The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VIII.. No. 13 Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. THE WEEKLY REVIEW Will the Chinese Exclusion Act be Renewed-No End in Sight of Steel Strike-Uncle Sam's Financial Status Per Excellent-Great Lake Concerns Want to Build Warships-Boston Corbett Turns Up Again-Bonsted of Killing Booth-Gov. Newell Dend. GEARY ACT EXPIRES Speaking about the decrease in the Chinese population for the past few years calls to mind that the Chinese exclusion act expires May 5th, 1902, and the renewal of which promises to cause much discussion, both pro and con. Many of the leading and most influential daily papers in the East, as well as many of the leading industrial operators, do not favor the proposition of enforcing the Chinese exclusion act as it deprives the country of a vast amount of help that it is sadly in need of at present, while, on the other hand, organized labor will wage a bitter war against admitting Chinese into this country, as were they prior to the passage of the Geary act. To discontinue the Chinese exclusion law would demoralize labor all over the Pacific coast, and, perhaps, the same might be said as to many points in the Eastern states, and while the United States has no particular objections to encouraging friendly relations with the Chinese government, yet it should not consider for a moment any proposition of admitting Chinese in wholesale lots into this county to take the place of laboring people and thus put the country in a worse demoralized labor condition than it now is. STEEL STRIKERS STRIKE ON. It is remarkable with what tenaciousness the steel strike holds on. Weeks and months ago it was maintained by those who seemed to know whereof they spoke, that the steel strike would soon be settled, but it has continued to hang on and still there is no visible evidence that it will be settled at any time within the very near future. As has been repeatedly said in these columns, this seems to be war to the knife between capital and labor, each realizing that the success of one means the final overthrow of the other. United labor lost a point in this deadly struggle when it failed to call out all labor union help in a general "sympathetic strike," and the steel strikers failing in that point must prepare to fight it out relying on their own strength to accomplish this purpose. UNCLE SAM GETS GOLD. The financial conditions of the United States have materially improved since 1893 or thereabouts, when Grover Cleveland as president of the United States was borrowing money from foreign powers at an exorbitant rate of interest and gold was flowing out instead of into the country. At the opening of the business year, beginning July 31st, the United States had in its possession the largest fund of gold held by any nation in the world and the greatest ever before possessed at once by this government, as on that date the fund amounted to $504,354,297. The fund now held by the United States treasury consists of the following items: Amount held against gold certificates $292, 535, 689; reserved, $105,000,000; monies in the general fund of the treasury, $61,818,508 which shows that after all of the government's financial obligations have been fully liquidated and the constitutional gold reserve laid away she will still have an immense sum to her credit for the benefit of internal improvements. No government has ever before had so large a gold reserve on hand as above mentioned except the Russian government which at one time is said to have had a gold fund of $398,700,000. ABROGATE THE TREATY. The treaty which was entered into between the United States government and Great Britain to the effect that neither of the great nations should maintain or build warships on the Great Lakes, which separated the United States government from the British possessions, is not being favorably looked upon at this time in the United States. Not that the citizens of this country desire to maintain an armed fleet on the Great Lakes for fear of foreign invasion, but the owners of large ship yards and lumbering industries labor under the belief that to not be permitted to build warships on the Great Lakes works a financial injustice on them, and, if the treaty was annulled, it would offer them an opportunity to compete in the ship building business, and if they were permitted to compete in the building of war vessels for the nation, it would greatly lessen the cost of building such to the government. There seems to be method in their madness, and it is more than likely that some steps will be taken by the government authorities to abrogate the foolish treaty. To abrogate this specific treaty, it requires the government so desiring to serve a six months' notice on the other government before doing so, and this, it is thought, will be done by the United States; not in a spirit of jingoism, but in a business spirit pure and simple. It means much to the laboring industries on the Great Lakes, and the treaty should be broken at once, if not sooner. BOSTON CORBET NOT DEAD. It will be news to most persons to learn that Boston Corbett, the man who slayed John Wilkes Booth, the slayer of President Lincoln, is not yet dead and not only not dead, but is traveling agent for a medical company, with headquarters in Topeka. Some years ago Boston Corbett, whose home was in Cloud county, Kansas, was selected by the Kansas legislature as its sergeant at arms. In that capacity he acted during the most of the session, but taking exceptions to something that was said by some of the members contrary to his political belief, he commanded the legislature to adjourn, and in its refusal to do so he pulled two navy sixes out of his pocket and began firing, which soon depopulated the hall. For this act Corbett was arrested, tried and found guilty of insanity and was confined in an insane asylum. subsequently he escaped from the asylum, and the authorities gave it out that he was dead. If now transpires that he was dead, nor was he actually crazy, for after his escape he was employed by a medical company as its agent, and was acted in that capacity since 1878. He refuses to return to Kansas, believing that he would again be confined in the asylum if he once got into the clutches of the Kansas officials. Before he was supposed to be dead he received a pension from the government and since that time the fund has been accumulating until now it amounts to something over $1,400. He also has valuable property in Cloud county, and this he refuses to make any disposal of on return to Kansas to claim his pension, and it is utterly impossible for him to ever get the same unless he does return and make affidavits to the effect that he is not dead. He is by no means a very old man, being but 62 at his last birthday. PERSONAL EXPESRIENCE The writer is of the opinion that a more eccentric man never lived than Boston Corbett, and he knows this from personal experience with the man. Having lived in Cloud county, Kansas, and being connected with a hotel in that city, he often met Corbett, as he stopped at the hotel whenever he came to town from his country residence. But notwithstanding his eccentricities he was a most interesting man to talk to, and was well read on most all subjects, but took more interest in war affairs and religion than anything else. He never tired of telling how he shot Booth, nor of the satisfaction it gave him to do so. It was perhaps his eccentricities that led him to settle in the remote part of Western Kansas, which at the time was sparcely settled, and where he solddom had a friend or an acquaintance to visit him. Apparently he lived happily, surrounded only by his dumb animals, and his little farm eighteen miles to the nearest railroad station. He was fond of the old soldiers and visited all of the reunions in the county and state, and seemingly derived a lot of pleasure from making his annual visits to those places. It is very evident that the man was never crazy or he would never have had the success as a traveling man that he has had since escaped from the asylum. Taking it all in all, Boshn Corbett is one of the remarkable historic characters that this country will read about for ages and generatoins yet to come. FORTUNE FAST FADED. Fickle fortune never faded from the grasp of a human being more completely than it did from Ex-Governor W. A. Newell, who recently died in Allentown, New Jersey. Though Dr. Newell had associated with the lords and grandes, with the highest and lowest officials of the land, and the richest and poor- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1901 est to be found, and had enjoyed every privilege that wealth and fame could bring to any man, he died a few days ago in poverty and rags. He was not a wayward wreck, a drunken son, a branded criminal, nor could he be charged with having been anything but a most excellent type of humanity, and yet fortune from time to time continued to hide its face from him until it left him a physical wreck and likewise friendless and fitfull. Though he was at one time a member of the United States Congress, subsequently governor of the state of New Jersey, still later governor of the state of Washington, and likewise the father of the government life-saving service, all of which must have added thousands of dollars to his credit, he died in a lodging house uncared for, and his remains would have been taken to the potters' field had it not been for someone who thought it a disgrace to our country for such a thing to be permitted and gave the remains a decent burial. During his stay at Olympia, Governor Newell was always favorably known to everybody. In his later years, however, he developed ideas peculiar to himself and ideas that Republicans were inclined to pronounce Populistic; nevertheless, his ideas were always worthy of consideration and were intended to be in the interests of the poor people among whom he lived. The estrangements which came between him and his party caused him to be overlooked by the later day partisans, and in his declining years he thought best for him to return to New Jersey for the purpose of regaining some of his former popularity with his party, but he died before regaining any of his former strength or popularity, and as a result his remains were buried without honor or ceremony, though he had rendered his country proportionately as much service, as had any man who had made him governor of the territory of Washington, the immortal Abraham Lincoln. IteMS OF INTEREST Vassar College has a farm embracing 1,000 acres of land. In 1900 there were 5,151 constables in Scotland, or one to every 847 persons. The world's consumption of cotton is estimated at about 14,000,000 bales a year. General DeWet is said to be the finest horseman in South Africa, and is likewise a crack shot. The Cross of the French Legion of Honor has been bestowed upon thirty-eight different women. It requires four years for the coffee plant to reach maturity and produce profitable crops. A man in Calaveras county, California, is hatching phesants in incubators. There are ten battalions in the British regular army that still wear the old Scotch kilts. Tasmania is said to be the richest island of the Australasian group from a mineral standpoint. During the past century, it is estimated that Ireland has lost 1,746,000 people from famine. It is estimated that the inhabitants of Ontario write more letters than all the rest of Canada combined. It is estimated that the population of London during the day numbers 33,850, while the night is 28,039. The census returns show that the percentage of capital invested in manufacturing in Rrode Island has increased 42.2 per cent, since 1890. The widows and orphans of the soldiers who lost their lives in the South African war are to be pensioned by the British government. According to entomologists the sugar cane plant has 227 varieties of insects as enemies to its perfect maturity. By the will of Jacob H. Rogers, the Locomoters Museum of New York was left an endowment fund of $8,000,000, which is to purchase works of art for the museum. A cement house is under construction at Pittsburg. Vast quantities of furnace slag that are thrown away each year will be used in manufacturing cement houses if this proposition proves practical. The Moniteur, one of the best known journals throughout the world, ceased to appear last month after an existence of more than a century. It was founded in 1790, and was the French government organ until 1868. BROTHER Under Critical Eye of Ob serving Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS Father's Fortune—Lynched One Hundred—"Rapid Fire" Burkins Dead—Graduating Roster—Peter Jackson Passes away—Tuskseeeee Remembered —Hogan Retires—Commercial Combinationts —Defend Yourselfs—Murray an Historian Mrs. Yates Selected—Other Notes LEFT A FORTUNE. Robert Rhiems is the name of a colored barber, who recently sailed for Australia to claim a fortune which was left by his father a year ago, who died in that country. The father was formerly a slave in this country, but escaped and went to Australia and engaged in the mining business and accumulated a fortune, which was not claimed until his son Robert proved his identity a few days ago. ALABAMA'S LYNCHING SPIRIT. Within the past ten years 100 persons of color have been mobbed and lynched in the state of Alabama, all of whom were taken directly from the possession of the officers of the law. AN INVENTOR DEAD. Eugene Burkins, a young Afro-American inventor, who furnished the the government with Burkins rapid fire gun, died in New Orleans July 11th. WILBERFORCE'S SUCCESS. At the thirty-eighth annual commencement exercises at Wilberforce University, a denominational school under the auspices of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, thirty-six young men and women received diplomas from the academic department. A REMARKABLE PUGILIST Peter Jackson, the well known colored pupil, died in Australia a few days ago, in every sense a full fledged pauper. At one time Jackson was admired throughout the world, and he could have given his check then for $100,000 and the same would have been honored at his bank, but he lived a fast life and he lived to see the time come when his fast living caused him to have to beg his bread. Poor Peter! The old adage of "a fool and his money soon part" was very applicable to him, but unfortunately for him, he not only parted with his money, but he likewise parted with his health and finally his life. GETS A BIG WAD. Within the past few months the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute has received $40,000 toward an endowment fund, which was contributed by two persons, one living in Boston and the other in New York, who will not permit the disclosure of their names. HOGAN HAS RETIRED Ernest Hogan, the "unbleached American" as he styles himself, has practically retired from the stage, and has bought him a home in New York and is making quite a financial success at song writing at present. Hogan started his musical career in the city of Seattle, making his first appearance on the stage of one of the local theaters here. He has written a number of songs, which have netted him well for his trouble. JOINT STOCK COMPANIES In a number of the Southern towns large joint stock companies are being organized among the Afro-Americans for the purpose of engaging in the mercantile business. The first efforts that were made along this line proved a failure, but at present there are a number of joint stock companies in operation among the colored folk in various places in the country, all of which are doing exceedingly well. Even in Chicago there is a joint stock mercantile institution, which has branched out on a most elaborate plan, and if the Inter-Ocean can be believed on this point, it promises to become a rival of some of the large department stores that are so common to the city of Chicago. USE YOUR GUN. The Afro-American Press Association, which recently met in Philadelphia, is said to be on record as advising the use of the shotgun on the part of the colored folk to prevent lynchings in the South. The shotgun effectively used proves a most salient lesson, it must be admitted, but the shotgun game is one that two can play at, and in the end it is more than likely that the colored man would be weighed in the balance and found wanting, if he should start in to playing the game in the United States. KNOWS HIS BUSINESS. Hon. Daniel H. Murray, assistant librarian in the Congressional library, is said to be an historian of the most profound type, and is as well versed in this line as any educator in the United States. Mr. Murray is originally from Maryland, where he enjoys the distinction of being one man of color on whom the "color line" is very seldom drawn, and for no other reason than on account of his national reputation as an historian and a scholar in general. WOMAN OF THE WEST When Mrs. Josephine Silone Yates was elected to the presidency of the National Association of Colored Women over such well known characters as Mrs. Ex-Senator Blanche K. Bruce and Mrs. Prof. Booker T. Washington, it was an admission on the part of the Eastern ladies that Mrs. Yates was not only their equal, but quite their superior. But such an admission was wholly unnecessary, for Mrs. Yates, from an educational standpoint is head head and shoulders above any woman of color in the United Sates. YOUR OWN ENEMY. An exenange published by a colored man gives utterance to the following very interesting and applicable remarks: "The color of our skin is not the worst of our afflictions. The lack of moral stamina, punctuality, original thoughts, thorough execution and patience, is what keeps the Negro in the background. CHINAMEN DECREASING. According to the last census there are but 89,500 Chinamen in this country, snowing a decrease of 17,500 from the number reported in 1890. The Chinese exclusion laws account for this wonderful decrease in the Mongolian population in the United States. AN EXCELLENT BUILDING The building for the colored folks in the Inter-state and West Indies exposition, which will be held in Charleston, South Carolina, between this and Juni 1st, 1902, is said to be the most elaborate of its kind that has yet been erected on any exposition grounds. It will be erected on a 150-acre tract, two and one-half miles from the business center of Charleston, and the building will contain 15,000 square feet of floor space and walls sufficient to accommodate all of the exhibits that will be taken thereto. A special effort will be made by the colored folk in the South to make this exhibit the finest that has ever been seen on any similar occasion. The directors under whom the exhibit will be are Booker T. Washington, commissioner-in-chief; W. D. Crum, M. D. assistant commissioner; Thomas J. Jackson, secretary and field agent Booker T. Washington, chairman Tuskegee, Ala.; W. D. Crum, acting chairman, Charleston, S. C.; N. B Sterrett, Charleston, S. C.; Thomas E. Miller, Orangeburg, S. C.; C. W Bennett, Charleston, S. C.; J. L Dart, Charleston, S. C.; E. A. Law rence, Charleston, S. C.; William Inglis, Charleston, S. C.; W. J. Parker, Charleston, S. C. MISSOURI NEGROPHOBIA. Anti-Negro riots have broken out in Pierce county, Missouri, over the murdering of a young white girl, the murderer being unknown, and as a result two Negroes were lynched on general principles and many others were shot and otherwise butchered up and their homes burned. Chaos has prevailed and the Negroes have been driven completely from the community. The Chinese Boxers committed just such outrages as this on the Christian missionaries, and for their savage acts the world's great powers sent great armies into the Chinese country and after thousands of the Chinese had been butchered in a spirit of revenge, the Chinese sued for peace, which was only granted after a price had been placed on the head of every Christian killed or in any way molested and many million taels paid for the same. The white Christians, however, can perpetrate the same acts of savage barbarity on the Negroes and cultured and refined Christianity ap plauds. Deliver us, O Most High from such a Christianity as this. REALM OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Ouasi Christians. PECULIAR CUSTOMS For Free Hospital Beds in the Lippy -Says the Gennesian Account Chep Fiction—Is Any Part of the Bible-Untrue—The Laboring Man and the Church-Climbs the Snoo- hoo. More Inviting than the Church-Christians Cater to Millionaires? FREE HOSPITAL BEDS An effort is being made in Seattle by the Protestant denominations to furnish a part of the Lippy Hospital with free beds and apartments for persons unable to pay for hospital accommodations, and yet are compelled to be taken to some hospital for treatment. For years a great many of the miners in this section of the country labored under the belief that Providence Hospital was a charity hospital pure and simple, and if they should happen to get sick or injured, whether they had the money to pay their bills at the hospital or not, they would be taken in and cared for by that institution. This, however, is not correct, as the Providence Hospital authorities will take no one who is not able to pay his or her bills. No sooner is the money of any patient out than such person is taken to the county hospital, this having been found out by the miners, they no longer contribute as they formerly did. Now this move on the part of the Protestants to have a charity department, pure and simple, is a most commendable one, and it is hoped that all persons will contribute something towards maintaining it as such. To run a charity department in any hospital means an outlay of a considerable sum of money without any compensation, and to maintain this it must be supported by charity, and there are enough Protestant churches in this city to maintain such in good shape and it should be done. ATTACK GOOD BOOK. The Bible is being attacked in Chicago from a most unexpected source. The Pilgrim Series Sunday school quarterlies issued for Sunday schools of the Congregational church, are advocating that the Bible account of the creation is in opposition to history and science, and that the story of the fall of man is regarded as allegorical and by no means literal. It is assumed by the ablest divines of the land that, if there is one sentence in the Bible that can be successfully disputed, it destroys the effect of the entire book. If, therefore, the Congregational church accepts the teachings of the editor of the Sunday School Quarterly, it means a radical overthrow of the former biblical faiths and the religion of our fathers will be badly shaken. If the account of the creation be a story without foundation or facts, but purely one of fiction, then why is not the account of the crucifixion of Christ equally fictitious and every other point on which the Bible is based? If the story of the fall of man is mere mythology and has no real foundation, then why is not the redemption of man equally mythological, and the whole biblical theory a roaring farce? But this new theory will not become very firmly fixed in the minds of the human family for a good many generations yet to come. MATTER MUCH DISCUSSED. The Brooklyn Times in discussing this matter is lead to remark, there are very few clergymen, and a very few men in general, who have given any degree of attention to Bible study who would not be ready to give hearty endorsement to a much stronger statement of the unscientific character of the record in Genesis than the above. It is right that children should be reared in respect and reverence of all pure and holy things, but nothing is gained by teaching them to believe what they will be most thoroughly taught not to believe later in life. And along this line it likewise reasons that parents should not teach their children the harmless fiction of Santa Claus, for, when the child has its faith shaken in that direction, it will upset its ideas along that line that it will not believe anything that does not have facts and figures to prove its actual existence. CHURCH AND LABORERS. A leading church worker has pounded three pertinent questions to labor leaders, asking their attitude toward the church of Christ LIBRARY CITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS and from the replies that were returned to the divine it is learned that the laboring folk in this country are taught by labor leaders to shun and fight all churches and all things with a religious influence. The three questions and answers are as follows: 1. What is the chief fault that workingmen in and with the church? To the average workingman the church seems to work in the interest of the captainman. In fact, the preacher and the wealthy men run everything. There is no freedom of thought in the church, and you expect us to pay pew rent in order to be told we are going straight to hell. You scout us for neglecting our spiritual and eternal welfare for such a thing as bounty wants, but you do not give us the things we need for our earnest lives. The church has not taken its place in our lives as our friend and our defender. It upmous and endorses the present industrial system, which is responsible for most of our misery. It has been antagonistic to the rights of labor, and therefore we keep out of bad company. 11. What, in your opinion, takes the place of the children in the life of the average workingman? The lodge takes the place of the church in many workingmen's lives, because here every member is equal to the other and all are made welcome. We also find a substitute in the labor union, we go to the union because it upgrades our wages against persons who generally control the churches, and because it is the only thing that gives us protection so that we can earn a living. The club room claim many more, because it gives the general news and questions of interest to those who are similarly situated with us in the city. The place of the church is being actually taken by the saunon, for it is mostly here that the workingman must occasion to become enthusiastic. The saunon offers many attractions in the way of onions, pool, reading rooms, gymnasium, etc. III. How do they regard Jesus (thirst) many regard Jesus as a good man—one who knew what it was to earn money by hard work, and who, were on earth today, would be a good and true friend, not expecting too much from the man with little education, but giving him his just due, making allowance for some of his shortcomings. We believe that Jesus Christ advocated the doctrine of co-operation, the brotherhood of man, and socialism, and if there had been labor organizations during this time on earth He would have been one of the very first carpenters to join. He is also regarded as a great teacher whose character was exemplary and well worthy of imitation. But the average workingman considers Christ in about the same right as he is held by the average orthodox minister. His mission on earth was to save sinners, to establish right relations among men, to set up his kingdom. IV. What, in your opinion, should engage the attention and the activities of the church? The church should preach the gospel of socialism, which is nothing else than the gospel of Jesus Christ. It should be as friendly to the poor man as the rich, and not make nesh of one and bones of the other. The active members of the church should put their heads together and institute workingmen's clubs, providing pleasant rooms for them, with games and reading matter. I think that the church could assist us if it would make public some of the places where garments worn by people are manufactured. We have children who ought to be in school, working in overcrowded sweatshops, hardly fit for a human being. The church should interest itself in the tenement house problem. How can we live decent lives when we are crowded, sometimes 200 in a single house? The church needs also to make its services more vivacious and brotherly, more practical. The minister who has a message, whose voice brings an inspiration of quickened life, will have a large hearing, both of workingmen and business men, as well as of women and children. He should visit the dens of vice and crime and preach there. It won't hurt him. It never hurt Jesus Christ, and he can follow in His footsteps. The canal project to connect the Caspian and Black Seas will cost $20,000,000. The waterway is to be 23 feet deep and 150 feet broad, and will begin at Astrakhan on the Caspian Sea and end at the harbor of Taganrog on the Sea of Azar. It is a Russian project from start to finish. BUSINESS DIRECTORY REPUBLICAN READERS Crawford and Conover ought to set 'em up. That Paris flying machine finally got up against it and since that time it has ceased to fly. But the "Kansan philosophy" is so thoroughly established in your noddle that you do according to your kind. A fool kind. In Senator Stewart's advocacy of Mark Hanna for president in 1904, he drives the last nail into the coffin of old 16 to 1. The pessimist who thinks "this world no friend to grace," should not overlook the fact that it is at least his dwelling place. Today's official entertainment at the court house in this city is one that The Republican takes no exceptions at not being invited to. Now that crazy Nordstrom has been hung and Justice can morbidly snarl, "Vengeance is mine," we trust some people will breath easy. There is no doubt by "that God still lives," however, that seems to be no evidence of the fact that lynching will cease. A "legal hanging" in King county is a novelty. It is a noteworthy coincident that both the Tacoma and the Seattle hangings were performed by Democratic sheriffs. A drunken sea captain is capable of doing a whole lot of damage if it BUSINI be true that the wreck of the Islander, on which sixty persons lost their lives, is due to the drunken condition of the captain. The allegation that the Patriarch is the mouthpiece for saloons still stands unimpeached, and as editor and proprietor of the Patriarch and being a man of ripe old age, you should be in better business than in blasting men's souls. It is perfectly safe to view with suspicion and mistrust the fellow who thinks that his moral standing is improved by refusing saloon ads. This kind of boaster is always a very cheap moralist.—Clayson's Patriarch. Ex-Governor Altgeld is distressed over the fact that every other man in Chicago is a millionaire. Mr. Altgeld has said a whole lot of things that the average person has reason to question their truthfulness, and this is one of them. The state of Iowa has Cummings that may develop into presidential goings, if the man recently nominated for governor of that state by the Republicans can only sweep it by a big enough majority, his presidential stock may be taken both coming and going. The talk of making Thomas B. Reed the Republican presidential candidate in 1904 is perfectly absurd. Mr. Reed may be a most excellent man, but he is no longer a Republican, and the Republican party is not inclined to nominate men without a party for its national standard-bearer. No, if the whole truth were known, Thomas Jefferson Humes was not the only man that voted against J. M. Frink last year and in the same political boat Foster, Grosse-cup, Hamilton, Belle and many other Tacoma politicians might have been found. There must be something in the South American wind, as our government is rushing warships by the score to the seat of war between Venezuela and Colombia, which same thing European governments are likewise doing. Perhaps the United States has an eye single to Uncle Samming the entire American continent, but the citizens of the United States for a general thing do not entertain any such idea or hope. They, however, do entertain the idea that no European nation has any right to make conquest of any of the South American republics, and stand ready to shoulder their muskets to prevent it. The United States has no particular desire to rule those fussy little republics in South America, but she has no intention of letting the other fellow rule them, however much the other fellow may desire to do so. European governments need not worry about this country and its relations toward the Southern republics, for it is going to maintain the Monroe doctrine in all of its purity, even if a protectorate has to be declared, and they had as well make up their minds to that fact and govern themselves accordingly. Evil to him who evil reads. Permit us to say that the editor of The Seattle Republican has no desire to pose as "it," but, on the other hand, if anything at all, the very least of all. BUT THEY DID IT. The Seattle Republican publishes a report that "Senator Foster's faction worked like Trojans for the defeat of the Republican ticket last fall," which goes to show that Jeems Hamilton Lewis is not the only spectacular ass in Seattle.—Tacoma New Herald. HAVE BEEN CLIPPED. The Seattle Republican is an excellent publication, and whosoever gets after Brother Cayton catches a Tartar; but there are times and seasons when he put one in mind of the quotation, "I am Sir Oracle, and when Iope my lips let no dog bark." Clip your wings, Bro. Cayton, and tread this lowly earth like the rest of us for a season.—Colton News Letter. FROM A WHISKEY ORGAN.

Shoot your popgun at the quack doctor and the cuckold mill, not the gin mill. Borongo Island, which lies half way between Calcutta and Rangoon, is said to be a paradise for snakes.

BETWEEN MINNEAPOLIS ST. PAUL and CHICAGO This assures passengers from the west making connections. The 20th Century train, "the finest in the world," leaves St. Paul every day in the year at 8.10 p. m. Last week, while the Pie-maker was attending the State Press Association, which wa held in Tacoma, he met Editor J. G. Frankland, of the Walla Walla Record, who predicted that it would not be very many months before J. Howard Watson, the prince of political liars of the Northwest, would lose his position as editor of Levi Ankeny's Walla Walla Union. Editor Frankland was convinced of that fact because, said he, "Watson is the most ungrateful whelp that was ever given a brief breath of authority." The men who were responsible for him getting the place that he was then holding, he had endeavored to do everything in his power to injure in a political way as editor of the Union, and even in a business way, and I am thoroughly convinced that D. E. Crocker and Mr. Ankeny's friends in general will make it so hot for Mr. Watson that he will go out of Walla Walla on short notice before many moons." The Pie-maker believing that the above was perhaps a personal grievance on the part of Editor Frankland, did not take much stock in it and passed it off without giving it any great amount of political significance. The prophesy made by Editor Frankland was not long in culminating into just what he predicted it would do, the complete dethronement of J. Howard Watson as editor of the Walla Walla Union, and as political adviser of would be Senator Anekny. Last Sunday morning's Post-Intelligence announced the fact that J. Howard had actually been dethroned, and rather than suffer removal from office he resigned and is now headed for Seattle or Tacoma, where he hopes to get work on one of the daily papers. As a political boss, Watson is the most tyranal and unserupulous renegade that ever conducted a newspaper. And any newspaper that employs the man and allows him one inch in the way of the management of the paper, he will take every advantage of the situation that he possibly can, and will do the paper more harm in a month's time than it can undo in two years time. However, it is due J. Howard Watson in this connection to say that as a common reporter, he is a most excellent newspaper writer, and when assigned to a certain duty to perform as a reporter he will do so to the queen's taste. The dethronement of J. Howard Watson is the final overthrow of the Oregon nightmare that came to this state in 1896, when George Turner imported his hired men from the Oregonian—the Piper brothers—to assume control of the Post-Intelligence. For months they ran things in this state with a high hand and what they actually lacked of running the Republican party into the very jaws of hell itself, was very little. But it is a long road that has no trum and first George and Teddy Piper were dethroned in Seattle, and then Howard Watson followed, by losing his place in Walla Walla, and now the trio is completely at sea without sail or rudder. The putrid political carcasses of that gang, who was bent on rule or ruin in this state, can now be assigned to the waters of the sea of Unresurrection without grief or pain from anyone. The Pie-maker notes that Harold Preston is still being discussed as a senatorial possibility and that at no very distant day he will announce himself as a candidate for the United States Senate in 1903. He purposes to pose as a King county candidate and hopes, yea, really believes, that he will take a united delegation to Olympia from this county in his support. While the Pie-maker has no objections to a good King county man being elected to the United States Senate, and verily believes that such should be the case, yet he is of the opinion that Harold Prseton will come no nearer getting a King county delegation, even though every member of the legislature from King county is a Republician, than would some man who has never lived in the state of Washington. The Pie-maker does not believe that Harold Preston can ever at any time get five votes from King county to support him in his senatorial ambitions, and that, too, with no other candidate for the United States Senate posing as a King county candidate but himself. This is not said from a spirit of jealousy or animosity, but it is an actual fact, and no one knows that fact better than Mr. Preston. The Pie-maker is well aware of the fact that Mr. Preston is popular among a certain political few in this city, who roll in luxury, but when it comes to the masses he is the most unpopular political character that has ever aspired to an official position in King county, and that is saying a good deal. If the Republican politicians of King county were under a boss, and this and that man who were sent to the legislature would have to do as they were directed by such political boss, and should such political boss choose to select Mr. Preston as King county's candidate, he would stand a good show of getting to the United States Senate, but there is no political boss in this county, and the various districts will elect men to go to the next legislature that please their own political preferment, and in that instance none of them will ever support Mr. Preston under any consideration whatever. These are facts that politicians had just as well look squarely in the face and talk about as to beat about the bush. It is no longer possible to hoodwink men into supporting this and that man because he stands well with a select few, for political serviles are things of the past. For anyone to succeed in politics he has to stand well with the people, and that is especially applicable to King county at present. Mr. Preston might get three votes from King county for United States Senator, and those are only problematical, and when he would get these he would have reached the zenith of his strength. Therefore, for the benefit of the state papers that continue to talk Harold Preston as a King county candidate for the United States Senate, the Pie-maker wishes to inform them that he will not be a King county candidate for the United States Senate, at least not at the solicitation of King county Republicans, and King county will not support him, though he decides to enter the race all by his one. A new road law will soon be voted upon by the citizens of this state. In speaking of the matter one day this week to an old farmer, who is rather influential in his immediate neighborhood, he was led to remark: "I do not see why the city folk want to take the county road business out of the hands of the farmers and put it into the hands of the county commissioners, who, for the most part, have no interest whatever in the matter other than to use it as a political machine to help themselves and their friends into office. Each community and district should have the say as to how the roads in that community should be cared for. The city folk have no interest in it and should let the country folk regulate their own affairs." The Tacoma New Herald, that has a "Texas Jack" doing its political work, takes to heart the charge of The Seattle Republican to the effect that the friends of Senator Foster knifed the Republican ticket last fall. Perhaps the Republicans who knifed the Republican ticket last fall are not friends of Senator Foster, but are his enemies, however, they are the very men who have supported Senator Foster's faction in the Republican party through thick and thin. No one who watched the campaign last fall with any degree of interest but believes that "honest" Tom Humes and his followers not only in this county, but all over the state, voted against the Republican ticket last fall; no one but believes that Ben Grosseup and his followers fought the election of J. M. Frink last fall; in short, everybody who knew anything about politics was convinced of the fact that every man that did work in the interest of Senator Foster clandestinely fought the Republican party with all their hearts and souls, and as a result Mr. Frink was defeated. Now these may not be friends of Senator Foster, but they are awfully near it. The Piemaker has not charged now or at any time, either directly or by innuendo, that Senator Foster personally fought the Republican ticket last fall, but it does charge that his friends did so, which does not show up well for the senator himself, though he may have done everything in his power to pull the ticket through. The sins of omission are often just as grave as the sins of commission. The selection of the public building site at the southeast corner of Union and Third is another evidence how some fools can just stumble on to a fortune, while it actually hides from others more worthy. One of the owners of the property made $10,00 by the deal in less than a year's time—"a fool for luck." The Southern lumber mills for the year 1880 had an output of lumber valued at $38,116,000. Ten years from that time they had advanced to $105,575,819. For the present year it is estimated that the output will be $350,000,000. HINERY MANUFACTURED Hoisting and Logging Engines a Specialty...

Mrs. Joseph Bennett has been committed to the insane asylum. Her malady is not of a serious nature, but in order that she could have perfect quiet her physicians thought best to have her sent to the asylum. It would not be out of place for the colored population of this city and community to make some efforts toward aiding in the furnishing of free beds for the Lippy Hospital, as there are quite a few persons of color that need free hospital attention. Edward Baker, the unfortunate young colored man who has gotten himself into a peck of trouble by associating with bad company, has been taken to the state prison. The officials entertain grave doubts as to Baker's participation in the Leary saloon hold-up, but the circumstances were against him in the trial. Some efforts should be made to get the young man a pardon. The steward board of the A. M.

AMUSEMENTS AT THE THIRD AVELE "The City of New York" at the Third Avenue theater this week has proven to be an excellent melodrama, well played and beautifully mounted. The scenery alone is worth the price of admission. The play is enthusiastically funny, and everybody should see it. Next week, commencing Sunday, the scene will change from the metropolis of the United State to the island of Cuba, and from there to the Philippine islands, when the latest nautical dramatic success, "Dewey, the Hero of Manila," will be seen for the first time. The play deals with startling events previous to the Spanish-American war in Cuba, and ends with the capture of the city of Manila by Admiral Dewey and the American fleet. People who like lively and interesting amusements will find enough in this play to gratify their hearts' wish. The attractions booked for the Third Avenue theater this season are better than ever in its history. "UNCLE TOM'S CABIN." Sutton's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" company opens at the Grand Sunday evening for a single performance There are several noteworthy stage settings, representing cotton picking scenes, Eliza crossing the ice, etc There will be some buck and wing dancing that will be a great novelty Every scene of the great paly will be given, and from a scenic standpoint the play will be one unusual splendor.
