Seattle Republican

The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Historiciense Freely POLITICAL POT PIE. POLITICAL POT PIE. VOL. VIII. NO. 37 Governor McBride has appointed Hon. J. W. Arrasmith, of Whitman County, grain inspector, and the Plemaker ventures the assertion that the Governor will not make a more popular appointment so far as the public is concerned during his entire gubernatorial career than this. Mr. Arrasmith is universally liked in the State, and if he decides to accept the position that has sought him instead of him seeking it he will fill it with perfect credit to himself, to his party and to the state in general. 一 "Business is rather dull," said a police court lawyer one day this week, "and I cannot account for it," continued he. If that young attorney had been as well acquainted with the wide-open policy as many of the older attorneys in this city, he would have readily understood why business was dull around police court at present. The present city administration has been conducting a wide-open policy, which has naturally drawn to the city a large number of hobos and desperate characters, who have to be more or less periodically chastised by the strong arm of the law, but notwithstanding that they are chastised, they are expected to vote and support the wide-open administration, which they will do; and when it comes time for the wide-open administration to be indorsed at the polls, then the strong arm of the law does not feel called upon to chastise its unruly children. It is but a few weeks before the election, and for that reason business is dull, because the administration does not intend to have its supporters brought into court and charged with either peace disturbing or with anything else, which the law would administer a punishment for. This, my dear young attorney, is the reason why business is dull at the police court at this season of the year. 一 Not only have the old-line Populists decided to put a straight ticket in the field for the coming municipal election, but they have decided to hold their convention February 15th and have practically decided to nominate Joseph Winship, among the first founders of Populism in this city, for Mayor. The final decision on the part of the Populists to put a straight ticket in the field prompted S. C. Calder head, A. R. Jones, Clark Davis, George F. Cotterill, Harry B. Drees, G. N. Hodgdon, C. J. McFarland and Swan Lewis, all formerly prominent members of the Populist party and members of the Populist City Central Committee, to tender their resignations to the committee and announce their intention to in future affiliate with the Democratic party. Their places were promptly filled and Judge Richard Winsor, who has stood at the helm of the Populist craft in this city for lo, these many years, was again put in charge of its affairs, and he will direct the fight for Mayor at the next election. The actions of the committee has not pleased the Democratic party a little bit, and the Democratic organ has had its usual spasmodic fit because the Pops cannot be whipped into line by its henchmen. 一 First ward, which promised to not do a thing to J. W. Godwin, has been practically shut out from the convention because it will not have enough votes to make even a decent showing in the convention, as G. F. Cotterill did not get votes enough in the First ward in 1900 for a corporal's guard. While the Democratic convention will have in the neighborhood of 270 delegates, the First ward will have but 27 delegates of that number, which will give it no influence or standing on the floor of the convention that the Godwinites need have any fear of. --- The race is not always to the swift, and this seems especially applicable to the corporation council fight that has been going on in this city for the past month or more. Mitchell Gilliam, who quietly announced his candidacy for the position of corporation council, has slowly but surely been working away at it and has convinced a whole lot of people that he would make an ideal official for that position and the Ple-maker would not be surprised to see Mr. Gilliam nominated on the first ballot for the position that he is seeking, the wholesale advertisements of John W. Pratt to the contrary notwithstanding. 1 Up to the present writing there has been no disposition on the part of the respective candidates for the lesser nominations on the Republican ticket to line up in the mayoralty contest, and it is very generally believed that there will be none. Although it was hinted one day this week that Mr. Rathbun was talking of lining up with Tom Humes and that Mr. Pratt would follow suit. If, however, this is done by either of them, that will force John Riplinger to line up with Paul and Mitchell Gilliam or L. B. Steadman to do the same. But the candidates, as said above, for these nominations are hoping that it will be a free for all fight with them, and they not beforced to line up one way or the other in the mayoralty contest. If the Times or any of the opposition papers make any effort to saddle the Paul nomination on the shoulders of John L. Wilson they will do so in face of the fact that the management of Mr. Paul's candidacy is completely in the hands and control of men who can in nowise be termed Wilson men from the fact that they have fought the ambitions of John L. Wilson with a vengeance for the past four years, and have not indicated either by word or action that they did not intend to do in the future as in the past. It is not expected that either Mr. Gule, Mr. Neufeldor or Mr. Kinnear will ever lend John L. Wilson any political assistance, and it is they who have the candidacy of Mr. Paul full in hand at the present time. 一 One of the reasons that Mr. Humes has lost so many staunch supporters in his present fight lies in the fact that he has not been true to the men who fought for him the hardest in the past. Leading Fifth ward politicians who have been for Humes under all circumstances and whenever he was a candidate for anything are now fighting him to the bitter end because he appointed W. L. Meredith chief of police and then deserted him when he needed his support most. No man in the city is more responsible for the misfortune that overtook W. L. Meredith than Thomas Jefferson Humes, and the friends of Meredith are warming up to the situation and will make herculian efforts to see that Mr. Humes is never nominated and elected to another political office in King county. The following is a partial list of the Republican aspirants for office in the various wards of this city, subject to the endorsement and ratification of the next municipal convention: First ward—John W. Pratt, corporation counsel; James Weir, ward councilman. Second ward—Thomas Jefferson Humes, mayor; Alexander Anderson, councilman-at-large; W. H. Vincent, ward councilman; A. Kistler, ward councilman. Third ward—Frank H. Paul, mayor; L. B. Steadman, corporation counsel; Dave W. Bowen, councilman-at-large; H. C. Gill, ward councilman; J. A. Payne, ward councilman. Fourth ward—Mitchell Gilliam, corporation counsel; John Riplinger, city comptroller; J. A. James, ward council climman; A. A. Seagraves, ward council climman; J. A. Kahley, ward councilman. Fifth ward—James Gregg, councilman-at-large; Scott Benjamin, ward councilman; Ellis Morrison, ward councilman. Sixth ward—H. P. Rude, councilman-at-large; W. V. Rinehart, ward councilman; William Voight, ward councilman. Seventh ward—S. F. Rathbun, city comptroller; "dark horse," candidate for corporation counsel; Frank P Mullen, councilman-at-large; Jed. G Blake, ward councilman; J. O. Red wood, ward councilman. Ninth ward—F. M. Lund, ward councilman. The political situation at the pres- ent time would seem to indicate that the First ward will be split between Humes and Paul. The Second ward will be solid for Paul. The Third ward, four-fifths of it for Paul; the Fourth ward divided between Humes and Paul; the Fifth ward divided between Humes and Paul; the Sixth ward for Paul; the Seventh ward for Paul; the Eighth ward for Austen; the ninth ward for Paul. The First ward will go for Fratt for corporation counsel; the Second ward has expressed no choice for this position; the Third ward will be for L. B. Steadman; the Fourth ward for Mitchell Gilliam; the Fifth ward badly divided; the Sixth divided; the Seventh, Mitchell Gilliam; the Eighth divided; the Ninth, Mitchell Gilliam. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7. 1902 For city comptroller the First will be divided; the Second for Riplinger; the Third, Riplinger; the Fourth, Riplinger; the Fifth divided; the Sixth Riplinger; the Seventh, Rathbun; the Eighth divided; the Ninth, Riplinger. For city treasurer there is but one candidate, and it is generally sup posed that he will be unanimously nominated. The Socialist Labor party of this city have named the following municipal ticket for the spring election: Mayor, Walter Walker; comptroller, Chas. E. Regel; corporation counsel, John W. Monette; councilmen-at-large, Frank Crossman and M. J. Kennedy. Councilmen—First ward, W. Ower Martin; Second ward, C. F. Coffman; Third ward, W. H. Walker; Fourth ward, Paul Wagner; Fifth ward, A. Barecliff; Sixth ward, Edmund Prentiss; Seventh ward, C. F. Nellson; Eighth ward, F. G. Godwin; Ninth ward, C. G. Passort. --- Talk the high license proposition over with your neighbor and convince him if possible that it is a splendid proposition for the taxpayers and will work a hardship on no man doing a legitimate business. Suppose it does prove the means of a few dive saloons going out of business, that of itself will be a glorious victory for dedency. Support this amendment without tooting your horn about it, even though the saloons do raise a $10,000 purse to bribe and corrupt voters to vote against it. In creasing interest has been added to the political situation during the past week by the announcement on the part of James Gregg that he will be a candidate for the office of councilman-at-large, subject to the wishes of the Republican convention. Some time ago it was announced that Mr. Gregg, at the solicitation of the Grocers' Association, would strive for this nomination, and now Mr. Gregg comes out with the declaration that he is in the race to stay. That Mr. Gregg will "cut some ice" goes without saying. He has long been prominent in politics and has as many friends as any man in Seattle where he has lived and done business since the fire. Mr. Gregg has a full understanding of the needs of Seattle; he is a property owner and a business man who has been eminently successful. There is not a matter to come before the council but what he would have an intelligent knowledge of, and being a man of force, it can be depended upon that he would be a power in that body. Mr. Gregg is a man of great activity, and while he has never held public office, he has occupied positions of trust in fraternal organizations and has been at all times keenly active and alive. He is a type of the man who has made Seattle great and while it may be that the politicians have not yet acquainted themselves with his popularity and strength, that will be developed before the convention meets. --- If working for a ward from which a councilman is elected counts for anything as to the success of a member of the city council, then Councilman James A. James, of the Fourth ward, is the greatest success of any councilman from a ward standpoint ever elected in the city of Seattle. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that no ward in the city has fared so well at the hands of the city council as the Fourth ward during the time that Mr. James has represented it in the city council. Street improvements, sidewalks and street crossing building, electric lights, and in short, everything that go to the betterment of the general condition and appearance of a ward has been carefully looked after and guarded by Mr. James, even if it has been sometimes done to the detriment of other wards. No one that has noticed the street improvements that have been going on from time to time in the Fourth ward will deny the fact that Mr. James has been exceedingly successfully in inducing the city council to make liberal appropriations for the Fourth ward, which ward has repeatedly elected him to the city council, simply because he has faithfully watched after its interests. It can be also said of Mr. James that he has not only watched after the interests of the Fourth ward since he has been a member of the city council, but he has carefully looked after the interests of the city in general in more ways than could be enumerated, and the business men as well as the property owners of Seattle are highly pleased with the work that he has done from time to time as a member of the council. He may have done some things that were displeasing to some of the voters of the city, but it can be safely said that he has always pleased the property owners, and who in a city are more deeply interested in its welfare than the property owners? If, therefore, Mr. James has pleased them no one else has any great amount of complaint to register against him, for after all, it is the property owners that pay the bills for maintaining this or any other city. Even the Times editorially admits that if Mr. James is nominated by the Republicans it will be useless for a Democrat to be nominated against him, for all parties, the Democrats as well as the Republicans, will vote for Mr. James and practically unanimously elect him. There are always to be found Republicans wanting the same position that the other fellow has, and this may be the means of Mr. James loosening the nomination, and the city council loosing one of its most valuable members. As a member of the finance committee, Mr. James has been the watchdog of the city's funds, and nothing has been paid out without it being carefully scrutinized by him. So careful has he been along this line that even the property owners have had reason to occasionally complain at the small amount allowed by him in going over the accounts. It is now believed by the property owners of the Fourth ward that it will be utterly impossible for any aspiring candidate for the position of councilman from that ward to defeat him for the nomination, and, as said above, if nominated he will carry the ward almost unanimously. The many readers of the Republican will note the "nd." of Dr. Merkel, appearing in another portion of the paper. The doctor has practiced medicine in Seattle for twelve years, during which time he was well known as a rheumatic specialist. As the members o the medical fraternity are opposed to newspaper advertising, Dr. Merkel found himself with a remedy and no way of acquainting the sufferers of that fact, hence he has decided to enter the list of advertising doctors, believing in the motto of "The greatest good to the greatest number." Call on him and be convinced. Consultation tree. The stewardess board of the A. M. E. Church of this city will give a campaign supper at the G. A.

Everybody is cordially invited to be present and partake of an old fashioned dinner prepared and served by the best colored cooks in the city. Rev. Scott of the A. M. E. Church says that the proceeds from the dinner will be applied to the church debt, which he hopes to soon have completely cleaned up. --- Only a few days left for you to get an interest with the most conservative fisheries company, where your money is not thrown away in large flaming advertisements, but is being used discreetly in buying just what is needed for the enhancement of your investment.

Inter-States Fisheries Company, 302, 303 Pacific Block, Seattle, Wash. The Eighth ward has always taken a special pride in nominating and electing Dr. J. E. Crichton as a member of the city council because he has always served them well ever since he was first elected. Dr. Crichton has been five times elected to the city council, and is now a candidate for a sixth election, and up to the present time no one with any following of any consequence has come forward to contend for the nomination against him, which is very conclusive evidence that the citizens of the Crescent Cream Coffee WHOLE CRESENT MAPLE CRESENT CREAM COFFEE Russell-Pastelby Crescent-Wellington Import of 100% HAND CROSS SAFTERS MONOPHONE Strictly High Grade; Used by all Lovers of Really Good Coffee and Recommended by the Leading Chefs.

Let every father and husband do his duty and be on hand at the meeting and stand for High License. Eighth ward, without regard to form er political affiliations, are perfectly Dr. J. E. Crichton. satisfied with Dr. Crichton as their representative in the city council. Dr. Crichton has always voted right on all great public questions that have risen in this city. He has been with the people, without regard to their wealth or political influences; in short, he has so shaped his course in the city council as to zealously guard the people's interests, one and all, without regard to political affiliations or corporative influences. He has been an advocate of all the reforms that have been put through the city council since he has been a member thereof, and in a great many instances has lead the fight. If Seathe has ever done anything looking forward to curtailing the influence of the liquor men, Dr. Crichton has always been foremost in the fight. He is today a strong advocate of the amendment which has for its object the raising of saloon licenses from $600 to $1,000 per year. He is also one of the hardest workers for the city owning its own electric light plant and was one of the foremost workers in the fight for the city owning its own water works, and is in a way an advocate of the municipal Regular Reada Rel Re That's The Seattle Tel. Main 305 High L If ownership of the street railways. It can truly be classed as a reform advocate on all public questions, but by no means does his reform leaders leash him into extremes which would in jure the standing of the city or impair its credit in any shape, form or manner. The business men and property owners of the Eighth ward are unanimous in their desire for Dr. Crichton to succeed himself as councilman. He has not only served his ward well, but he has likewise served the city equally well, and the citizens of the other wards are exceedingly anxious that the citizens of the Eighth ward renominate and elect Dr. Crichton to the city council for another two years. Many improvements have been made through his influence by the city officials in the Eighth ward, and he is interested in many more, which, if returned to the city council, will be pushed to completion by him in the very near future. Let us hope that Dr. Crichton will be the unanimous choice of the delegates of the Eighth ward in convention assembled, and that he will not find any opposition at the polls for re-election.

Not many saloons in Seattle will go out of business rather than pay an additional $400 annual license, and if they do it will be a God-send to the citizenship of Seattle. If a large number of dive saloons would go out of business in Seattle no tears would be shed, but there is no such luck as that, even though the increase of license is voted. Shipbuilder Nixon has undertaken to float the old Tammy ship, but it appears to us that the old hull is in entirely too bad condition for even a shipbuilder to float it again.

Senator Gorman has been labeled by a few over-enthusiastic Democrats "the Democratic Moses of 1904." He may be a Moses, but, like Moses of old, we fear he will never reach the promised land. Having been repeatedly repulsed by the storm king of the north pole, science is marshaling its efforts at present to attack the south pole and hopes to have better success than he did on the north pole. From the Congressional Record as well as daily reports it is noted that Tillman, the South Carolina monstrosity, is still shooting off his mouth and further demonstrating to the general public that he has neither brains nor brilliance. Labeling Senator Gorman with reform does not by any means prove that he has reformed; on the other hand, it was by him not reforming that he succeeded in being returned from the political boneyard.

Seattle sorely regrets that noble Miss Helen Gould cannot accept her invitation to be her guest for even a brief time while she is passing through the West. Nevertheless Seattle loves Miss Gould just the same. Nothing more thoroughly demonstrates the natural brutality of a detective than when those detectives who killed the Biddies begged to kill the woman that was with them at the same time, but were prevented from accomplishing their brutal work by the sheriff and his deputies. If you have not already made up your mind to vote for high license it is time that you were doing so. The saloonmen are raising a $10,000 purse to fight the proposition, which is a splendid reason for you to vote for it. An ordinance has been introduced in the city council having for its object the prevention of women loitering in and about saloons. If that ordinance was not introduced for buncom purposes it is a long step in the right direction. Girls in Eastern cities who find employment in cities away from home have finally arrived at the sensible conclusion of forming clubs and boarding and lodging on the co-operative plan. After all, trusts and combinations are the underlying principles to all human success. One of the professors of the University of Kansas is convinced that the entire state of Kansas is underlaid with gold in microscopic particles and that the sub-soil will yield $50 per ton in gold. Some one has said, "Money is the root of all evil," and this must account for Kansas' past eratic freaks. Crazy Tillman, of South Carolina, rises to remark: "A recital of Judge Noyes' acts while judge at Nome would startle the American people." Perhaps it would, but we are of the opinion it would do so no more than would a recital of the outrages perpetrated by Tillmanism in South Carolina. Uncle Sam is the father of a good many black babies, but none of them have given him so much real worry as the two down in the isthmus, each of whom is yelling to beat the band lest the other one gets more of their Uncle Sam's sugar than he. Kick, you black babies, kick, for that is the only way you will ever get what you want. Most assuredly the Irish people are continuing to emigrate to this country in large numbers for no better reason, perhaps, than that the John Sullivan estate is still in legal dispute. If only the late Mr. Sullivan's relatives were coming to this country it would be quite sufficient to give an increased Irish emigration over what it was a few years ago. We quite agree with the Sumas News that "some are born great, some achieve greatness, others have greatness thrust upon them," but what puzzles us is how did the Sumas News find that out. It certainly has not found it out by experience either one way or the other, and we never thought that it would play either the mimic or the parrot. An exchange is of the opinion that "if Mayor Humes should be renominated for mayor of Seattle, the back numbers of the P.-I. would make interesting campaign literature," all of which is quite true, but The Republican is of the opinion that the front numbers of the Times, if Mr. Humes is nominated, will make much more interesting reading matter than the back numbers of the P.-I. If it be true that there are 7,500,000 people in London living below the poverty line, then we suggest to King Edward that he use the nation's millions that are being freely voted to him for pompous displays and imposing coronation pagans in sending some of those poverty-streken wretches to either Australia or South Africa on free passages, where they can earn their daily bread and that too, in abundance. Judge Griffin has knocked the ten hour labor law completely out of joint by declaring unconstitutional. How wise some men do get when they are elevated by the people to the bench. They declare laws unconstitutional passed by 112 members of the legislature, among whom are the ablest as well as most profound lawyers of the state, with the same "sanse froid" as veterans on the bench. But, after all what's the use of being wise unless you display it? Some Southern critic has alleged that "Boston was always ready to give the Negro an education and then give him a railroad ticket for the South," which may be quite true, but even that beats the South by a long ways, for it refuses to give him an education and then compels him to take a ticket to a "neckle party" and to occupy a front seat at that. Boston is to be complimented for educating the Negro, even if she does return him to the South, where his education can be utilized to the best advantage. That the Oregon statesmen will oppose any measure that has for its object the coming of some of the government funds to the state of Washington is a foregone conclusion, and when Congressman Tongue fights the Lake Washington canal appropriation he is doing so with a sinister motive, which sinister motive is for the purpose of getting a larger appropriation for the state of Oregon. There is neither justice nor fairness in Mr. Tongue's opposition to the Lake Washington canal, and it is hoped by all fair-minded men that the other members of Congress will not for a moment entertain his selfish ideas.

Prince Henry of Prussia has already left Germany and will doubtless steam into New York within a few days more, which will be the signal for a grand outburst of international enthusiasm. Preparations, as has been said on previous occasions in these columns, are being made for the reception of the German prince on the most extensive scale, and in every city in the United States, where he will stop for any length of time, a royal reception and welcome will be tendered him. It is thought he will be given the grandest reception of any of Europe's royalty that has ever visited the United States. It will be remembered that President Roosevelt himself boasts o German blood, of which he is very proud, and it is quite natural, under the circumstances, for a most elaborate spread to be made by the President in honor of one of the leading German officials. And now comes W. S. Bruce, a Scottish scientist, who has determined to find the south pole and to explore the Antarctic circle in general. His expedition, so it is reported, will leave England next August and expects to be gone some two years or more putting the entire time in exploring and seeking for an undiscovered continent, which is supposed to lie around the south pole. Remarkable as it may seem it is as difficult for man to reach the south pole as it is the north, on account of the great ice fields surrounding it. According to those who have already visited the southern ice fields the icebergs are even larger than those found in the north. There are already two expeditions now in operation in the Antarctic circle and the Bruce expedition will make the third and all of them will work in perfect harmony with each other. Scientists now believe that there is a continent around the south pole equally as large as the United States and to find this continent as well as locate the exact south pole are prompting the efforts of these southern expeditions. The Bruce expedition is being well supplied with money for a two years stay by English and Scottish scientists, and much scientific information is expected to result from their labor in that part of the world. --- A most sensational jail break and receptice of prisoners were reported by the Associated Press last Saturday from Butler, Pa. Two desperate burglaries as well as murderers, John and Ed Biddle, awaiting execution for murder, escaped from the county jail by the assistance of the sheriff's wife, who had become infatuated with Ed Biddle and the three fled in the darkness of the night for parts unknown. They, however, were finally captured by a herd of detectives and no sooner had the armed guards of the law caught sight of the fugitives than they opened fire on them and riddled the party with bullets. Both of the Biddles have since died and the sheriff's wife is in a precarious condition and may also die from the wounds she received at the hands of the detectives. The remarkable thing of this escape, however, lies in the fact that the detectives, after the men had faled, shot to death by them, deliberately walked within a few feet of them and emptied the chambers of their shotguns into their bodies and thereby completed their work of brutality. The average detective is not far removed from the common criminal and in most cases they have spent a large part of their lives as criminals and only quit the business because they can make it pay better, owing to their experience in the criminal world, to assist the law in capturing criminals and when they commit such acts of brutality as is reported in the Biddle case it but proves that they themselves are still criminals at heart and will do anything that any other criminal will do. There seems to have been no more excuse for the detectives shooting the Biddles after they had been shot to the ground and lay weltering in their life blood than there would have been for the shooting of new born babies, and yet the detectives with deliberation and malice aforethought did do so. Such is their life and what more could be expected of brutes than brutality. Within the present winter season four states of this union have held regular senatorial elections and two states have held special senatorial elections. These elections have resulted in the loss of two United States Senators by the Republican party and the return to power of a leading Southern Democrat, who, it was thought, some years ago had been retired to private life for all time to come, and who is none other but Arthur P. Gorman, of Maryland. The Legislature of Kentucky elected James B. McCreary, Democrat, United States Senator to succeed William J. Deboe, Republican, whose term expires March 4, 1903. The Legislature of Maryland elected Arthur P. Gorman, Democrat, to succeed George L. Wellington, a mongrel Republican, who it will be remembered, spoke most disrespectfully of President McKinley after he had ben assassinated, but who, since that time, has ben spurned and scorned by both Republicans and Democrats, his term also expires March 4, 1903. J. B. Foraker, of Ohio, has been elected by the Republicans to succeed himself, making the third time that he has been elected as United States Senator. Iowa has re-elected William B. Allison, the veteran Republican Senator of Congress, to succeed himself, making the sixth time that he has been elected to that position. It also elected Senator Dolliver to succeed himself, he having been appointed to fill out a short unexpired term. The leading journals of the country are now giving up much time to comment on the new Chinese exclusion bill, which occasionally bobs up in Congress and incidentally discussed. As has been previously said in these columns, the statesmen of this courier making haste slowly in this new Chinese exclusion bill, for the reason that their commercial constituents are making strong efforts to get the Chinese trade, and they fear if an exclusion bill, like the Geary act, be passed by Congress, the Chinese will retaliate by giving their trade to European countries instead of the United States. The Pacific Coast members of Congress are a unit of the new exclusion bill, because their constituents would prefer to loose the Chinese trade rather than to have the Chinese coolies, and should Congress relent in any way from the rigid Geary exclusion act there will be trouble at home with the members of Congress when it comes to their re-election. There is not a single State west of the Mississippi River but what is religiously in favor of the rigid exclusion of the Chinese from this country, and each and every one of them demand that Congress pass the new exclusion laws without any quibblings, one way or the other, which it is hoped it will do and do it at an early date. 1 The State of Louisiana has discontinued the convict lessee system and has established in lieu thereof a convict farm on which the prisoners are compelled to work, which, up to the present day, has proved to be a most profitable experiment. The constitution adopted by the State of Louisiana in 1898 provided that after the expiration of the leases then in force no more convicts should be hired out, but that they should be worked on a State farm. A subsequent Legislature appropriated $200,000 for the purchase of the necessary lands and implements and the work was begun. It was a most successful experiment from the very outset, as the State realized from the two farms it purchased $180,000 in cash the very first year. Aside from this, it had a most salient effect upon the health and life of the prisoners, owing to the fact that they were given outdoor exercise and the mortality among the prisoners has been reduced one-half. The prisoners are comfortably clothed and housed and worked in regular hours, and living in the open air and fed on substantial food from these farms, which is much better and proves more profitable to the State when they are leased for a few cents per day and work in close, ill-ventilated shops and factories. The Louisiana convict experiment, if experiment it may be called, is being closely watched by the other Southern States, and even by Northern States.

Prince Henry of Prussia has already left Germany and will doubtless steam into New York within a few days more, which will be the signal for a grand outburst of international enthusiasm. Preparations, as has been said on previous occasions in these columns, are being made for the reception of the German prince on the most extensive scale, and in every city in the United States, where he will stop for any length of time, a royal reception and welcome will be tendered him. It is thought he will be given the grandest reception of any of Europe's royalty that has ever visited the United States. It will be remembered that President Roosevelt himself boasts o German blood, of which he is very proud, and it is quite natural, under the circumstances, for a most elaborate spread to be made by the President in honor of one of the leading German officials. And now comes W. S. Bruce, a Scottish scientist, who has determined to find the south pole and to explore the Antarctic circle in general. His expedition, so it is reported, will leave England next August and expects to be gone some two years or more putting the entire time in exploring and seeking for an undiscovered continent, which is supposed to lie around the south pole. Remarkable as it may seem it is as difficult for man to reach the south pole as it is the north, on account of the great ice fields surrounding it. According to those who have already visited the southern ice fields the icebergs are even larger than those found in the north. There are already two expeditions now in operation in the Antarctic circle and the Bruce expedition will make the third, and all of them will work in perfect harmony with each other. Scientists now believe that there is a continent around the south pole equally as large as the United States and to find this continent as well as locate the exact south pole are prompting the efforts of these southern expeditions. The Bruce expedition is being well supplied with money for a two years stay by English and Scottish scientists, and much scientific information is expected to result from their labors in that part of the world. A most sensational jail break and recepture of prisoners were reported by the Associated Press last Saturday from Butler, Pa. Two desperate burglaries as well as murderers, John and Ed Biddle, awaiting execution for murder, escaped from the county jail by the assistance of the sheriff's wife, who had become infatuated with Ed Biddle and the three fled in the darkness of the night for parts unknown. They, however, were finally captured by a herd of detectives and no sooner had the armed guards of the law caught sight of the fugitives than they opened fire on them and riddled the party with bullets. Both of the Biddles have since died and the sheriff's wife is in a precarious condition and may also die from the wounds she received at the hands of the detectives. The remarkable thing of this escape, however, lies in the fact that the detectives, after the men had falen, shot to death by them, deliberately walked within a few feet and emptied the chambers of their shotguns into their bodies and thereby completed their work of brutality. The average detective is not far removed from the common criminal and in most cases they have spent a large part of their lives as criminals and only quit the business because they can make it pay better, owing to their experience in the criminal world, to assist the law in capturing criminals and when they commit such acts of brutality as is reported in the Biddle case it but proves that they themselves are still criminals at heart and will do anything that any other criminal will do. There seems to have been no more excuse for the detectives shooting the Biddles after they had been shot to the ground and lay weltering in their life blood than there would have been for the shooting of new born babies, and yet the detectives with deliberation and malice aforethought did do so. Such is their life and what more could be expected of brutes than brutality. Within the present winter season four states of this union have held regular senatorial elections and two states have held special senatorial elections. These elections have resulted in the loss of two United States Senators by the Republican party and the return to power of a leading Southern Democrat, who, it was thought, some years ago had been retired to private life for all time to come, and who is none other but Arthur P. Gorman, of Maryland. The Legislature of Kentucky elected James B. McCreary, Democrat, United States Senator to succeed William J. Debe, Republican, whose term expires March 4, 1903. The Legislature of Maryland elected Arthur P. Gorman, Democrat, to succeed George L. Wellington, a mongrel Republican, who, it will be remembered, spoke most disrespectfully of President McKinley after he had been assassinated, but who, since that time, has ben spurned and scorned by both Republicans and Democrats, his term also expires March 4, 1903. J. B. Foraker, of Ohio, has been elected by the Republicans to succeed himself, making the third time that he has been elected as United States Senator. Iowa has re-elected William B. Allison, the veteran Republican Senator of Congress, to succeed him self, making the sixth time that he has been elected to that position. It also elected Senator Dolliver to succeed himself, he having been appointed to fill out a short unexpired term. The leading journals of the country are now giving up much time to comment on the new Chinese exclusion bill, which occasionally bobs up in Congress and incidentally discussed. As has been previously said in these columns, the statesmen of this courier making haste slowly in this new Chinese exclusion bill, for the reason that their commercial constituents are making strong efforts to get the Chinese trade, and they fear if an exclusion bill, like the Geary act, be passed by Congress, the Chinese will retaliate by giving their trade to European countries instead of the United States.

There is not a single State west of the Mississippi River but what is religiously in favor of the rigid exclusion of the Chinese from this country, and each and every one of them demand that Congress pass the new exclusion laws without any quibblings, one way or the other, which it is hoped it will do and do it at an early date. The State of Louisiana has discontinued the convict lessee system and has established in lieu thereof a convict farm on which the prisoners are compelled to work, which, up to the present day, has proved to be a most profitable experiment. The constitution adopted by the State of Louisiana in 1898 provided that after the expiration of the leases then in force no more convicts should be hired out, but that they should be worked on a State farm. A subsequent Legislature appropriated $200,000 for the purchase of the necessary lands and implements and the work was begun. It was a most successful experiment from the very outset, as the State realized from the two farms it purchased $180,000 in cash the very first year. Aside from this, it had a most sulatory effect upon the health and life of the prisoners, owing to the fact that they were given outdoor exercise and the mortality among the prisoners has been reduced one-half. The prisoners are comfortably clothed and housed and worked in regular hours, and living in the open air and fed on substantial food from these farms, which is much better and proves more profitable to the State than when they are leased for a few cents per day and work in close, ill-ventilated shops and factories. The Louisiana convict experiment, if experiment it may be called, is being closely watched by the other Southern States, and even by Northern States. CALL FOR REPUBLICAN CITY CONVENTION.

The local man of The Republican received a list of the officers of the Afro-American League of the United States. He regrets that no provision was made for its entire publicity so written by Eugene Field of Chicago. Suffice it to say that John G. Jones, the president, is an able and worthy defender of the race and merits all the confidence reposed in him. He is also an officer of the Afro-American Council and Business Men's League, and at present is a member of the lower house of the Illinois legislature. Colonel Pledger, a national character, is editor of the Atlanta Age and at present chairman of the State Central Committee of Georgia. Harry C. Smith, a veteran newspaper man, editor of the Cleveland Gazette, three times elected to the Ohio legislature. W. Calvin Chase, editor of the Washington Bee, a pioneer nwpaper edited at the capital. W. R. Morris is a well known attorney at Minneapolis, and is well known to many of The Republican readers. J. E. Hawkins of this city is too well known to need any extended notice except to say that he is a successful practitioner at the local bar and was chief counsel in the Henry murder trial. The officers are as follows: John G. Jones, president; H. C. Smith, first vice president; W. A. Pledger, second vice president; J. E. Hawkins, third vice president; James A. Guy, fourth vice president; A. M. Thomas, fifth vice president; W. F. Morris, sixth vice president; George L. Knox, treasurer; W. C. Chase, secretary; J. L. Thompson, assistant secretary; John A. Bell, assistant secretary. The L'Allegro Club, a dancing society of bankers, brokers, etc., have issued a unique invitation to its members. They announce in the following well chosen English that George Rideout is their caterer, viz: "During the evening congealed aqua pura will be hypodermically injected in homeopathic doses to unvaccinated dancers by Dr. Rideout without extra charge." A gentleman's social club is now in process of formation with J. F. Cragg well as the moving spirit. The season is now fast approaching when trolley and launch parties and other similar pastimes will be in favor and these young men are simply taking "time by the forelock." Geo. Williamson and F. D. Witheres of "Terry's Uncle Tom's Cabin Co." were in Seattle Wednesday from Everett. They report big business all along the line and regret to know that Seattle will be unable to see them on account of the local theatre booking being well filled. The opening of the Queen City Club Monday evening was a successful event. Harry Smith and Archie Hunt have proven themselves entertainers as well as dispensers of "good cheer." J. F. Cragwell and A. R. Black were in Tacoma Wednesday to attend the funeral of the father of Attorney Sledge of that city. Geo. Brunaugh, Ed Claxton and A. B. Goodell of St. Paul are in the city and registered at the S. C. P. Club. Rev. McPherson will preach at the Mt. Zion church Sunday, February 9th, at 11 a. m. and 7 p. m. Jim Anderson of Portland is in the city. What has become of the Ladies' Whist Club? W. H. Echols of Montreal is in the city. "Human Hearts." "Human Hearts," the idyl of the Arkansas Hills, will be seen at the Third Avenue Theatre next week, opening Sunday matinee. Like "Shore Acres" and "The Old Homestead," as well as other favorites, time only increases its hold upon the hearts of the people. The prattle of an innocent child, the tears of an old blind mother, the strong love of a simple country girl, the truta of a half-wit, the love of an old-time negro, the passion of an adventure and the tender memory of a dead mother of the past of the Governor of Arkansas, are all cleverly intermingled by the deft hand of the author of this absorbing tale of the Arkansas Hills. Each succeeding season of this thrilling play's annually increasing business, has induced the management to engage for this season's production one of the strongest companies ever organized in one cast. To the lovers of a good play, not one on the list this season will appeal more strongly than "Human Hearts." "The Prisoner of Zenda." That fascinating and inspiring romance, "The Prisoner of Zenda," is the attraction at the Grand Sunday night and Wednesday matinee of next week. This play has attracted more attention and drawn larger audiences than any other which has held the boards during the last decade and it is in compliance with repeated requests from managers who played the attraction last season that it has been decided to present it en tour for the coming year. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights "Rupert of Hentzau" will be given. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for King County— Ellis Morrison, plaintiff, v. Franklin Roberts, Alex.
