The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT - PIE VOL. 1X. NO. 8 So many conflicting reports were sent out from Colfax concerning the recent county convention there that the Pie-maker was lead to believe that the convention had absolutely failed to indorse Governor McBride's railroad commission bill. And, laboring under the misapprehension, he was prompted to comment on that fact in such a way as to lead many to believe that the McBride-Preston forces had been routed hip and thigh in their own bailiwick. This statement was misleading, in fact an error, for the Whitman county Republican convention not only indorsed Governor McBride's ideas so far as the railroad commission is concerned, but it passed a subsequent resolution instructing its nominees for the legislature, in case they were elected, to vote for no man for the United States senate who did not support a railroad commission bill, which was in effect the indorsing of Harod Preston of King county for United States senator. In order that the readers of The Republican may not be deceived as to its intention of being fair in making statements for the public's benefit, the plank in the Whitman county convention referring to the railroads is here reproduced in full: ... Railroad Plank: "We heartily commend the policy of Governor McBride in his opposition to the railroad lobby, the railroad merger and the pass evil, and pledge him our earnest and active support in his fight to maintain the rights of shippers as against the unjust exactions of the railroads. We further pledge our legislators to first support a railroad commission bill drawn in the interests of the shipper, and this failing, then a maximum freight rate bill carrying a rate not to exceed $3.23 1-3 per ton, and any and all measures which promise to give the greatest and most speedy relief to the shipper. We further pledge and instruct the delegates to the state convention to work first, last and all the time for the incorporation in the state platform of a plank embodying the sentiments of Governor McBride in regard to railroad legislation." We are also in favor of the passage of a law in compliance with our constitution, making it an offense, punishable by fine, imprisonment or forfeiture of office, for any public official to accept a free pass or ticket, or to buy a ticket or pass at a discount, other than as sold to the public generally; and making it an offense, punishable by fine and imprisonment, for anyone connected with any railroad or other transportation company to give or offer to give a free pass or ticket to any public official, or to sell or offer to sell to him a ticket or pass at a discount, other than as sold to the public generally; and to the support of such a measure we pledge the honest and hearty effort of our legislative nominees. We pledge our legislative delegation to work with the friends of Governor McBride in organizing the house and senate along the line of his efforts to secure railroad legislation." . . . According to a dispatch from Spokane, as was predicted by The Republican's Spokane correspondent in a previous letter as well as the present one, the Wilson men completely controlled the Spokane convention, crushing out every opponent. The opposition to Wilson made a hard fight in Spokane county, and perhaps the hardest fight that the opposition to Wilson has tried to put up at the primaries for a good many years, but, as has already been said, the little wizard as usual is "lord of all he surveys" in his political balliwick. The Review, an anti-Wilson organ, although Democratic in politics, made a hard fight against him, but went down to defeat, as it always does, and now the horsehair is on the Spokane journalistic twins instead of the Wilson Brothers. This means that fifteen members of the legislature will be nominated who if elected, will vote for John L. Wilson for United States senator as long as there is any show in the world of his election, and when there is no longer any show for his election they will do that which will redound to Wilson's best political interests, just as the Spokane legislative delegates did in 1899. . . . As was predicted by the Pie-maker, now that Spokane county has indorsed Mr. Wilson in a way and a delegation to the state convention named to his liking, Senator Wilson will probably have the strongest trading delegation in the state mix-up, for he will not only have the Spokane delegation, but he will likewise have other delegations in Eastern Washington who will join forces with him, and when it comes to political trading John L. and Harry L. Wilson are adepts at the business, and if King county expects any favors at the hands of the coming state convention the Ple-maker is of the opinion that it would be wise for her to do business with Spokane. The political situation in this state is, to say the least, a most awkward one, and such a one as has never before existed in this state, especially since the Wilson-Ankney factions have been prominent in the affairs of the Republican party. As has been said, there are three senatorial candidates who have openly announced their candidacies. This divides the state into three great political factions, with the railroad push, which might be termed a fourth, watching one situation with the intention of allying itself with that faction which will concede to it the best terms. While Mr. Wilson and Mr. Ankney are bitter political enemies and under ordinary circumstances would do nothing to advance each other's cause, nevertheless their political interests are somewhat identical in this fight and in order to head off the McBride-Preston combination, which promises to sweep the entire state, they must to some extent join issues. Of course the railroad faction will throw its influence with the Wilson-Ankney combination and intends to extract therefrom the very best terms it can under the circumstances, but of course the circumstances which will draw Wilson and Ankney together in the coming state convention will be but ephemeral. That is to say, as soon as that combination can prevent the McBride-Preston forces from controlling the state convention they will again be at outs and their forces will fight each other as of yore. There will be no advantage whatever attained in the nominations that the next state convention will make, unless in the meantime the supreme court declares that this state is to elect a gov- SEATTLE SPIRIT Tracy Turned Loose. Despite the fact that hundreds of fortune hunters have been dogging on the footsteps of Harry Tracy, the escaped Oregon convict, nevertheless he has completely dropped out of sight and Sheriff Cudihee has called in his deputies, evidently regarding the chase a hopeless as well as fruitless one. It is rather remarkable that Tracy should have so suddenly dropped out of sight when the deputies and all concerned in the hunt have been sending bulletins to the daily papers every fifteen minutes to the effect "that Tracy had been sighted and would be captured within a few hours more." It is rather strange that Tracy should have been sighted and entertained so frequently and yet no one has dared to arrest the man. His escapades in and about Seattle read more like a dime novel story than facts, and yet they must be facts, as honest citizens have told them as such. If it was newspaper notoriety that Harry Tracy was looking for he has certainly got all that was coming to him and he ought to be willing to retire from the scenes in and about Seattle without further distrubing the usual quiet attending the business world this season. If there is one thing that can be said in Tracy's favor since he has come so prominently before the public it is that he has never lied. He has told his entertainers on all occasions that he was Tracy. He has given them facts and figures about himself and his meandering that have always been verified by the officers who have been chasing him. When he made his first appearance near Seattle he told those with whom he talked that he had killed Merrill, his co-partner in crime. This statement was doubted by many, but subsequent developments have substantiated Tracy's statements, as the dead body of Merrill has been found in Chehalis county in a badly decomposed state. This shows that Tracy is a prince as to truth and veracity, and this one thing can be said to his credit. There are other credit marks that are due Tracy, and no man can deny them. He has proven himself to be an able and sagacious . . . Tracy Told the Truth. ernor and three supreme judges, and in that case the fur will fly, as it is a foregone conclusion that W. L. Jones and Francis W. Cushman will both be nominated for congress, and it is also very apparent at this writing that Hon. W. E. Humphrey from King county will be nominated as one of three congressmen for this state, and if there is any fight at al it will be over the nomination for supreme judge. The McBride-Preston forces will doubtless endeavor to force the nomination of Judge Hadley, as his nomination will solidify the Northwest for them. Though having nothing against Judge Hadley, the Wilson-Ankeny push will doubtless through their influence to some other candidate, perhaps to Hon. John E. Humphries of King county, in order to show McBride he is not it. Speaking about congressional nominations reminds the Pie-maker that Hon. Will E. Humphrey has selected five well-known politicians as members of his steering committee who will endeavor to bring about his nomination in the next state convention. The personnel of his committee is as follows: Hon. J. H. Powell, ex-member of the state legislature; Hon. John P. Hartman, Jr., one of Seattle's leading and most influential attorneys; Hon. S. H. Piles, political leader and boss; Ellis DeBruler, right hand man and trusted lieutenant of Mr. Humphrey; Dr. Neagle, the well-known political wire puller. Perhaps no stronger steering committee could have been selected from among the present Republican delegates than the ones named above, and if there is any probably show of Mr. Humphrey being nominated there is no doubt but that these gentlemen will bring that about. The Pie-maker is of the opinion that his case is in the hands of a good jury and he will get justice, fair dealing and, in all human probabilities, a nomination. According to street rumor the King county delegation will not be called together for another conference until they meet in Tacoma for the convention. This has been deemed advisable for fear spontaneous combustion would cause an explosion in case the entire delegation once got shut up in one room. general by outwitting two hundred or more men, and they for the most part always having him almost completely surrounded. He has shown to them that one man with a cool, calculating judgment is worth a thousand men who run at random and with no more bravery in them than a ten-year-old boy, for it can be truthfully said that many of the men who were out doing guard duty would have thrown down their guns and run for their lives had Tracy suddenly appeared in front of them. Williams in Danger. So exciting has the man-hunt been carried on by the sheriff and his posses and so exciting have been the various bulletins that have been sent in from the seat of war that Deputy J. A. Williams has been lost sight of by the general public. The first reports declared him not seriously wounded and that he would soon be up and ready for duty, but subsequent developments show that he is far from being a well man and complications may yet set in that will cause him to lose his life. Up to the present time he has been too weak for the physicians to make any attempt to take the bullets from his body, and unless a more rapid im provement sets in it will still be a long time before an operation can be per formed on him and perhaps never Williams was a brave officer and if he had been properly supported at the time that he was shot it is more than likely that Harry Tracy would have ended up his wild career at that time Ten Thousand Dollars. "I am told," said a prominent Seatle the business man one day this week, "that the hunt for Tracy has already cost King county $10,000, to say nothing of the dead and dying that it has likewise cost this county and all because there was an oversupply of desire to rush in 'where angels fear to tread.' King county had no excuse whatever for sending out an army of men for the purpose of intercepting Tracy for any crimes he may have committed in Oregon, only from a humane standpoint, for his criminal acts was no funeral of the officials of King county. I admit that it was the duty of the sheriff to have sent out one or two SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JULY 18, 1902 . . . . . . men and if possible locate and arrest the man, but when an army of deputies was sent out for political purposes it was a mistake and one of the worst mistakes that has ever been made by any official in King county. I see the daily papers have already published severe criticisms condemning the sheriff's office and regardless of the motive that prompted them to have done so they were correct." Just why Harry Tracy has not been captured is the unexplainable thing just now. It seems almost beyond human speculation that four able bodied men could be in a steam launch with Tracy for twelve long hours, and part of that time he sat sound asleep and none of them were able to get the drop on him in order to effect his capre. No sane man will believe that such a condition really did exist. If Tracy could not have been over-powered at the Van Horn house when he held two men as prisoners and commanded a woman to cook his dinner while he changed his clothes, and was, as the men themselves reported, at times as far as sixteen feet from his rifle (that being the only weapon he had at that time), it was because the men and the woman had no desire to capture him. While The Republican is not inclined to be severe with the persons in the Van Horn house at the time Tracy was a visitor there, nevertheless it belives that those two men could have prevented Tracy from leaving the house if they had desired to do so. There is no doubt but that Tracy could have been captured at the Johnson home in Kitsap county if mortal fear had not come over those people, and they of all have a plausible excuse. When Tracy was at the Gerald home it seems to those on the outside that he was more among his friends than among his enemies. While the women there pretended to be quite afraid of Tracy and were held as prisoners, nevertheless they joked and entertained him without showing any great amount of fear that he would do them harm, and women cannot entertain any man when they really fear him. And now comes the most startling thing of the whole affair. Tracy at the Gardner home last Sunday commanded one of the boys to actually shave him while the father and the other son sat there all the time seeing it well done. Perhaps the Gardners would have been pleased to have captured Harry Tracy and turn him over to the officers of the law, but after reading this story no one believes they were. The man who has another man to shave him is completely at the man's mercy that is doing the shaving. That young fellow could have placed that razor at Tracy's throat and dared him to move, and Tracy would not have done so; yea, if he had desired to capture Tracy he would have been justified in cutting his throat. Instead of this he shaved him neatly and nicely, and when it was done he was told to go on his way rejoicing. Now if such is not aiding and abetting criminals to escape then it comes dangerously near it. One would have ample reasons to believe that Tracy has been among friends during his entire visit in King county. --- The financial troubles that hung heavy over the head of the Morning Washingtonian terminated in the appointment of a receiver and the subsequent sale of the paper to the highest and best bidder, which proved to be William Pigott, one of the heavy stockholders in the printing concern known as the Metropolitan Press, which concern has been issuing the Washingtonian since its unhappy birth. Mr. Pigott paid the princely price of $100.00 for the paper and thereby shut out those ambitious young politicians and office holders who desired to become famous as newspaper men by bucking the P-I., and launched the Washingtonian as a competitor, which will result in them losing in the neighborhood of five or six thousand dollars apiece, which they put into the Morning Rathole under the management of "Jene Allan." It is said that the paper was sold in order to protect the Metropolitan Press? Protect the Metropolitan Press? From the men who put up the money to start it? With the Allan brothers and William Pigott putting their heads together to skin some poor unsuspecting devil who had put his hard earned dollars in their grasp there is no denying the fact that they would protect themselves against even a Harry Tracy, to say nothing of honest men. In future the paper is not only to be snatched completely out of the grasp of the men who put up the money to start it, but it is to be Democratic in politics and thereby serving in now way the original intention of those who put up the money for its launching. He who wrote, "fool and his money soon part," mus ITEMS OF INTEREST have had in mind such men as wrecklessly dump their money in schemes and dreams where they furnish money and the grafter furnishes the experience. STEAMERS ARE SAFE. The long lost Portland and the Jeanie, in whom Seattle was personally interested, owing to the fact that they had a great many Seattle citizens on them, are reported sound and safe and already homeward bound. The Portland and Jeanie have been overdue for months, and they have doubtless been tied up in the ice which caused their delay. But regardless of the cause of their delay, it is exceedingly gratifying to know that neither of them have gone down, and that their crews and passengers are all safe and well and will soon be home again. If it be true that there are persons in the King county delegation who want Frank Brownell of Snohomish county for congress because he (Brownell) has property interests in king county, it seems that such delegates ought to tumble all over themselves in order to give their support to John L. Wilson, who has twenty times the property interests in King county as has Brownell. Say, fellows, we suggest that you be a bit more consistent in your political cat-hops. Third Avenue Theater The management of the Third Avenue Theater are up to date. They have dramatized a version of the exploits of Tracy and Merrill, the Oregon outlaws, and will present it in dramatic form at the Third Avenue theater next Sunday night. The dramatization follows very closely the news paper accounts of the doings of these two of the most noted criminals of the century. New scenery has been painted for the production, and a company embracing nearly 100 people will be used in the production. Mr. Frank Readuck, who is one of the principal authors of the play, will enact the part of Tracy. Mr. Clark, an actor new to Seattle, will play Merrill, and R. E. French has been specially engaged for the part of Sheriff King. All of the principal characters of recent events will be seen in the dramatic performance. From an English standpoint the social success of American women depends on their "splendid dressing, self-possession, freedom from shyness and a superlatively good education." A Mormon temple was dedicated in Copenhagen, Denmark, July 5th, at which 300 American Mormons were present, and among them was ex-United States Senator Frank J. Cannon.

For the service of the Empress Dowager of China large numbers of Manchu girls are taken to the palace and are made perpetual slaves of.

An Illinois war veteran who draws a pension of $30 per month has recently written the department asking if there was not some way of discontinuing his pension until he actually needed it, as he had plenty from a financial standpoint, and he thought it was wrong for him to continue drawing the pension. It is the first of its kind on record. The personnel of the Swedish cabinet, which has recently been formed, is as follows: Premier, Erik Gustav Bostrom; minister of foreign affairs, Carl H. T. A.

LORD SALISBURY RETIRES. The retirement of Lord Salisbury from the premiership of England is the ending of a long as well as useful career of one of England's most noted public spirits. While Lord Salisbury may not have charmed the world to the extent of many of England's former premiers, among whom might be named the grand old man, William E. Gladstone, nevertheless he has proved a safe and trustworthy official in whom the head of the English government could always place the most implicit confidence and feel absolutely certain that it would be successfully carried out. It is only hoped that Hon. A. J. Balfour will prove as personally valuable to the government as has Lord Salisbury. In the House of Commons Mr. Balfour has been a conspicuous figure and an able leader, and he will, no doubt, be equally conspicuous at the head of the government. WU IS RECALLED. The able and efficient Chinese minister, Mr. Wu, who has so long represented the Chinese government at the courts of the United States, is to retire and to be succeeded by Sir Liang Chen Tung. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that Mr. Wu is the ablest representative that the far East has ever sent to this country. Early in life he was most favorably impressed with the Ameri can idea of doing things, and he soon became a student of the customs of this country and adopted many of them, perhaps even to his own detriment, as it is generally believed that he has been recalled on account of his broad-gaged ideas, which, to some extent conflicted with the mummy-like ones of his home government. Mr. Wu was very popular in diplomatic circles here and likewise very popular throughout the country in a social way. It was but a a few days ago that he was banqueted in Atlanta Georgia, such as no other dark-skinned man ever was before in that city. His successor is, however, quite popular already, as he has been attached to the consular service in this country who is a merchant of Calshaum; minister of worship, Varl of Friesen; minister of agriculture, A. T. Odelberg. The ministers of foreign affairs, war, marine and agriculture held the same position in the Von Otter cabinet. The state of Missouri has 284,886 farms, according to the state census, which are valued at $843,979,213. The total value of farm property was $1,033,121,897, which includes $28,602,680, as the value of farm implements and machinery, and $160,540,004 as the value of live stock. The total value of farm products for 1899 was $219,296,970, of which 45 per cent. was in animal products and 55 per cent. in crops, including forest products, cut or produced on farms. The total value of farm products for 1899 exceeds that for 1898 by $100,545,946, or 100 per cent. The gross farm income of the state for 1899 was $161,344,610, and gross income upon investment 16 per cent. "If Ed Cudihie does not redeem himself by some brilliant stroke, John Wooding will win in a walk-away."—Whatcom Revelille. The Republican hopes to see John Wooding win, but not on the principle that some daredevil murderer should escape from Sheriff Cudihie in order to better Wooding's chances of winning. Regardless of party affiliations officers should do their duty, and when they have done their duty they should not be censured because fortune does not favor them in capturing a criminal. Governor McBride is being scored by the state press at a terrible rate just now for his interference in local politics in the various counties. We remember of the governor putting his finger in the local politics of Seattle, and we remember of his having been set down on pretty hard, and we supposed the politicians in other counties are equally as astute as to their own interests as they are in King county, and it is no surprise to us to hear of the governor being sat down on whenever he attempts to dictate to local politicians.

THE FIGHTING SENATE. The recent fistic escapade, in which Senator Joe Bailey of Texas and Senator Beveridge of Indiana were the leading actors, reminds the writer of the fact that during the session of the senate that has just adjourned more fistic combats and free-for-all fights were reported among its members than ever before in the history of that august assembly. It has been a stormy session and frequently the members were worked up to the point of boiling over and almost threatening to pinge the country into civil war. Not since the days of 1859 and 1860 has there existed such strained relations between the North and South in the Senate as those in the last session, and, as in those days, it was the fighting blood of the South that came prominently to the front in the session just closed. The first disgraceful escape that was reported was when the brute Tillman of South Carolina rushed across the senate floor and struck his colleague McLaurin in the face on account of the latter declaring on the floor that Tillman had uttered a malicious and wilful lie. The two men were for the time suspended, but they were finally exonerated and permitted to perform their duties as usual, although the consensus of opinion throughout the country was that "Tillman, and perhaps McLaurin, too, should have been expelled from the senate. Following close after the Tillman-McLaurin embroglio Senator Money of Mississippi had a street fight with a street car conductor, and the senator showed his true Southern spirit by pulling a knife and using it quite freely on theiligent conductor. He, however, was worsted in the battle and was arrested for assault and battery, but the case was dismissed without coming to trial. Senator Carmack of Maryland was the next to lose all respect for senatorial dignity, and he, in a heated colloquy with Senator Doliver, threatened to do up his opponent then and there, and further added that if he (Doliver) would say the same things outside of the senate chamber he (Carmack) would use his best endeavors to put him in a condition that he would never again be able to make use of the language which was so objectionable to him (Carmack). The affair was finally hushed up and no blood was spilled. It, nevertheless, showed that Senator Carmack was ready for a fistic combat at any time the opportunity presented itself. The last fight reported was that of Senator Joe Bailey, who, having been bested in a spirited debate over the Filipino question with Senator Beveridge of Indiana, demanded a retraction while the senate was yet in session, and that having been refused he brooded over his wrath until the senate had adjourned, when he pounced on his opponent from the rear and threatened to do him personal violence if he did not retract it that moment. While Bailey weighs about 200 pounds and is said to be an athlete, Senator Beveridge weighs only 140 pounds, but the Indiana man defended himself quite well and prevented his antagonist from doing him any violence until Bailey was pulled off by Senator Spooner, the smallest member of the press U. S. senate.

Ku Klux Klan Origin. An article that appeared in the Times a few days ago to the origin of the Ku Klux Klan in the Southern states, which organization flourished during the reconstruction days, was misleading, untrue and, in fact, a flat- foot le. Certain it was that the or ganization was started with the in tention of intimidating the Negroes after the war, because the slavehold- ers made the poor whites believe that the Negroes, after they had been emancipated, wuold prow! around the counttry like bandits, would, like de- vouring animals, kill and massacre the whites wherever they were crossed or found. The poor whites, believing this and spurred on by a few criminals from the upper class of whites, or ganized the Ku Klux Kian in order to ‘wreak vengeance n the blacks for having been freed, and the active oper- ations of the order, which resulted in the death of many of the Negroes, was nothing more or less than a continua tion of that order which existed in slavery days known as “patrol rollers.” While the former merely whipped Negroes, the latter murdered them, but in both cases it was the Gepredations of the poor whites, who had been told by the upper class of whites that Negroes must not be al lowed to visit around the countrty lest they rise in arms-and murder all of the whites, and they thus patrolled the entire country without pay, be lieving that they were doing their country a great good and likewise pro tecting their wives and children. Ever since the “mind of man runneth not to the contrary” the upper class of whites in the South have sought to array the poor whites in mortal com bat against the blacks, and likewise the blacks against the poor whites, and their efforts, it must be admitted, have been crowned with glorious success, and this is responsible for much, if not all, of the race troubles in the South, Southern White Savages. Speaking about the strained rela- tions existing between the blacks and the whites in the South reminds the writer that history does not record more criminal career on the part of the “whites” against the “blacks” than. that which has existed in the South since the first Africans were brought from their native heaths in 1620 by a Dutch trading vessel. It is remarkable the amount of savagery that cultured and refined whites have shown along this line. No human be- ing not living in the South can con- ceive for a single moment the tor. tures that the black people were forced to endure under the slave's lash. No human being not acquainted with the actual, facts can conceive for a single moment the barbarity and al- most superhuman cruelties that were perpetrated on the blacks by white Christian (?) men under the direction of the chief of the Ku Klux Klan, Men, women and children were shot, murdered and whole families extermi- ‘nated without anyone knowing what was even their fate. No human being not personally acquainted with the facts can ever conceive for a minute the awful tortures and the innumer- able murders that have been commit- ted by cultured and refined (?) whites of the South on the Negroes from 1876 to the present time for political pur- poses. Men who dared to vote con- trary to the wishes of the Southern white voter were shot down and mur- dered in every conceivable, cold- blooded way that might be expected at the hands of any barbarian in dark- est Africa, No one not wholly ac- quainted with the circumstances and facts has the faintest idea of how only supposedly criminal Negroes have been mistreated and inhumanly dealt with since the war. Not only have they been burned at the stakes, but in manay instances compelled to light the fagot fire which was to extermi- nate themselves, and they have actual- ly been forced to cut off their own fingers and toes and made to eat them, anad this was done in the presence of men, women and children for thelr emolument and edification of all whem, perhaps, attended church serv- ices with the devoutness of a saint the following Sunday and sang long and loud of “Moses and the Lamb.” Summing it all up, it seems to the writer that instead of the Ku Klux Klan being organized to maintain peace and order in the community, like all similar organizations in that| country, it was but the fertile imagina- tion and concentration of a savage brain to devise some new barbarity to inflict on a helpless people, all of whihch proves beyond a reason of doubt that those persons who are superficially educated and Christian- ized are still in the thraldom of in- tense savage superstition. Accumulated a Fortune. ‘uere is at present living in this city an Afro-American who, perhaps, was at one time the most conspicuous man of his color in the entire country, and was so because of the fact that he had begun business as a common barber and ended up by owning’ real property and other valuables to the value ot over a half million dollars. The man here referred to is none other than Dan Miles of Duluth. He is plain “Dan Miles,” and by that every. day name he was dubbed by every body in Duluth and its immediate vicinity because of the fact that he knew everybody, was frend to every. body and was connected in a business.

Many years ago he moved to Duluth, and, aecord- ing to the grapevine telegraph, began operations in a one-chair barber shop, Dut Dan Miles was not born for such humble callings, and he was not long in making a mark for himself, as he soon began the accumulation of real estate, and he proved such a shrewd and sagacious investor that it resulted in him owning real estate in a few ‘years which was conservatively valued at $500,000. It is sald that Mr. Miles as met severe financial reverses of recent years, and is now casting his lot in the West with the view of re- cuperating his fallen fortune; however, this is speculation, as he keeps his own counsel, but there are those who knew him in business in Duluth who openly declare that Seattle will yet know Miles as did Duluth. Whether or not it is the intention of this Black Prince of the financial world to east his lot here is unknown to the writer, but he has learned from many sources that Miles has many friends in Seattle who will do him a good turn if it comes their way, and some who will even do more and go out of their way to do him a good turn. It is to be hoped that he will again pull himself to gether, if it be true that he has met reverses, and soon stand as well in the financial world here as he once did in ‘Duluth.

Ridpath has set for such deeds, has always been quite in this way with the labor unions unexplainable, but he went, and, pokane, his chances of securing strange to say, succeeded in not only endorsement from this county for going to the senate but to represent SPOKANE, July 16—The predictions made a week ago concerning the Republican county convention which meets Friday of this week can be reiterated with still more certainty at this time. The best information is that John L. Wilson is playing masterly politics, while his opponents are weakening rather than growing in strength. Everything at the present writing looks toward the success of Wilson at the primaries. He probably will have an ample working majority in the convention, will be able to organize, and will nominate the legislative tickets he chooses. There is no reason to think more than one or two anti-Wilson men will secure places on the legislative ticket. Perhaps he will be able to defeat them all. As to the county ticket, he claims that he is not interfering in any manner. During the week two legislative positions already have practically been determined upon. These are the two candidates for senator in the only two districts of the county which will elect senators this fall. In the Sixth Senatorial district, which comprises all of the Second ward of Spokane, the fight between Frank D. Shaw and Harry Rosenhaupt for the support of the Wison followers has been settled by the withdrawal of Rosenhaupt from the race. Ed Saunders, the anti-Wilson man, still is in the race, but it is not likely that he will be able to defeat the Wilsonites when they are united as they now are for Shaw. In the Seventh Senatorial District the situation is quite similar. A hard fight was on between J. A. Schiller and Fred Dudley for the support of Wilson's friends for senator. Schiller has won and Dudley has been forced to withdraw and make a fight for the lower house. The result is Schiller probably will defeat J. W. Merritt, the anti-Wilson candidate, without much trouble. In this connection it will be of interest to know what forces contributed to the success of Shaw and Schiller. Both Shaw and Rosenhaupt were members of the last house of representatives. The latter was the author of the bill which bore his name and which attempted to reduce railroad freight rates. Of course the railroads were against Rosenhaupt on that account. But Shaw did not vote against them, which gave him their support, which is believed to have contributed to his success. With Schiller and Dudley in the Seventh district the fight was the same. Dudley is pronounced against the railroads and quite bitter against them. Therefore they assisted Schiller in forcing Dudley out of the race. There is another fact of considerable interest to Republicans in all parts of the state. Shaw and Schiller, if nominated and elected, will not only vote for a successor to Senator Turner, but for a successor to Senator Foster. It is generally understood that both Shaw and Schiller will be for Senator Foster two years from now. Marshal C. B. Hopkins engineered this matter for Mr. Foster, which practically insures two votes for the senator's re-election two years from now, and of course makes him anxious that the two men be elected if nominated. What is of still more interest, it shows that Hopkins is working in perfect harmony with Wilson. The Roosevelt Republican Club, which is the anti-Wilson organization, has had considerable trouble this week. Some of the members have resigned and withdrawn; the secretary, A. C. Burrows, has quit them with a red-hot resignation, in which he said he would have nothing more to do with them as long as they refused to endorse Mr. Dooley, the president of the Trades Council for a legislative position. There also has been trouble over money matters. With some of the members it is the old adage, "the love of money is the root of all evil." it is understood that Mr. Ankeny is putting in considerable money in Spoina county. Henry W. Greenberg and J. W. Merritt are said to be custodians. During the week Col. W. M. Ridpath has settled with the labor unions of Spokane. The trouble grew out of the erection of the Ridpath block in this city. The contractor employed nonunion men, and for it the building was placed on the unfair list by the unions. The unions placed a fine of $500 on the colonel, which he refused to heed until he found himself a candidate for nomination of congressman. The unions positively refused to have any to do with Mr. Ridpath or to ten to his candidacy until he set, which he did a few days ago, the colonel paid the $500 in cash. Noack was given and no receipt was en. the nomination of congressman are very slight. If the anti-Wilson forces should gain control of the county convention, which no one thinks they can do, it is likely Mr. Ridpath might be indorsed, but it is not probable that Mr. Wilson's friends will permit anything of the kind. The colonel would not only like an indorsement by resolution, but he would also like to have the naming of the delegate to the state convention. The Spokane county delegation to the state convention will most likely be for Jones, Cushman and King county's man. Whitman county, too, has a candidate for congress on the Republican ticket. He is I. N. Pickerell, an attorney of Palouse City. He has been indorsed by his county and will receive at least a complimentary vote. It is not expected, however, that he will be able to do much more. The Lincoln county Republican convention has been held and a full ticket nominated. The legislative nominees are George E. Smith of Sprague and J. E. Howard of Davenport. The convention indorsed Jones, Cushman and Foster, indorsed the governor's attitude towards the railroads, including the railroad lobby, the merger and the commission bill; adopted a plank making it an offense punishable by fine, imprisonment and forfeiture of office for any public official to accept a free pass or ticket from a railroad company, and adopted a plank in favor of the election of United States senators by a direct vote of the people. In this connection it might be noted that the counties which are most certain of sending Democratic delegations to the legislature are the ones which have been indorsing the action of the governor most enthusiastically. SPOKANE PERSONAL. The A. M. E. Church gave a "peanut" social Thursday evening, which was a splendid success. Rev. J. B. Beckham is expecting his brother, Rev. W. M. Beckham, to visit the convention to be held here July 24th. Mrs. Albert Pierson left Tuesday morning for Des Moines, Iowa, where she will join her husband, whose condition is reported as quite serious. Mr. and Mrs. Henry High, of St. Paul, stopped over Friday and Saturday in Spokane. Mr. and Mrs. High intend stopping a while in the Sound cities before returning to St. Paul. Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Thomas, of Des Moines, Iowa, are visiting Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Mash. Mr. Thomas is a very prominent lawyer of Des Moines. it is their intention to visit the Sound cities. Sunday evening there was a rally at the Calvary Baptist Church. The members of the church have been raising money to help pay off the church debt, and an inducement in the shape of a beautiful china closet was offered to the lady who raised the largest amount of money. Mrs. A. Hagan was the victor, having brought in $31.50. Her close second was Mrs. Sam Thomas, who raised $30. The congregation was favored with a baritone solo by Mr. J. C. Payne and a soprano solo by Miss Minnie Brown. CURRENT COMMENT the Southern members of the senate at the last session, which prompts the writer to think that the average man from the South is drifting more toward savagedom than that higher civilization of which this country boasts so much. Bailey a Big Brute. The writer was not astonished to hear of Joe Bailey taking advantage of a man below his physical class and jumping on him while he was at a disadvantage, and that, too, from the rear, as he was at one time personally acquainted with Mr. Bailey, having been born but a few miles from him and knew of him doing many similar cowardly acts. When young Joe Bailey lived in Copiah county, Mississippi, he was considered the bully of the neighborhood. He was nominated on the Democratic ticket for state elector, which elected Cleveland in 1884, because of the fact that he could boast of more "nigger" scals hanging from his belt than any other man of his age in the state. It was sport of the most pleasing nature to him to willfully, maliciously and with malice afore thought go out and shoot down without a moment's warning innocent Negroes. Just why he should have left his native state and have gone to Texas, when he was so favorably considered by his Democratic constituents for such deeds, has always been quite unexplainable, but he went, and, strange to say, succeeded in not only going to the senate but to represent his district in congress for a number of years. It can be safely said that no man from the South has exhibited more real savagery while trying to play the part of a gentleman, save and except Ben Tillman, as has Joe Bailey. Preston Brooks, the South Carolina ruffian, who struck Charles Sumner over the head, which resulted in the latter's death, was a gentleman in comparison to Joe Bailey and Ben Tillman. Speaking about the senate which recently adjourned, notwithstanding the fact that it is to be handed down in history as The Fighting Senate nevertheless a vast amount of money was appropriated by it for public improvements, thus showing some financial as well as fighting qualifications. Unless some hitch occurs, eighty-four and one-half millions of government money will be distributed in the states and territories by the two great appropriation bills passed by the last congress. For the improvement of harbors $65,107,602 was appropriated and for public buildings $19,425,450.

Scott is the name of a gentleman of color who is sojourning in the city at present who has in his possession papers and valuables showing that he took a conspicuous part in the late South African war, being in the service at the time of the English government. Mr. Scott talks interestingly as well as entertainingly about the South African country and Africa in general, and thinks it is a splendid place for the ambitious American Negro with a little money at his command to make a fortune. Those of the natives who have received more or less education and civilization are anxious that their better informed brothers from the United States come among them and teach them more as to the customs and manners of this country, that they can the more readily advance their country to a higher state of civilization. He is of the opinion that many of the stories told about the heathens in Africa are fabrications, for the heathens have traveled from ocean to ocean and from South Africa to the most northern point and has never as yet been molested by any of the natives. Though American born, being the first colored child born in the city of San Francisco, nevertheless he is much the Englishman at present, and speaks in the highest terms of the English government and its management of those persons of color under the protection of its flag. He is visiting this country again, and is traveling at easy stages from the Pacific to the Atlantic and thence to the Cuban Islands, whence he will return to South Africa, perhaps, to make it his home. He has written a brief story of Africa and its conditions, from which the reader can learn many facts which are verified by the author concerning darkest Africa and its inhabitants. E. R.

The office door was a little ajar so that a gentle push of the foot was all that was nec- essary to open it wide enough for him to enter, He stepped just over the threshold, Hé nibbled first at the foot, then at the bread. Delibtrately he swallowed, and then said: “Whehe’s Misteh Old-ham at?” “That's my name,” responded the man at the desk. “What's troubling you?” “Is you a lewyeh?” asked the man, dubiously, “I may not look it,” was th eanswer, “but Iam so listed in the directory.” “Lithed whehe?” lisped the Negro. “In the directory. But then, tut tut; such subtle humor is lost, I see. Let's to business. There is a piece of news- paper and a radiator. Pig's foot wrap- ped in newspaper and deposited on radiator would be a commendable move?” “Sah?” “An excellent illustration of darkest Afnica,” sighed the lawyer. “I said stash the hog knuckles on the heater. Now sit down and talk quick. What do you want?” “De-voce.” “How long have you been married?” “’Bout foah months.” “What happened?” “She's afteh pestehring me.” “How?” ' “She done call me a Ginney nihheh.” “Anything else?” “Yes, sah. She sade I wah a no count an’ trifiin’.” “What did you do?” “What you reckon I done? I handed heh this all doubled up.” “This all doubled up” was his large, greasy fist. “Where did you hit her?” asked the lawyer, becoming interested in the narrative. “Leff tye. You se, she’s yallow. Now heh left eye is bout my colah,” meaning thereby black. “Look-whehe, Mistah Old-ham, how much ahe you goin’ to chahge me fob that ole de-voce?” A nominal sum was mentioned. “But does I get hit?” asked the man. “Oh, no, I get that,” replied the law- yer, smiling at his remarkably quick repartee. “Doggone,” laughed the Negro, fall- Ing into the lawyer's keen humor, “1 means does I get the de-voce ef I pays the money?” ‘The judge.decides that,” answered Mr. Oldham, with dignity. “You and I merely present the facts and he deter- eines.” tAlaska Central Railway Co.

Ef mahhiages is made in heaven, then that place must a ben closen’ when me an’ heh wah tied up. They ain't no two ways bout it, you or the Jege must make heh ‘Miss’ onst moe. You- all must fix hit so’s I can keep com- pany wiff some otheh ladies an’ not be dangeh of sudden death evhy time the doe open oh some pusson comes up behind.” “But you sald you struck her?” “Coase I did, Didn't 1 tell you she call me a Ginney niggeh an’ a no-a- count, an’ triftin’? Do you reckon jess cause a man is mahhied he's got to be a angel? I don’ low no lady to call me no Ginney niggeh, specly my wife. I aint no Ginney niggeh. Coase 1 given heh wahnin’. 1 say: ‘Look hehe, don’ you use no sech language Cause this house 18 small an’ they is jess room e-nuff foh one an’ l-am-that- one.” "The last four words were sald with Impressive slowness. The Negro stopped speaking. “Well?” asked Mr. Oldham, “what happened?” “She sade hit oust moe an’ I am ly in’ thene yet” ‘The lawyer mused for a moment ‘Then he sald: “You don't want a divorce. You see i you told the judge about hitting her—” “But she call me a Ginney niggeh. “T understand, As I said, if you tol the judge about hitting her he would probably give her the divorce and you might have to pay alimony.” “What's that?” Why you would have to pay he about halt your salary every week probably for the rest of your life.” An’ she could give that to some otheh gemman, She could do as she pleased with it.” The Negro started up suddenly. He stepped to the radi ator and picked up his pig's foot anc bread. “Where are you going?” asked the lawyer. “To fine my old woman.” “You are not going to make any trouble are you?” “Trouble nuthin’. I'm goin’ to fin heh before some otheh gemman look: hich up an’ tells heh about that ali mony. Misteh Old-ham, they ain't n reason why me an’ hich cain't ge along togethen.
