VOL. VII NO. 27 ITEMS OF INTEREST Culled and Collected From the World of Science. A General Observation of Men and Things—Facts and Figures About Nations and Their Customs—Uncle Sam's Great Commercial Increase. The republic of France has twenty-two organ manufactories. There are at present employed on British railroads 400,000 men, at wages aggregating more than $125,000,000 annually. In the United States the piano manufactures reach the total sum of $85,000,000. The output in Chicago ranked second in the United States. In the United States there are 150 rubber manufactories, employing 15,000 operators, who produce 280,000 tons of goods annually, valued at $250,000,000. The first woman law graduate of the world was Mrs. Ada Kepley, of Illinois, who received a diploma from the Northwestern University in 1890. During a campaign in Canada, campaign buttons cannot be worn, as the Dominion franchise act says no person shall exhibit any sign of his political faith; after the election notifications are made. In Columbus, Ga., at present there are 20,000 bales of cotton stored in the warehouses, being held by the owners on account of the low price, and yet cotton is higher this year than it has been for a number of years. The steel works of Krupp, at Eisen, Germany, consumed in 1899 16,000,000 cubic meters of water, which was equal to the consumption of the city of Frankfort, having 23,000 inhabitants. The works also consumed 1,682,500 tons of coal and 18,800,000 cubic meters of gas. Juries give pretty strange verdicts some times, but a jury at Anrora, Ill., rendered a verdict the other day which seems to cap the climax. It was as follows: "The deceased came to her death from bowel troubles and a complication of doctors." The exports from Galveston, Tex., during the eleven months of this year have been $74,333,797, while the imports have been $1,360,343. The largest increase was in bales of cotton, which was an increase of 33 1-3 per cent. over last year, and cotton seed meal, which was a gain of 66 2-3 per cent. over the previous year. London beer drinkers have experienced an epidemic of arsenic poisoning, which, it is claimed, came from the beer. The local government board is making inquiries into the presence of arsenic in beer, and it is more than likely that some sensational exposures will follow their reports. The Santa Fe system, on which there is a general strike at present, has 7,880 miles of main track, on which there are 975 stations, and on which there are 450 passenger trains and as many freight trains daily. There were before the strike, 26,000 employees, and that number 1,200 were telegraph operators, of which number 600 are out on the present strike. The United States built vessels from June 30, 1900, to November 30, 1900, to the number of 495, with a carrying capacity of 149,963 gross tons. There were seven steel ships on the Great Lakes, with a carrying capacity of 34,933 gross tons and four small steamships, with a carrying capacity of 8,946 gross tons. The balance of the vessels built in the United States are scattered all over the country. The 12th census shows that there are now only 339 Seninole Indians, who are divided into three tribes and are now located near Jacksonville. Fla. They are rapidly dying out from disease and exposure. The men outnumber the women two to one. Several years ago the Indians were interested in farming operations and grew most of the produce that they used, but this they have stopped and are now charges on the general government. The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Honey dew has been a subject of recent investigations, which show it to be a sugary substance obtained from the juice of the trees—such as a sycamore, ash and lime—on which it is found. The statement that honey dew is sometimes produced by other insects than aphides seems to be ill founded, as reports indicate that the insects noticed are prisoners that have been caught by the sticky honey dew. The sun's heat raises from the earth every minute thirty-seven billion tons of water, or say a weight equal to six times that of the Great Pyramid. Such heat could only be produced on earth by burning eight million cubic miles of coal per second—that is to say, a nice little block two hundred miles long, two hundred miles high and two hundred miles broad, weighing twelve thousand millions of tons. It cost the United States in the Clark bribery case $25,$30. About 200 witnesses were taken to Washington from Montana, and of that number ninety-one gave testimony before the committee on privileges and elections. Each of those witnesses was paid $3 per day for the time he was in Washington, his expenses and mileage to and from Washington. It was a rather heavy bill for Uncle Sam to pay, but it ended in Clark being kicked out of the senate. The French government is preparing to tunnel the straits of Gibraltar and run a railroad between Tangiers and Morocco to meet the Algerian at Tlemecn. M. Biers, the engineer, estimates that the entire cost of building the tunnel will be $43,425,000 and $17,370,000 for the railway. He thinks that the total traffic would be 600 persons and 700 tons of freight daily, which at current freight rates would give an annual income of $2,547,000, or nearly 6 per cent. on the money invested. Important as is our coal, its formation is not yet clearly understood. Considering the evidence furnished by long study, Mr. A. C. Seward, F.R. S.4, states that the microscope shows ordinary coal to contain spores, fragments of tissues, bacteria, and the ground substance of coal. The seems also include boulders and coal balls. From this he infers that the seams are not the result of growth in one place, nor of drifting, but of the accumulation of vegetable debris derived chify from plants growing on the surface near the edges of large lakes and pools. The dead plants were carried outward by gentle currents, sinking over the entire water area. LIVE ON FIVE CENTS A DAY. Five cents a day is the cost of living among the Ruskinites, or members of the socialist colony, which after becoming somewhat famous in Tennessee, was transported to a site near Waycross, Ga., where it now flourishes. Co-operation is the secret of these remarkable economic conditions. By combining, exercising thrift, discretion and a good deal of self-denial the five cents daily expended purchases enough to keep each Ruskinite robust and cheerful. The bill of fare that results is by no means palate-tickling, but it is adequate and hygienic, and the Ruskinites say they like it. Any one might, living in the open air and exercising vigorously. In any case, they are proud of having demonstrated something. They are living on the lowest daily expenditure that is possible, and that is a triumph of a sort. Here is an outline of the fashion in which this economic miracle is accomplished: All provisions are bought at wholesale and in large quantities. They are then cooked in the community kitchen and cooked, of course, by the colonists. Socialists do not employ servants. When cooked, the food is served in the community dining room, where tables are set for 300 persons. Vegetables are the chief article of the Ruskinite diet, and as they are raised by the community itself, they are abundant and cheap. In seasons when fewer vegetables are produced the daily cost of living is increased from five to seven cents. Mr. George G. Bright, who has been conspicuous in political circles in this city for the past year or more, and who is a prominent attorney at the bar of this county and practitioner before the state supreme court, is now connected with the German American Investment Company, located at 543 Third avenue. In his new office and as assistant attorney for that company he promises to become one of Seattle's leading and most influential legal lights. HOLIDAY GOODS, Denny-Coryell Co., 716 First avenue. LOCAL LINES Concerning the Queen City and Her Citizens Ex-Chief Reed Investing His Thousands in Washsngton Dirt—Th Mayor Builds Fine Homes-Policemen Following Suit-Things That Read Well. THE MAYOR GOT HIS ALSO. It is also rather amusing to note that Mayor Humes went into office practically a pauper, for it is generally believed that he used up his salary while superior judge before it was even earned, can now boast of property valued into the thousands of dollars, all gained and saved since he has been mayor. It would thus appear that to be connected with the city's affairs is a far more lucrative position than to be connected with the state's affairs. In other words, while Thomas Jefferson Humes was judge of the superior court he found it hard to make both ends meet from a financial standpoint, but no sooner than his become mayor of Seattle than his adversaries vanish as a fog before the noonday sun, and where mortgages and debts once hung over him like a midnight ghost fine dwellings with costly furnishings now smile in his presence. No wonder he made such a fight to be re-elected to a position to would guarantee him such a heavy reward for the work that he is supposed to do while serving the city as mayor. The intimations of The Republican that things have gone wrong at the city hall, that is, that the city officials, so far as the mayor and the chief of police are concerned, have been side partners to the games and the vices that have been going on in this city during Humes' administration to the extent of getting their rakeoff, must be correct. If their reoff, not they awfully near it. For not only have the mayor and chief of police suddenly become men of wealth and means, but the police SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1900. men, who earn $70 a month for the most part, are also building fine houses, buying properties and have been doing a rushing real estate business ever since the wide open policy has been in operation. Just how any man or any set of men could do so much on so little is a secret that a great many citizens of this city would like to discover, and, if the police have not accepted money wrongly, but have accumulated all they have from an economical handling of their $70 salary, they could double their present possessions by informing the general public of their secret of success. Many of us make $70 per month, yea, $170, and still find it hard to maintain our families and pay the natural expenses that come to a household in the city of Seattle and save a dollar for a rainy day. In view of that fact, it would be quite a financial stroke for them to sell their peculiar way of stretching $70 out so as to cover more territory that the average man who is not a policeman, with $170 can do. MURDERER LANGDON'S CASE. MURDERER LANGDON'S CASE. In watching the Langdon murder case it is not hard for the average Seattle man to see that it is taking practically the same course as did the Paul Page murder case in this city some years ago. It will be remembered that Page murdered Harry Frazier in a saloon brawl, and in order to prevent the conviction of Page, it is said, and said on very good authority, that thousands of dollars were expended among the police, the sheriff's office and daily papers, to, if possible, create a sentiment in favor of Page and adverse to Frazier, which was done, and he was subsequently acquitted. Now the daily papers are silent about the murder of Shank, and, if his name is mentioned at all, it is to the effect that he was a quarrelsome man, and not congenial even in a gambling room. On the other hand, Langdon is being held up as an ideal man, his word for truth and venality being questioned, his good deeds (? from Chicago to Seattle being printed in glaring headlines every night and morning. The city and county officials, if they have not been fixed, such certainly would so appear, for they have nothing commendatory to say of Shank. James Hamilton Lewis has his $5,000 fee as Langdon's attorney, Langdon himself is out of jail on a nominal bail furnished by the rival gambling houses to that run by Edward Shank, and, in fact, everything that would lead to the acquittal of Langdon for the foul and cold-blooded murder he is guilty of has been well planned and laid up to date, and all working like a charm. Most people feel and believe that a cowardly murder was committed when Langdon shot Shank down on being refused the loan of $50, and they further believe that the murderer should at least get a life sentence in the state penitentiary for his criminal act. Hanging is none too good for this man, but under the circumstances it is very doubtful whether such could ever be brought about, and he is certainly deserving a life sentence. Under the influence of large sums of money, however, and under the influence of the "wide open policy," which is being run in this city, it is very apparent that he never will be convicted for what he deserves, if convicted at all. It is to the shame and disgrace of the civilization of American citizens that such can be perpetrated with impunity. From such a state of affairs it would appear that the female cowboy preacher was not very far cowboy in declaring that the police of this city winked at crime. They not only wink at crime, but they, if reports be true, have no objection to aiding and abetting the committing of crime if the criminal will only fix the force. Here, evidently, are a lot of men who get their price to see and yet do not see criminal acts. When a police detective declares on the streets that there is no evidence against a man who has willfully shot down a fellowman and that the man who did the shooting should not even be tried in the superior court for lack of evidence it looks a good deal as though that detective had been fixed. WANT GAS AT ANY PRICE. People living in the gas limit of this city are "hollering" for dollar gas and imagine that they are doing the proper thing; but the persons living out of the gas limit are suffering for the use of gas and feel that those living in the gas limit are doing them a great injustice when they so complicate the gas company's affairs as to make it impossible for the company to extend their mains and laterals in those sections of the city that are needing gas and are willing to pay not only one dollar but two dollars and even three dollars for the sake of getting it. "This dollar gas agitation, it seems to me," said a gentleman living on Thirteenth avenue, "is nothing more nor less than certain little paper trying to black mail the gas company into paying it a large sum of hush money. In my neighborhood we are perfectly willing to pay $2 for gas if we can only get it. It is not the $2 we are kicking about, but it is that we have no kind of dollar gas, and from the present prospects we will not have it for the next five years to come, though we are within a stone's throw of it. Seattle needs gas in every part of the city, and when this has been done and the town thickly settled up, as in Eastern towns, then the dollar gas will have some reason and justification in it; but as Seattle is today, it is very apparent to any business man with a grain of sense that the gas company is losing instead of making money. This is not said to boom the gas company in any shape, form or manner, but it is said by a citizen who needs gas in his home, and in behalf of other citizens who need gas just as this individual citizen does. The legal complications that the gas company has been involved in should be raised, and raised at once, that this company may cover this entire city with its pipes and light." AT THE THIRD AVENUE THEATER "A Stranger in a Strange Land" is from the pens of Walter Vincent and Sidney Wilmer. It is the story of a young Englishman, who, being sent to America in the hope that a trip abroad might settle him, returns home and launches into an ocean of lying, with a view to deceiving his relatives as to his conduct abroad. The authors have seized upon this pretext to illustrate the fashion of English people, as well as of other foreigners, of getting our geography mixed up, often located Omaha just back of Harlem. The situations are said to be very funny, the climaxes unctuous in their humor and happy in tableaux. It comes to the Third Avenue, opening next Sunday with a matinee. A special matinee will be given on Tuesday (Christmas). AT THE GRAND OPERA HOUSE. The Grand Opera House has a magnificent holiday attraction in Richard Golden, heading a splendid company in "Old Jed Prouty." Those who saw it on its first visit here are united in the opinion that it is one of the purest and best plays ever written. "Old Jed Prouty" is a play depicting life in a country village in Maine. The mere statement as a matter of publication carries as much interest as any other play. But to become a witness to a genuine reproduction of a life history, embodying the lights and shades of sorrow and mirth, and always conscious that it is there, we have before us a history, and the actors are simply a reproduction of men and women who really exist. There will be no advance in the regular house prices for this engagement. PERSONAL. Mr. Allen Dean, well known in this city, but who is now doing business at Everett, was visiting with friends here last Tuesday. Mrs. Dora R. Leonard and daughter, Lillie B., left for their home in Holly Springs, Miss., last Saturday, at which they arrived last Thursday evening. There will be a Santa Claus entertainment at the A. M. E. church on Fourteenth avenue, Next Monday evening, at which Santa Claus will appear well loaded with Christmas presents for the babies and distribute the same. Mr. George H. Grose has been employed as traveling salesman for a cereal company and his headquarters will be in Portland, Or. No man in the state is better known than Mr. Grose, and he will make a splendid salesman for the company he now represents. Mr. J. W. McConnaughey, county treasurer elect, has just returned from an extended trip to his old home in New York. He left with a view of resting from the campaign, and succeeded right well, but on his return he found a thousand and one applicants for office waiting to work him just as bad as the campaign grafter.

BROTHER IN BLACK Throughout the Evergreen State and the Northwest The Sunnyside Colony in Flourishing Condition — Lisha Francis Murders Miss Lella Jones—Editor Griffin Has a Breezy Time—Other Local Notes. En route to Eastern Washington last Saturday, a representative of this paper ran on to R. R. Denny of the Denny-Blaine Land Co., who was headed for Sunnyside, the famous irrigated valley on the Northern Pacific. In speaking of that valley, Mr. Denny had this to say: "Sunnyside is rapidly developing into one of the most famous farming communities in the Evergreen state. The company in which I am interested is known as the Sunnyside Company and by next spring it will have about 64,000 acres of fertile lands under water, and these lands are being rapidly sold to persons from the East and from other sections of the country who are flocking to Washington at present. Twenty and forty-acre tracts are the minimum and maximum sizes of each of the farms, and to get these irrigated it costs the farmers $1 per acre per year. There are many different kinds of colonies settled in this section of the state, and among the most energetic are the Dunkards and a small colored colony that own homes near the town of Sunnyside. It gives me pleasure to say to you that the colored colony seems to be, the most prosperous of them all, and I am free to confess that it appears to me that they are making much more money than any of the others down there. After having once gone over their farms and seen how well they are doing it occurred to me that it would be much better for the colored folk who are now in the South, and who are having considerable trouble there, and even those living in the West who are looking for jobs in the city, to go to such localities and get similar homes and make good livings as do the colored men who are now in Sunnyside. There are sufficient lands there to accommodate not only a few hundred, but thousands of them, and certainly they can get homes no cheaper in any other part of the United States than in Washington and in those districts that are irrigated. PAUL SCHULTZE'S DREAM. "These Sunnyside lands that are now owned by the Denny-Blaire Land Company, composed of young men well known in Seattle, were the ideal dream of Paul Schulze, who committed suicide on account of the financial trouble that involved his affairs while attempting to carry his plans to perfection in that valley. It was a pleasing idea of Mr. Schulze's to at some time plant a large colored colony in that valley. Yea, he did make an effort to that end, and in connection with the present editor of The Seattle Republican, colored men from Tennessee and other Southern states were solicited to come out and settle in the Sunnyside district, where they could acquire cheap homes under the ditch, which was then about completed. The scheme fell through, however, owing to the financial troubles which arose in Mr. Schulze's affairs, which prevented him from making the expenditures of the plan. No colored persons came from the South, but a number of colored men from the state looked well on the proposition and went over in the valley and located government homesteads and have stayed by them ever since that time, and now that the company's waterway has just entered their immediate neighborhoods their farms are being irrigated and the lands that they own are among the most valuable in the valley. They are valuable from the fact that they own 160 acres, while the average farmer there owns but twenty acres. These men not only have enough land for a farm for themselves, but are able to sell off enough to more than pay for a perpetual water right for their own places. There are no more such golden opportunities there for any one, but it is an easy matter to get a home in that section, well irrigated and one of the most productive little homes that can be found in any part of the United States and on which more salable produce can be raised in any other state in the Union NEGROES' CONDITION BETTER. The Republican is pleased to note a marked improvement among those persons in the state of Washington employing help to give the Negroes a reasonable, if not a fair show, a honest labor. But a few years ago it was almost impossible for a black person to get a job of any kind which carried with it a position of trust of honesty, though the same was memorial, in any locality of this state. But this has all given way, and now in every city of any size in the state large numbers of colored men or a many as can be found, are being employed and given whatever kind of work they can do. This is especially notable in the city of Seattle, for it a large number of the business houses at present colored porters janitors and laborers are to be found employed, and more would be employed if they could only be bead. Both Tacoma and Spokane have always been very liberal on this point, as the business men in those cities have always given the colored people a splendid show at the work they had to do, and it is noteworthy that they have not only held their own in that respect, but the colored men seeking employment have made steady gains and the same is true in most of the cities, and the Negroes are doing extremely well from a financial standpoint. Among the many camps that employ colored miners no class of miners is doing better than they. They are not only earning quite handsome sums of money, but they are likewise saving the same, and, if they are not banking it, they are building and furnishing for themselves nice homes, in which their families can comfortably live, and ceasing to be nomads, rushing from camp to camp in quest of something they could not expect to find. While in Roslyn a few days ago a representative of this paper was placed to note that a number of new homes had been erected by the colored folk of that mining camp and that the same were well furnished and that the men and their families seemed perfectly contented with their lot. The most of the miners earn from $3 to $5 a day, and while they may live a bit extravagantly in some instances, they nevertheless have money enough to amply provide for their families, and they are doing so. REASONS FOR REJOICING. The above items may be of small interest in the eyes of persons belonging to a race of opulence and influence, but to persons belonging to a race that has been oppressed in times past and that are still being pursued by the labor unions of this country for no other reason than that they happen to have black faces, they are very essential and loom up to them like a Rainier in the distance. The black folk of this country cannot help pointing with pride to every advantage point they are yearly gaining among the business men of this country. There is an urgent need of more honest, hardworking black men in these sections, and were they here they would be a means of stopping the flood of Japanese that are rushing to the United States at present, who are underworking American labor and sup-planting the house girls, the farmer and the machinist, and who are doing more to upset capital and labor than any other class of people that come to this country to better their conditions. ELISHA FRANCIS A MURDERER ELISHA FRANCIS A MURDERER. Elisha Francis, a young colored man well known in most of the Sound cities and the mining camps of Eastern Washington, now occupies a murderer's cell in the court house of King County. In a rage, brought on by overdoses of bad whisky, he shot and instantly killed Miss Lolla Jones, a young lady of his own race, who lived at Franklin, where Francis has lived for the past year or more. From what can be learned of the case, it seems Francis had been paying his attentions to Miss Jones for some time, which were not reciprocated, and enraged over his failure to win the young girl's heart, he murdered her that no one else should do so. Miss Jones bears an enviable reputation in the community, and according to the miners not one word condemnatory of her character has ever been said. She has lived in Franklin and Newcastle with her parents for the past twelve years or more. Her father died about a year ago, since which time she has been living with her mother at Newcastle. After Francis was arrested the following letter was taken from his person, which clearly demonstrates that he had willfully murdered the young woman. The letter is to a friend in Vaneouver: "I am going on a drunk today and no telling what will happen before I get through. I am getting so now that I do not care what happens to me. When people begin to tell lies now will they do after a while? So today I am going to have a day of reckoning, and I do not know what will happen before I get through." LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS You know when I get my head full of fighting whisky and my Portuguese blood up I have not got any sense." Francis has lived in Seattle for many years and has many friends and acquaintances here. When a mere stripling of a lad he was employed on the P.-I. in various capacities and at one time it was hoped by the head men on the P.-I. so well did they like young Francis, to make a stereotyper of him; but he got to indulging in bad whisky, so goes the report, and he was let out. He then went to Tacoma and found work in various capacities for a year or more. He returned to Seattle and was employed by Pound Master Walter Washington as a deputy in his department. He was with Mr. Washington for some time and did his work well. However, he often had unnecessary fusses and disputes with persons he had dealings with. From there he went to Newcastle, where he was employed as one of the miners, and in that place he has resided for the past year or more. Since he has been engaged in the mines nothing has transpired that would prompt any one to place him among professional peace disturbers. It was given out a few months ago that the and the young lady whom he murdered would be married some time during the present winter. Since Francis' incarceration, he has refused to talk on the subject, under the instruction of his attorney he will keep the secret or his reason for killing the young lady until placed on the witness stand for trial. The Franklin people claim it to be a cold-blooded and foul murder and nothing short of a hanging is deserving him as a punishment. EDITOR GRIFFIN'S ESCAPADE. D. W. Griffin, who is pretty well known in the political circles of King county and to some extent in state, was charged one day this week by Rev. E. M. Mathews, pastor in charge of the colored Baptist church at Newcastle with assaulting his sister, Mrs. Cora H. Jones, with a revolver with intent to do her great bodily harm. He was arrested by Constable Johnson and brought to Seattle Monday afternoon and placed in the county jail for safe keeping. He had his preliminary hearing last Tuesday afternoon and was held to the superior court in $500 bonds. Some one has said that it is a long road that has no turn, and that can be aptly applied to D. W. Griffin, who is now in the toils of the law. Since he has been in King county he has been more or less trouble, and has been accused a number of times of using his gun on persons at whom he took exceptions on account of some trivial misunderstanding. A couple of years ago he left Franklin because he attempted to shoot a man by the name of Martin. It is reported that he fired two shots at Martin, one of which passed through his clothes and narrowly missed his body. He then came to Seattle and became interested in the fake newspaper business, and posed as editor of various weekly papers, which sprung up and died like mushrooms. He has cut something of a figure in political circles, owing to his tricking and trading around. Last spring after the city election, it is said, owing to a difference of opinion which arose between himself and Attorney J. E. Hawkins, he walked into Hawkins' office and drew a revolver on him, demanding that he write him a $200 check. Mr. Hawkins made no talk of the matter, but simply allowed him to go his way, feeling certain he would soon run his race. He was arrested on First avenue, near Cherry street, last summer, for abusing a policeman and threatening to use his gun. At police headquarters a gigantic gun was taken from him, but one or two of "the boys" went on his bail for his appearance at court on Monday. The case, however, was dismissed by Judge Cann, owing, it is said, to certain political influence brought to bear on him. He has been mixed up in many other squabbles and fusses in the city, of which the public has never heard, and at the mines, while living there, and since he has left there, he has been considered a dangerous character, always creating disturbances wherever he went. There are but few persons in Seattle and King county who sympathize with him, and this is why it was so hard for him to give bail. His case is not an aggravated one, but a majority of the persons who know him think the county jail for a month or so would do him no harm. Tom Seater went his bail.

If there were less whisky sold at the mining camps and fewer vagabonds allowed to loaf around the premises there would be less crime committed there. Next Monday a week will be the last day of the last month of the last year of the 19th century. You will never witness a similar chronological event. The government shipping bill seems destined to become a law in this country, non-progressive Democracy to the contrary notwithstanding. To get something for nothing has prompted a good many living persons to try their hand at robbing the wills of dead persons. Perhaps Roslyn didn't have small-pox some few weeks ago, but if she did not, she was so close to it that many of her citizens have been left all over in spots from fear of it. We congratulate the Seattle Review, the only Democratic paper in King county, in adopting the idea of our items of interest column and rehashing the most of our articles. Jarring in Presbyterian circles in Seattle appears to be a matter of course, the supposed refinement of its congregation to the contrary notwithstanding. Newcastle, one of the coal mining camps of King county, is experiencing a carnival of crime its own self. It is evidently trying to imitate its big sister, Seattle. Jessie Morrison, the accused Kansas murderess, has been admitted to bail, which is but a tacit admission on the part of the court that there is no further hope of ever convicting her. No more prize fighting is to be allowed in the city of Chicago. What a pity to thus rob Mayor Harrison of one of his most lucrative resources to furnish funds for running the city on the wide open plan. Next Tuesday will be Christmas, and there are but few families in Seattle, and in the state of Washington for that matter, who are not sufficiently prepared to pay Santa Claus for a most liberal supply of Christmas gifts for their households. Cleveland's hope to have Democracy return to its first principles is a rather weak and antiquated chestnut. Democracy has had no honor nor consistency since it tried for four long years to disrupt this government. Editor Griffin has often had politicians up against it, but, unless we are sadly mistaken, he is worse up against it at present than any of his political victims. Getting jail kangarooed must be an unpleasant sensation to an editor. Says Mark Hanna: "Believe me good and true; I repeat it, I not only do not want the presidency in 1904, but will not have it, though tendered to me on a 'crown of gold.'" Mobbing Negroes is nothing new to Indiana. No state, even in the South, ever persecuted the Negro any more than did the state of Indiana, and its recent triple Negro lynching is "old Injiana at its formah sef." Notwithstanding the fact that the Kentucky has been to Turkey, made a parading threat and sailed for other ports, still the sultan refuses to pay Uncle Sam his indemnity bill. Better send some Kentucky whisky next. That Chicago woman who permitted herself to be beaten around the room for fully a half hour by a burglar in order to prevent him from stealing $50 worth of surgical instruments from her employer was possessed of far more pluck than good sense. What's in a name that the Sing Sing people should want the name of that city changed? "Evil be to him who evil thinks"—no one of common judgment believes that Sing Sing is a prison city complete, but only a city in which a great prison is located. A hundred years from now, do you have any idea what Seattle and the state of Washington will look like? A hundred years from now will you and your name have been completely forgotted? A hundred years from now will the modus operandi of civilization have undergone a complete metamorphosis? The attention of the grand jury in Cook county, Illinois, has been called to the carnival of crime that is prevailing there under Mayor Harrison's administration, and it looks as though some of the officials as well as the criminals of that city will get pulled before many more days. It is too bad that such a move cannot be started in Seattle, and end in the official beheading of some of the apparently corrupt officials. Leigh Hunt may start a paper in Seattle, but those best acquainted with him believe it is a hoax of the worst kind. "If Leigh Hunt has money enough to start a paper to compete with the P.I. he would pay his debts in this city," came from a very prominent gentleman one day this week. Seattle may be able to support two morning papers, but in our opinion Leigh Hunt will never be the man at the helm of either of them. The Oregonian is much alarmed at the sand bar which is at the mouth of the Columbia river, lest some one think it of serious damage to Portland's commercial interests. Don't be alarmed, old man, Portland is already a back number, and it can not get much worse whether a sand bar be found at the mouth, the head or the tail of the Columbia river. Portland's poke-easy ways of doing business is its most serious bar. Boys' swell Top Coats, $5, $4, $4. KLINE & ROSEBERG. $25 First Avenue. A useful Xmas gift, Smoking Jacket, $5, $6, $7.

Jesse A. Frye has been selected by Senator Foster to succeed District Attorney W. R. Gay, of Seattle." Just why Mr. Foster should want to reward Mr. Frye is more than the Pie-maker can figure out. Mr. Frye, it will be remembered, jumped from first one senatorial candidate to another while he was a member of the legislature in 1899, and no one of the three leading candidates could ever bank on him supporting him from one day to the other. He was elected as an out-and-out Wilson man, and promised until Mr. Foster was elected that he was coming to Mr. Wilson, and he was only waiting until he could get all of the Northwest members in line, when he would bring them all with him. That he was deceiving Mr. Wilson his subsequent acts have proven. He voted for Mr. Foster until he thought there was a prospect of Mr. Ankeny's being elected, whereupon he jumped from Foster to ankeny, and then, seeing that the tide was against Ankeny, he landed in the Foster camp just in time to say that he was a Foster man at the time of his election. Mr. Frye is an able man and there is no doubt he would make a very efficient district attorney, but Mr. Gay has done the very same thing, and, if President McKinley was deserving of re-election, Mr. Gay is also deserving of reappointment, whether he be a Foster, Ankery or a Wilson man, and the same can be truthfully said of all of the other Federal officeholders in this state appointed by Mr. McKinley after his first election. To disrupt the Federal brigade as it now stands would show that President McKinley is willing to cater to local political factions and that he had no confidence in his own appointments. Mr. Frye will not be appointed to succeed Mr. Gay, nor will any one else excepting Mr. Gay himself, and this the Pie-maker firmly believes will be done. * * * Though it is many months before the senatorial election comes off again the Ankeny people have begun a political maneuvering such as to cause comment not only in Seattle, but all over the state. The same kind of political tactics were begun by the Ankeny people prior to the election in 1898 and his followers and henchmen were placed all over the state and became identified with the politicians in each county, and as a result their faces were to be seen in the county conventions advocating the election of Levi Ankeny. After Ankeny was defeated in 1899, it will be remembered that Tom Fisk, Ankeny's senatorial manager, was at once sent to Seattle to live under the pretense of practicing law, which thing no one ever heard of Fisk doing while in Seattle sufficient to pronounce it a business. *** He was a politician of the deepest dye and made a bold effort to capture the delegates of King county to the last state convention, in which he most signally failed, though money, violence and treachery played conspicuous parts in the effort to capture the county and state conventions to the senatorial advantage of Mr. Ankeny. Having failed in King county, it is now reported that Mr. Fisk is to move to Mason county and locate in Shelton, which means that Fisk is to strike for the legislative delegation in Mason county in the interests of Ankeny. To take the place of Fisk in King county, the astute politician C. C. Dalton has taken up offices in one of the prominent blocks here, and owing to his political sagacity in the past, it is thought he will be more able to swing a majority of the legislative delegation in 1902 from King favorable to Ankeny. C. C. Dalton and a few henchmen, it is thought by Ankeny, will prove to be better manipulators than Piper and Fisk. If this brace of politicians can hold stalking-horse Humes into line on the pretext that he is to be a candidate for the senate, as in 1898, they hope to capture the whole delegation for Levi Ankeny. *** Unless the signs of the times deceive the citizens of this state, there will be a good heavy clash between the seventh legislature and Gov. Rogers. The legislature is overwhelmingly Republican, and all of the state officers on the Republican ticket were overwhelmingly elected, and Gov. Rogers was the only thing that the Democrats saved out of the wreck.

SHERMAN, CLAY & CO 7121 SECOND AVE. before the legislature by some of the more enthusiastic Republicans and an effort will be made by them to take the state patronage out of the hands of the governor and place the same in the hands of a state board created by the legislature. This will be especially applicable to the supplying of the state institutions with their necessary wants. At present the state institutions are being cared for by the state board of audit and control, and it is made up of appointees suitable to the governor. It was the intention of the law-makers to have the various state officers members of this board, but Gov. Rogers early disagreed with state officers elected when he was, and he removed them from the board of audit and control and filled their places with private citizens, and such private citizens as would become his political henchmen. The next legislature will in all probability abolish the present state board of audit and control and will try to devise some plan to take the matter completely out of the hands of Gov. Rogers and give the same to a Republican board, either made up of state officers-elect or private citizens. This it can do by passing a law to that effect and giving Rogers ten days to sign the same, and, if he vetoes it, promptly pass it over his veto. The Pie-maker does not believe, however, that the legislature will try to tamper with the appointive power of Gov. Rogers however objectionable his appointments may be to it. Certain it is that the governor will appoint various men to fill the appointive offices in the state very objectionable to the rank and file of the Republican party, and men who will have no seruples at all in resorting to any kind of political trickery, skullduggery and chicanery to aid and abet Governor Rogers and Senator George Turner in their political schemes, but even that will hardly move the Republicans to tamper with the expressed will of the voters to the extent that the governor of the state be robbed of the right to fill the minor positions under his administration with men of his own political faith and following. Speaking about Seattle and the senatorial situation, a very prominent gentleman of this city, and one who takes an active part in politics, spoke as follows to the Pie-maker one day this week: "In my opinion, Seattle has had her last nominee for state office for a good many years to come. Owing to the fact that there are two mighty factions among the Republicans in Seattle each of which are struggling to kill off the other, instead of the two struggling to kill off the Democratic party, and for that reason it will be impossible for either of the factions to be strong enough to name or to have the state convention name any man for an office hailing from Seattle. The Republicans in the state convention will fear to do this, simply because if Mr. A. is taken from one faction, the other faction will do as was done in the last state election, knife the candidate of the successful faction. Everybody knows that Senator Frank was beaten for the governorship by the Tom Humes faction of this county. Regardless of the justice or the injustice of the matter, it is an undeniable fact, and the same in the future would be true. If a Tom Humes candidate should be selected by the state convention for a place on the Republican ticket, he would be defeated at the polls, and vice versa if a Frink faction candi- Finest Line of Triplicate Mirrors in the City at Lei's Pharmacy Cor. Second ave. and Columbia st. date were selected. War to the knife has been sworn by the friends of Senator Frink on any man that is nominated by the Humes faction in this county. They make no bones of this; they simply say they are out of politics, but will remember their enemies. Now, the senatorial question will come up two years from now, and it will be one Republican faction fighting another Republican faction, and it is more than likely that a compromise man will step in from some other county and get the indorsement for United States senator, and thereby shut King county out in the cold for another twelve years. *** "We are told that at the next election the state of Washington will have three congressmen instead of two to elect, and Seattle has a longing eye on one of them, and, I am free to confess she ought to have one of them, but will she? is the question. If the legislature re-districts the state, which it certainly will, and if Seattle and the northwest are placed in the same district, it will be Seattle against the outside counties, and if the outside counties concentrate on a candidate, such as the Hon. Jesse Frye, Judge McBride, F. H. Brownell, or any of the leading Northwest Republicans, they will simply do Seattle to a queen's taste, and no man indorsed by either of the factions in King county will come within a ten-mile radius of getting the nomination. While there is a chance of Seattle getting the nomination, the odds are wholly against it, and to my mind she will never get it. But the factions are here, the factions are for fight, and the factions have fought, and the factions will fight, and, as a result of this continuous fighting, Seattle will be left in the political soup." *** Plenty of clerks to wait on you at Kline & Rosenberg's, $25 First avenue.
