NORTHWEST VOL. VII NO. 23 EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO Prof, Council Compares the Schooling of Colored Children With That of (From an address by W. H. Council The Southern States have raised out of their poverty for the children since 1870 the sum of $515,900,000. More than $100,000,000 of this a mount has gone to the Negro child of the South whose foreparent came up out of slavery. Every stat constitution and all of their stat- tory laws make some provision for the children. They may not be very wise, nor munificent, but they were the best that the wisdom and wealth of the times juftified. The stat have 70,000 school houses for the children; 20,000 of them are for Negro children. Whether these school houses be stately mansions or log cabins, the Negro in them, in thirty-five years, with his 35,000 teachers, $100,000,000 and the good will of the South, has wiped out 42 per cent of his illiteracy and increased his wealth by one billion dollars Every church in the South has favored the cause of the children. Every minister has stood for some kind of education for the children. I cannot now say what has been given by all the churches of the South for the white children, but Southern charity has given, at the lowest estimate, $50,000,000 for Negro children. The Northern white churches have given: Total ..... $38,830,000 Christian men and women of the North do you not admire the work which has been done for the children of the South? The donations to benevolent purposes since 1893 amount to over $200,000,000. The children of the South have received not quite $3,000,000 of these benefactions. Why charity has thus passed by the children of the South I do not know. Their cries and appeals are piteous and should pierce every soul. They cry for more normal and trade schools, colleges and universities, to send them more and better teachers They are in the dark. They thirst They famish. Eighty per cent of the Negro part live far away in the backwalls. They have few towns only half a dozen cities—a wide and thinly-spread population. Some day, I trust their cries and struggles will bring to them more sympathy, more help. They do not envy the children of the North, but ask them to remember the children of the South There are about 6,000,000 white children and 3,000,000 Negro chil The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Thousands of persons pass our Desk room at this office for rent door every day, because it is near Steam room and ground floor dren in the South. About 4,000,000 white children 5 to 18 years of age and about 1,500,000 Negro children 5 to 18 years of age, go to school. The white children enroll 69 per cent of the enrollment attend daily. The Negro children enroll 53 per cent of their school population and 65.30 per cent of the enrollment attend daily. The Negro children enroll 53 per cent of their school population, and about 60 per cent attend school daily. The children of Alabama enroll about 19 per cent of their population, while the children of Iowa enroll 26 per cent of their population. The Negro children of the South have in higher institution 1,800 professors, 45,000 pupil-2,000 of them at college; 1,500 is classical branches, 1,500 in scientific studies, 1,500 in other professional and business courses, thousands in trade schools and 300,000 volumes i libraries. Could a better result obtained from such meager facilities anywhere else in thirty years. The Negro melodies are the real inspiration of the American composers. The character and sources of American music have long been a favorite topic of discussion among foreign composers and musicians. After profound study of the subject and deep research into the mass of wild and somewhat monotonous Indian songs, or rather chants, I have come to the conclusion that the cranle of American music lay below Mason and Dixon's line, and that it is the Negro to whom we owe the merits of melodies comprising our national music. And while the Negro melody, simple and inordinate, has the merits of originality, the so-called "high" music inudged in by our composers presents nothing but the same melody treated in a more or less—and more often less—musicianly way. A popular melody, however humble, always illustrates the national spirit of its people, whether it be gav or melancholy. The Roumanian peasant in the vast plains of Jasssy sings a melody which is entirely distinct from the war song of the Cossack on the Dnieper. And the war song of the Cossack is different from the plaintive and melancholy chant of the Volga moujik. Thus not only each nation, but even each great section, has its melody, the character of which depends upon geographical divisions conditions of life, environment and political well being. The Negro melody has undergone many metamorphoses; and from the sad "Pickaninnies" song of the old slavery days it has developed into the gay, careless, devil-may-take-nort of a jig. As the slave became a freeman, his heart, which heretofore had found its utterance in melancholy and plaintive song, turned to the gayer side of life, and the simple four-fourths measure gradually required the syncopated meter which breathes joy and love of life. It is the Negro who is the innovator in this country in "syncopated" meter. You can take any classical composition—for instance, the wedding march of Mendelssohn—and adapt it to the "syncopated" measure, and the innovation will have a beautiful effect. I cannot say that our composers in their treatment of these melodies have in any way improved them. In their primitive state they had, as I said before, the merit of originality a merit which they lost on account of unskilled treatment. If asked today whether these "rag time" songs actually represented American music, I would answer: "No; they are but the mutilated forms of it; for the genuine pop music you must go back to the old Negro melodies. We have abandoned our sources merely to go back to them again."—From Giacomo Minkowsky. PERSONAL Mr. Samuel A.

SOUTHERN BLACKS To Teach Savage Negroes - May Solve Race Problem - Work of Tuskegee Industrial School. (New York World, Oct. 27.) Booker T. Washington, called the "Black Moses," is here to fit out an expedition of Negro students for South Africa. These Negroes will be sent in compliance with the request of the German government, which hopes, by the importation of American colored men, to civilize the subjects of Emperor William on the west coast of Africa and aid them in industrial development. It is the most novel race experiment of the decade, and may culminate in a general exodus of the Southern Negroes to the emperor's tropical territory, for the German government has offered homes to all intelligent Negroes. The movement is the direct result of the exhibit of the Tuskegee Normal Institute at the Paris exposition. This is a college in Alabama, over which Booker T. Washington presides. It has accomplished more towards training Gregoes in industrial lines than any other agency at work in the Southern states. In the daytime students are taught to operate machinery. They are made to cultivate cotton and corn on scientific principles. At night they study and attend lectures. They are trained in English and the classes. There is no manufactured article which the black students of Tuskegee cannot make. They sell their products all over the South. They make carpets and chairs and turn the cotton which they cultivate into cloth. These articles were exhibited at Paris during the exposition. Representatives of Emperor William were passing through the United States building. They were struck with the display from Tuskegee school. They were amazed when informed that this had been done by American Negroes, just a few years ago slaves. They communicated with Emperor William. It was suggested that these Negroes be imported and sent to the possessions of Germany on the South African coast. This met the approval of the emperor. "Send for them at once," he is reported as saying. "They can teach my subjects to do things well and to become civilized." Booker T. Washington received a letter informing him that the German government would bear the expenses of any expedition fitted out. Young Negroes who knew how to conduct farms were wanted. It was stipulated that these Negroes should be intelligent enough to go among the natives and teach them how to work. Especially was it desired that these natives should be taught how to raise cotton. As a result of the correspondence it was decided to send ten young Negroes to Germany. There was a wild scramble among the students to go. The ten who had the highest standing were selected. They will reach New York the latter part of the week. Booker T. Washington spent yesterday purchasing supplies for the expedition. It will be elaborately fitted out with American agricultural implements. W. H. Baldwin, Jr., president of the Long Island railway, is a director in the Alabama Institute. He is a great student of the race question, and a philanthropist in the "Black Belt" of Alabama. Most of the Northern funds for the Tuskegee college are collected by him. He will assist in fitting out the expedition. Mr. Baldwin said last night: "This movement to South Africa may be general. It may be that thousands of the colored people will move to Germany's possessions. It has often been suggested that the solution of the race question was for the colored man to return to his native land."

Mrs. Jennie Clark has opened a first-class restaurant and dining hall and is doing a most excellent business. She went down to Nome last spring, but returned by the next boat and is now doing a lucrative business in Dawson City. Mrs. Minnie Jones is visiting Dawson City from the creeks at present. She and her brother, Joe Braxton, have done exceedingly well with their claim and have taken on $8,800 this season. They have another claim that they will go to work on very soon and from which they expect even greater results. Mrs Jones has bought her a mil cow and a horse and peddles milk and butter to those living on the creek-near by. Messrs. E. J. Terrell, Thomas Pierce and George Smith are still running the Kentucky kitchen and are making a barrel of money. Mr. Frederick Lawrence is seriously ill at his home. THE CLOVER LEAF BALL The ball to be given by the Clover Leaf Club Thanksgiving evening promises to be a very grand affair. The committee has issued a number of invitations, and each person is expected to present the same at the door before he or she will be admitted. No pains will be spared by the committee to make everything exceedingly agreeable and entertaining. Supper will be served at 12 o'clock and an elaborate menu will be spread. It will be a full dress ball in every particular. Wagner's orchestra has been employed to furnish music for the occasion, and a "caller" has likewise been employed. Visitors to the city will be given a most cordial welcome, and everything possible will be done to give them a most enjoyable evening. It is to be at Ranke's hall, corner Fifth and Pike, in one of the most commodoious dancing halls in the city. There is no doubt but that if you would say a good word for this paper where you trade at regularly it would be the means of it getting an advertisement from such place or concern The success of one Negro but open the way for others, and all friends of the Negro should help deserving ones along in their business ventures Should Meredith, Wappenstein c Kennedy be appointed chief of the police, former grafting method would pale into complete insignificance to what it would be under them. If Reed has made a fortune out of it, either of these men would make a fortune and four times over out of the office. NOVEMBER BANK CLEAR- ANCES. 1899. 1900.

When full grown it measures 17 feet from tip to tip of wing and weighs forty pounds. It often soars to the height of 23,000 feet in mid-air, where it is able to suspend itself as though it was hanging on a wire. According to a late financier's reports, England owes a public debt of $3,300,000,000; France $6,250,000,000; Germany, $2,400,000,000; Russia, $4,760,000,000, while Austria-Hungary and Italy each owe eight times as much as the present national debt of China. According to Frank G. Carpenter, the imperial customs of China are 22,000,000; land tax, 20,000,000 salt tax, 10,000,000; liken, 15,000,000; native customs, 3,000,000 grain tribute, 3,000,000; miscellaneous sources, 4,000,000, making a grand total of 77,000,000 teals and annually. On account of the Indian service, our government from March 14th, 1789, to July 30th, 1900, has expended $568,358,217. The expenditures for the fiscal year ending last July amounted to $10,175,107, of which amount $3,330,000 was devoted to Indian education. The Indian population of the United States at present is 267,900, of which 45,270 receive daily rations. Nearly two-fifths of the number receiving rations belong to the great Sioux nation. Indian Agent Schoenfelt, located in what is known as Indian Territory, makes the following report of the five tribes of that community: The total population estimated at 84,750, comprises 20,250 Choctaw and freedmen, 10,500 Chickasaw and freedmen, 16,000 Creeks and freedmen, 35,000 Cherokee and freedmen and 3,000 Seminoles. Their lands comprise a total of 19,776,286 acres. Ten centuries hence, says President S. H. Pritchet, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the population of the United States will be 40,000,000,000 human beings averaging 11,000 to each square mile. Over in Pennsylvania on Hallow-e'en night a man's life was saved by a Sunday school paper. While a number of boys were tantalizing a certain home, a woman came out with a revolver and fired, with a view of scaring the boys away, but her revolver was elevated too high, and a man passing by was struck on the hip by the bullet. Previously he had folded a Sunday school paper very closely together and put it in his hip pocket, and the ball strike it, spent its force e'er it reached a vital spot. He was not even wounded.

There is a prejudice among many of the citizens against being annexed to the United States. Recently the colonial council passed a resolution against the sale of the island to the United States or any other country. The resolution was passed by a majority of 7 in the council; though it is claimed that it was the work of skuldugery, and not a fair test vote on the question. Army reports declare that in each cavalry charge the list of casualties among horses is greater by far than among men. At Talavera 290 horses were killed, while only 240 men were killed. At the famous charge of the Light Brigade at Bala-kava 360 horses were killed and only 240 men. London, the largest city in the world, is reported by florists to spend $25,000 daily for cut flowers. A Glasgow man has planted fir trees in his garden so that one of them will shade a portion of the house at every hour of the sunlight, which he terms his "tree club." For example, at 9 o'clock in the morning the 9 o'clock tree shades the dining room, while as the sunlight changes the 10 o'clock tree shades the room adjoining, and so on throughout the entire day. During the late election in England thousands of circulars were spread among the voters, showing that under the Salisbury administration there had been 33,836 more marriages than during the previous four years under the Liberal party. This circular is reported to have saved the Salisbury administration from defeat. In Buenos Ayres vegetables are usually sold in piles, so that you have to measure the quantity as well as the quality by the eye, and butchers sell their meat by the chunk rather than by the weight.

The school board of El Paso, Tex. has compelled its female teachers in the schools of the city to wear short dresses for sanitary reasons. Since the assassination of King Humbert of Italy 22,000 anarchists have been arrested in that country, and scores of people have been arrested and fined for speaking apologetically of Bresci. During October one tribunal tried 132 persons who had made treasonable utterances, and imposed sentences aggregating 144 years of imprisonment, as well as fines to the total of 163,000 frances. So superstitious are the sailors on board a ship that when a dead body is to be sent across the waters on a ship, it is recorded on the invoice as "statuary," or a "natural history specimen," to evade the superstitious fears of the crew, who declare that any ship that will knowingly carry a dead body will go to the bottom before it reaches its destination.

There is always much room for reorganizing a party that has always been wrong on all political questions. Talk about a party being conceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity, but the Democratic party is the very quintessence of such a condition! Jefferson and Jackson may have been true and loyal citizens to the best interests of this country, but followers of the political principles laid down by them have certainly digressed very widely from their principles. Since the days of Jackson the Democratic party has apparently taken the wrong side, as said above, of every public question. They have opposed every public measure and every public character in this country who has made his country's interests a public study and succeeded. The Democratic party reached its climax of opposition to its country's best interests when it brought on the great civil war and drenched the United States in blood at an expenditure of millions of dollars of the public funds. Since the civil war the Democratic party has opposed the protection of American industries, it has opposed the rights of man, it has opposed an honest currency, it has opposed the expansion of our country and it has opposed every measure that has been advocated by the Republicans, all of which measures, when they were carried out, have proven to be most excellent ones for the whole United States. So long as the Democratic party is made up of such men as come from Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina and Ben Tillman of South Carolina, so long will it be a party of dead issues and fossilized politicians, who live in the past, who advocate dead and forgotten issues and will continue to be made up of fogies and fools, who like the famous Don Quixote, will expend its force in charging windmills for armies and fighting fancies for facts. If the Democratic party wishes to continue a factor in the politics of the United States, it must reorganize and take up the live issues of the day, concede to all men, regardless of their color, creed or their nationality, the absolute right to be men, and to participate in the affairs of this government the same as themselves; concede to all men the right of being their own free moral agents, pry itself out of the ruts of "agin the guverment," whether right or wrong. When it shall have done this, then it will be in a condition to cope with the advanced ideas of civilization, and to do this it is absolutely compelled to reorganize, and reorganize less the greatest nuisance of all, his nibbles Bombast Bryan. The Northwest has recently lost firm friend in the death of Henry Villard, the great New York financier. Mr. Villard died last Monday evening at his country home near the city of New York. He will be remembered as one of the promoters of the Northern Pacific and other gigantic transportation companies, which centered in Tacoma a few years ago, the collapse of which caused untold distress to financiers in this section. As president of the Northern Pacific, Mr. Villard attempted to make Tacoma the greatest city on the Pacific coast, but in this he most signally failed. However, he was not unkind to the city of Seattle, and did many things after he had retired from the road to push Seattle ahead. Montana has lost one of its most conspicuous characters and political manipulators in the death of Marcus Daly, the multi-millionaire, which occurred last Monday evening. For years there has been a political feud existing between Marcus Daly and W. A. Clark, each of whom desired to control the Democratic party of that state. Owing to the fact that Mr. Daly has been confined to his bed for a number of months, Mr. Clark succeeded in carrying the legislature of that state at the late election and he will be elected United States senator next winter. Both Mr. Daly and Mr. Clark are reputed to be the wealthiest men in the West. According to the Daily Liar John L. Wilson has retired from the political arena of this state. Of course Wilson has retired from politics, because there are no politics to be in and will not be for the next two years or more, but when there are any politics in the state, you can rest assured that John L. will be in the thickest of the fight. Instead of the police suppressing the infamous publication known as the Court News, they are to be seen at police headquarters vicing with each other to see who will get the first glance at the "News" when it is delivered at that place on Saturdays. It was but a few days ago that a couple of policemen were seen sitting on the front porch of the police headquarters enjoying the Court News to a greater extent than they would have been the P.-I. or the New York World. Suppress it! They prefer to push it along. The South Bend Journal is the first of the weekly papers in this state to put in its appearance with a holiday number. B'er Hazleton has issued a most excellent number of his paper, and The Republican trusts that he has been as successful financially in the venture as he has in its beautiful appearance. The citizens of that neck of the country should send thousands of copies East. It is common street talk all over Seattle that The Seattle Republican is the very neatest weekly publication that is issued in the Northwest. That it may continue thus, you and each of you, who is benefitted by The Republican, should lend you assistance in the way of advertising patronage to help to push it along. Improvements for Seattle's outlying streets to the tune of $225,000 sounds business like, and shows to what extent the improvements of this city are being carried. No city on the Pacific coast is doing as much public improvement as is Seattle. No wonder it is known as the Queen City of the Northwest. Pope Leo, being something of an imperialist himself, prays that President McKinley will steer aloof of imperialism during the four years that he will again occupy the presidential chair. The Pope knows what a dangerous dose real imperialism is and he therefore warns Americans against it. Ben Grossecup, United States senator in fact of this state, boasts of having defeated the Republican party in this state at the last election simply because he was not consulted as to the nominees it made at the last state convention. Strange to say, Chief Reed seems to have found some place that付 better than the chief of police of this city. What an immortal graffiti game this man Reed must have stumbled on to have the chief of police ship of Seattle for it. It is rather remarkable that Colorado, the Centennial state would as sociate itself in politics with the old rebel states. Much more is expected of Colorado by the loyal citizens of this country than to become an ally of the Southern bulldozers. Aguinaldo and his misguided lowers are all now perfect willing to stop the war in the Philippines, and for no other reason than because that their great chiefain, William Jennings Bryan, has suddenly come to nought. The Democratic party is doing much cabinet making these days for President McKinley. There may be changes in the president's cabinet, but so far as the Democratic party is concerned they know nothing about whom they will be. It was a dirty Irish trick on the part of that footpad to hold up and rob Chief Melter Towne but a few feet from the assay office. Why in the deuce did he not hold up the assay office? Before another four years have passed, the Republicans of this state will sorely regret that they have drunk from a cup so bitter as Grosscup. We feel quite sure that the Democratic party is old enough, ugly enough, as well as mean enough, to organize a new party. Candidate Bryan must now realize that the paramount issue so far as he is personally concerned is, "I am a dead duck." Tacoma's Grosscup is a rather bitter cup, and even Senator Blundering Foster will find it out before many more moons. A Berlin machinist has invented a pot that cannot boil over. It has a perforated rim, through which the overflowing fluid is returned to the pot. The 7th day of each month, and from 12 m. to half past 12 p. m., is the time fixed and inspirationally communicated throughout the world for Soul Communion of all who love their fellow men, regardless of race and creed—the object being to invoke, through co-operation in thought and unity in spiritual aspiration, the blessing of universal peace and higher spiritual light. We give below a table of corresponding times for entering the Communion in various localities. The opening of the Burlington's new line between Alliance, Neb., via Sidney, Sterling and Brush to Denver, makes the Northern Pacific-Burlington route via Billings the short route to Denver, Col., New Mexico and Texas points. This opens a new, expeditious and attractive line across country to Colorado, with but one change of cars, and that in broad daylight. Those intending to spend the winter in New Mexico or Texas resorts should investigate the merits of this new Northern Pacific-Burlington short cut to Colorado and the South.

Frink|!- MeGraw, though it gave a heav, eis covernorshin. majority for the balance of the Re For no other reason than because that Senator Frink is one of the best business men, one of the most noble hearted men, one of the most charit- able men and one of the most Chris. timlike men in the state should he have heen elected governor, and if it is such a man as this that politi cians and citizens in general desire to place at the head of their state government then they had no. rea son for Senator Frink heing defeated for the place which he sought Street gossip is exceedingly plen- tiful as to the real canse of his de- feat, and the Pie-maker in this issue Proposes to give his version of a few of the causes which led uyr to the do- feat of Senator Frink, and the re election of Gov. Rogers at the Inte November election. First and greatest of all, factional- ism among, the, Republicans them. selves was the chief reason of his de- feat. Factionalism among the Re publicans caused King county to give Gov. Rogers a small majority Vote, instead of giving Senator Frink at least 3,000 majority vote, and the followers of Tom Humism are re- sponsiblee for the King county vote Had Mr. Frink received the Re- publican vote, as did President Me. Kinley, Congressman Jones, and the other state candidates, he would have been elected by at least 1,000 majority, and that, too, allowing Spokane county and all the other Eastern counties of the state, even ineluding Pierce county, to cast their votes just as they did. ‘Then if Spokane county had given Mr. Frink the same vote as it did Presi dent McKinley he would have been elected by over 1,000 majority, and that, too, with King county giving Mr. Rogers a majority vote. The factional spirit which — caused King and Pierce counties tc vote as they did, was the great fac- tion of Levi Ankeny, Tom Humes, ete., endeavoring to fight what wa: ealled the Wilson faction, which had meceeded at the primaries last sum- ‘mer in capturing a majority of the delegates to the late state conven- tion, and thereby naming a state ticket not in accordance with the wishes of the Ankeny faction. For thie the Ankeny people never for- gave the opposite faction and took ‘special pains to knife the head of the ticket all over the state to shows it disapproval. This. was very ap. parent in those distriets where Ankeny and his friends, es pecially Tom Humes, were the strongest. There Mr. Frink was knifed the heaviest. Whi they, perhaps, did not turn enongh votes to change the result they did turn enough votes to great. ly swell the final results. Next, the Northern Pacifie Rail. way company, from the eastern linc of Washington to the west, and wherever it had a particle of influ- ence with the voters, threw its en- tire strength to Gov. Rogers in op: position to Mr. Frink. It is eaid in Spokane county alone, the Northern Pacific was instrumental in handling at least 500 votes, and, if that br true, here were half enough votes to have changed the results in favor of Mr. Frink. Then in Tacoma, it is ‘said the Northern Pacific was instru- mental in having at least 1,000 Re- publican votes go to Gov. Rogers, which same vote went to President McKinley and ordinarily _ would have gone for Frink, which, if true then the Norther Pacific changed enough Republican votes from Sena- tor Frink to Gov. Rogers to defeat the former and elect the latter. ‘Then it is said that Senator Addi- son G. Foster, who is senator only in name, the real senator being Ben Grosseup, used his influence toward the defeat of Senator Frink. ‘The hundreds of employes in the St. Paul Lumber Company, which is Senator Foster's plant, were instructed, ac cording to reports, to vote for Me- Kinley, Roosevelt. and the staie Re- publican ticket, with the exeeption of Frink for governor, and those pre- einets of Tacoma and Pierce eounty where the voters who worked at this lumber mill cast their votes all went heavily for Rogers, yet at the same time gave a heavy vote to MeKinle and the state Republican ticket ‘he Pie-maker is not prepared to sa that Senator Foster did use his per sonal influence against Mr. Frink ‘but he verily believes that somebody {with influence emanating from Sena | tor Foster and connected with that |mill company and who is a Republi- can, made herculean efforts to have the voters work against Mr. Frink, land succeeded right, well. Tacoma iiself eut quite a figure ir ‘the defeat of Mr. Frink, and this was prompied on account. of the eommer- cial rivalry between Tacoma and Se attle, For many years there has been la long-standing commercial feud be- ‘tween these two cities, whose bitter- ness knew no bounds. Whenever Jone has a candidate for state honor the other takes great pleasure in do- ing all within its power to defeat the said candidate. Tt will be remem ‘bered that in 1802 ‘Tacoma cast a ‘very heavy vote against Hon. John H. McGraw, though it gave a heavy majority for the balance of the Re- publiean ticket, both state and na tional. On the other hand, King county gave McGraw 4,000 majority vote, which was sufficient to over- come the adverse vote given him by, Tacoma, and he was elected by a handsome plurality. Since that time Tacoma has never had a candidate for public office but that Seattle, re- membering the McGraw vote, has; taken special pains from time to time to knife their eandidate, thou not so extensively as did Tacoma’ knife McGraw in 1892. | Mr. Cushman lost King county ir 1898, by a small vote, though it wa learried by Jones; ut in 1898 Cush man was running against one of th most popular Democrats then in thi state, and it was thought, even by Republicans, that the —immorta James Hamilton Lewis, who had smelt bacon by permit, was invulner able and could not be defeated fo re-election, he having carried the state in 1896 by at least 15,000 ma- jority. Again, in 1900 Cushman was nominated and a mighty fort was made by the business men of Se- ttle to defeat him in favor of a King county man, J.T. Ronald, jwho they declared, if elected, woud serve Seattle's purposes in congres to a betier effect than would Cush- man, though Ronald was a danger ous Democrat. King county at the last election gave J. ‘1. Ronald, the Demoeratic candidate, a majority o 350 votes over Cushman, whil Pieree county gave Rogers a major. ity of about the same number of votes over Mr. Frink. It would thu: seein that the commercial rivalry in the two cities is very determined and will at some future day completely disrupt the Republican party. Another salient factor which led up to the defeat of Mr. Frink was the opposition of the liquor men o the state to his election, ‘They be lieved that he was one of the goody: goody kind, and if elected governor fof the state would do all in the pow: er of a governor to enforee law: against the whisky dealers that would prove detrimental, even ruinous to their business. Gov. Rog- ors had been at the helm for the past four years and had taken no decisive steps against these dealers, and they therefore had nothing to fear from his re-election. While perhaps the whisky men is not such a powerful factor in polities as they and thei friends would have the leading poli- ticians of this state believe, never theless in a close contest, as was th ease in the late gubernatorial fight they controlled quite enough vote to swing the result from any certait candidate to the one they favored JGoy. Rogers reeeived only about 2,000 plurality over Frink. Now there are more than that number o jwhisky men and saloon Keepers i the state of Washington, and if hal of these were Republicans anc changed their votes from Frink t Rogers, it meant the defeat of Frin| and the election of Rogers. ‘Then is no doubt but that this was done land very effectively done. Strange to say, there were in stances in this state where temper ance people unanimously endorsei the candidacy of Rogers and de nounced Mr, Frink as beingtan unfi man for governor. Just how bot! the temperance people and the whis ky people could concentrate on Rog ers as being their especial champion ix more than the average voter and Republican can explain; but th Pic-maker is quite certain that th temperance as well as the whisk people did both support Rogers anc declare him to be their friend ané ally. Not only the temperance peo ple and whisky people united in th support of Rogers, but it is likewis said that a majority of the churel folk of this state favored the election of Rogers and thereby worked t SIM’S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS | TO CURE DYSPEPSIA | Léifearmacy John Davis & Co. 709 Second Avenue that end. And this of all is a most and church opposérs of any man that was ever elected to a high public of- fice in this or any other state. His atheistic utterances since he has been in the publi mind have been rather remarkable; and how any man be longing to a Christian church could state is another inexplicable political Tt will thus be seen that any on Jof the factors herein mentioned which fought Mr. Frink, with the others working in harmony, held his lection or defeat in its hands, and with all of them working as a unit for his defeat it is most remarkable that he was not defeated by 20,000 majority instead of 2,000 plurality. Out West voters do not seems to lay much store on men’s past upright- ness when they seek publie office, fo they will defeat a good man as read- ily as they will a bad one. For the “inion labor” vote of this state went against Mr. Frink regardless of the fact that he has heen an ar- dent champion of their cause for many years. ‘The temperanee people voted against him, though a com- plete teetotaler. ‘The church people opposed him, though a regular Sun- day Christian worshiper, while Gov. Rogers has always fought union la- bor, is friendly to rumsellers and is a pronounced atheist. ‘The legislature of Washington, be- ing overwhelmingly Republican, a rivalry for the speakership of the lower house has sprung up, and a spirited contest between Repub- lican representatives-elect for the honor has already put in its appear- ance. King county has two candi- dates for the place in the person of R. B. Albertson, of the Firty-second district, and W. H. Lewis, of the Forty-first district. Mr. Albertson is of the Humes faction and is being backed by the Humes-Ankeny-Piper combine all over the state for this position, while Mr. Lewis belongs to no faction and is asking the support of the members elect without regard to clique or fac: tion, if such there be. Mr. Lewis frankly announces that unless he gets the solid support of the King county delegation, he will not stand for the speakership, while Mr. Al- bertson declares that he will make the fight, whether he is supported by the King county delegation or not. Denny-Coryell Co., 716 First ave. ‘The Pie-maker believes that it is presumption pure and simple on the part of Bobby Albertson to aspire to the speakership of the next legisla ture. He is without experience, and in the opinion of the Pie-maker wholly inadequate to the duties that are devolved upon the speaker of the house of representatives. Secondly, he is altogether too factional in his political afiliations to make a fait and impartial speaker in the hous of representatives. | He has been closely identified with the Humes people for the past two lyears. So closely that, if he should funfortunately be elected to the lspeakership, he would not be able tc lsee beyond the factional lines of Ankeny, Humes and Piper in mak ling up his committees and rendering Ihis decisions. ‘Thirdly, were Mr. Al [bertson ever so liberal in his polit ‘cal views, he is considered by a grea ‘majority of the voters of this county wholly unfit from an executive ‘standpoint to administer the rule: ‘and regulations of such an august av fassembly as the state legislature {His political unpopularity is so gen- ‘eral in Seattle, and King county, that were he to seck any kind of an elective position outside of the im ‘mediate neighborhood in whieh he lives he would be turned down with that dull thud as only men of Mr /Albertson’s caliber can be.

No new play of recent years has excited more popular interest than "The Great Northwest," a thrilling and realistic drama written by Herbert Hall Winslow and Will R. Wilson, which will be seen at the Grand opera house all next week, beginning Sunday afternoon. The authors have carefully avoided exaggeration and have truthfully depicted life as it is in the picturesque Red River Valley of the North. Scenes of fun, emotion, pathos and dramatic interest follow one another in rapid succession, and there is not a dull moment in the entire play. The critics of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, Pittsburg, and every other city in which "The Great Northwest" has been played have united in declaring it one of the best American dramas yet written. The production of "Tennessee's Pardner" come to Seattle a few seasons ago heralded as one of the banner offerings of the year. This reputation was not deserved, as those who saw the performance can testify. It came as a stranger and made an unmistakable hit. It returns her next Sunday, commencing with a special matinee at the Third Avenue, as an old favorite. The cast remains virtually the same, including James M. Brophy, Jane Corcoran, Percy Plunkett, Annie Mortimer, Walter Ryder, Fannie Curtis, Sherma Rowles, The Golden Nugget Quartette and ten others. From beginning to end the interest in "Tennessee's Pardner" is kept up by a series of well drawn situations clever dialogue and wholesome comedy, and Manager Arthur C. Aistor is to be congratulated on the success of his production on its artistic merits and the shrewd observation in regard to the tastes of up-to-date theater-goers. SEATTLE THEATER Haverly's Minstrels will begin a three nights' engagement at the Seattle theater tonight (Friday), Saturday and Sunday, with a Saturday afternoon matinee. This is unquestionably the leading minstrel organ- ization of the country and has the finest comedians, George Wilson the world-wide comedian, is even better this season than before. The specialty artists are the best on the road, and have been so pronounced by all newspaper critics in those towns in which they have appeared "WHITE HORSE TAVERN" Made a great hit at the Seattle theater this week, and Manager J. P. Howe has succeeded in getting the company for a three nights' return engagement next week. "White Horse Tavern" is one of the most pleasing, as well as realistic, comedies that has been at the Seattle for a long, long time. Last Wednesday and Thursday engagements at the Settle were its first appearance in the city, and the ovation that it received the second night showed the genuine merit of the play.
