The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VII., NO. 47 COLORED RACE Under Critical Observation Here and There. ITS UPS AND DOWNS Favored by President McKinley- Tuskegee Opens a Bank Thomas au Imposter-Disfran- thisement Denounced - Blind Tom is Coming-Major Taylor Lionized-Want a Negro Exhibit- Neckiney's Good Advice COLORED FOLK PLEASED. The social conditions of New Orleans being of such a nature that it was impossible for the president of the United States to be entertained by all of the citizens at the same time, it should have been very gratifying to the colored folk of that city when the president gave to them his first consideration and attention on his arrival thereto. The president and his traveling companions were highly e'entertained by 1,000 colored school children, who sang "Hail to the Chief" and saluted him with flowers and flags. Subsequently he was the guest of honor of from between 5,000 and 10,000 colored folk at a public reception, and brief speeches were made by the entertainers and responded to by the president. The entertainment of the school children given to the president at that place has been one of the very pleasant features of his tour thus far, and it is one that he himself says he will probably pleasantly remember the balance of his life. TUSKEGEE'S NEW BANK. And now comes the famous Tuskegee institution with a new feature of its industrial life, the establishment of a regular bank in connection with the school. According to a report sent out by one of the students, the students and teachers of the institution patronized the bank to the extent of $1,232.30 in deposits during the month of March. No department connected with this famous institution of Southern enterprise will be fruitful of better results toward the elevation of the young colored folk than this banking department. Instead of the young people vieing with each other to see which one can spend the most money frivolously, they will seek to outstrip each other in the largeness of their respective hank accounts. It will not only have a telling effect upon the students, but it will likewise imbue the teachers of the county and state, as well as the farmers thereabouts to hide their earnings, at least that part for which they have no immediate use, away in this bank for safe keeping. And thus will this school and its master become a stronghold around which the various dissenting elements of the Negro race of that section will gather, and form a nucleus from which they may move grandly on to success, not only in the section where this school is located will this be true, but all over the United States and even in foreign lands will its influence be eventually felt. THOMAS RUN DOWN. If what John Edward Bruce, who has been looking up the record of William Hannibal Thomas, the famous book writer, says be true, then that man Thomas, who so willfully, audaciously and with malice aforethought maligned the colored race, is the most notorious scoundrel unhung. In speaking about Thomas' book to a prominent man of this city not long since, he was led to remark: "Thomas is either crazy or a fiend incarnate. I have just finished reading his book and likewise just finished reading the autobiography of Booker T. Washington, and I must confess I never read two books on the same subject that differed so widely. If Thomas is not a disgrace to the twentieth century civilization, then a human being cannot be that. His scurrilous book finds readers, perhaps numerous readers, nevertheless it stands as a printed monument of how low a human being can fall in deprivacy and yet exist among people. On the other hand, Mr Washington's book is one that can be read with interest and pleasure as it neither portrays glittering success nor wanton deprivacy among the people whom he is struggling to elevate." A NEW RICHMOND. Unexpectedly the colored folk of old Virginia have found a new champion to oppose the proposed disfranchisement act, which will be voted on in that state this year, and this new champion is none other than exGovernor Charles T. O'Farrall, who though bitterly opposed in many instances to the colored man being considered an equal to the white man, yet is a stickler for the preservation of the constitution of his country. No man was more opposed to the passage of the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States than was Mr. O'Ferrall, but who, now that it is passed, says he believes it should be maintained and protected, not only in Virginia, but in every state in the union. "The constitution has made citizens of the Negroes, and the constitution should protect that citizenship, regardless of where it is found, and regardless of the circumstances and conditions under which it is found." Thus the Negro has accidentally stumbled upon a new-found Richmond as to his constitutional rights, and it may be possible that the stand taken by this Richmond will induce others equally as influential in that state to come to the defense of the constitution and thus prevent a class of people from being disfranchised and the constitution of the United States, the most sacred document that was ever penned or printed in America, to be protected from further flagrant abuse. BLIND TOM LIVES. From a reliable exchange published in the East, it is learned that Blind Tom, the famous Negro pianist, is not only not dead, but is well and has lost none of his cleverness in manipulating the keys of a piano. According to this exchange he is still under the protection of Mrs. Bethune, his legal guardian, and next season she will be on the road with Tom again, giving performances as of yore. Blind Tom is doubtless the most wonderful musical freak that was ever born, and there is unquestionably no doubt but that he is the most wonderful musical freak that has ever been heard in public, and the announcement that he will again electrify audiences with his wonderful musical talent and ability will be received with much favor on the part of the general public and no one will fail to hear him when he plays in their immediate vicinity. For a long time the right of possession to Tom was a legal complication, but it was finally settled in favor of Mrs. Bethune, who is the surviving member of that famous Virginia family, and she keeps a zealous guard over him. Aside from his musical ability, the man seems to be nothing more or less than a common idiot, and, if he was not cared for by some tender hands, the lunatic asylum would be his portion. While this lady may have, and undoubtedly will make considerable money out of Tom's musical ability, no one seems to be more entitled to it than she, as her family and herself have cared for him since his earliest existence, and not only cared for him, but likewise cared for Tom's relatives, who are comfortably supported out of his earnings accruing from his work on the stage. TAYLOR IS A WONDER. Major Taylor, the bicycle wonder, who has won fame beyond measure in Paris by defeating all comers for the world's bicycle championship, is the hero of the hour in France and Europe in general. He has met and defeated the world's most noted cycle champion, and the black American is followed about the streets, by cablegram dispatches, by admiring crowds just as was Sullivan in his makiest prize-fighting days, or was Corbett after defeating Sullivan in the memorable New Orleans fistic battle. There is one remarkable thing about Major Taylor, and that is, he is in no wise given to dissipation of any kind, class or description, though a champion racer, and though he races for a living, he is almost a model Sunday school scholar, absolutely refusing to race on Sundays, to bet on races or cards or games of any kind, and to use intoxicant liquors in any shape, form or manner. A striking contrast can be drawn between the man he defeated and himself, for his opponent is reported to be a lushen and an all-round good fellow in the common acceptation of that word, both in France and America. THAT NEGRO EXHIBIT. Whether right or wrong, a number of the leading colored folk of Missouri and a few of the adjoining states have decided to have a separate exhibit at the Pan-American exposition. Such a determination, if seems, is almost an eleventh hour conclusion, and it seems almost impossible at present to get a creditable exhibit to the exposition in time for it to serve the purpose that its promoters desire it to do. From an individual standpoint on the part of the editor hereof such an exhibit is wholly unnecessary, but, if those colored folk who are interesting themselves in the affair, feel that they want it and are willing to spend their money, time and talent in the collection of the same, it is their business affair, and no journal, newspaper nor periodical published by a colored man should feel called upon to place any obstacles in the way of them carrying out their proposed plans. Permit every man, woman and child do whatever they feel it is their duty and their wish to do and there will be less race friction and more unity of purpose on the part of the colored folk of this country. So far as the far West is concerned, it has little to offer as an exhibit emanating from colored folk, and yet there are colored folk in the far West doing equally well financially and otherwise as any to be found in the far East. Such an exhibit on the Pan-American grounds would not be overlooked by the thousands and thousands of visitors who will be on the grounds during the lifetime of the exposition for the express purpose of sightseeing. GREAT IS McKINLEY. More lofty ideas as to the colored race's success were never uttered than those which fell from President McKinley's mouth in Texas last week in speaking to the school children of the Texas State Normal for colored folk. Among other things, he used the following words of encouragement to them: "What we want more than anything else, whether we be white or whether we be black—what we want is to know how to do something well. If you will just learn to do one thing that is useful better than anybody else can do that one thing, you will never be out of a job. And all employment is honorable employment. The race is moving on, and has a promising future before it. It has been faithful to the government of the United States. It has been true and loyal and abiding. "Fellow-citizens, always observe the law. In our recent war with Spain your race displayed distinguished qualities of gallantry upon more than one field. You were in the fight at El Caney and San Juan Hill. the brave black boys helping to emancipate the oppressed people of Cuba, and your race is in the Philippines, carrying the flag, and they have carried it stainless, in honor and in glory. "The last word I would leave with you is to be true and right to homes to family, to yourselves and true to God." DEMOCRATIC NUISANCE. If the Post-Intelligencer loves the colored men as it does, why not invite them to the home of the editor, give them the responsible positions on the paper, fire the white men, and then see how long a Northern community will support your paper.—Tacoma Sun-Democrat. In advocating equal justice for the colored man, the same as the white man, the Post-Intelligence is not advocating social equality for the two races. There is a striking difference between public equality and social equality, and the man who is not competent to distinguish the difference between the two is himself not a good citizen, and, if a law-abiding citizen, he is by no means an intelligent citizen. Perhaps the Tacoma Sun-Democrat would be just as ready to employ colored men to fill the responsible positions on its paper as would the Post-Intelligence or any other paper, or any other business concern as to that matter, if colored persons were able to fill the positions better and more creditibly than they are now being filled by white persons. There is a lesson for the colored man himself to learn from this undue criticism emanating from a rawhide and bloody bones Democratic paper, and it is this, whatever the colored man does he must do it better than any one else, if he expects to be employed as are other applicants. The words of President McKinley to the colored (Continued on Third page WEEK'S WORK That Have Transpired During Past Seven Days. CURRENT COMMENTS Much Money for Mexico-Philippines to Have a Civil Government-Sunday Saloon Closing in Kansas City-Remember Old Pioneers-Women in Government Offices-Florida's Fatal Fire-Boy Detectives. MEXICO WANTS MONEY. Like Alexander of old, the millionaires of Chicago are longing for more financial worlds to conquer, and, in their casting about in quest of such, they have discovered that Mexico, though ancient and old, is a splendid field in which to operate, and it is learned from Chicago papers that millions of dollars of money belonging to the capitalists of that city will be sent to Mexico with the view of developing its industries as well as its mineral and vegetable resources. Even the Mexican officials, though for the most part unfriendly to the United States, are not averse to such a developing process so far as their country is concerned, and have granted valuable concessions to those adventurers with the view of stimulating them to early action. There is no doubt but that such a course will bring about closer business relations between the United States and Mexico, and it is to be hoped that the work will be begun by the Chicago millionaires at once, or as soon as convenient. A CIVIL GOVERNMENT. The Associated Press dispatches from Manila bearing date of May 3, announce to the world that a civil government had been established in the island of Luzon and a similar form of government would be extended to other islands as soon as the Philippine commission could arrange for it. The population of Manilla, according to the census just completed, is 244,732 souls. The capturing of Aguinaldo and the establishing of a civil government in the Philippines are swift witnesses that conditions there are rapidly assuming a normal condition, with symmetry and shape, and that those islands will soon be as peaceably governed as the islands of our own country which are in close proximity thereto. There is no doubt in the mind of the average American but that a splendid form of civil government will yet come out of the Philippine chaos, and that the day is not far distant when this country will be as proud of the Philippine islands as it is today of Alaska, the purchase of which was as bitterly opposed as was the acquisition of the Philippines, and the Filipinos will be equally proud of this country. SUNDAY SALOONS CLOSED. It is a mistake pure and simple to say that good wholesome agitation is not fruitful of most excellent results. Owing to the peculiar kind of agitation that was brought into existence by Mrs. Carrie Nation, even a city as badly steeped in sin and vice as was and is Kansas City, an edict has gone out from the mayor declaring that all saloons must be closed on Sundays. Immediately after Mrs. Nation's crusade in that city, for which she was fined $500 by the trial justice, the preachers thereof began to look into the moral conditions therein, and then and there begun a fight to have saloons closed on Sundays, and are now successful in the effort. Mayor Reed has just issued a positive order that all saloons must be closed tight on Sundays. This is a great victory for Mrs. Nation, the preachers and the Law and Order League, not only of Kansas City, but all over the country. OREGON'S MONUMENT At the little village of Champeog, thirty miles south of Portland a granite monument on May 2 was raised by the citizens of Oregon in honor and memory of the fifty-two founders of the provisional government of that state in 1843. Those are historic grounds and bring to mind great stirring historic facts, facts in which the government of this country are deeply concerned, for perhaps had not these pioneers rushed out there and early establish- ed a provisional government with allegiance to the United States, not only Oregon, but all of the Northwest would now be a part of the British domain instead of prosperous states of the United States. Too much cannot be said in commemoration of the efforts on the part of those pioneers in saving Oregon to the United States, and the latter-day citizens of Oregon have done well in erecting a monument that will be a landmark to generations unborn of the patriotic work of their noble sires and government protectors. THE WOMEN EMPLOYES. This paper does not view with alarm the increasing numbers of women being employed in the office departments of our government at Washington City. According to a recent report compiled by a government accountant, the women have increased within the past thirty years at a ratio of 33 per cent. as employees of the government, and taking this as a basis, he figures it out, that by 1960 every position in the office department of the government will be filled by women. Grant it that they will, even then, where is the danger in that? If the hand that rocks the cradle governs the world indirectly, why cannot the same hand govern it directly? But in the women filling the various government minor offices, they are not ruling the government, but are simply pieces of machinery in the great machine of government mechanism, and only do what they are directed to do by some lord and master. If women did not render just as valuable service to the government as men, there might still be reasons for complaint along these lines, but from reports sent out, the contrary is generally shown. The women are even more dutiful, more careful and painstaking than the men in similar positions, and for the most part more trustworthy and less liable to be mixed up in government steals than are the men. If all this be true, then it would be better for the country if all its employees were women instead of men. CITIZENS OF INDIA. Total British India..231,085,133 JACKSONVILLE'S GREAT FIRE. Jacksonville, Florida, can boast of having had the fire of the year, at least for the year up to the present time, which occurred last Friday, May 3. It is estimated by the insurance companies that not less than $15,000,000 worth of property was burned on that occasion, which property covered a territory of 130 blocks in the very heart of the city. The fire raged for ten hours, and the departments were wholly unable to cope with it until it had completely exhausted itself for a lack of material to further consume. Over 10,000 persons are homeless on account of it, and many fatal causalties are reported. The fire was a result of a defective wire in a factory, which, owing to the highly inflammable material with which the building was constructed, soon got beyond the control of the fire fighters, and a favorable wind fanned the flames so that the entire business portion of the city was soon in a heap of ruins. Public and private donations for the relief of the sufferers have begun to pour in, and soon Jacksonville will have risen, "phoenix-like," into a brand new city. BAD FOR THE BOYS It is learned from a Chicago paper that detectives are being made out of young boys in that city, who are to spot criminals and to hunt them down to their places of vice, the boys not being suspected by the criminals, as would men in a similar avocation. To make a detective out of an innocent young boy is practically the same as making a criminal out of him. A new world dawns upon his mind and he is thrown in contact with things that he never dreamed of before, and from a detective it will be but a short step and a near cut to a criminal. This is not intended to be a wholesale accusation against detectives, but it is intended to discourage the proposed plan of making detectives out of boys who ought to be at home with their parents and learning useful trades, instead of legally lounging about places of vice for the express purpose of spotting thieves, but who spot more kinds of vice to practice than they do criminals. The old adage that "it takes a thief to catch a thief" is quite applicable in this case, and the parents of such children should consider the proposition of making detectives out of them long and well before they ever assent to the same. AN ITALIAN INFLUX: It is estimated that over 40,000 Italians have already come to this country within the present year, which seems to be the largest influx of Italian immigrants in the same length of time ever known in the history of this country. While in the past this class of emigrants have stopped in the Northern states it is noted that they are now seeking the more sunny climes of the South, and it is learned from one of the leading Southern papers that the Italians are rapidly becoming expert operators in the cotton fields, cultivating and gathering the same with equal aptness to the native Negro workmen. In Louisiana Italians are being used as an experiment on the cotton farms, and, if they prove as successful, and it looks as if they will, it is the intention of the planters to import them in great numbers for that kind of work. Then again the Italian is an adept at grape raising, and the hilly sections of Mississippi are quite suitable for grape culture, and those sections of Mississippi are being deserted by the colored folk, who are congregating in the "delta." It is the intention of the owners of those lands to settle Italians upon them, and it is thought they will soon make out of such deserted lands valuable grape farms. Generally speaking the Italians are an undesirable class of emigrants, but, if they are sent to the rural districts of the South, a few millions of them would not be out of place to mix in with the native help of that section. CRIMINALS TO BE PARDONED. CINEMAS TO BE PARDONED. It is announced that both Cole and James Younger, the notorious war bandits, whose lurid lights of robbery, murder and treason hung from a thousand camp fires during and for a time after the late civil war until they were captured in Northfield, Minn., some twenty-five years ago, are to be pardoned. Perhaps the hands of no two men in the world are stained with the heart's blood of as many of their fellow citizens as the Younger boys, unless it be those of the James boys, who at one time were their partners in crime. The Younger boys, having been captured, were, contrary to all expectation, given life sentences in the Minnesota state prison at Stillwater, instead of hung for their notorious crimes, which they richly deserved. Now, because these men have been model prisoners and have not given the guards any great amount of trouble, sickly sentiment is to make their pardons possible. Time, it seems, cures all evils; and time, it seems, has healed over the breach that the Youngers caused with their own hands to be made between themselves and Christian civilization, by leaving the paths of reckitude in which they had been brought up by a sainted mother and turning bloody bandits, with treason, arson and murder not only in their hearts, but in their hands as well, and our latter-day civilization is to pour anointing oil on their heads and pronounce them saints instead of sinners. The manufacture of writing pens is materially falling off. The nineteenth century saw the steel pen supplant the quill for writing purposes, and the twentieth century will see the typewriter supplant writing pens for the same purpose. This falling off in the use of pens is noticeable in the manufactures. Last year there were published in the United States 666,536 new books, or 653 more than in the previous year. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS SHARP SHOTS Of Things of General Information and Instruction. STATISTICAL NOTES Culled and Collected From the Most Reliable Sources and of the Kind Most Useful to the Busy, Bustling Man of Hurry and Whoop-It-Up—Some Interesting Railroad European Milage Data. Of all of the large cities of the world, London, England, is said to have the poorest water system. It is said that after a careful research there is not to be found a single Jew in all of the United States in a state prison. Representatives from forty-two of the Indian tribes will hold an Indian congress at the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo next summer. Whisky is a peculiar kind of evil. It never looks one up, and will always let one alone if you will just let it alone. The percentage of illiteracy, according to the late census, is less in the state of Kansas than any other state in the Union or any other country on the globe save Belgium. The bill which legally permits New York to accept a library gift of $5,200,000 from Andrew Carnegie, passed the last legislature, has been signed by Governor Odell, In the future, for the next ten years at least, New York state will have thirty-seven congressional districts, and thirty-nine instead of thirty-six members of the next electoral college. Philologists say that there were thirteen original European languages, as follows: Greek, Latin, German, Slavonic, Biscayan, Irish, Albanian, Tartarian, Illyrian, Jazygin, Chaucin and Finnic. Though Joseph Lennon of New York had his back broken and a part of his vertebra removed, he is still able to walk across the ward in the hospital in which he is being treated and will be discharged in June as cured. Germany at the beginning of 1900 had 39,069 miles of railway; Russia, 28,745 miles; France, 26,383 miles; Austria Hungary, 22,670; Great Britain, 21,790; Italy, 9,827; Spain, 8,301; Sweden, 6,702; and Belgium, 3,871, a grand total of 175,821 miles. Centenarians are quite numerous in Spain, this fact having been brought out by the municipalities offering to pension all persons over a hundred years of age. Many have come in for their pensions, and one man boasts of being 130 years old and is still in splendid health and physical condition. Buffalo, in which the present Pan-American exposition is being held, was a mere village until 1832, when it was incorporated with a population of 8,000. It is now the second city in size in the state of New York, with a population of 352,000. Germans may drink a good deal of beer, but according to late reports they are not in it in comparison with the English folks. There are one hundred and forty millions of gallons of beer brewed yearly in the United Kingdom, which equals the total amount brewed by France, America and Austria. There are 6,192 Young Men's Christian Associations in the world, one-quarter of which are in the United States. Germany has 687, North America 1,349, and England and Scotland 1,233. The total membership of the associations is 521,000, of which number 255,000 are in America, 105,000 in England, and 92,000 in Germany. The property in the United States is valued at $24,000,000. The association was founded by Sir George Williams, June 6, 1844. It strikes us that May is having considerable trouble with December this year, especially as to its weather. Gold from the north during the coming season promises to tax the vaults of the assay offices of this city to their fullest capacity. There is no doubt but that high license will regulate the saloon traffic in any city. All you need is to put the license high enough. Spokane went Populist last Tuesday, the opponents of the "wide open policy" being directly responsible for it so doing. Seattle should take warning. Hazzard happens to have presidential nomination plums in his pockets for free distribution, but, come to think, who would have a Democratic nomination for president anyway? Seattle Market Report is the latest weekly that has put in its appearance for public patronage. It is edited, owned and operated by Messrs. Ulmer and Kanouse. Granted, the Pipers have struck oil in Texas, it seems that they have not struck a federal job for Fred as yet in Washington state, and they would have rather done that than to have struck oil either in Texas or Washington. That seems to have been no josh when Mr. Lambton in the British parliament one day this week said: "The miners were as good as many of the men who have worn the Victoria cross." We suspect 95 per cent of the British people in their heart of hearts said Amen to Mr. Lambton's declaration. From press reports sent out from London, the diary kept by Queen Victoria will probably be published in the course of the coming summer. This will doubtless be the most interesting publication that was ever kept by the hands of a royal person-age. It takes quite a struggle on the part of a country newspaper to live long enough to boast of being in its teens, but the Washingtonian of Hoquiam has done that very thing, as its last issue was Volume XIII., No. 1. Success to you, Bre'r Dean, and may you live to see your paper reach its twenties. In swaping Mugwumpism for Democracy the Whatcom Blade has exchanged the devil for the witch. The Blade will miss Bre'r Teck's spicy editorials as well as his "way-sided noted," for with these he made the Blade excel very largely the average country newspaper, its politics to the contrary notwithstanding. It is estimated that 30,000 persons left Chicago last week for the purpose of finding better homes in the West than they had in the East. Now, if the majority of that 30,000 did not have dollars enough to buy themselves small country homes and live therein instead of looking for city jobs, some of them are going to wish that they were back in the East before the present year expires. Minister Conger says he is in no wise a candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination of Iowa, but would accept the nomination if offered to him. Minister Conger may be something of a national hero, owing to his late Chinese experience, but unless his friends get in and drill for this nomination he will find that it will never be tendered to him on a silver platter. Can any one surmise what would have been the fate of William Nutter, the man who abducted Olive Penwitt, the little 14-year-old Snohomish county colored girl and induced her to take $400 and other valuables from home and elope with him had Nutter had a black face instead of a white one? Had his face been black and the little girl's white long ere this he would have been with the angels. It is journalistically refreshing to learn from the South Bend Journal that it has secured the contract for the county printing for the ensuing year at 75 cents per square for the first insertion and 50 cents per square for each subsequent insertion and 10 cents per description for tax lien notices. Such contracts as those pay, and it reminds one in the newspaper business that the newspaper making such contracts is doing business on business principles. The Times of this city has just secured the contract for the printing for King county at a half a cent per inch per insertion—a burning shame. We believe with the Union Record in that "a publisher cannot serve two masters," and believing that we had a better friend in the moneyed master than we could expect in the laboring master, we have decided to serve the former in preference to the latter. Both the Negro and the "organ" of the Negro have reasons to oppose labor unionism wherever they find it, simply because experience has taught them that such is the only course they can pursue and keep the wolf from the door in those localities where unionism prevails to any great extent. The Union Record is wrong in toto when it says, "labor unions do not oppose laborers unless the same be non-union men," for in no place where the colored man is a dangerous factor does the labor unions give him an equal show in their lodges and associations, and while the Record may be correct in saying, "a few colored men in this city are all colored of labor unions," if it will take the pains to hunt the matter up, it will find that not to exceed a hundred colored men throughout the city that kind of labor in which labor unnons play a conspicuous part, and even right here, they are not given a fair deal, for regardless of how many colored men might join the waiters' union, if one of them should go to another place in the city outside of where they are regularly employed, for work, he would not get a situation long enough to earn a meal's victuals, and that, too, on account of labor union help's opposition to colored labor. The Record has plenty of good theory, but is quite devoid of actual facts. The East India attendants to Queen Victoria have been retired from the royal palace on life pensions, and the most of them will return to their native land, which will not be regretted by the other members of the household, as the Indians were generally disliked.

That he is not doing his duty the Pie-maker has the law of the state and the ordinances of the city to refer the citizens to, in charging that he is not. Touching the police duties the following is taken from the city charter, being the second article under the duties of the chief of police: "The chief of police or any police officer, or any regular or special policeman shall make arrests with warrants for any crime or violation of the laws of the state or any ordinance of the city committed within the city, and shall make arrests without warrants in such cases as shall be prescribed by ordinance, until the city council prescribe such cases all arrests may be made without warrant. The chief of police shall keep a correct record of all arrests made by him or other members of the police force, showing the time and cause of complaint upon which each arrest was made, with a list and description of all property and money taken from each person, with a statement of the disposition made of the same, and make a full report thereof in writing each month to the mayor." If this does not of itself indict Chief Meredith as derelict to his duty, then language cannot be so constructed as to so state it. % % % When an officer of the law refuses to punish violators of the law be approval, then it is very clear that cause it does not meet his private and it is learned from a Chicago pa-such an officer of the law is in collusion in some way, form or manner, with such violators of the law. If an officer of the law knows that persons are breaking the laws of his state, and does not arrest such violators, when he knows exactly where they are, then, in heaven's name, how can he expect but to be accused of being in glove with such violators? Those things are crimes against the peace and dignity of the state and municipality, which the people through their law makers declare to be criminal, and regardless of the private opinions of any person or persons, it is the duty of the officers of the law to arraign such persons of crimes before criminal courts for breaking the law. Is Chief Meredith of this city doing that? If not, why not? %% The Pie-maker suggests that Senator Foster assume control of President McKinley while in this state and then reduce the confines of the state to the yard limits of the St. Paul and Tacoma Lumber Co.'s immediate grounds, and then show the president and his party the state of Washington in a nut shell. A few months ago this paper dubbed Mr. Foster as Senator Blundering Foster, and his efforts to prevent President McKinley from seeing any part of Washington except Tacoma does not prompt it to modify its former statement about him to the effect that he has made more blunders since he has been United States senator than any man ever elected to that high position from this state. The Pie-maker is of the opinion that the presidential party is anxious to see the Puget Sound country without regard to Tacoma or Seattle or any other particular point, and those having charge of the president after his arrival in the state should make it a point to show him Puget Sound, even though he does not stay in either Tacoma or Seattle as many hours as the citizens thereof would like for him to. It is too bad that the president of the United States has to be handicapped by such narrow-minded, biased politicians as are now trying to direct his movements when he reaches Washington. %% The Pie-maker notes that Hon. Joseph Shippen, who lived in Seattle some years ago, and who took an active interest in business movements connected with the city, county and state, is again in the city and has taken up his permanent abode and legal duties as of yore. In speaking of things in general to the Pie-maker one day this week Mr. Shippen said: "Certainly the Northern people will not permit the disfranchisement of so many of the legal voters of the South to go unchallenged. Certainly they will not allow those people to count the votes of the men disfranchised and get congressional representation for the same without raising the question of "governing without the consent of the governed." Either every man should be permitted to vote or the congressional apportionment should be cut down in proportion to the actual number of votes that are cast." This is just what the Pie-maker has accepted from time to time for lo! these many months, and has urged the members of congress from this state to vote for just such a proposition in the halls of congress, and he is glad to see that one member from this state is quite favorable to it and will do all in his power at the next session of congress to have the measure discussed in its widest latitude. % % % A surety bond is an instrument that few persons know very much about, and strange to say that those persons who should know the most about it seem to know the least about it. In speaking to John A. Whalley the manager of the Fidelity Deposit Co., which makes a specialty of surety bonds, he said: "Persons make a serious mistake in not going to bonding companies to make their bonds in preference to asking private individuals to make bonds for them. If you wish to become a guardian of a minor child, or administrator of an estate, or wish to make a bond to hold an office, it will save a great deal of worry, inconvenience as well as embarrassment to go to a bond company instead of an individual friend for such help. I am inclined to think that bonding companies will finally do all such business, for the reason that it is a business proposition, and by no means a friendly one. Then again, clerks and bookkeepers in responsible positions should be bonded, and the proprietors of such institutions should have no hesitancy in compelling them to furnish a surety bond, for when this has been done it makes all concerned a good deal more careful in their business relations. It is much easier for a good man to get a surety bond than it is for him to get what might be termed a good citizen bond. The company which I represent is the strongest financial company in the world that is doing this kind of business, and it is backed by such men as J. P. Morgan, the noted iron syndicate man. The directors in the Fidelity & Deposit Co., could of their own personal money raise a billion dollars with perfect ease, which makes this company the strongest one that is now doing business in the United States." It would be interesting for persons not having given this subject any consideration to call at Mr. Whalley's office, 5 and 6 Colman building, and see for themselves what a systematic affair this surety bonding business is. % % % "I am of the opinion that though the King county central committee has recommended Fred Piper for the position of clerk in the internal revenue office in this city that he will never get the same. In trying to have this done, it strikes me that Geo. Piper was simply endeavoring to see how well he did stand with the political push at present, and I am constrained to believe that he will find that he stands darn poor," said a well-known politician this week, and the Pie-maker is inclined to believe that he did not speak without due consideration and without having first talked with others equally as close to the throne as himself. The city council has granted a saloon license for a saloon to be opened in the Eighth ward at Smith cove. For years the citizens of the Eighth ward have unanimously opposed the opening of a saloon in that ward, but it seems that their opposition has been of no avail after all. The opening of one saloon in that ward may mean the opening of one more, and perhaps, one dozen more. In short, it may mean that saloons may be scattered all along the water front of that ward, and even in the residence portions of it, and in future there will be the same element to contend with in the Eighth ward as predominates in the First ward. It is a disgrace to the civilization of the better elements of any community to have saloons opened up in the resident portions of a city, as is now threatening the resident portion of the Eighth ward. If saloons can be opened in the Eighth ward, they may likewise be opened in the Seventh, the Third and the Sixth wards, and thus the present administration that has been supported from start to finish by the saloon element, will have its supporters and knockers in every ward in the city, and those knockers will have their public lounging places for the men and the voters that they handle to keep the present administration in power. Said a member of the city council one day this week: "There is a remedy for closing the gambling houses and saloons that are running contrary to law, by nine members of the city council placing a special police system in operation for the express purpose of seeing that the law is obeyed, and by selecting a special chief of police to see that those policemen so elected do their duty, and such chief can act independently of the present chief of police, and will in no wise be accountable to the mayor for either his or his men's actions. I am of the opinion that it would be hard under the present conditions to get You don't know what is the very best possible deal to be made on a piano until you have visited our piano department. You will see how much the makes and beautiful finishes at really extraordinary prices. Credit is given on terms to suit your convenience. nine members of the city council to act favorably on this point, but it can be done, and unless it is done the Republican party will be whipped clean out of its boots at the next municipal election." The question of high saloon license is receiving quite a good deal of the public's consideration and attention at present. Better have high license than practically no license. High license will at least close up the cheap criminal dives, and that would be a strong point won by the decent element of this community. Give the city high license, and just as high as the state law will permit them to be, for if it does nothing more it will lessen the number of drinking resorts in the city. THE GAMBLING EVIL. But a few days ago a colored man who kept a gambling house was strung up by the citizens of Alden Bridge, Louisiana, because he was a menace to the peace of the neighborhood in the keeping of such a place. What a peculiar world this is after all, and especially for the "Brother in Black!" In the above instance, he was lynched because he permitted gambling to go on in and about his premises, and perhaps actually participating. Now another instance occurs to our mind, wherein a colored man opposed gambling, gambling houses and gamblers, and for criticising the authorities for permitting such to be carried on contrary to the laws of the land, this colored citizen was thrown into jail, denied bail and treated in every respect as if he was a red-handed murderer or a big, bold robber. Just what course the colored citizens of this country are expected to pursue in order to be ideal citizens is a very difficult question for them to solve under existing circumstances. Gambling, whether in Louisiana or Washington, should be suppressed, but is seems that there is no need of lynching a human being because he permitted it to go on in his premises, nor is there any need of putting a man in jail because he criticises the authorities for permitting gambling to go on in the city in which he lives. DEMOCRATIC NUISANCE. Continued from page 1. children, when he said: "If you will just learn to do one thing that is useful better than anybody else can do that one thing, you will never be out of a job," should be carefully considered by every colored child in the United States, and if they will act accordingly there will be a marked improvement noted in them being employed on the Post-Intelligencer and other places, where men of tact and talent are expected to be employed.

VERNER CONTINUES Irish plays have hit the popular fancy at the Third Avenue Theater and will be continued next week, at least the first half will be given over to another of Boucault's famous dramas, "Arah Na Pogue," one of the sweetest and prettiest pictures of Irish peasant life ever seen on any stage. GRAND OPERA HOUSE Tomorrow night at the Grand Opera House the Frawley Company will give the closing performance of "The Wife," and Sunday evening the last week of this highly successful engagement will begin, with an elaborate scenic production of "The Great Ruby," one of the most tremendously successful melodramas of recent years. AT THE SEATTLE. A great company, in "Nathan Hale," headed by Howard Kyle, opened a three nights' engagement at the Seattle last evening. Their success exceeded expectations, a crowded house being present to witness the production of this great patriotic play. The production is complete in every particular and has been brought here with the exact scenery and cast used in the original presentation in New York. PERSONAL The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. McGowen will regret to learn of the death of Mrs. McGowen and her little six-day-old baby, which sad event occurred last Monday. Mr. and Mrs. McGowen had a pleasant home in South Seattle, and he was making a hard struggle to have it even more pleasant when this sad bereavement-befell him. The funeral was held at Bonney & Stewart's undertaking parlors Wednesday forenoon, Rev. Scott officiating. The body of James Morgan, who was formerly a hotel waiter at the Rainier-Grand, was fished out of the bay one day last week in a badly decomposed state. Mr. Morgan mysteriously disappeared some time prior, and his friends feared foul play, but on searching the body $17 was found on it, which scoffs the idea of foul play. The man evidently had been drinking heavily and fell off the piers into the bay and was drowned. Rev. G. A. Bailey, of Tacoma, who is presiding elder of Eastern Washington in the A. M. E. church, passed through this city last Friday, having completed an extended visit through that section. Concerning his visit he said to a representative of this paper: "The work in Spokane under Rev. J. L. Payne is in splendid condition, and the citizens thereof are taking a great deal more interest in it at present than they have for some time in the past. Rev. Payne is a most excellent man and church worker, and he has got quite a number of new members into the congregation. Financially it is doing well, and it has a membership composed of some of the best colored folk in the state. "I visited Roslyn also, and found it in a very good condition. Rev. N. D. Harttsfield has charge of that work in connection with his Newcastle work, and he makes alternate visits to each place. We have a local preacher there, who is able to fill the pulpit on Sundays when Rev. Harttsfield cannot be there, and on the whole the Roslyn work is doing exceedingly well." (Application No. 108.)
