Seattle Republican

The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT PIE. --- VOL. VIII. NO. 47 "The rivalry between Tacoma and Seattle which has been so strong here tofore is fast disappearing and both cities will soon be working in harmony," said a prominent Republican of the City of Destiny. "The rank and file of Tacoma hold no illwill towards Seattle. They realize that all of our commercial interests are along the same line. Any thing that benefits the one or the other is of general good to the entire community. There must be chief distributing points in the commercial world—these points have grown until they have outstripped all the surrounding towns for miles—look at Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha, St. Paul, Denver, Salt Lake and San Francisco. The country towns round these great business centers are dependent entirely upon these cities for supplies of all kinds. There has grown up a close friendship between them and the smaller towns look to the larger for advice as does a younger brother to his senior. This state of affairs will surely come here, geographical conditions have divided the state into two distinct parts—East and West of the mountains. Our products and climates are widely different. They East of the mountains are in an inland empire to themselves and West of the mountains is a great inland sea with countless harbors able to accommodate the entire commerce of the Pacific Coast for a million years to come, and Puget Sound is destined to be the great distributing point to the Orient. Why then should we not join interest and work together and build up the Sound Cities and compete with Portland and San Francisco for the Oriental trade. A few ambitious politicians are keeping the two cities apart and doing all in their power to array the one against the other. It does not require but a simple problem in addition to prove that with Pierce and King Counties united in a State Convention or in the State Legislature that they can control absolutely the distribution of all State and Federal offices. The business men's excursions from Seattle, Tacoma and Everett are bearing fruit, the business men are getting more closely associated. A friendship is springing up between them, the smaller towns feel that the larger are interested in them and glad to see their prosperity—and when you go to a convention you will find the great West and the Southwest (except such as is immediately tributary to Portland) following and advocating the wishes of Tacoma and Seattle. Let us encourage this. Let Seattle have the next Senator and in turn let Seattle elect a senator from Tacoma next time, and in this way hand in hand go to victory politically and as a result to great commercial development. We must remember that water is a great highway free to all and that requires no repair. The Columbia River cannot be changed and 75 per cent of the wheat raised east of the mountains naturally goes to Portland, all the towns of Southern Washington are closely associated in every way with Portland, and their interests will ever be in that direction, and we Sound people must expect that portion of the state to be more interested and friendly to Portland than any portion of this state. It is safe to say not a wholesale house in Tacoma or Seattle has a drummer in that section or attempting to get that district's trade. If Oregon has a seaport it is Portland and Oregon senators are bound to work for her interests. So are California senators going to work for 'Frisco. Any senator elected from the Columbia River Basin will be friendly to his immediate section and anything that benefits the Columbia River builds up Portland to the injury of Seattle. We must encourage the building of railroads to Puget Sound. We want every transcontinental line that we can get. We want to be the distributing point to all the country west of Chicago and the outlet of all that section's products to the Orient. Let us build up the Sound—Portland and San Francisco are our rivals. The gold discoveries of 1849 gave the latter a great advantage, but nature is against the place, and already our naval station at Bremerton is recognized as superior to Mare Island. The Columbia river bar is a menace to navigation, and you may dredge and dredge, but its like sticking a lead pencil in a glass of water, when you remove the pencil the hole fills up, so it will be with the drifting quick sands of the Columbia. Let the Sound country get together—bury sectional prejudices work to a common end—eliminate politicians who are scheming only for their own gain or political preferment; get men of brains, men who are interested in the welfare of the Sound and the building up of a great Oriental trade and the development of our latent resources. Then and not until then, can harmony prevail. WORK TOGETHER. . . . The appointment of Clarence W. Ide was not confirmed last Thursday, as was expected, and on that day Senator Foster telegraphed to Tacoma asking the politicians of that city to name some one more acceptable than Ide to them for collector of customs at Port Townsend. No explanation was attached to this telegram, and those receiving it were at a loss to know what had happened, and are still in the same condition; but, believing that the senator knew what he was talking about, telegraphed back to him that either S. A. Madge, of Olympia, Fred C. Harper, of Seattle, or W. A. Fairweather, of Tacoma, would be acceptable to them, and here the matter rests, as nothing has been heard from either side since that time. *** In reply to a question over the 'phone as to what condition his case was in, Mr. Ide replied: "I am perfectly satisfied and feel absolutely certain that I will be confirmed, though the Foster people are holding up the matter longer than I had expected." At present John L. Wilson is in Washington City, and it is surmised he is making a desperate fight to save Ide, and Wilson's friends in this state believe that he will succeed, though they have no reasons for so believing further than the ability he has shown in the past of pulling the wires at Washington City in his own behalf. While Mr. Wilson has been an ardent supporter of Mr. Ide's for collector of customs, his fight was mainly to prevent the appointment of B.D. Crocker, of Walla Walla. In this he has been eminently successful. Mr. Crocker, like others in this state, had The Hartline Standard is the name of a new paper that has been started in Douglas county under the time-worn banner of "a long-felt want," with Spring & Bassett as its proprietors. The initial number announces, "This paper was built from the ground up and printed complete in thirty-six hours." It is learned from the Saturday Record of Walla Walla that "the red squirrel pest is a source of much concern to the residents of the foothills, and it asks that the county commissioner of Walla Walla and Umatilla counties place a bounty on the squirrels' scalps. A bounty of a small sum placed on any kind of pest generally causes their extermination. We would not be surpassed to learn that the editor of the Statesman-Index of Colville will be a candidate for some kind of an office before the next convention to be held in that county, and this is predicted on account of the Index making use of the following language in its last issue: "It is to the Republican party the state of Washington must look for any legislation remedying railroad abuses." Fighting railroads is a hobby that Eastern Washington politicians have of getting into office here of late, and perhaps the editor of the Index has an office in view which prompts the above remark. Evidently the citizens of Goldendale do not believe there is anything in a name, for from the Rosalia Citizen it is learned that the people of Goldendale have nominated and elected a man for mayor whose name is Bonebrake. Inasmuch as no one has heard of any bones being broken over in Goldendale since the new mayor has taken office his name must be a misnomer. Notwithstanding the fact that the Clarkston Republican put in a bid for the county printing of Asotin county for just one-half of that bid by the Sentinel, nevertheless the Sentinel was given the contract by the county commissioners, and now the Republican is wondering how it all happened. The Republican has the right to make complaint under such circumstances, because the law specifically says the contract shall be let to the lowest and best bidder, and so long as one has a newspaper of gen SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, APRIL 18.1902 turned his back on Wilson after he had befriended him, so says Mr. Wilson, and he did not propose that either Crocker or anyone else should succeed at his expense. Mr. Wilson has another fight in this state of a similar nature, and it is against Jesse Fry, of Whatcom, who wants to be United States district attorney. He has been promised this place by Senator Foster, but thus far the senator has been wholly unable to land his man. While John L. Wilson was very friendly to W. R. Gay, nevertheless he made no strong fight to maintain him in office, but he did make a fight to prevent Fry from being appointed, and, as already said, has succeeded very well. The fight that Wilson has against Fry is too well known to the politicians of the state to be repeated in this connection, and it is only referred to to more fully explain the Ide controversy. Mr. Gay has withdrawn from the fight for district attorney, but he did not withdraw until the president flatly informed Mr. Foster that Mr. Fry would not be appointed. The political controversy between the two warring factions of this state forebodes no good for the party, and unless some steps can be taken whereby it can be eliminated the Democratic party is going to rule the state by an overwhelming majority. "I am unable to explain just why there is such a mad scramble for the various legislative nominations," came from a well known politician one day this week. "I was reading an article in the 'Political Pot-pie' not long since about these nominations, and I began to cast about to find out how much truth there was in it, and to my surprise I learned that in every legislative district there were all the way from a dozen to two dozen candidates for state senator and equally as many for the members of the lower house. Good men, bad men, worthless men, and, in some instances, no men at all, were all candidates for state senator. I found that there were even more candidates for state senator than there were for the two members of the lower house in the same district, and Continued on 2d page. eral circulation and reliable there is no reason why, if he underbids the other fellow, that he should not get the contract to do the county printing, and if the loser in such case will take the matter into the courts he will be winner in the end. It may be tough on an editor to not allow his editorial rubbish to be barred on on account of "pay stuff," as complains the Chehalis Bee-Nugget, but judging from the editorials that have appeared in the Bee-Nugget in the past it is a blessing in disguise to the readers of that paper that the editorial stuff was crowded out, even though its place was filled with "pay stuff." The Newport Miner thinks that James Hill should call his railroad the "future route," and he thinks this should be done because of the fact that so many accidents occur on Mr. Hill's road between Seattle and St. Paul; in other words, the Miner attempts to slur the Great Northern. Evidently the Miner was not among the list of newspapers that got a thousand-mile ticket this year, and that is the way it has in showing its displeasure for not being so included; in other words, it is a case of sour grapes pure and simple. Lands near Ellensburg, so says the Capital of that city, recently sold for over $80 per acre, and it further says that "it was no better land, barring its close proximity to the town, than thousands of acres under the proposed canal, which fact is the best argument in favor of hurrying the big ditch to completion." There is no doubt but that as soon as water is successfully placed on any of the lands of Eastern Washington that they at once become Gardens of Eden, and this is not only true of Eastern Washington, but all of the Western country. The Cascade Miner of Roslyn suggests to the councilmen of that city, "Let us clean up." That would not be a bid idea for Roslyn, because in its present condition it has plenty of room for improvement, and the same is doubtless true of a good many other little towns of this state, and even some of the big towns, though not so much so as the smaller ones, but cleaning up on the part of municipalities should be the watchword before the hot weather comes on and breeds sickness. SEATTLEDOM Carnes Not Dead. City Lighting Plant. The members of the city council for the past week have been looking over the headquarters of Cedar river with the view of beginning the work of building a municipal lighting plant in accordance to the wishes of the people expressed at the last election when a vote on this question was taken. Just when the city will realize the actual existence of a municipal lighting plant is a question not easily answered, even by the members of the city council. Whether the present city council will push this plant to immediate erection or not remains to be seen, but there is no doubt of the fact that at some time in the distant future Seattle will own its own electric light plant, and the same will be doing the work that is being done by the Seattle Electric Company at present. This new plant will not only be able to furnish light for the streets of Seattle, but it can furnish light and power even for commercial purposes, and there is no doubt but that it will undertake to do so. Some one has said "it never rains but what it pours," and this seems to be quite true of Seattle and her electric light and power facilities at the present time. Just a few years ago and Seattle only had enough electric light power and facilities to run a few elevators and street cars, but now she has already two gigantic electric light plants at her command, two smaller ones in operation, and fair prospects of a municipal lighting plant with sufficient capacity to almost supply all the wants of the city in this direction being soon in operation. From no electric light accommodations the city gets an oversupply of them. Now, if competition is the life of trade, darkness ought to disappear from our city almost completely. More Electrocutions. Seattle has no electric chair in which her malefactors are shocked to death, nevertheless here of late quite a few persons have been electrocuted in Seattle. True enough they are electrocuted only by accident, but after they have been electrocuted what is the difference to the person whether it was done by accident or design? It was but a couple of weeks ago that a man was electrocuted on the streets for his persistency in handling a live wire, and now comes the report of one Oxender who was electrocuted while repairing one of the wires for the Electric Company. Of course the Electric Company is not at fault in this, nor was the Electric Company at fault in the other electrocution that happened the other day, and yet there are many persons in the city who are willing to condemn the company for the deaths of both of these men, and for no other reason than because it is a big company, and such persons think that it an easy way for somebody to filch a good round sum of money from the company. "Uneasy lies the head that wears a policeman's hat" these days, or such would seem so to appear. Since the last issue of this paper Patrolman Barr has been charged with abusing a prisoner, had his trial and exonerated by the civil service board, and evidently quite deservedly so. However, as was said in the columns of The Republican some time ago, it is very remarkable that the policemen of this city are always mixed up in some kind of an embroglio in which some citizen charges them with brutal treatment. The same condition of affairs do not prevail in other cities that have been visited by the writer, and it therefore puzzles him to know why such should always be brought up against policemen of this city. Of course the civil service board is compelled to exonerate the policemen, because if it found all of them guilty against whom charges are made the city would be practically without police protection. It does seem that the policemen in the future would so conduct themselves as to not always be on the anxious seat on account of charges preferred against them for their misbehavior toward the citizens. If it continues somebody is going to get tired of filing charges and instead fire charges. Seattle has a brand new little baby sister, who was just born last Tuesday, whose home is across Elliott Bay, and who has been christened as West Seattle. On last Tuesday the two hundred and odd citizens living across the bay, in what has been known as the West Seattle suburbs, decided to throw off their swaddling clothes and become a real thing, and they therefore voted for incorporation and at the same time electing a full roster of municipal officers; mayor, treasurer and five councilmen. Quite a war of words as well as legal contention has Continued on 2d page. Another Southern Brute. From an exchange it is learned that the district attorney at Atlanta, Geor gia, while conducting a trial there recently, felt called upon to use the following very vulgar language: "Here we have the picture of nigger lawyers parading in front of you with their attempts to belittle the char acter of white men. A nigger has no right—even if he is a lawyer—to attack these white men's characters. If this report be true, and it is not doubted, then The Republican is of the opinion that not only the district attorney should be removed from of fice, but the judge as well, because PASSING EVENTS * When Cecil Rhodes, the uncrowned king of South Africa, was convinced that death was upon his he murmured because he was called upon to pass over to the great beyond when he had so much laid out in this world to yet accomplish. Generally speaking, such persons are selfish in their plans, and what they have mapped out to accomplish is more for their own self-aggrandizement than for the good of humanity, but this did not seem to be the case with Cecil Rhodes. While he may have still hoped to be king of South Africa, yet from the will that he left it is very evident that he had many things for the benefit of humanity that he wished to accomplish before dying. Perhaps no wealthy man has ever died and made such a general distribution of his wealth as did Cecil Rhodes, and while it was, for the most part, for the aggrandizement of the government of which he was a member, yet, on the whole, it can be said without fear of successful contradiction that everything found in his will was for the good of humanity in general. Rather remarkable, too, that he should have been so liberal with his poor relations, even extending into America, where a nephew of his who was doing janitor work in one of the large Eastern cities was left $50,000. While his idea of bringing the United States into closer relations with England by giving free scholarships to Oxford to a large number of students from both America and Germany is not taken very kindly, too, by many of the American people, yet it was a philanthropic donation and should not only be appreciated but taken advantage of by every state and territory in the Union. It can do no harm, and when a thing can't do any harm it must do some good. It will be news to a great many persons of this country to learn that the United States expends $3,000,000 annually on its national homes for disabled volunteer soldiers and $206,000 annually on the national homes for disabled regular soldiers. At present there are 27,000 disabled soldiers in the volunteer homes and 1,226 in the home for regulars. There are also, in addition to these,-national soldiers' homes at Washington; Hampton, Virginia; Dayton, Ohio; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Togus, Maine; Marion, Indiana; Leavenworth, Kansas; Danville. Police Have Troubles. Our Little Sister. Rhodes and His Will. Our Old Soldiers. AFRO - AMERICANISM ```markdown ``` Kansas Speaks First. A recent Republican convention in Kansas adopted the following resolution: "Resolved, That we oppose the confirmation by the United States senate of any man to a Federal position who has been guilty of burning or assisting in the lynching or burning of human beings." This resolution was passed at the instigation of the colored delegates in the convention, and was a slap at President Roosevelt for appointing one George R. Koester of South Carolina, who is charged with being a lyncher and a leader of the shotgun policy against the colored people of that state, and yet he was appointed as internal revenue collector by the president. He has not been confirmed as yet, and the colored folk of the various states, and especially the North, are making a united effort to prevent him from being, and it is believed that they will be successful. They have also sent out petitions to the leading colored men of the North asking that they get them signed by a long list of colored folk and forward the same to their senators, hoping to bring some influence to bear in this way against this confirmation, and it promises to prove effective. Another Southern Brute. From an exchange it is learned that the district attorney at Atlanta, Georgia, while conducting a trial there recently, felt called upon to use the following very vulgar language: "Here we have the picture of nigger lawyers parading in front of you with their attempts to belittle the character of white men. A nigger has no right—even if he is a lawyer—to attack these white men's characters." If this report be true, and it is not doubted, then The Republican is of the opinion that not only the district attorney should be removed from of office, but the judge as well, because Illinois; Santa Monica, California, and Johnston City, Tennessee, making a grand total of 40,000 soldiers that are being forced for by the national and state governments. At the close of the war there were 272,583 soldiers on the lists of wounded. Over 200,000 other soldiers have been discharged on account of disability from various diseases. It is generally thought that seventy-five percent, of the latter recovered and fully fifty per cent. of the wounded entered into the activities of civil life. From the above it will be clearly seen that the United States government has dealt most liberally with those of her citizens who were disabled in the civil war, and is likewise dealing equally liberal with those of the Spanish war, as well as with the wounded and disabled among the regular troops. No country in the world has been so liberal with its soldiers, both by pensioning and care, as has the United States government. A Kansas editor having asserted that young women were usurping the industrial situation, working for less wages and being more disinclined to marriage, a girl reader of his paper fires it back at him that a girl can afford to work for less wages than a young man, because she has no whisky or tobacco bills to pay; no barber bills, no shines, no big laundry bills, no pants to crease, no hacks, flowers, suppers, candies and the like to pay for. "The average girl prefers a good bank account and freedom to a poor husband; and are not at all disconsolate," she concludes.

Recently Colonel John McKee died in Philadelphia, Pa., and left an estate valued at $1,500,000. Colonel McKee was a colored man and laid the foundation for his fortune doing catering work in many of the Northern cities. Later in life he engaged in the real estate business and his investments proved successful, and at the ripe old age of eight and one summers he died leaving a fortune as said above. During his life he was an ardent and enthusiastic Presbyterian in religious belief, but his will discloses the fact that he had placed every dollar of his property and monies at the disposal of the Roman Catholic Church, even to the disinheriting of his two children. What could have prompted a rock-ribbed Presbyterian to have willed his entire estate to the Roman Catholic Church and leaving his children without any part or parcel of the same has been a nine days' wonder in the City of Brotherly Love since the will has been before the courts. Already the heirs have taken steps to break the will, and it is thought that they have grounds sufficient to accomplish their purpose, as the Colonel must have been out of his right mind when he made and executed such a document. The little republic of Hayti has been experiencing another of its periodical revolutions, and grave apprehensions are entertained lest the government be overthrown and the revolutionists get charge of the capitol and the machinery of the law. Hayti is no exception to the rule as to revolutions in South America, as all of these governments have their periodical revolutions and are always in a semi-revolutionary condition. Just why those little governments cannot live peaceably among themselves instead of exhausting their strength and vitality on each other in mortal combat is a puzzling question, and especially to those living in stable governments, where revolutions are almost unknown. Of course it is natural for the people of the United States and for the most of Europe to censure most severely the Haytian government because it is made up largely of descendants of African blood, but as a matter of fact Hayti has no more revolutions than any other of those would-be South American republics. The new Cuban government is still being discussed in the United States congress, and though it has been given out that an independent government would be set afloat in Cuba about May 20th, still nothing definite has been reached by Uncle Sam's agents as to the exact form of government that will be launched on that day, if any at all. Cuba is one of those insular possessions that periodically indulges in a slight revolution, which results in a vast number of persons being slain and driven from the island because they belong to a contending and opposite faction who want to get control of the government, and if they cannot get it by fair means they get it by foul. Though Cuba may have some kind of a government, yet it is hoped that the island will ultimately ask admission to the United States and eventually be admitted as one of CHARTER OIL CO.

Seattle's last week assembly ball meet developed nothing new in comparison with its former roster of invited guests. No one is better aware of the fact now than Senator Jones himself as to what actually did "happen to Jones" of Arkansas. It would seem that spring would grow tired of winter lingering in her lap, and give her a hot old time as a move on remedy. Peace may be in sight in South Africa, but we fear it will only be in hand when the British will have exterminated the Boers. Uncle Sam is only administering reciprocity to little "Miss Cuby" in teaspoonful doses for fear larger doses might make her sick. Writing a book seems to be the only way some persons have of getting even for the public's disapproval of themselves for failure at other things. That E. P. Edsen baby evidently had his father at a Republican convention on the brain, which accounts for his massiveness on making his first appearance in this world. "Spring fever" may be a disease wholly unknown to Western Washington, but the mining fever more than fills its place, and already that fever is an epidemic in this section. --- From a local exchange it is learned that the "blind pigs must go," and evidently they take this as a cue and are going their way rejoicing fattening and flourishing at the expense of others. He or she who has never been married is, in our opinion, darn poor judges as to whether marriage is or is not a failure. Marriage is certainly a failure with them because they have failed to get married. Mrs. McKinley has been granted a pension of $5,000 a year, not, perhaps, because she needed the money, but to keep up a well established custom for the pensioning of widows of presidents who die in the White House. Rag-time music is said to be rapidly waning, and we do not doubt it; but, waning though it be, still when an orchestra strikes up one of the popular rag-time airs somehow or other you can't sit still, so you get up and shout. "He never is alone that is accompanied by noble thoughts," says the Seattle Union Record. Then if you have no other associates in life you are doomed as an outcast and a recluse, as noble thoughts are foreign to your general make-up. Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage's death is one that will be regretted the world over. While he was but three score and ten years of age, his death, until a short time before his passing, was hardly expected. No abler divine ever filled a pulpit than M. Talmage. And now the ladies are to be dressed "mode" (mo-day) instead of full dress, up-to-date, etc. If their mode costumes are to expose any more of their persons than their former costumes, then what's the use of calling it a dress at all. If the Republican party does not believe South Carolina hoodlums are still true to Tillman, then let it have Senator MacLaurin resign and stand for re-election against the old Tillmanic beast, and it will see MacLaurin turned down two to one in his native state. "Can a newspaper editor be an honest man?" is going the rounds of the press at present. In our opinion a newspaper editor can be a very honest man, but perhaps he is honest because he never gets an opportunity to be otherwise; nevertheless he is, and there you are. From the wholesale complaints being registered about the inadequacy of the school houses to maintain all of the children wishing to attend school throughout this country, the charge that American women are struggling to become childless seems to be without foundation. Senator Foster has again displayed his weakness at the national capital in endeavoring to defeat the confirmation of C. W. Ide for collector of customs at Port Townsend. The senator has learned, much to his regret, that it is one thing to threaten to do a thing and another thing to do it. It is going the rounds of the press just now that a political mass meeting down South was opened with prayer and the Lord was then excused from further attendance, which, we surmise, was done on account of the extreme heat that attends such gatherings in the Southern states. Whether Senator Turner did or did not wifily dodge voting on the "oleo" bill The Republican is not prepared to say, but it is prepared to say that the big creamery operators in Eastern Washington won't do a thing to him when they get a chance to vote at another election in which he is politically interested. Senator Quay, when he was re-elected, gave it out that he was out of politics, but recent developments show that he is as much in the political swim now as he was years ago. His opposition to Elkins for governor and the success of the same plainly shows that Quay holds the key to the situation in Pennsylvania. If the New York Democrats bury the hatchet and do not resurrect it again before time to hold the next state convention, they will do different from any other Democrats in the United States. Democrats always bury the hatchet, but they are careful to not bury it deep enough but that they can get their hands on it without much trouble. Maggio, the Albuquerque actor, who predicted the assassination of President McKinley, and who was subsequently arrested, has recently been released from jail and his case dismissed. If Maggio's prediction was the results of his clairvoyancy, then we predict that he will not predict again soon, especially about the death of a president. --- The physicians who attended President McKinley at the time of his assassination were paid $25,000 for their services by Congress, which, it is claimed, was an enormous bill, and this is not doubted, but you should not overlook the fact that the government is paying for it, and it is always the duty of every good (?) American citizen to filch the government out of just as much as they possibly can do. Already the Northwestern University, located in Evanston, near Chicago, is almost grousing under its load of golden globules poured upon it by Rockefeller, but it has to bear equally as hard a burden, as William Deering has just made the university a donation of $1,000,000. It never rains but it pours, and the Northwestern University can verily testify as to that from a financial standpoint. POLITICAL POT PIE. Continued from 1st page. since members of the state senate only get $300 a term, I am at a loss to know why on earth there is such a mad scramble for the place if these aspirants expect to be honest men when they get elected to the legislature. There is more money and scheming used in these political controversies than the legislature will appropriate as salaries for the entire body. If a man is only to get $300 for his services, just how he can afford to expend from $500 to $600 to get the place is more than I can see, and especially when such a man is a poor man." --- According to an item in a local paper, J. H. Schively has announced himself as candidate for the Republican nomination for congress hailing from Seattle. There is no doubt but that Mr. Schively would like to have the place, and there is no doubt but that if he should get it he would fill it very creditably, but the Ple-maker doubts very seriously of him ever being able to reach the mark. . . . Another candidate who promises to make a hard fight for a congressional nomination is Hon. A. J. Falknor, of Thurston county. Mr. Falknor was candidate for the same position two years ago, and not being able to muster up sufficient strength his name was not presented at the state convention, and unless the Pie-maker is mistaken this will be the result at the coming convention, because Mr. Cushman still seems to have the push with him in the Southwest. According to an Olympia paper, N. B. Coffman of Lewis county and J. B. Bridges of Chehalis are also strong Southwestern candidates for one of the nominations to the lower house of congress. . . . Here is some of the patronage that Governor McBride has at his command to use for political purposes in shaping up his coming political machine for this state: Eighty-four employees for the Western Washington Hospital, who draw a salary of $3,724.51 per month, which for the year foots up in the neighborhood of $15,000. There are forty-eight employees at the Eastern Washington Asylum, located at Medical Lake, and the monthly payroll of that institution amounts to $2,187.44, or in the neighborhood of $26,000 annually. At the state penitentiary are thirty-two employees, and the monthly pay-roll amounts to $1,766.70, which foots up to a little over $20,000 annually. The pay-roll of the state reform school amounts to $655 per month, which figures up in the course of a year to about $8,000. The state school for Defective Youth at Vancouver has a pay-roll of $1,480 per month, or about $18,000 per year. The Soldiers' Home at Orting has thirty-six employees, who draw monthly $444.17, while there are twenty-seven other employees who draw more or less small salaries, which amount to $1,080 per month, or $12,000 per year. The expenditure of this vast sum of money, which amounts all told to about $150,000, be- ides other lesser appointments scattered throughout the state will tell an awful tale at the next state convention. With these the governor has a powerful weapon in his hands to use against his political opponents.

Continued from 1st page. been going on between the two factions in West Seattle whether they would or would not incorporate, and while the results of the election was quite close, yet they were quite decisive, and the incorporating idea prevailed by a handsome majority. At present there is still to be fought a legal battel in the courts over this matter, and those opposed to incorporation still believe that they will be successful in knocking it out either in the superior court or the supreme court, but for the present the little city will take on metropolitan airs and direct its own affairs without the aid or assistance of the county commissioners. With the view of West Seattle incorporating the gamblers of this city, who have been at war with each other for a number of weeks, favored the incorporation idea because they hoped to establish in West Seattle a Monte Carlo where gambling would flourish every day in the week and every week in the year. It is said that the gamblers furnished considerable money to those advocating the incorporating ideas with this view, but no sooner was the matter settled beyond a question of doubt than the newly elected officers gave it out cold that the "wide open policy," which fostered gambling on the wholesale, would not be allowed in the new town. This was an awful setback to the gamblers, and it would seem that they are still at sea without sail or rudder and with nothing in sight to which they can tie their frail craft; and it doth appear that even the gamblers have troubles of their own.

Mrs. Susie Revels Cayton, associate editor of the Seattle Republican, has returned from an extended visit in the East covering a period of four months. During Mrs. Cayton's absence she visited Chicago and from there she went to New Orleans, where she attended the Madri Gras festivities. After visiting in that city for a number of weeks she returned to her old home in Holly Springs, Mississippi, where she visited with friends for a couple of weeks. From there she went to Crawfordsville, Indiana, and from there back to Chicago. From Chicago she visited Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and she was the guest of the large Indian school at that place. She was very favorably impressed with the school in fact thinks it one of the grandest industrial institutions that she has ever visited. After spending a couple of days among the teachers and pupils at Carlisle she left for Seattle, arriving here last Sunday evening. This office is in receipt of a letter from J. W. Riggs at Dawson City under date of March 23, 1902, which gives a brief account of the doings of the colored colony in the frozen North at the time it was written. "Joe Braxton," writes Mr. Riggs, "has a half interest in a large laundry that is being run at an army post near Eagle City, and is doing well. L. L. Walker has returned from his winter's work on his claim and has now begun his summer work as a painter in the city. E. J. Terrill, Tom Pierce and George Smith have opened a restaurant for the summer and have already begun to do a good business. They have some very promising mining claims on which they worked during the winter. Mrs. Jennie Clark is cooking at a mining camp about forty miles from Dawson. Mr. and Mrs. Brown have just returned from their claim and report it showing up nicely for the summer. Mrs. Daniels is living in the city and is doing well. Mrs. Beckwith and her daughter arrived from Skagway a few days ago." This is the first letter that Mr. Riggs has sent out during the season and he promises to have more to say in a subsequent letter in the near future. A. M. E. District Conference.

She trills and they strive to imitate her. Their mistakes are many and the song fairly scolds them and again gives them an example. At last, to her great delight they get their lesson right. When they do so, alas! it is too late. The summer has passed and the frosts of autumn send the feathered songsters off to seek warmer homes and the fairy is left all alone. She is heart-broken over the desertion by her pupils and moans for a time, but then to console herself, begins to sing the lessons she taught them, thus forgetting all in the glorious outpouring of her song. and vicissitudes of an English fairy. It is full of complications and uprocess fun and furnishes a first class book for a series of most sensational situations. Of course in the end every satisfactorily explained and all else happily. The play is not only unique as an author's creation, but it is that appeals to human nature and strikingly original in tone. It is dramatization of Charles Read famous novel, "It Is Never Too Late to Mend," and to those familiar with this interesting story further comment on the merits of this play are necessary. It will be mounted with special scenery and interpreted by large cast of sterling and well known artists. The brilliancy of Madame Nevada's execution in this song is said to be unsurpassed by anything else she sings. It is hard to conceive of any other singer attempting it, for the peculiar, delicate, bird-like quality of her voice is eminently fitted to the song. FREDERICK WARDE The engagement of Frederick Warde at the grand next Wednesday and Thursday will be one of the most remarkable events that has ever occurred in Seattle. Wednesday will be the three hundred and thirty-eighth anniversary of Shakespeare's birth and Mr. Warde has arranged a special pro gram on exceedingly novel lines to specially celebrate the occasion. Thursday night Mr. Warde's engagement will close with a performance of Othello, in which Mr. Warde will be seen as Othello. Mr. Charles D. Herman as Iago, Mr. Barry Johnstone as Cassio, Miss Antoniette Ashton as Desdemona and Miss Virginia Drew Trescott as Emelia—a strong cast of a great play. Realism in a dramatic form when not overdone is one of the most interesting features. There is just enough in "The Denver Express" now running at the Third Avenue Theatre to satisfy the taste of its numerous patrons "The Denver Express" is not a great play, but it is on a par with "Arizona" and other kindred plays. It depicts life as it exists today, true, somewhat exaggerated, but theatre goers who witness the performance are sure to form a good impression of both the play and the company. "Over the Sea," which comes to the Third Avenue Theatre next week, opening Sunday matinee, unlike so many other melo-dramas, has a reasonable and consistent plot.

George E. Jones Dead. But a few days ago in the city of Pine Bluff, Ark., G. E. Jones, one of the most noted colored men of the entire South, passed away. Perhaps no colored man in the whole country has undertaken and succeeded in more gigantic enterprises than did Mr. Jones during his life. At one time he was the sole proprietor of every foot of street car line in Pine Bluff and heavily interested in two or three other railroad enterprises, which covered quite an amount of territory. It is reported that he has left a valuable estate, over which distant relatives and female associates can squabble in the courts of that state for its possession. Rhodes and Washington. Perhaps Felix Adler, who addressed the Society of Ethical Culture in New York a few days ago, was correct in his very pronounced assertion that "after all, Booker T. Washington was a greater humanitarian and a more nobler citizen than Cecil Rhodes," but later developments along this line will hardly bear out Mr. Adler's allegation notwithstanding Mr. Washington's world-wide reputation for uplifting humanity without regard to color or sex. The two men had nothing in common, and yet came prey nearly arriving at the same conclusions in general. Mr. Rhodes certainly did not lead his people by the aid of the schoolmasters ferrule as Mr. Washington is doing, but he has made it possible for many of not only his own but of the people of other nationalities to enjoy the freedom of the highest educational qualifications for the express purpose of enlarging and extending their sphere of usefulness. Mr. Rhodes also left millions for the benefit of humanity in general, and while Mr. Washington should not be condemned because perhaps he will not be able to leave millions for the poor and school endowments, yet he will leave a lifework when he shall be called to his long home that will be worth millions to humanity. Cecil Rhodes may have had his faults, but his winding up is to be admired, and perhaps Mr. Washington has his faults, and it is hoped his winding up will be equally grand ad illustrious as was Mr. Rhodes. While the two men bear no comparison, as said above, they each have done their part, and the world will be better for each of them having lived and died.
