The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Historical Societies VOL. VIII., NO. 16 PASSING EVENTS Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. THE WEEKLY REVIEW GROWTH OF LIBRARIES. Public libraries are rapidly on the increase in this country and all because the reading public is taking such a keen interest in patronizing them. The appreciation shown by the general public of this age for visiting public libraries is quite marked in contrast to what it was a decade ago, and a most marvelous one from what it was, say fifty years ago. There are at present 5,383 libraries in this country, containing more than 1,000 volumes each; 3,878 containing between 300 and 1,000 volumes each, and several thousand containing less than 300 volumes each. There are at present 46,610, 509 volumes in all the libraries of this country, which is an increase over what it was five years ago of 12, 014,251. Speaking about the public libraries calls to mind some of the princely sums that have been donated to this educational cause by Andrew Carnegie. In 1889 Mr. Carnegie gave $3,503,500 to thirty-four libraries. In 1900 he gave $645,000 to nineteen libraries. During the present year he has given $12,148, 500 to eighty-six libraries, and all making a grand total of $16,297,000 given to 139 libraries since he has begun donating to the public libraries. WOMEN AS BENEFACTORS As a general thing women are said to be far more penurious, when it comes to making either charitable philanthropic or public donations, than men. While, perhaps, this is applicable to a majority of the women, yet women as public benefactors have made quite a reputation in this country of late years. According to the records of the past year, out of $63,000,000 given by wealthy Americans to art, education, religion and charity, fully $10,000,000. of this amount was given by women. The wealth of the nation is generally in the hands of the men, hence it is impossible for women to give as lavishly as do the men, but in proportion to the amount they handle, it will be readily seen that they give more extensively than do the men. Some of the gifts recently made by wealthy American women for beneficiary causes may be gleaned from the following: Mrs. Joseph L. Newcomb, of New York, to Tulane university, $3,000,000; Mrs. P. D. Armour, of Chicago, to Armour institute, $1,250,000; Mrs. Edna J. McPherson, of Newark, N. J., to Yale college, $750,000; Mrs. H. R. Schley and Mrs. R. P. Flower, of New York, jointly, to the town of Watertown, N.Y., $500,000; Miss Helen Gould, of New York, to various charities, $400,000; Mrs. Vaughn Marquis, of Ashland, Wis., to religion, $300,000; Mrs. J. F. Ryan, of New York, to religion, $250,000; Mrs. Eugene Kelly, of Buffalo, to religion, $250,000; Mrs. Emmons Blaine and Mrs. Cyrus McCormick, to the University of Chicago, $250,000; Mrs. A. S. Greenspan, of Topeka, Kan., to various charities, $200,000; Mrs. Louise Sebor, of Middletown, Conn., to religion, $175,000; Mrs. Margaret J. Bennett of Baltimore, to various charities, $150,000; Mrs. Mary Shannon, of Newton, Mass., to various colleges, $123,500; Mrs. G. S. Burbank, of Fitchburg, Mass., to various charities, $120,000 and Mrs. F. H. Alms, of Cincinnati, to the University of Cincinnati, $100,000. IRELAND AND SCOTLAND. According to the census returns recently taken by the British government the population of Scotland for the past sixty years has been steadily increasing, while during the same time the population of Ireland has been as steadily decreasing. The figure sent out by the census bureau for the two countries are as follows: Year. Population. 1841 8,197,000 1851 6,574,271 1861 5,798,967 1871 5,412,377 1881 5,174,836 1891 4,704,750 1901 4,456,546 In contrast with the above table the following record shows how the population of Scotland has been steadily climbing from decade to decade: Year. Population. 1841 2,620,000 1851 2,888,742 1861 3,062,994 1871 3,360,018 1881 3,735,573 1891 4,025,647 1901 4,471,957 GIGANTIC OCEAN STEAMERS. Great ocean crafts have not been very extensively built since the failure of the Great Eastern, which was floated in 1865, to accomplish what its promoters expected it would do. Recently, however, the Celtic, a monstrous vessel belonging to the White Star line, has been floated and it is now the largest vessel that is sailing the ocean. In length she is 700 feet. Her registered tonnage is 20,880 tons and her speed is seventeen knots per hour. The Celtic is both larger and heavier than the Great Eastern and unlike the Great Eastern she is not unseaworthy, but sails the ocea with perfect case. Her engines consume 260 tons of coal per day and she can furnish accommodations for 2,859 passengers. The steamer next in size to the Celtic at present is the Oceanic, which registers 17,274 tons, and next in size to this is the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, which registers 14,349 tons. It is now predicted by seafaring men that the time will yet come when 5,000 persons can comfortably cross the ocean in one steamer. HE VOTED WRONG. IN a lonely as well as lowly little home near Albuquerque, New Mexico, lives Edwin G. Ross, who was at one time United States senator from Kansas, and who enjoys the distinction, if such a distinction can be enjoyed, of being the man who saved President Andrew Johnson from being impeached. One vote more would have impeached Mr. Johnson and he would have been driven from the White House in public disgrace, a thing which has never been done as yet to any president of the United States. Senator Ross was an enthusiastic Abe Lincoln Republican, and differed most widely from President Johnson in his reconstruction ideas, but when the president was put on trial Ross took no part in the discourse he intended to weigh the evidence, and, if in his opinion, the trial of the president was a political one, and not a judicial one, he would not vote for impeachment. He kept his word, and at the supreme moment he cast his vote with the Democrats and saved Mr. Johnson from being impeached. For this he was hooted and jeered at by the entire Republican party, and in many instances by all patriotic men in the North. From that time on the unforgiving public pointed the finger of scorn at him wherever he went and wherever he appeared, either in public or in private. His term expired as United States senator, and he left Washington city the most despised man that ever filled such an honored position. Returning to Kansas he found his welcome there an iceberg. He found it impossible to engage in any business and be a success at it, for he was pointed out as an even worse traitor to the country than had Andrew Johnson himself proved to be. Tiring of the cold reception that he received wherever he went in his adopted state, Kansas, he cast his lot in the territory of New Mexico and took up again his old trade, a printer, at which he worked for many years, barely keeping the wolf from the door. Subsequently he was appointed governor of the territory by President Cleveland, which term of office he served out, but on retiring therefrom he engaged in the printing business again, and until recently he has followed that trade despite of his age and decrepitness. Finally he sold his plant and bought him a mere hovel for a home in the suburbs of the city of Albuquerque, and now surrounded by a couple of pet dogs, a few chickens and some pigs, he spends the closing hours of his eventful life in absolute loniness. It is said he still seems to see and hear the corn and derision heralded at him by the general public for voting as he did, but he still拿les to the idea that he voted justly and correctly and that Johnson did not deserve being branded as a criminal, as the senate at that time wished to do. Since his departure from Kansas he has been a Democrat in politics, and still continues in that faith, not that he believes in Democracy, but because he was spurned by the Republicans. The lot of the wandering Jew must be nothing in comparison with the lot of this man, which lot he has been forced to live since he cast that fatal vote to sustain the policy of Andrew Johnson. Your sins will surely find you out. The sins of your fathers shall be visited to the third and fourth generations and they will ever abide with you. Death to this man should be warmly welcomed as a relief from his sufferings. BROTHER IN BLACK Masonry, while tha has been represe Matthews and oth for some years. ALASKA'S BIG BEARS. Dr. William Lord Smith, of Boston, has recently returned from the Kadiak islands on the Alaskan coast, where he has been bear hunting for some time. He was successful in capturing two splendid specimens of the Kadiak bear weighing over 600 pounds each, and he claims that though it resembles the Rocky mountain grizzly, it is by no means a species of that tribe. He learned from the natives that the bears there grow to an immense size, some of them attaining 2,000 pounds in weight, but this he was not able to verify, and believes that 1,200 is the largest that has been taken by anyone from there. He claims that the bears are quite numerous there and live by fishing in the various streams, which streams are generally very narrow and quite full of salmon. The streams are so narrow and the salmon are so plentiful that the bears can readily pick them out of the water while standing on the shore. CIVIL SERVICE SUCCESS. According to the Seventh Annual Report of the civil service commission, during the past year 46,763 persons were examined, of which 35,025 passed. Of the number passed, 34,473 were for appointments to the service, of which 9,889 were appointed. This was the largest number ever appointed to the classified service through examination in any single year. The work of the civil service commission of this country is to be commended by all good citizens, and while it has not reached that state of perfection that many of us hope to see it do, it is nevertheless giving much evidence of gradually growing up to that point, when it will be impossible for anyone to work for the government unless they pass a rigid examination for any position they may seek. Political pull frequently gets in its work even at this late day, but it is fast losing its prestige and power and the sooner it is completely gone the better for the entire country. Judge Taft is instituting civil service in the Philippine islands and it will be impossible for any party to dump its worn-out politicians on these islands in the future, as the various positions to be filled in the clerical department will be filled with sion one way or the other, but said persons taken from the eligible lists who have successfully passed the required examinations. PENSIONS PILING UP. It will be news to a great many persons, and it is surmised, even to many of the old soldiers themselves, to learn that this government has paid out on pension accounts $2,763,350,000, of which amount $2,666,904,589 has been paid since the close of the Civil War. There never were so many names upon the pension rolls of this country at present, as the books when made up, July 30, showed a total of 997,735 persons. Of this number 8,655 survivors of the wars prior to 1861, and 13,124 were widows of men who participated in such conflicts. The invalid pension list adds about 739,994, and the widows' roll one-third as many, 249,086. The net gain to the list during the year was 4,206, though decrease by death was 28,153. On June 30, there were still pending examination 403,569 applications, of which 228,534 were claimants for an increase of pensions already on the pension roll. There are 33,532 applications from claimants on account of service in the Spanish war. There were 58,373 applications made during the year. This is, perhaps, the largest pension roll of any nation in the world, and by far the most expensive. CANADA GROWS SLOWLY. The census recently taken of Canada has developed the fact that the Canadian government is increasing in population very slowly. For the past ten years the registered gain in that country has only been 505,644, or 10.46 per cent. More perceptible growth has been seen in Columbia, Manitoba, while in English Canada, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia the population is nearly stationary. The slight increase in population throughout Canada is rather discouraging to those who had hoped to see it become a strong rival to the United States, and it strengthens the long cherished hopes of friends of the United States as well as the citizens in general of this country that the time is not far distant when the Monroe doctrine and the Monroe government will cover not only all Canada, but all of the American continent. BROTHER IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Observing Men. BORROWED THOUGHTS INDUSTRIES GOING SOUTH. A rather peculiar condition of affairs is being brought about by the gigantic labor strikes of this country and a condition that bares closer investigation than the average citizen is inclined to give it. Though the present steel strike has been the most gigantic since the A. R. U. strike in 1893, which practically tied up every railroad in the country, yet upon close examination it will be found that the present strike does not extend to the Southern states. Commenting on this very fact, Frank Leslie's Weekly thinks that the Northern states and financiers are confronting a problem which it behooves them to give more than a passing consideration. It labors under the belief that the cause for there is no strike in the South, lies in the fact that organized labor has opposed fraternizing with the colored man, and though the colored man is not extensively employed in the industrial works of the South, yet he stands ready to take the strikers' place in case he gets an opportunity and organized labor realizing that if its members ever refuse to go to work in the South their places will be filled for all time to come with colored help, that very help it has so stronely opposed from time to time. It will thus be seen that the South, owing to the fact that it has so many colored men in it who are struggling to become industrial workers instead of common laborers, will soon prove a splendid field for operation of machine shops, manufactures, and other industrial works. If organized labor does not take a cue from this it will soon find that it has killed the hen that laid the golden egg, and has placed in its enemies' hands—organized capital—a most powerful weapon, which weapon it will most effectually use to the detriment of organized labor by moving their plants to the laborer instead of taking the laborer to the plants. NEGRO BUSINESS MEN. Commenting upon the report of the Negro Business League which was recently held in the city of Chicago the Atlanta Constitution gloats over the fact that the most of the business men who took an active part in the convention were men from the South. There is no denying this fact and there is no desire to deny it; in fact, it is to be commended rather than jeered at. The only thing that the average Negro in the North has to say on this point, is there should be more than there are. There are more colored folk in the state of Mississippi alone than there are in all of the states north of Mason and Dixon's line, and why should the bulk of the business colored men not come from the South? In many of the Northern states colored men can be found connected with most excellent business concerns, even as owners and managers, when in that immediate community there are not a thousand colored families all told, and perhaps not five in the thousand who patronize this colored industry. Now, if the Southern colored man cannot do business with his own people, then who in heaven's name does he expect to do business with? Both the whites and the blacks down there do business from a racial standpoint, but in the North it is the man who attends to his knitting that is successful, whether such business man be white or black. NEW MASONIC FRATERNITY. A new branch in Masonry has recently been organized in the United States among the colored folk, which is known as the National Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted York Masons. This branch of Masonry was incorporated the 31st day of August last, and the incorporators were Captain W. D. Matthews, John W. Childers, Oliver B. Jones, George W. Pinkard and Robert McFarland. There has been quite a dispute among colored Masons for a good many years as to which faction represented true Masonry. There is also a dispute between white and colored Masons as to whether either one of the factions represented true Masonry, but this, however, has almost been practically settled, as the white Masons now acknowledge that the Prince Hall Masons represent pure Masonry, while the York rite, which has been represented by Captain Matthews and others of this country for some years, is fake Masonry. Whether this be true, or not, The Republican is unable to say, but there is no doubt but that it means war to the knife between the two branches of colored Masonry in this country in the forming of this new organization. HE KILLED ANEGRO. Not many days ago a prominent white man in the state of Alabama was sentenced to life imprisonment for participating in lynching a colored man in that community. This, perhaps, is the first case of its kind in the history of the United States where a white man has been punished in one of the Southern states for taking any part in lynching a Negro, whether he be guilty or innocent. This conviction on the part of the courts of Alabama is deserving of special consideration, from the fact that the constitutional convention is now in session in that state with a view of disfranchising the colored people, both those that cannot, and those that can read and write. In fact, it is the intention of the convention to disfranchise every black man in the state of Alabama, but in the meantime it has taken steps to protect him from being mobbed, lynched and killed. HOW NEGROES ARE DUPED. While the newspapers East and West are discussing a few sporadic cases of lawlessness in the South, in which guilty colored men are victims, the Constitution would direct their attention to other outrages upon the race, more infamous in that they are practiced upon the trusting and confiding, who are duped and led astray. A Georgia detective became possessed of a circular, bearing upon its face such evidences of regularity, that he did not pause to consider its origin. It was issued by what was styled "The International Council of the World," from the chief office in Seattle, state of Washington, a regularly chartered institution. It represented itself as having been organized to suppress lynching and other forms of lawlessness toward colored people; that it had on hand a large sum of money, and was prepared to pay out $500 apiece for the arrest of violators of the peace of the colored people. Quite incidentally it was mentioned that others, desiring to aid in this laudable work, could obtain membership by forwarding certain sums of money to the chief office in Seattle. The detective was at the time engaged in a work along this line, prompted by a reward offered by the state. He redoubled his energy, spent an amount equal to what he would have gotten from the state, and succeeded in sending seven white men to the penitentiary. Then he proceeded to locate the International Council of the World, but without result. Finally the Constitution was called into play, and it is to the result of the investigation thus set on foot in Seattle that we would direct the attention of the press abroad. The dispatch said that the council is an incorporated society of colored people, with a horse doctor named Samuel Burdett for president and a former bootblack for secretary. As to the details of the business, the president vouchsafed the information that the council had "a beautiful ritual * * * which forbids our disclosing any of the details. I will say, however, that we have contributing members who send in periodically dues in the South, the North and the West." Thus the scheme was fully exposed. The further information and over 3,000 letters had been received disclosed how well the dragnet of collecting was working.—Atlanta Constitution. Mr. C. T. Conover, of this city, shows a patriotic spirit that is worthy of universal commendation on the part of the American people in his advocacy of a McKinley Thanksgiving hospital somewhere in the central portion of the United States in honor of the restoration of the president to health, as now seems evident. We quite agree with the promoter, Mr. Conover, that it is a scheme that the rich and the poor, the white and the black, the Jew and the gentile, can all cheerfully contribute to, and we further agree with him that they all will cheerfully and willingly do so as far as they are able. We trust that the proposition will meet favor throughout the entire length and breadth of the United States and that it will assume a definite shape, and that the project will soon be an actuality instead of a theory. REALM OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Quasi Christians. PECULIAR CUSTOMS PILIPIMOS TURNING INFIDELS. From the London Spectator it is learned that the natives of the Philippine islands are rapidly renouncing Catholicism, and it is likewise learned from the same source that the natives are becoming indifferent as to all forms of religion. If this state of affairs does exist it is to be seriously regretted. Such is usually the case when one feels that they have been deceived by any form of religion they at once renounce all forms of it and become infidels instead. There is no doubt but what Catholicism has been a great drawback to the prosperity of the Philippine islands and it has kept the people largely in an ignorant state, and it is no more than could be expected when the natives found out that they had been deceived through the guise of some form of religion, to renounce all forms of religion, on becoming cognizant of the fact that they have been deceived. If Protestantism, therefore, expects to make any headway on these islands it will have to make haste slowly by teaching the natives that Protestantism, like Republicanism, means absolute freedom so long as one stays in the bounds of common sense law. If this course is followed Protestantism will be accepted by those persons even more strongly than they ever accepted Catholicism. PREACHING AND PRACTICING. Recently a socialist pamphlet was sent out, which took for its text, "Proofs from their own Bible and from common sense that all rich men and most clergymen are frauds and imposters, because they profess to believe what they do not practice." In this statement socialism is just as radically wrong as it is in all of its other statements, political and otherwise. Socialism pretends to believe that the fundamental principles of this government are all wrong, that we are trying to reach the goal by going in the wrong direction. The average person of this country, whether he be inclined to religion or not, does not believe that the clergymen preach something that they do not practice. Most clergymen in this country and in all other Christian countries live a devout, straightforward, upright life, and when they do not do so they at once lose all influence in the community in which they live. They cease to draw congregations and are without sympathy from the communicants of their parishoners. To charge that rich men become criminals no sooner than they are aware of the fact that they are, is but the contorted imagination of a criminal brain, such as only socialists can advocate. WANT PERPETUAL PEACE The thirty-fourth annual convention of the Connecticut Peace Union concluded its meetings August 17th and adopted a number of resolutions which run as follows: "That the press league be asked to scatter abroad peace literature." "That peace principals be taught in all the schools, and military drills be eliminated." "That overtures be made for the settlement of the steel strike." "That the United States set a good example by offering to arbitrate all existing troubles between nations." "That an increase in army and navy be disapproved." "That a message be sent to President McKinley asking him to appoint a chief of the state department to investigate the best ways to reach the goal of pacification through arbitration of all internal troubles." "That all previous convictions be reaffirmed." Quite a wholesale lot of resolutions are these and all quite commendable on the part of the peace convention. Let there be peace, and in this it is more than likely that all men, regardless of their color and nationality, will join in one happy strain, until "peace like a river attendenth our way." CHINA WANTS MISSIONARIES It will be news to most of the people of this country to learn from George S. Miner, a missionary who has recently returned from China, that during the late Boxer uprisings in that country fully 30,000 Christian natives died for their religion. This has made such an impression LIBRARY CITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS upon the minds of the Chinese people that he thinks this to be the most opportune time to fill the country up with missionaries, that the gospel might be spread in every quarter and section of that vast empire. Dr. Miner is of the opinion that ordinarily speaking, the Chinaman has no fear of dying, but for them to die for religion is something new to them, and it has made a lasting impression upon the minds of those who still cling to the doctrines of Confucius, which impression has forced them into the belief that the Christian religion is something more than a notion. ITEMS OF INTERETS HIG EDITOR, EATER. Henry Watterson, the great Southern editor, whose home is in Louisville, Ky., is said to be the most ravenous cater of any man in the United States, especially any man of public note. It is said of him that he at one time participated in a banquet where a most excellent repast was served to those present, of which Watterson ate as though he had been starving himself for the occasion. The banquet, however, came to an end at a late hour of the night, and Mr. Watterson at once left for his office to begin his night's work. He had not been in his office long when he complained to his associate, who was also at the banquet, that he was hungry, whereupon they retired to a neighboring restaurant, and the colonel ordered two pounds of cheese, half of an immense bologna sausage, six bottles of beer and different kinds of salads, and devoured every particle thereof. He returned to his office, and it is said that it was on that night that he wrote his "Star Eyed Goddess" editorial, which was copied all over the United States and even out of the United States by most every paper of any circulation. There is no doubt but that this editorial was the most widely copied editorial of any that was ever written by an editor, and copied in more languages than any other that was ever published. Mr. Watterson is classed as one of the nation's most profound editorial writers, and whatever he says is said so clearly and concisely that whether you agree with it or not you are compelled to read it. Holland is the only country in Europe that admits coffee free of duty. According to reports, Ireland annually produces $60,000 worth of honey. At present the city of London is consuming more than 4,00 tons of ice per day. The flax culture in Ireland is decreasing. The decline in acreage was from 229,178 acres in 1870 to 75,000 acres at the present time. Though this is an automobile age, yet eighty-seven carriage horse were sold in New York city the other day for an average of $1,000 cach. Vice President Roosevelt has consented to write a history of the "Rought Riders," for the roster of the New Mexico volunteers in the Spanish war. Potatoes, which have heretofore only been grown under ground, are now being produced like fruit from the stem of the plant and the flavor of such fruit is said to be better than the tuber. Los Angeles shows the most rapid gain in population for the past ten years. The town was settled in 1871 by Spaniards. It gained 350 per cent. in population between 1880 and 1890 and 100 per cent. between 1890 and 1900. A sign in one of the largest libraries in Oxford, England, reads: "Women and dogs not admitted here." This notice, however, is not lived up to at present and is merely allowed to hang in its place to show the change that has taken place. According to geographers, if the sea were emptied of its water, and then all the rivers of the earth were to pour their present floods into the vacant space allowing nothing for evaporation, it would require 40,000 years to fill up the vacuum. The European dog census has been completed and shows the following: France, 2,864,000 dogs; Germany, 2,200,000; Russia, 1,500,000; Turkey, 350,000; France has seventy-five dogs to every 1,000 persons; Ireland, seventy-three; England, thirty-eight; Germany, thirty-one, and Sweden, eleven. BUSINESS DIRECTORY REPUBLICAN READERS America for Americans is a slogan that is much in favor at the present time. Not much transpires in this country now but what there is a Negro in it, even to the preservation of the president's life. There is no denying the fact that the pension department is getting a bit voluminous, and that, too, without considering whether it be meritorious or not. Organized labor is opposing colored help in Australia just as stubbornly as it is opposing colored help in this country, yet organized labor declares it stands for the betterment of those who labor. According to a statistician there are about 6,410,000,000 men in the world and 6,386,666,666 women, thus showing 15,300,000 more men than women. No wonder the men object to the enforcement of the Mormon ritual. Emma Goldman may be telling the truth when she says she knew nothing of the plot to murder the president, but most people of this country believe that Emma is off her trolley and that she is a particeps criminis before as well as after the fact. Bill Gates, of Dawson City fame, recently eloped from Tacoma with a fourteen-year-old girl, making the fourth girl that he has duped within the past four years. If Bill don't reach the gate at this rate before many months it will be quite surprising.

Accurate figures for France and Russia have not been made up as yet, but it is fair to presume that the United States has lead the entire world in the number of babies born to her subjects in 1900. Though the echoes of the cannons that were fired in the war between the United States and Spain have hardly died out, the two nations are exchanging trade relations as though nothing had ever happened. For the year 1900 the exports from this country to Spain were $6,000,000 more than they were in 1899, and greater by far than since the year 1883. Up to the present time our exports to Spain for 1901 have exceeded by $3,500,000 the whole year's exports of 1900, showing very conclusively that Spain does not seem able to do without American goods. It is extremely gratifying to the American people to learn from President McKinley's physicians that there is every reason to believe that he will recover and be himself once more. No wonder all kinds of schemes are being talked of in commemoration of the fact. The American people were never more deeply interested in the welfare of a president than they are of William McKinley, and this is conclusively shown by the interest that has been manifested over his recent misfortune. WANT HIGH LICENSE WANT HIGH LICENSE. The Republican is exceedingly glad to note that the city council of this city has unanimously adopted a resolution submitting the raising of saloon license from $300 to $1,000 a year. The advocacy of this raising of saloon license will be the text of The Republican until its last issue will have appeared prior to the day of voting on the proposition in this city next spring. Seattle is overrun with vile and villainous saloons, and while the $1,000 raise will not wholly remedy the evil, it will nevertheless strike down a whole lot of dens herein, whose only purpose of keeping open doors is to rob the unwary, not only of their money, but of their morals and virtue. Let every good citizen prepare to vote for this increase of license; let every good citizen see that his neigh- Stationery Stylish stationery, fine printing.

It will offer some slight protection at least to the citizens of this community, and we trust that the resolution will be sustained at the polls by a four-fifths majority, and we feel sure that it will, if every good citizen will only do his duty. The woman who does not point the finger of scorn at the man who does not advocate this raise in saloon license, is herself unfit to be at the head of a family. Stevens Post, No. 1, G. A.

Mechanics' Tools Mechanical Implements Throughout the entire realm of the United States brave hearts wept wells of water last Friday, when the news flashed over the wires, "President McKinley has been assassinated." Not only were the citizens of this country shocked on account of this startling announcement, but the citizens of all christendom were thrown into a state of fervid excitement over the assassination of the chief executive of the greatest republic the world has ever seen. To hear of the assassination of the ruler of any country, who has been made such by the popular will of the people, must naturally produce intense excitement, and such would be doubly true of the United States, and especially among her own citizens. About the bulletin boards last Friday great throngs of excited men, women and children collected to learn the very latest news concerning their beloved president; to learn if he was yet dead; and if not, to learn if there was a single ray of hope for his recovery. Nothing save the awful announcement of an impending war could have brought forth such an excited throng of humanity as the announcement that the chief executive had been assassinated, and that, too, without cause. Who was the man to assassinate one so much beloved by the great mass of citizens of this country? What motive could have prompted him to do this? Has the miscreant been caught, and if caught has he been tortured to death by the excited citizens? If not, why not? These were all questions that passed from mouth to mouth as those American citizens discussed the situation between the times that the different bulletins were being posted, as to every momentary condition of the president, and the whereabouts of the awful criminal that committed the deed. It was soon learned that one Leon Czolgosz, a Polish anarchist, had wilfully, deliberately and maliciously twice shot the president while shaking hands with him at the public reception at the Pan-American exposition. While holding the president's right hand he shot him with his left hand, and then all but escaped in the excitement that followed. The announcement that the would be assassin was a foreigner and an anarchist, did not serve to pacify the excited hoards of humanity to any great extent. It rather added fuel to the flames, and the anti-foreign feeling among all the Americans so assembled was very pronounced—so pronounced that it would have been exceedingly dangerous for any man of foreign blood to have made the fact known at that particular moment. Under the teachings and misrepresentations of the anarchistic leaders, such as the notorious Emma Goldman, whose whereabouts the detectives were trying to locate, with the view of connecting her with the plot of assassinating the president, these anarchists have learned to gloat over the assassination of the chief rulers of lands, and they commit their dastardly deeds without fear or remorse of what the consequences may be to them as punishment for their crimes. Three times in the history of this country have the chief executives been shot down by foreign anarchists, and the patience of the American people is almost exhausted, and an effort will be made from now on to wipe out every trace of anarchism wherever it is found in any spot or community of the United States. Three times within the average lifetime of the American citizen, thirty-five years, has this nation been shrouded in grief over the assassination of the chief executive of the country. It is a most remarkable coincidence that each time a president has been slain, it has been done by a man who voted and affiliated with the Democratic party. Yea, it might be said that each time a president has been slain it has been at the hands of a foreigner. Though John Wilkes Booth was a Southerner by birth, he was at that time so completely alienated from the United States that he might be rightly classed a foreigner. Guiteau, who shot President Garfield, was likewise an anarchistic foreigner. It now transpires that President McKinley's slayer is also an ignorant foreigner, who is unable even to read or write the English language. All of these men are unalterably opposed to the Republican party and have voted on all occasions for the Democratic nominees, either directly or indirectly. Talk about disfranchising voters on account of being too ignorant to cast an intelligent ballot, but it was nev- Splendid Hardware Winter Stoves er more deserving than in the case of these anarchists and foreign devils who infest our country from shore to shore and from the lakes to the gulf. Never before did one feel so much like putting into execution the edict used by the Chineses Boxers, "exterminate the foreign devils," than at this particular time. It may be locking the gates after the horse has been stolen, but congress should close the gates of this country for the next fifty years to come against foreign immigration, regardless of the country from whence such immigration may come. Despite the fact that the attempted assassination of President McKinley is the third president that has been shot down, there are no laws on the statute books of the United States whereby such criminal may be punished commensurate to the crime committed. In other words, the United States as a country cannot punish this wretch Czolgosz, and it can only depend on the courts of the state of New York to punish the the man, and should the president live, a term of ten years in the state penitentiary would be the extreme limit of his punishment, and perhaps some Democratic governor might pardon him before he had half served out the time imposed upon him by the trial judge. It is the duty of the coming congress to take up this matter as soon as it has assembled and pass laws making it treason in the first degree for any man to attempt the life of the president or any member of his cabinet. If it be found that the constitution of our country is so constructed to make that impossible, then it is the duty of congress to submit a constitutional amendment to be ratified by the various states of this government to that effect. An amendment should likewise be submitted to the various states of this government for their respective ratification making anarchism, as it is commonly taught by anarchists in many of the Eastern states, a treasonable crime. Such persons as Emma Goldman and those of her ilk and stripe should be banished from our country or suffer the pain and penalty of death if they remain herein. A stitch in time always saves nine, and if the United States does not wish to undergo the same experience as has Spain, France, Russia, Germany and other European countries with anarchism, then she had better take up this matter at once and treat it from a criminal standpoint. The hordes of howling hellians who have congregated in New Jersey where they disseminate their damnable doctrines against the peace and dignity of this country should be broken up, root and branch, not only broken up, but they should be driven from the shores of our country. One of the bravest men that ever shouldered a musket in defense of his country and for the freedom of an oppressed race was William McKinley, Jr., of Ohio, who made a reputation in the great Civil war that eventually landed him in the White House, and which made him more friends among the emancipated slaves and their children than any other public character since the death of Lincoln, was saved from almost instant death by a member of the self same race, for whose freedom he bared his breast to the enemy's bullet, for as assassin Czolgosz was in the act of shooting the president a third time, one Parker, a gigantic Negro, struck him a fearful blow, which knocked him to the ground, and before he had time to again shoot he was overcome by Parker and the crowd. It was purely from a patriotic motive that prompted Parker to protect the president, but in doing so he reuterned the president and the country at large some slight reward for the multiplied thousands of men who gave up their lives on the battlefield for the freedom of the Negro of this country. Already the government officials have sent out presons to inquire after Parker, and to make some provision for him and his family for all time to come. Whether the man will prove equal to the emergency, so far as receiving official recognition, remains to be seen, but there is no doubt but that he will be amply provided for in some way by the patriotic citizens of this country. Czolgosz denies having any accomplice in the perpetration of his nefarious deed, but the fact that have subsequently leaked out do not verify his statement. It begins to look as though he not only had an accomplice, but it was understood by every anarchist association that this man was to assassinate the president.

The entire detective system of the country at present is on the lookout for evidence tending to incriminate other anarchists in this gigantic plot, and it would not be surprising if it should develop that the scheme to assassinate the president was known to every anarchist in this entire country. If this proves to be true, and there seems to be no doubt of it at present, it is the duty of the officers of the law to hunt every one of them down and confine them in prison cells to the full extent of the law. It is rather remarkable that the men who have proven to be the greatest men that ever occupied the presidential chair have been the ones selected by this murderous association to be killed. Amid all the presidents of the United States, one never faced more trying difficulties than did President Lincoln, and he was shot down by a wretch no less anarchistic in his belief than Gitean, who shot President Garfield, nor Czolgosz, who shot President McKinley. The country probably was never in a worse condition, both financially and otherwise, than it was when William McKinley was inaugurated president in 1897. From the throes of financial ruin he extracted it, and in lieu of such condition he brought about peace and prosperity in every nook and corner of this broad land of ours. He waged a successful war against one of the European nations, crushed it out of existence, especially on the Western hemisphere; put down the insurrection in the Philippine islands, and just as the country was emerging from all of these trying ordeals and a peaceful day dawned upon it, he was shot down and now lies suspended between life and death. Bulletins from Buffalo daily report that there is hope for the recovery of the president, and this is the most gratifying news that has been sent out since the awful catastrophe was first reported. Throughout the entire breadth of the land the churches of all denmoinations have held prayer service, beseeching Him who doeth all things right, to spare the life of the president; to restore him to health and happiness again, and to save the country from the awful ordeal that might come over Nuts THE SEATTLE: REPUBLICAN it should the president die at this time. Leading men of the nation have assembled at Buffalo and discussed the president's condition with bated breath, and but one idea prevailled and that was to the effect that the life of the president would be spared and he be restored to health. His physicians are hopeful and are now sending out bulletins that the danger line has been passed and that unless some unexpected complication sets in there is no doubt but that he will recover and be able to again take up his duties as executive ruler of this country. But a few months ago Mrs. McKinley, the president's wife, apparently lay on her death bed in San Francisco, and for the president's sake and for the noble woman that she is, the nation was greatly interested in her recovery. During her long illness at that point, the president never left her side, and though she has been an invalid for many years, Mr. McKinley has been as faithful and as tender with her as human hands could be. It was thought that the announcement that he had been shot would prove fatal to her, but she bore up bravely under the circumstances and has been equally tender since he has been shot, in nursing him. OUR CRIMINAL RECORD The English language is lacking for words adequate to condemn the attempted assassination of the president of the United States by a crazy Polish anarchist. Booth may have had some excuse for shooting President Lincoln, Guiteau feigned an excuse for shooting President Garfield, but no excuse of any kind, class or nature has been offered by the miserable wretch Czolgosz for shooting President McKinley, and the only explanation that anyone can offer is the wanton deprivacy of the association which prompted him to take the step he has taken. From one degree of murder and barbarity to another this country seems to be drifting into. A carefully compiled report shows that over 3,000 lynchings have occurred in America during the past twenty years, and the majority of such victims have been Negroes. The country that will so far forget its duty to maintain law and order among its citizens and will sit idly by and permit those of her citizens accused of crime to be lynched by the thousand as this re Washington Match Company CAPITAL STOCK $1,200,000 240,000 Shares, Par Value, $5.00 Stock Fully Paid and Non-Assessable ORGANIZED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON 45 Per Cent.-108,000 Shares Placed in the Treasury for Development Purposes OFFICERS Board of Trustees and Incorporators JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS, President, Seattle, Washington THOMAS M.

Minneapolis Agent, BY-LAWS PROVIDE OUR MATCH MACHINE port truthfully shows, it is but sowing the wind and it cannot but expect to reap a whirlwind. The anarchists note the ease with which men escape punishment in this country for burning men at the stake, lynching and shooting men in lump lots, and it is but natural that they flock hither to consummate their deadly plots to overthrow governments by the murdering of their chief rulers. It is very generally reported, and just as generally believed, that the nest of anarchists found in New Jersey and New York concoct plans for the murder of not only the chief rulers of the United States, but the chief rulers of all lands and countries. The seat of anarchism seems to have been transferred from Spain and Italy to the United States, and all because the United States fosters outrages of the most fragrant kind to be committed on defenseless citizens, and the persons committing such outrages are permitted to go scot free. Unless the authorities of this country wake up to the gravity of the situation that now confronts them, the time is not far distant when the United States will be branded as a hotbed for murderers, anarchists and lawbreakers. No country can maintain a status of peace and dignity that will permit 3,000 of its citizens to be unlawfully lynched and burned at the stake by angry mobs and law breakersbreakers in a score of years. During the present year the lynching record has surpassed that of any in the history of lynchdom, and not a hand has been raised to prevent it nor has one condemnatory sentence been sent out by the authorities at Washington, D. C., against the criminal record that is piling up against the Christian civilization of this country. The bloody record made by the Indians against the early white settlers of this country does not surpass the awful record that has been made by the white citizens of this country against the Negroes, and until these wrongs have been righted by the authorities of this country, red-handed murders will continue to be committed and our authorities will be struck down in the midst of their splendor and grandeur. No president will again venture out among his fellow-citizens without being surrounded by bodyguards for fear he be assassinated, as was McKinley, Garfield and Lincoln. The condition of affairs in this country is, to say the least, alarming, and some steps should be taken to rid the country of the red-handed murders, both North and South, that now infest it. --- INCORPORATED THE FACTORY Will be 200x200 feet and four stories, operating five (5) machines fully equipped.

Corsican brigands, Venetian gondoliers and flower girls, peasants and soldiers, dancing girls and strolling musicians, these are all seen in the play, and each and all of them dressed in the rich and picturesque dresses that are appropriate to their respective characters.

Theodore Parks, superintendent of the Clarence Ray Buffalo Hump Gold Mining Company, left for the Hump Wednesday morning. Mr. Parks came to attend a special meeting of the directors. He reports the greatest activity in the history of the mine, very fine ore specimens which he mortared and pumed before the directors, and the results exceeded their expectations, as small deposits of gold could be plainly seen with the naked eye. The company is well pleased with the show, and the workers are working force. One hundred feet of tunneling has been completed, and with the extra force they hope to reach the main ore body within a short time, as Mr. Parks feels confident that he will tap the next 100 feet is reached, a 100 ft even a time much will be in operation some time next spring.
