his color. It was a pleasure to note when the ballots had all been counted that the colored man lead the ticket. Perhaps, dear reader, you have never attended a primary election where different factions are straining every nerve to capture a majority of the delegates. Well, if you have not, then you have missed half of your life. Before the day of the voting the satellites swarm about the manager's headquarters like so many bees about a hive. They tell great stories or how they will win hansus down. "I will carry my precinct for not less than two to one, for I have just made a house to house canvass," is what he tells the manager and every one with whom he comes in contact. But the best-lad plans often fail, and he finds that out at the primary polls. As talks this man, so talk all men at all headquarters and in every faction. They leave the respective headquarters at the word "go" on the appointed day with buoyant faces and certain of success. He works all day and buttonholes every voter that comes in way. The voter hears his tale of woe, takes an official ballot, goes to his booth and marks it as suits him best, for for that single moment he has his own way as to now he marks his ballot, and so it goes all day until the polls close. The count is made, and what a gloom or despair comes over his face when he sees he has not votes enough. Both sides were equally confidnet of winning, and yet one side had to lose. The defeated both look and reel blue, does not know whether or not to report at headquarters, but usually musters up courage to go down, for he nears rejoicing among his friends. As he walks in and is questioned as to how he came out, it is truly painful to see the humiliation that creeps over his face as he tells them that he was defeated, but it happened this or that way. While he is explaining how it happened his audience is generally very small, as the politician is not anxious to hear the story of a defeated candidate for a delegateship. The late primary election in this city and county most assuredly demonstrated the fact that Tom Humes is not a vote getter, and his past popularity arose from the fact that he always knew when and how to get into the band wagon. All the states in the Union, now forty-five in number, will choose presidential electors and members of congress on November 6, except Oregon, whose two congressmen were chosen on June 4. All the territories will elect delegates on the same day, and the following state elections will be held in November: Colorado, to choose a successor to the present Democratic governor and Democratic-Populist state officials. Connecticut, to choose a whole state ticket. The present governor is a Republican. Delaware, a governor for four years in place of the Democratic incumbent. There is no lieutenant governor in Delaware. Idaho, a state ticket for four years. Illinois, a state ticket for four years. The present Republican governor of Illinois is not a candidate for re-election. Indiana, a state ticket for four years. Iowa, a secretary of state. Kansas, a governor and a state ticket for two years. Kentucky, through the legal complications arising from the shooting of Gov. Goebel, a governor in place of Beckham, the present governor, and a lieutenant governor in place of Beckham, promoted by Goebel's death to the governorship. The states in which there will be no general election for state officers this year are: Maryland, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey and Virginia. The states which have already held their state elections are: Rhode Island, which chose a governor and state officers in April; Louisiana, which holds its state election in the same month, and Oregon, which voted in June.—Selected THEY DO SAY: That Frank P.
