The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN THREE TRAINS DAILY THE NEXT SOUND NATIONAL BANK JOHN L. WILSON SPOKANE COUNTY SENATORIAL RESOLUTION. "We request and instruct the Republican senators and representatives from Spokane county nominated by this convention to prior conventions, to give their unwavering and loyal support to the candidacy of the Hon. John L. Wilson for the United States senate. To this proposition we invite the cordial co-operation of the commercial, industrial and agricultural interests of Spokane county, calling their attention to the fact that if Spokane county and the territory contiguous thereto is to have a representative in the United States senate that man must be a Republican. "Spokane county, in wealth, population and the variety of its interests is today the most important center in Eastern Washington. Its interests are DELEGATES STATE CONVENTION Adams.

IX, NO. 14 Chehalis. for all practical purposes, the same as those of Western Washington, and we ask the Republican senators and representatives elected from Eastern Washington a most respectful and deliberate consideration of the candidate named by this convention. During Mr. Wilson's four years' term in the United States senate, by diligent effort and unflagging industry, he obtained and placed upon the statute book much legislation beneficial to this state, and at all times, both in public and private life, he has been true to the principles of the Republican party, and has valiantly fought its battles. We therefore heartily indorse his candidacy, and instruct the members of the legislature from Spokane county to support the same until they shall unanimously agree that another course may be preferable.

Foster and Congressmen W. L. Jones and F. W. Cushman. "The delegates selected by this convention to attend the state convention at Tacoma are hereby instructed to vote as a unit for the renomination of Congressmen Jones and Cushman, and to use all honorable means to secure their renomination." Photo by Plummer. John E. Humphries, who has announced his can lidy for the nomination of supreme judge, does not aspire to succeed Judge Hadley on the bench, but, on the other hand, he does aspire to succeed Judge Reavis, whose regular term expires next January. Judge Hadley was appointed by the late Governor Rogers to serve out a fixed time created by the legislature and he has done so and has retired and no one can succeed him, for he was filling no place that will ever again exist. Because Judge Hadley was appointed by Governor Rogers to serve out a time on the supreme bench created by the legislature it did not necessarily give him any priority rights for the nomination to succeed Judge Reavis; therefore Mr. Humphries will be taking no undue political advantage of Judge Hadley in endeavoring to secure the nomination in order to succeed Judge Reavis at the expiration of his term of office. Judges Hadley and White held with the minority of the supreme court in a decision which terminated their tenure of office and now he has no more specific claims for the nomination to succeed Judge Reavis than any other private citizen or practicing attorney, and it is very doubtful if as much as some King county citizen, from which county at least one-fifth of all the legal business of the state comes, for such nomination Mr. Humphries on a previous occasion in these columns very plainly stated his position as to King county getting a congressional nomination and subsequently a senatorial election, which was to the effect that if his nomination would in any wise obstruct the election of Harold Preston to the United States senate or the nomination of Will E. Humphrey to the lower house of congress, then he was no longer a candidate, for he realizes that King county is sorely in need of representation in congress and he wants to see her get it, and get it now. Yea, so anxious is he to see King county get such representation that he is perfectly willing to sacrifice his own candidacy if by so doing it would bring about such results. his nomination, however, he does not believe, will interfere with that of Mr. Humphrey or Mr. Preston, and King county being without representation on the bench at the present time, and King county furnishing, as has already been said, one-fifth of all the legal business done in the state, should have representation on the supreme bench the same as in congress, and there being no other candidate from King county aspiring for the judicial nomination he feels that he can consistently push his claims before the coming state convention, and to that end will shape his efforts between this and next Wednesday. A majority, if not all, of the delegates from King county to the state convention favor his nomination, and he believes that he already has sufficient strength outside of King county to warrant him in positively saying he will be nominated next Wednesday for supreme judge by the Republican state convention.

PRICE FIVE CENTS An earnest appeal is made to you and each of you to at least subscribe for the only paper in the Northwest that is published in the direct interest of the Negro race in this section. Whatever else may be said against the Seattle Republican, it is undisputably Republican in and out of season. Whether the party nominee be favorable, friendly or hostile to either the paper or its editor, it never fails to support him just the same. The Republican may be a Wilson, an Ankney or a McBride-Preston organ before the convention; but after the convention it is a party organ. It always leaves its differences and sore spots on the convention floor, and for that reason it appeals to you as a Republican to show at least a subscription price appreciation for a paper that is always with you and yet get no party emoluments one way or the other.

King county's legal machinery has begun to grind again and the "under world" knows that there is something doing on the hill. Yes, the Elks' carnival was a huge financial success for the order of the B. P. O. E., but, oh me, oh my! didn't the business houses get terribly muticed. William Jennings Bryan may not be a political winner, but there is no denying the fact that he is a most successful political croaker and knocker so far as the Democratic party is concerned. You are casting bread upon the waters in subscribing for The Seattle Republican that may return even to you after many days in copious quantities, and then when you subscribe for manner you always get value so paper you always get value received. "Kissing is dangerous," which perhaps is quite true if it's the other fellow's wife and he happens to see you, but if the "kissie" happens to be a pretty girl it is a danger that most any man, whether young or old, will forego once for luck. Next Wednesday the Republican state convention will be called in Tacoma, and while there are only four nominations to be made, yet the prospects are fair of their being a "hot time in the old town" before that quartet will be given the freedom of the stump. South Carolina's Democratic thieves, thugs and murderers have been doing their kind of politics in that state for the past week or more and thereby further demonstrating the incapability of the Negro of that state being such a citizen as will lead to fame and fortune of the Tilmanic stripe. It strikes us that the Davenport Tribune is different from most Democrats, in that it favors expansion. A leader in its last issue was headed Vol. 111, No. 1, indicating the age of the paper. Perhaps the Tribune is that old, but there are those who read it that doubt the truthfulness of the statement. --- "Pemphigus valgarus" is the name of a new disease that has put in its appearance in the state of New Jersey and is causing some alarm. We surmise perhaps it is a legitimate offspring of the "trusts disease," which has been so prevalent in that state for the past decade and responsible for so much public annoyance. With Anglo-Saxons all over the country doing everything within their power to prevent the Negro from accomplishing anything in the way of higher citizenship and racial improvements, well might England refer to the prevailing conditions of the Negro in this country as a most brilliant example of his incapacity the world over to maintain self-government. We are almost willing to admit that the Filipinos are incapable of self-gov- --- ernment, as late news from there confirm a former report to the effect that the natives have taken kindly to labor unionism and are already participating in a number of strikes. If such be true, "it is all off with the Swede," and self-government must be denied those "heathen igiots." John W. Gates and his crowd of bloodsuckers seem to be of the opinion that it is only a question of time when success will come their way. It will come just as soon as a judge can be found who will make up his judicial opinions according to "what there is in it" for him, and there is no doubt but that such a judge can be found if only sufficient time is allowed to find him. This is a sample of The Seattle Republican: When you have read it you are personally solicited to become a subscriber thereto. It is the only paper in the state that represents 3,000 Negro voters, which voters are seldom, if ever, given any political recognition, though they always vote the Republican ticket. Subscribe for their organ and show some appreciation to them for their party faithfulness. As we go to press the political ragtags, pug-uglies and bob-tails of King county, more commonly known as the Democratic party, are holding their convention. The delegates to this convention will doubtless exhaust their energies in trying to induce enough persons to accept nominations to complete a regular ticket for the November election rather than the crystalization of some theory for the benefit of the people in general. All Europe is wincing under President Roosevelt's "Monroe doctrine" speech, recently delivered in New England, some of the continental governments going so far as to forecast it as a war threat, in which America and European countries will sooner or later be involved. Europe always has fits, spasms and convulsions whenever the Monroe doctrine is mentioned, because it has for its object, the prevention of European countries from interfering with America, which policy Uncle Sam has successfully maintained since the doctrine was first promulgated. If it be true that the "press" molds public opinion, then the Cuban press will sufficiently mold the public's opinion of that country to force President Palma to resign its presidency. President Palma has a ways been consideded an interloper in Cuban politics and a prctege of the United States rather than a true Cuban, and if the United States had not backed him in his candidacy for the position he now holds he would never have been elected, and it seems that the United States government backed him for no other purpose than to give him an opportunity to try to sufficiently crystallize public sentiment on the island into the favoring of the annexation of Cuba to the United States and also to prevent the "black element" from capturing the government. If, there'ore, the Cubans wish to maintain their independence they had better dispense with the further services of President Palma. SPOKANE PERSONALS. The pulpit of the Calvary Baptist church was filled Sunday evening by Rev. Hugh L. King, a white evangelist, who is on his way to Tennessee to do evangelistic work. The choir had an additional singer in the person of Mrs. Sadle Smith, of Butte, Mont., and their work was creditable. Miss Minnie Brown has returned from a three weeks' visit to Keslo, B. C. While there she was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Perkins, who, with the family of Mr. J. A. Sith, are the only colored residents of the little city, but they lack not for pleasure, for the Englishman is the black man's friend. Mr. A. W. Perkins has lived in Keslo nearly six years, and he holds a position as bartender in Keslo's leading hotel and receives an excellent salary. The white citizens of Keslo are excellent people as a whole, many musicians and scholars being found amongst them. It was Miss Brown's luck to have lived in this community a number of years ago and her return to it was a pleasure, and she was made thoroughly welcome there. Messrs. John T. Pierre and S. D. Pierre are men of color, their home being in Victoria, B. C. These gentlemen have the leading tailoring establishment in Nelson, B. C. Their goods are imported direct from England by them. Their work is something fine and their trade is excellent. They are kept busy continually, sometimes having to hire a number of assistants. This shows what a colored man can do when he is given half a chance, and then when the chance is given and he attends to business as these gentlemen do, he thereby wins the confidence and respect of his white customers and retains it. The tailoring establishment of the Pierre Bros. is well known throughout British Columbia. Your regular correspondent is under obligations to Miss Knight for furnishing a weekly letter to The Republican during her absence, which letters were highly satisfactory. MINNIE BROWN.

The Republican state convention for Washington is hereby called to meet at the city of Tacoma on Wednesday, September 10, 1902, at the hour of 10 o'clock a.m., for the purpose of placing in nomination three candidates for Congress and one candidate for the State Supreme Court, and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before said convention. The basis of representation will be two delegates at large for each county and for each of the votes or fraction of 50 or more cast in county for J. M. Frank, Republican candidate for governor at the general election of 1900, the apportionment for each county being as follows: County— Frink vote. Dele gates.

It is recommended that the basis of apportionment for delegates to Joint Senatorial Districts be the same as that for the State Convention. The State Central Committee recommends that all voters who are willing to support the Republican Congressional nominees at the November election be invited to participate in the primaries. J. H. SCHIVELY, Chairman. Congressman Cushman has named his steering committee as follows: H. S. Huson, W. H. Paulhanus, William Jones, W. P. Reynolds and George B. Kandle. All of these gentlemen are well and favorably known in state politics and are staunch supporters of Mr. Cushman and will not leave a stone unturned to bring about his nomination next Wednesday when the Republican state convention will be in session. No member of the present congress has made a greater and better record, nor a more lasting reputation than Francis W. Cushman, and the Republicans in the state of Washington should feel that they were doing themselves proud in renominating him for the position which he has so admirably filled for the past three years. . . . The long-talked-of state convention w.. be called to order next Wednesday by Chairman Schively, which convention will, to some extent, settle the political destinies of Henry G. McBride, who aspires to be the Republican dictator of this state. The governor claims, and perhaps his claims are well founded, that he has won his fight so far as the coming convention endorsing his anti-railroad bill is concerned. The Pie-maker is inclined to believe that such is really true, but the governor has won his fight under such conditions as will prove of no material benefit to him when the next legislature has assembled and gets down to business. A good story on Governor McBride and his way of winning a fight comes down from Skagit county, the home of the governor. It seems that John L. Wilson put up a hot fight in Skagit county and was making it so interesting for the governor and the Harold Preston candidacy that it looked for a time as though the governor had won a majority of the county delegates to the state convention, yet he would lose his own county. Something had to be done, and so the governor went to the Ankeny contingency of the county and made a proposition with them, so goes the story, that if they would aid him in defeating Wilson and have the county convention instruct the delegates to the state convention to vote for the anti-railroad pank he (McBride) would agree that the members of the legislature nominated in the county would be Ankeny men and thereby shut Wilson out from any support from that county. The deal was consummated and the governor won out and he kept his promise in having only Ankeny men nominated for members of the legislature. Now, here's inconsistency in lump lots. The state convention can do nothing but recommend legislation, but the members of the legislature can pass legislation, likewise elect a United States senator, and the governor gets delegates to the state convention to recommend legislation and yet gives all the members of the legislature up to Mr. Ankeny and his followers, which members will vote diametrically opposite to the measures which the McBride delegates --- TALES OF THE TOWN to the state convention will recommend, and also vote for a senator different from the one he has been advocating. As a result of such a move Governor McBride himself will be instrumental in defeating the passage of an anti-railroad bill by the next legislature, and when that will have been done he will then announce himself as the great champion of the common people and against railroad measures, when in fact he has done just the opposite to what he claims to favor. Senator George Turner is said to be very friendly to Governor McBride's railroad policy and will lend him whatever aid and assistance he can toward its passage before the next legislature. Rumor has it that if the commission bill is passed Governor McBride will permit Senator Turner to name one of the railroad commissioners. In 1895 Henry G. McBride, of Skagit county, was a staunch admirer of George Turner and did all he could to deadlock the legislature rather than see anyone else elected to the United States senate except George Turner. Not long since the Pie-maker predicted in these columns that Governor McBride, if he failed to accomplish his political purposes before the next legislature, would bolt the Republican party in 1904 and join issues with George Turner for the defeat of the party at the polls. Now, put all of the herein published circumstances together and if the charges made by the Pie-maker are not to some extent plausible, then "excuse us." There is no doubt just now but that an understanding exists between Senator Turner and Governor McBride and there is no doubt but that the governor will attempt to de' eat the Republican party in 1904 if its actions do not meet his approval between this and that time. The following article from the Walla It is perhaps true that the average policeman in Seattle is never to be found when he is needed most, but recently Officer Carr, whose beat is on Second avenue, was on hand at the proper time and his presence saved a probable fatal calamity, which certainly would have happened if he had not rushed out and caught a runaway team that was dashing down Second avenue, which was crowded with people, teams and street cars, it being the noon hour. The officer succeeded in bringing the team to a halt, and then, jumping into the wagon, drove up the street in search of the owner, who soon put in an appearance, in the person of J. J. Phillips, a wood and coal dealer on Seventh avenue. Mr. Phillips was very effusive in his thanks to the officer, but his smiles were soon turned to frowns, when the officer paced him under arrest and sent him to headquarters to answer a charge of leaving his team on the street unhitched, which resulted in his being fined $10 the next day by Judge George on a charge of carelessly leaving his team not properly fastened to prevent them from taking fright and running away, as it did. Someone has written that "it never rains but what it pours", and that seems to be true in the case of Mr. Phillips, who was fined $10 for leaving his team unhitched on the streets. Only a few months ago Mr. Phillips wanted to get rid of his partner, who was in business with him, and he seems to have concluded that the quickest way to get rid of him was to beat him to death, and so he immediately struck out on that theory. His victim, however, got away from him before he was quite killed and at once swore to a complaint charging him with assault and battery. He was found guilty by the justice, but being from Missouri, where "you have to show 'em'," he appealed his case to the superior court and there lost again, which cost him in the neighborhood of $200. The next trouble that Phillips encountered was that his partner feared to continue business with him, and so asked for the appointment of a receiver to wind up the business, which the court granted. The business was soon advertiser for sale and was sold, but Phillips was doomed to pay out more money, as his former partner sprung another surprise on him by bringing in a bill of $400 for his wife's services attending to the telephone for the company. This Phillips fought to a finish in the courts but lost again and had to pay the $400. Since that time he has become an avowed supporter of Socialism, such as Doc Titus advocates, but he does not deny the fact that it has been coming his way this year. Here's a good one on John F. Cragwell, the well known Seattle Hotel barber. "Crag," as he is commonly known, takes his meals at a certain restaurant on Second avenue, and, according to the story, he has been telling the waitresses and the handsome little proprietress of the place that he was a Cuban. Of course not that kind of a Cuban in whose veins flows black blood, but the pure stuff. Re Walla Argus, the leading and most influential Democratic paper in Eastern Washington, will prove quite interesting to the average Republican who has been watching the movements of Governor McBride and his railroad commission bill for the past few months: "Senator Turner and Governor McBride must be very good friends, from the fact that the senator wishes to give the governor the power to appoint the members of a railroad commission." It is very generally conceded now that an understanding exists between the governor and the senator on railroad matters, and that if the next legislature fails to meet their approval in affairs on railroad legislation they will be together politically two years from now. It is reported on very good authority that Governor McBride intends to defeat Judge Hadley for the nomination of supreme judge because of the fact that Whatcom county failed to send to the state convention a McBride delegation. It is also reported on very good authority that Fish Commissioner Kershaw will be forced to resign his position because he was not likewise able to control the delegation from his county in the interests of Governor McBride. Whatever else may be said of such, there is no denying the fact that it is petite politics of the peanut order, for no one or two men can direct the destinies of any county in this state, and if there is such a county it. this state that is absolutely under the control of any one or two men, then such county is in a most pitiable political condition. In another column of this issue will be found an almost correct list of the delegates to the state convention from the various counties. An effort was made on the part of the management of The Republican to get an absolutely correct list, but some of the counties could not be reached in time to get their list of delegates. However, it will be found that only a few of the late counties to hold conventions are absent. cently he took a colored friend in to dinner with him and the next day he explained to the fair ones that he was not color prejudice a bit, as he, and his father owned lots of colored slaves in Cuba and that he was very fond of them and that was why he brought the colored friend to dinner with him. One of the waitresses, however, happened to be acquainted with a prominent colored man in town who frequently goes to this self-same restaurant for his noonday meal. She told him how fond the Cuban barber in the Hotel Seattle was of colored folk and that he frequently brought them there to dinner with him. The prominent colored man sat and heard it until he got so full that if he hadn't spoken he would certainly have busted, and when he did speak, "it was all off with the Swede." Yes, he is a Cuban in a horn. He is only a nigger from Virginia just like me and his friend." It is enough to make a horse laugh to hear a Seattle policeman talking about having men arrested for perjuring themselves on the witness stand. Perhaps some citizens do go into court and commit perjury by testifying falsely, but for one to sit in the police court and hear the officers testify in the various cases that come up for hearing, if he does not leave believing that Seattle policemen are the biggest liars and perjurers that ever lived, then the Tattler misses his guess. Recently, according to the daily papers, Mayor Humes' son was mired in Kansas, and on his return to Seattle with his bride the mayor presented him with a fine house and lot. That the mayor was able to do this caused quite a bit of comment by those who have known him for the past fifteen years or more. If the Tattler makes no mistake, it was only a few years ago that the mayor lost all his property under a mortgage foreclosure and since that time he has only held office five years, three of which at a salary of $1,500 a year and two at $3,000 a year. Now, how the mayor could live and maintain a big family, pay for a fine home for himself and then be able to give his son a fine house and lot out of that is a question that would puzzle a Philadelphia financier to figure out; but such is true, and of course it is best not to try to explain such things lest one gets his faith in honesty badly shaken. The prosperity of Mayor Humes, of Seattle, reminds the Tattler of some of the wonderful financial feats that have been accomplished by some of New York's policemen, which may explain, if one cares to figure it out, the mayor's wonderful financial success. Inspector William McLaughlin, a member of New York's police force, who a decade ago was worth only his salary, now pays taxes on property valued at $300,000. He makes no explanation as to how he got it. Inspector Anthony J. Alaire is said to be a millionaire, and he, too, but a few years ago was only worth a police man's salary. Captain Max Schmittberger is credited with being worth $100,000, which he has accumulated since he has been a policeman, and all from his salary. Thomas W.

THE GILLET GULCH IN THE PODGE ABA MOUNTAIN ALTAINA 426 GEORGE WASHINGTON STETSON. 1875 B. H. MORGAN. GEORGE WASHINGTON STETSON. Originator of An Invention Through Which Sawmill Work Has Been Revolutionized. "Stetson and success" are regarded as synonymous terms in the business life of Seattle when there is a great task to be accomplished in this city. George W. Stetson is always found in the fore and his name inspires other men to greater effort. Locating in Seattle in 1875, he formed a partnership with J. J. Post, when they established a sash and door factory which appears in the accompanying cut. From that meager beginning they gradually increased their plant until fifteen years ago they increased their establishment to its present size, and then began the manufacturing of all kinds of lumber. The output of their establishment at this time is 600,000 feet of lumber per day. Of this company Mr. George W. Stetson is the president. He is also president of the Puget Sound Lumber Company. Mr. Stetson was the first to manufacture cedar doors at Seattle, the first to construct wharves and improve tide lands, and also the pioneer in the sash and door business. He is the inventor and patentee of one of the greatest and most valuable inventions discovered for years pertaining to sawmill business. It has been aptly named a "ready TALES OF THE TOWN Continued from page 3. is said to be worth $400,000, which sum he accumulated from a police man's salary. William Murray is the name of another policeman who has laid up $500,000 out of his salary. Inpector Alexander Williams, who is now accredited a millionaire, succeeded in laying up his wealth while he was on the police force. If these New York officers are such successful savers as policemen, why not our own industrious mayor, who gets even a better salary than does the ordinary policeman?

Republican Candidate for Forty-ninth Legislative District, Snohomish County. It is always a pleasure to meet with a man who has won well-deserved distinction as a business man and citizen by force of character and good judgment, or, as familiarly termed, "good horse sense." We therefore take the liberty of presenting our readers in this issue a lifelike portrait of such a man in the person of B. H. Morgan, Esq., or "Our Ben," as he is more familiarly spoken of in the community of Snohomish, where he has been one of its leading business citizens for twenty years or more past. He is the senior member of the prosperous business of Morgan Bros., lumber, sash and door manufacturers, of Snohomish. Mr. Morgan is emphatically a Washington boy, a "capital fellow," being born in the city of Olympia in the year 1861. It speaks volumes to the credit of this firm that such a thing as a strike has never occurred with it, their "fair and square" methods giving no provocation for resort to strikes; while many of its employees have been with them almost continuously from eight to fourteen years. It is seldom that we find blended in one man so many characteristics that commend him to the cordial support of both the business and labor interests of his locality; hence it is not surprising that he has so early taken such a hold of the masses as the fittest man to represent 1875 We Are Leaders in Red Cedar Shingles Cedar, Spruce and Fir, Bevel Siding Sash, Doors, Blinds and Moulding General : Mill : Work The Only Mill on NORTHERN PACIFIC The Only Mill on the Pacific Coast Having Side Track Connections with the Three Great Transcontinental Lines Three more meritorious or popular operas could not have been selected and the producing company is all that could be desired.

No tourist or traveler should be ignorant of this scenic panorama which Nature has provided practically at "our very door." The scenery on the line of the Monte Cristo after leaving Everett cannot be described in the space allotted this article. In fact the trip must be taken to give one even a vague description of it. The route of the railway along the Stillaguish River is indeed one of grandeur. On leaving Granite Falls, which is three hundred feet above the sea level, the train runs through several miles of dense forest until it suddenly emerges by the canyon of Stillaguam sh, which dashes down its channel hundreds of feet below the track. Until the train passes Barlow Pass, which is near Monte Cristo, it is one succession of grand views, here a horseshoe curve, a cataract, now a beautiful waterfall, all of these scenes blending in one harmonious whole to make the trip one never to be forgotten. The rolling stock employed on the Monte Cristo is of the latest and most improved style, and will compare with any stock used on the transcontinental lines. The employees of this road are gentlemanly and polite and seem to take a pride in designating to the traveler the points of interest. While it must become monotonous to them, one would really imagine that the conductor and trainmen were making their second trip over the route. STETSON R. W.

McBride has moved his law office to rooms 77-80 Sullivan building on First avenue, with Judge Winsor. The word "graft" was freely used in connection with the carnival for the two weeks of its continuance, and "fake" was the term applied to the recent pugilistic event that took place in this city, but somehow the race track managers have conducted the racing that the words "fake" and "graft" have not been applied to it.

By all means keep grafting and faking out of the racing association. An ideal place for real, genuine Prohibitionists is Fremont, for there is not a saloon in the place.

In presenting the name of the above to the Republican state convention for congressional honors, Snohomish county is practically a unit for his candidacy. While the county recognizes the efforts put forth in its behalf by the present Congressman, it also feels that with the added Congressman allotted this state that Snohomish county has increased in wealth, population, and her varied interests of timber, agricultural and mineral, it behooves this county to have some one at the seat of government; in other words, a friend at court. The mill men bordering on the banks of the Snohomish river are crying for appropriations to dredge the river at several points between Everett and Marysville. To the south the farmers contiguous to Everett and Snohomish wish to have the same stream navigable to the extent that the mosquito fleet plying the same may be able to navigate the river up to and beyond Snohomish. With these and other improvements which the Snohomishites are insisting upon, that the delegation will use all means to nominate their man goes without saving. To prove that this county is thoroughly in earnest in this fight, the six members of the legislative district can be bartered by Brownell wherever his candidacy can be enhanced by such an exchange, and as Harold Preston, Levi Ankeny and John L. Wilson are looking for votes to lay in cold storage, there will evidently be "something doing" in Tacoma on the 10th. Frank Brownell is a well known citizen of Snohomish county; was born April 21, 1867, at Little Compton, Rhode Island. His father was a farmer. At the age of fourteen he left home and worked his way through the Friends' school of Providence, Rhode Island, graduating in 1884. He then entered Brown University, graduating in 1888. After attending Columbia law school, of New York City, he was admitted to the bar in 1890, coming to Tacoma, Wash., the same year, taking up the practice of law, moving to Everett in 1892, where he has since resided. In 1894 he married Miss Josephine Noble, of Seattle, Wash. He has always taken an active interest in Republican politics, and in 1894-96-98 and 1900 was found espousing the cause of the Republican candidates and their policy. STETSON & POST MILL CO.

In a test of this machine's powers and efficiency and working on two-inch stock, an average of 12,500 feet per hour was maintained with ease while making stock from 2x3 to 2x14 inches. As any lumberman will understand from this statement that this is a remarkable record and stamps the machine as one of the wonders of this century. Sawmill men all over the northwest recognize in this machine a big saving of time and money, two of the elements that must necessarily enter largely in the success of a thorough sawmill man. Mr. Stetson comes of good old English stock, his ancestors migrating to America in 1643. While Mr. Stetson is democratic in his domestic life, it can be seen that he is eligible to the "Sons of American Revolution." There is one feature about the conducting of the enormus business of the Stetson-Post Mill Company that other large corporations could follow to an advantage and that is of civility. Mr. Bradley, the manager and superintendent, with his retinue o' bookkeepers, clerks, accountants, stenographers and stockmen seem to vie with each other as to which can excel. in the treatment of the many patrons of this concern, in fact they seem to have this motto at all times in their mind, viz: "No institution is too important to ignore the laws of courtesy."

Originator of An Invention Through Which Sawmill Work Has Been Revolutionized. "Stetson and success" are regarded as synonymous terms in the business life of Seattle when there is a great task to be accomplished in this city, George W. Stetson is always found in the fore and his name inspires other men to greater effort. Locating in Seattle in 1875 he formed a partnership with J. J. Post, when they established a sash and door factory which appears in the accompanying cut. From that meager beginning they gradually increased their plant until fifteen years ago they increased their establishment to its present size and then began the manufacturing of all kinds of lumber. The output of their establishment at this time is 690,000 feet of lumber per day. Of this company Mr. George W. Stetson is the president. He is also president of the Puget Sound Lumber Company. Mr. Stetson was the first to manufacture cedar doors at Seattle, the first to construct wharves and improve tide lands, and also the pioneer in the sash and door business. He is the inventor and patron of one of the greatest and most valuable inventions discovered for years pertaining to sawmill business.

If these New York officers are such successful savers as policemen, why not our own industrious mayor, who gets even a better salary than does the ordinary policeman? --- The Tivoli Opera Company of San Francisco, at the Grand all next week, to take the road for their annual summer tour of the coast and interior cities, and will present three of the biggest favorites in the whole Tivoli repertoire, "The Toy Maker," "The Serenade," and "The Idol's Eve." Republican Candidate for Forty-ninth Legislative District, Snohomish County. It is always a pleasure to meet with a man who has won well-deserved distinction as a business man and citizen by force of character and good judgment, or, as familiarly termed, "good sense sense." We therefore take the liberty of presenting our readers in this issue a lifelike portrait of such a man in the person of B. H. Mergan, Esq., or "Our Ben," as he is more familiarly spoken of in the community of Snohomish, where he has been one of its leading business citizens for twenty years or more past. He is the senior member of the prosperous business of Mergan Bres., lumber, sash and door manufacturers, or Snohomish, Mr. Mergan is emphatically a Washington boy, a "capital fellow" being born in the city of Olympia in the year 1861. It speaks volumes to the credit of this firm that such a thing as a strike has never occurred with it their "air and square" methods giving no prosecution for resort to strikes; while many of its employees have been with them almost continuously from eight to fourteen years. It is seldom that we find blended in one man so many characteristics that commend him to the cordial support of both the business and labor interests of his locality; hence it is not surprising that he has so early taken such a hold of the masses as the fittest man to represent We Are Leaders in Red Cedar Shingles Cedar, Spruce and Fir, Bevel Siding Sash, Doors, Blinds and Moulding General : Mill : Work The Only Mill on NORTHERN PACIFIC The Only Mill on the Pacific Coast Having Side Track Connections with the Three Great Transcontinental Lines Three more meritorious or popular operas could not have been selected and the producing company is all that could be desired.
