Seattle Republican

The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT - PIE VOL. IX, NO. 13 Senator George Turner has been doing Seattle for the past week and still lingers about. In an interview given to The Times Senator Turner says he is confident that the Democrats will win in the coming fall election, and thereby insure his return to the United States senate next year. Senator Turner don't believe any such thing. He don't believe that there is a ghost of a show for him or any other Democrat to win. Perhaps no Republican will win either, for each of the aspirants may be so strong and neither of them being willing to concede to the other nor to elect a dark horse and thereby deadlock the legislature, but if that is not done Senator Turner believes as do all of his followers that a Republican is going to be elected to succeed him in the United States senate from this state in 1903. Of course the Senator stands ready to take advantage of any mishap that might overtake the Republican party and therefore he is not wiling, nor would it be good politics on his part, to admit three months prior to the election, that the Democrats are already beaten, and therefore the senator is only whistling to keep his courage up, but he knows in his heart of hearts that he has no show of being re-elected next year, but what he is doing at the present time is shaping the Democratic party to his own ends, that he may in the future be its sole dictator. Sometimes to be the head of a party machine is worth a good deal more to the individual than party success, and it looks as though Senator Turner is shaping his fortune, to that end. . . . "I knew four weeks ago," said a prominent Republican politician to the Ple-Maker one day this week, "about the deal that you mentioned in the political Pot-Pie last week referring to Will H. Parry and others grooming Sam Piles for the United States senate, and I had intended to speak to you about it, but was called away and hadn't seen you before it came out in the paper. When I read it I was puzzled to know where you got it, but you had it pretty straight and I was glad to see it come on as it did. There is no doubt of the fact that Parry is working on the Piles senatorial boom with all his heart and soul and not only Parry but a lot of other fellows who are holiering Preston on the streets. Sam Piles, as he is commonly known throughout the city and perhaps the state, is a first class man and a red-hot Republican, but the time is not ripe for him to go to the United States senate, and, regardless of the Seattle spirit and its activity in whipping Seattle politicians into the support of a Seattle candidate just because he is from Seattle whether the politicians favor such person or not, the promoters of the Sam Piles coup are doomed to defeat. The Republicans in convention assembled have decided to support Harold Preston for United States senator, and while the Republicans in convention assembled did not decide that if Mr. Preston was not a candidate who they would subsequently support if he should retire from the fight, nevertheless the individual Republicans decided that they would support whomever they pleased when Mr. Preston was no longer a candidate, and when Mr. Preston retires, if he ever does, the delegation is going to be divided between John L. Wilson and Levi Ankney in spite of what Piles, Parry or any one else may say to the contrary, and in spite of the Seattle spirit coming to the front to whip them into line for the election of some unknown quantity. --- Whatcom, Thurston and Chehalis counties have held their conventions since the last issue of The Republican and each of them decided to fight Governor McBride's railroad commission bill. The governor was not expecting such a body blow from the largest county in the northwest, and when seen on the streets of Seattle one day this week he was looking rather dejected from a political standpoint. Unless the Pie-maker is sadly mistaken the governor sees the handwriting on the wall and it looks like defeat for him. Pierce county is against the governor and on a call vote it is highly probable that a majority of the delegates from King county will vote against the governor's railroad policy, and if a majority vote against it it is quite likely all of them will vote against it, and with these two big counties against him aided by Whatcom and Snohomish it begins to look as though the next Republican state convention will not insert an anti-railroad plank such as Governor McBride would have it do in its plat form. If the governor fails to get the convention to instruct for the insertion of his plank in the plat form he has failed as a politician in --- SPOKANE POLITICS the very outset of his career and his nomination for governor, which he is fighting for, will fall flat two years before it will be time for it to come before the nominating convention. In other words the governor must win in the fight he has undertaken at the coming state convention or he had as well retire from the political field for all time to com for, in the language of the under world, he will be a dead one. . . . According to The Times and the Spokesman-Review John L. Wilson has lost Whatcom county. The Ple-Maker remembers that both of these papers said that Wilson had lost Spokane county as well, but somehow or other Wilson named every nominee for the legislature from that county and named every delegate to the state convention, and if the same condition of affairs exists in Whatcom county it is more than likely that The Times and the Review are preaching and publishing their prejudices to Wilson rather than the absolute facts of the political situation in the various counties of the state. Unless the Pie-Maker is sadly mistaken Whatcom county in the next legislature will give Preston one vote, Ankney two, and Wilson two on the first call. What the results will be when either Preston, Ankney or Wilson drops out of the fight, if they ever do, is more than the Pie-Maker would dare predict at this time, but he is of the opinion that Wilson has more friends in Whatcom county, who will be in the next legislature, unless a Democratic landslide should overtake the county, than any of the already announced senatorial aspirants . . . But a few more county conventions are to be held when the tale, so far as nominations and endorsements are concerned, will have been told. The conventions which are to be held will from a senatorial standpoint favor Wilson and Preston with perhaps one Ankney vote. All of the counties will be against McBride. Spokane, Aug. 27.—The recent visit of Senator Preston of Seattle to Spokane and the friendly relations which seem to exist between him and the leading Wilson men of the city have caused comment. In case Senator Wilson finds it impossible to secure his own election next winter he will not throw up the spunge entirely and go home leaving the legislature to select whom it chooses without regard to his wishes. He does not do things in that way. Those who recall the circumstances surrounding the election of Senator Foster remember that when Senator Wilson found it impossible to secure his own choice he made terms with Foster which insured that gentleman's election, and which have been able to keep Senator Wilson prominently before the people of the state during the past two years and have made him remarkably influential in all matters of federal patronage. Senator Wilson is bitterly opposed to the election of Levi Ankeny. He has a two-fold reason for wishing to defeat the Walla Walla man. In the first place he dislikes the man with a dislike which is akin to hate. Second, if he can not be elected this year he desires that the man who is elected should be a resident of the west side of the mountains. If Mr. Ankeny or any other man from the east side is elected this winter it will mean that Mr. Wilson will have no chance two years from now. But in Mr. Wilson can not win for himself this year he gives himself another chance two years hence by throwing the election to the west side of the state. . . . On the other hand, what is the position of Harold Preston? Some of his best friends are friends of Senator Wilson. When Mr. Preston was in Spokane prior to the Republican convention he expressed himself as believing that Senator Wilson should be given his own county and he never showed any sympathy with the fight which Ankeny made against Wilson nor did Mr. Preston make any attempt to secure the nomination of any legislative candidates from Spokane county who would be for him for senator. Further, Mr. Preston is not a wealthy man, in fact can be considered a poor man, and it is believed he would look to disafford on the election to the United States senate of a man whose most prominent recommendation is his wealth.

The Spectator is one of Washington's brightest and best weeklies and it is already to Tacoma what The Republican can is to Seattle, "its leading weekly." . . .

Edison. that in the last session of the legis lature the entire Ankeny following bitterly opposed and succeeded in de- feating the railroad measures which Mr. Preston and his ally, Governor McBride, had their hearts set upon. The governor never has forgiven Mr. Ankeny and Mr. Preston liked it no better. But Senator Wilson in no way interfered in the doings of the last legislature. On the contrary his friends were in most cases the warm friends of Senator Preston and sup- ported the Preston railroad legislat- ion. . . . Under such conditions does not a natural alliance lie between Wilson and Preston? Many people are beginning to think that while the alliance is not made, the parties thereto are placing themselves where it will be easy to bring about a uniting of the forces when the proper time comes. In fact the forces of Senator Foster in most cases are working for Ankeny, which of itself would throw the Wilson and Preston people together in opposition to any Ankeny-Foster combine which may develop. But it may be a little difficult for the supporters of Wilson and Preston to agree on a plan of fusion. If Wilson can go into the fight with more votes than Preston it is quite likely that the Preston men can be induced to later turn over to Wilson a large portion of the Preston strength. But in Preston starts out with a bigger vote than Wilson it is probable that the Preston support will not have the staying qualities that the Wilson strength will possess. It is supposed that the forces of Preston are not bound to him as strongly as are either the forces of Wilson or Ankeny. This will make Wilson the stronger of the two if a merger of their forces is made. It would mean that the Preston strength is more apt to go to Wilson than is the Wilson strength to go to Preston. But if Wilson is convinced that he can not win it is probable that he will gladly give the Seattle man his support rather than give it to Mr. Ankeny. . . . The Populist party in Spokane county has done the unexpected and has called a county convention t. place in nomination a county ticket. The Populists in a general way are friendly to the election of Senator Turner, but they refused to listen to the wishes of the senator, who ear- nestly desired a basis of union be established between the Populist and Democratic wing of the Democratic party. Perhaps it should be said that the Populists were more willing than were the old line Democratic friends of the senator. It was the latter who refused and continue to refuse to listen to any fusion talk and say they prefer to go it alone rather than to make terms with the Pops. At the meeting of the Populist central committee last Saturday Senator Tolman, a Democrat of the stalwarts, urge the Populists to abandon their organization and come into the Democratic party as Democrats. They refused. They said they had asked the Democrats to agree upon a line of fusion but their request had been turned down. But they appointed a committee which has the power to agree with the Democratic convention on a line of fusion, but it is not believed the Democrats will listen. John Coffeen urged the Populists to go into the Democratic party, or at least he pretended to. The Democratic county convention meets on the sixth of September and the Populist convention on the 13th. The Socialist party will also meet on the 13th to name a county ticket. . . . George Mudgett, county treasurer, is left in an uncertain position by the recent action of the Populists calling a convention. Mudgett, who himself is popular in Spokane county, is a Populist, but he was elected on the Democratic ticket when his own party placed no ticket in the field. But now if he declares himself a Populist he will antagonize the Democrats. They may refuse to place him on their ticket if he does not come out as a Democrat. On the other hand, if he declares himself a Democrat and accepts a position on that ticket the Populists may refuse to name him on their ticket, which would seriously lessen his chances of re-election, for while he is generally popular his greatest strength lies with the Populists. At the present time Mr. Mudgett says he has not made up his mind whether he is a Democrat or a Populist, but will know in a few days Another man who is in a similarly embarrassing position is Judge W. E Richardson of the superior court bench. The judge is a pronounced and active socialist and Socialist worker. But he too was elected on the Democratic ticket. That was all very well when the Democrats were bidding for Socialist votes and were supported by the Socialists, but now the Socialists have decided to place a ticket of their own in the field in this county. This will not please the Democrats, whose chances of success this fall will be seriously lessened there. Where then will Judge Richardson get off two years hence when he desires to be re-elected to the superior court judge ship? He can not say he has not been a Socialist and that his work will not have assisted in Democratic defeat. This will make it very difficult, if not impossible, for him to secure a nomination from the Democrats. On the other hand if he accepts a nomination from the Socialists alone it is not likely he can be elected although personally popular. In Whitman county the political situation is becoming mixed. In the eighth senatorial district, which in a general way includes the southern portion of the county, which has been the Republican stronghold of the county in years past, and which was made still stronger Republican by the redistricting of the state by the last legislature, the Republicans are in danger of losing a part or all of their legislative nominees for both houses. In this district the fight between the Ankeny forces and the Preston forces in the convention was very bitter and the bitterness has not abated since the convention was very bitter and the bitterness has not abated since the convention when Ankeny won and his friends were nominated. The opponents of Ankeny swear they will of support men who will go to the legislature to vote for a man who is a pronounced enemy of the railroad legislation which they deem of so much importance. They declare it is absurd to expect the county which has been most persistent for railroad legislation to send men who will vote for a man for United States senator who publicly announces that he is not in favor of railroad legislation. On the other hand the Democrats in this district are united and are putting up a good fight. In the ninth senatorial district, which comprises the northern part of the county and which by the action of the last legislature was made still stronger Democratic, the Democrata are divided and the Republicans are united—just the reverse of the situation in the other district. The Republicans therefore believe they will carry the northern district. Therefore unless matters change between the present time and election day it is quite possible that the Republicans will BROTHER IN BLACK --- carry the Democratic district and the Democrats will carry the Republican district in Whitman county. "I cannot conceive of any Christian who would ask the great body of miners in the anthracite region to work for him at the mere pittance they are receiving. But, associated with others in the great combinations which have no soul, no conscience, no justice, he will tacitly or openly permit a strike to be made which shall in involve the interests of 150,000 men and their children."—Bishop Samuel J. Fallows. "Always pay attention to business. Be on the lookout for opportunities. Every man must make mistakes. There's no way of avoiding them, but the man who succeeds is the man who sees the blunder he has made and jumps in quickly and remedies it. I don't believe in hard and fast rules for success. You can't say to a young man, "This is the thing to do, or 'That is the thing to do.' I think young men of today have as much opportunity as they ever did."—Russell Sage on his eight-sixth birthday. "Judge Jackson is more lawless than the men against whom he directs his speeches. Judge Jackson usurps the power (not the right) to make laws and fix penalties, not according to the constitution, but according to his own warped and biased judgment. A lawless judge is a greater menace to free government than all the petty crimes which come before him in a lifetime. Impeachment proceedings have been suggested, and it is to be hoped that the matter will be brought before congress." —W. J. Bryan. The mausoleum containing the remains of the late Garrett A. Hobart, the first running mate of the late lamented William McKinley, is said to be the finest of its kind in the country. It is a Dorric temple free from ornamentation but built at a cost of $80,000. In the Uganda country of Africa, the king of which was banished some years ago by the government of England and sent to Seychelles Island in the Indian Ocean, the missionaries have succeeded in converting 90,000 of the inhabitants to the Christian religion. There are over 300 churches in the country, one of which will seat an audience of over 2,000 persons. Over 50,000 of the natives can read and most of the Bible has been translated into their language. The Negro educational conference which recently closed its meetings at Atlanta, Georgia, was of a very optimistic turn of mind. The general tone of the speeches and reports showed that all the delegates were strong in the belief that the race was on the road to better things and that their future, to a large extent, was in their own hands. The resolutions adopted at the conclusion of the session are significant. They began by recounting the progress that the race has made under difficult conditions. "In spite of the theorists and their theories, both before and after emancipation, we have shown ourselves able to live and thrive. A generation ago we came out of bondage without a foot of land, without a home, without a name. Even the clothes which covered our poorly clad bodies were not ours. Today we have some land, some homes, some money. Yesterday we had nothing; today we own millions of acres of land, pay taxes on property worth millions of dollars, and raise more cotton under freedom than under slavery." But following this impressive narration came a still more important statement, the kernel of the resolutions: "We earnestly recommend to our people throughout the country that they teach their children the dignity and value of manual labor," say the resolutions; "and that they give them the benefit of an industrial education, which will enable them to enter the world's industries with as much knowledge, skill, and dexterity as members of other races possess. That, for the purpose of securing competent men and women to lead the race in its struggle for greater knowledge, purer character, better religion, nobler manhood, and larger accumulation of wealth, we must encourage the higher education of as many of our boys and girls as are susceptible of higher training." . . . Newspaper comment on the conference is very kind and commendatory. The Boston Transcript says: "The advances which the Negro is making along moral and educational lines in his irresponsible rise to a status of worth and respect are each year more distinctly notable and satisfactory. The present congress is in itself concrete evidence of this encouraging fact. An idea of its interest and scope is gained from the subjects discussed, which range from the need of a properly trained ministry to the problems of mechanical work." "The spirit of the resolutions," says the Cleveland Leader, "could not well be improved upon. They prove clearly that the object of the conference was the mental spiritual, and material improvement of the race represented by the dele- JEWISH MILLIONAIRES "JEWISH."

The purpose of the conference, as stated in advance, was not to complain of conditions existing, but to as certain how the race might be improved and then suggest the remedy reedy. The Chicago Inter Ocean goes the convention one better in its tale of Negro growth. "The colored people have put their hands to the plow in the educational, business and industrial fields, and are spending little time in regrets or complains. Met by restrictive laws on suffrage, they have proceeded to remove the restrictions by special qualifications. Cheated in the management of crops on other people's land, they have bought land and managed their own crops. When they found themselves unfitted for work in the home, or the shop, or on the plantation, they have proceeded to train themselves to equality with others. Realizing their faults, they have striven to correct them. Recognizing wherein their racial line was weak, they have striven to strengthen it, and they ask of the stronger race only fair play." . . . Because of the fact that he was severely censured by the Southern Press because of an article written by him in the Atlantic Monthly on the Negro Problem, Andrew Sledd, professor of Latin in Emery College, tendered his resignation to Pres. Jas. E. Dickey. In the article Prof. Sledd stated that the Negro is not given his rights in the South and that the majority of them lynched is not for the crime of assault but for crimes of the most petty character. He also stated that the white people of the South have a natural born prejudice against the Negro and regard him as the most inferior being when compared with members of other races. For these truthful facts and plain utterances Prof. Sledd was branded as a South hater and such scurrilous articles appeared in Southern journals against him that he decided to resign.-Associated Press from Atlanta, Ga. . . .

LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS that there are in that city about 584, 788 Jews. In Manhatten every fourth person is a Jew. These figures are based upon the Jewish burials from time to time, which are as follows: The Jewish burials amounted in 1901 to 7,997, and as the death rate in the most congested Jewish district is little over fifteen per thousand, it implies a population of 533,133 in the middle of 1901. That time no less than 39,225 Jews have arrived at New York and stayed here, while by natural increase of births over deaths another 12,400 would be added up to August 1 of this year, making a grand total of 584,788. The number of Jewish marriages in Manhattan alone in 1901 was 5,062 which at a very high marriage rate of ten per thousand would imply a population of 506,200, to which has to be added the 70,000 Jews in Brooklyn and the increase by immigration and excess of births. The following, from the New York Age, edited by one of the ablest journalistic writers of this country and by odds the very ablest among the Negroes, touching the recent riot in New York, will doubtless be read by both Jews and Negroes with much interest: Two weeks ago Rabbi Joseph died and there was a big funeral on New York's East Side, for the Rabbi was a famous preacher in Israel. But there is a lot of prejudice against the Jewish race, as there is against the Afro-American race, and some miscreant can always be found to interrupt a Jewish ceremony, whether of a gay or solemn character. The streak of blackguardism in the American character, among the cultured and the illiterate, is a disreputable feature which cannot be ignored and which obtrudes itself in most unexpected ways and places, and often precipitates sharp clashes against law and order. When the funeral procession reached a certain point in its progress it was interrupted by some of the employees of a factory; this was resented by the mourners, and a general mix-up ensued, soon developing into a serious riot. When matters had reached the riot point the police appeared, and, charging into the crowd roughly, saw to it that the Jewish mourners were thoroughly shaken up. The New York police can always be depended upon to take the wrong course, to hit the wrong head, and to arrest the wrong man in a mix-up. The Jewish mourners were badly used by the police. What did the Jews do about it? Did they accept their clubbing as a matter of course? Not much. They put the machinery of the law in motion; they held big meetings and denounced and protested against the outrage; and they will get some sort of redress. They are rich; they are organized; they follow their leaders; they fight for their rights. The Afro-Americans have a great deal to learn from the Jewish people, who have a hard road to travel in this country and most of the countries of Europe; but they keep pegging away in all directions, keep on fighting for a square deal, and making and saving money with which to back up their contentions. We believe in fair play; we sympathize with all peoples who are unjustly dealt by, and we hope for the time when the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man will be recognized the world over, and the principles of justice and fair play everywhere prevails among men.

LYSONS, Acting Secretary. Next Monday will be Straw Day in Walla Walla. Labor Day falling on the same day there will doubtless be a good many straws in parade on that occasion. Russell Sage, the multo-millionaire, recently celebrated his eighty-sixth birthday and is said to still be hale and hearty. This is proof sufficient that only the good die young. Leonard Brown, the Tacoma car toonist, is certainly a master at his profession. His efforts in this direc- tion for the past week in the Tacoma "twins" have been unusually clever. Owing to the large crops that prevail in this country at present it is claimed that General Prosperity will continue to reign supreme in this country for the next four years. Let her go Gallagher, for Bryan is a dead one. What a pity that danger does not actually overtake the Sultan of Turkey instead of always threatening him. No man in the whole world is more deserving of not only danger, but disaster as well overtaking him as the Sultan of Turkey. An exchange thinks "Cushman is some punkins at Tacoma," and permit us to add that he is some pumpkins in every county in the state with the exception of Walla Walla county, from whence this bunglesome attempt to criticise him comes. "If Populism is deader than the grass," as thinks the Tacoma Ledger, what in the deuce does it continue to talk about it for. We know Populism is a dead one and we therefore leave it alone and absolutely refuse to continue to stir up its putrid carcass. Venezuela and Hayti seem to be vying with each other as to which one of them can have the greatest number of revolutions and overthrow the greatest number of local governments. Up to the present writing it seems to be nip and tuck between the two of them. Forestalling any attempt that the Democrats might attempt to make in charging the Republican party with giving succor to trusts, President Roosevelt is now swinging around the New England circle dealing body blows to trusts wherever he gets an opportunity to speak to the people. It is quite true that "nobody has yet claimed the reward for Pat Crowe," but it will be remembered that Pat Crowe claimed and not only claimed but got the reward for young Cudahy, and so some kind of a reward got in action even in the Pat Crowe flasco. Some Indiana promotors have bought 50,000 acres of land in the state of Alabama and will settle Northerners thereon as a business proposition and incidentally to try to settle the race problem in that state. Here's another soul gone wrong. President Roosevelt is said to be indifferent from a campaign standpoint whether Aguinaldo does or does not visit the United States for election purposes. Why not? for we do not believe that Aguinaldo could influence a single vote one way or the other in any section of this country. Judging from Sheriff Gardner's attitude since the capturing of Harry Tracy it was the reward that he (Gardner) was after a good deal more than the desperado and it begins to look as though he would have permitted Tracy to escape if he had been certain that there would be no reward for him if he captured him. The sham naval contest between Admiral Pillarsbury on the part of the white squadron, the defending naval forces and Rear Admiral Higginson of the attacking forces resulted in the complete surprise of Admiral Higginson and his unconditional surrender without a gun having been fired. If that is not proving the prowess of our naval heroes then what do you call it. "Tacoma "is getting there on both feet, in the location of new industries," so says the Tacoma News. As none of those industries have been seen or heard of it is probable that Tacoma's feet are so large that they are covering them all up. St. John Dix, the Whatcom bank wrecker, has been sentenced to a term of ten years in the penitentiary for his peculations. If St. John will only leave his case to his attorneys and keep his mouth shut he won't serve a single day for his peculations. Hon. M. B. Maloy, the well-known Douglas county politician and leader, claims that Douglas county has gained a voting population of over 2,000 in the past two years. This vote he thinks will be evenly divided among the Democrats and Republicans, which, if true, will still continue Douglass county Republican in politics. If the Tacoma papers can be believed Senator Turner got touched while he was in the City of Destiny a few days ago. During Mr. Turner's career in this state he has been frequently touched and sometimes for a good deal more than for a cheap watch for which he was touched while in Tacoma. In the language of the under world the senator is "dead easy." According to the Weekly Statesman of Walla Walla both Ankney and Foster are fighting the renomination of Francis W. Cushman. As to Mr. Ankney's attitude the actions of his convention in Walla Walla showed very plainly where he stands as to Cushman, but just why Mr. Foster should want to fight Cushman no one but Mr. Foster can explain, unless he fears Cushman will get in his road in the near future. We hope it is true that a Seattle man has invented a machine that will do away with Chinamen in canneries but if the Seattleites had just applied to some of the Southern states he need not have gone to the trouble of studying out an invention to do away with objectionable people, but taken up the modus procedure of the Southern states by only killing them. --- Not yet tired of public life, Gen. Alger aspires to be United States senator from Wisconsin. Alger may have been wrongfully abused as secretary of war, but we do not believe that the politicians of Wisconsin have a sufficient amount of sympathy for him to elect him to the United States senate in order for him to get even and open up old sores. A prominent Kentuckian is out advocating that every child, male and female be taught the use of fire arms in all of the public schools We were of the opinion that such a state of af- fairs did actually exist in Kentucky without compulsion. However, we take issue with the Kentuckian as to those states in civilized communities pursuing a similar course. Instead of oil destroying the coal output on the Pacific Coast, it has simply relieved the situation. That is to say, before oil was discovered it was impossible for the mines to supply the demand, but now the demand is being supplied and the coal output has not been decreased a single particle, yea, perhaps, it has slightly increased over what it was a year ago. But fourteen per cent of the male population of Chicago and seventeen per cent of the females attend any kind of church service and that out of a population of 562,153 males and 727,662 females. In other words, 80,844 males and 123,723 females attend religious worships. Now what better evidence do you want than this that Chicago is the center of hell's half acre. --- First and last, it is going to be impossible to get anyone of any educational importance and experience to accept the presidency of the state university, located in Seattle, and all because foggyism cuts such a wide swarth among many of the regents. It is claimed that President Graves was dismissed for no other reason than because he did not do as much work as some of the regents thought he ought to do. --- If you are not just certain as to where you will get sufficient money to pull you through the winter, we suggest, that you grab a bop box for the next month or six weeks and if you happen to have a wife and a number of children just take them along with you and if you do the chances are that you will return in October a few hundred dollars better off from your outing and experience. When you go to a hop field you will take an outing that pays in more ways than one. --- The fun being all over the Carnival closing tomorrow night, now it is your duty as a true Seattleite to assist the city in taking advantage of the vast amount of good wholesome advertising that has resulted from the carnival and street fair, for it has been widely and extensively patronized; the street parades which have taken place each day have been very commendable and would have done credit to any city in the far East. Now do your duty and help to push Seattle along. Reports say that at the coronation of King Edward he stepped into a restoring room, which had been thoughtfully provided by the physicians for the occasion, and after throwing off his crown and his heavy cloth-of-gold cape from his shoulders prostrated himself on a couch, exclaiming: "I am nearly dead. For heaven's sake give me some whiskey and water." the former liquid seems to have been, the King's besetting sin ever since he became a man and it appears that it is to follow him throughout the kingly days. --- The visit of a French nobleman to the almshouse near Philadelphia a few days ago disclosed the fact that the woman who recently died there without friends or acquaintances and who was known as Taglioni, was none other than the famous Beranger, the noted female dancer and tight-rope walker, who performed in the early part of the 19th century. Mille Beranger was born in Rouen in 1824, but came to America when she was only twenty years of age. She married Col. Andrew Parker of Savannah and during the great Civil War took an active part on the Southern side of the great dispute. She lost both her husband and children during the great struggle, but she subsequently married M. Viz, a French nobleman. Fortune was against her, and in 1898, deformed and crippled, she asked admittance to the almshouse, where she died without breathing a word as to her identity.

A protective tariff is constructive; it bullds up the country. Free trade is destructive; it impoverlshes the country. The Irish Catholic newspaper, the ‘Pilot, says: “Archbishop Ireland is "as good an American as he is a Cath ‘olic; and America is the happy home of millions of Catholics; but all the same, there is no need of overprais ing a good thing, as he does when he says: ‘Let justice be done to Amer- ‘ica; in no other country is there a [government so fair-minded, 50 im | partial, so willing to treat all classes “of citizens with absolute justice as that with which we aro blessed in America.’ The archbishop of St. Paul need not travel more than half a “day's journey from his home to find a country where it would not be im possible for a Catholic to be the head |of the government; where a Catholic lis actually at the head of the gov- ernment today; where Catholic cab- inet officers of high rank, governors, chief justices, military and civil dignt taries of all kinds are as common as in Arehbishop Ireland’s country they are uncommon and almost impossible where justice in the matter of relig ion in education is a thing of course, as it is not in the United States.

Wire- less te‘egraphy will be used in the great many instances where it would be almost impossible to maintain a cable. Dr. E. Benjamin Andrews has brought considerable criticism upon himself by announcing not long since that “unmarried individuals had no place in society or in the scheme of the universe.” A number of writ- ers have already taken the doctor to task for the bold assertions, neverthe- less the theory finds favor among a great many persons. Northwestern Ohio and southwest- em Michigan, especially in Putnam and Henry counties, are having an overfiow of vicious rattlesnakes. Never in the history of the country have the farmers been so troubled with the rattlers as at present and a number of persons’ have already been bitten, one proving fatal. A war of extermination has been inaugurated by the farmers in order to free the! country from the dangerous pests. F. W. Neeley, the man who was con- vieted of having diverted $150,000 from the Cuban post office depart- ment, who was subsequently sent to prison for a number of years, but more suiisequently pardoned under the general amnesty law, ‘s, after all, one ‘of Cuba’s most prosperous busine. men. During all the time of his con- finement his business went steadily on and while it was not highly profit able it nevertheless made expenses and now he is doing the largest brick business on the island. During the time Uncle Sam's offi cers occupied Cuba, from 1898 to 1902, the time of their retiring from the is- land, the American officers, military and civil, acting under the direction of the war department, collected $57, 200,000 in Cuban revenues and ex pended $53,370,000. Now all of this money and even $1,500,000 more per month supplied by the United States was expended for the benefit of the Cubans in the way of putting the cities in sanitary conditions and fur- nishing the country folk with a start er to begin life afresh after the ray- ages of twenty years of continuous war. A railway conductor accidentally discovered gold under the streets of Cripple Creek and many shafts are being sunk in the heart of the city with the hope of striking rich gold de posits that are supposed to underlie it. One of the biggest guns ever made is to soon be installed at Sandy Hook, N. Y. It will throw a projectile five feet four inches long and weighing 2870 pounds. It will require 576 pounds of smokeless powder or 1176 pounds of the old fashioned black powder to propel it. The projectile sent out from this gun could penetrate 42.34 inches of steel at the muzzle and nothing thus far known in the line of defensive armor could resist it. George C. Pardee has been nomin- ated for governor of California over Governor Gage by the Republican party. It required six ballots to de cide the contest. On his eastern trip Mr. Bryan is telling a good story on himself. It is to the effect that he was recently shaved in a western town by a colored barber and gave the artist a dollar for the job. He thought he had been liberal, and was surprised to learn on his next visit to the piace that the barber was in trouble with the union for cutting the price for such a shave.

G. McBride are still outside of the "warming oven." Well informed politicians say Jim Ham will not be a candidate for Congress this coming election. The "quid nunes" say that he has been ham strung, preventing him from running. Two women doctoring a sick cat was one of the heard-rending scenes that greeted the eye of the Tattler on Howell street last Thursday morning. Men must be scarce in that section of the city. the mother. A little later the child again asked, "What town is this?" The reply of course was "Seattle." Then the little one replied, "Why, mamma, is it Seattle yet?" Many a good Christian conscientious man was forced to go to the circus the first of the week against his wishes and contrary to the dictates of his conscience as well as his religious teachings in order that the children might see the animals. Yes of course they sinned, but they did so for a good cause, at least that's their way of explaining their actions. As a fair minded business man you must admit that the Elks' carnival The recent commercial congress did not pass a resolution favoring arbitration, but some uninformed member introduced a resolution to that effect. Arbitration is just what the Canadians want, for there is onthing to arbitrate. From Seattle to Green Lake the street car fare is five cents, with a ticket only four cents. To the fair grounds, no further, the rate is 2 cents for a round trip. This may be honest, but is it decent? What says the Times? It is street gossip that Charles Gifford of Gifford & Grant is working on an important invention, which is no less than an air brake for a common bicycle. If he is successful he will have a fortune in his fist if in the meantime some one does not get a corner on the air. Hon. Tully Scott, formerly a very prominent Democratic politician in Kansas but now of Cripple Creek, Colorado, was in the city the first of the week looking over the Queen City of the Northwest. Judge Bogue and Hon. A. G. McBride, both well known in Seattle, are among his former acquaintances. Not long ago the city made war on the doors to private boxes in saloons and "ladies' entrance" signs, and at the end of the contest both were retired, but the city, at a sacrifice of consistency, still retains in large bolt letters a "ladies' entrance" sign over the door of its free employment bureau. President Baker of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Co. has expressed a desire to the board of public works to paint the poles of his company in the city an "Indian red," and it is hoped that the request will be granted. In Indian red is not chosen as the prevailing color by the board then Mr. Baker should be permitted to use red paint if he so desires. When the Board of Equalization cut the assessment of the Seattle Electric Company in two and thereby lost King county more than half a million dollars in the way of taxes, the allegations to the effect that the members of the board of equalization are simply hired men of the Seattle Electric Company seems to have been doubly substantiated. Griffith, the deputy in the prosecuting attorney's office, it is reported will be retained no matter who is elected for the purpose of handling the great constitutional law questions which come before that office. It was on Griffith's advice that the Times made a fight against Tom Considine being permitted to give ball at the time of his preliminary. Judge George, in a case before him this week, decided that a woman, who was locked out of her rooms by her landlord, was not guilty of any crime in taking an axe and pounding her way into her castle. Outside of any question of law, the decision is based on good sound sense. Judge George is giving most excellent satisfaction and all because he does what he considers right. It is reported that I. E. Moses is fighting the political aspirations on Hon. John E. Humphries with whom he (Moses) officed for a number of years without cost or charge. Some one acquainted with the facts rises to remark that Moses is doing so because Mr. Humphries gave him shelter, food and raiment when he (Moses) was not able to give it to himself. It such be true it was Humphries instead of Moses after all that lifted up the serpent in the wilderness. Rev. J. Gordon McPherson has completed arrangements for the holding of a celebration in honor of the immortal Lincoln's "emancipation" proclamation issued September 2, 1862, liberating over four million slaves, and the same will be pulled off on that date. As will be seen in another column, the celebration will be held in the Auditorium and unless his plans miscarry it will be the biggest and best affair of its kind ever carried out in this city under the auspices of the Afro-Americans. A little girl and her mother were riding on a street car going toward the lake last Saturday when on the first hill the little one inquired what town this was. "Why, this is Seattle" said Many a good Christian conscientious man was forced to go to the circus the first of the week against his wishes and contrary to the dictates of his conscience as well as his religious teachings in order that the children might see the animals. Yes of course they sinned, but they did so for a good cause, at least that's their way of explaining their actions. As a fair minded business man you must admit that the Elks' carnival, which closes its doors tomorrow, has proven a big hit for Seattle from an advertising standpoint. It was also a financial success and the local Elks will find themselves the proud possessors of a handsome bank account after their bills have all been paid as a result of the two weeks' festivities. Much of the credit for the success of this carnival is due to General Manager Frank H. Paul, who is one of the most genial gentlemen that the Northwest boasts of, and that's saying a good deal. She was a nice, bright, good-looking girl and took passage on a Kinnear park car in North Seattle for down town. There was one vacant seat and that was in the corner on the inside it seems that the company keeps a heater under each corner seat. The day was a warm one, but imagine the "poor thing" as she sat there over the heater with the perspiration coursing down her pretty cheeks and growing redder every turn of the wheels. She got up and gently laid her hand on the seat, then on the back and as she sat down waived the conductor to let her off, which he did at the next crossing and the balance of her journey she made on foot, and wondered as the car glided out of sight around the curve why flames did not actually consume it. Here's a good story on A. G. McBride, the well known attorney. While in Nome McBride grew restless after receiving the papers from Seattle telling of the big times in the Friken Humes gubernatorial scrap. "Oh, I must get back to Seattle at once," he said to a friend. "I can do well in that fight and I am going to Seattle at once." "But if you go back, which one of the factions will you join?" interjected the friend. That had never occurred to the restless politician and without giving the question a second thought or consideration he impetuously snapped out: "How the h—I can I tell until I get there." The answer is allright if you look at it right, but is rather amusing as well as suggestive if you happen to look at it on the wrong side. With much misgiving and added humility it is suggested that a law be enacted creating and increasing taxes on the finished product of the trusts. To illustrate: There are a number of typewriter manufacturers, who have established an unreasonably high selling rate by comission, trust or other secret understandings. Let the legislature authorize the assessor to assess those selling the machines at combination rates at say ten dollars for each and every machine sold and thereby give the tax-paying public some benefit out of the ill-gotten trust combination trading concerns. Or course it would take some time to perfect such a law, but why not commence now and why not the Republican party take the lead? Before passing judgment on the question of self-government for Alaska, it might be well to ascertain what the people of the district think about the matter. The writer is led to believe that the married men and concerns of Alaska are opposed to territorial government, but do ask for fair, just and equitable legislation. Among the latter is a reduction of the high and in some cases prohibitive license and a more favorable division of the license money collected from the people. One of the objections to self-government is that Alaskans would be compelled to bear the expense of governing themselves, and this they are unable to do. The greater portion of Alaska's population is not permanent. Not more than one in a hundred go there to remain a lifetime and add the expense of self-government to the already high rate of living and taxation and you will drive half of the people that are there out of the district. A Portland paper says: "There is a good wife for every man." Of course the sentence as it stands is capable of expansion, contraction, misconstruction as well as misleading. We admit that every man is entitled to a good wife, but we cannot say that every man gets what he is entitled to even confining our fears to those that get a wife at all. The same rule may hold good with the woman as to the getting of husbands. Elks. Attention. For the Portland Carnival, the Northern Pacific will run special train on Sept. 3rd. Fare only $4.00. Those attending the Puget Sound conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church held in Portland, have returned and report a very good conference.

J. Collins, Tacoma; Rev. N. D. Hartsfield, New Castle and Franklin; Rev. S. S. Freeman, Roslyn; Rev. G. A. Bailley, Everett; Rev. W. T. Biggers Portland.

Bishop Shaffer left Portland on Monday morning and held services in the A. M. E. church of this city last Monday evening, trying in some way to get matters straight here as no report was sent in to the conference The Bishop left for Montana the following Tuesday after installing Rev Freeman as pastor in charge of the church. Rev. Freeman is already here and will hold services Sunday. Mrs. Freeman and little girls are also here and they will soon take up their residences in the parsonage.

Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Edson and little daughter, all of Tacoma, have been the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Washington during the past week. Mr. George W. Johnson of Franklin attended the carnival last Monday and Tuesday and reports works working smoothly in Franklin since Constable Morris resigned and went to work. T. C. Collins, who is now a postoffice employee, is getting on exceedingly well and thinks he is fixed for a good many years. Anderson's torsional parlors are smiling over their new dress in the shape of the latest and most up-to-date chairs, and other fixtures, which the proprietor has just put in. Mr. Lawrence Sledge of Tacoma has been a guest in this city during the week taking in the carnival and incidentally trying to assist Mr. Black in entertaining the ladies from Spokane. Mrs. J. B. Parker and her daughter, Miss Candace, of Spokane, were among the carnival visitors during the past week. While here they were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Tutt and Mr. Andrew R. Black.
