The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT PIE. VOL. VIII, NO. 38 Next Monday night will begin the preliminary skirmish for the big municipal fight in Republican circles in this city, which will terminate at the convention one week from today. At the caucus delegates will be nominated who will be voted for at the primaries, whichh will be held Wednesday, February 19, and the successful candidates at those primaries will make up the convention to be held Friday, February 21, which will nominate the Republican municipal ticket for the coming election to be held on March 4. As the time draws nearer the fight waxes warmer, and it would appear at the present writing that the Republicans are slated for the hottest primary fight that Seattle has ever before tackled. 一 As was said in last week's Republican, the mayoral contest has completely overshadowed everything else that will be voted upon in the coming convention. The question is: are you for Paul or for Humes? And on this answer hangs the great political battle. The Pie-maker intimated last week that there was some disposition on the part of some of the other candidates for office to line up on the mayoral question, and subsequent developments have brought out the fact that S. F. Rathbun has decided to cast his lot with the Humes faction and rests the success or failure of his case on that convention vote. No other candidate has as yet taken such a stand, and it is highly probable that they will not, though it is believed that Mr. Paul's friends will for the most part support John Rip linger for city controller. That Paul is a very popular politician, and that he will give Mr. Humes the hardest tussel for the mayorality nomination that Mr. Humes has ever before had, is very apparent. All over town you can hear the clamor for Paul. The voters have decided that there are others in the city as much entitled to official recognition as is Mr. Humes and that the good things are not all for one man, but should be distributed among the many. On these grounds hundreds of voters will support Mr. Paul who on previous occasions have supported Mr. Humes. --- During the entire time that Frank H. Paul has been before the public in either an official or private capacity he has proved himself to be faithful to every trust and confidence imposed in him and has been the same first last and all the time. As a private citizen and as a public official he has left a clean record behind him, and no man, whether he be friend or foe, can point the finger of scorn or opprobrium at him for any misdeed that he ever committed one way or the other. If it is a man with a clean, straightforward business record that the public wants, they have him in Frank H. Paul, and the Ple-maker believes that the voters, or that part of them who look and act for the general good of the city, will support his candidacy and elect delegates next Wednesday afternoon to the convention who will nominate him by an overwhelming majority, and if he is nominated there is not the slightest doubt but that he will be elected by a very large majority. --- The city council is still wrangling over a site for a location for the Carnegie library. It was given out that the matter would be settled last Monday evening, but the council refused to settle it and laid it over for another week. A number of sites have been offered to the council, but to the Ple-maker no site that has been offered is equal to the old Yesler home site on Third avenue between James and Jefferson. Of all the places in the city that would make an ideal library site that leads, and it is hoped that the council will look at it in this light and select that place on which to erect the Carnegie library. Of course there is more or less speculation on in locating this building, for if it goes to this, that or the other place, soqebody is to get a big rake-off from it in commission, but if it goes to the Yesler estate then, notwithstanding the fact that somebody will get a big commission out of it, nevertheless it will meet the hearty approval of 99 per cent of the patrons of the library and after all this should be the principal motive in locating a library site for the benefit of so large a city as Seattle. --- Speaking about the coming primar- ies and election prompts the Pie-maker Historical Societies to make the following preduction: If Humes is nominated by the Republicans and Godwin by the Democrats, Godwin will be elected by a thousand majority. If, on the other hand, Paul is nominated by the Republicans and Godwin is nominated by the Democrats, Paul will be elected by 2,000 majority. If Humes is nominated by the Republicans and S. S. Bailey by the Democrats, Humes will be elected by 3,000 majority. The why that Humes would be elected by such an overwhelming majority over Steve Bailey if he was nominated by the Democrats would be of two evils the people would think they were taking the lesser in Tom Humes. (Of course they would be mistaken.) The reason why that Paul would be elected over Godwin if they were opposing candidates lies in the fact that Godwin would at once announce himself as an advocate of the wide-open policy and the decent people have had all of that they want and they would support Paul, believing that they would be getting a better man, and it should not be forgotten that Seattle is a Republican town under ordinary circumstances anyway. The reason why that Godwin would defeat Humes if he is nominated lies in the fact that Humes has disgraced Seattle for the past five years and the citizens of this city are good and tired of it and will rise in their might and turn him down if they can at the primaries, and failing to turn him down there they will turn him down at the polls. It may be very hard to vote for a Democrat when one can vote for a Republican, but when a Republican is of the Tom Humes stripe, then to vote for a Democrat, even of the Jeff Davis stripe, is comparatively easy. The wide-open policy represented by Tom Humes will be turned down either at the coming election and Mr. Humes had just as well understand this now as after it is all over. It is plain to be seen why the Democrats want Tom Humes nominated, and so plain that the Republicans that cannot see it should deny having any knowledge whatever of municipal politics. The Democrats know that Humes is an easy mark for them to defeat at the polls. They know that all the way from 1,500 to 2,500 Republican voters will cast their ballots against Tom Humes at the polls the 4th of next March. Some of them may not vote for Godwin, but they will not vote for Humes, in in which case it will be a half a vote for Godwin. If Humes is nominated the very next day the Times will come out and charge Humes with corruption, vice and extravagance in a manner never before laid at the doors of a political office holder. Humes will be charged with having caused the death of William Meredith, he will be charged with running the town as a resort and asylum for the cuthroats, thugs, murderers and thieves and he will be charged with a hundred and one other crimes and sins against nature that are too objectionable to be even put in print. Under such an arrangement the Democrats and the better thinking Republicans as well, know that Mr. Humes will go down in wretched defeat at the polls March 4th. Now the question arises do the Republicans wish to put their party's best interests at stake by placing such a man as Tom Humes as its standard bearer? That Tom Humes is a weak candidate and is growing weaker from day to day can be seen by noting the figures of the last city election, when he ran 2,500 votes behind Paul and Parry and only managed to save his election by a large number of Democrats voting for him because said Democrats absolutely refused to vote for George F. Cotterill, the prohibitionist, temperance crank and political pessimist in general. Had Mr. Godwin been nominated by the Democrats two years ago he would have been elected by at least 750 majority. The followers of Tom Humes still believe that those Democrats who voted against Cotterill two years ago will vote for Humes this year, but they reason without their host, because at the coming election the Democrats will have a straightforward life long Democrat to vote for in the person of J. W. Godwin, and it is not reasonable to suppose that they will vote for a Republican when they can get an opportunity to vote for a genuine Democrat. It can therefore be safely reasoned that the 1,000 Democrats who voted for Mr. Humes two years ago will as a unit cast their vote for Mr. Godwin next March. Now if SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1902 Mr. Humes loses the entire church vote, and he will, there will be no more hopes of him being elected that there would be for a pound of ice pass through Hades without melting That Mr. Paul represents the better element of voters in this city may be seen from the men who are taking an active part in his campaign. About Mr. Paul's headquarters and in the various wards and precincts in the resident portion of the city may be found such men as Hon. E. H. Gue. E. C. Neufelder, P. D. Hughes, S. H. Piles, J. H. Powell, Ira Bronson and many others, who, in the past, have supported Mr. Humes in his political ambitions, but who have tired of this and for the first time in Humes' political history, they are fighting him. Of course the leading voters of the First ward are out for Humes just as in the past because they have reaped the reward of his five years' wide open administration. The Clauses, the Angles and the other gambling kings have made fortunes for themselves and families during the past five years because Tom Humes has kept the city wide-open and made it possible for them to rob right and left hearts of hell. It is to be expected that such human outcasts will support Mr. Humes, but do the respectable citizens of this city propose to sit idly by and see such a condition of affairs repeated for another two years? The man or the men who will try to make a senatorial fight out of this municipal campaign is a political stinker and has no interest whatever in the welfare of the city. Paul may not be your ideal man for Mayor, but he is certainly quite a number of ideas higher than Tom Humes and the policy which he represents and carries out when he is elected. Do not reason to yourself that you will beat Tom Humes at the polls, but go in to defeat him at the primaries and if you do this you will have two whacks at defeat ing him, and between the two you are almost certain of getting your man. In naming the candidates seeking Republican nominations the name of F. M. Muldoon, who is a candidate for renomination for councilman-at-large was accidentally overlooked. Mr. Muldoon is very much in the fight and stands an excellent show of getting the nomination. --- High license will carry. There is no doubt of it any more for there is not a man outside of the First ward except a few of similar ilk in the Fifth ward, who will vote for a continuation of low license. Men who are constant patrons of saloon bars yet have respectable families, will vote for a high license because they know it is the only way that the saloon business will be regulated. It is to be regretted that the license was not placed at $2,000 instead of $1,000 per year, for it would have been voted just the same as will the $1'000 per year be voted. The Ple-maker hopes that by the time the next municipal election comes around that the city council will submit a proposition to the people to vote that no saloons shall close their doors or use screens in any shape, form or manner to prevent those drinking at the bar from being seen from the streets. If this is done a long step toward drinking reform will be brought about, for there are few men and no women, with the exception of a few that have fallen so low in the slums of degradation that they have no respect for either themselves or anyone else, that will stand up in plain view of the streets and gurgle down beers and whiskies by the glass at all hours of the day. The voters of this city had a genuine scare last Saturday evening when the Times made its appearance on the streets declaring that the corporation council had decided that the proposition for Seattle to vote to own its own electric light plant was void, as it had not been properly published. This is a matter that the people have long desired to vote on and, coming as it did at the time of the general election, those interested in it most felt absolutely certain that the proposition would carry by a two-thirds majority, whereas should it be submitted at a subsequent election, not enough persons would be interested in it to come out and vote for it and if the electric light companies of the city made any efforts at all it would be defeated. It will be remembered that at the call election to vote heavy school bonds for this city not long since, not over three on four hundred persons voted one way or the other on the proposition, out of a voting population of at least 18,000. The people do not seem to be much concerned in such matters and unless it comes at the times candidates are looking for elections it is not given very much consideration, and even then it is not given the amount of consideration that is should be. Whether or not Seattle should own its own electric light plant, is a question that you and each of you should thoroughly study out between this and election day. This question, like all other questions, has two sides to it and the Ple-maker is of the opinion that when you shall have gone over the entire situation you will cast your vote for the city owning its own electric light plant and run the risk of the investment proving a loosing one. --- The stewardess board of the A. M. E. Church of this city will give a campaign supper at the G. A. R. hall in the Collins block, Second Avenue and James Street, March 3rd next, at which time they will serve a most excellent dinner to the general public. 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.

In commemoration of the great Emancipator the citizens of this country pald nomage to his birthday last Wednesday. In the state of Washington the birthday of Lincoln is a legal holiday and the same is true of many of the other states in this Union, who honor and revere the memory of the United States' greatest and most noted son. Throughout the South the memory of Lincoln is only kept green by the colored folk of that section and a few of the Grand Army veterans, who have strained South in their endeavor to better their financial conditions. That they are awkwardly situated and surrounded goes without saying, but, despite their peculiar surroundings, they never fail to pay their annual tribute of respect to the birthday of the hero of the great Civil War, Abraham Lincoln. It is quite noteworthy that the birthdays of the two greatest men ever produced in the United States come in the same month of the year and only ten days apart. The 22d of February the country will celebrate Washington's birthday and thereby will the birthdays of the two greatest men of our country be celebrated in the same month. --- Crescent Cream Coffee CRESCENT MARINE CRESCENT CREAM COFFEE Brewed and Distributed Crescent Milling Co. in cities of 12000 GUINEA TERREES SALITA MUNICIPALITY Strictly High Grade; Used by all Lovers of Really Good Coffee and Recommended by the Leading Chefs. SEATTLE ELECTRIC CO. The Black Jack Rake-off In opposition to the city operating its own electric light plant, the Seattle Electric Company has submitted the following arguments and stand ready to verify every assertion, allegation and statement herein. The propositions that the company advance are well worthy of your most careful consideration before you make up your mind to cast your vote one way or the other. To the Editor: In the Star of February 5 there was an article in regard to the municipal lighting plant which made it appear that if the city put in a municipal plant the cost of supplying street lights would be very much less than the price now paid to the Seattle Electric Company. According to the figures in this raticle 2,500 horse power could be delivered to the city at 2,200 volts from a plant at Cedar Falls at an annual cost of $18 per horse power. This is merely an estimate, and, like all estimates, is apt to be incorrect. Estimates are usually smaller than the actual cost turns out to be, as would probably be the case of this estimate, but, for the sake of argument, we will assume that this cost of $18 per horse power per year is correct. It also stated in this article that 80 per cent. of 1 horse power is required for an are light and 16 2-3 per cent. of a horse power for a 30 candle power incandescent. This estimate of power required is practically correct for 2,200 volts at the city station. During Year 1901 During the past year the Seattle Electric Company has had on its municipal circuits an average of 1,080 incandescentes and 145 arcs, or an equivalent of 370 arcs. On the above basis of power required these lamps would take 296 horse power, which at $18 per horse power per year would amount to $5.288. In figuring the annual cost of arc lights the fixed charges of the distributing plant are placed at $15, and carbons, trimmings and repairs at $10.50. The $15 is on a basis of 4 per cent, interest and 6 per cent, depreciation on the cost of the distributing system. On a basis of 370 arc lights this amounts to $570. Practically a New Plant. The municipal system of the Seattle Electric Company has been entirely reconstructed in the past two years, and an accurate account has been kept of the cost of reconstructing, and this cost for transformers, switchboard, wire work and lamps and a proportionate share of the cost of new poles, but no part of the cost of old poles on which municipal wires are run, has amounted to a little over $50,000. This cost includes no portion of the cost of the station in which the transformers and switchboard are located. This checks very nearly with the amount of fixed charges as taken in the above mentioned article. The estimate for carbons, trimmings and repairs is the one involving the most variables, and would therefore naturally be the most difficult to estimate correctly. However, with the Seattle Electric Company this is a condition and not a theory. Will Thomas Jefferson Humes, the present mayor of Seattle and the director of the gambling games in this city, please explain why it is that the Clanies are able to compel everybody who runs a "black jack" game in the city of Seattle to pay to them forty per cent of the earnings of such games? Will Mr. Humes please explain, why it is that the Clanies are given such special privileges and prerogatives over other persons who operate games in Seattle? If the reader will take time to run his mind back over the night prior to the last municipal convention he will call to mind that the Clanies stood out all day and all night fighting the nomination of Tom Humes because he would not concede these privileges to them. ITEMS OF INTEREST. In the United States there are 17 communities of Shakers. Even in italy drunkenness is said to be diminishing. To build the submarine tunnel from Wigton, Scotland, to Larney, Ireland, 23 miles, it will cost $50,000,000. In Germany the factory hand consumes on an average of one gallon of beer a day, and in England the consumption is still larger. America leads the world in the number of women practicing medicine. There are at present 6,000 women in the United States doing the medicine act. Cost of Street Lights An accurate account has been kept of the expense of maintaining municipal lights for the past year, and is given below, itemized: Trimnings and inspecting ..$1,768.57 Repairs arc lamps ..316.70 Carbons ..346.33 Inner globes ..65.18 Outer globes ..106.14 Incandescent lamp renewals ..1,755.21 Stable expense ..578.20 Repairs line ..3,723.38 Total ..... $8.659.71 The cost of maintaining the equivalent of 370 acres for one year is $8,660 or $23.46 per acre, which cost is more than 50 per cent, higher than the cost of power. This is the only item in the estimated cost in regard to which there is definite information, and this item is more than twice the estimated amount. The cost of power is based entirely on an estimate, as is also the 6 per cent, figured for depreciation on the distributing system. Very Small Profit. The income which would be derived by the Seattle Electric Company from the above lamps at the rate now paid by the city would be $26,640. Taking the cost of power at $18 per horse power per year and interest and depreciation at $5,550 as given in the article under discussion, the Seattle Electric Company figure the cost to them of supplying this service as follows: Power ..... $ 5,328.00 Maintenance as itemized above ..... 8,660.00 Interest and depreciation ..... 5,550.00 General expense ..... 3,330.00 Labor in station ..... 1,200.00 Taxes ..... 1,000.00 Total ..... $25,038.00 This makes a total cost of $25,038.00 which is only $1,602.00 less than the revenue. A New Steam Station. This estimate or cost includes nothing for the expense of maintaining a steam station for carrying this load in case of failure in any part of the transmission system. This is not at present furnished by the Seattle Electric Company, but in a few months, when its new power station is put into operation the company will be able to continue to supply current for the city lights even in case of failure of the supply of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company. This station is being put in at a very great cost, and, taking this into consideration, would increase the cost of supplying municipal lights at least 10 per cent. An Item Overlooked. In case the city installed a municipal plant they would have no steam station reserved, and in case of any interruption of supply, which is liable to occur in all long distance transmission, the city would be in total darkness. Some of the items of cost will be less per lamp when the number of lamps is increased. The increase in Finally they made a sham deal with Judge Austin's friends to support him and then they took this to Mr. Humes and used it as a club over his head to force him to give them this privilege, which he did, and the next day, instead of the Clanicles supporting Mr. Austin on the convention floor as they promised at 2 o'clock that morning they would do, they cast their votes for Tom Humes, and since that time they have been in complete control of the black_ack games in this city, and every person wanting to conduct a black-jack game herein have been compelled to pay to the Clanicles 40 per cent of their gross earnings. This is the kind of a mayor that the good citizens of this city have been informed by George Piper, who does Eugene M. Schmitz, who was recently elected mayor of San Francisco, is the musical director of an orchestra and leads his orchestra every night since he has been elected the same as before. England's Wesleyan Methodists failed to raise a million guineas that they undertook to do in order to celebrate the twentieth century, but they did raise $3,610,000 and have the promise of $1,400,000 more. Two hundred thousand pounds have been placed at the disposal of King Edward for charitable purposes by a philanthropist, who is none other than Sir Ernest Cassel. A sanitarium for tuberculosis patients in England will be established at once. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 AN CENTS O. PRICE FIVE CENTS TRIG CO. the number of lamps will be accomplished by replacing incandescentes with arcs, by putting in lights more frequently on existing lines, and by putting in lights where there are no lines now, which will require an extension of the lines. The first two methods of increase will not increase the investment or labor in station in proportion to the increased load. The company reduced the price of supplying lights to the city on the first of this year, and promised a further reduction in the future, which will undoubtedly be made as the number of lamps is increased. In the above mentioned article the following statement is made: "The possible power derivable from the falls for use in the city is, therefore, 15,000 horse power. In Mr. Nobie's judgment this is sufficient to supply a city of a million people with light for both public and private use, and leave a large surplus for other purposes." 50,000 Horse Power Will Be Needed. In connection with this it might be interesting to state that the maximum load for lighting and power on the Seattle Electric Company's stations during last December, exclusive of power used for street railways, was 4,000 horse power. There must be in addition to this about 1,000 horse power furnished by other companies, making a total of about 5,000 horse power. Taking the present population of Seattle as 100,000, if the use of electricity only increases in the same ratio as the population, by the time Seattle has a million people the maximum electrical horse power in use for lighting and power purposes, exclusive of street railways, should be 50,000 horse power, but there is no doubt that the use of electricity will increase in a much faster ratio, and that by the time Seattle has a million population it will be using a maximum load of 100,000 horse power or more in electricity for various purposes, ends from what is required for street railways. In regard to the price which it would be possible to obtain from the sale of the excess of 5,000 horse power over the city's requirements for lighting, it might be of interest to state that the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company advertise a scale in which the price per horse power decreases as the amount of power increases. Their price for 1,000 horse power for 24 hours per day is $30 per horse power per year. It seems reasonable to suppose that they would make a lower price on 1,900 or 2,000 horse power, so that if the city disposed of this power they would have to meet this price. Without making a large investment for a distributing system it would be impossible to realize as much as $30 per horse power per year, especially as it would be impossible to dispose of anywhere near all the power on a 24-hour basis. SEATTLE ELECTRIC CO. Rake-off off nothing but fix up political deals from one campaign to another, and always to Seattle's detriment, that they are compelled to have, whether they are willing or not. To the good citizens of Seattle it is now up to you as whether you will give your vote to continue such a rudinous policy. If so vote for a Humes delegation, if not vote for a Paul delegation. If gambling is to be permitted, the Clanches, nor any other combination, should have no right whatever to get 40 per cent of the other gamblers' earnings. If gambling is to be permitted it should be an open field for everyone who desires to go into the business and not the protected property of any one man as it now is under the Humes administration.

Seattle Democracy wants to see the Republicans nominate Humes in order that it will have a dead easy snap in electing Godwin. From the number of lives lost and the valuable property that was consumed by the flames, King Fire reigned supreme last Sunday. That Kansas man who has been twice married and celebrated a silver wedding with each wife must have silver to burn by this time. The Electric Company has a word to say in another column concerning the city operating its own electric light plant that merits its consideration. The Sunday Times was "a great paper," because the Sunday Times itself said so, and it is always a poor paper that will not toct its own horn. If South Dakota has any edge on Seattle for divorce granting, then she must have a set of judges who do nothing else save hear marital tales of woe. America's "christian science" nuisance has struck Germany, and, judging from a distance, it is going to get a genuine Dutch dose if it does not move on. Having added another $30,000 to his already heavy bank roll from the sale of the Hotel Northern, Steve Bailey must be ready to play mayorality ball with a vengeance. Of course Seattle's pay roll is the largest ever before in her history, and it is so for no other reason than because Seattle herself is larger than she ever was before. Democracy has already begun to cast about for a "paramount issue" on which to make the coming presidential campaign, but to find it does not seem to be an easy undertaking. That 16-year-old clerk in Chicago who gave up his young life in defending his employer's "wallet" containing only $6.90 was a hero in a way, but he showed more bravery than good sense. "Everybody will regret that the President's young son is seriously ill," chimes the Times, which is quite true, but why any more so for the President's young son than any other law-abiding American's young son? You can or you can not vote for an electric light plant to be owned by the city. Decide in your mind which, in your opinion, would prove the greatest good to the greatest number, and then vote your honest convictions. Says the Ellensburg Capital: "The best thing schley ever did was to sink the Spanish fleet. His next best act was to declare that he wanted no office." Are you real sure, neighbor, that he did either of those things? We do not believe it. Say, mister, you have about forty days in which to prepare yourself for the sacrificial altar of Easter bonnets and gowns. We advise you to prepare yourself at once, lest the time creep upon you and catch you unprepared, and if it does you will hear something drop. Park Commissioner C. D. C. Williams thinks Seattle has parks enough. Mr. Williams was not made park commissioner to think, but to draw his salary. He has done that very regularly, but if he goes to thinking he will sooner or later think himself out of a job. General Nelson A. Miles denies that he is seeking the nomination for President. We surmise that the General has ceased to seek for this nomination because he sought and found it a forlorn hope, and the General does not care to butt up against dead sure things. Lord Roseberry having so signally failed in his attempt to become a statesman and a leader of the British people has relapsed into novel writing. When we read his long expected speech we thought then he was something of a dreamer, but now we are thoroughly convinced of it. General Prosperity has not only been unusually lenient to the American citizen, but he has most lavishly smiled upon the Chinese colonies in this country as well, which was evidenced from their New Year's festivities, which closed in a flame of glory last Wednesday evening. The Cuban and Philippine tariffs, which have been causing much commotion in Congress for the past month or more, is still being discussed and it is hoped that within a few days more the whole affair will have been settled once for all, the ravings of that South Carolinian monstrosity to the contrary notwithstanding. While visiting in Chicago and attending a reception given by the Press Club thereof three ladies in attendance rushed forward and warmly embraced Admiral Schley. Women often show the weakness of their sex in their over zealousness, and we are of the opinion that they never showed it to a better advantage than in this instance. Despite the fact that the entire country seems ready for the immediate passage of a bill to begin the construction of an Isthmian canal, Congress does not appear inclined to want to push the matter to a focus. Evidently a railroad lobby can get in its work at the national capital just as effectively as it can at the Washington state capital. Tiring of the South African war, it has been reported from a reliable source that even the captured Boers are aiding the British in the subjugation of those Boers who refuse to lay down their arms. We grant that the Boers are fighting for a just cause, but, it is plain to be seen, however just their cause may be, they are fighting for a lost cause. Bedlam itself has broken loose in Alabama, as it is reported that at least 20 per cent of the white voters failed to pay their poll tax prior to February 1, which means that every one having failed so to do has voluntarily disfranchised himself and cannot vote at any election during the present year, which means that the devil will be to pay, sure enough. It took Uncle Sam a good many years to be convinced that the Danish West Indies was a valuable purchase, and while he made $3,500,000 by waiting thirty years, on the other hand, it is estimated that he lost five times that much during the thirty years from a commercial standpoint by not being in possession of the islands. To say the least, it was a case of pretty poor financiering. Chicago's courts of justice have decided that John Alexander Dowie's claim to being Elijah II., and on the strength of which a religious organization was founded styled Zion, is an imposter and a dead beat, and knows nothing about Elijah save what he either read or heard somebody else read in the Bible. Now we suggest that Mr. Dowie bring into court his chariot of fire and start through the skies to heaven's pearly gates and thereby convince "his honor" that he (Dowie) is hot stuff. The will of the late Governor Rogers has been filed for probate and the document is remarkable for its briefness. It is not the kind of a document that a lawyer would draw up, but it strikes us that it is the kind of a document that will stand the test of common sense courts just the same as if it was loaded down with a lot of ancient and foreign phrases that no one save a few knows anything about. If John R. Rogers was anything he was both logical and laconic, and his will is a living truth of it. Just how to suppress the anarchists who are already in this country and those who are continuing to come is a question that is giving Congress much work just now, and each Congressman seems to have a solution of his own. Unless our statesmen agree to allow some one of them to make a speciality of this matter and report a bill and then all support it, it is highly probable that the anarchists will continue to come to this country and continue to raise the devil whenever they desire and that too without fear of public molestation. The people of Seattle have a high license fight on hand. The Republican estimates that high license in Seattle will add a hundred thousand dollars a year to the revenue of that city, which will do all of the street improvements for the next five years. It will do more than that; it will decrease the number of low saloons in the city, which will make the work of the police force easier, decrease the number of criminals and consequently the number of crimes committed and the costs of the courts. Chehalis Bee-Nugget. It is going the rounds of the press at present that in the city of Milwaukee but 15 per cent of the population are American citizens, and that 15 per cent is struggling to become Germans by intermarrying with German families. Within the next two decades it is thought that every family in Milwaukee will be of German extraction, and thus completely Germanize the city. It will be the only instance on record in the United States where a foreign people have completely foreignized so large a city as Milwaukee, for when Germans reach Milwaukee they are as much in their native heath as they were before they left Europe. While the Germans are prosperous, hearty and healthy, yet this fact should be deplored by every true American citizen. Six states in this Union of states have already petitioned Congress through their respective legislatures to submit an amendment to the various states for the election of United States senators by the direct vote of the people. There seems to be no doubt of the fact that the people are becoming anxious to elect the United States senators direct at the polls instead of having them elected by lottery, chance and purchase at the hands of the legislatures. At one time or another thirty or more of the various states of the Union have signified their willingness to submit such an amendment to the people, and the time is not far distant when it will be a presidential issue and Congress will be forced to act one way or the other on it. Sooner or late Congress will be forced to favorably act on the subject, and once submitted it will be carried by a whoop. SEATTLE'S REGISTERED VOTE.

BROTHER IN BLACK Some one acquainted with the facts has written from Washington to the effect that there at present employed in the Treasury Department of the United States 210 colored persons and the compensation for these annually amount to $200,000. This is a splendid showing for just one department. The same writer likewise reports 168 per- sons or color working in the printing offices, who draw $115,600 annually. The State Department is likewise represented with persons of color, and twenty-five of them are at work in that department and they receive an- nually $22,500. In the consular, which 4s also a part of the State Department, eleven colored consuls are to be found, who draw annually $25,000. Probably the largest number of colored em- ployes in any one department of the United States is that of the Post- office Department Yhroughout the country. In the department at Wash- ington City there are thirty-four col ored employes who annually draw $24,680. The War Department em- ploys forty colored persons, and pays them an annual salary of $35,000. In the Navy Department there are twen- ty-five colored persons employed, and each of these receive on an average of $800 per annum. During the late war with Spain in 1899 there were over 15,050 colored persons employed in the War Department, and since that time $4,751,072 a year has been drawn by the colored soldier. From the above it will be readily seen that while the Negro is not represented in Con gress he is nevertheless well repre sented on the pay rolls of this coun try and he is daily increasing both it numbers and in amount on these pa} rolls. Professor Booker T. Washington, who has been making some inquiry as to what the colored man himself thinks of educational advantages, has writ: ten to a number of leading colored men throughout the South asking them if education has made the Negro more useful as a eltizen, more economical more inclined to acquire wealth and more Valuable as a skilled workman. He received 00 answers to his. in uiry, and of these 270 were flatly in the affirmative, while one was unquall fiedly in the negative, and the others were of an evasive and undecisive opinion on the subject, Certain it is that education has made the Negre more useful as a citizen and more in clined to acquire wealth, whether has made him more economical and more valuable as a skilled workman fare open questions, but, as sald above he is not only more inlined to ac quire wealth, but he does acquire it. He does not always save it; in fact more of them squander their acquired wealth than save it, but he has learn ed the art. As to being more valu able as a skilled workman, he ha: never had an opportunity to apply even what he has learned along this Une, and until the flelds of industry are open to his labors nothing can be said as to his usefulness as a skilled Ser: In the United States there are at resent 3,121 colored people who are stenographers and 3,492 professional typewriters. ‘There are 7,490 all told in the United States service, In the undertaking business there are 1,322 actively engaged. According to the census there are 430,000 colored per- sons engaged in the laundry business and 5,975 stores in the United States owned and managed by colored per- sons, Speaking about the Hawatian Islands, Professor David Starr Jordan has classified the 109,020 population as follows: 39,504 Hawaiians, 5,485 of them being of mixed blood; 21,616 are Chinese; 24.407 are Japanese; 15, 00 Portuguese, ad the remainder of the population being made up of Amer- icans, English and all other European nationalities, numbering 8,493. Of the Jast number 5,000 are Americans and 2,500 are Germans. He also states that the entire property interest of the Islands are owned by the 10,000 Amer- Jeans, Germans and other Europeans, while the natives own practically noth- ing and are mere laborers on the farms and fields of the islands. It would thus seem that something must be done by the United States to Americanize those natives or sooner or later trouble will be certain be- tween the natives and their American conquerors. Dr. Jordan says that the natives are not inclined to work, but when they do work they prefer to work for the nobility of their own race rather than for a Hiaole (foreigner). ‘The chief reason why the native hates to work is because he has a horror of being bossed by anyone. He much prefers to be his own master, work when he gets ready and let it alone when he gets ready. This, perhaps, has prompted the sugar plaaters of the islands to try the experiment of exporting large numbers of colored folks from the South to do the work, which the natives refuse to do. ‘A Washington Gity correspondent has drawn quite a contrast between the Chinese and the colored folk of this country in the way each of them take steps to protect their racial in- torests in the United States. To pre- vent Congress from passing another Exclusion Act it is claimed that the Chinese of this country have raised a purse of $100,000 for the purpose of supporting a lobby at the United States Congress to prevent the passage of the bill. On the other hand, the colored folk of the United States that are working to the end of having Congress take some steps to prevent the legalizing of the distranchiement laws of the South, have not raised one cent, but are beselging the White House with prayer, Prayer, it has been said, “availeth much,” but when it comes to political issues it is very doubtful if prayer will be of any serv- ice whatever in such a contest. “Pray without ceasing” is an excellent motto, but while you pray, you had better do some shooting at the same time. Prayer and bullets are very effective weapons, when used together, but nei- ther one of them will accomplish much ‘when alone: There seems to Le uo good and suf- ficient reason why Senator Pinrose’s bill should not become a law, as it would utilize a large sum of money which will perhaps never be called for by either the real owners or the purported heirs and owners of the money. The bill introduced by Sena- tor Pinrose is to the effect that the United States establish a home for aged and infirm colored people out of the moneys, arrears of pay and bounty due the estates of its colored soldiers who served in the late Civil War. The exact amount of such mon- eys bas not been made public, but it is estimated to run up into the many thousands, and if this amount was utilized in a large tract of land and small homes established thereon for the aged colored people who de- sire to take advantage of it, it would be a most excellent way of expending this large sum of money, which will doubtless revert to the government owing to the fact that it will never ‘be: called: for. Negroes generally take an interest in polities, which is right. ‘They ought to take an even greater and more general, and a more intelligent and comprehensive interest in polities. Not that the salvation of the race—its ad- Vancement, progress, prosperity and merit of recognition—is to be prin- cipally achieved along political lines. These must be won by industry, study, efficiency, ability and faithfulness to duty along industrial lines. Yet the Negro race has been, is, and should be more and more a potent force, and an increasingly intelligent force, in national, state and local polities. The judgment, or with some, per- haps, in one sense, the instinct rather, of almost all Negroes to yote the Re- publican ticket is wise, and for their best interests. While there are in- numerable friends and helpers of the race among Democrats, yet Negroes have nothing to gain, in a broad view of the matter, from the Democratic party. As a rule, if not invariably, the Negroes must adhere yet, for’ awhile at least, to the Republican party. | Yet the Negroes onght on some proper occasion to do something to show their number and voting strength; to give the Republican party ‘an object lesson that will bring it to sharp realization of what the Ne groes in the Northern states, especial ly in “doubtful” states, have done and are doing for that party. There seems to be but one way to do this: ‘That is, on some opportune occasion to vote as solidly as possible for some opposing candidate, some good man whose election would do no harm, but would show what the Ne- groes can do politically; what, indeed, they have done and are doing, al- most without notice and often with but slight recognition —New Age. Congress Is still debating the Phil Ippine tariff and it occasionally reaches the excitable period even agong the quiet and sedate senators. ‘The Republicans do not seem to be wholly agreed as to the kind of a tariff to give to the Philippines and the Democrats are opposed to every: thing either for or against. The aver- age Democrat has no specific idea as to what would be the best tariff to ad- minister to the Philippines, but as he is on all other great public questions so is he against the Republican ideas of this tariff. Anything brought for- ward and advocated by a Republican even if it is good is opposed by a Democrat on the grounds that he thinks it is his christian duty to fight Republicanism, whether good or bad.

Optical work a specialty at Goldman's 901 Second avenue, Burke Block. Jerry Logan and J. H. Ryan were in Tacoma Saturday. Attorney Sledge of Tacoma was in a city Tuesday, en route to Charleston on legal business. Mrs. Blackshire, formerly of 618 Cherry street, this city, is expected to return in the near future, en route to Dawson. The "Queen of Hayti" company passed through the city Sunday on their way to Tacoma, where they opened at the Lyceum on the 11th. Billy Wilson, the popular tonsorial artist, is contemplating leaving Seattle early in the spring by one of the northbound boats for Dawson. It goes without saying "that Billy will get his." Terry's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" company passed through the city Sunday from Everett, en route to Victoria. They report business as good in the city of smokestacks. Why did St. Valentine choose the same day to celebrate as the Rainier Grand Walters? To the person or persons bringing the correct answer to the Germain Hall Friday evening will be presented with one of the prize cakes set aside for the walkers. A rumor was current this week that a colored man had knocked some one down in the audience at one of the local theaters for insulting a lady in his company. The truth of this could not be verified, and probably was started by one who had "changed their brand of hop." A spirted divorce suit was on this week, where five persons were interested, the defendant, plaintiff, one attorney on one side, and two opposing. And all of the parties colored. And still there are persons who maintain the Negro is not in the march of progress. A report is current in railroad circles that the Great Northern will replace the four crews of white waiters on their dining tars, as they are not giving the same satisfaction as the colored waiters. This is a cheerful bit of news and the hope is cherished that it is true, as is well-known that the Great Northern is probably of all corporations today the most favorably inclined to the Negro. The oyster supper that was slated for Tuesday evening at the A. M. E. Church, proved to be a supper without oysters, the purchasing agent for the church either overlooked placing the order for the same or the merchant failed to deliver as ordered. And the patrons contented themselves in listening to a fair programme and partaking of ice-cream and cake. Quarterly queeting will be held Sunday at the A. M. E. church, Rev. Bailey, P. E., will be present, at which time he will announce the meeting of the quarterly conference. This conference promises to be of more interest to the members of this church, now than at any other time, an itemized account of the financial condition of the church will be presented in which will reflect no doubt the indefatigable efforts put forth by the members and friends led by Rev. Scott, who has been a tireless worker in his effort to save a property, that all can point to with pride. Why not give credit to Rev. Scott now? GEORGIA MINSTRELS Thirty clever colored people will on Sunday evening present at the Grand an up-date minstrel performance The Georgia Minstrels have a big list of novelties and promise a good entertainment at popular prices. "THE PRINCESS CHIC." The presentation of "The Princess Chic" at the Grand on Friday, Saturday and Sunday of next week is justly regarded as the chief musical event of the season. Kirke La Shelle's Opera Company, which appears in this place, is headed by Maude Lillian Berri, and the supporting company has been strengthened by the addition, among others, of Dorothy Hunting, whose wonderful soprano voice has won high commendation wherever she has sung. "FOR HER SAKE." Nothing in the way of a Russian drama has made such a pronounced impression as "For Her Sake," which comes to the Third Avenue Theatre next week opening next Sunday matinee. Being built on new and original lines, it takes precedence over any Russo-Siberian play yet written. depicts life as actually seen in that far-away country with startling accuracy.
