THE WEEKLY REVIEW Indians Turning Farmers and Becoming Self-Sustaining-The Indian Not Dying Out but on Increase-Another South American Revolution in Progress-Mortgaged Nations Full First-Large American Tanks in the Postal Service-Cleveland and Bryan "Has Beens." MANY INDIAN FARMS. The Indian, who was thought at one time to be rapidly dying out, but after careful investigation shows signs of increase instead of decrease, is rapidly developing into splendid farmers in those sections of the country where he has been assigned to reservations and has been taught the art of farming. It is now generally considered that the Indian should be taught more farming and less figuring, for as a figurer he seems to be an utter failure, but as a farmer a fair success. From the government reports that have recently been sent out it is learned that there are 38,000 Indians in the United States, who earn their own living by farm work. Last year it is claimed by this report, the Indian sold farm products to the value of $1,408,863 over and above the expenses of living, which was on an average of $40 per capita. Farming among the perioca Indiana has reached a high state of development, and some of them have farms in as high a state of cultivation as any farms found in the Eastern states, and this is not only true of the Kiowas, but it is likewise true of all of the Indians located in the Indian Territory and in that section of the United States. Even in the state of Washington where the Indians are taught farming, they are making much more progress than those that are supported by the government in idleness and permitted to continue their fishing and hunting pursuits. The Indian is not going to die out, and it is hardly fair for him to be continued as a public charge for all time to come, simply because generations ago his fathers were robbed of their hunting grounds by white persons beent on conquest. If there is anything the Indian can be made useful at, let him be put doing that and given encouragement along that line, that he may become self-sustaining instead of a public charge. OUR INDIAN STATES. Speaking about the Indians, the following figures may be of interest to persons giving the subject some study and consideration. There are today about 267,000 Indians in the United States, of which 22,900 do not work. Nearly seven per cent. of the entire reservation earn their own living. This does not include the five civilized tribes. Of the five civilized tribes there are at present 85,750 perhaps located in the Indian Territory. They are Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws and Seminoles; all of these tribes yet maintain their land in common, but an effort will be made to allot the same within the next year. These are educated Indians and, it is estimated that they earned last year from the sale of their produce $1,500,000. Every year the government expends $55,000,000 in trying to educate the redskins and set them up in farming. The Osage tribe are the richest Indians in the United States, and are said to be the most industrious. Last year they had 20,000 acres of land under cultivation, from which they raised 100,000 bushels of wheat, 10,000 bushels of oats and 500,000 bushels of corn. The Sioux trime outnumberers the Osages two to one, and they stick to cattle raising instead of farming. Last year they sold 12,000 head of cattle, realizing a profit therefrom of $53,000. The Cherokees are likewise great cattle raisers. Practical farming is being taught in most of the Indian schools at present. REVOLUTION IN COLUMBIA. The revolution in Columbia, one of the South American republics, is assuming proportions which makes it necessary for this country to send warships to their ports for the protection of American citizens and their interests there, who have from time to time become interested in financial matters in that part of the world. The people who make up the South American republics seem to be of a revolutionary, effervescent nature, and they overflow every time the political stopper is pulled out. There seems to be no such thing as a stable government south of the United States, though Mexico does make some pretenses along that line. This recent revolution in Columbia is nothing out of the ordinary, as it is but one faction endeavoring to overturn another faction, and but one faction trying to wrench the power from the grasp of another that already has the power. Such a state of affairs is not only true of Columbia, but it is likewise true of every republic in South America, and revolutions among them are as common as elections in the United States. Just why these people are not able to settle their differences and to run their governments without friction and fuss is a puzzling question to every civilized country, not only in the United States but throughout Europe. Spanish blood being prevalent among them, they seem to have lost most of the excitableness and characteristics of the people of the mother country, and prefer to settle their political differences with the gun and sword rather than with deliberation and discussion. MORTGAGED NATIONS. George E. Walsh has been led to remark that the fall of nations through all ages has been through internal decay and disintegration, rather than from invasion from armed enemies. National bankruptcy has been the cause of more nations tumbling to pieces than any other cause. The world's most powerful empires are rapidly crumbling to pieces on account of their bankrupt conditions. China has been compelled to borrow many million taels to meet her deficiency, contracted during various wars in which she has been engaged. She is now being called upon by the powers to pay another heavy indemnity for the raids made by the Boxers last year. The country is falling back instead of gaining in financial matters, and this, too, with millions and millions of souls as subjects of the great empire. No hostile nation at present stands on the border of the Chinese empire threatening the invasion of the country, nor is there any fighting within her borders, which will mean her overthrow, but the army of bankruptcy is getting in its deadly work, and unless some strong financial general goes to China's relief that government will go to pieces and soon be a thing of the past. The same bankrupt conditions are staring the republics of South America in the face, owing to the fact that they have been compelled to mortgage their country's credit to obtain same condition is likewise true of money from financial concerns. The same condition is likewise true of many of the governments of Europe, all of which clearly demonstrates the theory that bankruptcy and not war is the average nation's most potent enemy. OUR REVENUE LAWS. Despite the fact that the postal business of this country is doubling, trebling and quadrupling in turning in revenues to the national government to what it formerly did, nevertheless there is an annual deficit of upwards of $12,000,000, which deficit congress is compelled to make special appropriations to cover. Though the government a few years ago reduced the price of carrying a letter from three to two cents, and is not inclined to increase the rate again to three cents, notwithstanding the deficit, it is because the letter department of the government does not really run behind, but the trouble lies in the second-class matter, which has permitted circulars of all kinds, classes and descriptions to fill the mail and overflow it to such an extent that it requires so much additional help to handle it, which is responsible for the deficit. The Loud bill, which was introduced some time ago for the purpose of remedying this evil, was killed in congress, but now the postmaster general has ruled that second-class matter for advertising purposes shall be sent through the mails as first-class mail. If the courts hold this ruling good, it will to a great extent remedy the evil, and it will not be necessary in the future for large appropriations to be made by congress to cover the national deficit in the postoffice department. POLITICAL "HAS-BEENS." Both ex-President Grover Cleveland and would be President William Jennings Bryan are enjoying themselves at present in the political boneyard, vulgarly speaking, as both of them have been shelled for all time to come. There is no hope for ex-President Cleveland ever being able to extricate himself out of the political sea of "innocuous desuetude" in which he was plunged by the Bryan wing of the Democratic party that ruled the roost in 1896, and there is still less hope of Mr. Bryan ever extricating himself from the mountain of free silver under which he was caught in 1896 at the polls and which was repeated in 1900. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1901 BROTHER IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Ob serving Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Famine in Women Help in the South-Pullman Porters Form a Union of Their Own-Colored Girl House Servanta Get Together in Chicago-That Mississippi Lynching Condemned Even in the South - Alabama's Black Belt Growing. WOMEN HELP SCARCE. From an editorial in the Atlanta Constitution it is learned that there is much danger of the South experiencing a famine in colored women help, which conditions have been brought about by the women leaving for other sections of the country where they can get better wages for their work, than they could get in the South. The average woman cook in the South gets from $5 to $7 per month to not only cook but to likewise do all of the housework, whereas the same woman can go to other sections and get from $20 to $30 per month for the same work. The colored women have learned of this fact and have drifted away, and now a genuine famine in women help is staring the white women in the face, who, however poor they are, have struggled to keep a colored woman in their employ to do their work. Not being able to maintain this any longer, they must now begin to do their work themselves, and the Constitution has begun to teach them through its columns how to do their own work and be pleasant while they are doing it; in short, how to make the best of the situation. Had the same plan been adopted thirty years ago, the South would have been in a more healthy financial condition than it is now, and there would have been less trouble between the two races. UNIONISM RUNNING RIOT. This seems to be an age when unionism is running riot, as it is learned from a Chicago paper that 6,000 colored Pullman porters have formed a union in that city with the view of bettering their condition on the railroads. While the true intention of the organization is kept a secret by the men who formed it, yet there is no doubt but that they mean to strike a blow at some time for the bettering of their condition. "In union there is always strength," and the colored porters will find that they will soon better their condition if they will only hang together and make a determined fight. The name of the union will be the Railway Men's Mercantile League of Chicago COLORED COOKS COMBINE. Another union among colored folk has recently been formed in the city of Chicago, and it is none other than a servant girl union. It seems that already the white girls who labor in the city of Chicago have formed unions, and through their unions they manage to keep the colored girls from obtaining work as house servants. Now to counteract this move on the part of the white servants, the colored servant girls have formed another union, and, according to one who speaks with authority for the union, they will endeavor to make it very interesting for their white sisters. There are in the neighborhood of 10,000 colored girls who work in the city of Chicago for their daily bread, especially as servant girls, and these two laboring elements will make it quite interesting if they wage war against each other. Labor knows no color in the abstract, and all persons who labor should be united in one common cause, whether they be white or black, and if they are not, but on the contrary arrayed in two great armies, struggling to do each other up, the cause of labor will be lowered a hundred per cent, and neither side will get the wages that they are entitled to. SOUTHERN PAPERS PROTEST. So brutal and outrageous was the lynching of two men and one woman in Mississippi a few days ago that even the Southern papers were denouncing it with a vengeance. While those papers denounce this individual case, they nevertheless do nothing that will look forward to the prevention of similar disgraceful scenes. Not only Mississippi but the entire South is now practically run by outlaws, and men, women and children are lynched and burned at the stake for the most trivial offenses. One crime always begets another and there being but one party in the Southern states, and this a close corporation, those forming the corporation have succeeded in looting the states' funds and affairs in the most shameful way, and the financial condition of Mississippi is worse today than it was when carpet-baggery ruled the state in its wildest and most extravagant form. There is no doubt but that the condition of affairs are such in the South at present that an internal revolution will be the result unless a speedy halt is called. ALABAMA'S BLACK BELT. The state of Alabama has twelve contiguous counties, which is known as the "black belt," and their combined area is 9,367 miles, which is more than that of Massachusetts and Rhode Island taken together. In 1890 these counties had an aggregate white population of 79,291, and at present they have 87,202. In 1890 they had a Negro population of 299,681, at present they have 350,928 showing an increase in the whites of 7,911 and among the blacks 51,257 in ten years. Here is an opportunity for those persons who have been advocating a black state in which only Negroes could live and hold property and likewise hold office, to get in their work. The idea of a separate state for any race or nationality in this country is absurd, but there are a great many apologists who really think that such is the only way of settling the much mooted race problem in this country, and here is an opportunity for them to experiment on the proposition. The great Tuskegee normal school, of which Booker T. Washington is at the head, is likewise located in this black district, and it will serve as a splendid nucleus for the laying of the proper foundations to begin this new state. Booker Washington is generally admitted to be a man of sound judgment, and he would make a most excellent advisor for those in charge of affairs. It is therefore suggested in all earnestness that the state of Alabama take steps, instead of disfranchising the colored voters, to place them in this black district where they may form a state of their own and thus completely eliminate the colored vote from the state of Alabama. MANY RACIAL MEETINGS The colored folk of this country will hold quite a number of important race meetings during the present month. Chief among them is the National Afro-American Press Association, which has already been held in the city of Philadelphia, and which is said to have been a most interesting gathering of pencil pushers. The Press Association met August 6th, and lasted three days. Next was the National Afro-American Council, which likewise met in Philadelphia August 7th, and lasted three days. This meeting was attended by some of the most prominent colored men in the country, who took an active part in discussing the questions of the hour, touching upon the race problem of this country and likewise the overtures for harmony between the two races that are being made by the better element of both. The National Negro Business League will convene in Chicago the 21st inst., and this promises to be the most important meeting of the entire lot. It is headed by such able and well-known men as Booker T. Washington, T. Thomas Fortune and Edward E. Cooper. It is expected that the leading business men of the country will be present at the session of the league, and that the discussions will be of the most interesting nature. The discussions of the league at the previous meetings proved to be of so much interest that the reports were printed in book form and have had a wide sale throughout the country since they were first issued. TACOMA TALKS Tacoma is the Mecca around which the clans have been collecting for the past week, and as we go to press she is as full as a goat in more ways than one. The hotels and lodging houses are taxed to their utmost capacity to accommodate the visitors. The Order of Elks is great for fun and a good time, and the local orders are seeting to it that the visiting orders see the "white elephant" as he is. Mrs. Rose White will leave for Dawson City early in September, where she will join her husband. Mrs. John N. Conna had a letter from her husband not long since and he reports himself in good health. Mrs. J. C. Branchee visited with Mrs. N. J. Asberry a few days this week. Mr. H. P. Lawhorn and Mr. Will Turner are still much in evidence in municipal and county official circles. REALM OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Quasi Christians. PECULIAR CUSTOMS Catholics and, Dissenters Have Ruined Ireland—A More Liberal Religion Recommended and Taking Root—Americans Revising the Bible After Their Own Ideas—Women Missionaries Should Not Be China—Shows Religion Sketches as Observed by Religionists. CATHOLICS IN IRELAND: It is reported that the Catholics in Ireland are on the decrease both in numbers and in power, and the importance of the priesthood of Rome is no longer a significant fact in the conduct of general affairs, and a liberal Catholic church from a religious standpoint is taking the place of the old intolerant church, which ran all the politics, the religion and financial affairs of the entire land. Once upon a time there was a deadly enmity between the Dissenters and the Roman Catholics, but that state of affairs no longer exists and now the Dissenters look upon the mother church with much more favor than they did when the church oppressed every one who did not agree with it. HARMONY PREDICTED. It is predicted by a leading Catholic church worker that the Roman Catholic and the Dissenter of Ireland will find it necessary before many more years to again unite for their own interests. They have so long fought each other and with such awful desperation that they have succeeded in almost completely depopulating the entire island, as many of the inhabitants have come to the United States, Ireland, as was said in these columns not long since, has actually decreased in population fifty per cent. within the past century, and it is still on the decrease, and all because the Roman Catholic and the Dissenters continue to war with each other. The Dissenters, however, are far more liberal than the Roman Catholic, and even after they get to America this is clearly demonstrated, as the Roman Catholics cluster together in cities and communities, where they become dangerous political factors one way or the other, while the Dissenters become a part of the people and divide up in politics and religion, the same as any other nationality coming to America. BIBLE REVISION. According to the Sunday School Times, the American revision of the Bible will soon be issued by the American committee, though such revision, it is understood, will not be accepted by the English revisors. The first revision of the Bible was taken up under King James in 1611 and subsequent revisions have followed from time to time and have thereby brought out the true meaning of each word and sentence of the Bible. The revision that seems to have done most toward straightening out the work and twisted words of the Bible was that issued in 1885. GREENWOOD'S MISTAKE. Mr. Frederick Greenwood, in the London Nineteenth Century, suggests that only single men be sent to China as missionaries, lest the Chinese look upon missionaries with suspicion, when the two sexes are compelled to live in the same house, "Evil to him who evil thinks" might be very applicably said to Mr. Greenwood in this connection, for certainly the Chinese could look upon the missionaries with no more immoral suspicion than that that the Chinese themselves practice, but if the Christianity that the missionaries are expected to teach does not rise any higher than that, then it would be much better if it is no longer taught to the Chinese. The true lady and gentleman that cannot board and room under the same roof without having immoral suspicion thrown at them are unworthy of being called civilized people, and if they refuse to live in a house together because of such ill-flung suspicion, then they but give succor to the suspicion and strengthen those having such suspicions. REV. RANDALL RETURNS. Rev. E, M. Randall, pastor of the First M. E. church of this city, has returned from California, whither he went primarily to attend the Epworth League convention, and secondarily on his annual vacation. His sermon last Sunday morning was a description of his visit at San Francisco and his meeting of many of the Eastern delegates at that convention. Rev. Randall is a tireless LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 BLICAN Christian worker and his speech before the convention was loudly applauded by the delegates in attendance. CONFERENCE POSTPONED. The A. M. E. conference, which had been fixed to meet in Tacoma August 16th, has been postponed until August 29th. The conference will be called by Bishop Schaffer Thursday morning and will last three days, the appointments being read Sunday evening. It is thought by the presiding elder of this district that some new preachers may be transferred to this conference next year, and perhaps some new charges opened up. MISSION TRANSFERRED. The Moravian Missions in Green- land have been transferred to the Church of Denmark. They comprise s six stations, thirty-three out-stations, eight missionaries, and thirty native helpers. The missionaries will be transferred to other stations.—The Congregationalist. COMPULSORY CONVERSION A curious instance of religious fanaticism, though by no means a unique one, has recently come before the courts of Lemberg in Austriam, Poland. A wealthy Roman Catholic lady has been tried and convicted, and sentenced to three years' imprisonment for kidnapping a Jewish girl and confining her in a convent, where she was baptized against her parents' will. A NEW ACCESSION OATH. The report of the select committee of the house of lords appointed to consider the accession declaration of the sovereign, in regard to transubstantiation, finds that the language can be advantageously modified without diminishing its efficacy as security for the maintenance of the Protestant succession. The form of declaration suggested by the committee does not contain phrases relative to idolatry, etc., which are so objectionable to Roman Catholics. ROMAN CATHOLIC LOSSES IN AUS TRIA. The Lutheran authorities in Austria have recently published some figures in regard to the number of persons who have left the Roman church and inscribed their names as Protestants. In 1899 there were 6,385 who joined either the Reformed or Lutheran churches, and in 1900 4,699—or 11,084 in two years. Besides these many have freed themselves from Rome without formally becoming Protestants; and many have joined the Old Catholic church FOREIGN BIBLE SOCIETY The British and Foreign Bible Society's annual report states the year's issues at 4,914,000, a reduction of 133,000. This, however, is due wholly to the Chinese crisis. The falling off there is 250,000, so that there is a considerable gain in other fields. Foreign sales in 27 countries, through 812 colporteurs, were 1,600,000. The society maintains in the East 616 native Bible women, in connection with 30 missionary organizations. It supplies the P. S. G., the C. M. S., and the other great missionary organizations with most of the Scriptures that they need, and as a rule without cost. THE STRIKE SITUATION Editor Republican: Your mention of the assault upon my son contained one error viz., that the boy returned to work because his father told him to. Frank is doing for himself. It was his own idea to resume work after the shops re-opened. I am simply assisting him to acquire a thorough knowledge of the machinist trade. He is not a member of any labor union; is not eligible, being a mere apprentice. He is under no obligations to any organization, and prefers to be earning an honest living and learning a trade rather than to be walking the streets in idleness. His right to work is the right of an capitalists as criminals who oppress labor, are enemies of this kind. The professional agitator who stood before a Seattle audience last week and denounced the American flag as representing nothing but oppression and injustice is a treasonable, pestilent incendiary who abuses the liberty of free speech. Such persons are continually doing the cause of organized labor infinite harm. People sometimes wonder why, if this country is so bad, such persons do not hunt a better one and go there. I am sure we could spare them. Palsied be the hand or tongue that would raise a finger or enunciate a syllable against American institutions! THE PRESS GANG. Washington state's fifteenth press association convened last Tuesday with some 200 of the country editors and their wives present. The "gung" was given royal receptions during its stay in the City of Destiny, and every one present was willing to vote the honor to Tacoma in the entertaining of the pencil pushers. Nothing of importance transpired during the sessions of the association, for it's the outing and not the interest that press associations are kept up. Some day the state press association will see the necessity of holding two sessions a year, one in the winter for business and the other in the summer for pleasure and a general good time. The opening attraction of the season at the Seattle will be the big Tivoli Opera Company, direct from San Francisco's home of opera. The date set is September 8, and our people certainly have a treat in store in the coming of this famous band of singers. Ferris Hartman, the well-known comedian, heads the list, and with him are such clever people as Annie Myers, Arthur Cunningham, Bernice Holmes, Harry Cashman, Joseph Fogarty and a numerous bunch of minor players, besides a big chorus of pretty girls. San Franciscans are justly proud of their home organization, and Manager Howe could not have pleased us any better than he has done by securing this attraction. PALOMA AND KARLA SCHRAMM. Music lovers of the city will be delighted to know that Manager Cort, of the Grand, has engaged the wonderful child musicians, Karla and Paloma Schramm, for a recital next Tuesday evening. They made a wonderful impression when at the same theater last June, and will doubtless repeat that success on this coming visit. It would appear that the Seattle & Lake Shore Waterway Company propose to do something toward the building of their canal connecting Lake Washington with the Sound, as it has rectly rented the old pumping station at Lake Washington for the purpose of sluicing its right of way. "It never rains but what it pours," says an old adage, and it seems to be true in this canal business, for no sooner than had the government begun to build a Lake Washington canal than this private company likewise begun operations for another canal. Judge Emery has set the trial of the Considines for September 16th, when the biggest legal contest that King county has seen for a good many moons will be waged. Big Bill Morris is arranging his chain of evidence and says that he and his colleagues will win the case in a whoop. Hon. J. H. Schively and Will H. Nicholas have gone East and will be absent from the state some six weeks or more. They are on state insurance matters and will take in the Pan-American exposition while East. Hon. J. W. McConnaughey has returned from an extended trip through the East and is highly gratified to be home again, if for no other reason than to escape the hot weather that prevails through the East at present. Mr. McConnaughey says Puget Sound weather is like winter weather in comparison tothat of the East, and for that and that only did he desire to come home. Mrs. J. C. Branche and daughter Gloria left for their home last Tuesday. They were delighted with their stay on Puget Sound and are very grateful to the many persons who showed their personal favors while in the city. She will stop over for a couple of days in Tacoma and from there she will go to Denver, where she will remain the most of the month, endeavoring to reach home by the first of September.

There is no doubt but something is rotten in Denmark, which will break loose in a few days, and a sensation that will lay the Krug sensation completely in the shade will be the result. The bookkeeping system that prevailed while Mr. Whittlesey was county treasurer allowed discrepancies to creep in at every point, and those experting cannot explain, and not only can not they explain, but no one else can do so. If a shortage of $100,000 is not found, the Piemaker will be badly astonished, and still all of the shortage may not even then be shown up. As has been previously said in these columns, the Piemaker does not mistrust that Mr. Whittlesey himself knew anything of the condition of affairs in his office, but there is no doubt but that some one did know, and that some one should be made to account for the shortage by criminal proceedings being instituted against him or them. Hon. W. L. Jones, better known as Yakima Jones, was seen on the streets of our city one day this week and was looking the picture of a Yakima farmer picking peaches. "I am in perfect health and am enjoying myself as well as the hot weather on the other side will permit me, I always enjoy a trip to the Sound because I find it much more cool and pleasant here than at my home, and then I enjoy the bustle of the Queen City. Things seem to be lively here, the strike to the contrary notwithstanding, and it makes me feel good to look up and down your streets and find things moving as they are. No, there is no politics in the wind just now, in fact the most of us are doing all we can to keep away from politics, yet I would suggest to the Republicans of this state, and more especially of King county, that they to some extent settle their factional differences and look forward to the next election with the view of electing the entire ticket instead of a part of it, as they did last year. Yes, I have seen my name mentioned in connection with the senatorial contest, but I am not a candidate for that position in no sense of the word, but at the proper time I will be a candidate for re-election to the lower house of congress, only that and nothing more. I do not mean by this if the next legislature should offer the senatorial plum to me on a silver ladle that I would not accept it, for those are things that human beings do not very often throw down, but, as said above, I am in no sense a candidate for the honor." In speaking about what action congress would take in reference to cutting down the number of representatives from the South, Mr. Jones remarked: "I see no reason why the South should feel aggrieved at its number of representatives being cut down in proportion to the number of actual votes if casts; I see no injustice to it, and I do not see why the Republicans will not vote for the measure. I certainly am in favor of it, and, if it comes before the body at the next session I will do all that I can to see that it is passed. There is no reason and justice in a Southern man having five times the voting power of a Northern man, and I for one am not in favor of it. If those colored people are unit to vote, they are unit to be counted, and I shall use my influence and vote to have congress see it in that light. However, I have no idea what steps congress will take in the matter, as it has never been an issue in the house as yet." The Elks' carnival, which began in Tacoma last Wednesday, is attracting quite a crowd of visitors, and among the crowd there are to be found large numbers of politicians who hope to meet other politicians from other points in the state with the view of strengthening their political fences for this and that office as well as this and that political favor, which they desire to obtain. More politics will be done in Tacoma during the present carnival than was done at the last legislature, and that is saying a good deal. While the Elks' association is non-political, yet it has a great many members who are leaders in both of the political parties, and they will do a little politics on the side, while they are having a good time at the carnival. Ex-Sheriff Van De Vanter was not successful in being re-elected to the office of sheriff of King county, but he has successfully worked on the King County Fair proposition until it is now a certainty and his financial prospects are brighter now than if he had been elected sheriff of the county. It is reported that he has reserved all of the saloon rights of the fair grounds for himself, and this alone means a mint for him, and if he should decide to be a candidate next year for renomination and election he will make an interesting fight for the honor. The Piemaker has been informed now that Dr. J. J. Smith is no longer at Franklin, but has pitched his tent in a little town on the Northern Pa- cific railroad near Columbia, that he will have a hard time in getting the nomination for state senator from the South district again. For the past three years Dr. Smith has had smooth political sailing, because it was generally supposed that he was backed by the Pacific Coast Company, but having withdrawn from that company he will find it rather hard to pull through for another nomination, and then if it be true that ex-Sheriff Van De Vanter and ex-Senator Wooding will manage the Ankney campaign in this county it is more than likely that one of them will stand for the nomination for state senator in order to swing the gang in the senate. Both of these men have enjoyed terms as state senators and had phenomenal success as such, and if either one of them should decide to return, they would make an interesting fight for both the nomination and election. If reports be true, Jim Wilson, who is now a resident of Kent, wants to be the next postmaster of that thriving little burg. This is only rufor and cannot be verified, but there is no denying the fact that there is an element in the county with which Mr. Wilson trains with that faction that is opposing the re-appointment of Mr. A. A. Risedorph, and if that element can succeed in defeating Mr. A. A. Risedorph there is no doubt but what Mr. Wilson will receive the appointment. It will be remembered that Mr. Wilson was chief deputy under sheriff Van De Vanter and it is also said that he is now a partner in business with Mr. Van De Vanter, and the combine of which Mr. Van De Vanter is at the head, it is claimed, hopes to make Mr. Wilson postmaster and thereby kill the political enemy in the Risedorphs. It is currently reported throughout the city at present that Hon. John W. Pratt will soon move to the First Ward with the view of being a candidate for corporation counsel next spring, and likewise with the view of having the First Ward delegation to back him in the convention in this direction. Mr. Pratt has been connected with the legal department of this city for a number of years and he feels that it is time for him to step up and have absolute control of that department. Politically speaking, he has allied himself to the Humes faction, and if he moves to the First Ward it will be with the view of the Humes people helping him out in the city convention for the position he is now seeking. The water shortage in Seattle, notwithstanding the fact that she has a water supply sufficient to accommodate a city twice the size of Greater New York and then some, is causing quite a bit of comment on the streets at present. City Engineer Thompson comes in for his share of adverse criticism, and it is quietly hinted that he has made a failure in engineering the entire system and has caused the city to lose a million dollars worth of work and improvement. Competent engineers who have given the system some study, claim that Mr. Thompson's work will all have to be gone over again from start to finish, which, if true, is a shame and a disgrace. The Piemaker is inclined to believe that Mr. Thompson has held the position of city engineer entirely too long, not that he is opposed to him as a man, but there has been so many complaints registered against him from time to time that he believes that it is impossible for there to be so much smoke without some fire, and the Piemaker does know that there is absolutely as much water scarcity in the city now as there was when the old pumping station was being run at Lake Washington, and this Mr. Thompson declared prior to the opening of the Cedar river system would not be the case. Cedar river has an ample supply to afford Seattle water to run to waste on every street, and yet cause no scarcity in the buildings, and if now there is a water scarcity in any of the buildings or in any portion of the city it comes from a faulty system rather than from a lack of water, and if there is a faulty system Mr. Thompson is wholly responsible for it. This paper takes no stock in carping critics who wish to criticize because they have nothing else to do, but it does know that there is not sufficient water in the city to accommodate its needs, and somebody is to blame for it, as there is plenty of water in Cedar river if it is only gone after properly. If lynchings in the South were confined to persons who committed outrages on women, there might be some excuse for them, but there are just as many persons lynched for petit larceny and other trivial offenses as for the more heinous crime against nature. The lynching record of the present year will show that not over forty per cent. of the persons lynched in the South committed no crime that, should they have been convicted for in the North, would have warranted more than a ten years' sentence in the state's prison for the same. That pandemonium, anarchy and chaos reigns supreme throughout all of the Southern states at present goes with- CHINERY MANUFACTURED MACHINERY MANUFACTURED Hoisting and Logging Engines a Specialty...

It may be that this or that department of our government has no legal rights to interfere in such matters, but it seems at some stage of the game some authority would be justified to step in and prevent the country drifting into moro-cracy and border lawry. If it be true that the great "middle class" of citizens of this country are already in the clutches of the money trust, it is also more than true that the labor trust is struggling to fasten its fangs about the middle class, the upper class and likewise the lower class, even more firmly than has the money trust. While we are willing to admit that the money trust is a most dangerous trust so far as our government is concerned, yet we firmly believe that the labor trust is doubly dangerous, and should it become a fixture in the workings of our government, it would not be many years before the United States government would be wrecked beyond separation. It is perhaps true that money gives the average man all things he desires, especially in the shape of legislation and influence, but there is always hope for the people being educated so as to overcome this obstacle, but with anarchism the chief cornerstone of our government, it could not last long as a stable institution.

Bailey, presiding elder of the A. M. E. church of this district, was doing business in the Queen City this week. He returned to Tacoma Tuesday. Mr. James Allen, who was at one time a familiar figure among the boys on the streets of the Queen City, and who has been in Colorado for the past six years, returned to the city last Friday with the viey of again casting his lot here. The steward board of the A. M. E. church of this city contemplate running an excursion to Tacoma Sunday, August 31st, in order that those who desire can be present at the last day of the conference and return that night. 一 Mrs. B. F. Tutt contemplates visiting her old home in Kansas City Mo., and its immediate vicinity about August 20, where she will remain for two months or more. In the meantime Mr. Tutt promises to play the bachelor's act to perfection. Hon. J. H. Schively and Wm. H. Nichols, both of the Secretary of State's office, passed through the city one day this week en route East on business connected with the office in which they are employed. They will be absent from the city some six weeks or more. Mrs. Joseph Bennett is still seriously ill suffering from a severe attack of nervous porstration. The Evergreen Literary Society held its regular weekly meeting last Wednesday evening at the Young Naturalists' hall, and those in attendance report a most interesting session. --- Over the division of a two-dollar bill, which had been earned by J. E. McGowan and Robert Miller doing window cleaning, a fight culminated, which resulted in McGowan being seriously if not fatally stabbed with a butcher knife and Miller getting shot with a pistol in the hands of McGowan. McGowan is now a patient at the hospital, while Miller is a fugitive from justice. No more than two months ago McGowan was so unfortunate as to lose both his wife and child at the same time and now the prospects are quite favorable of him soon following them. It is reported that he was the aggrressor. Tell your merchant you saw his ad in The Republican. Does the store you trade at advertise in this paper? No; then trade in the store that does.

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 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.
