VOL. VII NO. 17 CHANGE OF HEART Experienced by Right Reverened H. M. Turner. THE BRYAN SALVATION To Be Administered to Northern Colored Voters. BY THE VENERABLE BISHOP As a 'Panacea for Their Aches and Paine Superinduced by Democratic Posters Bishop Henry McNeil Turner, of the African Methodist Episcopal church, has decided to support Bryan in the present presidential contest. Bishop Turner hails from Atlanta Georgia, where he and the other colored voters of that state have been practically disfranchised for the past twenty years or more by the Democratic party, hence he has good and sufficient reasons for wanting to see a Democrat elected president of the United States. The good bishop assigns as a reason for his supporting the Bryan Democratic ticket is that the McKinley administration has not been outspoken enough on the lynching question, and that he is opposed to the holding of the Philippine islands. Bishop Turner admits that all that has ever been done for the Negro in this country in the way of giving him the partial rights of an American citizen has been done by the Republican party, but because he is not in full sympathy with the Republican party on the Philippine question he is going to support the Democratic party, which, as a party and as individuals, has done everything in its power to prevent the Negro from attaining the rights of citizenship on American soil. In proof of this there is a pear state in the Union where the Democrats are in power, but that the Negro voters are either practically or legally disfranchised, while on the other hand, there is not a state in the Union where the Republicans are in power but that the Negro has practically all of the rights of any other American citizen. To illustrate this point more fully, Bishop Turner is a Southern, and is living in the South, where the great majority of the Negro voters and citizens are to be found. Many of the Southern states having more colored folk in them than whites, and yet he proposes to leave those states, where so many Negro voters are located, and come North and West to do Democratic proselytizing among the Negroes in those states where the Negro vote will not average one percent of the entire vote. Does it not seem but natural that the bishop would use a bit of consistency and begin his work at home? Why leave for a foreign land to look for the same thing that is found in profusion right at your very door? No, the very men and the very party that Bishop Turner is coming North and West to aid in electing a president, by the free use of the shotgun and bogus ballots have so completely disfranchised the six million Negroes in the South that the bishop need not worry himself about their vote, for they will not vote at all. Not content with this, the good bishop wants to come North and West and help the Democrats complete their work of disfranchisement, that the Negroes in those states will be in a similar condition of those in the South. And the good bishop by this still declares that he is working for the material good of "my people"? Perhaps he is, but the Negroes in the North and West think he has a darn poor way of showing it. But a few years ago Bishop Turner was African-immigration mated. There was no clivix for the American Negro but to emigrate to Africa, as he saw it. He did succeed in inducing some of them to leave their happy homes and go to his new dorado, but the most of them have returned, and were it not for the respect they have for the laws of this country Bishop Turner's hide would not hold shucks, so displeased are they at him for so deceiving them. The general supposition is that the good bishop was in some way mixed up with a transportation company, and that he was getting a handsome "rake off" from the scheme. He took good pains to never announce his intention of making his home in Africa, though he had charge of the work of his church in that far away land. Owing to the good bishop's eleventh hour conversion to a party that has done nothing but disfranchise, lynch, murder, burn at the stake and enslave the race to which he unfortunately belongs, it impresses the average reader with the idea that the bishop has run up against another good and sufficient financial reason for doing a thing The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN which means ruin to the colored folk throughout this country. It looks as though the good bishop reasons thusly with the Democrats: "You have succeeded in eliminating the colored vote in the South, and you Southerners having no influence in the North, I will go thither, and by false representations succeed in getting the colored folk in the North and West to vote for their own elimination in those states, and thus settle for all time to come the Negro as a voter. Just furnish me with the necessary "wherewith" and trust to me, and, I assure you, I'll quite succeed. I am the senior bishop of the great African Methodist Episcopal church, and I will use my religious cloak to make the undertaking the more certain." Perhaps the reader remembers that it was but a few months ago when the good Bishop Turner denounced the wholesale murder of a number of colored persons in a small town near Atlanta in such vigorous terms that he was forced to not hold one of his annual conferences in that neighborhood, which had already been set, because the Democratic citizens of that locality threatened to lynch him for speaking as he did. It has been but a few months ago when Bishop Turner fell paralyzed at a railroad station in Georgia, and he was refused admission to the sleeping car to Atlanta on account of his color, and was compelled to ride some 300 miles to his home in a "jim crow" car, though he was sick nigh unto death. His Democratic friends are responsible for that also. It has been but a few months ago that the good bishop witnessed the burning of a colored man at the stake in a neighboring Georgia town for a crime that the woman afterward admitted was never committed nor attempted, her husband and the Negro disputed over a debt. All of these outrages were committed by the Democrats and the very men who will be the most instrumental in the election of Bryan if he is ever elected at all, but Bishop Turner counts them for naught. Doubtless the good bishop, who is so anxious to see Bryan elected president and the Bourbon bulldozing Democratic party installed into power in the nation, has forgotten that it was but yesterday, comparatively speaking, that the Democrats disfranchised nearly a hundred thousand colored voters in North Carolina, and yet did not disfranchise a single white voter. Regardless of the fact that the colored folk should have voted on the question, as they were not at the time disfranchised, Bishop Turner doubtless has overlooked the fact that the redshirts, with the liberal use of the shotgun, midnight raids and the lynchers' limb in colored communities so intimidated them that they did not dare to go to the polls, and thus completely driven from the polls, they were compelled to stand about in the bushes in hiding and see every vestige of rights as citizens in their native state swept away from them by the Democrats, those "awfully good men" Bishop Turner wants to put into power. When ever Bishop Turner and his family want to act as American citizens they take good pains to enter a jim crow car and come North, and then denounce the Republican party, which will not stand for jim crow parish, political disfranchisement of any race, class or kind of voters for not kissing his "big toe." The colored folk of Atlanta, Ga., know a thing or two about the good bishop's devotion to the cause of the Negro themselves, if they were only permitted to express an opinion. But a few months ago the city council of Atlanta passed an ordinance separating the white and colored passengers traveling on the street cars of that city. It was a public outrage, and the colored folk rose in their might and declared that if they had to be discriminated against on the street cars they would not ride on them at all, and so instituted a genuine boycott on the cars. What did Bishop Turner do in this case? He pronounced it the height of folly and to show the colored folk that he had no sympathy in the move, proceeded to ride about the city in the ijm crow car end of the street cars. For this it is said he was given a free pass. He was bitterly denounced by the leading colored folk of Atlanta, and even by a number of white citizens, who declared that he had sacrificed every spark of manhood that he had stood for in all previous years in that one instance. That is a fair sample of Bishop Turner's love for the race whose interest he pretends to zealously guard. What a spectacle to see Bishop Turner traveling about the North with a great tent and a brass band to attract great crowds of Negroes to induce them to vote for a party that has publicly declared that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution are humbugs, and that their nullification is one of the chief reasons they hope to get control of the national government. If the good bishop can only succeed in his undertaking he will no doubt be most tenderly cared for the balance of his life by the Democrats, for he will have served the Democratic party as it has never before been served by a Negro.

They do not live but a few hundred miles from B shop Turner, but they hold very different views from him.

Should the United States supreme court uphold the constitutionality of that amendment, thousands of the best Negroes will emigrate to those states where they can undisturbed enjoy their citizen rights and where jim crow cars are unknown.

No disfranchisement on account of race, color or previous condition. Down with the red shirt shotgun policy. 2.

Unless we are badly mistaken, the Democratic ticket will experience considerable trouble in satisfactorily explaining to the voters of this state the Rogers-Browne school book steal. One of the geographies which has If God Almighty has any sympathy with a political ticket, party or anything else in which the editor of the Seattle Daily Liar (Times) is connected, then he is a very different being than most people have put Him down as being. "Let's not only ride on passes, but let's even charge the state for even riding on the passes, my dears; and, inasmuch as this will be the last time we will ever get such an opportunity let's get everything in sight," but Neal Cheetham had a word to say, and thereby hangs a tale. Social Democracy is promised an unexpected boom owing to the disintegration of Populism in this state. Many of the Populist politicians not being able to stomach John R. Rogers and Bourbon Democracy will support W. C. B. Randolph for governor rather than go to Frink, as they should do. We venture the assertion without fear of successful contradiction that there is not a "colored country school teacher" in all the Southland that could not have compiled a more creditable geography than the one the Washington school children are now compelled to use, forced upon them by the Rogers-Browne-Meredith text book fungus. Gomez is charged with being a political disturber in Cuban politics for no other reason than because he is supported by the colored voters of that island. Mark our words, before three years more the shotgun policy and the disfranchiser will be working in full force and effect in Cuba, in order to prevent "nigger dominance", and that, too, in an island where the Negro predominates. "Rogers, Robertson, Ronald and Records for political success in this state" shouts the Seattle Daily Liar. Yes; but who ever heard of rottenness, rebellion, riots and the record the above three candidates bear ever winning in a political campaign, where the shotguns did not play a conspicuous part as in South and North Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiana, where Democracy such as Robertson and Ronald represent, reigns supreme? Robertson and Ronald want to go to congress to help their Southern relatives make an effort to repeal the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, and yet there are colored men in the state who promise to vote for such would-be congressmen. Politically speaking, the devil himself would not be a worse being to vote for than either of these men. To elect that brace of Democrats from this state would be an insult to Lincoln, Grant and freedom. No other paper edited and operated by a Negro is now published in the state of Washington but The Seattle Republican. It has lived for seven years without losing an issue, and it believes it can live another seven. Persons who have subscribed for the Seattle Republican have gotten their money's worth, irrespective of the nationality of the person so subscribing. It has been consistent, honest and fair, opposing those it opposed and supporting those it supported, and herein lies the secret of its success. Now, give us your commercial support. Tacoma's gas company has begun to advertise the Welsbach lamp, and they impress their customers with the idea that it is a new invention. That is just how far behind the times the City of Destiny always is in every respect. Perhaps they will some time in the near future discover that Tacoma is situated near the base of Mount Rainier and on Puget sound. China is still attracting widespread comment throughout Christendom, although Peking has fallen weeks ago. The allied powers seem determined to monkey about China until a general European war will be the result. There is no doubt but that the most of the nations now chastising the Chinese government for the murder and massacre of the missionaries have an eye single to a large slice of Chinese territory as a reward for those murders, and, if they do not get it, something is going to happen. Washington state had one favored son two years ago that must now be contemplating going East to visit with his folks, and it was none other than Hon. G. L. La Follet, of Whitman county, a member of the last state legislature, and all because his brother, Hon. Robert M. La Follet, has been nominated for the governorship of Wisconsin by the Republicans and stands a most excellent show of being elected. In fact his nomination is practically equal to an election. However, "Our George" has already tired of the Evergreen state and has gone to California with a view of taking up his permanent residence there. Soon the winter rains will have soin and not a single tap as yet has been hit on either First or Seventh avenues toward repairing them. Both thoroughfares are principal ones to the general traffic of the city, and if they are permitted to go unrepaired during the coming winter it will be next to criminal. No street or avenue in the city is so generally used as Seventh, and the whole city should see to it that it be paved from Pike to Madison, that heavily loaded teams could the more easily reach the residence portion of the city. The late show, which paid into the treasury the gigantic sum of $150 for the privilege of taking out $40,000 from the citizens, actually did Seventh avenue more than $150 worth of damage. Begin to repair those streets. Seattle authorities, or be adopted does not even know on which side of the Sound Mount Rainier is situated. you will be dereelit in your duty. Lynching Negroes go steadily on down in Georgia and other Southern states, despite the fact that Bishop Turner, who but a few years ago barely escaped himself being lynched because he dared to denounce lynching, has publicly announced that he would support William Jennings-Bryan, the presidential candidate, who will get the unanimous support of every Southern state, as well as the unanimous support of every Southern red-handed lyncher in the United States, let alone the South. Like all other American citizens, William Jennings Bryan, the Democratic presidential nominee, has enjoyed as well as been financially benefited by the McKinley prosperity car, as may be seen from the assessment rolls since 1893. The year President Cleveland was defeated for re-election Mr. Bryan, according to the county assessor's report was worth just $270, but since that time he has steadily increased in the wealth of the world until the year McKinley asks for re-election he is worth twenty times that much. But we quote from the assessor's report to show how this calamity howler, that was so sure no good could come out of the election of McKinley, has really been benefited by the change from a Democratic to a Republican administration: Assessed Valuation 1893 ..... $ 280 1894 ..... 200 1895 ..... 340 1896 (last year of Democracy) 270 1897 ..... 1,485 1898 ..... 2,980 1899 ..... 2,980 1900 ..... 4,550 The Seattle Bee, heretofore owned and operated exclusively by D. W. Griffin, and which has been such an uncertain political quantity, is now a full-fledged Democratic paper. In its last issue the name of G. S. Bailey appeared as business manager, but Mr. Griffin still retains the controlling interest in the paper. Since the Bee has been in existence it has been for and against every prominent Republican in the county, and it has drunk freely at the wells of the two leading political parties of this county. Two years ago Mr. Griffin called his paper the Western Sun, and then it was a fusion organ. He, however, before the campaign was over, made a deal with Van De Vanter, Wooding and Dr. Smith to deliver the Franklin vote, which got him considerably muddled up in the fusion ranks. Soon he switched to the Republicans and since that time he has swung from first one faction of the party to the other. His present partner, G. S. Bailey, is well known in this community, and a great many of the prominent Republicans with whom he has previously done political work suspect the cause of his great change of heart on this occasion. The treasury bureau of statistics furnishes some facts about the coal exports of the United States which are of peculiar interest at the present time. The exports last year reached a value of $10,000,000; this year they are likely to reach a value of $20,000,000. The exports for last July were 50 per cent, in excess of those for the same month in 1899. In the seven months ending with July, 1898, the exports of coal from the United States were2,375,451 tons; the same months of 1899 they were 3,006,082 tons, and in the corresponding months of 1900 the exportation of coal from the United States has quadrupled, but the principal growth has been in the years 1898, 1899 and 1900. The exports of coal to Europe, which in the seven months of 1898 amounted to only 4,810 tons, were in the corresponding months of 1900 278,572 tons. Of this 187 tons went to the United Kingdom, 4,028 tons to Germany, 77,407 tons to France, and 196,950 tons to other European countries. Unless all signs fail, the exports to Europe this year will exceed the most sanguine expectations of American operators. So tremendous has been the growth of our export coal trade of late that the subject is now attracting the attention not only of statisticians, but of the business interests of the country. It is because of the enormous gains made that leading citizens are doing their utmost at present to arbitrate between the operators and the miners. The danger of an interruption in the traffic due to a great strike is too imminent and too great to be overlooked. It would mean the discouragement of an industry which within a short time must inevitably open up thousands of square miles of coal lands throughout the West that are now lying idle and add immensely to the wage-paying and wage-carrying capacity of the country. 902 SECOND AVENUE Cor.

Oh, that can all be fully accounted for. It lies in the fact that the men who were arguing politics from a Bryan standpoint four years ago have on an average of 16 to 1 found good jobs at paying salaries under the McKinley administration, and they do not have time to discuss politics; and even if they should take time, they are perfectly willing to let well enough alone. That spirit of contentment is to be found not only in Chehalis county, but in every other county in this state, yea, every other county in the United States, not even excepting the South. *** It is reported that owing to the exceeding friendliness that the Republican party of this county has shown to certain "Smiths" that they intend to go to work to get the entire "Smith family" to vote the Republican ticket, and thereby give it the largest majority that any ticket in this county ever before received. There is no doubt but that the "Smith family" can do that very thing if it will, and it seems that it has made up its mind to will it. So far as the Pie-maker is aware there will not be many of the Smiths in King county that will vote against the Republican nominees. The King county ticket has three Smiths as nominees on it for one thing or the other, and the Smiths highly appreciate that very fact.. *** It's a fatal mistake for the Exponent, a spasmodic little weekly now being published in Tacoma, having failed to make it go in Seattle, to try to induce the colored folk of this state to vote the Democratic ticket, their most damnable as well as deadly enemy. Personally speaking, the gentleman editing that spasmodic sheet is a most excellent man, but his political teachings are very very bad. Every colored voter in the South who has not been actually killed for trying to vote has been disfranchised, so that he cannot vote, and this has been done by the Democratic party. The only reason the same is not done in the North is because the Democrats are too few in numbers. Wherever Democracy prevails, then you can rest assured that it is death for the black man to make a pretense of being other than a slave or a menial. Whenever you see a colord man that will shit his eyes and close his ears to all those facts and advocate Negroes supporting Democratic nominees, he is doing so for the sake of money at the expense of his race. "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is the cardinal principle of American civilization, and yet the black men of this country are denied that very thing in every state south of Mason and Dixon's line. Are you going to vote for your deadly enemies? *** Taking their cue from the Liar (Times) of this city, a great many of the opposition papers of this state are howling Wilson-McGraw at the Republican ticket in answer to cold, hard facts shot at them by the Republican campaign orators. It is said that an American citizen never learns of the fact that either he or his great grandfather or some other member of his family was guilty of the most heinous crimes until he is nominated for office. It's a sad commentary on the "superior race," if it be true, that those selected as its standard-bearers on opposition tickets are always men of the most questionable character. Without an excuse, save cussedness, pure and simple. The Times has most shamefully abused Senator Frink since he has been nominated for office, and this has been taken up by the country weeks without knowing one thing as to the truthfulness of what they are talking about, but they think it proper to print infamous lies for political effect. *** "I am of the opinion," said Hon. J. W. Arrasmith, secretary of the state Republican central committee, that the Republican ticket this year will be just as strong in Eastern Washington as it was two years ago. In fact, Eastern Washington will give an increased Republican majority. I do not believe that the Republicans will lose any of the larger counties and will carry quite a few of the smaller ones, heretofore DemPop strongholds. I understand Western Washington is in splendid condition, and that being true there is no doubt of an overwhelming Republican victory next November." *** It has been learned that quite a few officeseekers were at Enumclaw last Saturday to take in the local Harvest Home fair that was being held in that city, at which many of the farmers were present. The candidates took advantage of the large gathering and showed up there, hoping to make votes for themselves. The old grangers had, however, met for a good time, and did not want to hear any partisan politics, and so they decided to let each of the candidates speak five minutes on any subject they liked, just so it was not on politics. In other words, if you want to yourself and try your hand at making votes on your shape. you can do so. Fortunately for the Republican county ticket, their best-looking candidates were in attendance and unfortunately for the Democrats, their worst-looking candidates were on hand, so it is currently reported that the Republicans captivated the grangers and their fairer sex and that Enumclaw will not give a single Democratic candidate a majority of votes at the next election. *** Whose friend are you? If ours, you will send The Seattle Republic a part of your advertisement. It publishes legal notices very cheap, and if you do not believe it, call up Main 305 and hear for yourself. *** Gov. Rogers wanted the state to pay the expenses of his wife and daughter to visit about over the state, and that, too, despite the fact that he was elected on an economic platform. He and his friends are boasting of the fact that the Rogers administration saved the state many thousands of dollars. For the sake of argument, and for the sake of argument alone, grant that it has. Now, the question is, did Gov. Rogers do that saving, or did Neal Cheetham do it? From the correspondence that has passed between the governor and the state treasurer, it would appear that Mr. Cheetham is the man. If Gov. Rogers ever saved the state a single cent of money, he reclaimed it all for Pullman car service for himself and family to travel from one part of the state to the other or to pay for his private telegrams to his henchmen concerning his own nomination. * * * F. C. Robertson's brother, of Louisiana, has spent his life defending the criminal element of Louisiana 'or killing innocent Negroes because those Negroes made an effort to use the elective franchise. For that his fellow criminals elected him to a seat in congress. His brother F. C. determined to cast his lot in the far West, so he came to Washington, and has spent the last eighteen months of his time defending criminals of the worst type, the dynamiters of the Coeur d'Alenes, and for that his Democratic associates have honored him with a nomination for congress. It would thus seem that the more pernicious a Southern man's associates are the more he is honored by his fellow partisans. It should not be forgotten what a desperate race a certain Democrat made in this city for the congressional nomination, the one that Ronald got, simply because he had won hundreds and thousands of dollars at the poker table and was able to pay big money to the Democratic central committee if he were nominated. *** Andrew F. Burleigh, one of Seattle's erstwhile Republican leaders opened the Republican campaign at Spokane recently, and it is reported that the smooth oratorical tongue of Andrew had not forgotten its cunning, regardless of the fact that it has not been heard on the rostrum for some four years. No man in the Northwest can make a more eloquent as well as logical speech than Mr. Burleigh, and the state central committee would do well to get Mr. Burleigh to come this way once more for a season. Seattle is always ready to listen with open mouth to Andrew F. Burleigh's political talks and he should not be overlooked. * * * Perhaps no administration in the history of Washington, either as a territory or a state, is guilty of as many little public steals as the John R. Rogers' administration. Every petty little bill that the governor and his especial henchmen have made for their own private benefit has been tried to be saddled on to the state treasurer for payment and reimbursement. Talk about your reform, but this is reform with a vengeance, and Gov. Rogers will find that out before he has finished explaining his peculiar reforms in the present campaign. *** "If I am ever elected governor of this state I do not intend to use the veto power, but allow theodium eminating from the acts of any legislature to rest upon them and the party they represent," so said Mr. John R. Rogers at Ellensburg, when he was a candidate for the nomination of governor. In spite of that assertion, which Mr. Rogers cannot deny that he said in addressing the Free Silver Republican convention, he has used the veto power more than any other man that was ever governor of the territory or state of Washington. He has vetoed no legislation to remain on the statute-books of this state put there by a two-third majority of the legislature unless such legislation met his personal approval. No man either in this or any other state of this Union ever betrayed every promise and pledge he made when a candidate so fully and completely as has John R. Rogers, and yet in the face of all that George Turner managed, with the powerful influence of filthy lucre used on the convention floor, so charged by members of the convention, of corrupting a sufficient number of delegates to renominate the man. Was there ever a more burning shame perpetrated on an intelligent people than the renomination of John R. Rogers and School Superintendent Browne? You don't know what is the very best possible deal to be made on a piano until you have seen it. A good man is an excellent showing of standard manners and an excellent trustworthy price. Credit is given on extraordinary prices. SHERMAN, CLAY & CO 711 SECOND AVE. It is very apparent, even at this early date, that J. T. Ronald will be defeated by a J. M. larger vote than was either Jones (Wheat Chart) or Lewis two years ago. And why not? Would it not be a burning shame for the Republicans to elect a man like Ronald to congress? It will be remembered that the Republicans did elect Ronald to office once on a time, and the Pie-maker seems to remember that he did not make a very brilliant record while he was in office unless it was a record of borrowing the public funds and chase about the country on that borrowed money, which same money caused one of his fellow officeholders to serve a term in the state penitentiary. The concensus of opinion concerning the loans made by that official is to the effect that there were others beside Krug that should have done terms in the state prison. I DON'T LIKE McKINLEY TIMES. Can't fool my wife now; she knows I can get work. I used to run my legs off to get work. Now I run them off to get away from work. No Coxey army. I want Bryan Times, Free Silver, Free Soup, Free lodring and no work DO LIKE McKINLEY TIMES. Four years ago my wife and little children were hungry for days and weeks at a time. I walked the streets of Seattle offering a pair of stout arms and willing hands, but from day to day I was turned away with the same answer. "Nothing to do." I feel like calling the working-man who thinks of voting for Bryan a fool. There are men in Seattle today who will vote for Bryan and a "change," who during the last awful four years of famine—no milder word can or should be used—offered to work for their board. What did such a condition mean to the man who had a wife and little children depending on him for bread. It makes precious little difference to the laboring man who is president, if that president is with the party that inspires confidence and makes good times. One said to me, "Times are good in Seattle because of the Alaska gold." If this were true and other parts of the country were in a "Democratic condition," thousands upon thousands of laborers and mechanics and laborers of all classes would flock to Seattle from all over the country, and employers would not, as they are today, be advertising daily for labor of all kinds. The man who casts his vote for a change ought to ask himself the question. What will a change do for me? "McKINLEY MAN." The Seattle Bee, for reasons best known to the editor, but which are not set forth in its columns, is now supporting the Democratic ticket. *** Among other things found in the last issue of that paper we see that it accuses Boyd J. Tallman, candidate for judge of the superior court, with repudiating a promise he is said to have made in reference to the appointment of a colored man for bailiff. The Bee states that Mr. Tallman promised "that he would do anything any other candidate would do," as to the appointment of a colored man for bailiff, and that he now says he never made such a promise. The Bee does not, however, state that he has refused to appoint a Negro as bailiff in his court. *** We do not know what promises, if any, Mr. Tallman has made in reference to the appointment of bailiffs, but we do know that he will fullfill any and all promises that he has made, as he is an honorable and upright man. But what do our people expect from the Democrats should they be elected? Will either Judge Jacobs, Judge Benson or Judge Strudwick, if elected, appoint a Negro as a bailiff? Judge Strudwick is a Southerner, having lived in North Carolina all his life before coming to Seattle. That state is the last one of Southern states to disfranchise the Negro by constitutional amendment. The colored people expect anything from him? Not one of the present judges, who are all fusionists, ever appointed a Negro to any office. Neither will they in the future. *** When the people of Franklin held their celebration last August did either of the Democratic candidates for judge contribute anything toward defraying the expenses of that celebration? Mr. Tallman generously contributed in a liberal manner, which is well known to D. W. Griffin, editor of the Bee, as he was with Mr. Mathew Brown, Mr. Ed Brown and Mr. Al Poenix when Judge Tallman paid his contribution. From a knowledge gained by an acquaintance with Boyd J. Tallman covering nine years we know the Negro has no better or truer friend in King county than he. Superintendent Meredith, who is closely identified with the present school text book outrage in this state has been for the past four years superintendent of the public schools of King county, drawing a salary of about $200 per month. Now, let's see if Prof. Meredith has earned his salary from King county by giving value received in the way of time and labor for the salary he and his assistant have drawn down from the county. Since he has been school superintendent he has completed a full college course at the state university, and graduated therefrom last year. Instead of visiting the county schools during the week he has spent the days of each week himself going to school. Instead of being in his office, as the law requires, when he was not visiting the schools in the county, he was attending the state university as a student, and during each day of the week the office was locked up, and persons journeying from distant parts of the county to see either the superintendent or his deputy on school matters would have to journey back home without seeing either, as Meredith was going to school and his assistant teaching school. Now, in all seriousness, do you think Prof. Meredith earned the school and his assistant teaching school. Now, Mr. Meredith had an assistant superintendent and it was his duty to be in the office in the absence of the in office, but the absence, of the law requires him to be, he was holding a position as teacher in the High School of this city. Now, did this assistant refuse to draw his salary for not being in the office over a few hours each week? Oh, no; not much! He not only drew his $75 per month for that little work, but he likewise drew a big salary as teacher in the High School. That assistant was none other than M. M. Moss, the Democratic candidate for superintendent of schools in this county at the present time. Now, to your mind, dear readers, what does this all mean? It simply means that Moss is to be elected and will appoint Meredith his assistant, and in case Browne is re-elected state superintendent, Meredith is to remain on the state board of education and the two are to flourish with the West-Land Publishing Co. and he and Moss to divide the emoluments of office between them. Get the vote on the adoption of the text books of this state and see if Prof. Meredith did not do some of the most peculiar voting that you ever saw a man do who did not have a financial reason for voting as he did. He has locked up his office since he has been school superintendent and has been "sawing wood" in his own private interest ever since but has never failed to draw his salary at the proper time.

Phone Main 592 Our work is the BEST ADVERTISEMENT we have We print THE REPUBLICAN AND OTHERS \* \* \* *** That's not all that Prof. Meredith has done which is detrimental to the public school system of this county (Don't lose sight of the fact that the election of M. M. Moss, who has no qualifications whatever for holding such a position, is but re-electing Meredith to the superintendency of the public schools), because Seattle would not use a lot of text books as rotten and as vile as anything could be, and yet be called school books, all of which are chock full of errors and blunders of the worst kind; in short, a complete murder of Mother English, this man Meredith, who is now endeavoring to have his man Elected superintendent of the public schools, has knocked the city of Seattle out of nearly $30,000 from the state school appropriation. Prof. Meredith is aware of the fact that those text books are rotten, why then he so anxious that the children of Seattle use them in spite of their incorrectness? Simply because it means something for Moss, and the two are inseparable. Again, why is Prof. Meredith so solicitous about Moss being elected? Is it because Moss has had so much experience as a school teacher and that he would make an excellent school superintendent? Not much, for Mr. Moss has never been principal of even a country school. Mr. Moss has never had any experience at school teaching at all except three years as a subordinate teacher, and very subordinate at that, in the High School of this city. Yes, there is a reason for all this, in the opinion of the Piemaker, and it lies in the fact that Meredith has tickled Moss' back and now Moss is to tickle Meredith's back, and the combine to push the text book steal of this state to complete success by driving Seattle into using the nefarious books or deprive her of some $30,000 appropriations of the state funds. Perhaps the voters of King county will support a man of the above stripe for superintendent of public schools, but the Pie-maker very seriously doubts it.

The repertoire for the Neil Company at the Seattle theater during the eight nights' engagement is as follows: Sunday evening, September 30th, Nat Godwin's best comedy success, "An American Citizen."

Saturday evening, "Niobe." The Neil Company is drawing larger houses at present than any other company playing in the West, simply because it has the best line of high-class plays. It's Sunday evening opening promises to be witnessed by a great outpouring of Seattle's theater-goers, which will be followed with every evening's performance during the entire week. Mr. A. Hall, having successfully passed the civil service examination for a position in the Seattle postoffice, has been put to work. This is the second young colored man that has been put on duty in the Seattle postoffice this year. AHINDOO HOODOO. This clever comedy and New York success will be seen at the Third Avenue theater on next Sunday evening. The most difficult of presentation of all dramatic forms is the comedy. The author of a drama may first excite your interest and sympathy with a tender love scene, a few moments later he may chill your blood with horror as the beautiful girl, in whom you are interested, walks across a yawning chasm on a narrow plank that the villian has so weakened that you know it will break when she reaches the middle of it; a few moments later the comedian appears, and forthwith you are convulsed with laughter; then the villain forecloses the mortgage, and as the old man and his lovely daughter go slowly forth into the blinding snowstorm alone in all the world, an unbidden tear trickles softly down. "Tis not so with the comedy. The author must make you laugh during the first act; you must howl with undeleated glee during the second act, and the third act must be one long continued scream of laughter. It is for this reason that even the best of comedies, presented by even mediocre players, is pronounced dull and uninteresting by the public. That Whiting & Willis, the managers of "A Hindoo Hoodoo," fully realize the force of the goose is readily seen by a glance at the personnel of their organization. Cline's Piano House.
