The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN NORTHWEST VoL VII., NO 44 As Critically Observed in the United States. IT'S UPS AND DOWNS It Predominates in Cuban Convention—It's Rapid Increase—Plantation Preacher—Negro and the Jew—Philippine Missionaries—Multi-Murderer—Thoughts from Exchanges Commented On. NEGROES PREDOMINATE. ONE HUNDRED MILLION. If what Bishop C. H. Fowler is reported to have recently said as to the natural increase of the Negro race be true, the Negro problem of the United States promises to settle itself in the very near future, and settle itself by the Negro becoming the dominant race of the entire continent. Bishop Fowler is one of the Methodist Episcopal church's leading divines and foremost thinkers, and when he makes a statement it can always be relied upon. He is of the opinion that in one hundred years from now there will be 100,000,000 Negroes in the United States, and that, too, without emigration, and from that number an army of 20,000,000 can readily be raised. "Moses when the bullrushes!" what will the Southern lynchers do with such an army as that to confront them when they start out on one of their nefarious lynching escapes? The article in full has not been seen by the writer hereof, hence it is not known by him by what source Bishop Fowler reaches his conclusion, but he seems to have reached it. Such an increase as that would appear to be pretty rapid, and even more rapid than the statistics of the past would warrant. While the colored race may be rapidly on the increase, it does not seem that it will increase as rapidly as that, Bishop Fowler to the contrary notwithstanding. LEARN TO DO SOMETHING. It is learned from a correspondent of the Colored American that the Tuskagee Institute, at the head of which is the famous educator, Booker T. Washington, has twenty-eight distinct industrial departments, which teach the young men and women trades, the graduation from either of which means for them ready employment and lucrative salaries in most of the states of the South. Nothing should be more gratifying to both the white and the colored folk of this country than to note the fact that the colored folk have awakened to their duty to learn something for their hands to do as well as their heads. While the Tuskagee Institute is not exactly the pioneer in this matter, yet it has done more toward bringing it to a successful climax than all of the other schools established for the benefit of the colored folk in the United States put together. Prof. Washington doubtless fashioned his school after the Hampton Institute of Virginia, but his school has been crowned with its well-known success on account of his own personal efforts, while the Hampton institute is the protege of the government, and is largely supported by it. Prof. Washington has successfully demonstrated to the colored folk that a colored man with pluck and stick-to-tiveness can succeed in even a hostile country. The foundation for continued industrial success among the Negro boys and girls has been laid by him, and it is hoped that every section of the South will teach their boys and girls to do something as well as to think something. To think is primary, but to do is necessary, and the boy who starts out in life with no definite object in view, and with nothing to do except to hunt for soft snaps will either end up in the poor house or in the position of a menial to the man who has learned to do as well as think. What are you going to do? should be propounded to every boy and girl, and each of them should be able to answer that question in some way or manner beneficial to himself. A MULTI-MURDERER A most remarkable Negro criminal has been brought to light in Clarksdale, Miss. he is now in the pesthouse there, suffering with the smallpox, and it is believed that he cannot recover. The Negro himself, laboring under this belief, has confessed to be one of the worst criminals in the country. He claims to have killed Capt. John D. Day, Patrolman Peter J. Lamb and ten other persons, as well as wounding thirty men, women and children in New Orleans from July 24 to July 27, 1900. When arrested he gave the name Levi Charles, but he has a number of aliases and his real name is thought to be Robert Charles, who was responsible for the New Orleans riot last July. when the house in which he and his companions were barricaded was set afire and burned, it was thought that Charles was killed, in fact the police say that his body was identified by his friends, but this man who is dying in the pesthouse at Clarksdale declares that he is the real Robert Charles, the notorious desperado that the police thought to have been killed at the time. NEGRO PLANTATION PREACHER. The pasing of Rev. John Jasper, the celebrated Negro preacher, on account of his world-wide sermon "The Sun Do Move," in his eight-second year, recalls to mind that the Southern Negro of his caliber, calling and age in life are rapidly becoming extinct. Rev. Jasper represented what was commonly known in the South in ante-bellum days as "the plantation Negro preacher," who, without having been taught or tutored in any shape or manner, was able to preach and lecture to the Negroes, and, in many instances, even to the whites, with an understanding and intelligence, which, to say the least, was very remarkable. In every section of the South there was to be found that "remarkable colored preacher," rich in language, eloquent in words and wise in wisdom, who were depended upon by the whites to advise pacificness and patience among the members of his race for their own betterment and who were depended upon by the colored people themselves to impart to them all the necessary knowledge and information on all subjects, whether public or private, financial or otherwise. It is remarkable the amount of tact and talent that those colored preachers displayed at that time, and even at this time, for in many instances they continue to be powers among the colored folk in the directing of their public destinies. Jasper was one of those, and perhaps the most noted of all, for while his sermon is generally looked upon as an amusing prattle, yet it is said by those who have heard him in person talk and discuss that he was a most remarkable man and endowed with a degree of intelligence far above the average man, regardless of his color, education, culture or his nationality and environments. THE WANDERING JEW. That was a rather remarkable review of the Jewish race which appeared in last Sunday's Post-Intelligence, by Richard J. H. Gotthelf. From the reading of it, there is no doubt but that there is another race in this world besides the Negro race that has been subjected to some pretty rough treatment, and, it would appear that that rough treatment, so far as the Jews are concerned, has not wholly impassed as yet, though it is slowly lading away. The Jew, judging from this review, has been made the serf, the slave and the stink-pot for all nations for centuries and centuries. "The Wandering Jew," it is clear to be seen, does not mean that individual Jew that Christ personally reubaked, but is applicable to the entire Jewish race which as been driven into a wandering Jew condition, wandering from pillar to pillar, trying to find some place where they can live and follow the pursuits of peace and happiness peculiar to themselves without being disturbed by other nations and nationalities, which is a hard place for them to find. Practically speaking the hands of the world seem to be against them, and wherever they light some race form of prejudice always crops out against them on the part of the natives. The Jew perhaps is doing better in the United States than in any other country in the world, save Jerusalem, and on account of that fact it is said that pretty near a million Jews that are oppressel in European countries at present are struggling with might and main to raise money enough to come to the United States because they have learned from members of their race who are already here that there is but little prejudice SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1901 against the Jewish race in this country. However, it is most likely that if any great number of Jews come to the United States that anti-Semitic feeling, which runs riot throughout the European countries, will begin to show itself in the United States just the same as there. If there is any race of people in the world that should be willing to go to the assistance of an oppressed race, it certainly should be the Jewish race, and while the Jewish and the Negro races may not have anything in common from a racial standpoint, yet the two should never have any enmity in general from a racial standpoint between them, for they are both oppressed to a certain extent, and they are both numerically weak in comparison with the Anglo-Saxon race. It is quite true that the Negro is the doubly despised one of the two in this country, nevertheless, even in America an anti-Semitic feeling is now apparent, and any move on the part of the Jews to become distinct factors will see the same race prejudice spring up against them as are the Negroes of this country now experiencing in all of the Southern and all of the Northern states: "All coons look alike to the," and likewise will "all Cohens look alike to me." A. M. E. MISSIONARIES. Bishops Turner, Grant and Tyrese of the A. M. E. church, have united in a proposition to send a competent divine of their church to the Philippine islands to organize a branch of the African Methodist Episcopal church in those islands. This can doubtless be looked upon as a missionary move and a missionary move which is quite commendable on the part of that church, but looking at it from a cold-blooded business standpoint, it appears rather impracticable. The natives of those islands do not take to organization or institutions fashioned after the American colored man's ideas, and if the writer has been creditably informed, they do not care to be known as a part and parcel in any shape, form or manner of the American Negro. Whether such a proposition on their part be right or wrong it is theirs to decide and by no means the American Negro's. If those people wish to hold themselves aloof from the American Negro, it is their right and prerogative. They seem to want to do so, hence it is but a mere waste of time, energy and money on the part of the African Methodist Episcopal church to make efforts to organize these people into their church and religion against their will, to say nothing of the undying loyalty of the Filipinos for the Catholic church. Other Protestant churches have failed to interest those people in their religion, and it is more than likely that the ministers sent out by the African Methodist church will as signally fall as has the other Protestants. PUBLIC PRINTER PALMER. The two leading papers of Washington City, published by Afro-Americans are in quite a controversy over the retention and removal of Public Printer Palmer. "The American" openly declares that Palmer is unfriendly to the colored race, while the "Bee" denies the allegation and defies the alligator. If the Bee is to be relied upon Public Printer Palmer has now in his employ in the government printing office over 200 colored folk on the regular payroll and he promises to even increase that number in the near future. Without taking any part one way or the other in the controversy this paper is glad to note the fact that so many colored folk have been given positions in the government printing office, if for no other reason than because under the public printer in the Cleveland administration the most of the colored employees were let out and let out for no other reason than on account of their color. If Mr. Palmer has righted that wrong and is continuing to right it, there should be no sufficient excuse on the part of either of the colored papers to either want or ask his removal. Persons should be employed on account of their fitness for the positions they seek, and not on account of their color. It is noted in a recent issue of the Bee that in a competitive examination for a position in the pubic printing office ten young men took a very rigid examination, and of the ten two were colored. After the papers had been carefully marked and graded, it was found that one of the young colored men had made the highest average, and as a result he was given the coveted position, which meant $4 per day or some $1,300 a year. He was at once put to work by the public printer, not on account of his color, but on account of his fitness which was right and proper, and it is hoped that more colored men will be pire to accomplish just what this young man has done—win an honorable place by their wits and wisdom instead of by their pull and chicanery Andrew Carnegie himself made a no less princely gift nor a less meritorious one, notwithstanding the multiplicity of his gifts, than that made by the family of the late P. D. Armour, in which the Armour Institute of Chicago received $1,000,000 in memory of the late Mr. Armour, who first founded the institution. Accumulated millions can be put to no better use than the educating of the young people of this country, and the Armours have set a most excellent example, and when placed at the disposal of universities of general learning and education it certainly does the greatest amount of good to the greatest number of persons. OBSERVATIONS SHORT PARAGRAPHS Bubonic Plague Spreading — Oil Promises to Become King—Cuba Rejects the Flatt Amendment—Sends a Committee to Washington City—Mormons' Loss in Apostle Cannon's Death. THE PLAGUE SPREADS. From the reports sent out from Washington City, it would seem that the bubonic plague is spreading throughout the world at an alarming extent, as since November 1st last there have been thousands of cases of bubonic plague reported from all parts of the world. It has made its appearance in Cape Colony, London, Paris and many other densely populated communities and countries, and unless the authorities in those communities be able to stamp it out, it will become an epidemic and prove as fatal, perhaps, there as it has in the far East. It is a disease to be dreaded, and it is a disease that the authorities of any country should endeavor to prevent its spread when it has been detected in individual instances. In Bombay, British India, during the week ending February 8th, there occurred 1,770 plague cases and 1,239 deaths, which is an awful condition of affairs. The plague should become an international consideration and study, and a united effort should be made on the part of all nations to check its headway and prevent its further spread, for there is no doubt but that if the leading nations of the world would take this matter up in a diplomatic way, its as well as its spread to some extent at least could be headed off. Regardless of the commercial damage that may be done to any country or community, if such is affected with this loathsome disease, such country should be strictly quarantined against by all other nations and thereby prevent her citizens from carrying it to other places. Already the plague has made its appearance in San Francisco and there is no telling how soon it will be in other points along the Pacific coast, even spreading to our own East. If San Francisco has cases of this disease the health officers of the other cities on the coast should see to it that the proper quarantine be placed about things coming from San Francisco, lest the disease be spread in other cities by such means. IT'S AN OIL AGE. It was but a few years ago that this country was excited from one end to the other over natural gas, and thousands of companies as well as millions of dollars were organized for the purpose of boring into mother earth, in order to find a store room of natural gas by which the wheels of commercial enterprise could be more cheaply moved. While the natural gas craze has to some extent died out, it nevertheless did prove to be a great thing in the business world, and many cities in this country are today being lighted with natural gas, and to some extent the homes therein heated. From all parts of the country come reports today that companies are being organized for the purpose of boring for oil, which is thought to underlie a great many of the sections of this country. To the casual observer it would seem that there is as much probability of finding oil in large quantities underlying certain sections of this country as coal, gold or any other mineral substance. What or who put it there no one seems to know, nor do those boring for it seem to care. The mere fact that it is there is all the care for and they want it. Scientists are in quite a controversy just now as to what is the origin of the great deposits of oil that are being found in many parts of the country at present, some declaring it to be a mineral, others a vegetable, still others a freak of nature; but like gold, silver, coal and other things that are found in the bowels of the earth, its origin is wholly unexplainable by man. No one knows from whence gold came, and no one seems to know from whence oil came, and though scientists may dispute over the freak, yet nature itself remains silent on the subject and will continue to do so. But this can be truthfully termed an oil age. The United States has had her coal age, her natural gas age and now comes her crude oil age. Nature seems to be determined that the world shall not lack for some kind of a combustible material to use as fuel for man's happiness and comfort. APOSTLE CANNON DEAD The most notable man, so far as the Mormon church is concerned, since the death of Brigham Young, has just passed away in the person of Apostle George Q. Cannon, who died in Monterey, Cal. April 12. For many years Mr. Cannon has been the practical head of the Mormon church and has directed its financial affairs almost in detail. Not only has he directed the affairs of the Mormon church, but he has likewise directed to some extent the political affairs of the territory and his wishes as to the recognition the Mormon church should receive at the hands of the politicians, both Republicans and Democrats, was carried out almost to the letter. It was his son, Frank Q. Cannon, that was made one of Utah's first United States senators by the Republicans, and, who, by the way, made a very able representative and doubtless would have been reelected had he not have switched in politics by taking up the Bryan cause and the free silver craze, and he was elected to please Apostle Cannon. Thus from time to time it has been very apparent that the Cannons led by Apostle Cannon, were very important factors in the affairs of the new state of Utah, and he who figured on ruling political affairs in that state without consulting the Cannons, generally counted without his host. Regardless of the religion which Mr. Cannon represented, there is no denying the fact that he was a very able statesman, an accomplished and refined gentleman, and he has reared a family there who partake largely of the propensities in these respects of their father. Mr. Cannon was an Englishman by birth, having been born in Liverpool, England, January 11, 1827. He was converted to the Mormon religion while yet in England, came over and at once became an active worker and leader in its affairs in Salt Lake City. Without regard to religious creeds, political faiths or different nationalities, the dath of Mr. Cannon will be mourned by every man, woman and child in Utah, as well as other states in close proximity thereto. CUBAN CONVENTION. The report that the Cuban convention had decided not to accept the Platt amendment, which was passed by the United States senate a few days prior to its recent adjournment, will cause many of the leading statesmen of this country to stop and consider, as it may mean that the United States is on the verge of war with the Cubans, thus having to do what the Spanish tried for so many years to do—whip the Cubans into subjection. The inhabitants of the West India islands and all of the South American countries always appear rather war incined, and will take up arms to fight at the slightest pretext. The Cubans may feel that this country is attempting to make vassals of titem, instead of independent citizens, and having spent so many years in constant warfare for absolute freedom there is no doubt in the world but that they will go to war even with the United States before they will surrender one charisilla hope of freedom. However, it is hoped that the better judgment of the Cubans will prevail and that the affairs will be amicably settled. The Cubans will be free and at the same time the United States maintain her dignity and protectorate over the islands. The States to do but to maintain the protectorate over the islands, not only for the present, but for all time to come, if for no other reason than to prevent European powers from getting the same foothold in those islands as did Old Spain have for so many years. The Monroe doctrine covers Cuba and all the islands in that section the same as it does South America, and when once the power of European countries has been broken at any point in American waters it should be broken for all time to come, and the United States should stand by the proposition, if it has to go to war to do so. If Cuba is wise she will accept the proposition of freedom as laid down by the United States government and be a friend to a nation that wants to be a friend to it. IRISH LANGUAGE At a meeting of the Irish Literary Society Mr. F. A, Fahy gave an interesting lecture on "The Irish Language Movement." The Irish language, he said, belonged to the Celtic group of languages, and had been spoken for more than 2,000 years. It had a vocabulary of about 80,000 words, nearly all home made, and was extremely rich in native idioms. It flourished until the commencement of the nineteenth century, when the process of decay set in. The so-called national system of education founded in Ireland in 1831 was opposed to the teaching and speaking of Irish in schools—in fact, the nation at schools had been declared the grave of the Irish language. The famine of 1846-47 and the rush of immigrants from Ireland to the United States and other parts of the world had also contributed to the ruin of the old tongue. The result was that, while in 1831 some 3,000,000 persons in Ireland spoke the native language, in 1891 only about 800,000 persons, or one-fifth of the population, were abe. to do so. During the last century there had been a steady growth in Ireland of English thoughts, manners, customs and ideas, and the Irish people had abandoned the ways of their fore fathers and taken to their hearts those of the Saxon—London Chronicle. The late Collis P. Huntington has been made the hero of a dime novel entitled "The Octopus." Who would have thought that Mr. Huntington would gain such fame and notoriety as this after his death? None of the remarkable financial feats that he accomplished while alive can compare with this fame that he has unexpectedly gained at the hands of a dime novelist. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 ICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS QUEEN CITY'S Weekly Snapshop Report and General Roundup. COMING HER WAY Clise-Smith Shipbuilding Concern —Mrs. George's Death Discussed —Martin V. B. Stacy's Life Worthy of Emulation — Ex-Congressman Could Not Stand Financial Reverses—Police Matron Taylor. The announcement that the Globe Transportation Company, with a capital stock of $100,000,000, had been formed in New Jersey with the direct intention of doing business on the Pacific coast and more especially in Seattle, was quite a surprise to the citizens of this city. The leading personages of this company are: W. M. Nottingham and L. C. Smith, of Syracuse, New York, and J. W. Clise, of this city. It is the intention of the organizers of this company to enter extensively into the ship building business in and about Seattle, and when they shall have begun active operations it will mean that hundreds of men will be employed therein and thus create a bucket brigade for Seattle such as no other city on the Pacific coast can boast of. The city that is strong in bucket brigades is always the thriving city, and the city in which business is always exceedingly strong and active. This new enterprise, taken in connection with the Moran Bross.' enterprise, assures Seattle of being the greatest manufacturing center of the Northwest. MRS. GEORGE KILLED Though a coroner's jury found that no one was to blame in the accidental killing of Mrs. J. R. George at Lake Washington last Saturday by a runaway team, nevertheless public opinion is much divided on the subject and it is believed by many that the team was leit unhitched by the driver thereof. Unhitched teams have caused so many fatal accidents in this city in the past that the city council passed an ordinance imposing heavy fines upon persons who leave their teams unhitched, and many of the teamsters have been fined for the offense, and any disposition on the part of the teamsters to override the ordinance the citizens are ready toensure the aggressor in the severest terms. Any driver caught leaving his team without hitching it to something which will prevent it from taking flight and running away should be doubly fined. If this lady met her death on account of the carelessness of the driver of the team which ran over her, and trampled her to death, then somebody should be responsible for it, not that The Republican wants to see a hard ship worked on anybody, to convince those having charge of teams that it is their duty to securely fasten them before leaving them. The owner of the team, if it was the carelessness of the driver that caused the lady's death, should be responsible in personal damages to the family of the lady who was killed by his runaway team. GOOD MAN GONE. The pioneer residents of this city seem to be passing away unusually fast this season, as already since January, 1901, many deaths among them have been reported, not only in this city but all over the state. One of the most notable of the pioneers who have recently passed away was Mr. M. V. B. Stacy, who for many years was one of Seattle's most noted real estate dealers. Mr. Stacy died at Green River Hot Springs last Saturday, which was quite a shock to the many persons who know him in this city, and was buried under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity in this city last Wednesday afternoon. The remains were followed to their final resting place by a host of old pioneer friends and acquaintances. Speaking about Mr. Stacy to a large number of old pioneers, all were of one opinion as to him being one of God's noblemen. "The greatest compliment that I can pay him," said an old pioneer, "is that his word was his bond, and if he would give you his word to do a thing or to give a certain sum of money or to make a transfer of property, it was just as good as his deed, or his check, or the cash. Before the transaction was closed he might see that he had made a bad bargain, but he never changed, but stuck to his bad bargain. He was one of the most reliable real estate men that ever walked the streets of Seattle." The same strain of kindly words were heard during the entire week, not only from pioneers, but from persons who more recently have had dealings with him. He lived a most commendable life, and one that most young men should feel proud to take as an example to fashion their lives after. Mr. Stacy never had an ambition to "skin a man," as the vulgar term runs, but his ami- (Continued on page 3.) The Seattle Republican The Republican Pub.

Mrs. Nation now knows Missouri is not Kansas. From the numerous newspaper reports it would appear that Seattle is to eventually be the great "hill" of the Northwest. Though this is truly considered the age of "trusts," yet most men without money find it a rather difficult matter to get trust. Pomp and pomposity promise to predominate at the coronation of King Edward, which is to take place at Westminster Abbey the end of next June. No wonder there is such a demand for new policemen in the various cities of this country, when, according to official reports, 47,107 natives left Ireland during the year 1900. Criminals of New York can no longer chant "sing-sing" as a rest from their labor, by night and by day, for no more has that state a prison known as Sing Sing; it has given way to Ossining. --- Is not the Daily Bulletin losing its usefulness when it begins to take sides with the local factions in this city? It should not be a paper of factional differences, but one of facts and figures which all factions can take and rely upon. --- It is rather remarkable that Aguinado, who a prisoner, should be buying jewelry on an extensive scale, but perhaps he is going to put himself on exhibition as a museum freak, and thereby earn easy money for his future maintenance. According to the late ruling of the postoffice department, after June 30th next, the employees of the postoffice throughout the country will have shorter hours per day to work, which fact is very gratifying to the postoffice employees in general. It begins to look as though Seattle is soon to become a great ship building center. The Clise-Smith concern recently organized promises to be a strong competitor to the Moran Bros. concern, which already has a $3,000,000 government ship building contract. Chief United States Statistician O. P. Austin is of the opinion that in one hundred years the United States will have a population of 300,000,000; Bishop Fowler of the Methodist Episcopal church, is of the opinion that of that number 100,000,000 will be Negroes, thus making one-third of the population of this country persons descended from Africans. "A newspaper editor should be a person of opinion and not a trimmer," remarks an exchange. That is true; but if he is a person of opinions and expresses them in the columns of his paper, he will not be a person of money and that, too, on account of his opinions, for the editor who has an opinion and expresses it always goes hungry, while the trimmer lives in the lap of luxury. An exchange is of the opinion that the man or men who intend to start a new daily paper in Portland, Oregon, in opposition to the Oregonian of that city "are misguided enthusiasts." We wonder if the same significant term will apply to those persons who are going to establish another daily paper in Seattle; but we guess not, owing to the fact that he Seattle paries have millions at their back. A constable at Tenino was recently fined twenty dollars for hunting out of season, and a number of the members of the local rod and gun club of this county, the prime principle of the organization being the prevention of the killing of game out of season, was fined by one of the county justices small sums cach for hunting out of season. Such showings on the part of those supposed to look after the enforcement of the law do not appear well on paper. There is no doubt of the fact that South Africa is one of the greatest mineral districts in the world. And since 1887 millions upon top of millions of dollars' worth of gold and silver, as well as diamonds and other precious metals, have been shipped from the Transvaal country. No wonder the British have made such desperate efforts to wrest the country from the Boers, and, upon the other hand, the Boers have fought so persistently to hold the same. --- A student of Ann Arbor is suspected to have a genuine case of bubonic plague. Here is a case of "when Greek meets Greek," and the bubonic plague has got a terrible case on its hands to overcome the usual student plague which prevails in all well established colleges among the students. Now, if the bubonic plague will only step over to West Point and tackle the hazing plague, it is very likely that the leading military school of our country will be the better therefrom.

PARKER, General Agent, 151 Yesler Way, Seattle Wash. E. R. Butterworth & Sons UNDERTAKERS AND EMBALMERS Telephone Main 949 428, 1483 Third Avenue SEATTLE The report that Levi Ankeny wanted to harmonize things in his own political faction in this county, which according to current reports, have fallen into bad condition, is like unto locking the barn door after the horse has been stolen. He may be able to harmonize the differences that now exist in what was formerly known as his political faction in this county, but it is not generally believed that he can. It is almost an impossibility to bring about political harminy between Ben Grosscup and George U. Piper, and, strive as hard as Mr. Ankeny will or may, he will find that he has got an up-hill pull on his hands. Had Mr. Ankeny been consistent in the last legislature, that is, those members who were under his influence, there is no doubt but that he would have strengthened himself in King county and other parts of the state, but instead of strengthening himself he has caused factional differences within his own faction, and now he has those to fight the same as his political enemies. Some unexpected coup may put Mr. Ankeny into the senatorial chair from the state of Washington at Washington City, but it begins to look now as though his is a hopeless case and his senatorial prospects, like those of Mr. Corbett, of Oregon, have passed to the great beyond, and he can soon, if not at present, sing "Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these; it might have been." % % % Lee B. Hart, the celebrated Democratic politician of King county, who so ardently championed the cause of the re-election of Gov. John R. Rogers, and who was subsequently given a position at the hands of the governor for his loyalty, has returned the same to the governor with thanks. According to street rumors serious political differences have arisen between the governor or the Harts, and in future war to the knife may be expected from the Harts on any political ambition the governor or his friends may aspire to. This likewise applies to the ambition of Senator Turner to return to the United States senate in 1903. If the Harts fight Senator Turner in King county and in the other counties where the Hart influence is very strong, it will be almost impossible, even though the Democrats are in the majority in the next legislature, to re-elect Senator George Turner, for the Harts are acknowledged fighters, and fighters that do not take water, even though probable defeat stares them in the face. % % % Speaking about the re-election of Senator Turner, prompted a political quidnure to remark to the Pie-maker one day this week that he firmly believed that it was Senator Turner's intention to switch back to the Republican party at an early date. It may not be until after the election in 1902, but it will be before the legislature convenes in 1903, if things are ripe for such a change. There seems to be a political understanding between certain Republicans in this state and Senator Turner, and in case the Republicans win the next legislature, but the Democrats have a strong membership, Senator Turner is to announce himself as a reconverted Republican, return to the fold, and taking with him his Democratic contingency, and then secure enough disgruntled Republican votes to guarantee his re-election. Should he accomplish this he would at once assume the leadership of the Republican party in this state, which very thing he so long desired while a Republican but failed to accomplish. There may be some good, sound logic in the above statement, but the Pie-maker is of the opinion that with the Harts and their influence fighting the re-election of Senator Turner, he would not be able to carry many of the Democrats into the Republican camp, even if it was only for the momentary purpose of reelecting him to the United States senate, though it may be done. % % % So S. H. Piles, of Seattle, is talked of for United States senator for King county, eh? Mr. Piles is very well known and spoken of as good senatorial timber in and for Seattle, but here he's not known not even a little bit, except, perhaps, when his name is heard in reference to the poor management in the late campaign of the governorship. If his name is not heralded any more than ws Mr. Fink's in these parts during the campaign, then indeed can he serve Seattle continuously twelve years, or more—and still be young, quite so—but not at Washington. There are others in the state who have not been put up for office so many times that they had to be "turned down" several times, as in Mr. Piles' case, that are very competent and very deserving. Out of these, when the time is ripe, doubtless will be sung the name of a man whose name begins with a capital not so far along in the You don't know what is the very best possible deal to be made on a piano until you have visited our piano department. We are excellent showing of standard makes and styles, and we greatly extraordinary prices. Credit is given on terms to suit your convenience. alphabet as P.—Puyallup Independent The Puyallup Independent is quite mistaken as to Mr. S. H. Piles having been repeatedly a candidate for office. Since Mr. Piles has been in the state of Washington he has never asked for a political office nor would never consider the proposition of taking one. He has been a free lance in politics and has done about as he pleased when it came to political favor both in and out of the party. He has been a lifelong Republican, but has had his ideas as to which faction in the Republican party should prevail. Some way or other Mr. Piles has always been successful in his efforts, he has never championed the cause of a candidate in his party lines but what such candidate was successful in the convention. Though he was an ardent admirer of Tom Humes in the past he decided to throw his strength against him in the last campaign, when Mr. Piles supported him, Mr. Frink was successful. The proposition to make Mr. Piles United States senator, the Pie-maker is of the opinion, is no machine is of the part of Mr. Piles himself, but a movement on the part of the leading Republicans of this city, who believe that the perfection of such move would mean the uniting of Republican factions of this city, which are doing more toward detaining the Republican party than the Democratic party. Owing to the fact that Mr. Piles has for the most part fought for a different faction than has The Republican, it has seriously differed from him in the past, but if his candidacy means the harmonizing of Republican factions in King county, why harmony goes, so far as it is concerned. It is utterly impossible for King county to name a candidate for the United States senate that will please Pierce county, even though King county should name a candidate outside of King. The Republicans of King county do not intend to trouble themselves to any great extent as to whether the Pierce county Republicans are satisfied with the candidate that they may select for the United States senate, and this fact had as well be understood by the Independent and all other Pierce county papers now as later on. tion was to do the fair thing by all men, which should be the highest ambition of every man. DIED FOR MONEY. When Melvin R. Baldwin sent a leaden messenger of death through his brain one day this week in this city on account of financial reverses it plainly showed what an awful influence money wields over the mind of the average citizen in this country at present. Though ripe in years, rich in experience and having enjoyed the confidence of his fellow citizens to the extent of being elected as a member of the lower house of congress from the state whence he hailed, Minnesota, held other honorable positions at the hands of the president of the United States, yet this man cast it all aside, forgot it all and took his own life in a fit of momentary despondency, because, forsooth, he had suffered financial reverses. It seems that at the present time man has no higher ambition than to amass fortunes, to be the director of some great and powerful commercial combinations and for no other reason than that they may pose before the general public as multi-millionaires. If misfortunes intervene in their efforts to accomplish such, it at once brings on a state of mental collapse, which is never set at rest until such a disappointed mind becomes its own personal destroyer. What a pity that man does not arrive at some stage of life when his mind will be at ease and free from the hungry desire to accumulate fortunes, and especially when, as in this case the man had reached three score years or more. MRS. TAYLOR DEAD. The city of Seattle will look a long time before it will find another police matron so conscientious and consistent to the duties thereof as was Mrs. Emma Taylor, who had held that position as police matron for the past eight years, who died at her residence last Tuesday evening. Mrs. Taylor has not only been a police matron, but she proved herself a most excellent type of Christian missionary and home rescuer of fallen women and girls as well as administering angel, and many are there who are now enjoying happy and comfortable homes, surrounded by their husbands and children, who were snatched from probable ruin by the friendly solicitations and prompt actions of Mrs. Taylor. Her motherly advice and kind treatment have caused many a poor girl to return to her home and be a lady and all of these will prove bright stars in her crown, now that she has taken on the form of the immortal and been claimed by Him who doeth all things for the best. MOCK MODESTY. The round-up on the part of the police department in this city of the clairvoyants, the quack doctors and the massage treaters, with the view of purifying the moral atmosphere of this city by running them out of business, is mock modesty of the worst type, and certainly a mock morsel thrown to the moral element of this city for the relentless war it has been waging on the vices that are so prevalent, therein. Just why the authorities should feel called upon to arrest and to drive out the class of women above mentioned and permit every saloon and gambling house that is running in the city to run contrary to law is the question that cannot be explained by any common-sense citizen. It is probably true that that class of humanity that is being rounded up by the police is a class who live by fleeing the unwary, but is not the same true of those larger vices that are permitted to run unmolested? Can it be possible that a few women who give masage treatment and who pretend to be able to cure the sick and the afflicted are more polluting to the moral atmosphere of this city than the great number of saloons that run twenty-four hours in a day and 365 days in a year, and the gambling houses and other resorts where vice and fleecing are practiced on a wholesale order. The injunction of the Bible about plucking the mote out of thy brother's eye, but not being able to observe the beam in your own eye, is very applicable in this instance. The authorities are straining at a few gnats and yet swallowing camels and elephants in lump lots. If a crusade on vice is to be made, why not make it all down the line? Why not clean out all forms of vice that are running contrary to the laws of this city and state? It is wrong to crush out smaller vices and then permit the more ostentatious vices to run at pleasure. LEGAL NOTICES IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for King County, T.

AMUSEMENTS AT THE THEATERS Frawley Company The Frawley Company at the Grand Opera House enters upon its third week with a matinee performance Sunday afternoon. The play which is to be given during the first four days of the week is William Gillette's masterpiece, "Secret Service," the best military drama ever written. An especially interesting feature of the production is the appearance of T. Daniel Frawley for the first time during the present engagement. He will be seen in the role of Captain Thorne, a part for which he is eminently fitted by both talent and temperament. The remainder of the cast will be exactly the same as when the piece was last sen here. "Secret Service" will be taken off after Wednesday night, and on Thursday "His Wife's Father" will take the stage and hold it for the rest of the week. This piece is one of the Crane successes which Mr. Frawley has secured for Western territory. Jessie Norton. The Elleford Company, which is headed by Jessie Norton, and which plays an engagement of one week at the Third Avenue theater, opening with Sunday's matinee, April 21st, has broken all records for attendance in nearly all the principal cities of California, Colorado, Nevada and Arizona, during their our this season.

The repertoire for the week is, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, "Carmen," an exciting romantic drama, "Wednesday," "The Adventure of Nell Gwynne," a verse novel of Nell city, and one in which Miss Roberts has been stinted praise for her fine rendition of the character; Thursday and Friday "A Suit of Sable," and "Camille" for the closing performances Saturday matinee and night.
