VOL. VII NO. 25 Under Critical Observation in the United States. Kansas Has a Negro Prosecuting Attorney — Negroes in Large Numbers in Alaska — Other Notes and Comments. An interesting incident has been brought to the public notice in the state of Kansas, arising from the late election in that state. It occurred in Graham county, in the northwest part of the state. As rival candidates for the office of prosecuting attorney of that county the Republican convention named W. L. Sayers. The former is of a well-known Jewish family and partakes, for the most part of all their customs and habits, while the latters is most decidedly an American Negro. Both of these races are most unfavorably looked upon by the American people, and it is rather remarkable that representatives from these races should have been nominated as opposing candidates, when there were a score or more of other lawyers in the county equally as capable to conduct the business of the office as either of them. Mr. Sayers was successful in the fight, however, and he now enjoys the distinction of being the only Negro prosecuting attorney in any county in the United States. The county in which he is located has about 1,251 voters in it, and of all that number not over 120 are colored, voters, which shows very conclusively that Mr. Sayers' color cut no great figure in the election, especially helping his opponent, as might be supposed. Settled by Negroes Graham county was originally settled by W. R. Hill, a Caucasian and about 200 colored men hailing from Kentucky. These were followed by a number of white settlers who soon occupied the entire county. The two races in that county have gotten along most admirantly together and, for a number of years one of the county offices has always conceded to the colored voters. That county is the former home of Hon. E. P. McCabe, who was twice elected state auditor of Kansas, and who is now auditor of Oklahoma. It is in this county that George W. Jones has been prosecuting attorney for the past four years and is to be succeeded by Mr. Sayers, a young man who has grown up in the county and pushed himself through school by the labor of his own hands. Mr. Sayers has twice been elected county clerk, and steps from the county clerk's office to the prosecuting attorney's office. Natives on Top. Recent reports from Hawaii declare that notwithstanding the fact that the citizens there are divided on the partisan questions of this country so far as the voters are concerned nevertheless the natives have succeeded in electing Hon. R. W. Wilcox, a native son, to congress, instead of either a Democrat or Republican. It was thought for a long win, but the island was overwhelmingly Republican, and this belief was prompted by the fact that the natives seemed more inclined to favor the Republican administration than the Democratic, but the results of the election show that the natives are opposed to all kinds of American parisianism. Using the words of the Chinese, they are willing at any moment to "drive the foreign devils out," if they but thought they could only succeed in their effort. Delegate Wilcox, though born in Hawaii, was educated at the expense of the Hawaiian government some years ago at the capital of the Italian government and has from time to time been considered a leader in all revolutionary moves made to overthrow American authority there. However, from a political standpoint, it appears that Mr. Wilcox is more inclined to the Democratic than the Republican party. Chinese Are Satisfied. Chinese civilization may be wholly wrong, when compared to Caucasian civilization, but it looks as though it would take the entire Caucasian brotherhood with a standing army stationed in China at their back to convince the Chinese people that their civilization is wrong. While European powers are partitioning China and each securing a large slice of territory on which they are erecting military posts from recent reports from that country it seems that they would have to make their entire territory one vast army post in order to hold what they have taken in China to prevent insurrections and massacres of the The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN whites on the part of the Chinamen. Even the most learned Chinamen do not think that their civilization is wrong, and that, too, even though they may have been schooled and Christianized in civilized countries. Occasionally one finds a Chinaman really converted to the forms of our government, but, for the most part, the Chinamen cling to their own religion and their own civilization like grim death, and this has prompted the many riots and terrible massacres which have occurred in the Chinese empire within the past six months. Negroes in Cold Climates. For the past century or more when referring to the Negroes of this country, especially those living in the South, they have always been put down as being of such a warm climatic nature as to not be able to stand the cold climates, and when the idea has been advanced that it would be to the advantage of both the whites and blacks of the South to have the blacks dispersed throughout the country, this argument has been brought forward by even friends of the Negro, and it had its discouraging effects. However, cold climates no longer have any terrors for the Negroes, for in the state of Michigan there are at present three colored colonies, coming directly from the South, and those composing them are reported as being among Michigan's most successful farmers. Again, as soon as the first Klondike excitement started, Negroes in great numbers rushed North, until now they are to be found in every point of the Alaskan territory. Dawson City has a large colored colony. Nome has quite a colony, and from reports that have come to this office, Negroes are to be seen as far north as any form of humanity is found, all mining and pegging away for gold. It is conservatively estimated that there are not less than 3,000 colored persons in Alaska, and most of them are far in the interior. Let Tmem Scatter. Now that the race question has again become the all-absorbing question of this country, the idea suggests itself that it would be a most wise and consistent move on the part of the Negroes of the overcrowded Southern state to scatter themselves throughout the entire United States and thereby avoid what has been termed "black belts." Owing to an increased demand for domestic help hereabouts Washington state alone could use a quite a thousand such domestic help all present, and they would be far more desirable than the many Japanese and Chinamen that are now filling the places in the kitchens, dining rooms and various domestic halls of this and other cities of the Northwest. Startling Lynching Record. It is hardly possible that history reports anything equal to the number of persons of African blood that have been lynched in the South since the emancipation, and that, too, in times of peace. If as many individuals of any other race had been similarly dealt with as have the Negroes of this country a revolution would have been the result. Statisticians of this country are now declaring that since 1866, not yet forty years, not less than 2,000 colored persons have been violently killed by erased mobs. This spirit has not only found vent in the South, but it is slowly and surely finding its way to the Northern states and being there put in effect, as was recently seen in Colorado. So horrible in its details is the lynching spirit that is prevailing over the country that the good people of Colorado, fearing it would become permanently fixed among their citizens, since the awful Porter catastrophe have met in many towns and localities in that state and denounced the lynchers in Lincoln county in no unmistakable language. Crime of the kind for which many of these people have been lynched is certainly a form of crime that deserves the most severe punishment, in fact death, but this should be done by a due process of law, made and enacted by the citizens of this country after a most mature deliberation. Is Aguinaldo Dead? The Associated Press dispatches declare that Aguinaldo, the great Filipino leader, is now dead. In fact it is claimed that he has been dead a good many months, but this has been kept concealed from the general public by the Filipinos, hoping that the late election in the United States would result favorably to their cause, viz the election of Wm. J. Bryan to the presidency, and that they would gain the same results as if Aguinaldo still lived, so they kept it a profound secret. It is unfortunate for the Filipinos in general that Aguinaldo was not either taken a prisoner by the American government at an early stage of the war or actually shot, for should he have been so the Filipinos would have been now enjoying all the privileges as are the Cubans and Porto Ricans and it would not now be necessary to keep an army constantly on the fighting line to prevent them from plundering the island. SUICIDE The many friends and acquaintances of Charles Butler, son of Mrs F. F. Keeble, of Tacoma, will learn with bitter regret of his having killed his wife and then sending a bullet let through his own heart last Tuesday night, in a lodging house in that city. Butler's wife was formerly Miss Anna Conna, daughter of Hon. John N. Conna, now in Dawson City. The couple married o short notice some five years ago, and owing to the match being opposed by the parents of both parties, they never lived happily together. Mr Butler went East soon after the marriage, and Mrs. Butler followed later on. In course of time he returned and her whereabouts to him seem to have been quite unknown. She however, returned to Tacoma about three weeks ago, and though the two began living together as usual, seems that the husband began to make preparations to kill her, which he did as said above. The woman was shot through and through her body twice, and not yet being dea tween, crazed with not being dea tween, the lifeless body of Charles Butler was picked up by friendly hand. In a typewritten letter which he had previously prepared he blamed his mother for his trouble, she having refused to receive or recognize his wife in any shape, form or manner. The Keebles and the Conna have been classed among the best of Tacoma's citizens and are well known all over the Northwest. How ever, but a few weeks ago a domestic trouble arose in the Keeble home which was taken to the courts for adjudication, and which resulted in Mrs. Keeble being granted a divorce from her former husband, who is now living in Portland, Or. It is a rather sad and tragic ending of what was once a mighty happy as well as comfortable home. PERSONAL Colored miners are wanted at Newcastle, Washington, and, according to those colored persons who are already there, it is no trick at all for them to earn $3 per day for eight hours' work. Why not go there and do well, instead of staying where you are at and do bad? Mr. Walter Beale, who went to Alaska some two years ago, returned last week and expects to leave within a few days for San Francisco and Utah. He says he did both good and bad while in the north. Constable Geo. L. Johnson, of Newcastle, was in the city on legal business one day this week. The Franklin and Newcastle pay car left for those places last Wednesday, and as a result a number of the miners spent Thanksgiving in Seattle, some taking in the ball. The divorce case of Mrs. Georgiana Alfred against Frank Alfred, her alleged husband, has been dismissed by her, on the grounds of the couple having been married, and she has now filed a charge of bastardy against him, a 6-year old boy being the results of the illegal union. Rev. S. J. Collins, of Portland, has been on the Sound for the past week, holding quarterly conferences in his district. In speaking of the work, he reported it in a most excellent and flourishing condition. "We have a good church at Portland, which is doing exceedingly well under the circumstances and constantly growing in membership. The church at Tacoma, of which Rev. G. A. Bailey is pastor, is in a better condition at present than ever before. Rev. Bailey has gone to work with a vim to build up the church, both in influence and membership, and my quarterly conference there was a most successful one. In Seattle I find the church in a better condition than in any of the cities in my district. Rev. Holford is very acceptable to the members of the Jones street church, and he is doing good work among them. Our quarterly conference showed the church treasury in a splendid condition and quite self-sustaining. I have just returned from Newcastle, where Rev. N. D. Hartzfield is stationed, and while the church at that point is not doing so well as we could desire, yet we are holding our own. At present there is no church at Franklin owing to the fact that the membership is too small to maintain a preacher, even every other SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1900 Sunday. However, Rev. Hartsfield makes occasional visits to that camp and is holding the work with the hope that it will soon have a larger membership. I leave tonight (Wednesday) for Portland, where I will preach my Thanksgiving sermon Thursday." days' relief in the aggregate was afforded. The estimated value of the vessels involved in disaster was $6,127,500. Of this amount $7,234,690 was saved and $2,235,500 lost. The number of vessels lost was sixty-one. In addition to the foregoing there were during the year 329 casualties "HUMAN MEARTS" A play which gives a wholesome lesson while arousing the sympathies of the spectators and moving them now to tears, now to laughter is "Human Hearts," a forceful melodrama now launched upon another season of success. It is a play for the family, young and old. It is a relaxation from care and worry, a force in character building through exciting such feelings and sentiments as tend to develop and sertngthen a man. It is universal in its power to interest, to move an amuse, for it deals with experience common to mankind, though specialized by a chosen environment—life among the hills in Arkansas. "Human Hearts" will be the attraction at Third Avenue theater next week, commencing with a Sunday matinee. Mr. George H. Broadhurst's "Why Smith Left Home," written with the benevolent purpose of lightening the hearts of men, and incidentally to diffuse cheerfulness in the precincts of the box office, arrives December 2, for three nights at the Seattle theater. The characters of the play include John Smith, who, for the space of the evening, bears a large burden of human afflictions, a cook lady with an Irish brogue and an expansive smile, as comely a wife as could be produced in the open market of the Rialto, newly wedded, and on whose account all his troubles begin; a demure maid, whose lips are kissable, or else the action of the piece is a mockery; and a number of other individualities, whose special function it is to add to the hilarity of the entertainment. Well, the public found out all about Jones, laughed itself hoarse over his adventures, and is now prepared to do the same thing when it discovers just why one member of the Smith family came to leave home. This farce The production of "Why Smith Left Home" will be marked on this occasion by the elaborate costumes worn by the ladies, which will contain some of the latest Parisian importations said to be marvels in the modiste's art. The ladies of the cast are: Rose Hubbard, Nellie Maskell, Lizzie May Ulmer, Elenor La Salle, Blanche Everson, Bessie Bruno and Charlotte Love. The gentlemen are: Douglas Flint, Eugene Redding, Augustus Mortimer, Frederick Roberts, Frank Craven and others. AT THE GRAND. Walter Walker, who is starring in the latest Broadway comedy success, "That Man," has a most expressive face. A critic recently had this to say on the subject: "Three-fourths of Walker's comedy is in his face, but it is a face that can be traveled on, and as long as he sets himself out in a good vehicle for his fun making, and surrounds himself with a good company, he ought to be able to keep going back and forth between New York and San Francisco in sleeping cars. He has one of the most expressive faces that has ever looked over the footlights, and it is a face with the sort of expressions that are best fitted for use in farce comedy." The "good vehicle" referred to by the critic Mr. Walker has found in "That Man." It is as the New York Commercial Advertiser says, "Novelty, a new touch in farce, and from all indications Mr. Walker will not need a new vehicle for several seasons to come. This excellent comedy will be presented here at the Grand opra house all next week, under the direction of Mr. Harry Lilford. LIFE SAVING SERVICE LIFE SAVING SERVICE S. I. Kimball, general supedimentent of the life saving service, in his annual report to Secretary Gage, says that at the close of the fiscal year the establishment embraced 269 stations, 194 being on the Atlantic, fifty-eight on the lakes, sixteen on the Pacific, and one at the falls of the Ohio, at Louisville, Ky. The number of disasters to documented vessels within the field of operations of the service during the year was 304. On board those re vels were 2,655 persons, of whom 2,607 were saved and forty-eig' lost. Six hundred and seventy-three shipwrecked persons received succ at the stations, to whom 1,472 days' relief in the aggregate was afforded. The estimated value of the vessels involved in disaster was $6,127,500. Of this amount $7,234,690 was saved and $2,353,500 lost. The number of vessels lost was sixty-one. In addition to the foregoing there were during the year 329 casualties to small craft, such as small yachts, sailboats, and rowboats, on board of which were 781 persons, of whom five were lost. The property involved in these instances is estimated at $267,070, of which $256,770 was saved and $100,300 lost. Besides the number of persons saved from vessels of all kinds, there were 595 others rescued who had fallen from wharves, piers, and other positions of extreme peril, many of whom would have perished with the aid of the life saving crews. Five hundred and fourteen of these were rescued from dwelling houses, out-buildings, and other elevated places submerged wholly or in part by the terrible flood of the Brazos river in Texas, July 6 to 12, 1899. The crews saved and assisted to save during the year 371 vessels, valued, with their cargoes, at $4 006,590, and gave assistance of minor importance to 685 other vessels in distress, besides warning fro danger 194 vessels. The investigations made into the details of every shipwreck involving loss of life, and into the conduct of the life saving crews, show that no life was lost through lack of prompt and faithful efforts on the part of the life saving men. More than one-half of those that perished were lost by reason of their unwise attempts to reach the shore in their own boats, instead of remaining on board the wrecks. The cost of the maintenance of the service during the year was $1.536,936. Great Ships for the Pacific. Two of the largest iron steamships in the world are to be built this year at New London, Conn. These vessels, of 30,000 tons register and 33,000 tons displacement, are to be constructed not for the Atlantic but for the Pacific trade. They are to be laid down with the demand of the trade between this country and the Philippines and China mind. In fact, they are planned and are to be equipped to the commerce that has come to us with Hawaii and the Philippines. Less than twenty years ago the first merchant ship was constructed at the ship yards in California. In recent years several large vessels have been built for the same ship yards for passenger and freight service between San Francisco and Honolulu, San Francisco and Manila. The largest freight ship, the California, with 11,800 tons displacement, was launched on May 12, and in July sailed for Manila. There are now building on the Pacific coast the iron steamers Alaskan and Arizonian, each of 16,500 tons displacement. Up to the announcement of the iron steamships to be built at New London, the Alaskan and the Arizonian were the largest freight steamers ordered in the United States. The steamships to be built at New London, it will be noticed, are of just double the size of the freight steamers to be built on the Pacific coast. Each has a length of 630 feet and a width of 73 feet, while the Kearsarge, the largest of our battleships, has a length of 376 feet and a width of 72 feet. These great freight carriers will undoubtedly be followed by others in the development of our Pacific trade. After the close of the Spanish war, in 1898, there was great activity in ship building in the United States. In the year 1898 the United States build 137 vessels, with 216, 164 tonnage. In the same year Germany build 155 vessels, with 173,164 tonnage. In 1899 the United States stood next to Great Britain in ship building, turning out 149 vessels with 283,964 tonnage, while Germany came next with 132 vessels and 179,235 tonnage. In the year 1900 there has been preparation for heavier work in the ship yards of the Atlantic and Pacific, as well as in the ship yards on the lakes. The uncertainty as to the result of the election retarded construction for a time, but no sooner did the vote assure a continuance of the present national policy than there was increased activity in the ship yards as well as in the factories. We now control 800 miles of coast line within easy reach of China, Japan and Russia, and our trade with Eastern Asia ought to amount in a few years, to $1,000,000,00 annually—Inter-Ocean. Statisticians say that tea and sugar cost Russia $264,000,000 annually, and spirits, beer and wine are consumed in the empire to the value of $146,000,000. SEATTLE QUEEN CITY Of the Northwest During the Past Week. Miss Ingalls Was Not Poisoned—Woman Suffrage Discussed—King County's Financial Affairs—Other Local Hits. Speaking about the reign of crime that now prevails in the city of Seattle, calls to mind that the present mayor of Seattle was elected under similar circumstances as was the mayor of Chicago and the present mayor of Greater New York. The Chicago Inter Ocean of a recent date remarked that "since Carter Harrison became mayor of Chicago, that city has been given over to the rule of the thug, the footpad and sneakthief. The city is now over-run with the criminal and violent classes, upon whom he has always depended for political support. Because these classes previous to the present election were invited by the present administration to make themselves at home here. He threw the town wide open, as he had done previous to other elections here for the last three and a half years." How like the condition of affairs that existed in Seattle prior to Mr. Humes' first and second election? He was no sooner made mayor of the city of Seattle by the city council than he threw open the doors of gambling and vices of all kinds and descriptions, and thereby invited to the city every thug to be found in the Northwest. His first election was advocated by these men, and he defeated his opponent by an overwhelming majority simply because these men used their money, their means and reputed devilty to make sure his election. He Was Opposed. Humes was renominated by the Republicans after a more bitter fight made by the better classes of citizens against his renomination for no other reason than because he was the mouthpiece and official go-between for the vile and vicious clauses that had flocked to the city during his first administration. Though he was nominated, he was still bitterly opposed by the church folks and the good citizens in general, but he had invited, if not directly, indirectly, a sufficient number of vicious mer and women to this city to offset ahy move that the church folk might inaugurate against him, hence he was reelected, but running over 1,000 ballots behind his ticket. Ever since he began his second term the city has been overrun with footpads and thugs. Vile houses of ill-fame are taxed and licensed to maintain his political supremacy in the city and he openly boasts of filling the treasury vaults of this city with the money extracted from these people, who live by robbing, murdering and holding up men passing to and from their work, not only at night, but even in the broad daylight. Greater New York is being troubled in a similar manner. Mayo Van Wyck was elected on the wide open policy, like unto that which swept Carter Harrison and Tom Humes into power, and since Mayo Van Wyck's election, greater New York has been a hotbed of robbery and thugdom. Some efforts are being made by the police at this time in Greater New York to relieve the situation, as all of the criminals of the Atlantic seaboard seem to have congregated there; but it is like locking the barn door after the horse is stolen, for the police seem powerless to cope with crime and criminals of that city. Both Mayor Van Wyck and Mayor Carter Harrison are Democrats in politics, and it is most remarkably strange that Tom Humes, like them does not come out and show his true colors, and ally himself with the party that always wins by such tactics. Rey, D. E. Blaine, Dead. Seattle lost during the present week one of its best as well as most remarkable citizens, Rev. David Edwards Blaine, who, by the way, was the founder of Methodism in this city. He came to Seattle in November, 1853, from the state of New York, and has since that time made his home in this city. Seattle was a mere village when Mr. Blaine made his first appearance here and the hills and dales which are now covered with fine mansions and stately buildings were then but a wild will dermess of forest, in which the Indians roamed at will. With a few white settlers that then lived here LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 Mr. Blaine started his church work and built a small church edifice on the spot where the Boston National bank now stands, which church has taken the leading part in church affairs in Seattle during all these years and is now the foremost church as to size, membership and wealth in the great Northwest. During all this time Mr. Blaine had one able co-worker, and that was none other than his wife, who survives him. Later on a son came to his home who ripened into manhood and is now one of Seattle's best-known citizens. Hon. E. L. Blaine, also one of the foremost members of the First Methodist church founded many years ago by his father. Mr. Blaine was a member of the Pioneer Association and was buried under its auspices. It is not a very difficult matter for any man who dies worth $300,000 as was the late Mr. John Sullivan, who died in this city and whose property is valued at that amount, to find a sufficient number of relatives, or alleged relatives, to claim the estate. During Mr. Sullivan's lifetime and since his death, it was not known that he had a relative of any kind, in this or any other country, either near or distant; but it now transpires that two brothers and one sister have turned up, and are claiming the estate. If their side of the story is to be believed, they have established a clear case of identity and relationship to the dead pioneer of this city and will soon be able to claim for themselves $100,000 each of that estate. Each of them is poor in a financial way and work for their daily bread, and such a sum would doubtless prove a godsend to them in their old age. Our city council has made a move toward bettering the condition of affairs in this city and to that end it introduced an ordinance a few nights ago declaring that the laws of the city regulating vice be enforced by the mayor and police officers. This, however, did not meet the approval of the majority of the members and it received a decided setback. Believing that the ordinances of the city should either be enforced or repealed. Councilman Parry and a few others moved that the midnight closing law and the side door entrances to saloons should be repealed, and an ordinance was introduced last Monday night to repeal the same. Evidently this is a move on the part of the good citizens to give the present city administration enough rope to break its own neck During the fiscal year from July 1st, 1900, Auditor E. H. Evenson rendered an account to the county commissioners of the affairs of this county. At the time of making his report there were outstanding $307,518.74. During 1878 the expense of carrying on the courts in King county was $30,747.77, and for 1899 it cost $41,286.20. This increase of 1899 over 1898 arose from the fact that the criminal department had more cases before it than the year previous. During the fiscal year just closed the burial of Union soldiers was quite an item to the county, which amounted to $1,126 while the year previous the same only cost $680. The entire resources of the county, including the court house, the land where it stands, the county farm and all other real estate houses, fixtures and cash, are valued at $915,776.24. The liabilities are totaled at $620,518.74. The salary list for the officers of King county amounts to $120,638.29 a year. The expenses of maintaining the county hospital during the past fiscal year was $1,120.45 per month, and there have been an average of 125 inmates a month. The State Woman's Suffrage League, which met in this city last week, is reported as having had a most excellent meeting, from which some very beneficial results will be derived. The league was addressed by a number of the leading male citizens of Seattle who have taken active parts in politics in both of the leading parties, as well as the Populist and Prohibition parties. For the ensuing year Mrs. N. Jolldon Croake, of Tacoma, was elected to the presidency, instead of Mrs. Homer Hill. The headquarters for the league for the next year will be in Tacoma instead of Seattle. In discussing the prospects of woman suffrage in this an other cities with one of the leading members of the league, the following article on the subject came from her: The great equal suffrage bazaar which will be opened at the Madison New York City, is attracting national attention. It will be patronized by people in nearly every state in the Union, as it has been contributed to by nearly every one of Sullivan Had Relatives. Council After Vice. Auditor Evenson's Report. Woman Suffrage League. PRICE FIVE CENTS proceeds from the sale of all sorts of salable things will be used to replenish the national suffrage treasury. In later years money at command has not been equal to the opportunities for furthering the interests of equal suffrage, and hence the gigantic scheme to raise several thousand dollars to be devoted to this work. Nearly every state wherein an amendment has been recently lost, could have been easily carried with the judicious expenditure of more money. Money with which to procure any campaign cannot be raised in the heat of the fight. The suffragists are doing well to provide themselves with money to enable them to concentrate their strength and conquer one state at a time. About the only effective opposition to equal suffrage that contests its progress is the tendency of the times to restrict the ballot. The wholesale deprivation of the Southern Negroes to the right of suffrage meets with scarcely no criticism from the North. It is not even proposed to cut down congressional representation as the constitution provides in contemplation of just such proceedings as are being carried out in the South where an educational qualification prohibits nearly all Negroes from voting and allows all white men to vote. An educational qualification is already popular in the North, and the next step will be to lengthen the period of residence required for naturalization of foreigners. With the prospect of disfranchising the Negroes in the South and eliminating a large proportion of the foreign vote in the North, it is not much worth while for the women to ask for anything but a restricted ballot. Was Not Poisoned. The sudden death of Miss Mabel Ingalls at Ballard a few days ago, which resulted in the body being exhumed and a chemical analysis made of the vitals under belief that she had been given poison by Mrs. Laura Lourie, who had given Miss Ingalls and her friend a glass of wine the day before she died, resulted in the complete exoneration of Mrs. Laurie by the coroner's jury. The theory of the doctors who attended the young lady was substantiated in the post mortem examination which was held by Dr. Bories and others. No poison was found in the system whatever except that inserted by the undertakers. The parents of Miss Ingalls were almost absolutely certain that she had been administered poison by Mrs. Laurie, but as none was found in the system, they must be convinced that they were mistaken. As Mrs. Laurie has been under police surveillance ever since, it must have been a great relief to her mind to be freed from the bane of suspicion as having murdered a young lady for whom she possessed undying friendship. Washington State Pick-Ups The assessed valuation of Seattle is $40,148,265, about $3,000,000 larger than last year. The valuation of the taxable property of the state, as equalized by the state board, is $237,576,523. Chalchis county claims an increase of 1,000 in population by immigration during the past twelve months. The total valuation of railroad property in the state, as equalized by the state board of equalization, aggregates $21,031,056. The wheels of the Washington State Beet Sugar Company's factory at Waverly were set in motion recently for the season's run. There are now 175 telephones in operation in Fairhaven, as against thirteen three years ago. In New Whatemore there are 425 in use, against 100 three years ago. The estimated capacity of the big cyanide mill of the Republic mine is 200 tons daily, but provision has been made for greatly enlarging it. The mill is now in operation. About 85,000 pounds of various cabbage seed will be shipped from La Conner this fall to seed houses of the East. The seed was raised on about eighty-five acres of land. The growers get 20 cents per pound. The South Bend Electric Company's new dam has been completed. It will form a reservoir holding about 250,000 gallons of water as a reserve for the dry season. The head is 475 feet and the pressure 182 pounds. The Seattle Argus says that Yakima is a city with a great future. Lying as it does with a few hours' ride distant from Seattle, it possesses a climate very similar to that of California. Thousands upon thousands of acres of the richest soil await the water which only needs the bund of man to bring it from the river and spread over the desert, making it "blossom like the rose." —News If you did not attend the ball last night you were not in it. Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second Class Mail Matter. For what were you thankful? Thanksgiving was all lovely, and already the Xmas goose hangs high. Turkey and Greece certainly worked well together yesterday. The man with the snow was much in evidence, even in Seattle, the land of perpetual flowers, the other day. Not many thanks arose from turkey's breasts yesterday, and yet turkey's breasts brought down many thanks. Full dinner pail promises to go down in history as the real paramount issue of the 1900 presidential campaign. President Mellen, like the stranger in New York, has caught on to the push and pluck of Seattle and it looks as though in the future he intended to push her along. It is rather remarkable the number of prominent men of this country that have died during the year that is now rapidly drawing to a close. Gov. Thomas, of Colorado, having succeeded in exterminating the Negro population of that state, is now dead after the Indians. No "inferior race" must exist in his domain. Excitable France is in a flame of frenzy over Krungerism. Not so much with the view of strengthening Oom Paul's already fallen government is this done, as to in some way try to insult Great Britain. Speaker Falknor does not sound bad at all, and, inasmuch as a Thurston county man has never been so honored in the past by any party, the same is herewith adjudged, ordered and decreed by The Seattle Republican, and so mote it be! Bryan and Towne are reported as having met in consultation in Chicago last Sunday. The last time that that brace of political luminaries were heard of meeting was at "Waterloo" a few Tuesdays ago. Cars, it is said, will soon be running on First avenue again. The residents of Queen Anne hill are not likely to swear out a writ of injunction to prevent them from so doing, we feel assured. Russia's czar has died so frequently within the past fortnight that the famous nine-lived' cat would hide its face in shame if it had to compare notes with the czar as to the actual number of lives that each possesses. No sooner does some aspiring of ficeseeker conceive the idea that he has streaks of superhuman qualities and that he is therefore specially selected by the Almighty to be man's Moses, than does he begin to start downward instead of upward on the political ladder of life. "Pulpit, Press and Pothouse, all happily united," may be aptly applied to a recent church publication in this city, in whose columns are to be found the glaring advertisements of vile saloons and concert halls. Wouldn't it kill you? The Volunteers of America succeeded in getting a quantity of good edibles together to give a large number of the poor of this city a dinner on Thanksgiving day, which made them feel that the American heart is in the right place after all. Perhaps it is true, as reported in another column, that the Colorado Indians are sufficiently civilized to give up the chase and to take up hasbandry and railroad work. Nevertheless Gov. Thomas has ordered out the state troops to put the red devils down. The Ballard News has again changed hands, with former Editor George C. Hitchcock retiring. He is succeeded by John Reed and O. H. Woody, two brilliant young men who hope to make their fortunes in the city of mills. It appears that William McKinley, president of the United States, as well as president elect of the same, feels very grateful to the Republican party for both big and little favors conferred on him in the past and present. According to a geologist's report, the United States has unexpectedly come into possession of the famous Garden of Eden, which, he says, is located in the Philippine islands. How fortunate for Uncle Sam that he has that beautiful garden in which his copper-colored children can play! The fact that Kansas went Republican at the last election by 30,000 and in 1896 went fusion by 50,000 but reiterates the oft-repeated allegation that the citizens of Kansas on the whole are a most warm-hearted and sympathetic, yet eccentric voting somersaultic people the American continent ever before saw aggregated together. Washington's state officers-elect, who, it was considered by the Democratic press of this state, were the best lot of nominees on the whole ever before named by any state convention in this state, regardless of the party, are doing themselves honor and credit by naming exceptionally good men as their deputies. Bremerton is becoming famous as a naval station, and just now it is the recipient of much national comment and consideration, all of a most favorable as well as flattering nature. It is more than likely that a large appropriation will be made for it before the present congress becomes a thing of the past. Washington's seventh legislature should get in and do some wholesale railroad legislation. Such is absolutely necessary from a Republican partisan standpoint and essentially necessary from a farmer financial standpoint. Those persons who use the railroads on which to haul their freight to and from their places of abode want more railroad legislation, and if the Republicans expect to win again in this state, they had better give it to them. To maintain a weekly paper in a great metropolis like Seattle is always an uphill business of the most awkward type, but to maintain one as a "class paper," and especially when the class it represents cuts but little ice in the commercial affairs of such city, is still more difficult; therefore, if you are a friend of The Seattle Republican and have advertising to distribute, you should remember to put its name in the pot when you begin to make up your advertising pie. Seattle at present is an open sesame for criminals of all kinds and classes, and the present city administration is solely responsible for the awful criminal condition that now exists in the Queen City of the Northwest. If the impeachment of any one will give us a better city government, then, for God's sake, let's start into the impeaching business on a wholesale plan, at once, if not sooner. The damage suit of Mr. Mowbray against Gee. Gould, through which he received $5,000, calls to mind a similar suit brought by the private secretary of Russell Sage some years ago, which forced Sage to pay the clerk quite a sum of money for saving his life. In both cases the men placed themselves between their masters and deadly danger, and though their masters were aware of that fact, they positively as well as defiantly refused to provide for the men after they had been maimed for life. Such seems to be the heartlessness of the man with the money. Ben Grosscup, the Northern Pacific politician, has declared by his actions in the late campaign, that he preferred a Democratic governor to a Republican one, and now that he has his preference in the shape of a Populist governor, we suggest that the incoming legislature give him a railroad freight bill such as the farmers of Eastern Washington have long clamored for, and thus make a complete job of it for him. It may be Populist legislation, but Ben Grosscup seems to like that in preference to business legislation, and he should have it. To read a nswepaper every week in the year and then not pay for the same is the same as borrowing a loaf of bread from a neighbor every day and then refusing to pay the same back at the end of the year. In other words, it is nothing more nor less than downright stealing. ITEMS OF INTEREST. Lord Roberts, of the English Guard, has suggested that gifts of tobacco instead of liquor be tendered the returning soldiers from South Africa. Tobacco used in moderation, is said by eminent physiicians, to be second only in value to food for soldiers and other persons occupying similar stations in life. A new industry has sprung up in Birmingham, England, in which American manufacturers do not expect to compete. It is a crown-making concern. The firm is making crowns for petty African kings, for which they receive in payment large invoices of ivory. According to one of the government Indian agents the Indians in Colorado of the Apache tribe have become thoroughly civilized and are now working in the fields and on the railroads. For the past 100 years not a snake has been seen in all Ireland. However, in recent years, two specimens of the ring snake have been found at Bray. The Irish papers maintain that the reptiles were imported from England. The widow of Capt. Mayne Reid, U. S. A., who was the author of The Rifle Rangers., Scalp Hunters and other similar books, is now in a poverty-striken condition, despite the popularity of the many novels that her husband wrote while connected with the army. The widow is a daughter of George Hyde, who claims to be a relative of the Earl of Clarendon. The balance of trade in favor of the United States for the past ten months is $500,000,000. This is the largest balance in favor of the United States that has ever as yet been reported by the treasury officials. According to the superintendent of the dead letter office there is a rapid accumulation of mail matter at that office. The number of pieces of matter received from all sources during the past year was 7,536,158 against 6,855,983 for the preceding year. Letters and parcels held for postage numbered 610,000, and those misdirected were 422,793. The number of letters and parcels opened was 6,676,003. There were 50,553 letters containing an aggregate of $44,144, and letters containing drafts, notes, money orders, etc., to the face value of $1,136,645. Letters and parcels found undelivered and returned to foreign countries, 606,412. Eugene Smith, a New York lawyer, estimates that it costs this government $400,000,000 a year, besides the cost of taking care of them after they have been convicted, to look after the criminal classes. The one million and a quarter criminals cost more than the running of the federal government, more than twice as much as it costs to maintain the army and navy and more than the United States spends for all her public schools. The Prince of Wales, who is now in his sixtieth year, has recently adopted the use of eyeglasses. England's future king has always enjoyed the best of eyesight, but an eminent occultist has recommended the use of eyeglasses for the protection and preservation of his future sight. There are only 180 soldiers living that are entitled to wear the Victoria Cross. Germany has decided to devote the very best of her agricultural lands to the cultivation of the sugar beet. No country in the world has to pay so heavily for sugar as does Germany, hence this move in the sugar beet line. Switzerland, the smallest republic in all Europe, does not permit any child under 14 years of age, to become a wage-carner, while English boys 12 years of age still work in the mines for fifty hours a week which is longer than the hours for men in the mines of Northumberland and Durham, England. Col. Bryan Declines. Col. Wm. J. Bryan, the late candidate for the presidency of the United States on the Democratic ticket, has refused numerous offers of lucrative positions since his defeat. Chief among them is a ten thousand dollar salary to act as editor of a Denver paper. He has also been offered a large salary by the journalistic wonder, Wm. E. Hearst, to act as editor of a prospective Washington City paper, which would be founded by Mr. Hearst if Mr. Bryan would accept, but he has refused all offers and declares that he will remain in Lincoln, Neb., so far as he now knows, during the remainder of his life.

The chief argument of Tom Humes from time to time has always been vituperative sarcasm, and believing this an opportunity time to make another such a ruse as that, he hates at the Republican party, "You knew I was going to do it; why did you elect me?" If there be one thing for which Tom Humes is famous more than all others it is base political ingritude. No man who has ever ardently supported Humes for office but who was subsequently downed by Humes, and always as soon as he succeeded in getting the office which he sought. The Republican party has given Humes an office ever since he has been in the county, which has been fifteen or more years, and now that he has grown fat in Republican offices, like the political ingrate that he is, turns on the party that has given him all these good things and demeasures it for having given them to him. In last week's Republican, the Pie-maker said that there was a probability that Humes would be a candidate on the fusion ticket for re-election to the mayoralty for this city, the next municipal election, and is letter in the Times last Friday would seem to verify that very statement, and he can, therefore, from now on be classed as a fusion protege rather than a Republican officeholder. Speaking of Humes' partisan infidelity, a gentleman who heard him speak at Colfax during the late campaign, said it was painful to hear how Mr. Humes struggled to keep from saying one word in defense of the Republican party while making his speech. The time was divided between Charles G. Heffner and Humes, as a joint discussion was arranged for, and although Heifner scored the Republican party, and especially the state nominees with all the venom that is in the man, and that is saying a good deal, Humes followed him, with an hour and a half speech, and during the entire time, he did not make one single defense or utter one single word in half of the state Republican candidates. Upon being questioned at the time as to why he did not champion the Republican nominees cause, it is said that he grumily remarked, "because I was done up in the last Republican convention." should have been the nominee for governor instead of Frink. I therefore, have nothing for which to thank or praise the Republican party." Not only at Colfax was this true, but, it is claimed, that at no point where Humes used the campaign committee's money to go out and speak did he champion the local ticket or defend the attacks made upon the Republican candidates while making such speeches. This in itself is sufficient to justify the assertion that he had determined on leaving the party, bag and breeches, at an early date, and now that he has taken the Democratic organ as a mouthpiece, the fact can no longer be denied by either him or his friends. The Republican state officers-elect are now looking over their respective fields of labor for the next four years, and are acquainting themselves with the methods of conducting the various offices to which they have been elected. Hon. W. B. Stratton, attorney general-elect, has named C. C. Dalton, the noted Pacific county attorney, as his chief deputy, and Mr. Dalton is now in Seattle prepartory to make it his headquarters after January 14th next. Mr. Dalton was for four years prosecuting attorney of Pacific county, and in that capacity made a most enviable record. He is said to be one of Washington's brightest brainiest, as well as most profound lawyers, and he will be quite an acquisition to the legal fraternity of this city. Hon. Sam H. Nichols, secretary of state-elect, has spent the past week at Olympia looking over the office which is now held by Hon. Will D. Jenkins, and accompanying him was his son, who is to be his chief deputy. Mr. Nichols has the characteristic of proving himself to be one of the most diplomatic men in official circles anywhere to be found in this state, and that was shown, not only in making his son his chief deputy, who is a very able and conscientious young man, but also in his wise selection of the Hon. J. H. Schively, chairman of the state Re publican committee, as deputy in HOUSES AND LOTS FOR SALE AND TO LET WHALLEY &' EASTMAN PHONE MAIN 611 5-6 COLMAN BLD. surance commissioner. His appointments will add much to the popularity of Mr. Nichols' office, and it is more than likely that the state will get one of the best administrations in that line that it has ever before had. Hon. S. A. Calvert, state land commissioner-elect, has selected for his chief deputy the Hon. J. L. Murray, of Island county. No man in the state is better versed than is Mr. Murray in state land business. He was a member of the legislature in 1897, and since that time has been respectively county auditor and county treasurer of Island county, and filled both offices with ability and credit to himself and his constituents. He refused a renomination for county treasurer last fall and was indorsed for the place in Mr. Calvert's office by most of the leading Republicans of the state.

A statesman in the truest and broadest sense of the word has the United States government lost in the death of Hon. Cushman K. Davis, of Minnesota. His wise and able counsel in our national legislative halls will be most aggravatingly missed during the coming five years through which period he so piteously prayed to live. In America we have learned to say, "the services of no man are indispensable," which, for the most part, is quite correct; and while there are others that will take Senator Davis' place, still the nation in its present international troubles needs men of long public experience and men who have proven themselves capable and qualified to cope with the diplomats of any nation or land. Cushman K. Davis was one of the men equal to any emergency, hence he will be sorely missed, though another with equal qualifications take his place.

HAS NO POLITICAL PULL. The Seattle Republican is trying to read this paper out of the Republican party. To The Republican we will say this paper does not rely on its "political pull" for an existence. Can The Republican truthfully say as much? It is a well-known fact that The Republican is the mouthpiece of Wilson and his henchmen, and in its columns they vent their spleen against every one who is for clean politics and true Republican principles. No respectable paper would permit its columns to be used for such despicable purposes. Reform, Cayton, reform! and don't sow any more discord in the Republican ranks.—Auburn Argus.

Lord Roberts of the English Guard, has suggested that gifts of tobacco instead of liquor be tendered the returning soldiers from South Africa. Tobacco used in moderation, is said by eminent physicians, to be second only in value to food for soldiers and other persons occupying similar stations in life. A new industry has sprung up in Birmingham, England, in which American manufacturers do not expect to compete. It is a crown-making concern. The firm is making crowns for petty African kings, for which they receive in payment large invoices of ivory. The Prince of Wales, who is now in his sixieth year, has recently adopted the use of eyeglasses. England's future king has always enjoyed the best of eyesight, but an eminent oculist has recommended the use of eyeglasses for the protection and preservation of his future sight.
