Hon. W. J. Bryan, the Democratic candidate for the United States presidency, has decided to establish a weekly paper in Lincoln, Neb., in whose columns he can keep his ideas before the general public. He himself says that he expects to lecture occasionally, especially in college towns, to students, but his principal work will be done with his pen. The paper will be called the Commoner, and will advocate the principles set forth in the Kansas city platform. A vote has been taken by the public school children of Mississippi on the selection of a state flower. Some 25,000 children voted in the contest, which resulted in the Magnolia being adopted. Close on to the Magnolia the vote showed a decided preference for the Chrysanthemum. Forty-two different flowers were voted for. The revenue surplus last year in New Zealand was $3,000,000 over the expenditures. The public debt of the colony stands at $228,715,000 and the financial statement proposes that parliament should authorize another $4,866,000 loan, to be expended chiefly on railways. Recently there was sold in Paris for $2,000 a costly piece of lace, which it is said, caused the fatal quarrel between Prince Napoleon and his wife Josephine. It was, a very costly piece of work, and it had been taken home by Napoleon to his wife, but she not valuing its real worth, had it cut to suit an idle fancy of her own. Napoleon walked in her room about the time it was being cut and exclaimed "cannibal!" and walking up to her slapped her jaws and turned and walked out of the room. General Ageja was quite a famous leader in the insurgent army in the Philippines under Aguinaldo. In 1896 Aguinaldo gave her command as a general and she had 2,000 soldiers under her. She fought desperately and won many honors on the field of battle, but after the Americans occupied the country, she laid down her arms, and is now conducting an immense woodyard close to Manila and using a great many of the old soldiers that were under her command. Mrs. Laura Alderman, of Harley, Turner county, South Dakota, owns the largest orchard in that state. She has 150 acres planted with 8,000 fruit trees of various kinds, two acres being of plums. There are 1,000 gooseberry bushes, 1,000 current bushes, 500 grape vines and three acres of strawberry plants. One the landing of Paul Kruger in Marseilles 18,000 snap shots were taken of him every minute. Before he had been in Europe five minutes, every motion that he made, every shade of expression that passed over his face, were written in the minutest details for the inspection of the people yet unborn. Ex-Queen Ranavolo, of Madagascar, is now in exile in Algezi. She was dethroned by the French and banished from her native land some ten years ago or more. It has been decided by the French government that she is to never again hear her native tongue, nor see one of her own race. There are 310 vessels in the United States navy. According to reports not more than 150 of that number are actually in service at present. Of these 100 are in commission. In the year ended June 30, 1900, over 100 vessels were sent to the several navy yards for repairs. Unlike the Spanish, the Americans are making herculean efforts to educate the Porto Rican children and to that end 100 American teachers are now employed on that island teaching the native children's minds to shoot. The relief fund on the Pennsylvania railway lines east of Pittsburg and Erie, shows that benefits were paid to members and families of deceased members during the month of October, 1900, to the amount of $60,698. Nashville, Tenn., has furnished a colored colony consisting of 200 colored men for the Hawaiian islands, who have already sailed, and when there will work on the sugar plantations, taking the place of the Japanese. It now tran-pires that at one time Senator T. C. Platt, of New York, was an architect, and he points with pride to a $50,000 building which he erected in Hoboken, N. J., in proof of his former occupation. The wheat crop of New South Wales this season, it is said, will be 12,000,000 bushels, an excess of 4,500,000 bushels over that of 1899; of this 8,000,000 bushels are available for export. France imported from Italy during last year 4,000 fox skins. The Italian fox is quite plentiful in that country and the French furriers are using them to a telling advantage. The commissary department of the Chinese army is very scant. The Chinaman does his fighting for the most part on rice and cabbage, not even being given salt pork. Suciding in Germany during the year 1899 was quite a fad, as there were reported 10,700 persons who committed suicide during the year. It is reported that London alone has 100,000 pickpockets, men, women and children, who exist on what they can relieve others of. Engineering statistics claim that there are now 100,000 railway locomotives in use throughout the United States. Useful Xmas presents for father brother or friend KLINE & ROSEBERG. SEATTLE SUMMARY Of Local News for the Past Seven Days. Court News Suppressed—The Editors Thrown in Jail—Office Leighton's Trouble—Frisch's Exposure—Criminal Outlook—Other News of Importance. COURT NEWS SUPPRESSED. More than a month ago The Seat the Republican issued an edict to the chief of police and the policemen in general, as well as to the mayor of this city, to suppress the vile and vilious sheet published in this city and known as the Court News, but the edict was not obeyed, and because at the time the police were enjoying the fun found in its columns on the other fellow. There is always a day of reckoning, and the viper that is placed in the farmer's bosom to prevent freezing when warmed will strike the farmer just as quick as it will an enemy. So the Court News that was being indirectly encouraged by the police, soon began to strike at the very men encouraging it and tell things on them as well as on other people. Then at once the emergency arose on the part of the chief of police and his detectives to destroy the paper and its plant, which they did last Saturday morning. It was a most excellent piece of work, however, even if the devils did it, for no publication that has made its appearance on the streets of any city of the United States was so deserving of extermination as was that Court News. Its editors were arrested, thrown in jail,ailed out by men of their kind, but re-arrested by the prosecuting attorney, and they now languish in durance vile, just where they should have been months ago. It struck The Republican as being rather remarkable that such a paper could be printed, published and distributed on the streets of a city of the United States in which there were a hundred different churches, and yet it was done. The citizens of any respectable mining camp in which there was not a single woman living would have resented the distribution of such a paper among the miners. For once in the history of the Seattle police force, it has done a meritorious deed. IS LEIGHTON GUILTY? This paper does not intend either by inuendo, intimation or otherwise to implicate Officer Leighton as acting as a go-between between robbers and the persons robbed in this city, but it does intend to call the public's attention to the fact that in its last issue it made reference to a similar state of affairs said to exist among the policemen of this city; and in view of the fact that the Leighton affair had not then been spoken of, it is rather remarkable that the exposure should follow so fast on to the article made public in The Republican's columns last Friday. Officer Leighton may be just as innocent as the chief of police, after a thorough investigation, as he declares, has pronounced him to be, but there are some strange things attached to the proposition, owing to the great amount of speculation that has been indulged in by the citizens of this city in about the same strain, that Officer Leighton, the chief of police and Merchant Patrolman Bert Taylor will have to explain very fully before they will stand perfectly fair in the public's eye and mind. MR. FRISCH'S ACCUSATION. A few days ago Mr. Frisch lost about $2,000 worth of jewelry from his store, which was entered during the night by thieves with a pass key. The stock of jewelry being burglary insured, Mr. Frisch was giving himself no great amount of trouble about the return of the stolen property. He had laid the matter before the city and county officials, and, if they apprehended the guilty parties, all so well and good; but he showed no inclination to offer a reward for the return of the property. If Mr. Frisch is to be believed, and his word is certainly as believable as Mr. Leighton's, this was not pleasing to the persons who did the stealing, nor to their accomplices, and so they sent the police officer to him to learn if he would offer a reward for the return of the stolen property. The proposition was made flat-footedly to Mr. Frisch by the officer, to which Mr. Frisch demurred in no uncertain language. The matter was at once made public in the papers by Mr. Frisch, and an investigation of the acts of the officer was ordered by the chief of police. The SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1900 officer denied any intention of wrong-doing through the columns of the public press. He called on Officer Bert Taylor to verify what he had said, and this was most elaborately done by Taylor, and finally an exonoration on the part of the chief of police was made public, so far as Officer Leighton's wrong-doing in the Frisch matter was concerned. Nevertheless Mr. Frisch has neither denied nor modified his first statements of being approached by the officer of the law to act as a gobetween between Mr. Frisch and the crooks who turned the trick, if only a reward was given by Frisch for the safe return of the stolen property. If Officer Leighton feels and knows that he has been unjustly treated and accused by the merchant, who is of excellent financial standing in this city, he should seek redress at the hands of the courts in the shape of a damage suit, but evidently both Leighton and the chief of police have wisely considered this an unwise step, as things might come out that were not wanted. OTHERS HAVE DONE IT It appears that the above, if it be true, is not the first instance where the officers of the law in this city have approached persons who have been robbed and offered to see that the property was returned, if the persons robbed would offer a sufficient reward, and the following from the Saturday Mail Herald will to some extent bear out the assertion: "A few days ago one of Seattle's prominent citizens was held up, near the business center of the city, and relieved of all the valuables on his person, including a watch. The watch was of particular value to him, being in the nature of an heirloom. He hastened to the police headquarters, but instead of turning his case over to that august and slow moving body, he paid a detective $15 to take up the case at once. Before midnight (within three hours' time) his goods were restored to him. The peculiar part of the situation is that no arrests were made, and no one was called to account for the robbery. The next question is, who was the hold-up? " OUTLOOK NOT FLATTERING The citizens of any city that is overrun with thieves, thugs and murderers, as is Seattle, at present, do not have much to look forward to in the way of being protected from such a class of humanity, when the officers of the law that patrol the streets are guilty of acting as accomplices of the criminals, to the extent that when the criminal relieves the citizen of his valuables, if the citizen will only offer a sufficient reward in gold coin for the return of the same. Such a state of affairs existed in the city of New York for a number of years and was only up-rooted and driven out of existence after a legislative committee investigated and exposed the entire workings of the police of that city in connection with the criminal classes. For a citizen to be held up on one corner of the street and relieved of his money and valuables by a footpad, and to be approached on another corner by an officer of the law with the proposition that if he will only pay a sufficient reward in gold coin both his money and his valuables will be safely returned to him is a state of municipal affairs that is verging close onto anarchism. Such a condition may not exist in Seattle in reality, but a great many of the citizens of this city really believe that it does, and it is the duty of those in authority to show them that they are mistaken by having the city's policemen and sleuth-hounds to ferret out crime without the citizen or the person who has been robbed by the footpad to be compelled to offer to the officers and sleuths a side reward to get their valuables returned. HE WAS TOO CUTE. Though the Christmas festivities have raged in Seattle during the entire week not one murder, strange to say, has been committed for a week or more. This, however, did not seem at all pleasing to some of the imbibers, and so one Charles Felmer thought he would break the record and drink himself to death. Having filled himself up to the brim with vile drinks, he at once began to exhibit to his fellow seamen his acrobatic qualifications. Being near the water, he fell overboard in the bay and before he could be rescued was drowned. D. B. SPELLMAN Practical Plumber and Contractor Nantucket Nantucket 212 "Diamond" Road BROTHER IN BLACK Finding Favor Among Owners of Leading Journais. Professor Booker T. Washington Writes of the Rise of the Negro- A Plain Everyday Communication -Negroes Go to Hawaii to Work on Sugar Plantations. COLORED LITERATEURS. It is noted that Prof. Booker T. Washington is now a regular contributor to the San Francisco Outlook, which is said to be one of the leading journals of its kind in the West. The Negro race is to be congratulated in finding the columns of leading journals open to its members for regular contributions, and it is especially to be congratulated on them being thrown open to Prof. Washington. True it is that the articles contributed by Prof. Washington are plain statements and facts concerning the race, which he is endeavoring to elevate and make good citizens of this country, and for the most part practically without literary merit; nevertheless, they are eagerly read by the Caucasian race, and especially those that are interested in the same cause as is Prof. Washington, because they tell the story of a race that is being led from slavery to the higher planes of civilization in a plain, matter-of-fact way. Prof. Washington are like unto the early stage performers among the Negroes, inasmuch as they tell only of the characteristics of the colored race, which for a number of years will be highly appreciated by the white race of this country. The hardships of any race, their toils and their ups and downs of life, when told by one of their number, always elicits sympathy, pity, and in a number of instances, real meritorious appreciation, and this has prompted the Outlook, in connection with a number of other leading periodicals of this country, to ask colored men of literary ability to contribute articles touching the condition of the race to which they belong, and for which articles they pay liberally. MUST BROADEN OUT Speaking about colored men of literary ability writing for magazines, and the fact that they do not write on any subject save that about their own race, reminds the writer that the literary field has not yet attracted many writers among the Negro race. As said above, when they have written at all, they have written mostly concerning their own race, but they have not made any effort whatever to furnish purely literary articles for publication. The story of how they are oppressed down trodden and humiliated may be a splendid one to gain public sympathy on, but it is an awfully poor one to gain literary fame on. In order to become one of the literary lights of the country, the colored man must discuss the questions of the day, irrespective of his race, the same as any other of the leading writers of the country. He must write about those things and the effect of those things that transpire even though they may be opposed to the race of people to which he belongs, just the same as if they favored it. For one's articles, thoughts and opinions to live in the future, they must possess that deep and profound literary merit that will attract the attention of mankind through all ages. NEGROES FOR HAWAII A few days ago the Associated Press dispenses told of a number of colored men who had left the South to go to Hawaii to farm on the sugar plantations of those islands. Certain men of the United States who have invested many thousands of dollars in the sugar business in Hawaii do not feel that the Japanese labor that they are compelled to use on the islands gives satisfaction, and believing the Southern Negro better adapted to the raising of sugar, propose to experiment with a small colony of them. Just what effect such a move, if it should be extensively carried on, would have on the Hawaiian islands is a question that is hard to solve at present. It will be remembered that a majority of the persons living on those islands at present are native Hawaiians, who are to some extent racially allied to the Southern Negro. They are not exactly Africans, but they are Malays with dark skins, and frequently with crimpy hair, so much so that they impress the average Caucasian as being a distant cousin of the American Negro. Now, if the American Negro is transplanted to those islands, and should the two people miscegenate, what effect that would have on the conditions there is a problem. Delegate Wilcox, who represents the islands in congress, does not approve of the move, and will make some effort in congress during the coming session to prevent it, but this is impossible, as it is a part and parcel of the United States and every American citizen in the United States has the right to go to any part or place within its domain. SPINDLE IN HAWAII. The state of Washington has contributed a very interesting Negre emigrant to the islands of Hawaii in the person of John H. Spindle formerly an engineer at Roslyn. For the past twelve years Mr. Spindle has been an engineer at this camp and during all that time he has been a hard and faithful student in the work in which he was engaged, and took a special course in some engineering school in the East, which guaranteed him a paying situation as soon as he had finished the same. The opportunity came to the school when there was a call made by the sugar planters of the Hawaiian islands for colored help of all kinds and classes that are used in perfecting such a crop. At once Mr. Spindle was ordered to the islands as one of the engineers to accompany the 200 colored men that left Nashville, Tenn., for the same destination. He was accompanied by his wife, and they are of the opinion that they have found a spot that they have been so long looking for. CUT IT DOWN. The white Democrats in Mississippi do not want their representation in congress and the electoral college cut down, although only 57,459 votes were cast in the late election. Secretary of State Power shows that there were 96,291 votes cast in the Democratic primary and 137,000 voters registered. The state spends $1,600,000 for education, but the claim that it is equally apportioned between the two races is a falsehood. Gov. Longino is one of the strongest men who was ever a governor of a Southern state. He has our entire confidence, because we feel that he wants to deal fairly with all the races of the population of Mississippi. He has largely the character and the independence of the late Gov. William Yaney Atkinson, of Georgia, who was one of the best and strongest men the New South has produced.—New York Age. GOMPERS ON COLOR LINE. Apropos of the grave situation and under the title "No Place for Color Line," President Samuel Gompers, in his annual address before the national convention of the American Federation of Labor, said the following, the sincerity of which is unquestioned and the spirit of which should appeal to every fair-minded person: "Realizing the necessity for the unity of the wage earners of our country, the American Federation of Labor has upon all occasions declared that trades unions should open their portals to all wage-workers, irrespective of creed, color, nationality, sex or politics. Nothing has transpired in recent years which has called for a change of our declared policy upon this question; on the contrary, every evidence tends to confirm us in this conviction; for even if it were not a matter of principle, self-preservation would prompt the workers to organize intelligently and to make common cause. In making the declaration we have we do not necessarily proclaim that the social barrier existing between the whites and blacks could or should be felled with one stroke of the pen, but when white and black workers are compelled to work side by side under the same adverse circumstances and under equally unfair conditions, it seems an anomaly that we should refuse to accord the right of organization to workers because of a difference of their color. Unless we shall give the Negro workers the opportunity to organize and thus place them where they can protect and defend themselves against the rapacity and cupidity of their employers; unless we continue the policy of endearing to make friends of them, there can be no question that they will not only be forced down in the economic idea and be against any effort made by us for our economic and social advancement, but race prejudice will be made more bitter and to the imjury of all." Arkansas Baptists, at their state meeting held at Little Rock, November 20-25, raised $6,140. In a letter to Samuel E. Huffman, of Springfield, O. Gov. Thomas, of Colorado, makes a direct charge against a sheriff in connection with the Porter atrocity. COLLINS GOES OUT Of the Gas Company January First Next. Has Done a Rattling Good Business for the Company-Chamber of Commerce Roasts the CityAdministration — Ringing Resolutions Passed by the Body. HE WAS A RUSTLER. Mr. C. R. Collins, who for the past five years has been business manager of the Seattle Gas and Electric Co. of this city, will retire from office next Tuesday and enter into private business for himself. The Gas company loses a most valuable man in the retiring of Mr. Collins and his place will be hard to fill, it matters not who tries it. When he took up the business in this city it was as low as it could be under the circumstances and still live. He adopted as soon as he took charge novel devices and plans to advertise the use of gas, not only for lighting purposes, but for heating and cooking purposes as well. When he took charge of the plant there was not over a dozen cooking ranges in use throughout the entire city. At present it is roughly estimated that there are five thousand cooking ranges in use in the city and gas for lighting purposes has supplanted the electric light usage in very nearly every residence in the gas district, and all this has been brought about by the untiring efforts of Mr. Collins and his peculiar ways of advertising. During his management of the company he has made as many friends, perhaps more, than any other business man in the same length of time. He has always been pleasing, affable and accommodating to all persons dealing with the company and that has brought many patrons to the place of business that otherwise would not have gone. In the future he will not be connected with the gas company in any shape, form or manner, further than a consulting engineer, which is practically an honorary position. He will be located in the New York block, where he has fitted himself up an excellent suite of rooms and will do a general engineering business from a practical standpoint. He is at present directing the construction of the gas company at Everett in which he is personally interested, and a number of other business concerns will employ him in a consulting capacity to look after their business and works. His successor comes from the East and will take charge of the gas company's affairs next Tuesday. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE The carnival of crime that has reigned supreme in this city for the past three years, growing worse each year, each month and each week, has moved the Chamber of Commerce, the largest, most influential and most united body of men working for the best interests of this city to be found in the city, to demand of Mayor Humes in a ringing resolution that he take some immediate steps to prevent further crime on the public streets of this city. The resolution offered by Mr. Knox and unanimously adopted by the Chamber of Commerce is as follows: "Inasmuch as crime has become so prevalent in our city that our citizens are unsafe in going from their places of business or work to their homes, and inasmuch as some effectual means should be adopted to afford our people the security they deserve; therefore be it "Resolved, By the Chamber of Commerce of Seattle, that the city council be requested to take such measures as in their judgment seem best and most effectual to check crime and to secure the enforcement of the law for the benefit of the city." When a conservative body, made up of business men of all parties, factions and conditions of mankind, of all kinds of religious beliefs as well as unreligious beliefs, is moved to censure an administration as did the Chamber of Commerce one day this week rebuke the Humes municipal administration, it is very evident that something is radically wrong with such administration. Perhaps Mayor Humes and his city officials are right in their way of doing and their way of running this city, and then perhaps the Chamber of Commerce with its 600 members, is wrong in censuring the administration for its way of running the city, but such is not believed by a majority of the citizens of this city regardless of their past or present party affiliations. It is not the intention of either the newspapers or PRICE FIVE CENTS the Chamber of Commerce of this city to advertise it as a rendezvous of thieves, thugs and murderers, but unfortunately they are here and some way must be devised by the city officials and the business men to rid the city of them. The mayor and the chief of police do not seem inclined to want to free the city of this very objectivable class of humanity and they have become so bold and aggressive in their operations on the streets that the business men who are compelled to go to and from their places of business and their homes, have been moved to take some steps in that direction for their own protection. In many instances they have been moved by the footpads themselves, not only moved, but touched for every cent and every valuable they would happen to have on their persons while en route to their homes after a hard day's work had been done. It is time to begin to look at this matter from a practical business standpoint and every citizen in the city unite in trying to rid the city of its oversupply of genuine bad men. A unique as well as useful souvenir has been sent out by President James D. Hoge, Jr., of the First National Bank of this city, which will fill a long-felt want to the desk man in an office. Mr. Hoge has frequently sent out useful as well as ornamental souvenirs either on Christmas or New Year since he has been president of the bank, but his last is the "latest" and beats anything that his advertising mind has heretofore brought to light. Mr. S. Colridge Taylor, of London, the semi-African musical prodigy, stands alone in his class as the foremost operatic writer of his age. The race can well afford to feel proud of Mr. Taylor, and rejoice in his splendid achievements.

The size and shape of the tower of Babel have just been determined by M. des Mely, a French archaeologist, from a Greek manuscript. According to these measurements chronicled by the old Greek scribe, the tower would have topped the Masonic temple in Chicago by just five feet, as in its pristine proportions it stood 219 feet above the levels of Babylon. As examined by experts of the French Academy of Inscriptions this old manuscript gives a good description of the tower. Its base was a little over fifty miles from Babylon, laid in the sands of a desert plain. Its outlines were square 6.2 feet each way, and the ceiling of the ground floor was seventy-five feet high. Above this six stories towered, one above the other, forming a sort of central tower, square in outline. The top floor was the sanctuary, and was reached by a flight of 365 steps on the exterior of the tower. These 365 steps marked the days of of the year, and of the number 305 were of silver and sixty were of gold. The seven stories were to represent the seven days of the week. Elisha Francis certainly had a different Christmas than he had figured out. Does the new century make you feel and different than what you did in the old? Constable George L. Johnson spent the most of Christmas week in the city, returning to his home at Newcastle last Thursday. Mr. Matthew L. Brown, of Newcastle, passed through the city last Wednesday en route to Franklin to visit his mother at that place. The ball and entertainment given by the Rainier hotel waiters was a rather brilliant affair and was attended by a number of the leading Afro-Americans of the city. Rev. C. C. Holford is visiting his old home in California and is expected to return the first week in January. The report that Mr. Holford had resigned his charge at this point is without foundation, and so far as he knows at present he will serve out his full term. The Seattle Republican The Republican Pub. Co., Publishers OFFICE 714 THIRD AVENUE H. R. Cayton, Editor Susie Revels Cayton, Associate From the looks of Paderewski's master's picture, it appears that the master is just as crazy as is the pupil. That is, so far as general observation goes. Seaton, the South Seattle murderer, may be crazy, nevertheless he should be hanged so that there would be one carzy devil less in the world. The pay roll of the Roslyn coal mines of this state is the largest of the entire Northwest, and pay days there always mean an abundance of free silver in circulation. New Year and New Century can be enjoyed next Tuesday. Crookedness among Seattle's official blue coats has begun to slowly but surely leak out. "Murder will out." Time will celebrate its nineteen hundredth anniversary next Tuesday. It may seem to plod along at a distressingly slow gait, yet no one will deny the fact but that it gets there. The annual swear-offs and the century swear-offs can join issues and next Monday the century swear-offs can swear off for a century, and next Tuesday the annual swear-offs can swear off for another day. A merry Christmas has been enjoyed by the world and its family during the present week, and now a happy New Year is quite in order, which The Seattle Republican hopes you and yours will have to your heart's content. If it be true that "the Bear is with us," then we are in danger of getting badly hugged. It would be much better for the United States to have the Bear stay in his place around the polar seas than to try to introduce him into equitorial society. A woman curfew, if the Times is to be believed, is the desideratum for the morals of the Seattle women. It strikes us that there are a very few women in Seattle that stand more in need of a curfew ordinance than the dope fiend that directs the destinies of the Times. That "We violate no confidence in announcing that Senator Towner, of Minnesota, will retire early in the new year" paragraph seems to have hit the country press hard, as more than a baker's dozen used the very same article last week, and neither quoted from the other. Although the political pile-driven dropped on Adlai Stevenson's toes rather hard at the last election, still he has not had a word of complaint to offer. Unlike Mr. Bryan, Mr. Stevenson has no explanation to offer in the matter. It simply is, with him, and so be it. Liberty and Uncle Sam may be synonymous terms, the one may mean the other and the other may mean the one, but neither the Southern Negro of this country nor the Hawaiians have been able to fathom out their inseparableness. However, we know they are all right. Mr. Zimmerman, the Cincinnati multi-millionaire, after much trouble and worry, did finally succeed in getting a real duke for his daughter to marry, but he has had to pay the duke's creditors over a million dollars for him. Royalty comes high, as do all things that are scarce, but in most cases it is awfully precious. It is gratifying beyond measure to the citizens of Seattle to learn from an official source that work on the great Lake Washington canal is to be begun. This work has been hanging fire for mouths, yea, years, and now that it is soon to be begun it is proof sufficient that perseverance is the chief ingredient of human success. Building in Seattle during the past year was the closing wonder of nineteenth century. No city in the country, barring New York, which has in the neighborhood of 4,000,000 inhabitants, can boast of as great a building record for the past year as can Seattle. Seattle is not only the Queen City of the Northwest, but it is the captain city of the United States. Representative Copeland, of Walla Walla, has added his name to the list of eligibles for speaker of the house of representatives of the seventh legislature of this state. He has had experience, he has some pull, and if it be true that Ankeny is backing him, he has the wherewith to make a vigorous campaign, and we rather think that he will. Spokane's Republican politicians are "about facing" and are getting in line for the 1902 campaign. Republicans in Spokane know how to get together, though they may sometimes get badly skinned, as in the late campaign. Meredith and Wappenstein are just the men to investigate an official "go-between" proposition, for, if all reports be true, both of them have been there many times before. Uncle Sam took Turkey to taw Tuesday in a way that time only can heal the breach. No fool was reported killed on the football field Christmas day, which, to say the least, was remarkable. When Officer Leighton called on Bert Taylor to verify his denials of offering himself as a go-between, it appears to us like unto a wizard calling on a witch as a witness to clear him of witchcraft. Kidnapping millionaire's children to hold for ransom in large sums is a new industry which is finding favor with the "knights of the jimmy." No class of crooks in this country is so deserving of summary justice as the one who will steal another's child and hold the same for ransom. At last Seattle has had a sip of Cedar river water, and so exhilarating was the effect on those who were so favored, that it is reported some of them stood on their heads Christmas day. The Republican never suspected that the waters of Cedar river would produce such an effect on the officials of Seattle. The Seattle Republican hopes that the 57th congress, if not the 56th congress, will take up the Southern elections as soon as possible, if not sooner. It hopes that Congressmen Jones and Cushman will be among the first to champion the measure which reduces the number of representatives, and especially from those states that have now disfranchised a number of their voters. As has been repeatedly said in these columns, the Southern states do not cast one-half as many votes as do the Northern and Western states, and yet they get a representation in congress just the same as though they did do so. The principles of our fathers who fought the mother country on account of "taxation without representation" have been reversed in this instance, and the South is getting representation without taxation. The one is as objectionable as the other, and for that reason congress should see to it at once that no state in this union of states gets representation unless they bear an equal amount of taxation. If such states have persons within their limits who are unfit to exercise the right of suffrage, then certainly those persons are unfit to be enumerated among the citizens of such state. No vote, no count, should be the watchword of the Republicans in congress. While the newspapers of Snohomish county are combining to hold up the rate for publishing legal notices, the papers of King county are striving to see which one of them can publish legal notices the cheapest. Though the law says legal notices must be published in newspapers of general circulation, still we see quite a few notices being published in papers not of general circulation, but rather simple advertising dodgers thrown about the streets. One would-be paper that carries six or seven columns of legal matter has been refused admission into the postoffice department because the paper itself has advertised the fact that it has no subscription price, but would be distributed promiscuously about the streets. It is utterly impossible for newspapers with subscription prices and having offices to maintain to compete with any such publication, and we don't believe that either the spirit or the letter of the law has been carried out when notices are published in such spurious publications. Summons for ordinary tax liens in the Snohomish county papers will be $10 and sheriff's sales $7.50. For the same class of notices the King county papers only $2.50 and $3 are being asked, and sheriff's sales $1.50 and $2, the proprietor of one paper going so far as to advertise that he will do the legal work and publish tax sale certificate notices for $3 and other notices in proportion.

THE Now that the legislature will soon be in session, quite a number of measures are being discussed by various persons and organizations to have passed during the coming session of the seventh legislature of this state. Already the statute books of Washington are overloaded with useless laws, passed for the express purpose of meeting some personal emergency, and from appearances it would seem that after the coming legislature has adjourned there will be quite a number of more worthless laws on the statute books, and especially worthless so far as the general public is concerned. The state needs some wholesome laws enacted, and it is hoped that the legislature will enact them. It also needs quite a number of unwholesome laws which have been enacted heretofore, repealed, and it is also not overlook them. To pass some law because it meets the approval of some half a dozen or more citizens in some remote locality of the state is absolutely silly, and it should not be done, even though the representatives from such districts should refuse to participate in passing necessary legislation for the entire state. candidacy do not state from whence he expects his support, but they declare he has a united delegation from Walla Walla county at his back. This is not saying very much, but it is saying that Mr. Copeland will not only have the united delegation of Walla Walla at his back, but he will have the united effort of Levi Ankeny's barrel at his back, and this is a pretty strong delegation within itself, judging from the past, when Mr. Ankeny used it as a leverage to have himself elected to the United States senate. In the last issue of his paper it was thought by the Ple-maker that there would be but one candidate for the speaker of the house from Eastern Washington, * * * Speaking about the coming legislature, the speaker of the house of representatives embroglio seems no nearer a settlement than it did a week after the election was over, and to add further complications to the already complicated affair, the Hon. Grant C. Copeland, of Walla Walla, has shyed his caster into the contest and will make a fight to secure his election as speaker of the house. He, like others that are candidates for Speakership, has been a member of the house on previous occasions and expects his legislative experience in the past to lend him aid and strength in the coming contest. The papers announcing Mr. Copeland's and that would be the Hon. Harry Rosenhaunt from Spokane. It is will believed by the Pie-maker that he: Rosenhaunt will have a great majority of the delegates from East-Washington in his combination, and will either be elected speaker or be able with his combination to name the man that is elected. Who the man is that he will name is hard to say at present; it may be Mr. Copeland, or it may be Mr. Falkner, or, perhaps, Mr. Albertson, of King, but the indications at present are that it will be Mr. Rosenhaupt, of Spokane. A friend of Mr. Albertson, of King, remarked to the Pie-maker one day this week that in his opinion Mr. Rosenhaupt could never be elected, and that he would realize that early in the fight and would come to Mr. Albertson for the sake of getting at the head of one of the prominent committees, but the friends of Mr. Rosenhaupt declare that he will ask no quarter from any candidate and will go in the fight for the purpose of winning or losing. If he loses he will ask no mercy of the successful candidate, nor will he ask to be placed on any special committees for his or his friends' personal influence in the election of such successful candidate. There is one thing that he will do, and that is abide by the decision of the caucus, and will have no ill-blood against the members of the legislature who do not vote for him in the caucus. He declares he is in it to win, but if he should lose he will be right side up with care just the same. Realizing that there are two dangerous factions in the Republican party, that is, dangerous so far the future success of the Republican party is concerned, a number of the leading Republicans of this city are bending their every energy toward uniting the party in King county, and toward uniting the party throughout the entire state. It was only last week that the Pie-maker quoted from a number of leading Republicans to the effect that a Republican club be formed in King HOUSES AND LOTS FOR SALE AND TO LET WHALLEY & EASTMAN PHONE MAIN 611 5-6 COLMAN BLD 17 Per Cent.

This has met the approval of the most of the leading Republican politicians and many amens have been said during the past week to the spirit and purport of the article. Now, let those gentlemen make the first effort and call a club meeting at an early date of the coming year and century and let them start the Republican party off on the right foot in the new century. When properly organized there is no reason why the Republican party cannot win in King county and the state of Washington in general for the next quarter of a century. The sentiment of the state is overwhelmingly Republican, and grow as it will or may, it is bound to continue so for the next two decades or more. The spirit of getting together which has prompted the move in King county seems to have struck Spokane county about the same time, and the politicians of Spokane moved with the spirit, as the following from the Outburst of that city, speaks for itself on this point of of party reorganization. It is herewith commended to King county Republicans: The political event of the week was the organization of the Spokane County Republican Club on last Wednesday evening. It was the subject of heated discussion before the meeting, of warm debate during the meeting and of decided differences of opinion since the meeting. Some believe the motives of the promoters are selfish and bad, others are convinced the originators desire only what they claim to want—"harmy." The meeting was well attended. Some, however, came only to object. They can not be convinced it is not organized to promote the interests of certain of the prime movers—to be plain—to put certain people into office and to put others in a position where they can secure nominations in the future. Some say as soon as the executive committee is published it will be seen who the men are who are to be favored. On the other hand, the originators find it impossible to name an executive committee which is satisfactory to the different factions. They had about as much trouble to choose officers. To get a man prominent in either faction would never do, and it was almost impossible to find a politician of recognized ability who had not been identified with the factions if he had been a resident of Spokane for any length of time. So finally the choice settled upon Mr. Charles T. Uhlmann of the Palace market. He is a man of unlimited political acquaintance in Spokane and not prominently identified with any faction. But he is an old-time Republican of Tacoma and a man of recognized political ability. If the organizers of the new club could have named their executive committee then and there it would have strengthened their position, for the men they had selected were certainly fair representatives of the factions. Whom the president will name as the executive committee is HOLIDAY GOODS, Denny-Coryell Co., 716 First avenue. Finest Line of Triplicate Mirrors in the City at Lee's Pharmacy not known. The ten men have been selected, but the list may be changed before the next meeting. The men who would have been named at last Wednesday's meeting had they been called for are C. B. Hopkins, A. M. Murphey, J. Z. Moore, Jake Blake, A. S. Wells, M. T. Hartson, Harl J. Cook, Governor Black, W. S. McCrea and Dr. Morrison. One or two of these would be to be left off the committee, therefore there may be changes. But this list of well-known Republicans is the best evidence that has been offered to prove that the whole affair is on the square." The legislature of the state will convene January 14th, and already the members thereof are securing places to stay during the term. The respective members of the legislature are being importured almost unprecedentedly by persons who want to serve in the legislature as clerks and helpers in general. Each of them it is said has received large numbers of letters every day, either from applicants or from persons indorsing the applicants for this and that place. That it has become approving in the extreme is seen on being introduced to one of the members, when he at once asks you if it is a position in the legislature you want, and, if so, you had better file your application and it will be considered in the regular routine. There are instances where persons holding splendid positions that last the year around who are anxious to leave them and go to the legislature to get a position which lasts not to exceed sixty days and more often not more than fifty days. For this they get from three to four dollars a day, sometimes five, which, to say the least, does not not them over two hundred dollars, and out of this they have to pay board and lodging while there, which will take the most of a one hundred dollar bill to cover. It will thus be seen that the person getting fifty dollars a month steadily loses money to quit their position and get work at the hands of the legislature for two months, though they may get at the rate of five dollars per day. Monday, January 14th, will mean a grand change around among county officials at the county court house, not only in King county, but at every court house in the state of Washington. On that day the officers elected last November will take charge of the respective offices they were elected to fill, land they, for the most part, will install new deputies in the various departments in those offices. In King county there was but one county official that was relected to the position that he has filled for the past two years, and that was Assessor Bailey. There will be no changes in his office and things will move on after the 14th just the same as before. HOLIDAY GOODS, Denny-Coryell Co., 716 First avenue.

A corps of high-grade farceurs have been engaged to interpret the play and they will introduce musical numbers, dances and character impersonations, concluding one act with well rendered selections from popular authors. Each member of the cast has been especially selected for their ability for the part assigned them, and the comedy will be handsomely mounted and appropriately costumed. In addition to Mr. Wade the company includes Miss Etta Merris, the versatile soubrette, Mr. E. L. Graves, the laughable comedian, and ten others, to aid in making the fun fast and furious. Seattle Theater. Commencing Sunday, December 30, for four nights and a special matinee Tuesday, January 1, the story of "The Duke's Jester" deals with: the life and love of Cecco and his hidden ambition to secure a lost birthright in order to win the lady with whom he is in love. Also of his sufferings and degradation, hidden under a mask of wit and humor to gain his purpose.; of love, romance, adventure and frolic. The interesting story itself is enriched with the amusing and unusual situations which might occur daily in the HARRY CORSON CARKE AS "TOMKINS" HARRY CORSON CARKE AS "TOMKINS" Seattle Theater next Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday nights. life of a court jester, and is as repleate with fun and humor as it is with interest. The play is conceded to be by far the best in which Frederick Warde has ever appeared and is believed to be his most complete production. Mr. Warde is now under the management of Clarence M Brune, and is meeting with the most successful season of his long career. Mr. Warde's repertoire will consist of standard plays, "Richelieu," "Othello," "Hamlet" and "The Duke's Jester." At the Third Avenue. Commencing next Sunday with a matinee performance, the stage of the Third剧院 theater will be occupied by Russell & Drew's company with a grand revival production of "Quo Vadis," the best historical play of modern times, depicting in a vivid manner the persecutions of the early Christians by Nero, the tyrant emperor of Rome. Among all of the religious plays of modern times none has met with such signal favor as "Quo Vadis." It makes men and women better for having witnessed it, and holds rank among the classes of the city. A special matinee will be on New Year's day. Our...
