The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. VIII., NO. 20 Of Men and Things in the Public Mind. AMERICANS NOT WANTED. The announcement of M. Evanoff a Russian engineer, that American miners will not be allowed to operate mines or work for wages in the mines of Siberia, will cause great disappointment among the American miners, who were looking forward to reaping a rich harvest from the gold fields of Siberia. That country is said to be exceedingly rich in placer gold, and the American miner, who is looking for new gold fields to conquer, is exceedingly anxious to get a foothold therein. Siberia has an area of 4,295,000 acres or about one-fourth larger than all Europe, and yet contains but a population of 600,000. It is part of the Russian government and is exceedingly rich in mineral and precious stones. The arable land, which is about one-third of the total area, produces wheat, oats, barley, tobacco and other articles of like nature in abundance, and on the whole, it is a very rich country. nMOLLINEUX COMES AGAIN. Yellow journalism has received a setback in Rollin B. Mollineux, a New York murderer having been granted a new trial. The history of Mollineux is about as follows: On the 28th of December, 1898, Harry Cornish, of the Knickerbocker Clut of New York, administered what he supposed to be bromo saltener to Mrs. Kathrine J. Adams. The medicine, however, proved to be poison and Mrs. Adams died almost instantly. Cornish had received the medicine through the mails, and, owing to the fact that he had had some dispute with Dr. Mollineux, the newspapers at once declared him guilty of sending a bottle of poison through the mails to Cornish, with a view of him taking it and being killed. Innocently, however, he gave Mrs. Adams a dose of the medicine and she died instead of him. February 29, 1899, Mollineux was arrested, but on the 13th of April the indictment was dismissed. Again in May the grand jury refused to indict him, but in July an indictment was returned against him, and he was found guilty February, 1900. Mollineux, after the sentence of death had been pronounced upon him, denounced the newspapers and the prosecuting attorney in the most scathing terms. His attorneys too the case before the court of appeals and as a result a new trial was granted. The case will now have to be all gone over again, and, it is reported, that "yellow journalism" is preparing to do its worst to reconvict him. NEW GRAND ARMY. The men who fought for the preservation of this union of states from 1861 to 1865, have no greater Grand Army of the Republic than have the women of the country who preside over the "little red school houses." It is estimated that something like 300,000 women, the brightest and best the country has produced, are engaged in the profession of teaching young America how to shoot. And it must be said to their credit that no class of teachers is more successful than these women teachers that are to be found alike in the country and city, happily engaged in preparing the minds of the young folk of this great republic for the acceptance of a higher grade of civilization, such as America is rapidly drifting into. From Maine to Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and even to the isles of the sea the women teachers are first and foremost in disseminating religion, education, science and civilization among the rising sons and daughters of Uncle Sam's domain. ALL AMERICA UNITED: Whether it be true that the trial of Charles J. Guiteau was prolonged for weeks with a view of making political capital out of it or not is a matter of public opinion, but the man who shot President McKinley was put on trial and in two days thereafter he had been found guilty and sentenced to be electrocuted one month thereafter. The speedy trial of Leon Czolgosz shows the united condition of the country at present. No political party could have been profiled by prolonging his trial, as all parties were equally pronounced as to his guilt and his punishment. America for Americans was never before so prominent as when the slayer of President McKinley was put on trial; and it will continue so yea, even growing stronger than it is at the present time. MeCLELLAN AND SCHLEY Has American history been repeated in Admiral Schley. In Admiral Schley guilty of the same thing that the world both believed and believes Gen. McClellan guilty of—both cowardice and treason! No one hardly believes Admiral Schley is tained in a single instance with treason, but since the court of inquiry has been holding sessions from the evidence brought out as to Admiral Schley's movements at the Santiago naval battle, there seems to be no doubt but that he was sadly lacking in bravery when a battle was actually on between the two naval fleets. The friends of Admiral Schley must feel sadly disappointed over the evidence that has been brought out, and they must likewise feel that their ideal proved himself anything but a gallant officer in the heat of battle. It is evident from the testimony brought out by the court of testimony that no other officer in either the navy or the army of this country, save and except Gen. McClellan, ever wantonly disobeyed as many orders as did Admiral Schley, and just why he was not court martialed after the battle at Santiago is the question. Had he received his just deserts he would have been at once ordered to Washington and at once arraigned before a court of his superiors for openly disobeying orders. Now that he has invited this inquiry as to his actions, it should be the duty of the naval authorities to put him on trial for insubordination and the disobeying of general orders issued by the secretary of the navy. An excellent opportunity is herein afforded the secretary of the navy and the naval board to administer a salutary rebuke to those naval officers who think they know more than the heads of the various departments, by reducing Admiral Schley in rank, if not actually suspending him from duty. SUPPRESSING FREE SPEECH Much is being said throughout the entire country over the action of the Virginia constitutional convention, which unanimously voted favoring a restriction of free speech in that commonwealth. This is nothing new to the state of Virginia, nor nothing new to any of the Southern states. Free speech in that section has been restricted for lo these many years; yea, it might be truthfully said that the restriction of free speech is one of the cornerstones of Southern Democracy. First it was only the black folk whose speech was restricted, now it is the poor folk, regardless of their color, whose speech is being restricted. Through the personal influence of Senator Morgan and others the Alabama state convention not only disfranchised and restricted the free speech of colored folk, but it did the same thing to that class of citizens known in the South as "poor white trash." Thus does the restriction of free speech in the South continue to gain ground, and it will continue to do so until congress lays violent hands on it with "thus far and no further." Something must be done and done at once or two-thirds of the bone and sinew of the South will be legislated out of their civil and political rights, and we will have a government similar to the one which Lincoln said could not exist in the United States, "half free and half slave." When men are refused their civil rights, and these are suppressed by the law and the shotgun, then such persons, whether they be white or black, are absolute slaves. "The poor white trash" of Alabama is in no better condition, politically speaking than the black folk, and, worst of all, these have been arrayed against each other by the leading white citizens, so as to make it impossible for them to ever come together for their mutual benefit. Under this condition of affairs in most of the Southern states one-third of the citizens absolutely rule the other two thirds. VALE GRAND ARMY. An exchange observes that William McKinley will be the last president recruited from the ranks of the veterans of the civil war. This, however, is very doubtful, in view of the fact that every president since the close of the late civil war, with the bare exception of Grover Cleveland, has come from the ranks of the Grand Army, or from the ranks of the veterans of the great civil war. While there may not be at the present time any Grand Army veteran as popular as was Maj. McKinley, yet there are still many of the veterans of the great civil war in the prime of life and sufficiently popular to make a hard fight for the presidency should something transpire that would prevent President Roosevelt from being a candidate in 1904 or 1908. The feeling of the North against the South is still as intense as it ever was, and no one so cements the disseminating elements and factions of the voters of the North as a Grand Army veteran candidate, hence the advisability of the Republican party selecting a Grand Army man as their standard bearer. There is no South, no North, no East and no West at present in this country, especially on such occasions as the assassination of the president; but when it comes to presidents and political issues the lines are as distinctly drawn as they ever were.

Rockefeller, the oil magnate, is pitching quoits. Silk thread fabrics were taken from South Persia and India to Greece as early as 325 B. C. Prof. Hodge, of Clarke university, estimates toads to be worth $19.88 each for the work they perform in destroying cut worms. An ocean cable has been laid connecting every island of the Philippine group with the seat of government at Manila. Farmers in certain parts of Indian territory are much troubled with tortoise, which are very destructive to the melon and canteloupe patches. Medical experts have conclusively proven that persons living in a house where a coinsensitive is sooner or later contract the disease themselves. For the purpose of oil fuel for the street railway companies of San Francisco an oil tank holding 200,-000 gallons has just been built. Artificial wool made from turf fiber is now being turned out at Dusseldorf, Germany. Cloth, bandages, hats, rugs and such articles are made from it. Good gardens during summer are to be found all along the Yukon valley, in which potatoes, cabbage, cauliflower, beets and similar vegetables are raised in abundance. The sheriff of Cumberland county, Me., is a clergyman, and he frequently holds revival meetings on barges and in tents, where he is the chief evangelist. Prof. W. J. McGee, of the Smithsonian Institution, says human bodies do not petrify, the many reports to the contrary notwithstanding. One of the greatest conveniences in traveling through the country of Norway is the vast number of gates one has to open. There are upwards of 10,000 gates in the country across public highways. Aberdeen, Wash., is said to possess the largest saw mill in the world. France is not waging any particular war in South Africa, nevertheless she has ten regiments of soldiers in that country. There is a wine crisis in Portugal, owing to the fact that the store rooms are now overcrowded with old wine and no place left for the storage of this year's crop. There are at present 132,000,000 gallons of old wine in storage. Fall River, Mass., produces more than three-fourths of all the print cloth made in the United States and has one-seventh of all the spindles in the country. Its mills turn out more than 1,500 miles of cotton cloth every working day. The state of Minnesota leads the country in the milling industry. There are over 100,000 barrels of flour turned out daily in Minnesota, and fully 20,000,000 bushels of wheat are used in the Minneapolis mills annually. Out of 119 counties in Kentucky forty-eight of them are "dry," and twenty-one have only one point in the entire county in which liquor is sold. In seventeen others liquor can only be obtained at two points, and thirty-seven out of the entire number are "wet." America leads in the number of women doctors. Elizabeth Black was the first woman to graduate in medicine in 1849. Since that time the number has steadily increased, until at present there are fully 6,000 women physicians in the United States. The railway systems of Belgium are now contemplating the advisability of designating a coach on their trains for women smokers, as one railroad has already been sued by a woman who was ejected from the ladies' coach on account of smoking and the habit is extensively practiced. According to the census there are two farm animals for every man, woman and child in the United States. There are 40,000,000 each of sheep and swine, 45,000,000 cows and cattle and 16,000,000 horses and mules. At a Presbyterian communion service recently held in Washington city, the bread and wine were passed by two admirals, a general, two supreme court justices and a former secretary of state. BROTHER IN BLACK Under Critical Eye of Ob serving Men. A McKINLEY MONUMENT. Strenuous efforts are being made by the colored citizens of many of the cities and communities of this country to raise sufficient money for the purpose of erecting a monument in memory of the late William McKinley, our martyred president. The A. M. E. church, as an organization, has taken the lead in the effort, and it is devising plans whereby it can raise the necessary funds to do so with. Other organizations among the colored folk have taken up the cry, and, if the whole will work with a unanimity of purpose, there is no doubt but that within a short time much progress will have been made toward the McKinley monument fund. WHY NOT DO IT RIGHT? An editor of a colored exchange apologizes to his readers for the shabby appearance of his paper the two previous issues, and gives as an excuse for the same, he was too busy working at a theater to spare the time to properly attend to this public educator. No wonder his paper impresses one as having had a few handfuls of type shot into it, rather than regularly printed in it. Anything not worth properly looking after is not worth looking after at all; and it is an imposition on the public to force such rubbish into its consideration. When colored men learn to make newspaper-dom a business just the same as other business, and just the same as other races do, then they will issue papers that will reflect credit not only upon themselves, but upon the race to which they themselves belong. For a general thing the average newspaper printed and published by colored men is a side issue and used as a grafting proposition, with no eye or intention single to the advancement of their race. Nothing succeeds like success, and nothing is so commendable of any race of people as genuine wholesome success in whatever it undertakes. COLLECTING RACE MATTER. A novel feature of the Charleston exposition will be seen in the putting into operation in the Afro-American department of the exposition a circulating news depot. Samples of all musical compositions of the Negroes of this country, in connection with samples of all journals edited by colored men, are to be placed in a gigantic news depot and exhibited for sale, not so much for the amount they will bring the department, but for the purpose of showing to the world the progress the race has made along this line since the emancipation. Journalists will be asked to send copies of their papers regularly to the news department, where they can be exposed for sale, and, if sold, a proata of the sale price will be returned to the paper. This will enable persons of color visiting the exposition to call in and get his home paper and learn the local news the same as if he was there to receive his regular Saturday's paper. The plan is a capital one, and it is hoped that it will prove a success both financially and otherwise. BUILD BATTLESHIP: A proposition to build a battleship costing $1,250,000 by colored contributions and presenting the same to the United States government is being advocated by Albert S. Lowe, formerly a private in the Tenth cavalry of the regular army. Mr. Lowe proposes to raise the required amount of money by contributions entirely from Negroes who are citizens of the state of Georgia. He proposes to make a personal appeal to the 900,000 of that state, and he believes that they will contribute the required funds to build the battleship as aforesaid. Mr. Lowe's patriotism in this instance is to be admired. His desire for his race to do something to show its appreciation to the government for what the government has done for it is to be commended by every patriotic citizen; but our government is sufficiently able to build all the battleships that it needs, and it would therefore seem more in keeping with good business tactics, if Mr. Lowe would follow in the wake of Booker T. Washington and erect in the state of Georgia a gigantic industrial school, where the girls and boys of his race could learn to work with their heads and hands, one and the same; where they could learn to make themselves useful, whether on the farm or in the factory, whether in the kitchen or in the counting room, whether as menials or as mechanics, instead of building weapons of war. The young folks that are members of Mr. Lowe's race find themselves at a serious disadvantage when they try to compete with skilled labor, and it is very rarely the case that one is found, who, after having spent years in some college or seminary of learning, on leaving the institution have any special fitness for the duties of life save, "I am educated," which is a small potato and a few in the hill for any one to fight the battles of an industrial life with. Build a Booker Washington industrial school and the United States government will appreciate york more than if you built two battleships, Mr. Lowe. A JAPANESE HONORED. The Marquis Ito, a distinguished Japanese statesman who is sojourning in the United States for the present, was royally entertained in Seattle while visiting here a few days ago. A magnificent banquet was tendered him last Friday evening, at which many of Seattle's most distinguished citizens were present. It is rather remarkable to note the willingness of some of the men present, who boast of Southern aristocratic blood in their veins, to do homage to this member of the brown race, classed by the United States census taker as a "colored man," which is the symbol of disgrace in the eyes of all white American citizens. That unusual amount of homage that was being paid to this distinguished Japanese by our white citizens arose out of the fact that he stood in a position to influence his country to extensively trade with the United States, and it was the trade, and by no means the man, that our distinguished citizens were paying homage to. FOOD FOR THOUGHT The Afro-American in this country can learn a salutary lesson from the treatment accorded to this distinguished Japanese and profit greatly therefrom. If the Afro-Americans of this country wish to become factors in this great western civilization they will have to become influential in the business affairs of the world. They will have to possess those things that business men want before royalty and all manner of men will stoop to pay homage to them. But a few years ago the Japanese were branded as too ignorant and superstitious to be admitted into this country for even the purpose of becoming servants, but now the whole scene has been changed, owing to the fact that these people are considered among the most progressive as well as aggressive people in the Orient, and they are being bowed down to by royalty. To get the Japanese trade means something to any nation, hence whenever an opportunity presents itself citizens of civilized countries are doing all in their power to cater to the leading citizens of the Japanese country. The same rule would hold good with the Negro under similar circumstances, and it is here suggested that the Afro-Americans of this country make the Japanese people an example after which they pattern for the purpose of the bettering of their own conditions. HAYTI IS PROSPEROUS Bishop James Theodore Holly, of the Episcopal church of Hayti, is visiting the United States. Speaking for publication concerning his country, he gave it out that Hayti was in equally as prosperous condition as the United States; that the country was peaceable and quiet in every respect and that great preparations were being made by the entire citizenship for the celebration of their centennial in 1904. At that time the little republic will have reached its one hundredth milestone since the slaves broke their masters' chains and proclaimed their freedom to all manner of men on the island, after having first driven their masters from the island. The sea over which they have traveled has been a stormy one, and at times the little republic seemed all but engulfed by the mountain-like billows that surged about it from the sea of internal dissension, but it has weathered the fierce storms and has succeeded in keeping its head above the water until it has reached its one hundredth milestone, and is in a fairly prosperous condition, as well as giving much evidence of being able to take its place among the world's republics, if not quite so large equally as durable. Hayti can prevent further revolutions among the citizens, it will continue to prosper and grow as other republics on the American soil have grown. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 REALM_OF RELIGION Among the World's Christians and Quasi Christians. METHODISTIC UNIFICATION. The ecumenical conference which recently adjourned its third session was attended by 600 delegates from all parts of the world, and was perhaps the most extensive of its kind that has ever been reported. One of the striking features about the conference was the tendency toward Methodistic unification. The opening sermon was preached by Bishop Charley P. Galloway, a distinguished divine of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and he argued fervently for the unification of all Methodist denominations. Much harmony prevailed among the entire delegation. There were twelve distinct Methodist denominations from America and as many more from other parts of the world, representing perhaps 9,000,000 actual Methodist members, and a Methodist population of two or three times that number. It will thus be seen that the Methodist denomination is rapidly verging on to the point of being the strongest religious denomination in the world. DR. PURVES DEAD. One of the ablest divines of the city of New York died the latter part of September in the person of Rev. George T. Purves. Mr. Purves might have been considered only in the prime of life at the time of his death, but he had reached the point where he was considered one of the most profound pulpit orators in the country. He rapidly passed from one degree of importance to another until at the time of his death he had but few equals and still fewer superioriors. He was as able a writer as he was a preacher, and the Presbyterian assembly has lost much in his death. CUBA'S RELIGIOUS PROBLEM. There is no doubt but Cuba has a serious religious problem confronting her at this writing. If the policy of the United States is pursued in Cuba—the complete separation of church and state—the Catholic church will have a claim of $35,000,000 against the property interests of Cuba, but how to get this is the much-mooted question. The attempt to have the Catholic church chosen as the national faith having been overwhelmingly defeated in the constitutional convention, it is very apparent that it will be a difficult matter for the representatives of the Catholic church to collect, not only the sum that they claim, but any part of it. Catholicism is strongly rooted among a large majority of the citizens of Cuba, and the church property question is going to be a troublesome one in the affairs of Cuba for many years to come. CATHOLIC NONSENSE. Speaking about the Catholic church reminds the writer of an edict that has recently been issued by a distinguished Catholic rector to the effect that all Catholic parents sending their children of 10 years and younger to public school absolution would be refused. The same edict went further and said that all Catholics who were married by Protestants would be excommunicated, and likewise all Catholics who were married by a justice of the peace or a notary public, absolution would be refused. While this is direct from the fountainhead of the Catholic church, it is being bitterly opposed by many latter-day Catholics, who still cling to the fundamental teaching of Catholicism yet do not believe in any such intolerance as this, and if it is enforced, it will be the means of causing a great many devout worshippers of the Catholic faith leaving the same, and though they may not connect themselves with any other church, they will not pay homage to the Catholic church. JEWS CAUSE TROUBLE. Free Masonry in Germany is split asunder, and the grand lodge seems unable to settle the difficulty. The cause of the whole trouble arises from the fact that the Prussian grand lodges plant themselves upon a Christian basis. They refuse any one as a member that has not been baptised and that does not believe in some Christian denomination. The Hamburg grand lodge is opposed to this and proclaims it religious intolerance. It might be added in the way of explanation, that the Hamburg lodges are made up largely of Jews, who take no stock in Christian religion, and they will be forced to withdraw from the Masonic fraternity if the Prussian grand lodges win out in this fight. The fight is being watched with acute interest by PRICE FIVE CENTS the Free Masonry of this country, owing to the fact that it has a race problem to deal with also. BIBLE TEACHING. The city council of Cleveland has adopted a new feature in school work for that city. Recently the council unanimously voted to add the Lord's prayer, the Ten Commandments and the Twenty-third Psalm to the regular school cirriculum for study and consideration. This may perhaps place those teachers of an agnostic turn of mind in awkward positions, for persons who do not believe in God nor the teachings of the Ten Commandments, nor anything pertaining to the Bible would not make very much out at teaching it. The question whether the Bible should be admitted to the public schools is one that has agitated the public mind for the past quarter of a century or more and it is still unsettled. Not even strict religiousists take kindly to having the Bible taught in the public schools lest some one drift into teaching denominationalism at the same time, which is a thought quite worthy of consideration. BIBLE NOON CLASS. In the railroad shops of Cleveland, O., and other points in the East the Young Men's Christian Association has been quite successful in establishing Bible classes among the employees for the noon hour. It was considered almost impossible when it was first talked of, but nothing venture nothing made, and the young men made the effort, and, as said above, have been quite successful in it. From ten to twenty minutes are spent by the men reading and discussing the Bible, and this is done without regard to creed or denomination, and, on the whole conducted as are the Young Men's Christian Associations. CHURCH EXPENDITURES. The following figures have been compiled showing the expenditures of the churches of the world for the maintenance of educational, charitable and literary improvements. United States—Maintenance of all churches, $137,563,200; education and literature, $32,728,000; hospitals and orphanages, $28,300,000; improvements and missions, $43,000,000; miscellaneous, $45,466,100. England—Church of England offerings, $57,222,170; church of England revenues, $28,772,785; free church, $25,832,500; Catholic churches, $11,411,282; education and literature, $44,454,682; hospitals and orphanages, $29,121,200; improvements, missions, $18,850,765. Scotland—All religious purposes, $11,051,400. Western and Northern Europe—Roman Catholic, $102,138,200; Protestant, $67,290,400; other Christian purposes, $34,500,000; Russia and Siberia, $51,255,500; Greek church, Patriarch or Constantinople, $5,625,000; Australian federation, $6,900,000; Pacific islands and Madagascar, $425,500. South Africa, $2,500,000; West Indies, $325,000; foreign missions not given before, $2,900,000; constituencies on the mission fields, $701,000; Roman Catholic orders, $21,489,000; Roman Catholic missions, $9,400,000; literature and education not given before, $30,440,000; orphanages not included above, $16,080,000; Sunday schools, lesson papers and libraries, $6,200,500; improvements and repairs, $25,000,000; percentage estimated for nonreporting, $69,800,000; miscellaneous, $2,500,000. BUILD PARKER A PARK. A New York paper is heading an effort to raise sufficient funds to build James B. Parker, the man who prevented Czolgosz from firing a third shot into the body of the president, a palatial residence in Washington City. The movement is purely a New York one, and only citizens of New York are being called upon to contribute to the fund. T. Thomas Fortune, the editor of the New York Age, is the chief promoter of the undertaking, and that being a fact, its success is almost certain. Parker is deserving of all of the good things that are being said about him, as well as all the good things that should be done for him, and The Republican truly hopes that a mansion will be purchased and furnished for him in the United States capital, if for no other reason than to be pointed out as the home of the man who leaped to the rescue of a United States president when he was being fired upon by a red-handed murderous anarchist. In the domain of Uncle Sam there are 3,828 millionaires, or one for every 20,000 citizens. Now, if all that the millionaire owns was distributed among the whole, how long would it be before some one of them would again have the whole? Let the echoes answer. Let the ransome paid for Miss Stone be hot shots instead of gold coin. Seattle has one standing disgrace—her street poles on which corporation wires are strung. When death gets after a human body good and hard science seems to hide her hands. The Kent postoffice muddle seems to scent of a genuine Madison double-dealing deck. Japanese poetry may be just the stuff, but poetic jargon even in English is altogether too much for us. The suppression of "free speech" is no new idea to the South. On the other hand it has been a Southern ideal ever since there was a South. Czolgosz will soon reach a land where fire, instead of anarchism reigns supreme. Well done, good and faithful servant; go down lower. The Jewish problem is still clamoring for settlement in Europe, Jewish wealth to the contrary not-withstanding. Arthur Goebel's constant chasing of ex-Gov. Taylor serves to prevent the public from forgetting that Kentucky is still under the influence of a lot of bloodthirsty hoodlums. "Why not a Southern man for Roosevelt's cabinet?" inquires a Southern journal. For the same reason that there will not be a Filipino for his cabinet. From the editorial appearance of the White River Journal, the familiar stream from whence it gets its name must flow with milk and cider instead of wit and water. We are of the opinion that Mr. Harold Preston will find it an uphill business to break into the United States senate by the music of a Democratic organ. If it be true that Emma Goldman is secretly haranguing anarchists meetings, she is bidding for a dose of public violence that will not be pleasant by any means for her to take. Any Republican who will give a Democrat a position that could be filled equally well by a Republican is not deserving Republican support, and that, too, regardless of the conditions which the place was given. An exchange says the campaign in Kentucky is now on, which must be an undeniable fact, as another feud broke out at a camp meeting one day this week and half a dozen or more persons were killed. Had Officer-Leighton not have assaulted George Dickinson and his cousins they would not have assaulted him. It looks like a case of absolute self-defense on the part of the boys. Civil Service reform ought to be nearer its golden era with Teddy Roosevelt in the presidential chair, as it has been his life hobby, and why should it not flourish during his own administration. W. W. Robertson, a measley mugwump editor at North Yakima, claims that highwaymen relieved him of $7; that's a whopper that Robertson himself published with apologies. Blethonibus finds Hearstibus a most excellent yellow journal model, and Blethonibus is making a splendid effort at shaping himself exactly like Hearstibus. Both of them should be burstibus. Moderator Shank will doubtless be pleased to be introduced to Attorney Shank next Monday morning, and a few months later on he may be equally well pleased to be introduced to Mayor Shank. United States senatorial timber was to be found in abundance at the North Yakima fair last week, but according to reports none of it seems to have been the kind that burns well. Any boy found with a pistol in his possession should at once be committed to the reform school, and, if his parents are cognizant of the fact that he has the pistol, they, too, should be heavily fined for criminal carelessness. M. M. Banaster, formerly of the Centralia News, is now "it" on the Vancouver Columbian, S. J. Miller having retired.

The sending of criminals to Siberia has proven an element of strength to the Russian government, as those criminals after being released are now developing the country and many of them accumulating fortunes. Charles L. Denny and R. E. Patterson have announced themselves as candidates for members of the school board to be voted for the next national Republican convention. Both of these gentlemen are first-class business men of this city and will make splendid members for our school board. Mr. Patterson has already served in this capacity for three years and Mr. Denny is one of Seattle's most enterprising real estate operators, and perhaps has more realty interests in Seattle than any other single individual in the A "Friendly Inn" in Lynn, Mass., especially accommodates the poor to food and lodging, and during the past twelve months 60,000 meals at 10 cents each and 5,000 beds at 14 cents per night were served to poor persons. The prospects are by no means poor ones. Alaska has ten times over repaid this government for its purchase price, but the purchasing of it was as bitterly opposed by the Democrats at that time as is the United States absorption of the Philippines at present. Democrats seem to be dead ducks anyway. A reader of The Republican writes to inform the editor that he erred in Dan Webster's alma mater, it being Dartmouth instead of Yale. Thanks. We acknowledge the corn. The woman suffrage question was ably discussed Wednesday evening at the literary club. Mr. J. E. Hawkins and Rev. M. Scott and others represented the affirmative, while Mr. Lawrence Sledge and Louis Chase, both of Tacoma, stood for the negative. The entire program proved to be one of rare interest and was highly enjoyed by all present. The program mapped out for next Wednesday evening promises to be equally as interesting as the past week's. For withholding premium money paid on insurance policies Claude H. Kelley has been sued by an insurance company. If The Republican is not mistaken, this is the same Claude H. Kelley that has offices in the Washington block, who is loaning money at a 15 per cent. per month rate, if so, then he is liable to do most any old thing. Any person guilty of loaning money at so exorbitant a rate of interest as quoted above is so constitutionally constructed as to resort to any underhanded thing in order to get money for his own coffers. The present city treasurer, Mr. S. F. Rathbun, has been repeatedly approached by leading men of the Republican party, soliciting him to stand for the nomination of mayor, but to this he has turned a deaf ear. "I will not have the nomination," said he, "and if my friends have any feeling or respect or regard for me in any shape, form or manner, they will not urge me to accept such a nomination, for they must know that should I do so, it would be suicidal for me. Before I would accept the nomination for mayor I would leave the city, and would not qualify if I was elected." The accidental killing by the discharge of a revolver of young Shields on the corner of Third avenue and Madison street by one of his playmates was a very sad affair, and while it was a very severe lesson to the parents and friends of both of the children, yet it is hoped it will serve as an example to other parents to see to it that their children do not handle firearms in any shape or manner. There is absolutely no need of firearms about the homes of persons living here, the oversupply of hold-ups and thugs in the city to the contrary notwithstanding. For if the police officers will do their duty they will protect everybody as well as they could protect themselves with revolvers, because the burglar is always suspecting trouble, and if there is any shooting done, he is going to have a finger in the pie. --- LOCAL Republican want to their homes in- the office? they want their d its contents. ons read this Paper week. g Medium Republican d Avenue Charles L. Denny and R. E. Patterson have announced themselves as candidates for members of the school board to be voted for the first Saturday in November. Both of these gentlemen are first-class business men of this city and will make splendid members for our school board. Mr. Patterson has already served in this capacity for three years and Mr. Denny is one of Seattle's most enterprising real estate operators, and perhaps has more realty interests in Seattle than any other single individual in the city, and he is classed by the leading business men of Seattle as one of the shrewdest and most conservative business men in the entire Northwest. If any man would make an ideal member for the school board that man is Charley Denny, who has permitted his name to be used in that connection for the coming election, and it is truly hoped that there will not be a dissenting vote against him on the election day.

Godwin could do no worse than has Humes, and it is barely possible that he would prof- it by Humes’ blunders and give the city a much better administration than has Humes. ‘The change would at least be worth a trial, Se ee re en eee re ghar er eer eee tee hee eee Seca eae eS .

He now re peats the warning, and he believe that, if Senator Preston were not deaf to the political criticisms that are daily being made adverse to his candidacy for the United States sen. ate, he would not permit his can- didacy to be announced either from the top of the court house or from the bottom of the bay. Whether it Ihe true or not, the voters of King county believe that Mr. Preston's candidacy is in the interest of Levi Ankeny, and for that reason he will not get even as many votes as other- wise he would, regardless of his un- popularity, and that is not saying very much. Should King county decide to make a strike for one of the three congressmen to be elected next year she would then have no more than Pierce county has, and that, too, de- spite the faci that she has two to one votes to Pierce county. If Pierce county is entitled to a member. of ‘both the lower and upper houses of congress, King county is likewise entitled to it, and, if after she has secured the nomination of one of the three congressmen, it so transpires that she has a man sufficiently pop- war to run for the United States senatorship, then this paper is in fa- vor of such man taking advantage of the opportunity. It is high time that King county was looking. striet- ly after its own interests and leav- ing the interests of other counties to take care of themselves. It is rather grating on King county to have to pay one-fifth of the taxes of the state and to cast one-fourth of the votes of the entire state, and yet get nothing out of the state patron- age. Speaking of the next mayor of the city and who will stand for the nom- ination at the Republican conven- tion in the spring reminds the Pie- maker of the oft-repeated assertion that Mr. E. L. Blaine is to be a candidate, which is without foundation. He is not a candidate for the mayoralty, but Mr. Blaine does not intend to support any man for mayor, be he a Republican or a Democrat, that gives it out that he will run the city as it has been run under Thomas’ J. Humes, and in ea eet eat ea Ce Tete ee ee ee interest. “As hae been repeated said in these columns, Mayor Hume can do nothing else from a politica standpoint, but make a fight for re clection next spring. If he make the fight and looses, he is a gone gosling, and, if he does no make the fight, he is also a gone gosling, and between the two evil he will accept the one to make the fight, hoping to win out by a scratch, Mr. Humes has lost many politica friends since he made his last fight and where he expects to get any support from in this coming contest is more than the average politician can figure ont. He no longer _ ha: the support of the Pipers, Dick Kin. near, Billy Hmphries, Ellis De- Bruller and a hundred and one other stannch Republican workers, who were Humes men to the core on previons occasions, but who now de- clare that they will not support the man under any circumstances for anything that he may aspire to. Speaking about the mayoralty contest in the city prompted a lead- ing Republican to ask the question a few days ago, “Who would make an accepiable candidate for all fae- tions?” This is rather a hard ques- tion, for those who would make ac- ceptable candidates and harmonize all factions will not accept the nom- ination if unanimously tendered them. It is uiterly impossible to get any business man to consent to be a candidate for this position, for the reason that he knows that in so do- ing he would not only ruin his busi- ness, but likewise his personal stand- ing in the community. ‘The Young Men’s Christian As- sociation has organized a political club, which will be nonpartisan in its workings. ‘That is to say, the young men will look up the records of the various candidates before they will consent to support them, and only good men from their standpoint will be supported. If the young men can hold their workers in line and sppport some one for mayor who will -promiss-to conduct the affairs of the city in a decent manner, they will make their organization quite effee- tive and be of invaluable service to the city. Seattle needs a mayor with a backbone as well as one with a moral stamina—a mayor that will not countenance viee and violence, but will instruct the chief of police to crush such out wherever it is found. And the only way to obtain this is for the better element, re- gardless of their party affiliations, to unite on one man, regardless of his party affiliations, and push him to the front, just ax Seth Lowe is being pushed to the front by all parties that are opposed to the nefarious practices of ‘Tammany Hall in Greater New York. Between the Ledger and the ‘Times the political pot of this state has been kept boiling duirng the week at a furious rate. ‘The Led- ger’s Turner-Ankeny story, and the ‘Times’ Preston-Humes story con- cerning the next senatorial election in 1903 has to some extent furnish- ed food for speculation for the wily politician who is always looking for political sensations. ‘The Pie-maker believed many months ago that Levi Ankeny and George Turner were in political cahoots. It not only be- lieved this, but it repeatedly pub- lished the same, and neither of those gentlemen nor any of their friends have ever denied the allegation. In the opinion of the Pie-maker Mr. Ankeny had a finger in the pie when the Post-Intelligencer was bought by George Turner, and there is no doubt but Mr, Turner and Mr. An- keny thoroughly understood the P.- Is policy, and there is no doubt but that Mr. Turner intended to help Mr. Ankeny land the senatorial plum in 1899 with Democratic votes in case they could have been ef- fectiyely used. ‘The Pie-maker fully believes that Mr. Ankeny and Mr. ‘Turner thoroughly understand each other now, and, if the one cannot be elected the other will, and while the Ledger's story has cused some poli- tical comment, it is no more or less than what has been repeatedly pub- lished in The Republican since the senatorial campaign of 1899. Now comes the Times with Paul Hedrick’s political pipe dream con- cerning the candidacy of Harold Preston. Aceording to this story, Mr. Preston is soon to announce his candidacy with horn and trumpet and big bass drum from the pin: nacle of the court house, in order to Jake if appear that: King county & Cantelopes Those delicious breakfast appetizers that, you like so well.

Van Kuran were found guilty of assaulting Officer Leighton by Judge George and each sentenced to pay $ fine of $50 and cost of court. The case was at once appealed. The evidence produced by the defense tended to show that the officer first assaulted the boys and this was resented by them, which caused all the trouble. In appealing the case the defendants' attorneys think they will have no trouble in having their clients acquitted by a jury. The Republican has no desire to try this or any other case in its columns, but our attention has been frequently called to persons abused in the streets by police officers without any cause or pretext. For an instance, a few days ago Mr. Albert J. Cookingham says he saw a police officer deliberately walk up to a man, who showed signs of intoxication, and after he had given him a shove he used his heavy boot on the man three or four times in rapid succession in a manner decidedly brutal, and without any cause whatever for so doing. Policemen are supposed to arrest all offenders, and if one cannot do so, get two and if two cannot do it, get half a dozen; but they are not supposed to kick men about the street simply because they have blue coats and brass buttons on. If a man is found drunk it is the duty of the policeman to arrest him and not to kick him. As in this case, numerous others are frequently reported to not only the newspapers, but to the police commissioners, but as to the latter they seem to always fall on deaf ears. "Permit me to say that the King county ferry boat is purely an ornamental affair, and is of no more service to the public than if it had never been built. It is run at present in a way that affords no accommodation for persons living on the other side of the lake. It does not leave its Madison moorings until half past 8 o'clock, and therefore does not start the Kirkland passengers for their destination before 9:30, and it is pretty nearly 10:30 o'clock when they reach Seattle. This is so late that the other boats have gathered in all the passengers, and the ferry boat has on an average of not over five or six passengers, while the other boats have from thirty to forty passengers in the morning. If the boat is to be run it should be run so as to accommodate the farmers living on the other side of Lake Washington who desire to get to Seattle during the early morning hours." Mr. John F. Cragwell has returned from a two-months' visit in the East, where he reports as having enjoyed a most pleasant vacation. Mr. Cragwell is one of Seattle's leading tonsorial artists, and, from a financial standpoint, is probably doing better than any other barber in the city. He visited Washington City, points in Virginia, New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and other places during his stay. He says business is good in most of the Eastern points that he visited, but none of them beats Seattle for thrift and enterprise.

HARRIS CONSULTATION FREE CONSULTATION FREE AT THE THEATERS. "Sporting Life," which opened at the Grand last night, will be repeated tonight and twice tomorrow. Third Avenue Theater. The Third Avenue theater will have an attraction next week, commencing Sunday, that is sure to test the capacity of that favorite theater at every performance. "Yon Yonson," the Swedish comedy-drama, and the only one that has more than ordinary dramatic merit, will be the attraction. This time a new star will be seen in the part of the good-natured "Yon." Knute Erickson is KNUTE ERICKSON, as "Yon Yonson." (Third Avenue Theatre.) the only Swedish comedian before the public. Others who have assayed the part have been actors of ability, but Mr. Erickson is a comedian, withal a Scandinavian by parentage, and will give a true life representation of the character. Messrs. Thall & Kennedy have a splendid company producing the play, and one of the banner weeks on the season will surely be the result. Thomas L. Seabrooke. Despite numerous liberal offers that were made to him to remain in New York and appear in comic opera this season, Mr. Seabrooke has elected to establish himself as a legitimate comedian. This has been his ambition for some time, but he Vincent van Gogh THOS. Q. SEABROOKE, in "A Modern Crusoe. has been unable hitherto to find the proper vehicle. When he head "A Modern Crusoe," a comic romantic play by Sydney Rosenfeld, he realized at once that this was just what he had been waiting for and lost no time in negotiating for it. His first appearance here in the central part of this play, that of Drexel Ward, the multi-millionaire, will be made at the Grand next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Herrmann. Leon Herrmann, who has been known as "Herrmann the Great," of Europe and the Orient for years, the same title his uncle Alexander held in this country, will appear in this city next Friday and Saturady at the Grand. The present Herrman is the most remarkable expert in necromancy and legerdemain of that famous family of magicians, "The Herrmanns." He is everywhere proclaimed the master wizard of the present day. Stuart Robson as Bertie the Lamba Stuart Robson's appearance as Bertie the Lamb in "The Henrietta," at the Grand on Sunday and Monday evenings of next week is an announcement of genuine pleasure. No character in modern drama is more congenial or laughter-compelling than Mr. Robson's Bertie the Lamb. The eccentric vagaries of this giddy son of a millionaire, portrayed as only the peculiarities of the Robsonian methods could do, has made of it a character that will always be welcome to amusement lovers.
