The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VIII.. NO. EVENTS Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. THE WEEKLY REVIEW Uncle Sam's Trade With South America—Sampson-Schley Controversy—France's Flying Machine in Success—Bryan's Lamentation at His Political Overthrow—South Carolina Democrats Split in Twain-Boers Breathing Their Last—Kruger Dying in Exile. The countries of South America are becoming quite a factor in the financial affairs of the United States and for no other reason than on account of the trade relations that have steadily grown between these two countries since the memorable Pan-American conference, which was planned and carried out by the immortal James G. Blaine. While some of the South American government still look upon the United States with distrust, believing that she has an eye single to absorb that entire country, yet firms are freely exchanging trade relations with her, and a few figures from year to year on the subject will prove the truthfulness of the assertion. In 1890 the total exports to South America from the United States were $38,752,648; in 1901 the exports from the United States to South America had increased to $45,181,000, and to Central America to $7,020,000; to the West Indies to $49,100,000 and to Mexico $37,000,000 showing that our trade on the whole to the Latin American countries had grown from $90,531,000 in 1890 to $138,300,000 in 1901. While this is not what it should be and what it would be and what it will be if the proper steps are only taken by the commercial men of this country, nevertheless it shows a marked increase over what it was prior to the Pan-American conference. SCHLEY-SAMPSON CONTROVERSY. SCHLEY-SAMPSON CONTROVERSY The controversy which has been going on between Admiral Sampson and Admiral Schley, as to who was entitled to the victory won by Uncle Sam's naval fleet at Santiago, ever since the memorable battle was fought, is now being investigated by a court of inquiry, and it is hoped that the real facts will be brought out and the honor will be given to him to whom it is due. Schley's friends have from time to time insisted that he won the day on that occasion, while Sampson's friends are equally positive that he won the day. The Republican believes that Admiral Sampson won Santiago's victory. It believes that Admiral Schley took an active part in the fight and doubtless watched it from his flagship, as did the other naval officers, but there seems to be no doubt that Admiral Sampson planned all of the details for the fight in the Spanish fleet attempted to escape, and though perhaps Admiral Schley did carry out the orders of the commander in chief, Sampson, he is entitled to no great amount of honor for obeying orders. If Schley's contention be sustained then the popular belief that General Grant won many battles and finally captured General Lee, would be only an idle dream. All of his under generals could step in and, under such a ruling, claim the honor, as they executed his orders, and might perhaps truthfully say that General Grant was either in the rear or was by no means in the thickest of the fight when success came to his forces. Admiral Schley was the underling at the Santiago battle and should expect no more than others who were compelled to obey orders on that occasion. PERFECT FLYING MACHINE. If M. De Santos Dumont's flying machine proves as huge a success as he now believes that it will do, aerial navigation will soon become as common as automobiles, and an up-to-date family without a flying machine will be very few and far apart. The automobile at present is out of the reach of the average working man, but it will sooner or later be reduced in price so that a laboring man can be the possessor of a splendid automobile and thus be able to give his family a spin about the city and into the country without very much expense. If, as said above, Dumont's flying machine is the success that a great many scientists now believe that it will be, the flying machine will finally be on a par with the automobile, and it will then only be a question of time when it will become as common to the middle classes as it is to the wealthy classes, and a man will have his family out flying in mid air with all the ease and safety as riding in a railroad car. Inventors have been struggling to perfect a flying machine for the use of man almost since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary, but it seems that Dumont, a young Frenchman, has come nearer solving the problem than anyone who has ever undertaken it. His invention, which was recently put on exhibition in Paris, did all and even more than was expected that it would do when turned loose in the air, and ascended and descended to the ground at the will of the operator. BRYAN BADLY BEATEN. It was pathetic almost beyond measure to see how hard the immortal William Jennings Bryan took his final overthrow in the Democratic party. First one state and then another has made onslaughts on Bryanism, but the climax was reached a few days ago when Ohio, possessing the most powerful organization north of Mason and Dixon's line, struck it a body blow below the belt and Bryanism was perhaps put to sleep for all time to come. William Jay, who had furnished the wind and water for this political machine since 1896, made desperate efforts to blow new life into the political corpse, but it would not go; it had seen better days; the struggle was ended, and it yielded up the ghost. Visionary as was William Jennings Bryan, nevertheless he caused more political consternation among the voters and business men of this country than any one man since the republic was first organized, and had this master mind been inclined to support measures that would have advanced the commercial interests of the country instead of blocking it, the United States would have never possessed a more remarkable man than he, but, like the old man from the country who remarked that his friend, Mr. Jones, was the smartest man in the world, but it all ran to devilment, so it seems to have been with Mr. Bryan. He is now a thing of the past, and peace be to his ashes. DEMOCRACY SPLIT. It is worthy of more than passing notice to read of Tillmanism pitch-forking Senator McLaurin out of the Democratic party in South Carolina. Owing to the force of circumstances, Senator Tillman was for the present able to hold his opponent up to political ridicule, not only in South Carolina, but all over the country, but it is he who laughs last who laughs best, and The Republican predicts that before another five years will have passed Tillmanism will be completely swamped by McLaurinism in South Carolina, which will spread to other Southern states. The conditions that now exist in the South cannot continue, and the political internicine war that has broken out in South Carolina will become common to the South, and it will result in the disfranchisement embargo, which has been placed upon the Negro of that section, being raised and he will be given his full political rights in order to help the various factions out in their respective struggles for supremacy. VALE THE TRANSVAAL From bad to worse the government over which the venerable Paul Kruger, more commonly known as Oom Paul, has from time to time been driven and struggle as though the Boers could or did they must now see their doom and realize their final overthrow at the hands of Great Britain. "He that soweth to the wind will surely reap a whirlwind," and this the Boers most assuredly did and they are now reaping the inevitable results of their sowing. Their president an exile from home, is not only an exile, but is fast tottering to his grave. His soldiers and his generals are either prisoners at St. Helena or guerrillas in South Africa striking spasmodic blows here and there without very much effect. Mrs. Kruger, who for years was the moving spirit of the republic, passed away one day, last week and this threw another great gloom over the disheartened people and so weakened Mr. Kruger that his days are now numbered. What a pity that more consideration was not used on the part of Mr. Kruger and his advisors in the framing of their republic in South Africa, by making friends instead of enemies out of the natives and subsequently by offering fight instead of diplomacy to the British government. There no longer exists any government or any form of government for the British to treat with, interpose as much as the European powers might or will. The Boer population has been reduced to a few guerrillas and there is but a wreck of a onece prosperous republic left to tell the tale. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1901 BROTHER IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Observing Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Afro-Americans Need Civil Service—They Shout Too Loud for the Governor—Chicago's Big Church in Danger of Being Scaled—Colored Men Not Good Moulders—Bishop Gaines Sails for Europe—Talks on the Negro Problem in This Country at Length. CIVIL SERVICE STICKLERS. No class of American citizens should be stronger sticklers for civil service than the Afro-American, for the reason that it affords him an opportunity, so far as the general government is concerned, to get a place and position that he otherwise could not possibly get if left to the selection of private individuals. Within the past two years in the city of Seattle, three colored persons have taken the civil service examination, and, remarkable to say, each of them stood first or third on the list in the class with whom they took the examination, and with such standings each of them have been able to get good work and not only steady positions, but fairly good wages. The recent selection of Eugene Harris as official stenographer at Walla Walla is a position that he could not have gotten under any circumstances had he applied to some congressman or to some register of the land office, for however capable he might have been the position would have been refused him for no other reason than on account of his color, but he took the examination and was assigned to duty almost at once. The educated Afro-American therefore should have nothing but praise for civil service, that is civil service indeed, and when municipalities will have adopted civil service and reduced it to a business proposition, and then men who are able to pass the examination will be the men selected regardless of their party politics or their nationality, then it will see good results. GOV. BECKHAM OBJECTS Over in Kentucky and even in a number of exchanges edited by colored men, a strong condemnation has been registered by-the colored folk on account of Governor Beckham objecting to having a colored church built on a lot adjoining his home in Frankfort Ky. So bitterly opposed to the proposition is he that he threatens to have the capitol of the state removed from Frankfort if the church goes up. The Republican sees nothing to condemn the governor for on this point and if the colored folk themselves will stop and consider, they will remember that they serve God more demonstratively than any other race, many of them pray as though He were deaf, and their shouts and hallelujahs mingled with their excitable prayers, especially in a large congregation, are by no means pleasant even to colored folk themselves who do not believe in that way of serving the Lord, and if the governor is satisfied in his mind that the congregation that contemplates building by the side of him will prove just such a demonstrative congregation as is mentioned above, he should not be condemned for not wanting the church built by the side of his home. Kentucky rebels do a whole lot of things that deserve the condemnation of all good people, but here is one objection from them that is deserving of a fair and impartial consideration before being condemned. QUINN CHAPEL'S DANGER. It is learned from the Inter Ocean that the large, commodious church edifice known as Quinn Chapel in Chicago, is in danger of being sold under a mortgage foreclosure. Quinn Chapel is perhaps the largest church edifice in the United States in the possession of colored folk, and it is estimated that it has the largest congregation of any church in the country. No church in Chicago, regardless of the nationality, has as many regular visitors as this church, and it seems rather remarkable that it should not be able to maintain itself and prevent the property from being sold under the hammer. The debt against the church amounts to $7,000 and at a rally a few Sundays ago the pastor, Rev. A. J. Cary, succeeded in raising $2,500, and not being able to move beyond that notch, he has all but despaired of raising the other $5,000, and unless some one takes hold of it the property valued at not less than $25,000 will be lost, which the A. M. E. Church can ill afford to lose. If, therefore, the pastor can go no further it seems that it would be meet and proper for the A. M. E. organization to step in and raise the necessary funds and thereby prevent; the connection from losing a valuable piece of property. WORTHLESS WORKERS. In the Metal Worker, a weekly journal published in New York and Chicago, some very interesting facts are learned about the Negro as a moulder. They are not only interesting facts, but they should prove very salient lessons to the young Negro, who is coming forward in this day and generation to compete with his brother in white. Some twenty years ago it was thought by many of the operators of foundries in the South that the Negro promised to revolutionize foundry work through out not only the South, but the entire United States. He seemed by nature an adept to the business, and owing to the fact that he naturally lived cheaper than the white man, it was thought that those employed in foundries would soon become wealthy citizens from their earnings, but nineteen years of experience have proven far different than was anticipated, for the writer declares that at the present time there is but one foundry in the South that employs Negroes as moulders and this one does so more for policy's sake than for real merit. The reason that they are not given places as moulders, is that they do not do their work systematically nor do they ever learn the difference in the articles which they are moulding. So carless are they about their work that they are left completely out in this business. If the Negro of this age intends to compete in the working world he had better learn a lesson from this and practice punctuality and study the art of doing his work the most successful way, and whenever he has finished a piece of work, let it be done with neatness and dispatch and be able to favorably compare with that done by any other man, regardless of his nationality or lot in life, or he will never be more than a hewer of wood or a drawer of water. BISHOP GAINES TALKS. Among the noted Afro-Americans that have gone to Europe this summer is Bishop W. J. Gaines and daughter, who will spend some four months touring Europe. Bishop Gaines is noteworthy as being the second bishop in the A. M. E. church as to service, the bishop ranking him being Rev. H. M. Turner. He is also noteworthy because of the fact that he has written a number of books, which have been very favorably received by the general reading public. Though he was born a slave and is far from being a classic student, yet his books show profundity of thought, clean cut sentences, each of which strikes the vital point, and, in short, they show the work of a scholar rather than a cobbler. Prior to sailing in an interview in the New York Times he used the following language touching on the race question of this country: "I am not in favor of any radical measures to improve the conditions of the Negro. We must work out our salvation by degrees. "I have perhaps a novel theory along this line. It is that the Negro shall imitate the Jew. Some years ago a certain hotel in Saratoga objected to the Jews as guests. You know what the Jews did? They bought the hotel. That's what I preach to my people. Be saving educate yourselves, be law-abiding; become substantial citizens, and you will one day have a power they can't wrest from you. "It is not the old people of the South who are so bitter against the Negro, it is the younger element. They have bitter views and feelings against us that their fathers did not entertain; they are not so kind." TWINKLING * LIES. Persons who were present at the time the Negro found under the bed of some young ladies in this city one day this week was arrested, say the report in the little twinkling * to the effect that there was talk of lynching the man was a most flagrant as well as malicious lie and such was published by it for sensational effect. Nine tents of all that measly sheet published day in and day out are lies and deceptions and this is only one of many. The business men of this city would rather a hundred times over lynch the head of that lying sheet than a hundred rapists, be their color white or black. It advocates anarchy, revolution and everything damnable and the business men of Seattle who patronize it are only giving succor to an institution that is fostering riots and revolution. Of all the rapes that have occurred in this city no talk of lunching was ever before heard of until there was a black man in it. REALM OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Ouasi Christians, PECULIAR CUSTOMS Christian Endenovend Grown Very Rapidly—The Pan-Americanian Exposition Runs on Sunday—Christian Scientists Galning Grounds—Religious Congress Holds Seventh Annual Session—Cuban Catholics in Financial Crisis—England's Methodist Lay Preachers. CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR. It might be of interest to persons of religious inclination to learn that the twentieth annual convention of the Christian Endeavor Society, which was recently held in Cincinnati and which was organized by Francis E. Clark, has now a membership of 4,000,000, with 61,427 distinct societies. The constitution of this organization is printed in thirty different languages and the indications are that by the time it is half a century old, it will have a membership of not less than 10,-000,000 and be one of the most powerful religious organizations in the world. PAN-AMERICAN SUNDAY Much pressure was brought to bear on the directors of the Pan-American Exposition to have them close the grounds on Sunday, but the desire on the part of the directors to make the Exposition pay, proved a more potential influence than the religious pressure, hence despite the fact that much attention and consideration has been given to religion in various ways by the directors of the Exposition, the grounds are thrown open the same on Sundays as on Monday, and probably has larger crowds on that day than any other. The desire of the city folk to have a Sunday outing has destroyed much of the old Puritanic spirit and it is not considered very much of a branch of religious belief and faith to go out and spend a pleasant Sunday in innocent amusement during the summer season. GAINING GROUNDS. Christian Science, whether good or bad, is fast becoming strongly fixed in the minds of many of the citizens of this country, and that, too, to an almost alarming extent, Legal steps in many cities have already been taken to prevent minors and irresponsible persons from being treated by Christian Scientists, but responsible persons are permitted the habit of being treated by this faith cure imposition to grow upon them. That the whole theory is as false as it is foolish is beyond a question, and it is most remarkable that persons of good sound mind and well deuced would permit themselves to be imposed upon by imposters of such a low type. MET IN BUFFALO. During the week ending July 18, the seventh annual congress of the religions of the world was held in Buffalo, N. Y., and it was largely attended by delegates from all parts of the world. The Jew, the Greek, the Gentile, and all other religious denominations were represented and discussed the various phases of religion from their way of thinking with fervency, and, of course, brilliance. These conferences may never result in one common religion, but they will result in one religionist showing much more respect for the other, as well as prompting one nationality to show a greater consideration and respect for the feelings and religion of the other. CATHOLICS LOST HEAVILY. The change of government in the island of Cuba has deprived the Roman Catholic Church of that island of an annual revenue of $300,000, which amount was drawn from the treasury. This has caused so much financial consternation in church circles of the island that the bishop is offering the church lands and property at sixty-five cents on the dollar and still finds it impossible to dispose of the property even at that reduction. The overthrow of the Spanish government in Cuba. Puerto Rico and the Philippine islands was a hard blow to the Roman Catholic Church, not only in those islands, but to the Roman Catholic Church in general, for with American conquest, Protestant religion follows in its wake. While the constitution of the United States has no religious clause in it, nevertheless Protestant religion follows the constitution like unto the flag of van country. The one is quite inseparable from the other. MANY LAY PREACHERS. Lay preachers are still a feature of English Methodism and according UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 AN to reports there are at present 19,950 hay preachers against 2,152 active ministers in the Wesleyan Church of England, and these preachers are supported for the most part, owing to their old age, by a mutual aid association, which was founded some fifty years ago and is a feature of all forms of Methodism. The custom of paying tithes in the Mormon Church is still religiously lived up to by persons who believe in Mormonism, and if a stranger, whether he be a mechanic, artisan or common laborer, works for the temple or for one of the Mormon bishops, ten per cent. of his wages is deducted every week for the church. If the workman, however, kicks on the proposition the balance is paid to him, but one is not supposed to work for the Mormon Church in any shape, form or manner without surrendering one tenth of his wages to the church. This is their custom and they expect it to work with one man the same as another, if the man is working for the church. Parochial schools have been common to the Catholic Church and also the Episcopal Church for many centuries, but the latest move in that direction is the establishment of a parochial school in connection with the Seventh Day Adventists' church. They claim to have 2,000 churches and they propose to find teachers among the worshipers of each of those churches and to organize schools for the children of the members of the various churches, and have those teachers put in charge of them. While parochial schools to some extent are common to all of the Protestant churches, yet they have never become a part of their religion like they have a part of the Catholic and Episcopal churches. Whether right or wrong, the idea is becoming firmly fixed in the minds of persons of such religious faiths, and it is not decreased to any great extent, fight as hard as the various Protestant churches of this country will or may. Mr. F. F. Keeebi, Tacoma's well known barber and bath house man, was visiting the city last Sunday, and it is said on the quiet that Fritz has found attraction in the Queen City that prompts his weekly visits. Rev. M. Scott will preach his farewell sermon Sunday, August 10, and will leave for the annual conference the following Thursday. His farewell sermon does by no means indicate that he will not return to this place after the conference adjourns, but it is the custom of Methodist preachers to always preach their farewell sermon prior to going to the annual conference, that in ease something happens that they will not get back they will have finished up their work properly. Rev. Scott is well liked at this point and will doubtless be returned to the work by the bishop. It is said that the angora goat is fast supplanting the cattle and sheep sulture of the West. The first angora goat was brought to this country in 1849 by Dr. James B. Davis of South Carolina. They were not a success in the South, but proved a splendid investment in the West, and there are now over a million goat in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, California, Idaho, Utah and Oregon. The stockmen are realizing that the day is not far distant when the angora goat will take the place of both cattle and sheep. A new anarchist party has been organized in Rome, Italy, and in the manifesto issued by it, the following are the essential points: The suppression of the causes of all social inequality; absolute liberty is essential to all men, with the respects for life which should be sacred and inviolable. Condemns violence and all attempts on the lives of sovereigns and other persons. A French count, who recently died at the age of eighty-five, left $800,000 to his native city, Rouen. Twenty thousand of this is to be given each year to the biggest and best built couple when married, of that city, ten thousand each to the husband and wife. This is done with a view of improving the French race. Mr. McLaurin will be a Republican and he will lead the liberal forces against Tillmanism, and the next Republican presidential candidate will stand a splendid show of getting the electoral vote from that state, though the local conditions may not improve over what they are at the present time for the next two decades or more. ```markdown ``` MORMON TITHES CHURCH EDUCATION --- AN PRICE FIVE CENTS ITEMS OF INTEREST Brief Statistical Wayside Notes of the World.

According to some scientists the bread eaters of the world in 1871 numbered 371,000,000; in 1881 the number rose to 416,000,000; in 1891 478,600,000; at the present time they number 516,500,000. According to a medical and surgical reporter there has been a marked decrease of mortality in recent years, which is largely due to the better knowledge of medical jurisprudence among the soldiers. The editor of a medical paper has just discovered that a half an hour's map in the afternoon after a meal has been partaken of is helpful, a fact most any old body has known for many years. An American's expectation of life is good at any period. The Englishman's is not quite so good by just a shade; the German's is less by a year, and the Frenchman's is a little better than the German's.

Though Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were for many years close personal and political friends, yet the later years of their life they were such bitter enemies that Adams left the capitol rather than see Thomas Jefferson inaugurated president of the United States. Empress Josephine first popularized what is now known as the handkerchief, owing to the fact that she had irregular, black teeth, she held a lace handkerchief before her mouth whenever she laughed, and the custom was thereby established. The Sprague family has had charge of the American consulate at Gibraltar for sixty-nine years, but the Fox family, Englishmen, has held the little consulate at Falmouth since the time of George Washington and has received $300 per annum for the same.

Mr. Whittelsey's honesty is not questioned, but that does not replace that $27,000 shortage, and that is what the taxpayers have their eye on.

Next Tuesday that part of the Indian Territory about Fort Sill will be the busiest spot in all the Western world, when 150,000 persons will make a grab for 13,000 choice morsels of public land. Your attention is especially called to the business end of The Seattle Republican of this issue. The usual summer lull in business circles has no terror for a live up-to-date peep, just what The Seattle Republican is from start to finish. As between Bryan and Hill Governor Rogers has chosen Hill for his standard bearer in 1904. Regardless of which one he chooses, it is an empty honor for Hill will come no nearer winning than did Bryan, who has twice before attempted it. "Christianity" must not be left out of the constitution of Virginia, say the voters of that state. And if it is, then no further disfranchising and lynching niggers go. Now, if this is not Christianity with a vengeance then we have no knowledge of the term. An Alaska paper for some reason, perhaps even unknown to itself, felt called upon to roast the rivers and harbors committee, and that, too, without knowing whether the committee would recommend more or less ice and snow for the land of the midnight sun. We cannot see as there is any great amount of difference between Cecil Rhodes being a "physical wreck" and in his being a member of King Edward's privy council. To be either must be an awful annoyance to a strong minded man. If all the illiterate men of this country were disfranchised on that account the number of voters at the next election would be considerably smaller, than at the last, and this would be true of the North as well as the South. It serves one well to be a Handy man and especially if he has been convicted of crime and sentenced to a term in the state prison, for with such dexterity he manages to give the penitentiary the horse laugh, the judge and jury to the contrary notwithstanding.

It is a pleasing proposition, we must admit, but we rather suspect that both England and the Transvaal are of the opin-that Wilhelm has a joker up his sleeve and that he would use it if he got an opportunity. As we go to press, Colonel Blethen has neither hung the Considines nor settled the great steel strike, and, by George, that's remarkable. Judge Elom Scott's arrest for rape is either the scandal of the age or the most damnable piece of blackmailing that was ever attempted in the Northwest.

Democrats all over this country seem unduly exercised over Schley's not getting a square deal. If current reports be true, Mr. Schley is equally exercised lest he does get a square deal, for, if he does, he has every reason to believe that he will no longer be connected with the United States navy. Using the heat theory to induce Eastern people to come to the Northwest is as subtle as it is silly. Everybody in the East cannot come here because the weather here is cooler in summer and warmer in winter than it is there, and it is more than likely that a majority of the people in the East are well satisfied with their location, notwithstanding either the excessive heat or cold. That Yakima woman may have been perfectly justifiable in shooting the man wanting to bodily injure her husband and likewise herself, but it seems to us that a twenty-five year old woman, "young and beautiful," ought to have been able to have gotten out of the way of a seventy year old man, "old and decrepid," but public sentiment is always with the woman, especially if she is "young and beautiful." If the North is not ripe for reducing the congressional representation from the South, then it should be. Why is it not fair for the South to have representation in congress in proportion to the number of votes that it casts? The North is religiously held down to that point, and it is a duty that the North owes to itself for its own preservation that such is done at the next sitting of congress.

BETWEEN The Times briefly announced in an editorial last Monday that George U. Piper, erstwhile manager of the Post-Intelligencer, and likewise manager of the political fortunes of Levi Ankeny, contemplated starting a paper in Seattle by October 1st. It will be remembered that Mr. Piper contemplated just such a thing as this when he lost the Post-Intelligencer, but it never resulted in anything except a mere contemplation. This subsequent contemplation on the part of Mr. Piper seems to have been prompted by the announcement that Leigh Hunt would not start his Washingtonian as he had contemplated, and Mr. Piper believing that Seattle was ripe for some kind of a new paper to compete with the Post-Intelligencer, has set up a second journalistic contemplation, if the Times can be believed, which will be as much of a journalistic nightmare and piper drem as his first contemplation. Piper is said to have made money in Texas dealing in oil stock, but to start a paper in Seattle in competition with the Post-Intelligencer would mean that Mr. Piper would have to have at his command in the neighborhood of a million dollars, half of that amount at least, all of which would be completely squandered before his paper would amount to a tinker's dam. Contemplated newspapers are not actual newspapers, and in some instances even newspapers that are being daily issued are so insignificant in the minds of the general public that they do no more good than if they had never been issued, and this would be the natural result of such a paper as Geo. Piper now contemplates issuing October 1st next. It will be remembered that Madam Rumor had it that Piper was no longer in the good graces of the Walla Walla banker, who desires to go to the United States senate, and that for the future campaigns he intended selecting a new manager. If this be true, and there seems to be no doubt of it, this new paper contemplated by Mr. Piper would have no special mission to perform nor no special field to fill. It would neither represent what is commonly known as the Ankeny nor the Wilson faction, though it might represent the Turner faction, and it is being hinted on this point that Turner contemplates returning to the Republican party and bringing with him as many Pops and Democrats as he possibly can. If this be true, Mr. Piper will probably represent his political interests in this contemplated daily paper. Speaking of the continued candidacy of Levi Ankeny, it is benig currently reported on the streets at present that Mr. Ankeny has selected a new manager for King county and it is none other than ex-Sheriff A. T. Vandevanter, and as his assistant, it is also reported, ex-Senator John Wooding has been selected. While Mr. Vandevanter took no active part in Mr. Ankeny's behalf in the last senatorial campaign, yet there is no doubt but that he was a silent if not active supporter of Mr. Ankeny, and did make some overtures in his behalf, so goes the story by offering one of the members of the legislature a $10,00 jackpot if he would support Mr. Ankeny instead of John L. Wilson. It is believed that the man to whom this offer was made would be able to swing two other members of the legislature and thereby assure Mr. Ankeny's election, but the offer was turned down cold bloodedly, and some very unpleasant words passed between the member and Vandevanter. This is all political gossip and the facts cannot be vouched for by the Piemaker, but there seems to be more truth than poetry in it. With these rumors alloat they have the tendency of substantiating the more recent rumor that Mr. Vandevanter will act as Mr. Ankeny's manager in the coming campaign and that Mr. Wooding will assist him. The readers of the Political Pie Pot will remember that it related early in the present year of a political gathering at Walla Walla in which Mr. Vandevanter, Mr. Wooding and Mr. Ankeny all participated, and that meeting, strange to say, was in the home of Mr. Ankeny. That such meeting had political significance goes without saying and it certainly verifies to some extent the theory that Mr. Vandevanter is going to be an active Ankeny man next year. Notwithstanding the fact that the leadig politicians of King county do not seem able to get together on any senatorial candidate, however many aspirants there may be in King county, nevertheless a great majority of the voters of King county are quite anxious that the next United States senator hail from King county. There are persons outside of King county who, perhaps, would represent King county's interests just as ardently and fairly as a King county man himself would, but that does not fill the bill, and a really live King county man is wanted, and while the King county citizens may not be able to find just the man they are looking for, nevertheless such a man is in demand and if he knows that he can fill the bill, it is here suggested that he at once present his credentials to the Re An interesting story from a political standpoint is being told about the streets this week, which is to the effect that it is really a fact that political differences have sprung up between ex-Senator Wilson and Charley Hopkins, whom Senator Foster some time ago decided to name as United States marshal. Mr. Hopkins should have been named July 1st, but he was not, and Mr. Ide is still holding on to the place and believes that he will continue to hold it, and thereby hangs a tale. Just what caused the political split between Hopkins and Wilson, the public has not been informed as yet, and perhaps never will be, but if it be true then it begins to appear to those who have watched the trend of politics in this state, that Wilson it still a factor in national politics and has been able to hold up Mr. Hopkins' appointment despite Senator Foster's determination to appoint him. Senator Foster declared prior to July 1st that the appointment would be made July 1st, but it was not made. Rumor has it that a political break occurred between Wilson, Hopkins and Foster prior to that time and that Hopkins decided to cast his political lot with Foster. Then rumor further has it that Mr. Wilson at once left for Washington city, and, strange to say, July 1st came and went and no appointment was made. It is now August 1st, and still nothing has been heard of the matter. This would seem to indicate that Mr. Wilson has been able to call Senator Foster's hand and prevent the appointment of Mr. Hopkins, though the latter was formerly Wilson's senatorial manager. In the meanwhile Mr. Ide has been simply sawing wood and saying nothing, satisfied that Wilson would be able to save him, and there are others who believe the same way. The Whittelsey defalcation of $27,000 is the political gossip of the town at present, and while everybody believes that there is a shortage in Mr. Whittelsey's accounts, nobody believes that he is accountable for the shortage, but as chief officer he is absolutely responsible for everything that was done by any of his deputies, and now that the shortage is an actual fact, it is due the voters of this county that legal steps be taken to punish those responsible for it. That Mr. Whittelsey is absolutely honest and free from even the taint of suspicion in making away with this amount of money goes without saying, but this does not satisfy the law, and some legal steps should be taken at once by the prosecuting attorney to bring the matter squarely before the courts and locate the guilty parties. The Times has been painfully silent on this matter, simply because it did not get the first publishing of the bit of scandal—don't you know, but that does not justify it for keeping still to shield a man of its party, who is found short, in recovering the county's funds, and despite his political prominence, his social standing, and estimableness as a citizen, he should be arraigned in court and called upon to explain the workings of his office that the one responsible for this shortage may be publicly exposed. Much grumbling is being heard on the streets these days among Republican politicians on account of some of the county officials retaining Populists and Democrats in office for months after a change has been made, and the complaint, in the opinion of the Piemaker, is not without just foundation, for it will be remembered that when the Populists captured the county in 1896 and took office in 1897, that within a month after the change had been made there were not over three Republicans that held positions under Republican officials to be found in the King county court house, and the Piemaker hardly thinks it fair that the Republicans continue Populists in office when there are plenty of good Republicans to take their places, and unless the practice is brought to a sudden halt an open revolution is going to break out among the Republicans, and those officials who have their eye on a second term will find that they have injured instead of strengthened their prospects of being nominated. A hint to the wise should be sufficient and this gentle hint from The Republican should be heeded by those county officials that are doing as herein mentioned. Candidates for county offices next year have already begun to bud and here and there politicians are being buttonholed in the interests of some candidate who hopes to get in on the ground floor for a nomination at the hands of the next Republican county convention. Activity among the Democrats for the mayoralty contest is already showing itself and from what has THE SEATTLE: REPUBLICAN Shave at Frank's shop. Summer sun sure shines. Mr. C. A. Lucas of Portland is a visitor to the city this week. Tell your merchant you saw his ad in The Republican. Jack Irving, the well known tailor, is expected home from New York early in next week. Rev. Randall and Mr. J. W. Efaw are rusticating in the mountains of California at present. The musical concerts given by the Bon Marche catches the Saturday evening shoppers. Hon. J. P. Ball, Sr., is making preparations to visit the Arkansas Hot Springs. Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Palmer looked over their oyster beds last Sunday. Mr. Dan Meyer, the Sunnydale rancher, reports business in his line quite flourishing. Does the store you trade at advertise in this paper? No; then trade in the store that does. The merchant that will advertise with your paper will make more overtures to you if you will push him. Mrs. Washington and Mr. Goldborough have opened up a restaurant at 70 Yesler way on a very elaborate scale. Mr. J. D. Jones, who was forced to move his wood yard from Second and University, has located it on Eighth and Madison. Chauncey Olcott will appear at the Grand Opera House on the evenings of August 16 and 17, in his new play, "Garret O'Magh." Mr. Black, the young Washington, D.C., attorney, who has pitched his tent in Seattle, is doing a very nice business and will permanently locate here. Mrs. Annie E. Branch and daughter Gloria of Kansas City arrived in the city last Sunday evening on the Pueblo from California, and will visit with friends and acquaintances here for two weeks or more. Mr. J. F. Cragwell left for a three months' visit in the East last Thursday. New York, Washington city, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Buffalo and Chicago have all been mapped out by him to visit while absent. Dr. R. M. Eames, a well known Fifth ward physician and politician, has gone East to be absent from the city some four weeks or more. On his return he will have a startling announcement to make to the general public. A good word to the merchant with whom you trade in behalf of The Seattle Republican would bring good advertising results to its columns. suche words would do you no harm and do the paper a whole lot of good. Why not lend that much aid to it? Mrs. Frank Alfred of Bremerton visited the city last Wednesday with a view of inviting a number of her friends over to visit her at the naval yard for a couple of days and at the same time see the three naval vessels that are now at that place. Mr. Geo. L. Johnson and Mr. Al Poenix are mainkg strong efforts to perfect plans for the annual Newcastle picnic the 1st of August, and if they are successful they intend holding the picnic at Renton instead of Newcastle this year. Mr. Richard Bushell, a well known newspaper man of Everett, was visiting the city last Tuesday and took in the sights. It has been almost a year since Dick lived in the city, and he almost got lost between the depot and where his girl lives. Rev. N. D. Harttsfield passed through the city last Monday on his return trip from Roslyn. Mr. Harttsfield says that there are not more than ten colored men working in the mines at New Castle and about the same number at Franklin. The number of miners at Roslyn is no less now than months ago, he claims, notwithstanding the fact that quite a number went to New Mexico some time ago. ROSLYN Services as usual at the Second Baptist Church next Sunday. Send us any news you have worthy of publication. Miss Eliza Day of Portland, Ore. is visiting her aunt, Mrs. R. M. Gibson. If you want The Republican to come to your address make the fact known to this office by postal card. The biggest and fastest man about town these days is Mr. J. E. Sheperson. He digs coal no more, and he shows it. The Republican is your friend, whether you are its friend or enemy and you should read it every week to learn what it has to say. Rev. N. D. Hartsfield will preach at the A. N. M. E. Church next Sunday with a view of winding up his work preparatory to going to conference. Mr. and Mrs. Julius Johnson have taken up their residence on their ranch and will go into general truck farming, selling whatever they can raise on the farm to the miners of Roslyn and Cle Elum. The ladies of the Second Baptist Church, under the chairmanship of Mrs. William Bagley, gave a festival last Monday night, which was largely attended and the tables were well patronized. Mrs. Bagley always proves a brilliant success at this kind of an entertainment and on this occasion she did not fall below her usual standard. The once "fashionable fervi- iere," a precious jewel, is again to be worn on the forehead in Paris. The jewel will be held in place by either a velvet band or a fillet of gold.
