POLITICAL POT - PIE
VOL. IX. NO. 9
. . .
Going over the list of big counties that have already held their conventions, it will be seen that Walla Walla endorsed Ankeny for United States senator and Jones for re-nomination to Congress but did not even mention Cushman. King county endorsed Harold Preston for United States senator and likewise endorsed Cushman and Jones and unanimously endorsed Will E. Humphrey for the third congressman for this state. Whitman, while it did not endorse either Preston or
Ankeny, endorsed a railroad commission bill, which was the same as endorsing Preston, and yet it nominated a legislative ticket, which perhaps is most decidedly infavor of Levi Ankney. It endorsed Jones for re-nation and its own home candidate as one of his associates. Spokane county endorsed the candidacy of John L. Wilson for United States senator and nominated both Jones and Cushman, though it made no reference to the third member of congress; it, however, so it is reported, was very favorable to the candidacy of Will E. Humphrey
. . .
After all there promises to be quite a crop of congressional candidates before the coming state convention. Off course the two members of congress, Cushman and Jones, are candidates for re-nomination, and there will be a large number of favorite sons from this and that section and many of the counties of the state up for like honors. Whitman county has endorsed L. N. Picklerre as its congressional candidate. Spokane had an aspirant for congress in the person of Col. Ridpath, but he having been defeated in the primaries, his name will not be presented by the Spokane delegation. Thurston county has a candidate for congress in the person of A. J. Falknor, who has twice represented his county in the state legislature. Jefferson county has a congressional candidate in the person of Charles E. Coon, who is something of a political factor in the politics of that section of the state. King county has a congressional candidate in the person of Will E. Humphrey, who has been endorsed by the county convention and has been favorably mentioned by other county conventions of this state, and aside from these there are dark horses gaol. Among them is Frank Brownel of Snohomish.
. . .
Speaking about the actions of the Spokane convention, a prominent west side politician said that it looked to him a good deal like that an understanding had been reached by Wilson and Preston, and that if Mr. Preston did not have strength enough to have himself elected United States senator he would most likely turn what strength he could to Mr. Wilson and

vice versa. There is no doubt but that Senator Wilson could have beaten Governor McBride so badly in Spokane that the governor would not have known where he last saw Spokane at, but for some unknown reason the senator did not do so, on the other hand, he made no effort whatever on the convention floor to oppose the commission bill, and if that does not look as though something was doing in Wilson-Preston circles then I am badly mistaken.
. . .
In speaking about the matter to a friend of Senator Wilson he remarked: "Why should Mr. Wilson lend the railways any assistance? Did not the railroads in Spokane or their agents do everything in their power to defeat Mr. Wilson in the primaries? Every railroad man in Spokane worked like a 'Dick Naylor' to land the opposing tickets in every precinct in the county to that advocated by Mr. Wilson, and why should he, after he had won the fight in spite of them, lend them any assistance in his county convention? If it be true therefore, as has been surmised, that a truce has been formed between the Wilson and Presston men it is plain to be seen that the railroads will support Mr. Ankney in the coming senatorial fight and the rank and file of the party will support either Wilson or Preston.
. . .
If the holding of an early convention on the part of King county has been of any benefit to any one as yet, the Pie-maker has not been able to figure it out. The nominations, it must be admitted, have been made and the aspirants for office know where they are at so far as nominations are concerned, but the convention having done its work and adjourned, it has been as completely forgotten as if it had never been held and there will be no signs of political life before next September, and even then not until the state convention has adjourned and the Pie-maker is of the opinion that trading has been very scarce, and in short nothing has been accomplished by the early convention.
"Forty-Niner" Gone.
The Pacific Coast lost a very notable man last Sunday when John W. Mackay, the California multi-millionaire passed away in London. Mr. Mackay was a "forty-niner" in California and turned his attention to mining as soon as he arrived in the country and by sticking to his chosen profession he amassed a fortune such as but few men of this country could boast of Early in his career he formed a partnership with three other men, all of whom became the most conspicuous financial figures in California, namely, Flood, Fair and O'Brien, all of whom have long since died. Mackay died in London, after a brief illness last Sunday, surrounded by his wife and immediate friends. His fortune is variously estimated in the hundreds of millions, accurate figures of the exact amount being impossible to be stated at present. He, however, owns reality scattered along from the Pacific Coast to London. Mr. Mackay was another most brilliant example of what a gritty American could and would accomplish when once he set his mind to do so.
A Hopeless Invalid.
It has been confidently given out by those who have every opportunity to know, that King Edward is a hopeless invalid, notwithstanding the reports to the contrary that he is rapidly recovering from his illness. Coupled with his sickness it is further reported that the king has a superstitious fear, which naunts him by night and by day, to the effect that he will never be crowned King of England and his continued illness but adds to his mental discomfiture. King Edward, who was to have been crowned King of the British possessions the 26th day of last June, suddenly became "seriously ill and the ceremonies had to be postponed. In as much as the coronation ceremonies were to be the greatest display of royalty of the age, it was thought that it should be postponed for one year, but the superstition having grown so strong on him that he would never be crowned King of England, it was decided to leave off the pomp and display and have the ceremonies performed August the 9th next, on a much less elaborate plan and, if he is physically able to go through with

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
It must be true that "a sucker is born every minute," as the Common wealth of this city is still able to find those even in Seattle, who are vain enough to be bilked by its slick tongued solicitor, to put his picture in the paper.
Seattle had two hot days of sunshine last week and more complains could not have been registered if Lucifer had have transferred Hades to this section of the world than was heard by the citizens of the entire Puget Sound country.
Capt. George B. Lamping is to be orator of the day at the Renton barbecue, given by the colored folk, August 1st. Now as D. W. Griffin, the erstwhile journalist, is head push of the celebration, Lamping's friends are wondering how much the honor cost him.
That fellow, who bought a $3,000 house for $5,000 and is paying his taxes and keeping up other municipal expenses, and is renting the property for $40.00 per month, may have a good investment in his hands, but it will take time and a good deal of it to prove it.
There may be no great amount of benefit derived from camping out for a season, but it is the fad of the day and the family that does not keep up with the prevailing fads of the community in which it lives is worse than a "back number" and that's saying a good deal.
"It is a cold day when your Uncle John gets left," said a Seattle acquaintance of John L. Wilson last Monday morning near Cohen's corner. To this the Spokane wizard made no reply, but, from the broad bland smile that spread over his face, he evidently heard something that tickled his do-funny box.
From the number of pleasure excursions that leave Seattle every week one hailing from the south might be lead to believe that the far-famed Seattle spirit is badly touched with the "Sam Johnsling" blood, which prompts the Aunt Dinahs and Uncle Ephs to take in every "dollah scursion" that some their way.

the exercises, it will be performed or that date and thereby relieve the suspense and worry that have given him much mental anxiety ever since his first coronation disappointment. In King Edward should fail to be crowned King of England complications as to the heir apparent to the throne would set in and it might result in that government being completely overthrown and a Republican form of government established in lieu thereof.
Many Sunday Fatalities.
Last Sunday proved to be rather destructive both to human life and property in a great many sections of the United States. Near Rochester, New York, two trains crashed into each other and one person was instantly killed while twenty others were more or less injured, some, it is thought, fatally. A fierce tornado swept over the country in and about Baltimore Maryland, doing much damage to life and property thereabouts. Nine persons were drowned in the harbor while others were injured on the land and many boats and bouses were destroyed by being blown to pieces. News from Keokul, Iowa, were to the effect that a damaging flood spread over the country south of the city caused by the Mississippi overflowing its banks and doing a vast amount of damage to the farms. It is estimated that the flood did damage to the value of $6,000,000. No loss of life is reported, though quite a few of the residents of the lower district have not been accounted for.
Alfonso An Insane.
Royalty in Europe is evidently having a hard pull of it these days, as the announcement of King Edward's illness is followed by a similar announcement that Alfonso, King of Spain, is driving into a hopeless insane. His mind shows a decided weakness in more ways than one and it is thought by medical experts that he will never direct the affairs of his government for no other reason than on account of his mental aberrations. The cause of the King's troubles arises from his persistence in associating with low and vicious people. Frequently he unobserved leaves the palace dressed as a laborer and seeks dance halls and
places of vice where the laboring people and immoral characters congregate and where he drinks, revels and carouses the same as they. This has been a weakness with him for many years and it is thought that his youthful mind has been completely upset on account of the liberty that was given him in this direction before he became king. Some years ago the Prince of Wales, now King Edward, was charged with the same licentious disposition, and if it be true, that he is now a hopeless invalid, there are those who will claim that it is but the results of his youthful indulgence in circles more vicious than holy, like unto those that have superinduced Alfcoso's troubles.
The Sadest of All.
And now comes the saddest story of all as to royal degeneracy, and it is that which has come over Queen Marie Henriette of Belgium. This queen but a few years ago was one of the most fascinating as well as attractive women in all Europe. She was courted and carressed by men of noble and humble birth, by women of royal and common families, in fact she was loved by all not for her wickedness, but for her nobleness—nobleness of soul and character. She is now a recluse and seeks the society and associates of no one save her pet dogs and other animals. Queen Marie is in complete state of melancholy brought on, perhaps, by over-indulgence of pleasures and entertainments. Speaking but a few days ago for publication, she said: "I am thoroughly soured. I, who in times past, was so gay, am ill from loneliness. I have only my dogs to amuse me, and am already forgotted." It will thus be seen that even in slow going Europe persons who are brilliant today are forgotten tomorrow, comparatively speaking, and unless they are able to keep up with the procession by making an imposing appearance every day they are soon thrown aside, forgotted and, using the language of the poet, "become old and only in the way."
Celebrated the Fourth.
The Chicago Tribune follows its habit in the past years of giving a list of those killed and injured by the celebration of the Fourth. The record of injured is 2,649, of killed 31, and the total damage done by vre $250,155. Analyzing the tale, we find that fireworks were responsible for 731 casualties, skyrockets for 110, cannon for 368, firearms for 546, gunpowder for 422, and runaways caused by explosions of various kinds for 29.
Had Many Accidents.
In Philadelphia 439 persons were injured and one killed, giving that city the record for injured. The largest number of killed was in Chicago—four—but there the list of injured was comparatively light, the total number being but 111.
In New York no one was killed and only 73 injured. In Boston 200 were injured; in Kansas City, 134; in Albany, 31; in Bessemer, Mich., 33; in Belleville, Ill., 51; in Cincinnati, 53; in Detroit, 37; in Grand Rapids, 30; in Kansas City, Kan., 36; in Racine, Wis., 37; in St. Louis, 54; in St. Joseph, Mo., 50; in St. Paul, 30; and in Troy, 95. These places show the greatest losses, the other cities and towns in the list (the total number given is 157) varying frog 1 to 30.
The greatest fire loss was in Lee, Ill., where the damage was estimated at $100,000. Boston lost $10,000 by fire; Dixon, Ill., $50,000; Kansas City, Mo., $26,000; Kansas City, Kan., $2,000; Los Angeles, $18,000; Leadville, $1,500; Milwaukee, $2,000; Mansfield, O., $10,000; New York, $3,000; Providence, $3,000; Rochester, $1,500; St. Louis, $3,000; Syracuse, $3,000; Stockton, Calif., $1,500; St. Joseph Mo. $3,000; Toledo, $2,500; Troy, $2,000, and Wilkesbarre, $2,000. Twenty other towns and cities reported losses of less than $1,000.
Some Negro Progress.
The following excerpt taken from a lecture delivered by Bishop Alexander Walters in Indianapolis a few days ago will be of much interest to the readers of this column.
"In 1863 we possessed nothing; today our personal and real estate is valued at more than seven hundred million dollars. We have brankers, merchants of all classes and a large number of planters. Homes, 175,000; farms, 150,000; school property, $12,000,000; church property $37,000,000.
"Our intellectual progress has been greater than our financial growth. The Negro has shown himself to be the equal of any other race in intellectual possibilities. This is evidenced by the high honors taken by Afro-Americans from the wealthiest and most influential institutions of learning in this country. We have proof of my statement in the person of Roscoe Conkling Bruce, who a short time ago won signal honors from Harvard, the most famous educational institu

tion in America.
"Within the last thirty years we have been able to eliminate nearly fifty per cent of our illiteracy. We have 1,500,000 children in the public schools and 40,000 students in the higher institutions; students learning trades, 20,000; teachers, 30,000. There are 250,000 volumes in Negro libraries, 156 institutions for higher education; 500 physicians; 250 lawyers; 1,200 books written by Negroes, and 400 newspapers under our management. "We consider this a creditable showing for thirty-eight years of freedom."
A Political Farce.
Editor John L. Thompson and wife of Des Moines, Iowa, were among the Afro-American visitors to this city during the past week. Mr. Thompson and wife were delegates to the Council which convened in St. Paul not long since and incidentally attended the Afro-American editorial association which held its session in the same city and at the same time. Speaking about the labors of the Council, Mr. Thompson is of the opinion that it has resolved itself into more of a political club than an institution for the benefit of Negroes. Scheming politicians are now at the head of it, who are using the institution for the benefit of political aspirants both national and otherwise. The election of T. Thomas Fortune as president almost disrupted the organization and he is of the opinion that the Council will never hold another successful meeting. With such men as Fortune, Cyrus Felds Adams, and a few other man, who have no ambitions or aspirations in life beyond the serving of cheap John politicians at the heads of the institution there is no hope of it accomplishing any good either now or any time in the future. Mr. Thompson is the proprietor of the Iowa Bystander and makes bold to announce that it is the only Republican paper edited by a colored man in the entire state.
For the benefit of the young ladies and gentlemen of color in New Jersey an Industrial school fashioned after Tuskegee will soon be set on foot there.
Governor Van Sant delivered the address of welcome to the National Afro American Council which recently met in St. Paul, Minn.
The emmigration from Ireland is on the decrease. In 1901 there were but 39,807 Irish emmigrants, which was a decrease of 7,237 in the 1900 figures.
As a remedy against hoarseness a flannel rag dipped in hot water and sprinkled with turpentine bound about the neck is recommended as a most excellent remedy.
Caracas, Venezuela, recently experienced an earthquake shock doing considerable damage in that city and the same shock doing slight damage to a number of other towns in that country.
The largest swamp farm in the world is situated in Indiana, within fifty miles of Chicago. It spreads out over 32,000 acres that were bought for $5 an acre ten years ago, and are now worth $100 to $125 an acre.
Rival aspirants for the United States senatorship from South Carolina to succeed McLaurin have reached the duel fighting stage of the game for the endorsement of the state convention for that nomination and election.
Bishop Henry Codman Potter, the well-known Protestant Episcopal bishop, who is sixty-seven years of age, is to soon marry a Mrs. Clark, who is fifty-two years of age. Bishop Potter is perhaps one of the most widely as well known divines in this country.
The Cherokee Advocate, the only paper ever printed in an Indian tongue, is about to suspend publication owing to change in the government of the five tribes. The Cherokee is the only tribe having a written language. It was invented by Sequoyah, a Cherikee, in 1826.
Capt. Shroud, of the steamship Centennial has given it out that in his opinion gold in large quantities will be extracted from the sands of Bering Sea at no very distant date. Already companies with the view of mining the ocean bed in Bering Sea have been organized.

SEATTLE SPIRIT
Last Saturday morning Col. George G. Lyons, after a brief illness, died at his home. The announcement in the morning paper caused general surprise, as but a few in the city even knew that the colonel was sick. In the death of Colonel Lyons the journalistic world loses one of its most able as well as effective writers, notwithstanding the fact that during his later years he has been connected with a gigantic financial scheme, the harnessing of the Snoqualmie Falls into making power and light for the surrounding cities even extending to Portland, Ore. Prior to that time he had been engaged in editorial work on various papers, among them was the Post-Intelligencer. As editorial writer of the various papers with which he was connected no man in the Northwest was a greater success and as said in the outset the journalistic world will miss so able a writer as he.
Col. George G. Lyons was perhaps one of the most remarkable men of this city, having came here from Nevada, where he was highly connected in official circles, he at once became the center of attraction in political circles and gained a prominence in a few months among politicians that would have taken other men a lifetime to have attained. Notwithstanding the fact that he stood high in the counsels of his party, he never aspired to hold an office and he therefore continued to grow in strength so long as he had ambitions along such lines as he pursued among politicians. Another remarkable thing about the colonel was that for a period during his political career in this city he became addicted to the use of intoxicating liquors and for a few years he drank to such an excess as to cause his friends and admirers to think that he was hopelessly lost in the sea of drunkenness, but he went just so far and no farther, and when he willed to break away from that life he apparently did so with perfect ease, and a few years later saw him again a well-dressed gentleman hobnobbing with the biggest financiers that visited the

The census bureau has issued a report on the manufacture of pens and pencils in the United States for 1900 shows that a total of $3,671,741 was invested in this manufacture in the fifty-five establishments reporting for the United States. The value of the products is returned at $4,222,149; wages, $1,192,405; materials used, mill supplies, freight and fuel, $1,747,852.
During the year 1901, 68,695 trees were planted in South Australia by the government, which is interesting itself in the forestation of that section of the country. For the most part these trees have proved to be very thrifty plants and are growing very rapidly but in the Ayers district only 42.25 per cent have thrived owing to the ravages of the grasshoppers, which are very destructive in certain seasons of the year.
According to the 1901 census of France, which has just been completed, the total population of that country is 83,961,954, showing an increase of 444,613 as compared with 1896. The same census also shows that the population of Paris is 2,714,068, and there are fifteen towns in the country with populations of 100,000 and upward. This is an increase of 3,000 over what population of 1896 showed of towns containing 100,000 and upwards.
The principle religions of Japan are Shintoism and Buddhism. While these two religions are practiced largely among the uneducated, neither of them is practiced to any great extent among the more refined and educated. In a class of 409 students in higher institutions of learning in 1898, as to religions there were found 1 Confucianist 15 Buddhist, 4 Christians, 60 Atheists 282 Agnostics and 46 who were non-committal. A recent census of Japan shows that at the end of 1901 there were 46,634 Protestant Christians in Japan, an increase of 4,183 over the previous year.

town. Colonel Lyons was remarkable above the average man because of the fact that he could give way to drink as he did and then brace up and become such a powerful factor in the business world as he later on became.
Speaking about Colonel Lyons excessive drinking reminds the writer that there is another man in this city whose name for modesty's sake is withheld from the public, who snatched himself from the jaws of absolute drunkenness and by force of will power made a man of himself, such as not only his immediate friends and relatives are proud of, but such a man as the community at large is very proud of. The man here referred to was so completely dragged to the slums that he was looked upon at one time as not only a drunken sot, but without sufficient mental strength to long keep himself out of an insane asylum. He is now a prosperous business man of Seattle and gives much evidence of being one of the deepest thinkers in his line of business. Such men are to be complimented and commended to an even greater extent than those men who have never fallen or have never indulged in vices that they could experience reform. It is hardly the proper thing for a man to become vicious in order to reform that he could point with pride to the time w.en he was a devotee of the prevailing vices of the age, but the man who does do so and can look back over the day when he was all but ruined and had by his own will force of character successfully snatched himself from that life, is to be congratulated above all others.
The trail of Tracy is no longer heard of. After a hot pursuit lasting forty days by posses, bloodhounds and citizens in general, he has been given permission by all concerned to rest in peace and to go wherever he has the inclination. One would never have thought that a man could escape from a state prison and be immediately pursued for five or six hundred miles with everybody trying to capture him and yet escape, but this is just what this man Tracy has done, and he has so cleverly escaped that perhaps he himself at this time does not know where he is at.
He or she, who in their more youthful days read Ivanhoe's beautiful story, the principle character in which is Don Quixote, never expected to really see the story duplicated in actual life, and yet in the escape of Harry Tracy it has been. The various posses that were out looking for Tracy seemed to have been haunted with just such a phantom as was Don Quixoto, and the capping climax of the whole fiasco was when Sheriff Cudihee and his six picked men charged the lonely cabin in the woods, where the desperado was said to be confined, firing as they ran and commanding the inmates to surrender. After they had riddled the cabin with bullets, and opened the door they were chagrined to find that there was not even a sign to indicate that Tracy had ever been there. That the sheriff and his men must have felt just as did Don Quixoto and Sancho Panza storming the army of windmills thinking their opposing knights, is highly probable. No wonder the sheriff at once gave up the chase and returned to town an utterly disappointed and disgusted man. Having defied and outwitted a thousand or more men it is now in order that the Hon. Harry Tracy be invited hither and given the freedom of the city and be elected to the office of sheriff of King county in lieu of its present incumbent.

If it is the intention of the Demo-
cratic party to find someone who has
not been mixed up in factional fight-
ing to nominate him for the presidency,
they had better give up the idea right
now of even nominating anyone for
that high honor in 1904.
Most anyone acquainted with the

Mr. Jones for a land office position in

Notwithstanding the fact that Fort
“Trust” is poorly defended and the
enemy is plain to be seen, President
Roosevelt seems to find trouble in get-

instead of charging the fort stop to

Attorney Bruce of Whatcom is will-

the first two persons charged with

simply had the art of lying down more

Congressman Cushman was warmly
received by his Tacoma friends one
day this week on his return from

sneezed at even by the Seattle spirit.
There are a good many persons in

a governor is to be elected. The Su-

sooner this is done the better it will
be liked by the general populace.

is correct for no other state could have
produced such a monster in human

It is interesting to see Cleveland,

the other two, declaring both of them
responsible for the Democratic discord

thinks it Cleveland and Bryan. It is

Before Walter Fulton retires from
the prosecuting attorney's office of this
county and after he has convicted Paul
Underwood for the murder of his three-
weeks old baby, it might not be out
of place for him to snatch up a few
of the “400" in this city, who make
a habit of murdering their babies by
the aid of skillful physicians.
A Democrat has suggested that the
Democratic party is well rid of bad

Yes, and when such a brace as that
Join hands with George Piper, The Re-

Republican party is capable of bearing
up under a pretty heavy load if it
manages to lug the trio without break-

James Hamilton Lewis declares that
he cannot be prevailed upon to run for
office this year. When pressed fo. an
explanation he poked out a No. 10
foot mashed into a No. 7 shoe, which
had vainly struggled to hold its pris-
oner, and the foot gave evidence of
its rather cramped quarters by not
being able to bear the weight of its
beau brummel master; further expla-
nation was wholly unnecessary.
Stewart Gayton of the Rainier Club
is mistaken in thinking “stewards are
dishonest if they take commission
from vendors.” All merchants put
aside so much for the middle men,
who sell goods for them, but when they
can sell their goods in lump lots to
one person and do away with the mid-
dle man, they think it a legitimate
Proposition to cut the expense thus
saved in two with the person who
brings such sale about, and the ones
putting up the money for the purchase
need not necessarily be robbed of a
single penny at that.

Col, W. M. Ridpath’s candidacy for
congressman never got into the con-
vention. He, as well as the other
anti-Wilson forces, was so completely
routed at the primaries that he made
no attempt to secure an endorsement
or to name the delegation to the state
convention. The colonel is sore and
is vowing vengeance.
‘The passing of Ridpath did not trou:
ble the waters of Spokane Republican-
dawn:
‘The feature of the convention was
the adoption of a railway commission
plank in the platform. It had been
generally understood up to the night
before the convention that the platform
‘would deal lightly with the question of
railroad legislation and that the at-
tempt to endorse a railroad commis-
sion bill would be given a scant sup-
Port, but Governor McBride, ex-gov-
ernor MrGraw and others unexpectedly
arrived in the city the day before the
convention and immediately set to
Work to strengthen the plans of those
who intended to demand a commission
plank in the platform. The friends of
John L. Wilson and many of the lead-
ers of the party in the county remon-
strated with the governor that it
would not be good politics to empha-
size this question in Spokane county,
Dut the governor would listen to no
compromise. The result was that his
commission plank was adopted without
opposition, Senator Wilson was disap-
pointed, but it was the only disappoint.
ment he received at the hands of the
convention, The commission plank
was advocated by many of Mr. Wil-
. son's friends, but he himself did not
think it wise. The governor, however,
was delighted at the result and ex-
press his delight when called upon la-
ter in the day to address the con-
Seation.
she cdmmission plank adopted is a
strong one—about as strong as could
be framed, It instructs the legisiative
delegation to do everything which can
honorably be done to secure the adop-
tion of a railway commission to con-
sist of three members not more than
two of whom shall be from one party,
the three to be appointed by the gov:
ernor and to have power to fix, regu:
late and control passengear and freight
rates, to furnish information to county
officials for purposes of taxation and
to correct abuses. Further, the dcle-
gation to the state convention is di-
rected to obtain, if possible, a similar
plank in the state platform.
‘The action of the Spokane county
Republican convention on the railway
commission issue was unexpected and
will have an unexpected effect on the
policy of the Republican party in the
state. Had Spokane Republicans gone
to the state convention at Tacoma
and used their votes and influence
against a strong commission plank, it
is probable that with the support which
the railroads could secure from other
sections of the state the commission
plank would have been defeated with
little trouble, but Spokane will not
only vote for a commission bill but
there will be a number of bright fel-
lows at the convention who will make
a hard fight for it. As almost the en-
tlre Eastern Washington degelation
will favor the same action and as it
is supposed there will be some con-
siderable support for the bill from
Western Washington, it will give the
railroads a big fight to defeat it. In
fact the railroad question promises to
be the big issue in the Tacoma con-
vention. The roads will not expect
to be able to do anything with the
Democratic party and know they must
defeat the commission plank in the
Republican convention if they do not
want the measure carried by the next
legislature.
But the railroads are preparing to
spring something on the public in this
state which they hope will offset all
the work which has been done against
them and which they believe will pre-
vent the passage of a commission bill
by the legislature next winter. They
have started through different sections
of the farming districts a movement
which already has been heard of and
seems to be working as desired. ‘The
farmers are asking the railroad traffic
managers to meet them in the near
future and go over with them the ques-
tion of freight rates and see if some
relief cannot be determined upon
which would be acceptable to both
sides. It is believed the roads intend
to comply with this request and then,
of their own accord, grant material re-
duetions in the charges for hauling
wheat tomarket. When this is done
they will go before the next legislature
and say to those members who are
pledged by the platforms of their par-
ty to vote for a commission bill, that
the action of the roads in granting gen-
erous reductions has eliminated the
necessity for legislative action. It is
possible that the roads will grant these
reductions even before the next Repub-
lican state convention in order to pre-
vent that body from adopting a plank
favoring a commission.
| The Spokane county Republicans
‘endorsed both Cushman and Jones for
renomination. It is the general be
lief here that both of these congress:
men will be renamed for their present
positions. All parties in the sena-
torial fight seem anxicus to keep Jones
out of the way as much as possible in
order to prevent his being a trouble-
some and dangerous factor in the sena-
torial race. Cushman is popular in
Eastern Washington and the Republi-
cans of this part of the state will not
look with sympathy on any effort of
Senator Foster to turn down the Ta-
coma congressman. It is to be sup-
posed that King county, too, will favor
Cushman for if King county does not
get a senator this session she will be
all the more anxious to defeat Senator
Foster two years hence and secure the
place for a Seattle man and it is sup-
‘posed that it would be easier to defeat
Foster if Tacoma has a congressman
than if she is without other represen-
tation at the national capital. As to
the third congressman, Hon. W. E.
Humphrey can have the place if he is
any good as a politician, and reports
say he is. Both Senator Wilson and
Mr. Ankney will be glad to weaken
‘King county's chances of securing the
senatorship by giving Mr. Humphrey
the nomination. If their anxiety to
lessen Mr. Preston's strength — these
other aspirants may even be willing to
give the supreme judgeship to King
county.
If there should be a governor to
nominate and elect this fall, Eastern
Washington will have one candidate
for the Republicans and another for
the Democrats. Few people believe
that the supreme court will decide that
a governor is to be elected this year,
but if such should be the decision, S.
G. Cosgrove, of Pomeroy, will be at
one put in the race by the Republi-
cans, On the other hand Mayor Byrne
of Spokane will be a Democratic can-
didate unless the Turner Democrats
of the city can prevent it and it is not
likely they would dare attempt it.
‘The Republican convention of this
county was quite disappointing in one
particular. Those who thought the
militia would have to be called out to
prevent the annihilation of elther the
Wilson or the anti-Wilson faction,
were mistaken. ‘Those who believed
the auditorium would need a coat of
asbestos paper to prevent a conflagra-
tion and the chatrman a coat. of mail
to prevent his mutilation, were de
ceived. ‘The delegates were as harm-
less as a King county posse. Every:
‘thing passed off as quietly as if there
were no such persons as Levi Ankney
and Col Ridpath. Perhaps it was be
cause x0 few of the leaders of the
anti-Wilson people succeeded in get
ting into the convention, Alonzo M.
Murphey, who was chosen chairman
by a big majority, had no trouble in
panagtng the convention, in spite of
the fact that it was an unusually large
fone. The convention was not the kind
that could be stampeded. There were
many of the most representative Re
publicans of the city and country in
it, and they did their work surprising-
ly well, When the primaries were held
and it was announced that the Wilson
forces had won, the Democrats were
rejoicing because they pretended to
think that the endorsement of Wilson
would injure the ticket enough to give
them a chance to elect a portion of
their legislative nominees. But since
the convention adjourned and the
character of the ticket has been exam:
ined the Democratic leaders are not
half so enthusiastic as they were
‘They still claim they can beat some
of the legislative nominees, but they
can find nothing to say against any
man on the ticket from judge down to
constable. Never in the history of
either the Republican or Democratic
pact ie or Gpomans crits waa ai sier
‘cleaner, stronger ticket been named
“AIL elements of danger were carefully
‘weighed as the members of the con
vention passed down the list and made
their nominations. ‘The nomination of
candidate for treasurer is but one ex-
ample of the care taken. Auditor Hub-
bard who has served two terms and
has administered his office unucually
well, desired a nomination for the po-
sition of treasurer. Because of his per-
sonal strength he was in a fair way to
win, in spite of the fact that there was
a wide belief that it would weaken the
ticket to give a man a place on the
ticket who already had served two
terms in the court house, But the con-
vention hunted about and in the last
moment picked up a very popular
young man, G. E. Goodspeed, and nom-
inated him, In this way every pre-
caution was taken. The result is that
Democrats, Wilson men, anti-Wilson
men and Prohibitionists unite in de-
claring their satisfaction with the
ticket.
For the legislative positions good
nominations were made in all cases
and the contests were void of bitter-
ness. Weil known citizens of excel-
lent reputation and known abilty were
chosen. Of the members of the last
house, Frank Shaw secured the nomi-
nation for senator in the sixth district,
Harry Rosenhaupt, who was a candi-
date for the same place, withdrew be-
fore the primaries, Storey Buck was
defeated because he insisted on’ go-
ing to the legislature unpledged or
not going at all, and Dr. C. G, Brown
finally decided not to ask for a nomi-
nation. a
It seems to be the general belief that
the anti-Wilson sentiment will not be
as injurious to the legislative ticket
this year as it was tow years ago. The
convention has come out squarely and
endorsed John L. Wilson for senator
so that there will be no uncertainty on
that point. Those of the less bitter
opponents of Mr. Wilson are content to
take their defeat gracefully. Further,
many of the more conservative of the
anti-Wilson men of two years ago
were in the convention this year open-
ly supporting the ex-senator and advo-
cating his endorsement.
As to John L. Wilson and his broth-
er Harry L. Wilson they have played
masterly polities. Nothing in the his-
tory of the state compares with the
remarkable manner in which they have
managed matters in this county this
year. They so manipulated their cam-
paign as to line up for them the Fos.
ter men, the Preston men, the Jones
men, the railroad men, the anti-rall-
road men and even the Turner men.
And two months ago two-thirds of the
Republicans of Spokane county includ.
ing hundreds of the senator's best
friends, did not believe he ever again
would control a Republican convention
in Spokane county,
‘The campaign in Spokane will not be
started before the first of September,
perhaps not till after the state conven-
tion. No one has an idea who will be
chairman of the campaign committee.
It is not apt to be Mr. Pugh, who
served during the last campaign, He
says he does not want it. Alonzo M.
Murphy, who was chairman of the con-
vention, may be urged to take the posi-
tion. T. D. Rockwell is spoken of,
but is not likely to be chosen, Some
favor Ed. Saunders and others would
like to see Harry Rosenhaupt accept
the management of the campaign. The
Democrats probably will not nominate
a county ticket for six weeks.

One would hardly think that they
are a part and parcel of the greatest
and most highly civilized nation in
the world if while passing through the
lower end of this city, which is desig-
nated as “below the dead-line,” in the
evening they would stop and look
around for a few seconds. A ride
through that section of the city by
one living in the resident portion
would reveal to them things that they
never dreamed of as being in actual
existence. Teeming as it is with ev-
ery form and phase of humanity and
with glaring red lights shining from
every window, behind which gay wo-
men are plainly seen dressed in the
“see-more” style, with here, there and
everywhere bands of music and all
kinds of musical instruments peeling
forth the latest ragtime music, with
the clinking of glasses and bottles and
the natural uproar coming from so
‘many persons closely congregated and
the whole capped with two or
three different kinds of religious sects
singing and praying at the tops of their
voices in the streets, the deadline dis-
trict at that time presents a phantas-
‘magoria that no civilized human being
would expect to see if he could look
{nto such fairy land as is pictured by
the most imaginative brain. If such
fa state of affairs is necessary to pro-
duce a first-class city the writer is
‘of the opinion that most any civilized
person would prefer to. not live in a
first-class city than to have the city
in which they live overloaded with
such human pests. Amid all the din
and bustle of vice and vieiousness may
be seen little girls and boys playing
about the streets and running in and
out of the dance halls and drinking
places just as pacifically and as inno-
cently as those little girls and boys
who live in the resident portion of the
city play about their own yards. With-
jout any intention to picture Seattle's
“deadline” district as any worse than

theless, after one has done nothipg

of the city and the moral laws are
broken with impunity and that too

It is amusing to see a policeman stand

Unless someone is murdered or some

as images of rock or stone, and they
never see a passerby unless the same
has a cigar or something else more
substantial to offer him for the nour-

The Willing Workers of the A. M. E. Church on Fourteenth Avenue will give an entertainment at the church next Tuesday evening.
Mr. J. A. Williams has returned from Spokane. He was present at the late county convention there and saw the animal as it really was.
Rev. N. D. Hartsfield, pastor in charge of the Newcastle-Franklin circuit of the A. M. E. church, was a visitor to the city last Tuesday.
Messrs. Tutt & Gayton have opened up a bath room in connection with their barber shop and cordially invite you to their establishment for tonsorial treatment.
Mrs. Sam Brown went to Seattle Monday to join her husband, who is now employed there. She was accompanied as far as Cle-Elum by a great number of friends.—Cascade (Roslyn) Miner.
Among the prominent recent arrivals in this city is Mr. H. H. Harvey of Tucson, Arizona. Mr. Harvey intends settling in the city and immediately identifying himself with the commercial interests of this section.

Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Griffin of Portland visited in Seattle last Wednesday and Thursday. They were returning from the Afro-American council meet in St. Paul. Mr. Griffin was not very favorably impressed with some of the great men of the East.
Revival services will start on Sunday evening at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Rev. J. Gordon McPherson will be assisted by Rev. J. L. Allen of Portland. Prayer services Sunday and Monday. Preaching Tuesday night. Bible reading every afternoon at 3:30 p. m., commencing next Wednesday.
Will Dixon, a young fellow about town, was stabbed one day this week by a man just hailing from Missouri, with whom Dixon got mixed up in a scrap. A warrant was sworn out for the arrest of the man, who wielded the blade, but the day for the preliminary hearing has not been definitely fixed as yet. He has been charged with assault and battery with intent to do great bodily harm.
The Silver Dollar rally given by the Mt. Zion Baptist Church last Sunday proved to be a most successful one, and in the neighborhood of $200.00 cash was received and subscription amounting to nearly $1000.00 were pledged. Rev. McPherson is quite hopeful now of being able to soon begin the erection of a church of his denomination, faith and belief in this city.

SPOKANE HAPPENINGS.
The county convention over, the Afro-Americans received some slight recognition, two delegates on the floor, the sargeant at arms, and one delegate to the state convention, Frank L. Wilson, the well known caterer, being selected for that honor, and consequently Mr. Wilson will visit Tacoma September 10th. The Afro-Americans of Spokane are just at this time doing themselves proud by entertaining the Colored Baptist State Association, which convened in this city on the 24th with the Rev. J. P. Brown of Roslyn in the chair as moderator. Among the delegates and friends present are the following: Rev. J. P. Brown and Miss Jennie of Roslyn, Wash.; Mr. Franklin, New Castle; Mrs. L. S. Smith, Roslyn; also Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Bagley, Mrs. Adelina Barnett, Mrs. Mattle Perry, Mrs. Anna Donaldson of the same place; Rev. J. Gordon McPherson, Andrew R. Black, J. F. Cragwell and Mrs. Ben Williams of Seattle; Lawrence Sledge and Mrs. H. C. Rice of Tacoma; Mrs. Franklin of Everett, and Rev. J. L. Allen, Portland. The delegates were comfortably cared for by Mesdames J. P. Ball, Hagans, Smith, J. Jones, Breckinridge, Tom Jones, Mayo and Rev. Beckham is apparently pleased with the avidity with which his members volunteered to care for the visitors, that all of them will leave the city with a good impression of the hospitality of Spokanites goes without saying.
While the business of the convention is being carefully managed the social part promises to cut no small figure, which includes a trolley ride for the visitors, a picnic at beautiful Montrose Park, a view of the falls, army post and other places of interest.
Organized by leading business men of Seattle, peals to the pride and patriotism of every American, and especially every American resident Seattle.

Spokane was visited this week by three newspaper men, A. D. Griffin of the New Age, C. W. Thompson of the Iowa Bystander, and the local man of the Seattle Republican. If Spokane don't get a little "free advertising" this week, then the citizens of this city are slow.
Miss Ethel Sanderlin, daughter of Mrs. J. H. Ryan, is home for the summer after a two years' stay at Oberlin College. She will return to the East in September to finish her course.
Burr Williams, late of Portland, is in the city and contemplates entering the business field at this place. Burr should make it stick.
Harry Robinson, a "precinct politician" of St. Paul, passed through the city Sunday en route to Tacoma.
Rev. Bailey, P. E., was in Spokane this week finishing up the work at this point prior to attending the annual conference which meets at Portland August 20th.
Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Griffin spent several days in the city en route to their home in Portland, Or. They report a pleasant trip to the National Press Association, of which Mr. Griffin is an honored member.
C. W. Thompson of the Iowa Bystander reports a pleasant trip and speaks in fulsom praise of the Sound.
Mr. J. A. Williams, the well known attorney, returned to his home in Seattle after a pleasant stay of a few days in the city.
R. E. Scott, Chinese inspector for this district, is in Seattle this week on business connected with his department.
Mrs. E. H. Holmes has returned to the city after a few weeks' visit to Havre, Mont., her former home.
The majority of the hotel men on the Sound will be surprised to know that Reynold Robinson is married and assumed all the responsibilities incumbent on one in that condition. For fear that he will not be known it is only fair to state that while on the Sound he was known as "The Loving Dove."
Mr. C. A. Hughes, late of Portland and San Francisco, is in the city looking over the business opportunities.
With C. A. Hughes, E. H. Holmes and Ollie Williams lining up with the Democrats, it begins to look as if the Republicans will be compelled to "play ball."
A visitor to the court house will find very little to encourage the average Negro Republican voter. The only Afro-American employed in the county is now employed by a Democratic county treasurer, and while the writer was discussing the coming campaign with a Republican the "old chestnut" was rung that "we freed your people, etc." to such fellows we say "change your hop" and get a "fresh pipe." Now seriously, to the above Republican, or any other one, in fact, "take the tip." "cut out" that kind of talk. Its votes

The election of a U. S. Senator is involved with such measures as the "Crumpacker resolution" coming up, it behooves any Negro to ask his representative how he would vote on such a measure. The local situation will be sized up in this column often. The Negro vote in Spokane county numbers in round numbers about 300, and they must be respected.
