Seattle Republican

The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Historical POLITICAL POT PIE. VOL. VIII. NO. 45 In order to boom Harold Preston's candidacy for the United States senate a business men's club has been organized in Seattle, and he names of a number of them appear on its role of 'membership. Upon the face of the whole affair it would seem that Mr. Preston had received an unexpected boom that will come pretty nearly landing him in the United States senate as soon as the voters of the state of Washington get an opportunity to elect him, but the organization of political clubs does not always accomplish all that their organizers would have them do. It is not the person who succeeds in having a club organized in his political interest that always succeeds in getting the desired political nomination and election, in fact just the opposite is the rule. However, there are occasional exceptions to the rule, and this may, be the exception. The man who as the early bird succeeds in having his neighbors to organize a special club for his benefit invariably is the man who gets left in the primaries, for the reason that he has assumed the aggressive and has apparently got the bulge on all the other politicians, and the entire opposition organize to defeat him, believing thereby to gain a point for each of the other aspirants. It is the rule of all games of chance for those in the arrears to combine against the leader in order to make the game more interesting. This is true of politics as well as other games of chance, and it is more than likely now that all of the other aspirants will combine against Mr. Preston because he seems to be in the lead in King county. On the role of the Preston club is to be found the name of Hon. John H. McGraw, and among Mr. Preston's most ardent advocates the ex-governor takes the lead. The Pie-maker remembers that a few years ago a similar club was organized in the interests of Governor McGraw's senatorial candidacy and Harold Preston was the leading figure in the club. In fact, he was its president and its sponsor in general. The fate of that club and its political sire is too well known in this state and county to be recounted in this connection. Suffice is to say that Governor McGraw was not elected United States senator, and not only was not elected United States senator, but has completely dropped out of politics since that time, save as a personal advisor, of which the state boasts of no better. Now it is to be the irony of fate that the Preston club is to serve its master as did the McGraw club serve its master years ago. The shrewdest and most sagacious politicians in the state of Washington now agree and agreed at the time that the McGraw senatorial club of 1896 did John H. McGraw more political harm than any other political move that had ever been made in his interest since he had been conspicuous in the political affairs of the state. It drew the center of fire on him and King county being the largest county, the factions all over the state combined against her and so completely overthrew her in Republican politics that she has not as yet recovered from the effects. While the Pie-maker is not doing much predicting as to the outcome of the Preston club, yet it looks as though political history in this state might repeat itself, and that Mr. Preston has allowed his over-zealous friends to do the right thing at the wrong time, or the wrong thing at the right time. . . . It is rather remarkable that the Times should have been given the full accounts of the Preston club in preference to any of the Republican papers in this city, and yet it was. The Sunday Post-Intelligencer and the Washingtonian, both Republican papers, were not give an opportunity to print the news about the Preston club on Sunday, but the Times came out with a long list of names, covering in the neighborhood of four columns, as to the organization. Rumor has been flying about the streets for the past month, or ever since the last election, that the Times would be Republican in politics in the next campaign, and that it would represent the Preston-Ankeny combine in the next senatorial fight. How much of that is true the Pie-maker is unable to say, but the move on the Preston people to have the Times to publish the first announcement of their club would seem to indicate that there is more truth than poetry in the assertion that the Times is to be their organ in the coming senatorial fight. The Pie-maker learns from the Index Miner, of which Hon. C. W. Gorham, who was a member of the last legislature of this state, that President COUNTRY PRESS' OPINIONS * Roosevelt informed ex-Governor J. H. McGraw, while recently in Washington City, that there were altogether too many men in this state trying to serve personal ambitions and to the detriment of the Republican party, and that the sooner they stopped their bickerings and get in line for party harmony the better it would be for the entire party. There is no doubt in the correctness in the above statement, and the Pie-maker suggests more harmony among the Republicans and more ammunition exhausted on the enemy instead of on each other. In every county in this state there is a dangerous political warfare going on among the Republicans. Those counties that have representatives in congress are fighting and contending among themselves just the same as those counties that have no representatives in congress. For example, Pierce county has two representatives in congress, and yet a large Republican faction in Pierce county is doing everything in its power to defeat the renomination and election of both of them. The same is true of Spokane County. She has her senator and she does not want him, and so it goes in every county in the state. It does seem that the Republicans would use more common judgment in their political affairs and let their disputes end at the primaries and not take them to the polls, as they have done in the past two elections in King county. The president could have given his advice to no better man than Governor McGraw, for the governor knows what political harmony means. If the Republicans of the state of Washington would listen to Governor McGraw's advice there would not be the disputes and bickering in the party that are common at present. In order for any party to succeed it must have its leader and secondly its lieutenants. Our Ownly Jeams The Davenport Tribune is of the opinion "that James Hamilton Lewis thinks that he is on the wrong side of the fence to get back again in Congress." There is no doubt of the fact, but that he is on the wrong side of the fence to ever get back to Congress, and if he should get on the right side of the fence even then it would be a long time before he would get a show to be nominated for Congress on a Republican ticket. Going Too Rapidly. When the Centralia Chronicle says "Governor McBride is laying the wires for one of the strongest campaigns in the history of the state," it tells the plain truth without any frocks or frills on it, but when it says "the governor thus far has the approval of all the voters and he is absolutely certain of the next Republican nomination for governor," he at once drops off into dreaming, for no governor has ever gotten the approval of all the voters, and if Governor McBride has succeeded in doing so in so short a time as he has been governor, there is danger of him having the approval of none when he actually needs them. Moved to Seattle. From the Puyallup Independent it is learned that the Commonwealth formerly of Tacoma "has survived the fittest and is no more, and that Editor Fowler has established his Commonwealth in Seattle." Seattle is a very inviting field, it must be admitted, for newspaper feuds, but unless Editor Fowler makes a stronger pull than he has already made in Seattle it is more than likely that his Commonwealth will soon survive the fittest in Seattle in a similar manner as it did in Tacoma. Some Snohomish Fools. It has been generally supposed that faking was common to no other town in the state except Seattle, but from the Snohomish Tribune it is learned that ten merchants of that city had an interest in a piano on which chances were given away to every one to whom a bill of goods were sold, and they sold nearly a quarter of a million dollars worth of goods in the past four months on the strength of it when the piano was not worth at retail price to exceed $100. Seattle has a great horde of fools, but this little town in proportion to the number of its inhabitants seems to have more to the square inch than even Seattle. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 1902 and its lieutenants must be subservient to the leader, and the leader must be a man of an iron will, shrewd and sagacious in political affairs, and the rank and file must be subservient to the whole, for if they are not, then there is no probable show of party success. By all means let the Republicans benefit by the advice from the president and bring about political harmony in their ranks, even though a leader be selected that they do not wholly agree with. . . . The Pie-maker was in Portland, Oregon, one day this week, and having a few acquaintances that take an active part in the political affairs of that city, county and state, was surprised to find that the Republican party of Portland was as much divided as the Republicans of King county and perhaps even more so. The Simon Republicans, who were defeated at the primaries not long since, openly bolted the convention and will join issues with the Democratic party and will nominate an independent ticket for the express purpose of defeating Harvey Scott, the veteran editor of the Oregonian, for the election of United States senator. While the Republicans of King county may have on various occasions quietly knifed their party nominee, they have never as yet bolted a Republican convention and openly assisted the Democrats in electing an independent ticket. The Pie-maker suggests to the Republicans of Portland, and especially to Editor Scott, that he has troubles of his own and in the future it is suggested that he keep his hands off of Washington politics and settle his own political troubles before seeking to settle that of others. Perhaps John L. Wilson will agree with Eastern Washington and name the successor of Senator George Turner, but unless Eastern Washington names Senator Turner's successor from Seattle, even if Mr. Wilson agrees to give Eastern Washington that privilege, it will hardly be able to carry out its program then. Eastern Washington is not entitled to the senatorship this time, but Western Continued on 2d page. Whitman The Eureka. It is learned from the Davenport Tribune that Governor McBride has no intention of making a fight to control any county in Eastern Washington tonex except Whitman and to that end he is placing all of his patronage allotted for Eastern Washington there in. Whitman is one of the largest counties in Eastern Washington and if the governor can control it, the Northwest combination and King county he will have smooth sailing in organizing for himself and his friends a political machine that will come pretty nearly ruling the state for the next eight years. If, in the meantime Levi Ankeny is taken into the combination, and it succeeds, as it probably will, the governor will have the strongest political machine that was ever built up in the state of Washington. Kitsap is Roadless. The Sidney Independent is out with a long editorial advocating the building of beter roads in that county, which is very appropriate, as it is learned from those who have tried to travel through that country that it is practically roadless. Warning Before Taking. A patent medicine advertisement taken from one of the weekly papers of this state says, "you will never wish to take another dose of pills if you once try" (here naming the specific remedy). That is warning before taking, and if the patients will persist in taking such a remedy after such a warning they deserve to die. There is no doubt of the fact that taking some of the patent medicine remedies that is offered for sale and extensively advertised in the country weekly papers is the cause of more deaths than any of the ailments common to the human family. Think It a Lie In the Ballard Union is told the story of two Kansas farmers who traded children, one giving a boy and a load of corn for a girl. It is said the transaction was made a matter of record. Without the slightest knowledge of the identity of the Union's informant, there need not be the least hesitation in denouncing him as a liar—Tacoma Ledger. So many men are continually going to the dogs it is no wonder they howl.—Clarkston Republican. SEATTLEDOM Very Foolish Strike. The strike which was inaugurated in the city some months ago is still in vogue, with no apparent signs of it being soon settled. There is no doubt but that the strike is cripping the commercial interest of the city almost to an alarming extent. Business nouses and all kinds of enterprises are reeling the effects of hundreds of men being idle and not having their weekly earnings to put in the circulating wheel or weekly expenditures. Men who a few months ago were nappy and contented owing to the fact that they were earning each day sufficient wages to not only keep the wolf from the door, but to live in almost luxury, are now walking the streets and begging their grocerymen and other business nouses to give them credit, owing to the fact that they are now on a strike, and with no show of going to work very soon. It is too bad that men supposedly of good sound judgment would permit themselves to be duped by a lot of "walking bosses" to such an extent as to quit their jobs and walk the streets instead of working for good wages. If the strikers could at this time get all that they have contended for during the long strike they could not within a year repair the loss to themselves that has been brought on for having laid off for all of these months. If ever anyone was penny wise and pound foolish these men are the quintessence of it, all because they struck for an increase of 25 or 50 cents per day in wages more than they were getting and lost all the way from $500 to $600 in so doing. Cragwell Owns Them. Perhaps Attorney Hawkins had just reasons to feel indignant when he was informed on the streets one day this week that it would be best for him (Hawkins) to get in the Cragwell band-wagon, because, said the Cragwell admirer, "John F. Cragwell owns all the property in which the colored people out on Madison street and other parts of the city live in, and it is but natural for the tenant to do the bidding of the owner of properties in which they live." Now, Mr. Hawkins is not to exceed five feet in height, but at such information he pulled himself up and for a minute he measured fully six feet ten inches, and with a remark that would be quite too sacreligious for publication, he informed his would-be informer that "Mr. Cragwell might own some property in Seattle, but the records did not show anything of the kind, and he was very doubtful whether he owned a foot of property in which colored folk live. If Mr. Cragwell owns anything in Seattle, and if you will point it out on the records to me, then I will eat every foot of property that he owns in Seattle." Of course the man who had been talking to Hawkins had been told that fairy tale and he believed it without taking the trouble to hunt up the facts about it. It is too bad that men resort to downnight lying to carry a point, and whoever it was that informed the man that Cragwell owned all the property in which colored folk live in in this city was a prevaricator that would make Ananias hide his face in shame. Are Always in Trouble. Just why it is that the Seattle policemen are always accused of some kind of a dirty deal is a thing that very few people are able to explain. A few days ago a prisoner in the county jail preferred charges against Detective Lane and his associates, which, if true, would warrant the police commissioners in removing him from office at once. The Republican is not conversant in detective affairs, and especially of this city, and hence he cannot speak as to the authenticity of the charge, but for some reason such charges are constantly being preferred against the police officers of this city, and it does seem "to a man up a tree" that they get mixed up in such escapades altogether too frequently. While Mr. Lane has made a general denial of the charges preferred against him by the self-conessed criminal in court, nevertheless he seems to have carefully avoided making any specific denials in the matter, and had to go into court and testify before the trial judge was convinced that he did not take advantage of the man whom he had arrested and induced him, under the pretext of judicial clemency, to plead guilty to a most heinous charge, which resulted in him being given twelve years in the penitentiary, when, if he had stood his trial, a year perhaps would have been the maximum time given him. Easter Well Attended. Perhaps no Easter Sunday in Seattle was ever so generally observed as last Easter Sunday, and the most of the churches were filled at every service with throngs of visitors. At the 11 o'clock services long before the exercises actually begun the doors of the Plymouth church, the First Presbyterian church and each of the leading Episcopal churches were locked against further admission, and each of those commodious edifices had within their walls in the neighborhood of 1,000 persons. It has been estimated that not less than 65,000 persons attended services in the various churches of the city last Sunday. The decorations in all of the churches were very elaborate, and flowers were in profusion, the supply of the florists being completely exhausted before half as many as wanted them were sent out. A Colored Man Appointed. Mayor Humes has sent in the names of Richard Davis and John F. Cragg well as members of the board of park commissioners, respectively, for five and four years. Mr. Davis is one of Seattle's well-known colored men, and owns a most excellent home on Twenty-seventh avenue. He has been a resident of the city for many years and has always been highly respected by all who have known him. It is predicted that he will make a most excellent commissioner and be a credit to those who interceded in his behalf for the appointment. The appointments were referred to the council committee on parks and boulevards and will doubtless come up for confirmation next Monday evening. The salary attached to such a position is nominal, it not exceeding $100 per year. Gambling in Seattle is still a thing of the past, that is to say, public gambling, and if the edict sent out by the Clancys one day this week stands for anything gambling will be closed for an indefinite period. The only amusing thing about the gambling situation is Mayor Humes has repeatedly declared that gambling could not be closed and that no man could prevent games being run in Seattle, but the Clancys have convinced the mayor Continued on 2d page. Not a Negro There. A leading Democratic politician of Indianapolis, Indiana, rejoiced over the fact that he was once again sitting in a convention in which there was no PASSING EVENTS PASSING EVENTS * With all his faults there is no denying the fact that in the death of Cecil Rhodes, the uncrowned king of South Africa, the world has lost one of its most brilliant minds. Rhodes wondered off to South Africa a pennyless English boy, but soon turned up as the most conspicuous figure in the entire dark continent. He never succeeded in forming an actual empire in South Africa, but he ruled the country just the same. His feat of cornering the diamond market of that section of the world was one that made him the wealthiest man in the world and gave him a power in Africa that easily made him the dictator of both the financial as well as official affairs of the country. Had he lived a few years longer a transcontinental rail road would have been built by him and despite the opposition to him in England and South Africa he would have declared himself dictator of the country and defied the world's opposition. A newspaper article is going the rounds of the Eastern press to the effect that the late John P. Altgeild showed up at St Joseph, Missouri, in 1873, practically a tramp, and for a while was a charity patient in the home of a farmer a short distance from the city. From that place he went to Southeastern Kansas, where he was a railroad laborer, but taking seriously ill he gave up that work and tramped to the state capitol. Three miles from Topeka he begged of a farmer to give him light work suitable to his condition for only his board, which was done. Arriving in Topeka some two weeks later he tramped the streets looking for work, which he seemed unable to find, and he continued his trump into Andrew County, Mo., and there did farm work, cutting cord wood on the farm of Henry Mueller. On this farm he work for $10 a month for two years. In the meantime he studied law as best he could and made an effort to secure a certificate to teach a district school, but failed in the attempt. Later he secured the certificate through the influence of Mueller and earned $25 per month. In this position he bent his efforts to the study of law, borrowing books from one Judge Rea. It was not long before he was a candidate for prosecuting attorney on the Democratic ticket and after a hard fight won out. Soon after that time he met Miss Anna Rhoher and proposed marriage, but the father objected on account of Clancy and Gambling. AFRO - AMERICANISM Colored Women Voted. At a municipal election held in Lexington, Kentucky, a few weeks ago the tide of the election was turned in a certain direction by the colored women's vote. This so incensed the white citizens of that section that a petition has been forwarded to the general assembly of Kentucky, which is now in session, asking that a bill be immediately introduced and passed by the legislature making it impossible in future for women to vote at school elections. That is to say, in order to prevent a few colored women from becoming the balance of power in a closely contested election, the women of the state in general are to be disfranchised. If such a course is not penny wise and pound foolish then there is no such a thing as that. It seldom ever happens that the colored women take enough interest in school elections to get out and vote one way or the other, and when they do they should be encouraged rather than discouraged in their efforts. Perhaps the colored women, like their white sisters, voted for white trustees, and it is surmised that those get up the petition were sore over their defeat and had no real excuse for sending such a petition to the general assembly. There are a whole lot of people in this country who are given the right to cast a vote, who are not deserving of it, and who do not wear black faces either. If an educational qualification was established all over this country for would-be voters fewer vicious characters would be elected to office, and this is true of the North, South, East and West, in fact every section of the United States. Not a Negro There A leading Democratic politician of Indianapolis, Indiana, rejoiced over the fact that he was once again sitting in a convention in which there was not the straightened circumstances of the young lawyer. According to the wishes of the young girl's father, she married a young man of the town, who was cashier in a bank, but after the father's death he spent the entire fortune recklessly. He subsequently died leaving her pennyless and with five children to support. In later years she appealed to Mr. Altgeld for help, which she received. At his death he left a sum of money for the maintenance of the children. Of the 12,525 criminals convicted in one recent year in England and Wales thirty-four were sentenced to death and ten to penal servitude for life and ninety-one to ten years' penal servitude.

LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 NTS a single black face, and in gloating over it he used the following very foolish language: "The Democrats of Marion county have 7,000 black votes against them, but let the Republicans keep them. We fought to the last ditch to keep them from conterning the right of franchise on them, now let the party that conferred this right keep them, they belong to that party, not to us." One can hardly find words adequate to censure a man, who so tar forgets himself as to use language of this kind, when his party has no cinch on either the state or county. Indiana is as much a Republican state as it is Democratic, and, perhaps, more so, and if it be true that there are 7,000 colored voters in just one county in Indiana any party would be foolish in offering such an insult to 7,000 voters, for it will be remembered that Indiana never goes more than 10,000 to 20,000 Republican or Democratic, as the case may be, and this 7,000 votes could change the results from Republican to Democratic at any time and in as much as neither party gives the colored man any official recognition it would have been just as well to have left such fool remarks unsaid. From the New York Age it is learned that the Charleston exposition has caused to be placed about the exposition grounds placards pointing out the fact that this or that place is "For Whites" or this or that place "For Negroes." Such a move on the part of the directors of the exposition is carrying their race prejudices beyond all reason, and is but inviting financial disaster to the exposition. Already it is said that the Charleston exposition will prove the worst financial failure of any exposition that has been held in this country and if it be true that such placards are to be found on the grounds of that exposition then it is deserving of even a worse failure than it already has staring it in the face and that is saying a good deal. Those will be very inviting sign for President Roosevelt, who is soon to visit the expositions to look on and it will make him have most pleasant memories of his having entertained. President Booker T. Washington, a few weeks ago at a dinner party. Race antipathy, however pronounced, can be tolerated so long as it does not enter into business relations, but when such antipathy is indulged in to the financial and commercial detriment of the community then it becomes a public nuisance. The South's effort to continue a warfare on the Negro because he is a Negro is causing ruin and desolation to overspread every section of that country and it will be so until such has been completely abandoned Senator John W. Daniel of Virginia is quoted as having used the following language before the constitutional convention of his state: "It is distasteful to me to have to sign my name to any measure that would make any kind of a fraud possible in the administration of the law, but no other choice of weapons with which to fight to maintain the integrity of the white race and at the same time fulfill solemn party pledges. It is necessary to have a temporary understanding clause to prevent disqualifying illiterate white men of the present generation from exercising the right as other men the right of the ballot and yet the Negro must be disfranchised." Senator Daniel is taking the bull by the horns, vulgarly speaking and is offering this insult to the congressional investigation committee, which has decided to look into the disfranchising of the colored voters in the South. He believes that congress will take no action in this matter and throws down the gauntlet daring them to do so lest they plunge the country again into civil war. Recently congress decided that it had no knowledge of the fact that colored men were disfranchised in the South and a committee was appointed to look into the fact and report on the same. Let them examine Senator Daniel's recent speech before the constitutional convention of Virginia and perhaps they will have some knowledge of that fact. A colored editor of South Carolina is of the opinion that wealth is a racial protection, that is to say, if the colored man secures wealth it will be a protection to him against many of the abuses, trials and tribulations that he is compelled to undergo while trying to be a citizen of the United States. It must be admitted that wealth is quite an incentive to prompt protec- ge. PRICE FIVE CENTS More Tillmanism. Reasons For Disfranchising. Wealth An Elixir. Continued on 4th page.

General Funston says there is no more war in the Philippines than there is in Kentucky and this is why we suggest the increase of the standing army. If this country is not drifting into militarism it is coming pretty near it, as two-thirds of the appointments that have been made by President Roosevelt have been of a military nature. So keen is the government to keep up the military spirit that it is raising the ranks of men killed two and three years ago. According to a French statesman, France has accomplished much in Algeria, which is not doubted, for, if reports be true, France has caused to be killed in the neighborhood of 100,000 natives and for that wholesale slaughter of human beings she has a little sickly government up there worth only a few thousand dollars.

Washington is, and Seattle of Western Washington is the particular locality that should name the United States senator, which is to be elected by the next legislature. There are a number of good strong Republicans in King county that would make able and efficient senators, but, regardless of whom the Republicans of King county select for that place, the Pie-maker believes that he should be elected and let it be understood right here that The Seattle Republican is for a King county man, if it be possible to elect such man, and that, too, regardless of the fact of such man being unfavorable to the Pie-maker. King county is due a United States senator and she must have one, and the Republicans and the business men in general will serve notice on the balance of the state that they intend to have one either by fair or foul means. The election in Tacoma is over and the results are disastrous to the ambitions of Editor S. A. Perkins of the News and Ledger. Regardless of what the motives were that prompted Mr Perkins to turn his editorial batteries loose on Mayor Campbell they proved to be ineffective and in spite of him the mayor was re-elected in the City of Destiny. Along with Mayor Campbell a majority of the Republican ticket was also elected. Seven out of the eight councilmen were won by the Republican forces and they are exceedingly jubilant over the outcome of Tuesday's battle. In just what position from a political standpoint this leaves Editor Perkins remains to be seen, but with the only two daily papers in the county in his fist, it is surmised that he will make strenuous efforts to chastise the Republican party of that county for going contrary to his advice. SEATTLEDOM Continued from 1st page, and if not the mayor the mayor's supporters that Mr. Humes was completely mistaken, for they have closed gambling and will keep it closed until the gambiers agree to give them 20 per cent, and he gives it out cold-blooded that gambling will remain closed. Once and old lady prayed to the Lord to send her something to eat and she was overheard by a number of naughty boys who threw a sack of provisions in aer door as a joke, but they were chargined to hear the old lady cry out a few minutes later: "Thank you, Lord; it is all right if the devil did bring it." So with the gambling, the good citizens of Seattle are thankful that gambling has been closed for a period, even if the devil did cause it to be done. "If re-elected mayor, as in the past, I will be mayor of Seattle," was an expression Mr. Humes repeatedly made during the late campaign, but he evidently did not consult "his honor" Frank Clancy when he made the expression, and he has doubtless changed his mind since that time. The Sullivan Estate. New claimants have come forward to claim a half interest in the now famous Sullivan estate of this city. These claimants allege no relationship to Mr. Sullivan, but they had an ever-lasting regard for him and his property interests, and have always been more than interested in Mr. Sullivan's poor relations to an even greater degree than Mr. Sullivan himself. These new angels of peace are none other than the attorneys in the case, and they have already filed a deed for half of the estate, and will doubtless file a deed for the other half as soon as they can hear from the relatives in Ireland. When one dies and leaves a large estate for distribution it is remarkable of the great amount of love lawyers at once develop for the relatives of the deceased. For kind-heartedness, as well as goodness of purpose of all men, lawyers are to be commended. The Saloon Proposition If saloons be allowed to pay their licenses by the installment plan so far as the law operating against low dives be concerned, not a single point will have been gained by voting for the $1,000 license. If, again, the Liquor Dealers' Association succeed in having high license knocked in the courts, or if the association attempts it and fails, they will have done themselves and their association more harm than if they had submissively bowed to the will of a majority of the people. Lawbreakers do not make many friends by trying to break the law. High license was voted in this city more as a rebuke to slum saloons than for the actual money they would pay in the city treasury, and unless the saloons men heed the warning found in the last vote on the liquor question something worse might be the result.

The reception will be under the auspices of the Royal Social Club and, will be given in the Swedish Brothers' Hall. Mr. and Mrs. Philimore Vaughner gave a birthday dinner March 23 in honor of their little daughter Melba. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. John R. Fuller, Mrs. L. Roberts, Mrs. Davis, Miss R. Blue, Miss Louise Wright and Miss Minnie Brown. Easter services were held at the Bethel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. J. S. Payne is pastor. The choir rendered a number of selections especially arranged for the occasion. A program by the children was an interesting feature of the day's proceedings. Easter services were held in the Calvary Baptist Church of which Rev. J. B. Beckham is pastor. The choir rendered several selections and the children acquitted themselves very creditably. The decorations were elaborately as well as tastefully arranged. Monday, March 24th, Miss Alice Depp was shot at her home on South Howard Street by her divorced husband, Jacob Jones. She was removed to the Sacred Heart hospital and is at this writing in a most serious condition. Public sentiment runs very high against the cowardly act of the man Jones. He is now confined in the city jail. Every week The Seattle Republican is check full of good readable news. You are missing a good thing by not ordering it sent to your address at once. Let us hear from you on the subject. This paper publishes the good things the colored folk do the same as the bad things. The other papers of the state publish the bad things and overlook the good things. The Crispus Attucks Lodge Knights of Pythias has been reinstated and will soon have a public installation. The officers are: R. B. Cole, C. C.; John Johnson, V. C.; E. Petway, Prelate; J. P. Chew, Master of Works; Jas, Crawford, K. of R. S.; James H. Jordon, Master of Finance; Will Robinson, Master of Exchequer; Harry Brown, Master of Arms; Randall Williams, Inner Guard; D. A. Johnson, Outer Guard. The Easter services at the A. M. E. Church were rudely interfered with by one Fred Stewart, who, while the congregation was quietly awaiting the commencement of the program, entered the church and hastily walked up the aisle, stopping behind Fred Sharp, quickly made a slash at him with a razor, cutting him on the back of the neck. He then slashed once more and cut him across the face, thereby cutting his eye completely out. *Sharp* was seated by Mrs. Hattie Reed, who had presence of mind to place the eye back into the proper place. Sharp was removed to the Sacred Heart hospital and it was found necessary to remove the eye. He is doing nicely under the circumstances. Stewart, the assailant, escaped, but was caught, and is now confined to the city jail. Jealousy prompted the vicious attack. The A. M. E. Church gave a social last Monday evening which was a most enjoyable affair. ITEMS OF INTEREST The Dutch colonies of Java and Sumatra during 1890 furnished Germany with 57,173 tons of raw tobacco, valued at $21,420,000. In England it is estimated that 50,000 persons annually die of tuberculosis, while 150,000 annually die of the same disease in France. The ships of the world carry 180,000,000 tons of merchandise annually and of this one-fourth, by weight, is coal, and one-tenth wheat. In 1875 there were 132 steam and 317 sailing vessels built in the United Kingdom. Last year 423 steam and 29 sailing vessels were built. After years of careful observation an English scientist has arrived at the conclusion that the men of that country are gradually growing much taller. Savings bank deposits in this country are now the largest in the world, reaching $2,310,660,000. These deposits have doubled in about fifteen years. Germany has the next largest.

PERSONAL Miss Cousins is tending store for Mr. I. N. Norris. Mrs. Keeleb of Tacoma spent last Sunday with friends in the Queen City. Miss Ethel Butler of Tacoma was a visitor to the city the most of the past week. A specialist in optics is in charge of Goldman's Optical Department, 901 Second Avenue. Frank Abrams, a well known citizen, has disposed of his property on Twenty-fourth Avenue. Mrs. Myrtle Case of Buckley spent Easter week visiting with her sister, a well known Seattle stenographer. If your eyesight is poor you should consult G. M. Rigden, graduate optician, 1221 First Avenue. Examination free. ** Two nicely furnished rooms for rent to the right person or persons at 1223 Seventh avenue. Modern conveniences, no car fare. A pleasing program was rendered by the members of the A. M. E. Sunday School Easter Sunday. A packed house listened to the exercises. It is very gratifying to note that more persons of color have gotten homes of their own during the past ten months in Seattle than for the past ten years. Those persons organizing the Douglas Club selected a most excellent name for the organization and the published purposes of the club are equally commendable. Mrs. Badie, formerly of this city, writes from Dawson City to the effect that unionism is becoming so strong in that section of the country that it is almost impossible for persons of color to get employment of any kind there. An April Fool party was enjoyed by a number of well known ladies and gentlemen at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. John T. Gayton last Tuesday evening. After enjoying games until a late hour the host and hostess served refreshments. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. P. A. DeBoe, Mr. and Mrs. S. Thorne, Mr. and Mrs. John Robinson, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Hawkins, Mr. and Mrs. F. N. Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Frank T. Anderson, Miss Ida Hill and Mr. John Fort. Rev. J. Gordon McPherson will preach his introductory sermon Sunday, April 6th, at the Mount Zion Baptist Church, and will then take full charge of the work as regular pastor. An informal reception will be given him Wednesday evening, April 9th, by the members and friends of the church at which a literary and musical program will be rendered and you are cordially invited to be present without charge or cost. In another column will be found an interesting letter telling of the happenings in Spokane from the pen of Miss Minnie Brown, a popular young lady of that city. The readers of The Republican can look for many such contributions from the same source, in fact a weekly letter will be published from Spokane. The Seattle Republican has a large circulation in the "City by the Falls" and plans are now being matured to increase its circulation over the entire state, hence making it of general interest to all of its readers. Friday evening, March 28, 1902, at 8:30 p. m. the following young people: Miss M. mable Dixon, Miss Carrie Dixon, Miss Georgia Selby, Miss Daisy O'Brien, Miss Maggie O'Brien, Miss Hazel Thompson, Miss Alma Clarke, Mr. Byron Clarke, Mr. John Nelson, Mr. Ernest Morton, Mr. Will Harris and Mr. John Fort went in a body to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. John T Gayton on Eighth Avenue and spent a most pleasant evening. Games and music were the chief amusements of the evening. At 11 o'clock refreshments were served by the host and hostess. Two ghastly attempts at murder were committed in Spokane the past week. The first was the attempt of Jake Jones, a burly brute, to kill his former wife. The second a half witted fellow named Stewart to kill Fred Sharp, formerly of Tacoma. The latter trouble was jealousy over Mrs. Reed, formerly of Seattle. She will be remembered as conducting an employment bureau in this city at one time in conjunction with her husband. Fred Sharp is well known in Tacoma, where he lived for many years, and will have the sympathy of all who know him. As for Stewart, he should have been in an asylum several years ago, but as he prefers the penitentiary everybody will be satisfied. It is to be regretted that such things should happen, as it reflects on all of the good citizens of Spokane. AMUSEMENTS Ostler Joe.

Regular Readable Reliable Republican That's The Seattle Republican Theatre have a treat in store for them in the strong English drama "Oster Joe." The play is founded on George R. Sim's poem, made famous by Mrs. James Brown Potter. This play has won the sincere admiration of every one that has had the good fortune to see it. It tells a story so true to human nature, and the tragic moments that come to the life of so many that it goes straight home to every heart. The company of which Mr. John B. Hymer and Miss Lucile York are the "top liners" is one of the strongest on the road, necessarily, as the requirements of the piece are tremendous and exacting. The scenery is the most elaborate carried by any company and the costing is lavish to extravagance. Manager William A. Brady's production of Lottie Blair Parker's play "Way Down East" will be given at the Grand for one week beginning Sunday night. This is the same great play that for several months crowded the Manhattan Theatre and the Academy of Music, New York, 427 times. It will be given in this city with a splendid cast, elaborate scenery and effects, with every attention to detail that tended to make its metropolitan engagement so noticeable. The play is a splendid play of New England life, full of sentiment, and that peculiar appealing quality which strikes home to every heart. It is called a story of plain people, and they are plain everyday characters engaged in the homely pursuits of domesticity, but the series of events which are unfolded in the course of the play are of a deep dramatic interest, enhanced by the simplicity and naturalness of their telling. The best of critics pronounce it a superior play to "The Old Homestead," or "Shore Acres." And wherever it has been presented scores of letters from clergymen, school teachers, and others have been received telling of their delight at the story that it so aptly teaches. The dialogue is stirring, the wit and the humor bright, and the love scenes defy arranged. tion, but it does not always do it, because no race of people on the earth, according to their numbers, has greater wealth than the Jewish race, and yet they sometimes meet with as much opposition as does the Negro. Many of the leading hotels in New York and watering places along the Atlantic coast absolutely refuse to entertain Jews and they often turn away Jews worth their millions, showing very conclusively that wealth is not always a protection to a weaker race against insults from a stronger race. Wealth, however, freely mingled with education, refinement and good citizenship will do a great deal toward protecting any weaker race of people --- --- Tel. Main 305 "Way Down East."

TusRegee in Africa The Booker Washington school is bearing splendid fruits just now in the way of furnishing expert cotton raisers for the German government to operate in Africa, where there is a large German colony established which is using the natives as field laborers. For the past year some eight of Tuskegee's best graduates have been in that country in such a capacity, and their success there has been almost phenomenal. Recently five others from the school passed through New York en route to Africa and more are wanted. These men go as experts and their wages are paid by the German government, which is higher pay three times over than any wages they could get in this country. To the man or woman, whether he be white, black, grizzled or gray, who will perfect himself in some kind of a profession there is always room for him at the top. When you will have learned to do something better than anyone else can do it there will always be plenty of demands and calls for your services. The Negro, who went to Tuskegee and became thoroughly conversant with cotton raising on a high industrial order, not knowing that there was a field beyond his own community in which he could operate, now in the employ of the government of Germany at almost fabulous prices, and yet there is need for more. Such must be proof sufficient to the others in the South that it is their duty to do their very best at whatever they undertake and become proficient in at least one thing if they hope for future success. Legislature Was Liberal The colored folk of the state of Kentucky are rejoicing over the fact that the legislature of that state recently passed a bill appropriating $15,000 for a new dormitory for the state normal school for colored folk and $5,000 annually for the maintenance of the school. In comparison with the amounts appropriated by Northern states for similar institutions of learning this is a very small sum, but in comparison with what has been appropriated by the state of Kentucky for this school, it is an enormous sum and the colored folks of that state have reasons to congratulate themselves on being so favorably remembered by the legislature. It is quite true that $5,000 would not do very much toward maintaining a normal school in any of the Northern states, but considering the cheapness of living in that state it will be a great incentive for those having charge of the state normal at Lexington to build up a strong institution and if they will take advantage of the small sum appropriated for that purpose and build up a creditable school perhaps in the very near future five times and even ten times that amount will be appropriated by a subsequent legislature. Begin at Home. The Colored American, published in Washington, D. C., editorially remarks: "We have some bright young men who would be a success if they would be as honest as they are smart." Present company, according to the rule, is always excepted, and for that reason the remark does not include the editor of the American. There is no denying the fact that he is a rather smart editor, but if what some of the newspapers in the Eastern states say about him is to be believed, he is not very scrupulous as to some of his transactions, and he might learn a lesson from his own editorial. Are Ready for Business "Yes," said Dr. Samuel Burdett, president of the International Council of the World, whose offices are in the New York block. "our association has just completed its arrangements to float its bonds on its land proposition, which has for its object the irrigation and cultivation of a large tract of land. The production of the sugar beet will be one of the chief articles of cultivation on our lands. The company will not leave a stone unturned to settle as many colored families on those lands as possible. I believe Eastern Washington offers better and more inducements for the industrious and thrifty Negro than any other section of this country, and it is our object to assist them in taking advantage of those opportunities and inducements. You can say our association, which is duly incorporated under the state laws, is now open and ready for business." There was enough petroleum produced in the United States last year if placed in barrels and the barrels set by the side of each other to encircle the entire globe. Christain C. Nelson was recently convicted of bigamy in the state of Missouri, and it was shown that he had at different times married twelve different women, all of whom are still living.
