The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VIII., NO. 6 IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Observing Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Negro Business League to Meet in Chicago — Colored Girl Wins Highest Honors in Denver — Colored Soldiers Have Returned From Philippines — In Splendid Condition — Hon. H. C. Smith is Defeated for Re-n nomination. BUSINESS LEAGUE. The National Negro Business League, which is headed by Booker T. Washington as president, has been called to meet in Chicago August 21, 22, and 23, inclusive, and as in the past it is hoped that this meeting will prove a splendid success and will do much toward harmonizing the differences that exist between the white and the black folk of this country. The citizens of Chicago are reported enthusiastic over the prospects of the League holding its next session there, and everything possible will be done by them to make the delegates comfortable while attending its session. The call says any person engaged in commercial enterprises or properly delegated to represent any individual engaged in commercial enterprises is entitled to membership under such regulations as may be adopted. A striking feature about the League is that women as well as men are entitled to seats in the League. So successful was the session of the League which was held in Boston last year that the proceedings have been published in book form, and the same is finding quite a circulation. The call is issued by Booker T. Washington, President; T. Thomas Fortune, chairman executive committee, and E. E. Cooper, Secretary. COLORED GIRL WON At the industrial training school in Denver, Colorado, one Miss Ziporah Josephs the daughter of a Negro brick layer, won the highest honors and of course was the valedictorian of the graduating class. When it was learned that she had stood at the head of her class it caused a commotion among the more aristocratic white students, and they refused for a while to take any part in the graduating exercises, but the school board would not hear to such proceedings, and gave the young ladies their choice of either not graduating at all or to take their places at the commencement exercises, which they did. Miss Joseph is said to be one of the brightest pupils that has ever graduated from that school, and the Denver papers have sung her praise in the highest. This young lady was formerly from New Orleans, where four other sisters took the highest premiums in the Southern University, which is conducted for the benefit of colored students. BLACK BOYS BACK From the San Francisco Examiner it is learned that the Forty-eighth regiment and the second and third battalions of the Forty-ninth regiment, which have been fighting in the Philippines, have just returned and are now quarteted in that city. Both of these regiments are made up wholly of colored men with the exception of the commissioned officers, and they have been doing service in the Philippines for the past year or more. The Examiner is responsible for the assertion that these troops returned in better condition than any other troops have returned from the Philippines, and Colonel Duvall, who has charge of them, is responsible for the following: "On board of the transport there were 2,108 persons, all of whom belonged to the regiment above. The Forty-eighth and Forty-ninth regiments were stationed in Luzon in the country where Aguinaldo was captured. While they had many skirmishes with the enemy, few of their number were killed. The forty-eighth lost only thirty-six men in battle and from disease, the Fortynth, owing to smallpox breaking out in its camp, lost eighty-seven. In both of these regiments the line officers are colored men, while the field officers are white. Seven of the men of the Forty-ninth deserted and joined the ranks of the Philippines, and two of them were afterwards killed. These troops, in my opinion, stand the oli mate of the Philippines much better than the whites, and our government would do well to send more of them over there to do patrol duty, even after the war is over. SMITH TURNED DOWN Hon. Harrison Smith, who has been a member of the Ohio legislature for a number of years and taken a most active part in its deliberations, was defeated for renomination last week, and William Clifford was nominated instead. Both of these gentlemen are men of color, but Mr. Smith has gone out of his way to oppose the ambitions of Mark Hanna and J. B. Foraker, and as a result he was defeated at the primaries at the last primary election held in his district. PERSONAL Shave at Frank's place. What about that 4th of August picnic and outing?

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JULY 5, 1901 PASSING EVENTS Of Men and Things in the Public Mind THE WEEKLY REVIEW Tom Pratt to Quit Public Life—Yale and Harvard Fight for Championship—Jessie Morrison Convicted of Manslaughter in Second Degree—New York Bank Goes to Pieces—Ohio's off Year Politically. TOM PLATT QUITS. Humor has it that Thomas C. Platt, the noted New York politician and wire puller, is to retire from active politics and business in general after the expiration of his present term of office as United States Senator from the State of New York. If the rumor is well founded and Mr. Platt retires one of the shrewdest and most sagacious political leaders that the present age has seen will, using common street vernacular, pass in his political checks. Almost since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary, Tom Platt's name has been prominent in political affairs of the Empire State. He at one time was the junior Senator from New York when the noted Roscoe Conklin held the senior place, and was almost the national dictator of the Republican party. When Garfield turned Conklin down by refusing to appoint his recommendation for a federal position in New York he resigned his seat in the Senate and his associate, Mr. Platt, followed suit. Mr. Conklin made a desperate effort to return to the Senate, but flatly failed, for some time Mr. Platt remained in political retirement, not daring to leave his sulking tent, but later on he got control of the party machinery and was re-elected to the senate, and for a time it looked as though he would become as strong a party leader as was Mr. Conklin in his palmiest days, who died after his defeat, but the appearance of Theodore Roosevelt and Governor Odell on the political horoscope of New York as coming luminaries convinced Mr. Platt early in the fight that he had to play second fiddle to those men or none at all, hence his desire to retire from political life. BIG ROWING MATCH. Thousands of excited as well as enthusiastic persons watched the inter-university rowing match which was between Yale's 'varsity crew and the Harvard team, which resulted in a most decided victory for the Yale team. Much interest is generally taken in these rowing contests between Yale and Harvard, for the reasons that the students from these colleges represent the athletic art in its completeness. Any inter-university contest between Yale and Harvard, whether it be a rowing match, football match, baseball match or a running match, is always given the greatest attention by the thousands that have the pleasure of witnessing it, and even by the thousands that can do nothing more than read of it. If there be anything in the manly art dogma that so much is heard about, it is found in these universities. JESSIE MORRISON GUILTY. Miss Jessie Morrison, the Kansas young woman, who took her girl rival's life, has been found guilty of manslaughter in the second degree by a jury. The first trial proved a failure, as the jury could not agree, but the second trial found her guilty as said above. It is very questionable whether Miss Morrison was guilty of any crime at all; it is also very questionable if she is not guilty of murder in the first degree, but as no one save Morrison and the woman whom she killed were eye witnesses to the terrible tragedy, it will be hard to ever get at the real facts in the case. Miss Morrison on the witness stand and by a long chain of circumstantial evidence convinced the jury that she had been invited into the home of the lady whom she slew, and was no sooner in the house than she was attacker by the woman with a razor, and in order to save herself from being killed she wrenched the nasty blade from the hand of her assailant and turned it upon her. The jury must have had some doubts in their minds as to the truthfulness of this statement or they would not have returned a verdict of manslaughter. Miss Morrison is either guilty of murder in the first degree or she is absolutely innocent and ought to have been acquitted on the grounds of self defense, and the Supreme Court of that State will doubtless rule to that effect. BANK WENT DOWN. The closing of the doors of the Seventh National Bank of New York created consternation in the money markets of New York, and, if reports be true, gave the national treasury officials considerable worry. On the failure of the bank to pay its clearance house indebtedness, which was $664,109, it at once closed its doors against further business. The country banks had learned that this bank was in bad financial condition, and in order to protect themselves they had drawn heavily on it through the clearance house, and its failure to meet their enormous check was the direct cause of its suspension. It is thought that the bank will soon pull itself together and begin business as if nothing had happened. BILLIONAIRES AT SEA. Between Europe and the United States is a vessel on the high seas carrying ten men whose combined wealth would perhaps reach into the billions of dollars. J. Pierpont Morgan did not care to come across the waters as a common cabin passenger, so he and nine other men chartered an entire vessel to bring them home. Each of these men is a noted millionaire of the United States, and each of them has accumulated his millions during his own lifetime, that is to say, by his own ingenuity and financial ability he has started at the bottom of the ladder and has accumulated money and properties that he could exchange for multiplied millions of dollars if he desired to retire to private life and become a miser, as it were, by putting his money into some private hole. It is most remarkable how rapidly men accumulate money in the United States, and it cannot be said that they for the most part accumulate their fortunes by unfair and illegitimate means, for they do not. Some men seem to strike a pay streak in life and work it as fart and as successfully as they may they never succeed in working it out, and Morgan and his nine traveling companions now headed for the United States seem to be of that class. THIS OFF YEAR. Now that Ohio is in the throes of a state election which promises to be a very hotly contested one it might not be out of place at this time to give a brief political history of how elections have gone from time to time in that state and especially since 1877. Ohio is always sadly troubled with what is commonly known as "off year" campaigns, in which the Republican party seriously suffers. In 1877, Bishop, Democratic candidate for governor, was elected by 22,000 plurality, but two years later Foster, Republican candidate, had a plurality of 17,000; in 1881 he was re-elected by a 24,000 plurality, but in 1883 Hoadley, Democrat, was elected over Foraker by a plurality of 12,000. Two years from that time, however, Foraker was elected over Hoadley by 17,451, and two years from that he was re-elected by a plurality of 23,000. Then came 1899, when Campbell defeated Foraker by a plurality of 10,872. In 1891 McKinley carried the state for Governor over Campbell by 21,000 plurality. He was re-elected in 1893 by 80,995 plurality. Ever since that time the state has been Republican, Governor Nash having been elected in 1899 by a plurality of 49,023. This being an "off year" it is argued by Democratic leaders, not only in Ohio, but in other sections of the country, that Ohio is quite likely to elect a Democratic Governor and perhaps a Democratic legislature which in turn will elect a Democratic United States Senator to succeed Senator Foraker.

COMMITTEE REPORTS The Responsibility Laid at the Political Door of the Mayor and His Wide Open Policy—Rev. Randall and Temple are Very Pronounced in Their Ideas of the Situation—Some After Thoughts Concerning the Great Tragedy. The Meredith-Considine tragedy the week prior was the topic on which most of the preachers of this city based the sermons delivered from their pulpits last Sunday, and so far as this paper has been able to REV. E. M. RANDALL, JR. learn the divines were unanimous in charging the tragedy up to the "wide open policy" that has been in vogue in this city ever since the present chief executive has been at the head of affairs. Not only the tragedy of last week, but a long string of crimes equally horrifying in their details as this one can be laid at the official door of the present mayor of Seattle. REV. RANDALL'S OPINION. Perhaps the most pronounced pulpit demonstration along this line was that from Rev. E. M. Randall, Jr., of the First M. E. church, and Rev. W. H. G. Temple of the Congregational church. Rev. Randall discussed crime in its various forms at the outset of his sermon and showed from facts and figures that it costs our government nearly three times as much in dollars and cents to check and punish crime as it does to educate her children. The idea prevalent among so-called business men that a city in order to be a flourishing metropolis and prosperous in its bank clearings report must foster and encourage a certain amount of crime that they are pleased to term, legitimate crime, is a fallacious and erroneous one. The late census shows that those cities and towns in Massachusetts and Kansas that have for the past decade eschewed saloons and the sale of liquors in any form within their corporate limits, increased 40 per cent in their population and wealth over those cities that had granted saloons and other vices license to operate within their gates. There is no doubt but that it costs any community more than twice as much to guard and prosecute criminals where saloons are allowed as the revenues derived from the fines imposed upon them for the privilege of operating in such communities. Speaking about crime in Seattle, it is simply astoundingly, and it is growing worse every day under the present municipal regime. Though the Law and Order League has made efforts to suppress crime in Seattle, it has been handicapped in its efforts on all sides. The so-called business man has his objections, and the weak-kneed Christian, who wishes to drift with the tide, has his objections, and the officers of the laws have their objections to the enforcement of the law. In many instances warrants for the arrest of law breakers are refused by the officers of the law; in some instances officers of the law give the law-breaker the "tip" when warrants have been issued that they may succeed in getting their law breaking paraphernalia out of danger before the arresting officer can get his hand on it. And in one instance, at least, after such paraphernalia had been seized an officer of the law re turned the same to the gamblers when the property was supposed to be in the custody of the courts. That the recent tragedy was a most shocking one, every one will admit, but it was no worse nor no more revolting than a large number of others that have been committed from time to time since the present wide open policy has been in operation in Seattle. A long list of murders and suicides blacken the records of Seattle, covering the past five years, and they are all the fruits of the wide open policy that has been persuaded in Seattle. It has happened that one or two law breakers have been punished by the municipal authorities for committing crime in this city, but this was done more in the spirit of spite work than for the purifying of the moral atmosphere. It is true that the low places of vice kept by the Considines was closed up by the police, but other places equally as vicious and the haunts of criminals of the same kind and class as visited the Considines ran wide open and unmolested. That it is high time that the citizens themselves devise some plan for action in this matter, goes without saying, and unless they do our city will be branded by and large as the most wicked city in the West. REV. TEMPLE'S VERSION. Rev. Temple, after discussing at length the great historical events as well as the great historical characters that the month of June has given to the world, closed his sermon, which was noteworthy for its historical richness, with a peroration on Seattle to the effect, that the month of June had given Seattle her great fire, out of which the Seattle spirit, phoenix-like, rose and quickly rebuilt a grander and far more imposing city on the ruins of the old city than even the most enthusiastic Seattle had ever dreamed of. It is the wonder of the West and the admiration of the entire East. Lastly, the month of June had given Seattle her late tragedy, which was shocking enough to move her citizens to take some most decided steps toward freeing it from the pernicious influences that had made it possible for such a tragedy to be committed. When ex-Chief Meredith fell and his heart's blood stained the floor of Guy's drug store some of the drops spattered the Mayor's chair, and will serve as a gruesome ghost of the policy that has brought such disgrace upon the citizenship of this city. What do the citizens propose to do? Certainly not sit idly by and permit it to go on and on undisturbed. Call a public meeting, arouse indignation, awake men and women to their sense of duty and make them besiege the stronghold of the Mayor with such force that he will find it no longer pleasant or profitable to continue such a state of affairs, and, if necessary, take legal steps to drive him from his official position. It can be done and it will be done, if you and each of you will but put your shoulders to the wheel and work in that direction with a united purpose. CONSIDINE NOT RESPONSIBLE. It is an erroneous idea said one of the members of the Law and Order League, in speaking about the Considine case, which has gone abroad to the effect that John Considine's testimony was instrumental in turning the tide against the police department. While Mr. Considine gave the committee some valuable testimony, nevertheless it was not taken by them without duly considering the source from which it came and the spirit which prompted it. There was other evidence equally as damaging as that given by Mr. Considine, which was given by reputable citizens, and by men of high standing in the community who had been eye witnesses to some of the crooked work that had been going on from time to time in this city under the present administration. It was on the evidence of these men that the committee and the Mayor acted after the committee had made its report, which caused the removal of two police officers. The Law and Order League under no consideration would have depended solely on John Considine or any other gambler for evidence to remove an officer of the law, but as said above, on the evidence of good and reputable men, who told what they knew and not what they had heard, the committee reached its conclusions. The preliminary trial of the Considines has been put off until next Monday but mutual consent of both the prosecution and the defense. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE. FIVE CENTS All that was mortal of the late W. L. Meredith was laid to rest last Sunday in the Lake View cemetery. Thousands of people, perhaps more out of morbid curiosity than real sympathy, attended the funeral. The remains were followed through the streets by a large concourse of Woodmen and sympathizers. Mayor Humes has announced the permanent appointment of Chief Sullivan and he is already shaping things in the department so as to make the best of the situation. Already many of the vicious denizens of the lower end have found it convenient and desirable to leave for parts unknown. Many going to Nome and other Alaska points. It is announced that Will H. Morris, better known as Big Bill Morris, is to take part in defending the Considines. Admitting that John and Tom Considine have not been ideal citizens, still, they are entitled to a fair and impartial trial, and should be placed on trial for the shooting of Meredith, and not for what they may have done prior to that shooting, is street comment. It was a rather gruesome spectacle, when the dead body of a human being is put on exhibition by his so-called friends, having no other object in view than to manufacture public sentiment for political purposes and which might have some bearing on the case against some person in the toils of law. Some men are mean, low and contemptible enough to rob the grave in order to carry their point. If the coroner's jury was not the work of the shrewd and sagacious politician it would so appear on the face of the facts. Rattner curious that only men noted for their devotion to the Humes administration should have been selected to act on that jury. It is also rather striking that men, who were talking personal violence the day before should sit in judgment, if judgment it may be called, on the very man that they were wanting to harm the day before. This may be a square deal, but The Republican don't see it that way. For the past week the Times and the * have had the Consumes on trial for murder in the first degree and a verdict of guilty as charged may be returned at any time by the jury that has been empanelled and sent out by Judges Blethen and Wells. It is too bad that these papers do not allow the courts to try the criminal cases in this county. Quite a few threats have been heard on the streets to the effect if the Considines are acquitted by the courts they will be murdered as soon as they leave the courthouse. REV. W. H. TEMPLE The Third Avenue theater will close its doors for a short time after the performance next Sunday night. "Too Much Johnson," William Gillette's pet farce comedy, will be the closing bill of the season. The performance of "Too Much Johnson" given by Russell and Drew's company, is one of the best things seen here this season. It is a clean and wholesome laugh from beginning to end. "Alone in Greater New York" has been the bill all this week and has drawn big houses. The last performance of that play will be given Saturday night and "Too Much Johnson" repeated for Sunday night only. During the closed season the theater will undergo a thorough renovation and open bright and clean early in August. The attractions booked for next season are numerous and of a higher class than ever before offered at a popular priced house.

It does appear that Vice President Roosevelt has taken to the woods these days, and if he has there is one thing certain, he is busy sawing wood for the presidential kindling in 1904. With Mark Hanna and J. B. Foraker pulling together for the same thing, there seems to be little doubt but that the Republicans, off year though it be, will win with a whoop over in Ohio this year. The Ballard Register after all is making a most commendable fight for an existence, and Editor Hitchcock is to be complimented. He is even making a better paper than his opponent, much older in years and prestige than his paper. If Hon. W. M. Meredith had written his son the same kind of a letter some five years ago that he did of recent date, and had his son heeded its advice, there is no doubt but that his earthly ending would have been different from what it was. While the eagle did not scream in Seattle on yesterday, it screamed with all of its might and main in the neighboring towns, and the Seattle people enjoyed it just as well as though it had been screaming up and down the streets of Seattle. For artistic neatness The Republican's business directory has not an equal among the weekly newspapers of the entire state. Now, you show your friendship and appreciation of a worthy cause by getting in and helping along. When an editor attempts to please everybody in the columns of his paper then he pleases nobody, and as a result of his foolish attempt a paper is forced upon the public that is not worth the ink it takes to make the letters on the paper. It is like unto salt that has lost its savour. The census report will show that in Massachusetts those towns that have strictly refused to grant any saloon license to sell liquors have grown at least 40 per cent more than those towns that have had saloons. The same is true of the towns in Kansas that have stood out against rum shops and saloons being run therein, which is a strong evidence that prohibition not only prohibits, but that it likewise protects. According to an exchange Weary Willies give Kansas a wide berth now, owing to the fact that there are two jobs for every man in the state at present, and if there is anything that a Weary Willie would break his neck in getting away from, it is a job that will pay him good wages. It is a startling fact, though true, that it costs more for police protection and criminal prosecution for a city having a wide open policy than any such city ever gets from fees and fines from those who pay for the privilege of conducting such business. In other words, the costs run away with the profit. The Fourth of July caused some commotion, even in Atlanta, Georgia. Well, that is rather remarkable, for we never heard of any patriotism in any of the Southern states before. Time brings great changes, and if it has brought patriotism to the South it is the greatest change of all. It is noted that the Kansas Democrats have refused to continue a fusion with the Populists of that state and will nominate a ticket of their own. That should give the Populists no great amount of worry, for the Democrats never cast over 10 per cent of the vote in Kansas, and yet they have always gotten 75 per cent. of the offices. Our latter day civilization has produced an awful struggle between crime and the prevention of crime, with the odds in favor of the former. This great civilization of which we talk so much has some queer streaks and some streaks that do not always appear best to humanity, regardless of the many good things that can be said in its favor. There seems to be no doubt but that the Republican party has been supplying the Democrats with their presidential campaign issues, and the laughable thing about it is that it always supplies them with issues that the Republicans could readily turn down at the polls and they have not failed to do so.

Temple is of the opinion that the citizens should call a public meeting to discuss the situation of this city and to condemn the administration that has placed the affairs of Seattle in their present condition, and this sentiment is voiced by a majority of the citizens of Seattle, regardless of their politics, religion or former affiliations. Even the White River Journal has come out editorially and pronounced Chief Sullivan as one of the few men in police circles "which the breath of suspicion has never reached." The Republican is quite well aware of that fact, and so are the populace of Seattle, but they never thought that the White River Journal would have editorial stamina enough to publish the fact. It begins to look now as though the tariff will be the principal issue of the next presidential campaign. Well, why wouldn't it? It has been the tariff, which was fathered by President McKinley, that has given the country its present prosperity, and any attempt on the part of any party to overthrow this should call forth the entire opposition of every person that has enjoyed the past five years of general prosperity. Wanamaker, of anti-Quay fame, has broken loose again over in Philadelphia, and is making the political atmosphere of that city rather torrid for the followers of Mr. Quay. We would not be surprised one of these days if Wanamaker didn't keep hammering away at Quay until he would convince the people of Philadelphia that he, Wanamaker, was right, and administer a rebuke to Mr. Quay which would result in his undoing. A move has been made by the United States government to induce farmers to raise their own fish, which it is claimed can be as readily done as the raising of one's chickens or pork. Whenever a farmer has a pond or stream on his farm, the fish commissioners will supply him with a sufficient amount of fish to start on, and if he will use diligence in their preservation, he will soon have a sufficient supply of fish that he can take for table use whenever he desires. Down at South Bend, this state, they have been having quite a murder trial, in which one Manuel Gates was the principal actor in the affair, and the Willipa Harbor reviews the case as follows: Manuel Gates, convicted of murder in the first degree, November 20, 1900; granted a new trial January 8, 1901; convicted of manslaughter June 27, 1901; refused a third trial Friday, June 28, 1901; sentenced to six years in the penitentiary the same day. Now, if the attorneys down there are anything like the attorneys up here it will be six years before the man goes to the penitentiary, if at all. JUNE 14—THE FLAG'S BIRTHDAY. In the shadows of the scepter, In the gloom of doubts and fears, In the gray uncertain morning Of the fater coming years, The beating being, Found its stripes of red and white In the blood of sons and fathers And the purity of right, Took its field of blue from heaven, Gemmed it with the stars that shone And accustomed the Freedom From the terrors of a throne. Gone today are all the shadows, Gone are all the doubts and fears, And the Starry Banner triumphs At the ages of the years; In the vanguard of the nations, With its gleaming folds unfurled, Into higher paths of progress It has led, leads the world; It stands today to reclaim That no other flag can claim, And the freedom of nature Is established in its name; Wollen out unto all peoples With the promise and good cheer, Old Glory gives them through To the far as to the near; The patriots give their spirit To the warriors to them through The wilderness to glory, And their banner still is true. Hurrah, then, for the birthday Of the flag that is not furlied, And army is celebration Extend around the world; And may all men and nations Know the Stars and Stripes to be The gospel of salvation And the freedom of the free.

ADERS The Fourth of July coming in the week just past and the Pie-maker not feeling like drawing on his political imagination, and believing the readers would as soon listen to another on this occasion, cheerfully gives way to the Spokane Outburst, whose last week's article is herewith copied in full. The politicians and newspapers of this great and good State of Washington have been having a most interesting time among themselves for the last three weeks; all because Senator Foster announced his intention of appointing Charlie Hopkins United States marshal for this commonwealth, and Charlie says that he intends to take the place and is preparing to remove his family to Tacoma. In all the discussion of this subject there is but one thing upon which all are united—the appointment of Charlie Hopkins means something. What that something is there are as many opinions as there are parties to the discussion. The theory at first spread broadcast was that a truce had been patched up by the leaders of the warring factions in the Republican party of this State and that this cueil war, which has threatened the future of the party in the state, was to be a thing of the past. This theory went further and declared that Foster, Ankency and Wilson had formed a combination, and that this triumvirate was prepared to rule the Republicans of Washington with an iron hand. All this theorizing was very pretty, but in the eyes of practical politicians whose experience was gained by hard mixing in the struggles at the polls, the condition pictured was too idyllic to have any existence in fact. An alliance of Foster, Ankeny and Wilson would be a fine combination, but one difficult to achieve without remodeling the constitution of the United States, as there are at present only two senatorships allowed in each state, and all these gentlemen could not be satisfied unless there were three. As already recited, all the best informed people sniffed at the idea of a triumvirate and at this date I think nobody will deny they were right. This general adjudication of difficulties is a nice thing on paper, but it is a pretty scarce event in every day life. Considerable surprise has been expressed at the supposed turning down of State Senator Baker of Klickitat county. Ever since early last year it had been tacitly understood that in the Foster shakeup of the federal brigade Baker was to have the marshalship. To such an extent has this fact been circulated around that no other name has been mentioned in connection with the office, and Clarence Ide, the present incumbent, did not even make a fight for reappointment, setting his cap instead for the equally good berth of collector of customs of the Puget Sound district. The reasons for the sudden change of heart on the part of Baker is a matter upon which few policians of the state appear to have any information. One west side paper has suggested that in return for his abandoning his claim in this matter he is to have the Republican nomination for governor in 1904. That reads absurd, and personally I am satisfied that it is a decidedly bad guess. Baker is not'a bad sort of a fellow, but he is not of the timber of which governors are made. His nomination would be a stroke of business closely paralleling the ten-strike of last summer, when J. M. Frink was turned loose on his disastrous career. That, however, is foreign to the subject. What I started out to explain were Baker's reasons for declining the marshalship. It seems that when the time for the appointment approached Baker got to thinking the matter over, and it did not take him long to come to the conclusion that for him to accept the marshalship would be a decidedly bad step from a business standpoint. Baker is the owner of a prosperous mercantile business at Goldendale. If he accepted the marshalship he would have to move to Tacoma, and that would necessitate the closing out of his Goldendale business. He could not see the financial advantage attached to giving up a source of permanent income to accept a political job that would yield no greater profit and would not last to exceed four years in the ordinary course of political affairs in this state. Baker therefore notified Senator Foster that he no longer wanted the marshalship and an immediate reconstruction of lines took place, as a result of which Baker is to stay in Klickitat county and will continue his business at Goldendale, and is to be appointed Indian agent at a post in that vicinity, the duties of this latter place being such that they will not interfere with his regular business. It is the opinion of the Outburst that the selection of Charlie Hopkins for the marshalship does signify the inauguration of a campaign to secure harmony in the Republican ranks, but it is on a different tack from that calculated in the earlier guesses. Senator Foster, wants harmony in the Republican party of the state, but he wants it to be that particular variety of harmony that will give himself and his friends the control of the politics of the state. To an outsider it appears that Senator Foster has awakened to the importance of his position in control of the federal patronage, and that he means to use that power with two definite objects in view; the disintegration of the present virulent factions in this state and the upbuilding of a federal brigade that will give him complete control of the party machinery. The announced intention to appoint Charlie Hopkins marshal and B. D. Crocker of Walla Walla Puget Sound collector would seem to confirm this theory. Hopkins bears about the same relation to Wilson that Crocker does to Ankony; both are accounted the first lieutenants of their leads. What more natural then, if Foster has a federal brigade bee buzzing in his bonnet, than that the two most important places at his disposal be given to the lieutenants of the two bitterest factions? It is very apparent that if this plan is continued on down through the other leaders of the factions that it will be only a matter of a short time when the other factions will lose their grip and that Foster will hold a firm upper hand. The length of his lease upon this power will depend greatly upon the wisdom with which he makes his appointments. Able, but a temporary control by Foster is within the limits of probability. I cannot believe it possible that Foster and Ankeny have entered into a permanent alliance. In the first place Foster has everything to lose and nothing to gain by such a tie-up, with the possible exception of the undying opposition of the hundreds of politicians who have sworn that they will never willingly seat "Check" at the national capital. It is true that there was some kind of a combination at the late lamented legislature, but my information is to the effect that that was for some small railroad matters in which Mr. Grosscup was interested. Foster holds the whip hand in federal patronage. The only man he has to fear is John L. Wilson, whose following is personal and extends beyond any probability of federal reward. If the senatorial fight were tomorrow Levi Ankeny could not go down to Olympia with any particular strength. He would have a few votes at his back, but to achieve anything the old check book game would have to be placed again. Ankeny has nothing to deliver to a political combination. If he could fix up such a combination he would be a powerful factor, but the two of them would by no means wield the power that Senator Foster has it within his hands to swing alone. Senator Foster has now very few men who are personally unfriendly to him. The bitterness in the Republican ranks is principally between Wilson and the Ankeny factions, with some minor troubles thrown in to provide good measure. Should the junior senator tie up with the Walla Walla banker he would simply assume the Ankeny end of the row and the difficulties with the party would be complicated instead of adjusted. Senator Foster has it within his power to do much toward settling the differences between the warring factions, but he can never do that by taking sides in the controversy and drawing upon himself the opposition of the strongest and most pugnacious of the scrappers. It is generally conceded that E. H. Guie, of Seattle, will succeed Will R. Gay as district attorney. Mr. Guie is well remembered as speaker of the house in 1899, and also was candidate for governor last year. He made a good fight in his King county canvas for the governorship, being recognized as the Foster candidate for that honor. Personally, Mr. Guie looks like a boy just turning his majority, but he possesses considerable legal ability and has a large personal following in King county. Mr. Guie would make an ideal leader for the AT GRAHAMS A REAL BARGAIN IN JACKETS On account of being overstocked you will have the Chance of the Season to get a First Class Summer Jacket at a small proportion of its real value.

He is, by the way, an enthusiast in all movements looking to the advancement of the young Republicans. The old occupation of counting John J. Wilson a dead one is still followed by some politicians, with about as much warrant in fact as usual. John L. Wilson will never be a dead one as long as he continues to mix in the politics of this state. He is too busy a worker to allow himself to be counted out. At the present writing he has better than a fighting chance of controlling Spokane and King counties and with backing like that any man is formidable in state politics. It is within the limits of possibility that Senator Foster may gain the control of Spokane county politics, if he chooses to play a peacemaker's hand, but if he comes into the game with Ankenyism as the card up his sleeve he has a pretty hard task in front of him. The fat federal appointments belonging to Spokane county are not many, and unless they are placed just about right the federal machine will fall considerably short of controlling the county delegation. The acquisition of Charlie Hopkins alone will not secure for Senator Foster the control of this county. Neither will the services of any other one man. It is possible that by organizing a federal brigade out of the present political leaders a winning machine will be constructed, but the task cannot possibly be considered a snap. The three best places left in this county are the two berths at the land office and the postmastership. After an heroic fight against police methods in Seattle The Republican, of that city, now that the chief of police has been forced to resign, is quietly ignored and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, that kept comparatively mum upon the subject until Editor Cayton was arrested for his utterances, now comes forward modestly and takes all the glory. If this doesn't show gall of the highest order the Chronicle does not know what would. If there has been any honor in this fight against the Seattle police, Editor Cayton is entitled to it, and the Post-Intelligencer should have manliness enough to so accord it.—Elma Chronicle. Mr. J. Edward Hawkins, a prominent citizen of Seattle and a very influential member of our race in every walk of life, having successfully practiced law in the Queen City of Washington for many years, and now holding an important place on the Republican Central Committee of King county, has been in the city during the week, engaged in the work of organizing a lodge of new degree in the order of Negro Masonry. Mr. Hawkins has met with excellent success in propagating a camp of Mystic Shriners for Washington and Oregon, many members of the local lodge of Colored Masons, Enterprise No. 4, enthusiasmically allying themselves with the new organization of Shriners. Mr. Hawkins is a very able and popular man, and he leaves no doubt in the minds of those who meet him that his heart is in the work in which he is now engaged.—New (Portland) Age.

Increasing Number of Unions Between Whites and Negroes. During the past five years there has been a decided increase in the number of marriages in New York between white and colored people. In 1895 there were 729 such marriages, 369 Negroes having married white women and 360 colored women having been married to white men. Last year there were 1,846, in which 920 Negro women were married to white men and 926 Negroes married white women. One man whose position has enabled him to make continued and thorough observations of conditions in the lives of the other half of New York's population, has this to say on the subject: "I have met scores of these mixed couples and so far as the principles are concerned I do not believe that they are as a rule either more happy or more miserable than their neighbors who have wedded like with like. They have as few squabbles and as few divorces proportionately as couples that are wholly white or wholly black. "The children, however, are not so fortunate. It is difficult for the little tots to place themselves. They are outcasts from both white and colored flocks and when members of the same family are ranged on different sides of the color line, as is frequently the case, their situation is the more pitiable. "My observation has further taught me that a colored man makes a better husband for a white woman than a white man for a colored woman. The reason of this is not far to seek. The former seems to feel that he has been honored beyond measure by being accepted by a white woman and he will willingly work his fingers to the bone to support her and her children in good style. "The white man, on the other hand, figures that he has degraded himself by marrying a colored woman and he yents his displeasure over the situation by letting his wife bear the burden of supporting the entire family. It is such despicable fellows as these that are at the root of the trouble whenever the woes arising from a mixed marriage are aired in court. "So far as I can find out nineteenth of these mixed marriages result from coemployment of the races. The selection of servants without regard to racial characteristics is common in most city families and public houses, and men and women of all shades of black and white are thus thrown together. If this close acquaintance reveals congeniality of temper the question of color is eliminated from the matrimonial discussions, and for the time, at least, each appears to lose sight of the other's complexion. "Another thing worth noting is that the white partner in these combinations is usually a foreigner. People from other countries have not the save aversion to the Negro that is implanted in the American breast, and the man and the woman new to our customs see nothing out of the way in a union with a person with a swarthy skin. If you come down to statistics you will see that the number of English people married to colored people in New York exceeds any other nationality two to one. "As to the residences of these hybrid families, they are scattered around all over town. There is one little colony of them over on West Thirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh streets and another up on the east side. To speak of their social life is not easy because it is something that they have very little of. Still they manage to get as much enjoyment out of living as most other people in their environment, and were it not for the uncertain status of the children I should not be prepared to say that mixed marriages are at all a bad institution."—Ex. Beautiful Swiss and Italian Views. From the earliest times Switzerland has been famed for the majestic grandeur of its mountain scenery, and Italy for the ravishing beauty of its many picturesque lakes. The very names of the Bernina Hospice, St. Moritz, the Jungfrau, Lake Como, Lake Maggiore, the Lake of Lucerne call up entrancing visions of marvelous valleys, peaks and glaciers, frowning mountain passes, castled shores, and gleaming stretches of glassy water under soft azure skies. To see these enchanting sights even in pictured form is to introduce a broadening influence and a wider outlook into one's life. In a forthcoming issue of The Ladies' Home Journal a vivid idea of the Engadine Valley and of some of the Swiss and Italian lakes will be given in a double-page of the most remarkable views ever secured of the more wonderful and lovelier portions of these world renowned regions. An Author as Well as an Artist. George Gibbs, whose charming picture on the cover of The Ladies' Home Journal for July has so successfully caught the spirit of summer days at West Point, is one of the growing band of American artists who are also authors. Hitherto his special field has been the naval side of ocean life. He is a young man—a comparative newcomer in the ranks where F. Hopkinson Smith, Howard Pyle and Frederic Remington are veterans. But his early promise as an illustrator, as well as a writer, is already bearing fruit. The Great Northwest's First White Child. One of the most remarkable proofs of the amazing growth of that vast region of our country commonly called the Northwest, with its numerous sisterhood of states and its population of more than seven million people, is the fact that it is only a little more than eighty years since the first white baby was born there. The child was a girl, the daughter of a regular army officer, and she is still living. A fascinating account of her eventful life, the early years of which were spent among soldiers and savages, will appear in an early issue of The Ladies' Home Journal. NOTICE TO CREDITORS.
