The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN NORTHWEST VOL. VIII., NO. 3 BROTHER IN BLACK IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Ob serving Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Congressman Livingston Has a Word to Say—His Open Confession Food for Thought—Negroes Leaving the Atlantic States—Educational Funds in Florida—Sheriff Stood Pat—Sister Smith Seriously Injured—Tuskegee Gets a Gift From Rockerfeller. NO DISFRANCHISEMENT. Congressman Livingston of Georgia is the first Southern white man to strike the keynote on the disfranchisement of the colored voters in the South. In a recent interview he is credited with having said: "The states of Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina will yet regret they have passed disfranchisement acts aimed and directed at colored men only. Sooner or later congress will look into this matter and will cut down the number of representatives from those states in proportion to the number of votes that are actually cast by them, and then the devil will be to pay. For such will reopen the issues of the civil war and thus widen the political chasm between the North and the South which has existed since the first agitation of the slavery question. So far as the colored voters are concerned in the state of Georgia, we have no great amount of trouble with them, and we manage to carry our election just the same af is they were disfranchised. The white people of Georgia are most decidedly opposed to disfranchising the black people of the state, and any move made in that direction will not be counterenanced or tolerated." AN OPEN CONFESSION. The above open confession from one of Georgia's leading and foremost citizens but verifies the position which The Republican has taken from time to time on the question of the disfranchisement of the colored voters of the various Southern states. It is a wilful waste on the part of any Southern state to expend its money for the noding of a constitutional convention that the constitution of such state may be amended so as to disfranise a certain class of people that have already been so completely disfranised that a tenth of their number never pay any more attention to election day or of those who are to be elected to fill the various offices of the county and state than if they were not citizens of the community in which they live. The Negro as a voter has been practically disfranchised in every state in the South since the final Republican overthrow in 1876. Here and there it is quite true that they have, spasmodically as well as sporatically, elected some one of their number to some insignificant office, but this has been the exception and by no means the rule. Suen a confession coming from one of the members of congress from Georgia is a splendid document on which the Republicans in the North can base the commencement of an action in the house of representatives to lessen the number of representatives from the South. Every member of congress from the North who is possessed of a pound of patriotism should paste this interview in his hat, and when congress assembles again read it and read it again and vote for the number of representatives from Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina to be cut down in proportion to the actual number of votes those states have from time to time cast, which on an average would give about three members of congress from each of them. Those states have no more right to have double and treble the power in congress than the other states of this Union, and they should be given to understand that immediately, if not sooner. LEAVING THE LAND It is learned that the colored folk of Georgia and the Atlantic coast states are emigrating very rapidly from that section and seeking homes in other sections of the United States, and more especially in the Mississippi delta, where cotton raising is more extensively carried on. It is barely possible that the delta is getting more of the colored emigrants than any of the other sections, but some of the Northern states are likewise getting a heavy percentage of them. As has been previously said in these columns, the city of Chicago alone has a population of 100,000 Southern colored people, the most of whom have emi MRS. AMANDA SMITH MRS. AMANDA SMITH grated thereto within the past ten years. The city of New York and many of the other Northern cities have received a like proportion of colored emigrants from the souti, while the West in general has not been overlooked. In other words, while the South may still be the "black belt," so far as the Negro is concerned, nevertheless he is rapidly scattering out to other localities and communities in the United States and adapting himself to the surroundings and environments that he finds in those communities where he has taken refuge. If there is any solution of the race question this emigration solution promises to be the most effective one. In order to prevent race riots, disfranchisement acts and other forms of mob violence the Negro must scatter out and not be collected in overwhelming numbers in any one community or state of this Union. Speaking about dividing the educational funds of the Southern states between the races in proportion to the taxes that each pays, it might be of interest to the average reader, and especially the average reader of the North, to learn a few facts about the taxes directly paid into the treasury by the colored folk of the state of Florida. From the superintendent's report it is learned that the colored folk of Florida annually contribute $23,984 for educational purposes, and it costs the state but $19,454 for the education of the colored children, which leaves a balance between the amount paid in and the amount drawn out by the colored folk of $4,627, and this amount goes to the education of the white children of that state. If in the state of Florida the taxes paid in for educational purposes were divided in proportion to the taxes each of the races paid for educational purposes, the shoe would be on the wrong foot from what it is in many of the states of the South. However, the agitation of this matter is a roaring force and the attempt of any state to put it into execution will be cutting off its own nose, educationally speaking, to spite its face. One county sheriff in the state of Georgia has distinguished himself by repulsing a mob bent on lynching a man convicted of murder, but who had been granted a stay of execution pending an appeal to the supreme court of the state. When an angry mob of 300 or more men had crowded into the county jail at Carrollton, Ga., one day last week with the avowed purpose of seizing one Joe Merrill, a Negro, that summary justice might be administered to him, they were met by the sheriff and three deputies, who commanded the would-be lynchers to retreat or suffer the consequences; but they steadily advanced on the sheriff and his allies, and to prevent them from getting their hands on the man the command to fire on the mob was given, which resulted in one man being instantly killed and three fatally wounded. This was such an unexpected surprise to the mob that it fled panic-streken, and before another could be collected the state militia was on hand and the prisoner spirited away to Atlanta for safekeeping. While the remedy administered to those accused of lawbreaking was a rather severe one, and one that should only be administered in the most extreme cases, yet when it has to be administered it should be administered in the most telling as well as effective manner Lynch law should go, and there seems to be no other way to start it going except by beginning to lynch the lynchers; that is to say, when mobs collect for the express purpose of defying the law, then the law THE EDUCATIONAL FUND. HE STOOD PAT should collect counter mobs for the express purpose of defying the lawbreakers, and let the one extreme be met by another, and the assertion is here ventured that it would be but a short time before lynch law would become unpopular. STOOD OFF A MOB. It is rather remarkable that four men could so successfully defy a mob of as many hundred men as did the sheriff and his three deputies at Carrollton, Ga., a few days ago. It would seem that a moo so large as that one would have been made up of men with the determination of meeting any kind of obstruction that would be thrown in the way of its onward march, and would have been ready to have met death itself rather than turn from its purpose, but here we find four men successfully defying as many hundred men, and after one of their number had fallen, pierced by the defenders bullet, the others took to fight, and, leaving their dead and dying behind, they fled wild with fright lest the sheriff and his three deputies capture the entire 400 of them and perhaps lynch them. The Republican has always maintained that the men who make lynching parties in the South are men noted for cowardice, men noted for being guilty of shooting an enemy from ambush and men noted for making no effort to defend themselves unless they be backed by a hundred or more just such cowards as themselves. When 400 men will go to a jail where one man is confined in a cell and is as helpless in their hands as an innocent babe, and will murder such man without giving him any show or opportunity for his life, then such men are guilty of the most damnable form of cowardice and are unworthy to be pronounced American citizens. SISTER SMITH SICK The many acquaintances as well as personal admirers of Mrs. Amanda Smith, whose portrait is herewith presented, will regret to learn of her dangerous illness at her home in Chicago. A few days ago, while she was driving to her home, returning from a business trip to the heart of the city, the animal drawing the vehicle took fright and made a wild dash down the thoroughfare. She was soon thrown from the carriage and sustained internal injuries that may prove fatal, though her physicians still have hopes of pulling her safely through, despite her age and infirmities. "Sister Smith," as she is known throughout the length and breadth of Christendom, is one of the most successful evangelists that the present age has produced, and she has evangelized among all nationalities, classes and conditions. Though born a slave, she has been received with open arms by the rich and the poor, the grand and the humble, the white and the black, the Jew and the gentile, until her color is no longer a distressing condition against her in her chosen field of labor. Through her personal efforts she has raised sufficient funds to establish a home for colored orphans near Chicago, which is now doing exceedingly well, and has many foundlings therein receiving the very best attention and care. It would appear that there is still more work for her to do, and it is hoped that she will be spared to accomplish it. There are 216,000 miles of railway in operation in North America, and of this number 189,295 miles are in the United States. At present England is importing annually $1,000,000,000 worth more goods than she exports. This is uncommon to Great Britain, and, commercially speaking, it forebodes no good to that country. Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. THE WEEKLY REVIEW Grant's Opinion of Aguinaldo— Running Discussion on the Army Canteen—Herne was a Geat Actor—Agnostics Looking for Cheap Notoriety—Scandanavia Trade With Uncle Sam— Approaching an Oil Era—Third Term Nit. GRANT AND AGUINALDO. ACTOR HERNE'S DEATH. The world recently lost one of its most noted actors and playwrights in the person of James A. Herne, who a few days ago died at his home in New York city after a brief illness. Perhaps Mr. Herne did not acquire the stage prominence that some of the American actors did, but in his own peculiar way he was a most brilliant star on the stage. His last and perhaps most effective play was "Sag Harbor," which was of his own composition, and in which he himself did the star act, and it has been pronounced by the leading theatergoers of the world as a most clever production. It was while he was taking an active part in this play in Chicago, Ill., that he took seriously sick, from which he never rallied. THAT ARMY CANTEEN Much discussion is going the rounds of the press at present over the restoration of the army canteen. Owing to the fact that the soldiers in many instances have been found drunk in large numbers in the neighboring saloons near their respective posts, it is argued that such is the direct outcome of dropping the army canteen. This, perhaps, may be true, but even before the canteen was discarded in the army soldiers stationed at the various posts were given to visiting the neighboring saloons, getting drunk, raising old Nick and being guilty of all kinds of devilty contrary to the laws and the dignity of a soldier, and it is more than likely that the persons living near those posts see no difference in the actions of the men since the canteen has been discarded than they did before it was. A United States soldier is nothing more nor less than an average American citizen in blue uniform, and a great many of them in private life indulged in intoxicant liquors to an excess, and they continue to do so even though they are United States soldiers. The fact of him becoming a soldier does not make him morally any better along this line than he was as a private citizen. The greatest evil about the army canteen seems to have been that it educated the soldier into the belief that whiskey had to be a part of his daily existence, to be as common to him as the water in the canteen on the other side, and in many instances the whiskey canteen proved even more preferable than the water canteen. The dispensing of the army canteen was not done with the idea of making temperance moralists out of the soldiers, but it was done with the idea of disabusing their minds of the belief that they could not live without a jug of whiskey at their sides. Regardless of the fact that the soldiers do go to saloons and participiae in drunken broils, it would be a step backward to restore the canteen to the soldier as a part and parecel of his daily existence as well as subsistence. AGNOSTICS GET MARRIED Recently two agnostics were united in marriage according to agnostic ideas of the matrimonial ceremony. These two creatures were evidently looking for an oversupply of newspaper notoriety, which prompted them to make themselves a mark at which the newspapers by and large could take random shots. It is regretted that the many random shots taken at them could not have hit the mark and prove fatal to both of them. In this country (and it should be the same in every country) every man has the right to either believe in God or not believe in Him to worship God or not worship Him according to the dictates of his own conscience, but the laws of the United States have laid down certain rules by which persons desiring to unite in the bonds of matrimony are to follow, and when some crank, who conceives the idea that he is "it," tries to break away from those fixed principles, then he or she is, as said above, looking for cheap notoriety, with no other idea than believing that such will bring his认同 followers and worshippers. The Republican does not intend to take issues with the agnostic and his wholesale absurdities, but it does think that the agnostics should have sense enough to conform to the laws and regulations of this country as accepted by a great majority of the men and women living herein, and not bid for the cheap amount of publicity, such as characterized the efforts of that agnostic couple in Cincinnati a few days ago. SCANDINAVIAN TRADE In recent years the United States government has become very closely related to the Scandinavian countries through heavy trade relations, as shown by Frank H. Hitchcock of the agricultural department of this country, which are exceedingly encouraging for the United States. The Scandinavian country, which is made up of Norway, Sweden and Denmark, during the past ten years has done a heavy trade with the United States. Since 1890 the trade with these countries on the part of the United States has risen from $9,000,000 to nearly $29,000,000. This country imported from Scandinavia in 1890 $4,000,000 worth, and yet in 1900 its imports did not exceed $5,000,000, which shows a balance in favor of the United States of pretty nearly $25,000,000 worth of trade. From this report it is also learned that the exports to Denmark form the principal factor of this Scandinavian trade $18,000,000 worth going to Denmark and $10,000,000 to Norway. These countries are dealing extensively at present in agricultural implements, made and manufactured in the United States. The agricultural conditions of that country are being more thoroughly developed at present than they have been for many years past, and the implements made here seem to meet the needs of such improvements more completely than those made in any other country in the world, hence the great export trade from the United States to Scandinavia. IT'S AN OIL AGE. Some time ago The Republican sagely announced that this was an "oil age," while at the time the fact hardly warranted the allegation, nevertheless subsequent developments have proven that the United States is just about entering an oil era. The discovery of gold in many sections of the United States suddenly made millionaires out of poor men. The same has been true of coal and other minerals that have been discovered from time to time in the United States. Now in every state of the Union there is more or less prospecting for oil, and, strange to say, that in most every state where prospectors are pushing their works to completion they are being tended with more or less success. Millionaires on account of having struck oil are common now in a great many states of this Union, and unless the writer is greatly mistaken the half along this line has not as yet been told. Oil will be struck in a good many more places than it already has been struck, and there will be a good many more persons made independent from having struck oil than have already been made independent, and while it may be possible for syndicates to prevent oil from being shipped over the various railroads so as to cheapen it in the more popular districts of this country for general utility purposes, nevertheless it will be cheapened in so many places that it is here predicted that the time is near at hand when not only the Standard Oil trust, but likewise the coal trust, will be broken in twain; yea, not only broken in twain, but broken in atoms, on account of innumerable oil discoveries in the various sections of this country. NO THIRD TERM. President McKinley sets at rest the third term talk in the following communication: "I regret that the suggestion of a third term has been made. I doubt whether I am called upon to give it notice. But there are now questions of the gravest importance before the administration of this country, and their just consideration should not be prejudiced in the public mind by even the suspicion of the thought of a third term. In view, therefore, of the reiteration of the suggestion of it, I will say now, once for all, expressing a long settled conviction, that I not only am not and will not be a candidate for a third term, but would not accept a nomination for it if it were tendered me. "My only ambition is to serve through my second term to the acceptance of my countrymen, whose generous confidence I so deeply appreciate, and then to resume my duty in the ranks of private citizenship. (SIGNED) "WM. M'KINLEY. "Executive Mansion, Washington, D.C. June 10, 1901." HE HITS HARD. The following suffrage bill has been offered the Alabama constitutional convention for its adoption: "Those who are bastards or loafers or who may be infested with any loathsome or contagious disease; those who have been convicted of treason, bribery, forgery, larceny, robbery, bigamy, seduction, incest, murder or any attempt to rape or commit arson; those who are descendants of parents of two or more different races, those who shall have married any woman having a living husband, from whom she has not been legally divorced; those who have committed any assault and battery on their wives or step-daughters and those who have ever cast an illegitimate ballot or who have not paid a poll tax of one dollar and a half six months before any election at which he may attempt to vote." SEATTLE GAS & ELECTRIC CO. On and after July 1st this Company will reduce the price of gas to $1.60 per thousand, and no distinction will be made in the use of gas for fuel and illuminating purposes. The rate will be $1.80 per thousand, with a discount of 20c per thousand on all bills paid on or before the tenth day of the next succeeding month for which the bills are rendered. Bills are due on the first day of each month, and failure to receive bill will not entitle customer to rebate, unless bill is actually paid on or before the 10th inst. Bills paid by check, through the mails, must be in this office on the 10th inst. The discount of 20c per thousand is offered to consumers in consideration of their paying their bills at the office as soon as due, thus saving the expense of sending out collectors. Parties desiring to avoid the annoyance of looking after their bills can have a prepayment meter put in, and pay for their gas as used, at the rate of $1.60 per thousand. The minimum charge will be 25c per meter per month on plain meters and 50c per meter per month on prepaid meters. Under the above rate consumers will hereafter be saved the expense of running separate piping for fuel. Where gas is now supplied through both light and fuel meters, piping will be rearranged, without expense to consumer, to furnish the entire supply through one meter. Above rate and discount does not apply to June consumption. Recently a Salt Lake judge gave a man who had blacked his face and committed various depredations on little girls and women who perchanced to be out at unseasonable hours of the evening sixty days in the county jail. Sixty years might have been more in keeping with the crimes he committed. News items free of charge inserted in The Republican. All notices must be in Thursday morning; Office, 714 Third.

Unhowing the farmers is said to be the latest move on the part of the labor unions of this country. There is at present a Tirnansers protective Association, which prevails throughout Iowa, Illinois and Texas and several of the other Southern states, and the farmers are being exhorted to join this. Rev. Dr. Washington estimates that at the end of the first century there were 5,000,000 nominal Christians in the world; at the end of the tenth century 10,000,000; at the end of the nineteenth century there were 100,000,000; at the end of the eighteenth century there were 200,000,000; and at the end of the nineteenth century there were 500,000,000. On this number, 98,000,000 belonged to the Greek church and 140,000,000 to the Protestant churches, 230,000,000 to the Roman Catholic churches. In 1500 the Roman Catholics were ruling 80,000,000 people; in 1700, 90,000,000; in 1891, 242,000,000. The Greek Catholics in 1600 were governing 20,000,000; in 1700, 33,000,000; in 1891, 128,000,000. The Protestants held sway over 32,000,000 in 1800, and in 1891 over 520,000,000. The following figures concerning the exact status of the population of South Africa has been given out by a British officer: In Cape Colony there are 320,000 whites to 1,200,000 natives; in Basutoland there are 600 whites to 250,000 natives; in the Transvaal before the war there were 345,000 whites and over 748,000 natives; in the Orange Free State there were 80,000 whites and 130,000 natives; in Natal there were 61,000 whites and 87,000 natives; in Rhodesia there were 10,000 whites and 500,000 natives; which, being summed up, showed that there were 800,000 whites in South Africa against 3,400,000 natives. When Washington was in inaugurated president Rhode Island ranked first in density of population, which was 63 inhabitants to the square mile. Fifty years later it had 100; in 1860 it had 161; in 1900, 407 people to the square mile, which places it first as to the density of the population of any other state in the Union. Massachusetts ranks second as to the density of population, it having 349 inhabitants to the square mile; Connecticut stands third, with 187 inhabitants to the square mile.

The Jewish people of Seattle purpose to have a temple of the rarest and most up-to-date style, and to that end the corner stone for such a building was laid last Sunday and Rabbi Theodore F. Joseph was the prime spirit of the whole affair. Nordstrom has already cost King county something in the neighborhood of $10,000, and, not satisfied with that, he has caused an extra session of the legislature to be called, which will make him first and last cost the state of Washington in the neighborhood of $20,000, and it is very doubtful whether he will be hung then or not.

There may be no politics in the assembling of the legislature at present, but, unless The Republican is sadly mistaken, politics is going to bop up serenely in the deliberations of the legislature before it adjourns. A Tacoma divine thinks that the word "gentleman" as generally used and applied at present is decidedly ambiguous. We are of the opinion that the persons to whom it is applied are a good deal more ambiguous for the most part than the word of itself is. The King County Courier, formerly published at Kent, but which has been sleeping since the last state election, has imbibed from the fabled fountain of immortal youth in and about Enumclaw and has taken on a new lease of life. Enumclaw ought to be a good stand for a weekly paper. Because George Washington, the father of his country, declined a third term for the presidency, it does not necessarily follow that every other president of this country should follow in his footsteps or exhibit the same amount of political modesty. Everybody to their liking, either in this or any other matter. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The prospect and promise of $1,000,000 on one's wedding day is a sufficient inducement for most any man to marry. It would appear that a $1,000,000 check cut quite a figure in Senator Clark's son making up his mind to get married. A local exchange asks the question, "Are all lawyers who go to the legislature fools or rascals?" There is one thing certain, neighbor, they are not fools. While we do not charge them with being the latter, we most decidedly know that they are not the former. From the Inter Ocean it is learned that an Uncle Tom's Cabin play is attracting thousands of visitors to a theater in that city, which calls for a long editorial on the part of the Inter Ocean as to why this old timeworn play should continue to attract. One of the chief reasons why it does lies in the fact that it is, in a nutshell, the history of an oppressed people, who, perhaps, was more oppressed than any other race of people ever before on the face of the earth, and this play was the keynote which marked the beginning of a different civilizations for them, and until time apparently will be no more, or as long as the English language is spoken, this play will move men and women to 'sympathy and vindictiveness, and will continue to draw crowds to see it whether it be really meritorious or not. It is a most remarkable play for these very reasons, and it will so continue to be as long as it is played on the American stage. REDUCED RATES Are now in effect to Buffalo, New York.

After it was discovered that the bill was defective, in that it practically turned loose all of the criminals convicted of murder in the first degree in this state who were awaiting execution, the governor at once decided to call the legislature together and to have the act either doctored or repealed in toto. It was given out that no politics would figure in this affair, and both parties expressed a desire that this only measure be discussed at the extra session. However, the secretary of state felt that it was his duty from a legal standpoint to present the late vetoes of the governor to the legislature for their consideration, which was done as soon as the body had been assembled and organized. Owing to the fact that many of the senators had expressed themselves in the belief that the Rands law was not defective, it was thought that nothing would be accomplished in the assembling of the legislature along this line, but the contrary was the result, for the senate was the first to repeal the law. Now that the legislature is in session, there is no law preventing the extending of the session as long as it desires, almost indefinite, and it can pass and act upon any measure that it sees fit, though it is generally supposed that only those things that require the immediate care of that body will be considered. Perhaps after the Rands bill has been disposed of, the next important thing that will be before that body is the districting of the state for the election of three congressmen. Many of the most eminent constitutional lawyers of this state have already expressed an opinion that there was a possibility of Washington not being represented in the lower house of the next congress, because the state was not districted according to the United States laws, which regulates such things. If this measure is taken up, then politics will show itself in good shape, and it will not only show itself from a Republican and Democratic standpoint, but it will show itself from a Republican factional standpoint, and as there will be many conflicting interests to be considered in the congressional districting of this state a bitter fight may be looked for. If any other question is considered before the present legislature the direct primary bill will likewise be considered, and its most ardent advocates believe that it will be passed if it is taken up. This measure lacked but one vote in passing at the last session of the legislature, and its advocates believe that the members have been sufficiently educated since that time on the measure that they are now ready and willing to pass it practically without any opposition. According to political gossipers, C. B. Hopkins, of Spokane, has been tendered the appointment of United States marshal of this district by Senator Foster. This fact has been strenuously denied by Mr. George H. Baker, who has been considered the leading candidate for the place ever since the election of Senator Foster. Mr. Baker was in Seattle one day this week and gave it out that there was no truth in the Hopkins story, and that he did not doubt for a minute but that he would receive the appointment at the proper time, but this story does not coincide with the story given out by the friends of Mr. Baker and the close personal friends of Senator Foster, who declare that Mr. Hopkins has been tendered the place and is now considering the advisability of accepting the same. There is doubtless some truth in the Hopkins story, for it has been officially given out that the federal officers in Whatcom county are not to be removed, as it would cause political disturbances and factional fighting that have to some extent subsided. It is also hinted that there will be no change in the federal officials holding positions now in King county, as they have made very acceptable officials, and to remove them might precipitate another bitter factional fight, which the leading Republicans of the state do not care to see repeated. Bitter political feuds have run rampant in the Republican party in this state for the past four years, and the leading Republicans see that it must finally result in the complete overthrow of the Republican party unless headed off, hence they are advising such steps to be taken by Senator Foster in the interests of no political factions, but in the interests of the Republican party in general. Madam Rumor has it that the reason that Mr. Hopkins has been offered the marshalship is that a political difference has arisen between Senator Foster and his friends on one side and Mr. Levi Ankeny and his friends on the other side. Mr. Ankeny, believing that Mr. Foster was sufficiently obligated to him to make any appointments that he would recommend, demanded much more than Senator Foster felt called upon to give, and this resulted in a complete break-up between the two, so the story goes, and Senator Foster at once said to Mr. Ankeny very frankly, "You go your way and I will go mine, and hereafter we will travel in different political coaches." Whether this be true or not, both the friends and enemies of Mr. Ankeny are talking it on the streets and about the legislatures, which are now in session. Time, however, will prove the correctness of these rumore, but whether it does or does not, some steps should be taken by the Republicans to harmonize the differences that now exist in the party. Much speculation is being indulged in among the Democrats at present as to who they will nominate for their mayor. A few days prior a number of leading Democrats were mentioned in this connection, and among the names was that of James Hamilton Lewis, the ex-congressman from this state. Mr. Lewis has many friends in this city and many of them would be glad to see him take the nomination, as they feel certain he would be elected, while others equally friendly to him would prefer he not take the nomination, as they think it too small a job for the man. Mr. J. W. Godwin is also spoken of in connection with the nomination, and, if nominated, will be a strong candidate. Speaking about this mayoralty nomination, the Pie-maker met Col. Lewis one day this week, and in mentioning the affair to him Mr. Lewis frankly said: "I am not a candidate for the mayorship nor for any other office in this state. There are but two offices in the whole United States that I want—one is to be president of the United States, that I can give all my friends a federal job, and the other is to be a notary public, in order that I can take the idavavits free of charge of all of my friends wanting federal positions. Only this and nothing more, and I am content." If there is any one man in the state of Washington that can kick up a flurry that man is James Hamilton Lewis. While a member of congress he kicked up more legislative flurries than any other man in the house. It was James Hamilton Lewis who set the war department of this country on fire by "smelling bacon by permit," and from one thing to another he constantly keeps the public in a state of expectancy as to what is next. The last legislature passed a bill referring to the hanging of murderers, and Mr. Lewis having a client that was affected by the measure, came to the front and discovered a flaw in the law and kicked up such a muss that the governor was compelled to call an extra session of the legislature to remedy the evil, which had been pointed out by Mr. Lewis. If this law is remedied the public will wait with bated breath to know what step he will next take to save the neck of Nordstrom, the ten-years convicted criminal that now awaits execution in the King county jail. To the surprise of a number of leading citizens of this community the legislature, which was assembled by Governor Rogers last Tuesday, quickly did its work and adjourned sine die last Wednesday night. Many important things it was thought the legislature would take up, but it refused to do so, and when the conditions were ripe it adjourned as quietly as it had assembled. It repealed the Rands bill and amended the jury bill, passed four bills over the governor's veto and then adjourned. It was a sad rebuke that was administered to Governor Rogers and one that he will remember for a good many days to come. He had vetoed some measures that he hoped would be the end of them, but the legislature having unexpectedly assembled only a few months after he had exercised his vetoing right, the measures were passed over his objections, and now in spite of him they will take their place in the statute books of this state. Lieut. Rawson has proven himself to be a very wise and sagacious representative, and he should be returned to complete the work he has so well begun, which his constituents will doubtless do without murmur or complaint. It is quietly reported that Herman W. Craven will be a candidate for the nomination of prosecuting attorney before the next Republican county convention, and if he is he will get support for the same that he has never before gotten. The Pie-maker is quite certain that he will make the best fight next year that he has ever before made for this office. The smiling countenance of County Clerk Koepfli is again seen at the clerk's office. Mr. Koepfli has just recovered from an appendicitis operation, and is looking unusually well considering his painful experience. No King county officia1 is held in higher esteem by both his employees and the general public than Mr. Koepfli, and all are more than doubly proud to see him at his post of duty fully restored to health. C. A. Koepfli is one of Seattle's most popular business men, and is per- PIANOS You don't know what is the very best possible deal to be made on a piano until you have seen our piano department.

Plimpton, his chief deputy. No man in the state is more conversant with the duties of county clerk than Mr. Plimpton, and Mr. Koepili made a most wise choice in his selection. Deputy County Assessor E. P. Kendall has moved to the city and has taken apartments at the A. B. C. block. Mr. Kendall has made a most efficient officer for his chief, and the Pie-maker surmises that Mr. Kendall himself will warm the county assessor's chair, when Mr. Bailey's term of office will have expired. Last Monday's Associated Press dispatches announced that John D. Rockefeller, the Standard Oil magnate, had informed Prof. Booker T. Washington that he would contribute the money for the erection of a large dormitory for that school, and that Mr. Washington might draw on him for the necessary amount as soon as he liked. This is a God-send in a way to the Tuskegee school, and it will relieve it very materially in its future accommodations for the hundreds of students who wish to attend that school of industry, but who had to be turned away on account of a lack of accommodations. Tuskegee may not have struck natural oil, but it has struck a geyser of Standard Oil. Main 305 is the telephone number of The Republican. PROFESSIONAL CARDS ATTORNEYS AT LAW. E. D. Benson George F.

The tenth and closing week of the Frawley Company at the Grand, ending tomorrow night, has been given up to "Brother Officers," and the play has been generally pronounced one of the very best put on by this splendid organization. On Sunday night the farewell performance of the company will be given. It is the eighty-ninth performance of the Seattle engagement, and will take the form of a testimonial to Mr. T. Daniel Frawley from Manager Cort and the members of the Frawley company. Two plays will be given—their first production in this city, the favorite one-act idyl "The Littlest Girl," by Richard Harding Davis, and the celer comedy, "His Wife's Father." Handsome souvenirs containing portraits of every member of the company will be given to each person attending this performance. THIRD AVENUE THEATRE. "East Lynne," with Manager Russell in the cast, has filled the Third Avenue Theatre at every performance this week. The usual matinee will be given on Saturday and the last performance of "East Lynne" on Saturday night. Next week, commencing Sunday, Davie Crockett will play the play that made the late Frank Mayo famous and one of the most beautiful ideal American dramas ever written, and which will be presented by a strong company augmented for the occasion. Mr. French will play the part of Davie Crockett, a character in which he is especially adapted. PERSONAL Frank's shop for a clean shave. Mr. J. F. Cragwell contemplates leaving for Buffalo the first of July. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Taylor were among the visitors to Tacoma last Tuesday evening. Mrs. John T. Gayton has been quite sick for the past week, but is much better at present. Mr. Black was at Olympia the first of the week and successfully passed an examination for admission to the bar to practice law in this state. Mr. Presto has lost his position at the Lincoln flats owing to the other fellow doing the same work for just half the price he was getting for it. No superintendent for the Franklin and Newcastle mines has been named as yet. It is being hinted that former Superintendent T. B. Corey might return. Mrs. Frank Alfred, who has been a patient at the Providence hospital for the past three weeks, returned to her home at Bremerton last Sunday much improved from her stay therein. Mr. George Turner, who was so badly mashed up in the Northern Pacific wreck near Palmer some time ago, is still unde the weather and is unable to do anything save hobble around the yard. Mr. Walter Beal has returned to Nome. "I have sown my wild oats, and from now I am going to save my money," was what he said to us in confidence as he was shaking hands with his friends preparatory to sailing. Manager William Russell of the Third Avenue Theatre has made a decided hit on the stage this week in "East Lynne." He is as clever a villain as he is business manager, and knows where the public's approval bump is to be found. Some twenty-nve or more persons from Seattle attended the Jacoma reception, and Attorney Hawkuns being among the number, reports that it was one of the most swell affairs that was ever put up among Afro-Americans in the Northwest. Mr. Louis Wilson, who has recently returned from a trip to London, minks England is the only country in the world for a black man. He went across the water as traveling companion for Mr. Frank Waterhouse, who is doing so much for Seattle in general at present. Rev. M. Scott, of the A. M. E church of this city, is making preparations to entertain at the church the evening of July Fourth, at which entertainment a literary programme will be carried out. Patriotism in big broken doses will be the order of the evening, and the public will be invited to participate. Miss Bessie Lloyd, a well-known young lady, who is already prominent in school work in this city, was one of the "sweet girl graduates" at the commencement of the high school last Thursday. She stood first in her class, and gives evidences of becoming one of the foremost educational workers of this city. A letter from J. W. Riggs from Dawson City reports the colored colony in that place doing well. Mrs. Clark is still running a restaurant; Thomas Pierce and Ed Terrell are also running a restaurant; I. I. Walker is following the painting business; Joe Braxton is working on a claim; Mrs. Jones is running a boarding house. He reports the most of the colored citizens doing well and making considerable money. Some of them will come out in the fall, but the most of them seem to be stationed there for all time to come.
