The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VIII., NO. 11 Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. THE WEEKLY REVIEW Judge McCarthy Says Men Swear Falsely Before the Courts--Spoils System Practiced in This County Becoming Alarming--American's Bicycle Girl, a Most Remarkable Creature--A Weather Comparison —New Maine Launched —Uncle Sam's Great Corn Crop. PERJURY IS COMMON. It is a sad commentary on our later day civilization when a judge, after years of experience on the bench, openly admits that perjury is common in the courts of our country, and not only common but an everyday occurrence. Mr. J. J. McCarthy, an Illinois jurist, who has served for years on the bench of that state, declared befare the bar association of that state not long since that, in his opinion, seventy-five percent of the testimony given in criminal cases on behalf of the defense was perjured testimony, and that the per cent. was even greater in divorce cases. It would thus seem that the oath to tell the truth taken by persons who go on the witness stand has no moral significance whatever, and is no restraint as to what they tell; in short, the witness goes to court to swear to a lie, and no influence, however grave or gruesome can prevent him or her from so doing, which, to say the least, is a sad, sad commentary. OUR SPOILS SYSTEM. The "spoil system" of this country seems to be the rock on which it will eventually be wrecked. It prevails in the house of congress, in financial circles throughout the entire government, and, in short, wherever one man has influence and power to turn things a certain way to meet the approval of others, the "spoil system" prevails almost to an alarming extent. The congressman do little things for this or that man, the doing of which is not altogether criminal, but it does give one certain man the advantage over his fellow-men, and for this favor the congressman is paid a liberal sum, and so all down the line, however insignificant the office may be it is subject to tips, and this has given rise to the belief on the part of men with money that all that is necessary to have any kind of a law passed in the interest of their special business is to offer those having the right to pass laws a sufficient sum of money and it will be done. Whether this bue true or not, the writer is not prepared to say, but the idea is prevalent, and wherever there is so much smoke there is bound to be some fire. It is frequently charged that members of a city council will grant any kind of an unreasonable franchise to a corporation, if there is only a sufficient amount of money in it for the councilmen who are to vote for the measure. It must be an exaggeration to declare that highly cultured, civilized gentlemen will sell themselves and their influence for vicious purposes or for a few paltry dollars, for they must realize in doing so that they are committing crimes which their children's children will suffer from, and it is virtually the same as offering to sell them into slavery, and certainly no well-informed, patriotic citizen, such as this country boasts of, would do any thing so barbarous as that. THE BICYCLE GIRL. The nineteenth century produced one thing that will go down in history as one of the most remarkable production of the century, and it is none other than what is commonly known as "the bicycle girl." She is a creature peculiar to the circumstances which produced her, and though she seems to have been created for the express purpose of riding the bicycle, she has taken advantage of her metamorphosed condition and has utilized it not only for her own comfort and pleasure, but for the benefit of mankind in general. The bicycle girl brought about the common sense girl, the everyday up-to-date girl, the general utility girl. The girl who can ride the bicycle with grace and endurance can and will do most anything that comes to hand, even to in many instances, making a living for her worthless husband. The girl who rides her bicycle to the office in the morning will attend to her employer's business just as readily as she rides, and will attend to his business with as much dispatch and ability, for the most part, as her employer. She knows his business from start to finish and has every detail at her fingers' end. She answers with readiness any question asked her concerning the business in which she is employed, and, in short, she is the machine of the whole concern. And this was all brought about on account of her adapting herself to a bicycle and overcoming emergencies, which the woman of a quarter of a century ago would have gone down before like chaff. It is more than possible that the men of this age are willing with one accord to sing praises to Him who gave the world the bicycle girl. WEATHER COMPARISON. An Illinois paper has been comparing the present summer season of that state with the summer of 1816 and finds a most remarkable difference between the two. In 1816, so says the writer, in the month of April the snow in that state was six feet deep and frozen for half of its depth. In May only the crust had melted away and the ground was nowhere to be seen; no planting whatever was done anywhere during that month. In June the snow had all melted, but the ground was still frozen hard. In the latter part of June there was quite a snowfall in the state, which made sleighing quite good for several days. On July 4 water froze in the wells and the pitchers of the early settlers, and there was excellent skating in the neighboring ponds. Snow fell towards noon, and the usual Ind churches warmed by blazing fires. The spring, when it did come, was so short and severe that no vegetation could thrive. The corn that was planted went to tassel in August and was only fit for fodder. Such a season certainly presents a most marked contrast when compared with the present season, which has been the hottest that Illinois or any part of the East has witnessed for many years, as more persons have suffered and died from sunstroke than has been before reported in the United States for a century, if at all. NEW MAINE LAUNCHED: It is rather remarkable that at the launching of the new Maine not one of the survivors, nor the widows or children of those that perished on the old Maine were present. This has called for quite an amount of caustic criticism from public men and newspapers to the effect that our republic is ungrateful to the memory of those who fight its battles and perish in the struggle. If the government officials themselves were responsible for this oversight there would be room for complaint, but the launching of even a government man-of-war is by no means a public affair, but, on the other hand, a private one, and the government officials are invited guests the same as other persons. Until such vessels are turned over to the government they belong to the contractors, and by no means to the government, and the launching of such vessel is their own private affair, and it is their privilege to invite or not invite whoever they choose. In view of the fact that the new Maine is to take the place of the ill-fated Maine that was blown up in the Havana harbor, it seems nothing more than right and proper to have had the survivors of the old Maine present, but the contractors did not see fit to invite them, hence they had to be absent, and their absence is no grounds for the public to censure the government. COUNTRY'S CORN CROP Careful estimates have been made concerning the shortage of the corn crop this year on account of the continued drought, and the shortage is placed at 300,000,000 bushels below last year' crop. These figures' perhaps are inflated ones, but there is no doubt of the fact that the corn crop of this country for this year will be many bushels less than that of last year. The corn crop in the main comes from the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska, and last year's' crop was as follows: Illinois, 264, 176,226; Indiana, 153,200,800; Iowa, 305,895,848; Kansas, 163,870,630; Missouri, 180,710,404; Nebraska, 210,430,604. It will be of interest in this connection to know the annual increase of the corn crop of the United States for several years past. In 1850 the total yield was 592,071,104 bushels; ten years later it was 838,792,742 bushels; since 1895 the corn crop of this country 'has been as follows: 1895, 2,151,139,000; 1896, 2,283,875,000 bushels; 1897, 1,902,697,933 bushels; 1898, 1,924,185,000; 1899, 2,078,143,933; 1900, 2,105,102,516 bushels.

Why not lend that much aid to it? SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1901 BROTHER IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Observing Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Maryland Democrats Still Fear the Negro-Democracy the Champion (1) of Human Rights-McLearnian Republicanism to Supplant Negro Republicanism-Hoodium Tillman Again-Makes Another Ridiculous Tirade Against the Black Man, Showing His Ignorance. NEGRO IN MARYLAND. Notwithstanding the fact that the disfranchisement act, which is aimed directly at the colored folk of the state of Maryland, has been passed and is in full force and effect, still there is mistrust among the Democrats of that state, lest the Negro not only continue to be a factor in politics, but will actually hold the balance of power and thereby rule the state indirectly. Laboring under this belief, the Democratic party in Maryland, in both county and state conventions, have resolved and resolved against the Negro as a voter, regardless of his education and his qualification for enfranchisement, and a strong effort will be made by them to enact some kind of a law during the coming session of the legislature of that state that will completely disfranchise every man with a black face. Just why those Caucasian citizens of Maryland, the state that has a history running back to the very foundation of the government, which history teems with the culture and refinement that Maryland's white citizens possess, should have such a holy horror of illiterate colored voters, is the question that only they themselves can explain. The colored voters are not in the majority in either the Democratic or the Republican party. There are more white Republicans in Maryland than colored Republicans, and almost two to one Democratic white voters to the colored voters, irrespective of the party with which they affiliate, and yet fear exists in the minds of the Democratic voters lest a few colored voters rule the politics of the state. This is certainly giving the colored man credit for being able to do more than even his warmest and best friends ever thought he could do. DEMOCRATIC DEFENDERS It is laughable in the extreme to read in a Southern paper, noted for its antagonism to the colored race, that the Democratic party is the defender of human rights, and among those human rights which the Democratic party has especially defended is the Negro's. This Southern journalist calls upon all Democratic conventions to adopt resolutions demanding the protection of the colored man in the North; that is to say, that the Northern states and capitalists give the Negro work whenever he is taken up in car load lots from the South and carried North nolens volens to take the place of white strikers. Of all the rot that has ever been advocated by a Southern journal this seems to be the rottenest that has ever come under the observation of the general public. Because the Northern states have befriended the Negro in many ways and on former occasions, it does not necessarily follow that they must go South and gather up a few car loads of colored men and take them to their homes in order that such colored men can take the place of their sons and daughters, who have quit work on account of some grievance that has arisen between themselves and their employers. The Republican believes that every man should have a fair and equal show to work in any state and any community in the United States, but for the Democratic party to set out on any such mission sounds more like the acts of damphos rather than that of sane men, and the Democrats themselves would do about as much of such as a new-born black baby could stick in the corner of its left eve. McLAURIN VS. TILLMAN The South Carolina political warfare is being watched from every hill top both in the North and the South by the two great parties of the country. In order that Senator McLaurin can the more successfully fight Senator Tillman, President McKinley has placed the entire state patronage at the disposal of Senator McLaurin, who is to build up a new Republican party in that state. South Carolina has already disfranchised seventy-five per cent. of her colored voters, and the other twenty-five per cent. is to be used to aid Senator McLaurin in his fight, and for their support to the senator they are to receive certain federal patronage, but the majority of the patronage is to go to the men who have been leading figures heretofore in the Democratic party, and by this arrangement the colored men who have been the head and shoulders of the Republican party in that state for so long are to play second fiddle. If the Negro is to be disfranchised in the Southern states there seems to be no good and sufficient reason why the Republican party should not build up a party in those states among the disgruntled Democratic voters. This, it must be admitted, would split whatever colored men that are permitted to vote in those states, but since nothing from nothing leaves nothing, it should not matter very much to them which party is in power, and, as has been frequently said in these columns, when there are two parties in the state the colored man stands a good deal better show of getting his rights than when there is but one party in the state. It therefore seems to be the proper thing that President McKinley encourage the idea of building up a Republican party in the South by allowing those Democrats who are wiling to break away from the old party to distribute the patronage among the lesser lights who will follow them into the new party. SOUTHERN HOODLUMS. It is quite remarkable that persons in the North will turn out in a mass to listen to such hoodlums as Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, when they reasonably know that he will talk on nothing save hoodlumism, vileness and law-breaking. Tillman's outbreak in Wisconsin last Sunday, which was reported in Monday morning's paper, was too disgraceful and nauseating to be read by any respectable American citizen. It seems almost a sacrilege to American patriotism to publish such talk in the newspapers, yea, to even send such over the telegraph wire. This South Carolina hoodlum has boasted from time to time of how the South shot, lynched, burned and otherwise murdered the Negroes of that section, and for no other reason than because they tried to cast an honest ballot, which privilege and prerogative had been given them by the constitution of the United States. Not only in their boast of being instrumental in intimidating the Negroes in their effort to vote, but he spoke most shamefully of Booker Washington's effort to educate the Negro race along industrial lines, which would make him a useful citizen to his country, and also make his labors a hundred-fold more valuable than at present. Tillman has never got over the idea of wanting a black slave at his beck and call, and he still lamentes that he hasn't owe, and for this loss he purposes to murder them by the wholesale and drive them into a form of slavery, even worse than that they had to undergo before the great civil war. If Tillman has ever said one thing that would make a patriotic citizen applaud the writer hereof has never read one syllable of such a statement as yet. That the man is a revolutionist, a border outlaw and a red-handed criminal no sane man will deny, and it seems almost remarkable, as said above, that decent men in the North would sit and listen at the hoodlum talks that he has given on various occasions in many communities in the Northern states. Let the Negro rejoice that such an ignoramus as this braying as from South Carolina, more commonly known as Ben R. Tillman, is against their progress, for in his opposition they will find strength. For every speech that Tillman makes like unto the one that was reported last Monday morning the Negro gains in strength and friends a hundred-fold and a million dollars, for men will contribute of their earthly possessions to aid a race oppressed as is and has been the Negro race by such outlaws as Tillman and his likes. CHAUNCEY OLCOTT. The distinguished exponent of the Irish comedy, Chauncey Olcott, has met with distinct favor at the Columbia theater, in San Francisco, where his fine production of "Garrett O'Magh" has been viewed by some very large audiences. Olcott is without doubt the sweetest singer on the stage, and this coupled with his delightful stage presence and clever acting make him a most acceptable stage figure. The star has made a great hit with his interpolation of "My Wild Irish Rose." Chauncey Olcott will appear at the Grand on August 16 and 17. REALM OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Quasi Christians. PECULIAR CUSTOMS New Religious Play to Be Staged- Denominational Journals Are Losing Out—"Chenper Car" System Becoming Popular-African's Misi- sionary Launches—The Epworth Leagues Very Strong—Turkey Wants No Christian Help-Chinese Mission to Be Rebuilt. NEW RELIGIOUS PLAY. A new religious drama is soon to be placed upon the theatrical stage, and it is already predicted by those who have read the poem from which the play is taken that it will have a phenomenal success. "Herod" is the name of the drama and likewise the name of the poem, and it was written by Stephen Phillip, a London literary genius. The dramatization of Lew Wallace's "Ben Hur" was the first religious work that was ever put on the stage that reached any degree of success, but this was followed by others and others, and they have been more or less of a success on the stage, and now "Herod" is promised to be the greatest of its kind that has ever appeared before the footlights. DENOMINATIONAL JOURNALS. Religious journals are no longer in great demand, for the simple reason that they do not circulate outside of the tatha for which they are mouthpieces. It is exceedingly hard to make a denominational journal, however able the articles it contains may be, of any interest to the reading public. Hence the circulation of such a journal must be limited, and, owing to its imputed sphere, the business end of the proposition suffers severely. It is nere predicted that the day is not far distant when some master mind will come to the front and deal with religion from a journalistic standpoint rather than a denominational, we in demand by all denominations, and even who are not inclined to be of any denomination, and the success of such journal will mean the starting of lesser ones, all of which will completely supplant all denominational periodicals. One may be devoted to the denomination to which he or she belongs, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they feel like subscribing to a denominational paper which for the most part is limited in its general news and information. NEW CHAPEL CAR. A new chapel car is the latest move among religionists to reach communities and towns where no church has been erected, nor no place in which Sunday services can be held. The idea was conceived by Rev. Wayland Hoyt after he had heard the experience of a Western preacher who tried to hold services in a Western mining town, but could find no place in which to do so. The railroad company had built into the town and their passenger coach stopped on the track all day Sunday, he applied to the railroad company for the devotional use of the coach and was permitted to hold Sunday services therein, which resulted in the erection of a large church in that community. Now this idea was crystallized by Mr. Hoyt, and the chapel car system was organized soon after, and these go to many of the outlying towns on the plains and hold regular Sunday services and return to the headquarters the next day. So successful have they been that it is now contemplated increasing the present number and using them in many of the Southern as well as the Western states. MISSIONARY LAUNCHES In Africa the mission workers have adopted a rather novel plan of reaching the natives by using steam launches that will navigate the various streams, and these launches take the missionaries to the different localities every Sunday, where services are held by them among the natives. The first launch that was ever sent up the Congo to do mission work was the "Peace," and so successful it was that others have since been built and are in the same kind pendence day exercises were held in of missionary work, and much good is being accomplished through them. Africa, unlike the United States, has no railroads running in all directions through the country, hence it is impossible to establish chapel car service, and the steam launch mission car service has been adopted in lieu thereof, and the success that is attending them is as gratifying as that attending the chapel car service in this country. EPWORTH LEAGUE, TOO Last week a short notice concerning the Christian Endeavor appeared in these columns, which showed the marvelous growth that it had attained since it was first organized. The adjournment of the Epworth League in San Francisco reminds the writer that here is a similar organization to that of the Christian Endeavor, that has enjoyed as remarkable growth as the Christian Endeavor, and though it has made no efforts to get members outside of the Methodist organizations, yet it is perhaps today the strongest auxiliary church organization in the world, and the workers in the Methodist church declare that it has been the means of bringing more young folk to the church than any plan that has been adopted by the Methodist fraternity. The organization is supposed to consist of between ten and fifteen million members, and is growing at an exceedingly rapid rate at the present time. FOREIGNERS FORBIDDEN. Owing to the fact that a number of Turkish girls have been educated in American schools under Protestant religious influence, the Turkish government has issued an edict prohibiting Turkish children from attending foreign schools, likewise the employment of Christian teachers in Turkish households, or the appearance of Turkish women in public accompanied by Christian women. This will prevent missionary work being carried on in Turkey, and will deprive hundreds of foreign women from lucrative positions as governesses in Turkish families. To employ Christian governesses, especially if she was from some influential government, such as the United States or England, had become quite common among the Turkish people, and the movement had succeeded in Christianizing so many families that the Turkish government took hold of it with a strong determination and will to suppress it, and have pretty nearly done so. MISSIONS IN CHINA An effort will be made at an early day to rebuild the missions of China. Recently the Protestants of this country met in New York, and with Dr. Brown, the head of the missionary board, discussed ways and means for the re-establishing of the mission in China, which was destroyed during the late Boxer riots in that country. If the plans that were talked over are carried out, the mission will be established on a much more elaborate plan than before its destruction. It is the intention of the board to spend many thousand taels among the Chinese for educational purposes, and thereby reach the younger folk through the schoolroom as well as through the church room. PROTESTANTS NOT UNITED Protestantism versus Catholicism has prompted Dr. Lloyd Church, of Chicago, who is a most ardent Protestant, and who wishes to see Protestantism of all kinds, classes and descriptions united under one common banner, to announce the fact that Protestantism is divided up into so many different kinds ofisms that it is hard for one to tell which ism he really belongs to. "What has Protestantism done?" and to this he replies, it has analyzed and reanalyzed; that is to say, it has divided up and has subdivided up, until today we have seventeen kinds of Methodists, thirteen kinds of Baptists, twelve kinds of Presbyterians and some 350 different denominations all told in the United States, and he concludes that this is ridiculous, for every label on Protestantism is a libel.

For the last twelve months shipbuilding shows that more tonnage was launched than in any previous year in the history of the shipbuilding industry save two, there being more than 400,000 tons added to the American register. It is learned from an official report that the average pay of the Chinese soldier is two and a half cents per day.

Kernanghan, Ross and McCaul is a brilliant trio that the gambling fraternity of this city can point with pride to as the victims of the famous Tom-Humes wide-open policy.

It is only Kansas droughts that makes Kansas Populist. The Argus of this city is to be congratulated for having found a new topic on which to write. It now alternates the subjects Blethen, Wilson and Cayton and thus breaks much of the monotony of its usual hum-drum of Blethen. As has been already seen, The Republican has added a religious column to its already interesting paper, which we hope to make of such a general character as to prove of much interest to all persons believers in the cause of Christ. Phe P-L, says: "It is a burning shame that the trees on Daniel Webster's old New Hampshire farm are to be turned over to the match company." It may be a burning shame some day, neighbor, but the burning process has not been begun as yet. The quotations from the News Recorder and the Sunday Welcome in another column hereof cannot be read by anyone without being convinced of the fact that the editors of each of them are genuine "niggermen," and that, too, of very low types. It would be quite a joke on Western Washington if old Sol would give her a dose of the same kind of hot stuff that he has given the Eastern states, and from the indications that have cropped out during the past week there is a strong probability of him doing so. Some 1,800 farmers near Chicago have telephones placed in their homes so as to get connection with the city, and it is said to be quite an advantage to them, as it will enable them to know just when to take their produce to market. There is no doubt but that Cervera, the Spanish admiral, was there at the time of the Santiago naval battle, but we surmise that he was so busy that he was not able to form an opinion either for or against Schley or Sampson. Gambling houses of this city are making short work of young men holding trusted positions in business houses. One by one they pluck them them from the paths of honesty and uprightness and send them pell-mell over the brinks of eternal ruin. That gambling houses are necessary evils, as are so frequently advocated by some of the business men, must now be quite apparent to them. If father Clayson is trying to imitate the Patriarch of old in his backhanded advocacy of saloons, then we suggest to him that it is his duty as a father and a husband and as a grandfather to get into better business. It is rather remarkable that the Patriarch in its advertising columns should be supported almost wholly by saloons. The Union Record of this city admits that nine-tenths of the skilled mechanics of the city work but eight hours per day and receive $3.50 for their labor, but yet the Record is advocating a general strike for higher wages. While it seems to be the principle of this world to get all you can, in this case it seems that the mechanics are not only doing that very thing, but striking because they cannot get what there is to not get.

The 20th Century train, "the finest in the world," leaves St. Paul every day in the year at 8.10 p. m. F. W. PARKER, General Agent. 151 Yesler Way. Seattle Wash. Nothing new having been reported concerning the United States marshalship embroglio, owing to the friends of both Ide and Hopkins keeping quiet and saving wood, the Pie-Maker is not prepared to say anything definite at this writing, though a good deal is brewing, and brewing so loudly that occasionally sounds are heard from the brewing pot. This appointment promises to kick up more political racket than all of the others that will be handed out by Senator Foster and the other members of congress from this state. It promises to bring about estrangements between political friends that have heretofore worked hand and glove with each other. If it be true that political differences have already arisen between ex-Senator Wilson and Charley Hopkins, this will run down the line and the friends of the two men will eling to their respective captains, and the outcome will be eagerly watched by politicians all over the state.. The Pie-Maker is prepared to announce this week that State Senator L. B. Andrews, who is now in Buffalo looking after the Washington exhibit, has given it out cold that he has been promised the position of registrar of the land office at Seattle by Senator Foster. Senator Andrews has been previously mentioned in this connection in an indirect way, but he has maintained a painful silence as to the appointment, until he confided in a friend a few days ago that Senator Foster had absolutely promised him the place, and as soon as the present incumbent's time had expired he would be appointed. This will be a surprise to a whole lot of men in and about Seattle, and even out of Seattle, as it was pretty generally conceded that Receiver Trempel would be reappointed on the grounds that he had made a good and efficient officer, and inasmuch as the president himself had sought and received a second term, it was thought those officers under him against whom no charges had been made would be accorded the same privilege, but if what Senator Andrews says be true, then Mr. Trempel is to be turned down, regardless of his record, and a new man put at the wheel because he is friendly to Senator Foster's faction, which faction, it is very currently reported, worked like Trojans for the defeat of the Republican ticket last fall, and as a result J. M. Frank, the Republican candidate for governor, was defeated, when the balance of the ticket was elected by from twelve to fifteen thousand majority. No one will charge Senator Foster as being a party to this, but the politicians he trains with are charged with being a party to it, and water never rises higher than its level. --- The next startling announcement in this connection that the Pie-Maker has to make today is that Joe Dawes, who was a member of the last legislature, and who is tied to the Foster-Humes faction with a bemping cord, has been unqualifiedly promised the position as receiver of the land office in this city, which position is now filled by Columbus T. Tyler. This fact Mr. Dawes, so it is reported, has told a number of friends in the city, and there is no doubt that but he has had some assurance along this line, or he would never have made the assertion. If such be true, it is carrying the political fight that has been prominent in this state for so many months into the very heart of Africa, vulgarly speaking, and his appointment will not heal up the breach that has been made in the Republican party on account of his factional fidelity. The appointment of Dawes would be like flaunting a red rag in a bull's face and would be the opening up of the old battle, which would result in the defeat of Senator Foster in spite of all he could subsequently say or do. The men filling the positions that are mentioned in this connection have done so very acceptably; they have made good officials and no complaint has been registered against them; now, if they are turned out of office because they were appointed by a certain man who was then United States senator, it will do the Republican party no good, and the Pie-Maker is of the opinion that it will rent the party in twain in this city and be the means of defeating it on future occasions as it was defeated last year. Senator Foster is therefore warned to stop and think before he makes this step, lest he steps falsely and plunge into political ruin. The Pie-Maker notes that within the past two weeks or more the citizens of this city have been startled by announcements in the daily papers that first Kernanghan, cashier of the Sunset Telephone Co.; then Ralph Ross, stamp clerk in the Internal Revenue Office, and then McCaul, clerk in the quartermaster's department in this city, have all sucumbed to the Tom-Humes wide-open policy and have run to ruin. In each one of these cases the young men embezzled large sums of their employer's money and squandered the same in the gambling houses and dives that frequent this city. When they had lost every cent that they could get their hands on they either fled or surrendered themselves to the proper authorities to pay the penalty of their folly in the state's prison. Efforts were made to settle up the shortage for the young men and thereby prevent their imprisonment, but this in every instance miscarried, and it is to be regretted that both Kernanghan and McCaul are not now occupying cells by the side of Ralph Ross, and that they will not perhaps be sent to prison at the same time that he is to serve out a sentence as a punishment for their crime. Because some young man has been prominent in social affairs, it should be no shield to him when he has been found guilty of committing a crime, and had the strong arm of the law taken hold of young Kernanghan he would not now be a fugitive from justice, but would be occupying a prison cell. While we naturally have sympathy for young men who do wrong, yet when they do so knowingly and realize the consequences if found out, nothing will prove a more salient lesson to them than a term in the penitentiary. --- All this begging for a speedy hearing for Ross and the employing of Judge Burke as his attorney is buncom and rot. He has no defense; he stole money, admits it and should be sent to prison just as other criminals are. Too much fuss is being made over a man that seems to be hardened in the crime he now stands charged with. 一 When the striking union men attempt to murder their fellow-laborers because they insist on working instead of striking and becoming perpetual loafers as so many of them are doing, which misfortune beefel Frank Weir, a young man working at the Washington Iron Works, one day last week, it is carrying things pretty far, yea, it is carrying things rather high-handed, and that simple act has injured the cause of the strikers more than anything that has happened since the strike was first declared. Young Weir is a mere lad of a boy, not yet eighteen, and returned to work because his father told him to do so, and he could not disobey his father's orders, and for two overgrown, burly brutes to beat him up as they did because he would not quit work is a crime that should be punished by a term in the state's prison instead of a nominal fine. The Republican has no sympathy for the striker who will not work and who will not let anyone else work. Labor unions have the right to strike whenever they desire, but they have no right to prevent another man from taking the place he leaves. 一 The Pie-Maker overheard a number of leading politicians talking one day this week, and he learned from them that they were discussing the candidates for sheriff next year. After they had weighed first one prospective candidate and then another in the political balance, they concluded that Commissioner P. J. Smith, of Issaquah, would make the strongest candidate that the Republican party could put up. Mr. Smith is probably one of the most popular men in the county and would make a strong fight in every part of the county for the nomination, and a still stronger fight for the election. He was strong before he was elected to the position he now holds, and he is much stronger now than he was before. It is therefore reasonable to suppose that if he will allow the use of his name he will make a hard fight for the nomination and a still harder fight for the election. Rumor has it that County Commissioner George N. Gilson desires to retire from that office after next year, and in order that he will be certain of retiring when his term expires he will seek the nomination for mayor of Seattle next spring. If what is reported of Mr. Gilson be true, he will be the candidate of no faction or clique in the Republican party, but will be a Republican candidate from start to finish, and will tie himself to neither the Humes nor the Wilson nor the Ankeny, nor any other United States senatorial kite. It is the duty of the Republicans of Seattle to keep the senatorial fight out of the municipal contest, and, if they do this, they are pretty certain of winning the next fight, providing some wide-open policy man is not nominated that will carry out the policy laid down by Tom Humes. If that is done, then the Republicans themselves will defeat such a nomination, for they are determined that Seattle shall have no more administrations such as has Tom Humes given her. "There are some things in this world too small to notice, and some too rotten and filthy to mention, yet the stench fills the nostrils of the passing throng like the fumes from a decaying carcass, but the cheapest thing on earth, the smallest, most rotten and highly scented, is a man who claims to be white and will take the part of a nigger against one of his own kind.

If niggers, there might be some excuse for them, as they have long since lost all their value except to plug up the holes in a certain political fence, but if they are nigger-lovers they should be ostricized as vermin too loathsome to contemplate. To illustrate their idiocy and to show how cheap they can 'get on' they tried last week to 'take a fall' out of the Astoria News because that paper happened to be making it extremely torrid for a nigger editor somewhere on the Sound. Of course, the nigger stunk—like any nigger would under the circumstances—and, taking this as a signal victory they acted upon the same principal a cur dog does when he embraces just such an opportunity to nip the flesh of a thoroughbred. Away with such trash. They are 10 degrees below a nigger's zero.—Pasco News-Record, C. F. Giezentanner, editor. "And wise men whisper as they pass, There sits that self-conceited, braying ass." The Republican is the only newspaper published in King county, yea, almost the only one in the entire state, that absolutely refuses to carry any kind of saloon advertisement."—Seattle Republican. The Negro editor of the Seattle Republican is the worst kind of a hypocrite. He is a cancer on humanity. What right has he, a man who writes columns and columns in defense of two of the worst men in Seattle, the Considine murderers, to talk about not taking saloon advertisements? It is safe to venture the assertion that nine out of every ten saloonmen in Seattle has more honor in his little finger than this black would-be reformist. If the saloons were not wanted, we would not have them. They are the product of the law, and as legitimate as any other business. The "coon" editor is continually making his boasts that he has refused all kinds of saloon advertisements, although they have offered him high prices. When he says that he knows he lies. No saloon man ever wanted to patrize a newspaper that was continually croaking about the evils of saloons. As far as any good coming from advertising in the Republican, nothing need be said, as every one knows that it would be useless. The Negro editor and his chum, Considine, are good running mates. Both are after the mighty dollar, and the Seattle Republican's talk resembles the editor's head; there's nothing in it.—Portland Sunday Welcome. The above is from a paper which is almost exclusively read by the demi-monde of the Northwest. --- 一 ANUFACTURED S and BOILER MAKERS Iron Works K, President S and Pears THE IN The pro- stock h ture and factories Absolut making safe-gu safe, se anteed.

Quite a large crowd, both white and black, attended the picnic at Newcastle last Saturday. Hon. Z. B. Rawson and family have returned from their camping excursion, whither they have been for the past two weeks. Among those visiting Bremerton last Sunday was Mrs. J. C. Branche and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Cayton and children, and thousands of others. We wish to call especial attention to the mining venture of Spokane's representative colored men in an another column. They are all reliable men and any one dealing with themwill never regret the same. Mr. S. Reed Broadbent has returned from an extended visit to New York, whither he went to complete his course in medicine, and he returns with M. D. attached to his name. As in the past, he will continue to cast his lot in Seattle. Mr. and Mrs. Booker, of Kansas City, Mo., relatives of Mr. Walter Washington, arrived in the city last Monday, with a view of making this their future home, and they are well pleased with what they have already seen of the Queen City. The formal arrest of Attorney J. E. Hawkins on a charge of disorderly conduct preferred against him by Officer Hubbard, which arose between the attorney and the officer, is in keeping with the well-known character of this officer. This man Hubbard prides himself on being a bully and on being able both by force and violence and official authority, of being able to abuse men and handle them as though they were brutes and be protected in it by the court. The Republican is of the opinion that neither Mr. Hawkins nor any one else could charge Officer Hubbard with being or doing anything that he is not guilty of and of course the guilty always fled when no one pursued. The matter was dropped. NEGRO MINING OPERATORS In the Great Buffalo Hump Gold District. The Clarence Ray Buffalo Hump Gold Mining Co. of Spokane is composed of nine of Spokane's enterprising business colored men, and was organized last February by the well-known mining man, Theodore F. Parks. They have been quietly but ardently working, and in this short space of time have made rapid strides toward success, which will soon identify them with the giant operators of that district. Theodore F. Parks is recognized by mining men throughout the West as an all-round miner, having followed mining from early boyhood, and his judgment is sought by many. He was among the first prospectors in the famous Cripple Creek district and made some valuable locations. He joined the great rush to the Buffalo Hump country in 1898 where he has been ever since, and has succeeded in securing a group of promising claims of the camp—which constitutes the holdings of the company. This property lies due north of the Jumbo, Monte Cristo Lodes, and joins the famous Crackerjack. The Crackerjack is one of the richest properties in the camp, having an 18-inch vein that averages the enormous sum of $600 per ton, and samples have been taken from this property that were more than half gold. This rich lead extends over the Clarence Ray Buffalo Hump Mining Co.'s property, and with sufficient development this property will prove as rich. They have the only natural tunnel site in the camp; this fact alone means a great deal, as it is likely to result into a bonanza at any stage of the development. The Clarence Ray Buffalo Hump Gold Mining Co. is pushing the work night and day on their tunnel in order to reach the main ledge before the snow flies. They have already encountered very fine ore, which assayed values in free-milling gold. The company has recently sent their secretary, Mr. George E. Anderson, to the Eastern states for the purpose of disposing of a block of treasury stock for the developing of its properties. Tell your merchant you saw his ad in The Republican.
