The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT PIE. ************************************************************** VOL. VIII. NO. 51 The Republican Central Committee had its meeting last Saturday, and after a stormy session between the representatives from the three larger counties of the state—King, Spokane and Pierce—and the representatives from the smaller counties, in which the larger counties came out second best, the committee adjourned after having fixed September 10th as the day of holding the next state convention, and fixing the apportionment one delegate for each one hundred votes cast for J. M. Frink for governor in 1900, and adjourned sine die after issuing the following official call for a state convention: Official Call. The Republican state convention for Washington is hereby called to meet at the city of Tacoma on Wednesday, September 10, 1902, at the hour of 10 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of placing in nomination three candidates for congress and one candidate for the state supreme court, and for the transaction of such business as may properly come before said convention. The basis of representation will be two delegates at large for each county and one delegate for each 100 votes or fraction of 50 or over cast in each county for J. M. Frink, Republican candidate for governor, at the general election of 1900, the apportionment for each county being as follows: County— Frink's vote, 1900. Delegates, 6 Adams 383 6 Asotin 350 6 Chelan 485 7 Chehalls 1,648 18 Ciallam 622 8 Clarke 1,517 17 Columbia 835 10 Cowlitz 1,104 13 Douglas 399 6 Ferry 350 6 Franklin 39 2 Garfield 452 7 Island 240 4 Jefferson 599 8 King 8,801 90 Kitsap 807 10 Kittitas 946 11 Klickitat 850 11 Lewis 1,762 20 Lincoln 1,130 13 Mason 483 7 Okanogan 372 6 Pacific 787 10 Pierce 4,734 49 San Juan 420 6 Skagit 1,611 18 Skamania 165 4 Snohomish 2,578 28 Spokane 4,613 48 Stevens 987 12 Thurston 1,347 15 Wahkiakum 355 6 Walla Walla 1,907 21 Whatcom 2,652 29 Whitman 2,060 23 Yakima 1,364 16 It is recommended that the several county conventions, in electing delegates, also elect alternates. It is recommended that the basis of apportionment for delegates to joint senatorial districts be the same as that for the state convention. The State Central Committee recommends that all voters who are willing to support the Republican congressional nominees at the November election be invited to participate in the primaries. J. H. SCHIVELY, Some of the papers of the state are trying to make political capital out of the apportionment for first one senatorial aspirant and then another, as they themselves happened to be inclined, but nothing of the kind seems to have entered the minds of the members of the central committee in fixing this apportionment. The smaller counties voted for Frink, and voted for Frink with the hope that he would win, while the larger counties voted against Frink for sinister motives, and the smaller counties saw an opportunity to administer a rebuke to the larger counties for their selfishness in defeating a Republican candidate for governor, and they did so, and quite deservedly at that. There was no excuse for the Republicans of the large counties defeating Senator Frink for Governor, and that defeat will be a blot on their political escutcheon for many years yet to come. The fixing of the date for the convention for September 10th has to some extent cooled the ardor of the would-be office-seekers in King county, and since last Saturday they have been taking a good many sighs of relief, as they realize it is altogether too early for them to begin to line up or History of Society SPOKANE POLITICS. SPOKANE POLITICS. * make slates to rule the next county convention. Of course, "the boys" are talking among themselves, and per haps ever pledging to support this or that candidate, but such pledges will count for nought the fight actually begins. The Pie-maker suggests that politics be given a rest in this county until next July at least, and then go at it for all it is worth. There will be no need of but one county convention being held in King county, and that convention need not be set before some day near the middle or latter part of August, and if this is done there will be no need in the world for anyone fixing up political slates for that convention this early in the game, as they are liable to be broken before the time of holding the convention. ... Mayor Humes had quite a controversy with a committee from the Chamber of Commerce one day this week, at which the mayor lost his temper and showed very plainly that he wanted the members of the Chamber of Commerce and everybody else in Seattle to distinctly understand that he was running Seattle, and that if it wasn't being run to suit the members of the Chamber of Commerce and the business men of this city it was being run to suit Tom Humes, and that was quite sufficient, especially for Tom Humes. He gave them to further understand that if they were not satisfied with the way it was being run they could do like the dog did with the cold dumplings, lump them and go ahead, as he intended to run it just as he had been doing in the past, which, God knows, is bad enough. This is a strange lot of talk to come from Mayor Humes, who made bold his boasts that he was going to run the city of Seattle in accordance with the wishes of the business men in Seattle, and not SPOKANE, May 14.—To Republicans outside of King County there are many reasons for believing that Seattle will be given one of the places on the congressional ticket this fall. It would not be good politics for the party to refuse to do it. The Democrats undoubtedly will place a Seattle man on their ticket, and if the Republicans fail to do the same the people of the city, and especially the business men, will give the Democratic nominee a majority in King county which will be very dangerous to all the Republican nominees for congress. Therefore, if Seattle asks for the place the rest of the state, with possibly the Northwest excepted, will be inclined to grant it in order not to weaken the entire ticket. It is not material to the rest of the state which man from Seattle gets the county's support, for neither of those mentioned are especially well known outside of their home county, and especially in Eastern Washington, though there is a feeling that all of the three now mentioned for the place are capable. Further, it is believed that the Preston men will not dare to attempt to deprive King county of a congressional candidate when it seems easier than at any previous time since the admission of the state for that county to secure a position on the Republican ticket, which this year would almost certainly send a Seattle man to the halls of congress. King county has too often in the past been the butt of ridicule, because in its desire to secure the best it has thrown away the opportunity to secure something of a little less value. Of course, the friends of Mr. Preston would not prefer to have a congressional position given to Seattle because of the possibility of injuring his chances for the senate. And if they are in control in King county if there should be a long drawn-out fight for the congressional nomination, the Preston men might throw down the Seattle man on some deal which would strengthen their senatorial candidate. But from present appearances it would seem that the supporters of Mr. Preston would have no excuse to betray the man who is given the indorsement of the county for congressman, for if the delegation asks for the nomination it now looks as though it would be granted by the rest of the state without much ado. But it may be the Preston supporters will conclude it to be to their best interest not to throw down the candidates from their own city for the con SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1902 the gooey gooey men, but now that he has been elected, and, as he believes, for his last time, he wilfully and evidently with malice aforethought says to the business men, "You are not to be considered in shaping the destinies of this city; and not only you, but no one else, save and except Tom Humes and the gamblers, will be considered for a single moment in saying whether vice shall be public or private in Seattle." The assertion on the part of the mayor that certain gamblers were not being protected by the chief of police and his men seems to have been nothing more nor less than an assertion, for he almost in the same breath admitted that certain gamblers had been denied the privilege of running because there had to be a boss gambler to whom the other gamblers were compelled to pay tribute to. In other words, there must be a boss gambler to whom the administration can look to for money to keep up its political machine, is what the mayor would seem to indicate. . . . Perhaps the chief of police and his men in this city are trying to enforce the laws, but the facts would not seem to bear out the hypothesis. There is no doubt but that the police are well aware of the fact that liquors are being sold at the lakes every day and every night, yea, every hour in every day of the week, and yet no very great efforts are being made to prevent such. Occasionally a man is arrested, and at once puts up a fifty-dollar bail and forfeits it and returns to his place of business, and begins to openly sell liquors again, and runs on until the police feel like firing him again, and then he is arrested and forfeits another $50. Is it possible that the chief of police and his men are completely helpless and wholly unable to cope with the law-breakers of this city? Is it possible that the chief of police cannot stop a man from breaking the law when he has men sufficient standing about the very man's doors to arrest him every five minutes if need be? If the mayor and the chief of police admit that, then they are both unfit to hold an office, and should be impeached by the city council at once. No man nor no class of Continued on page 4. gressional nomination. In the first place they would thereby incur emblems which would be serious to them, and it would be an enmity which the people might say was justified. Further, the fact that Seattle was given a congressman might not be a serious handicap to Mr. Preston, for if the state thought it not desirable to have both a senator and a congressman from the same city it would be remembered that it would only be two years before there would be an opportunity for some other part of the state to ask for and probably secure the congressman, while the senator is elected for six years. And it will not be forgotten that Tacoma now has both a senator and a congressman, and no one be lies that there would be anything seriously amiss if Seattle was given as much. It is for these reasons that there is a belief that Seattle will be given a congressman if she asks for it. At least, this is the way it looks at long range. Speaking of Mr. Preston and Gov. McBride, who is pushing Preston for the senate, and the attitude of the two on the railroad question, there is much uncertainty in the minds of the people of Eastern Washington who are so anxious for freight rate legislation as to the sincerity of the people of the Sound country in their advocacy of freight legislation. Governor McBride and Mr. Preston are enough in earnest about it, but how is it with the business interests of the Sound. To tell the truth, the people of Spokane and the cow counties sometimes wonder if the people of the Coast will give them any real help in their fight for a better adjustment of freights. They not only are pleased when a Western Washington man gives them any assistance in this cause, which is so much to them, but they also are surprised. The fact is, the commercial interests of Eastern Washington and of the cities of the west side are anything but the same. Eastern Washington merchants want certain concessions from the roads, but these very concessions are what the emerchants of Seattle and Tacoma do not wish to see granted. In fact, the merchants of Seattle can have only a secondary interest in the granting of a reduced rate to the farmers of Eastern Washington. For this reason the people of the eastern part of the state feel that when the members of the legislature of the west side yote with them for reductions in freight rates the vote is given from motives of justice rather than because it is to their interest to so vote. Hence the people of Spokane and of the farming districts of the east side feel a deep debt of gratitude to such men as Senator Preston and Representative W. H. Lewis of Seattle, who fought so warmly for freight legislation at the last session of the legislature. But they also feel that when the railroads commence their fight against Senator Preston, as it is presumed, of course, they will that it will be possible for these railroad supporters to show to the business men of the Sound that it is against their interests to fight for the cause of the people of Eastern Washington. It is for this reason that the people east of the mountains fear that the man who worked hard for them in the legislature of 1901 will find very serious opposition from near at home. Fixing the date of the state convention at the tenth of September came as a surprise to the people of this section. It was expected that the known wish of Congressman Jones would be heeded and a long campaign granted. But the result is generally satisfactory to Spokane Republicans. The evident result will be that the county convention will not be called for perhaps three months, and quite likely not until the early part of September. This will give only a two months' campaign in this county and less than that in the state, but this now looks good to the candidates and would-be candidates who are not anxious to put up expense money for a long campaign. The Republicans also are perfectly willing that the Democrats get first into the field this year, and the result of the late Republican conventions probably will be that the Democrats will first name their tickets. This should be of some advantage to the Republicans of King county, for if the Democrats place a Seattle man on their congressional ticket it will enable the Republicans to meet it as they see fit. Fixing the state convention at Ta coma is not disappointing to the peo ple of Spokane. There was no especial effort made to bring it to this city though it would have been welcome. But it gives Spokane a good excuse to ask that the next state convention which will be of more importance come east of the mountains, and inci dently to this city. The Spokesman-Review of this city has two political motives definitely determined upon. It is first, last and all the time for Senator Turner's re-election. But it is not so devoid of political astuteness as to believe that he has any good chance of winning. The politicians of the paper have carefully analyzed the situation in each county, and have been forced to the unwelcome truth that it will be next to impossible for the Democrats to gain in enough districts to overcome the heavy majorities of more than two to one which existed against then in both houses of the last legislature. Therefore they were forced to look about for a place to land in case their fight for Senator Turner failed to elect him. Senator Preston of King is their second choice. He is acceptable to them for several reasons. In the first place he does not live in Spokane, which makes him acceptable to the Spokesman-Review. In the second place, he is not a resident of Eastern Washington, and knows but little about the wishes of the people east of the mountains. This makes him still more satisfactory to the Spokane daily combination. Thirdly, he is against the railroads, and this, too, please the paper, and fourthly and finally, and chiefly his name is not John L. Wilson, and that alone is reason enough for the Spokesman-Review and its twin sister the Portland Oregonian. This choice therefore, is quite satisfactory to the morning daily of Spokane. It enables it to be consistent in carrying water on both shoulders. When it is posing as a Democratic sheet it will be for Senator Turner. When it considers it is to its interests to advocate Republicanism it will be Preston. In last Sunday's issue the Spokesman-Review favored Mr. Preston for two reasons. First, he is not a rich man, and, second, he has no political patronage with which he can assist himself. The first reason perhaps is a good one, although there are some people who believe that money ought not to bar a man even from the United States senate. The second reason might amount to something if it was true. But it is a well known fact that Senator Preston in his candidacy has behind him all the patronage of the governor of the state. The governor is believed to be using this patronage in every possible way which will assist the man from King. It is seldom that a bunch of patronage is used more vigorously to promote the political desires of a man than is the state patronage of Washington. It is claimed in Spokane that Clarence Ide is well out of the woods. In fact, there never has been any good reason for doubting his confirmation. The charge that he was a briber is serious enough, and of course should be investigated, but when the evidence in support of it is so slim it ceases to be of importance. The other charges against him are foolish. When Mr. ide is confirmed as collector of customs the friends of Mr. Jesse Frye may expect to see him confirmed, but not before. Mayor Byrnes gave his enemies a body blow Monday of this week. It was all over the new gas franchise which the gas company has been asking for. It was passed by the city council, in spite of the opposition of the Turner faction, led by Fred Baldwin. The Turner men were angry at their defeat, and concluded to force the mayor to veto it! They laid their plans with more enthusiasm than good judgment. In the first place, the Spokesman-Review opened the fight with a big hue and cry about the manner in which it was passed. Then the Turner men announced that there would be a celled meeting of the Democratic city central committee Monday night to demand that the mayor veto the ordinance. This was to be backed up by a monstrous mass meeting of Democrats—real Democrats, not Byrnes Democrats or Coffeen Democrats—which was to have been held about Wednesday evening. By this time it was expected that the mayor and his supporters would be willing to surrender unconditionally. But these followers of Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Turner did not take into consideration the fact that Mr. Byrne and Mr. Coffeen also are capable of action. The outcome of the plans of the opponents of the mayor was that when they had all their arrangements made for the committee meeting of Monday night, with their resolutions written and their committees agreed upon, the mayor, without further fuss, quietly signed the ordinance and left the Turnerites to hold all the committee meetings and mass meetings they wished.

For example, three weeks ago it is claimed that twenty-five of the men deserted from the Oregon, and a week later fifteen deserted from the same ship, and last week ten more deserted, thus making fifty men in three weeks' time as having deserted the ship, which, if continued at the same rate, will soon completely unman the battleship. Just why the men desert the battleships is not fully explained, unless it be that the officers in charge assume the brute role toward the men and drive them to desert their country's flag. If this be true, then the authorities at Washington City should put some of them under court-martial for extreme cruelty to the men. Of course, it would break up the efficiency of the army and the navy if the men were allowed to talk back to the officers in charge, but nothing would serve as a better preventive against-the perpetration of such brutality on the part of the officers to ward the men than for the men to take a shot at such officers, and be sure they did not miss their mark when they took such a shot. "How do you spell your name?" inquired Judge Tallman of an antebellum old colored man one day last week, who was a witness in a civil case in Judge Tallman's court. "Sah?" promptly came in reply. "How do you spell your name?" again was asked him. Puzzled as for an answer, the old man sat speechless for a second or so, and then he deliberately drawled out, "Well, sah, I don't spell it, I jest call it." An amusing smile was seen to play for a minute upon the faces of those present, and even the accustomed sternness of Judge Tallman gave way for a second to a smothered smile. The old gentleman proved after all to be quite a talkative witness, and whether he knew anything of the case at court or not he talked right on and told everything that had transpired since he had been in Seattle, especially if he thought it had the least bearing on the case on which he had been called as a witness. Another smile soon began to play upon the countenances of the spectators in court, and this time Judge Tallman did not by any means enjoy the new turn Are Many Deserters. Did Not Spell It: AFRO - AMERICANISM ```markdown ``` Is the Negro Doomed? Was it the irony of fate or the heavy hand of a frowning God that befall St Pierre, Martinique, perhaps the most beautiful island of the Atlantic ocean and by far the most cultured and refined, when some 40,000 of its inhabitants were swept away by a volcanic eruption in less time than it takes to tell the tale. If it was the heavy hand of a chastening Father as a punishment for sins committed by those people, it was an awful one, and one perhaps that can only be compared with the fate that beffold ancient Sodom and Gomorrah. The almost instantaneous death of 40,000 souls by fire, smoke and ashes is so awful in its entirety that one cannot conceive without beholding it the terrible destruction that befall the inhabitants and the vegetation of that most beautiful island. Forty Thousand Killed. Martinique is a French possession and belongs to that chain of the West Indies islands that lie in the Caribbean sea, and owing to its fertility of soil and salubrity of climate it is unquestionably the most beautiful island of that entire group, and had reached a state of civilization, culture and refinement that is enjoyed by no other one of the West Indies islands. Though not to exceed fifteen miles in width, it nevertheless, prior to the terrible catastrophe which befell it last week, had a population of 200,000 souls, and as varied as to nationalities as the colors of the rainbow itself. However, the wealth of the island was mostly in the possession of the white French planters, while perhaps ninety per cent. of the entire population were persons having in their veins Negro blood, and in the destruction of St. Pierre and the surrounding country it is estimated that out of the 40,000 who perished fully 39,000 of them were Negroes. Even nature itself seems to of events, and abruptly calling a hall to the talkative witness he remarked: "This story is highly interesting. I must admit, but it is by no means important, especially as to this case, and if the witness does not know anything about it he had better retire." Or course this was not as the witness wanted things to go, because he wanted to testify for his friend, and so he continued talking until the judge told him he was excused and bade him go in peace and talk no more. Blethen as Presidentt. From Colonel Alden J. Blethen's paper it is learned that Colonel Blethen is now president of the board of regents of the State University, and, strange as it may seem, is making an ideal official. Colonel Blethen's paper told of this in black letters, and for once even good, sensible men in this city agreed with the colonel's paper. Alden J. Blethen is either wholly wrong or wholly right; that is to say, he is either the best man in the world or the worst one, and as president of the board of regents, and even as a member of the board, he has taken a particular interest in the State University and has worked late and early for its success. The colonel may have a sinister motive in this, owing to the fact that he has a daughter attending the university, and he seems to have done all he has done largely because this young lady is a very bright and interesting student at the university and he is trying to make her fee proud of her father when he comes THREE CRESENT CREAM CRESENT CREAM COFFEE Installed Packaging Crescent Filling Co.

The French government, with its armies of well trained soldiers, is doing its utmost to exterminate the blacks in Northern Africa, while England is doing the same thing in Southern Africa, the United States is engaged in a similar business in the Philippine islands, as well as in the Southern States of the United Statse, and now comes Nature and, in one fell swoop as it were, sweeps them from the face of the earth by thousands. It is said of Martineau that the towns of the island possess some of the most handsome women in the world, and having been schooled and reared in the France proper they return to the island, bringing with them all of the French customs and habits, and owing to the ease with which one could live on the island they found time and means to dress in the height of fashion and to pose in equally as fastidious customs as gay Paree itself. The white citizens are the real owners of the islands, and have accumulated vast fortunes, either by commercial or agricultural enterprises, and they had both the money and the desire to make St. Pierre and the other towns thereof complete imitations of the parent city, Paris, and this they did. Though there are a great many more colored than whites on the island, it is said that there is quite a bit of race prejudice, so far as the white women are concerned, and they absolutely refuse to intermarry with the blacks. The same, however, was not true with the white man, so goes the story, as they freely intermarry with the blacks, and this has been going on to such an extent that there are many thousand mulattoes, or, as they they are known in those Southern countries, creoles, who for beauty and even fashion surpass theler white sisters, for they, too, have been educated and refined in Paris. While history does not exactly record it as a fact, it is nevertheless known to a great many persons, and especially to the French, that Empress Josephine, the wife of the noted Napoleon, was a Martinique creole. She was a most beautiful woman, and when in her teens she refused to marry a French nobleman because her "black mammy," and black mammy in fact, who was something of a soothsayer or fortune teller, predicted that Josephine would be a woman of great power and influence and the wife of a king. She eventually went to France to complete her education, and while there married Napoleon Bonepierre the Corsican, who afterwards became emperor of the French government, and Josephine, the beautiful creole girl, was crowned empress. Governor Davis of Arkansas recently pardoned Andrew J. Thompson, a Negro, from the state penitentiary, with the understanding that Thompson should at once leave the state for Massachusetts and there make his home. He was prompted to do this because he recently visited Massachusetts and heard the South terribly abused for mistreating the Negro as it was doing, and he added in his pardoning proclamation, "If Massachusetts wants the Negro I will send her one." Massachusetts nor the North in general is not hankering for Southern criminals be they white or black, but Massachusetts would prefer a hundred times over the Negro criminals of the South to such blaten-mouthed bovines as Ben Tillman of South Carolina and Jefferson Davis of Arkansas.

In reply to a criticism from the Elma Chronicle, The Seattle Republican wishes to announce that it repeats it, Seattle intends having a congressman this year, and if she cannot get a Republican one she is going to have a Democratic one. If this statement will weaken her with both of the parties then Seattle is perfectly willing to be weakened. --- The allegation that "when the three big counties of this state get together the little counties do not stand any show," did not work worth a cent last Saturday at the Republican Central Committee meeting. The little counties combined against the three big counties and as a result the political checkerboard of the state got badly muddled up. Governor McBride is on record as opposing prize fighting in this state. The governor may honestly oppose prize fighting, but unless he is able to bring about harmony between the jarring factions of the Republican party in the near future a prize fight is going to be pulled off in this state in spite of him, and the governor is going to be one of the participants in the affair, though instead of fistic it may be a political pull off. Andrew Carnegie, who started out to give away a fortune and thereby die poor, has not made much headway, as he has only given away $67,000,000 since he began, which perhaps does not represent a twentieth part of his enormous fortune. For educational purposes the United States has received $52,361,673 of the entire sum that he has given away, while England has received $420,000 and Cuba $252,000. The only six states of the United States that have not gotten a piece of this fortune are Rhode Island, Delaware, South Carolina, Mississippi, Arkansas and Idaho.

Gold, fine, coarse or in nuggets, lead : : bullets, sand, gravel and boulders, in fact anything half the size of the suction pipe ‘ ; can be pumped up from the greatest depths and discharged through the pump and be ; carried a distance of three miles or more if desired. ; Our eight-inch gold dredging pump will move, easily and surely, twelve cubic : ; yards of sand, gravel and water per minute, carrying in suspension twenty-five per ‘ ; cent of the granular material. The maximum cost of handling this matter, from river , bottom to sluice boxes, will not exceed three cents per cubic yard. There are hundreds 5 of miles of water ways with millions of cubie yards of gold bearing sands, running § ; in values from twenty cents per yard to hundreds of dollars per yard. Let us take ‘ ; the very low and conservative figure of twenty cents per cubic yard, a figure so low ‘ y that even the Chinese cannot make a living on it, and see what one pump of our pat- ; ; tern will do for us in a 24-hour run. Here are the figures: ; } Solid matter pumped, at three yards per minute, 4,320 cubie yards. ! } Value, at 20 cents per cubie yard. .... 0... .... cece e cence ce ees, $864.00 Cost to move at 3 cents per eubie yard ....... 00. 2.2... ss ss... 129.60 ; Net profit, 24 houra ran. )....50.0.0+ <cceceeues scene vee $1944 ; Remember this is not a centrifugal pump, but a direct action plunger pump and : > the only pump in the world with a suction sufficiently powerful to lift gold. All : ; other apparatus now in use and on the market for gold dredging purposes are of the ‘ ; endless chain bucket pattern and are cumbersome and unsatisfactory and utterly in- ; adequate for the purpose. Every practical miner knows that gold, being heavier than , other matter and obeying the law of gravitation, finds its way to the lowest levels , and becomes imbedded in the small crevices and cavities of the bed rock. The endless chain bucket dredges may therefore scrape the rough bed rock and bring to the sur. face the gravel and sand containing some of the finer gold, but the richer deposits of gold remain untouched in the cavities and pockets and are lost. * . ; The Brewster Perfection Gold Dredging Pump Brings to the surface every particle of detached matter coming within reach of its : powerful suction pipe, and all pockets or cavities are emptied instantly. This suction pipe allows nothing to escape. The tremendous rush of water, moving at the ; rate of fifteen to seventeen feet per second under the powerful strokes of a plunger, ; 5 will lift the nuggets of gold as readily as fine sand, and the whole rich harvest is se. cured. And all this at half the cost and in less than half the time consumed by any ‘ other method now known to man. ‘ The disturbance caused by the buckets of the endless chain dredge when in oper- ; ation results in great loss, the finer gold being disturbed is caught up by the action of ‘ > the water and is carried away. But there can be no such loss when our direct plunger ‘ pump is used. Any disturbance caused by our suction pipe is always due to the : strong flow of water TOWARDS THE MOUTH OF THE PIPE, and every atom of fine gold disturbed is immediately carried into that suction and is brought to the surface. Every particle of gold is saved by the Bewsher pump.

It is but natural for children to want other children to understand that their parents are the most learned and most influential parents in the world, and in order to give daughter Blethe such an opportunity to lord it over her fellow students has doubtless prompted the colonel to strike long and hard for the success of the State University. McGraw Did It. Speaking about Colonel Blethen being at the head of the State University reminds the writer of quite a story he heard in that connection a few days ago, which was to the effect that the colonel was now president of the board of regents of the State University owing to the fact that ex-Goxnoron John McGraw had taken a personal interest in him along this line and asked Governor McBride to reappoint him as one of the regents of the university. Of course, knowing the circumstances, you will smile when you hear that Governor McGraw actually interceded in behalf of Colonel Blethen, but it is true, and it all came about through Prof. Ed. S. Meany, who is quite a prominent educator in the State University. Prof. Meany is a stance friend of Governor McGraw, and it was through his influence that he got a position at the State University. Then came the Populist war, when the university was turned into a political hotbed, and Governor Rogers appointed, along with Colonel Blethen, other Populists, who did a great many radical things. Somehow or other Colonel Blethen managed to save Ed. Meany's scalp, and thereby hangs a tale. Blethen's Hard Work. During the entire time Colonel Blethen was regent of the university under Governor Rogers he seems to have been the university's most ardent champion, both in his paper and in a personal way. He took an interest in its general welfare, which resulted in it getting many new improvements and many new things that it otherwise could not nor would not have gotten. Finally his term of office expired, and then it was that Ed. Meany took a hand in his reappointment. He went to Governor McGraw to ask him to assist in getting Colonel Blethen reappointed, but, remembering how Colonel Blethen had treated the governor, he hesitated and left without telling his mission. This he did three or four times in succession, until he finally braced up and explained himself to the governor and said to him, "Now, I wish you would do what you could for the reappointment of Colonel Blethen, as he can aid the university, owing to the fact that he has a large paper in the city, more than any other of its regents." Mr. McGraw hesitated for a moment, looked up at him and then quietly asked him, "If you were me would you assist Colonel Blethen?" This unexpected report placed Prof. Meany in a rather awkward position, and he frankly replied, so goes the story, "I don't think I would, but you are not me, and that is why I ask this of you." Before he left, however, Governor McGraw had consented to intercede with Governor McBride for the appointment, which he did, saying at the time, "Governor, it will be the only political favor that I will ask of you," and while those about the governor at the time looked awfully funny at John H. McGraw asking for a place for Colonel Alden J. Blethen, and the governor looked equally funny, yet he agreed to make the appointment, and it was done. Man and a Mouse. When adversities came thick and fast at the door of John H. McGraw no man in the city of Seattle lent more fuel to the flames struggling to overcome him than did Colonel Blethen, if he was not the whole thing of it. McGraw went North and succeeded in a way in recuperating his lost fortune, and since he has returned has gone on in a business way, allowing his enemies, politically and otherwise, to say whatever they would or may about him, but attending strictly to his own business, until he is now almost out of the woods, even from a moneyed man's standpoint, and when he was again back in a position to do Colonel Blethen much harm if he desired, instead of administering to him the same kind of medicine Blethen administered to him, he seeks to have him named for an honored position and succeeds. Here's a contrast for you between a man and a mouse. No Cop Was Near. A man feeling down the street the other day, closely pursued by another shouting "Stop! Stop!" soon attracted a crowd that would have done a circus parade proud. The fleeing man was quickly overtaken, and then the crowd did gather. No one was able to learn what was the trouble, but the escaping man was marched back a prisoner and was soon lost from sight by all concerned by taking refuge in a "block." At least twenty minutes transpired while all this was going on and not less than a thousand persons gathered thereabouts. The man ran fully a block before overtaken, and yet amid all of that excitement, right in the very heart of the city, not a single policeman saw nor heard one thing about it until he picked up an evening paper. He or she who expects police protection in Seattle had better hang out a sign, "Public Gambling Within," or most anything may befall them.

Cut-Rate Millinery Sale Continued from page 1. charges that would be considered mere petty offenses in the North, and a great many of them committ even those petty offences under conditions and circumstances that would not exist if they lived in Massachusetts. If the Negro was in the North surrounded by white Christian men and women there would be a great lessening of crime among them, and the desire to commit crime would not have such a stronghold on them as in the South, where they are driven to desperation by such cattle as Bill Tillman and Jeff Davis. If Governor Davis of Arkansas will make as much effort to send those Negroes from his state that have not committed any crime, but who are honest and hard working people, to the North, East and West, as he has this ex-criminal Negro, he will confer a favor on them, and at the same time do the whites of these sections no great injustice, but, no, he wants them and will fight to keep them. When Ben Tillman, the South Carolina apology for a United States senator, made his recent tirade against the colored folk of the South by saying that it was absolutely necessary for the white folk to adopt the shot-gun policy in order to prevent "nigger dominancy" in the South, he most basely lied, for at no time and in no state of the South, even under "radical rule," was there anything like approaching nigger dominance. When the Republican party reigned supreme in the Southern states on account of the Negro vote, even then seventy-five percent of the Republicans holding office in those state were white persons, and not only white persons, but well-bred white persons from the North, who, since the overthrow of the Republican party in those states, have returned to the North and are prominent in the affairs of the section in which they live. There never has been, nor will there be for years yet to come, any danger of the Negro voters ruling or controlling any of the states of the Union, even though they be given a fair ballot and free count at the polls and their choice be duly installed into office. It must be admitted that in some of the Southern states there are more colored than white persons, but there is also such a vast amount of jealousy and rivalry between the colored persons that makes it impossible for them to agree on any one candidate, and when they do agree it is always on a white instead of a black candidate. If the Southern white men would pay as much attention to the education and development of the young white children of that section as they do to the preventing of Negroes becoming prominent in the affairs of the country, they would rule the country a good deal easier and by far less bloodhed than they are now doing. --- . . .

Continued from page 1. men can repeatedly break the laws of any city or community with impunity and live, if the officers of the law are honest in their efforts and intentions of preventing it. If the liquor venders at the lake will sell liquors contrary to the laws, then they should be arrested every ten minutes and fined not $50 but $500, of just as heavy a fine as the city can impose upon them, and the assertion is here ventured that such actions on the part of the police would not be long in breaking up in business such law-breakers. If the members of the present city council fail to pass an ordinance raising the saloon license from $600 to $1,000 per year, they will be remembered by their constituents at the next general election for not doing so. The people of this city have spoken on that point in words of no uncertain meaning, and for the members of the city council to do otherwise than to carry out the will and wish of an overwhelming majority of the voters of this city will be suicidal for them. The Plea maker does not believe that the various members of the council will turn a deaf ear to the wishes of the majority of the voters, even if such be contrary to their individual belief and idea of doing things in general. If imposing a $1,000 license on saloon-keepers work a hardship it will soon be discovered, and the voters will be as eager to repeal it at the next election as they were to enact it, and it is the duty of the various councilmen to carry out the express will of their constituents. Let them have a sample of their desires and wishes, and if it works a hardship they are the ones to right the wrong. The Pie-maker surmises that Frank Clancy must have felt like a dog in the face the other day when Councilman Patrick Fitzpatrick from the First ward coolly informed Mr. Clancy that he owed nothing to the saloon keepers and gamblers of the First ward; he was not elected by them, and therefore they held no strings whatever on him. It has always been thought that Mr. Fitzpatrick was a creature of the Clancy brothers, and so far as his nomination is concerned perhaps he was, but after he was nominated there is no denying the fact that the saloon men and the gamblers supported Tommy Navin almost to a man, and that, too, without regard to their former political affiliations. Mr. Fitzpatrick is aware of that fact, and notwithstanding the fact that that class of men voted and worked against him, he was elected over Mr. Navin by an overwhelming majority, and it is but natural for him now to feel a bit sore with them and give them to understand that they need not or should not expect any favors whatever at his hands as a member of the city council. And then, again, Clancy must have felt deeply chagrined to learn from Mr. Fitzpat- --- . . . rick's own mouth that he, Clancy, did not carry Fitzpatrick in his vest pocket to be delivered up to either Ed Sweeney of anyone else. for Mr. Clancy had certainly fixed it up in his mind that whenever he wanted to hand out Fitzpatrick's vote all he had to do was to do so and tell him how to vote. He knows better now. PERSONAL Will Hamlin is at The Tacoma, Tacoma, Wash. Charley Jones, formerly of the Lincoln Cafe, is now at the Portland. A good barber can secure employment at Roslyn by addressing P. O. box 42. A good waiter can occasionally get on at Green River by applying to Woods at the Rainier-Grand. Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Harris left for Dawson City last Thursday evening. They expect to be away not less than two years. Have you got a Home Savings Bank from the American Savings Bank & Trust Co.? If not, get one. Corner Second and Madison. *** The Rainier-Grand is still doing all the first class business, and Thos. Woods is in charge of the cafe with the best crew on this coast. B. F. Tutt has purchased the Wilson interest in the shop, corner Columbia and Western, and will be glad to see all of the old as well as the new customers. Henry Malone, the well known Henry, has left Seattle for Green River, where he will sojourn for several weeks. The many customers of Henderson's place will miss Henry and his pump. Mr. J. H. Ryan, solicitor and collector for The Seattle Republican, will spend a few days in Roslyn in the interest of the paper. Persons indebted to the paper will please settle with him while there. It is reported that Charley Bailey is to go north with Geo. Lyons. We hope it is not true. There are so many young hearts that would pine away were he to leave now, it can not be Bailey must remain. Don Cowie, who was accidentally drowned in Lake Washington last Sunday evening, was one of God's noblemen on general principles, and those who knew him are sorely grieved over his untimely end. Frank Smith has now become a benedict. There are all sorts of rumors in the air, of other young men. It is learned from an authoritative source that Jack Bailey is to lead to the alter soon a young lady who is fat, fair and forty. The racing season is now approaching. The paddock out at the track will soon be covered with green. The horses can be heard champing, restless in their stalls. At such a time Everett is too small a town for Harry Walker, so he blew in town a few days ago. Rev. J. Gordon McPherson is attracting good sized audiences to his church. Some one has asked why.

The Queen City Club has made a slight change in their management. Harry Smith retiring as president, being succeeded by Orway. All Shaver will act as manager.

Good singing. Henry Williams, the well known horseman, has returned to the city from San Francisco, where he had been to look up a bunch of running horses. He reports having picked up some fast ones, and predicts the Seattle Derby to be an event that all lovers of the sport can look forward to with pleasure. The Elks' fair and races will occur on the same dates. Billy Wilson, who caught a stray bullet at the Queen City Club a few weeks ago, is now able to be out again among his friends, and is receiving the congratulations of every one who enjoys his acquaintance. Billy is a good fellow, and it seems to be the "irony of fate" that such a man as he should happen along in time to be cut down, disabled for several weeks, when there are so many trifling fellows laying around such places that could just as well have stopped that bullet without serious injury to themselves or any one else. SPOKANE SPARKLES Miss Melba Vaughner left for Roslyn, Washington, to visit her aunt and great grandmother. Rev. J. B. Beckham left last Friday night for Roslyn, Washington, to preach the Odd Fellows' sermon. Mr. Theodore Parker, president of the Clarence Ray Buffalo Hump Mining Co., was down last week from the Hump and has been in conference with Mr. Geo. E. Anderson and other members of the company during the week. Williams & Walker played here Monday and Tuesday nights, and they gave a splendid performance. It was your correspondent's pleasure to meet both of the proprietors and she found them very pleasant as well as unassuming, traits much to be admired. Last Friday evening a concert was given for the benefit of the Calvary Baptist Church by Miss Candace Parker and Mrs. Chas. S. Parker, at Oliver Hall, and it was a complete success both financially and otherwise. The children's program was interspersed with solos by Mrs. Chas. S. Parker and Miss Minnie Brown. AMUSEMENTS. The second week of the Sherley company's engagement is proving equally as successful as the first. "A Young Wife" was given the first three nights of this week and was followed by "Dad's Girl" commencing Thursday night, including Saturday matinee. Next week, commencing Sunday evening, the Sherley Company will inaugurate the last week of their engagement with a farce comedy, "The Sultan's Daughter," a play in which Miss Sherley appears as a Mohammedan maiden. The play is very funny and is presented with all the oriental splendor of the sultan's court. The last half of next week will be devoted to one of the prettiest plays ever seen in Seattle, "For Fair Virginia." The fact that Miss Sherley has been able to secure this play to present at popular prices shows a commendable spirit of enterprice, as the play is known as a "high royalty one," and has never before been on the coast at popular prices. "Fair Virginia" will run the last four nights of next week, including Saturday matinee. Lewis Morrison. Lewis Morrison, in addition to being the best living Mephisto, is trained in all the detail of stage work. His insistence on the absolute accuracy of lights, scenes, music and properties is greatly responsible for the beauty of the new production of "Faust," in which he will appear at the Grand Sunday and Monday nights. Several thousand dollars have been invested in the new scenery, costumes and prologue, and the Morrison eye is swift to see and the Morrison ear is swift to hear any active or proposed misuse of these effects, which are dependent on each other to gain the necessary ensemble Goodwin-Elliott. Mr. N. C. Goodwin and Miss Maxime Elliott will play but a short engagement in this city. They will open with Henry V. Esmond's tender love lydyll, "When We Were Twenty-one," which was especially written for him and which many consider their most ambitious and most artistic success, as well as efforts, of their career. To further illustrate their versatility, they will also give us Madeline Luccette Ryley's delectable comedy, "An American Citizen," in which Miss Elliott has great opportunities for the display of her statuesque beauty and her many graces and charms. As those who have seen this delightful play know, its action takes place principally at Nice, France, during the carnival and Mr. Goodwin has provided most magnificent settings for the proper portrayal of the locale of the story. This in conjunction with the gorgeous gownings of the ladies, adds additional interest, particularly to the feminine portion of the audience in this presentation. These plays will be given at the Grand on Friday and Saturday of next week.
