Cole, of Tacoma The Democratic state convention, after a most stormy session, finally adjourned after placing the above named ticket in the field to combat with the overwhelming Republican majorities in this state. James E. Bell, the well-known Everett Democrat, who was first nominated by the convention, declined to accept the nomination after the convention had adjourned, and though he placed his party in a most embarrassing position, he absolutely refused to reconsider his declination. The Democrats believed that Mr. Bell would make the strongest race, owing to the fact that the northwest was somewhat disgruntled at the treatment accorded it by the late Republican convention, and Mr. Bell believed as much, but after the Democrats placed the appointive railroad commission plank in their platform, he absolutely refused to consider accepting the nomination in a single instance, and the Democrats will be short the necessary sinews of war thereby. It was then up to the committee to act, and it substituted the name of Frank B. Cole of Tacoma in lieu of James E. Bell of Everett. The well-known Democrat and single taxer, Charles G. Heifner, who was insurance commissioner under Secretary of State Will Jenkins, was selected by the state central committee as chairman, and he will direct the Democratic campaign in this state from now on. The Seattle Republican insisted all along that King county should have a congressman and now it is absolutely certain of seeing the goal of its ambitions realized, as both the Republican and Democratic parties have nominated Seattle men for Congress, and one or the other of them will certainly be elected. A $40,000,000 CHURCH FUND The bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church issued in November, 1898, a call for the organization of a movement to secure a twentieth century thank offering of $20,000,000. This fund was to be independent of and in addition to the ordinary church contributions and was to be subscribed and paid before January 1, 1903. The fund was to be devoted to education, charitable and philanthropic work, endowments for city evangelization, and payment of church debts. Later other branches of the Methodist church in this country and of POLITICAL The late Republican convention was lacking in the development of future state officers. Perhaps Governor McBride was the only one on which the actions of the state convention had any significant bearing. If the convention had not adopted the commission plank McBride would not have been a serious candidate for the governorship in 1904. It did, however, adopt the commission plank and now he has a fighting show for the nomination. The vote on the commission plank developed the fact that Governor McBride is bitterly opposed in many counties of this state, and if the same feeling against him continues for two years he will be defeated for the gubernatorial nomination and then Henry G. McBride will as said Senator Turner in the Spokane Democratic county convention a few weeks ago, bolt the Republican party bag and baggage and join issues with Turner to control the politics of the state as mongrel Democrats. On the other hand, Governor McBride in winning his point in the state convention strengthened himself very materially, and unless he gets up against the real thing when the next legislature is in session he has the CAMPAIGN CAMPAIGN BUTTONS CELLULOID BUTTONS The cheapest and best way to advertise so everybody will know what you want.

The Church Economist publishes reports to show that the funds collected up to date reach a total of $40,000,000. The Methodist Episcopal Church North has contributed $17,000,000 of the promised $20,000,000. The Canadian Methodists promised $1,000,000, and have collected $1,250,000. The Canadian Presbyterians promised $1,000,000, and have given $1,430,000. The English Wesleyans have secured $4,500,000, and the English Congregationalists $2,312,000, or $600,000 POT - PIE strongest ground work for a political machine in this state that has ever before existed. If the legislature passes the commission bill, and under the circumstances it is almost compelled to do so, or lay itself liable to be defeated at the polls in 1904, the material for Governor McBride's political machine will be furnished and with it he and his friends will be able to brow-beat the next Republican state convention into nominating just such men as he will dictate. Of course the governor has never been tried by the fires of a legislative session and when he will have gone through that part by vetuing many bills and measures which he and his friends oppose he will thereby incur the displeasure of many of the leading Republicans of the state to such an extent that his grasp on the party will perhaps be shaken and he will be opposed more two years from now than he was at the last state convention, and that will be saying a good deal. There may be differences in the Republican party, but the differences pale into complete insignificance in comparison with the differences in the Democratic party not only as to the BUTTONS TO WAIT PRICES BB & CO. BUILDING SEATTLE first ba be tra While t mission in the s dent th from w torial a est stre senators tween Ankeny, show to that eti arrives SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1902 16 to 1 The above cut will give the readers of the Seattle Republican an idea of what the late Democratic convention in Tacoma really looked like. Two years ago this cut was a splendid representation of the Bryan lost cause, more commonly known as 16 to 1. It still represents Democracy, at least state Democracy, owing to the fact that in the late convention there was but one sensible Democrat in the bunch—Hon James E. Bell, he refusing to accept congressional nomination, realizing that he had no more show of winning than a lump of ice would have in flying through hades, while the "16" represented a howling Democratic mob who seem to have no more sense than to still stick to a sinking ship. It can be safely predicted that the Republican nominees for congress in this state will get 16,000 votes to the Democratic nominees' 1,000, and thus make the old 16 to 1 story a thousandfold stronger against the Democrats than it ever was before. Personally George F. Cotterill is a most estimable gentleman, but, "like old dog Tray," he is in very bad company, and therefore will be defeated as badly as any as any of the others. more than they promised. The United Methodist Free churches of England undertook to raise 100,000 guineas, and in two years have raised 104,000. The Baptists of Great Britain have raised 1,100,000 of the $1,250,000 promised, and the Calvinistic Methodists $400,000 of the $500,000 they promised. By the end of the year 1902 the churches directly interested in the movement hope to have the full amount of $50,000,000 subscribed and paid. The amount raised by the Methodist Episcopal church will be disposed of by the committee appointed by the state ticket, but as to the respective county tickets. But a few years ago the Democrats, Populists, Socialists and every other kind of fool politicalism that could be thought of were merged into a Fusion party, and this combined conglomeration the Republicans had to fight. This year, however, it is very much different, for all of the respectiveisms have nominated tickets of their own. Spokane county is a veritable hot-bed at present, and it can be safely said, owing to the prevailing conditions there, that the Republican party will win out by an overwhelming majority. There are five county tickets in Spokane, as follows: The Republican, the Democratic, the Populist, the Socialist and the Prohibitionist. The two leading tickets are the Republican and the Democratic. Te Prohibition ticket will draw largely from the Republicans, while the Populist and the Socialist tickets will draw almost solely from the Democratic ticket and thus weaken it to such an extent as to doom it to defeat and assure the Republicans winning from top to bottom. . . . The vote on the railroad commission bill in the late Republican state convention is one that may be studied with interest by all factions of Republican politicians. Of the Eastern Washington counties Asotin, Adams Garfield, Kittitas, Lincoln, Okanogan Whitman and Yakima voted as a unit for the McBride proposition as against the railroad proposition, as likewise did a majority of the delegates from Che'an and Spokane counties. Ferry Douglas and Stevens counties divided their votes on the commission plank, Columbia, Franklin, Klickitat and Walla Walla voted with the railroads on the measure, and thereby hangs a tale. After a careful consideration of this vote it is plain to be seen that the railroads will support Mr. Ankeny in the coming senatorial fight. It will further be seen that John L. Wilson will get a majority of the Eastern Washington legislative delegates, not including the counties that voted with the railroads, and Whitman. It can likewise be safely said that Harold Preston will also get a few scattering votes in Eastern Washington on the first ballot, which votes will later on be transferred to John L. Wilson. While the ballot taken on the commission plank had no direct bearing in the senatorial fight, it is very evident that it showed to some extent from where each of the three senatorial aspirants expected their greatest strength. While the fight for the senatorship as it now stands is between John L. Wilson and Levi Ankeny, yet Harold Preston has one show to be elected, if it so happens that either Wilson or Ankeny early arrives at the conclusion that it is impossible for either of them to hold their followers, one or the other may rush to Preston rather than to see the other elected, and with the view of making terms for two years hence Hon. J. H. Shively, who is at present insurance commissioner in the secretary of state's office, is politically ambitious and has been ever since he represented Whatcom county in the state legislature. When Mr. Shively won his first political victory as chairman of the Republican state central committee he stood in line for the governorship of the state and almost without opposition so far as the nomination was concerned, but he got under the influence of a few bad political actors a few months after the victory had been won and cooked his own goose. For a while his political escapades in connection with George U. Piper caused him much annoyance and many disappointments, and even yet whenever his name is mentioned that old affair looms up like a house a house Mr. Shively, finding it almost impossible for him to reach the goal of his political ambition by longer clinging to the state of Washington, has accepted an invitation from Chairman Dick, of the Ohio Republican state committee, to canvass that state in the interests of the Republican party, and if the Pie-maker is not mistaken, Mr. Shively hopes to so ingratiate himself into the good graces of the Republican leaders of that state, including Mark Hanna, as to be able to land some prominent federal position, perhaps represent his government at some foreign country after the election is over. There is no doubt but that he will do this, for he is a pleasing speakre and has posted himself well on the political situation and will make a favorable impression wherever he appears in the state of Ohio. When a member of the legislature of this state he was styled the Daniel Webster of the house because of the fact that he was the most logical, oratorical and convincing speaker in that august assembly. For the next six weeks or more Seattle will be a veritable political hotbed, as both the Republican and the Democratic state central committees have selected this city as the seat of war. Chairman Morrison has committee rooms in the Brunswick Hotel, 907 First avenue, and, though he has not as yet selected his secretary, the office is open for business and the chairman at his desk. The Democratic brethren have not as yet found suitable quarters for Chairman Heffner, but such will be found, it is hoped, within the next few days and then the campaign will be begun in dead earnest. bishops. A large part of the fund raised by the English Wesleyans will go to the purchase of the London Aquarium, which is to be converted into a church and to become the head quarters for the Wesleyans of the world. The English Congregational fund has been turned to payment of church debts and the money raised by the British Baptists goes to a sustentation fund for the support of ministers. But, to whatever purpose the fund is devoted, the raising of $40,000,000 in two years is the best evidence of the high spirit and purpose of the churches that entered upon so great an undertaking. . . . . . . The Republican county central committee has opened headquarters in the Arlington Hotel and Chairman Knickerbocker and Secretary Whitaker will be on hand from now until the election. The candidates will hold a meeting Saturday afternoon to make the necessary arrangements for the campaign, but actual political hostilities will perhaps not be begun before the first of October. The Democratic county central committee still holds headquarters in the Howard block and will doubtless continue there during the campaign. Already the Democrats have begun the campaign in a quiet way and the committee has decided it to the best interests of the party to make something of a still hunt instead of an open "stump" campaign. Of course the Democrats will still be hunting after the poils have been closed. Speaking about the Democrats' still hunt reminds the Pie-maker that they have hopes of electing Ed Cudihee, sheriff, and Harry Dreese, county auditor. Cudihee, they believe, is almost as popular as he was two years ago when he defeated Sheriff Van de Vanter by a large majority. Mr. Cudihee is going to make a hard race, though the odds are against him for election. Harry Dreese will make a hard fight for county auditor because of the fact that George Lamping has not made an ideal county auditor in any sense of the word. Instead of attending to his business he has been absent from the office most of the time since he has taken charge of the office. The Democratic state convention engaged in its usual blundering tactics last Thursday, regardless of the many persons that were offered up the previous Sunday for a baptism of common sense. Jim Ham did not attend the convention Tuesday, and went to Idaho to inform the convention by wire that he could not be with the boys. The train that hauled our Democratic brethren from this city to the convention at Tacoma was over two hours on the way and was a reminder that a railroad commission is needed. It is said that Clark Davis looked very much out of place in the Democratic convention. He went off on fusion and whether he likes his company or not is staying by the "unpurified." SPOKANE STATE FAIR For this occasion the Northern Pacific will make round trip rate of $9.50. Tickets on sale Oct. 8th. Return limit Oct. 15th. We, the Republican party of the State of Washington, in convention assembled, adopt the following platform: "In common with the good people of all the earth we mourn the untimely death of our great leader and president, William McKinley. His character, his achievements and his fame belong to no party, to no state and to no country. They are the common heritage of all humanity, and will ever rest as a sacred benediction to the civilized world. "His work failed not at his death, for his mantle fell upon the shoulders of one who is wise, fearless and able to follow in the pathway of national policy laid down by him. "We congratulate the people upon the unexampled prosperity of this nation. "History has proven the wisdom and soundness of the principles contained in the St. Louis and Philadelphia platforms, and we hereby reaffirm the same. "We endorse the foreign and domestic policy of President Roosevelt, and pledge our congressional delegation to the hearty support thereof. "We especially commend the attitude of the president toward trusts. "We endorse the wise, able and p triotic administration of state affairs by Governor McBride. "We are unqualifiedly in favor of the retention of the Philippine islands and encouraging the development of our present growing trade with the Orinet. "We favor the admission of those territories now seeking admission into the Union when they shall have become as populous as was the State of Washington when admitted. "We are heartily in favor of the policy of President Roosevelt in regard to the reclamation of arid lands; and our delegation in congress is instructed to use its efforts in securing the establishment of reservoirs in this state. "We endorse the course of Senator Addison G. Foster and Congressmen Wesley L. Jones and Francis W. Cushman. "We favor a law providing for the safeguarding of all machinery, places and appliances in mills, factories, or other workshops of this state where the character of such dangerous machinery, places or appliances will so permit, with adequate penalties for the violation of such laws, and such other and additional legislation as may be necessary to carryout and enforce the principle here involved. "We also favor an eight-hour labor law on state and federal work, excepting in cases of emergency. "We favor practical legislation for the improvement of public roads of the state and the advancement of the good roads movement. "We are in favor of the passage by the next legislature of an anti-pass bill in compliance with the provisions of our state constitution. "We pledge an economical administration of state and county affairs." Respectfully submitted by the chairman, "We are in favor of the passage of a bill by the next legislature establishing a railroad commission, to consist of three members, to be appointed by the governor, no more than two to be taken from the dominant political party, said commission to be clothed with power to regulate freight and passenger rates, to determine the value of railroad property for purposes of assessment and taxation, to prevent unjust discriminations, and to inquire and remedy such abuses as may be found to exist." . . . . . . . . . . . . REPUBLICAN PLATFORM We especially commend the attitude of the president toward trusts TALES OF THE TOWN In March, 1898, the Cottage City made her first trip to Southeastern Alaska and on her way up she ran into a blind bay and in turning to get out ran onto the rocks. She proceeded to get into her course, but before she got out of the bay, she again ran onto a rock and from there her captain ran her onto the beach, and finding the injuries slight she proceeded on her way to Sitka. Since that time the Cottage City has met with no serious mishaps. It was claimed of the first mishap that the rudder post was fractured and the ship could not be controlled, while some of the passengers attributed the mishap to an overdose of poor whisky in the system of the pilot. . . . The membership of the concern known as Mayer Bros., who have figured conspicuously in the courts for the past few months, owing to the fact that they have had a number of burglaries to deal with, are now figuring in the courts in a different light from what they have in the past, for now they themselves are the defendants in the United States court confronting the grave charge of counterfeiting. It seems that they have been plating five-cent pieces so as to make them resemble five-dollar gold pieces and then they turn them over to various confederates who floated them and divided up the profit with the firm. A confession was wrung from one of the men caught in the act of passing the counterfeit five-dollar pieces and he squeaked on the lump lot of them and, as a result, they are all now defendants instead of prosecutors as they have been in the other cases in which they have figured in the courts. No jewelry firm in the Northwest has been more successful than Mayer Bros., and they of all men should have the least cause to counterfeit for the sake of gain. . . . School opened last Monday, and, according to the secretary's report, there are 1,000 more pupils already in the schools than there were a year ago, and yet there are others who should be in school. Parents should not overlook the fact this year that they are liable to a fine from $1.00 to $25.00 for failing to send their children to school at least six months during the school year and from $5.00 to $50.00 if they hire them out during that time.

Place one of those guides in the hands of your visitors and you need give yourself no further worry about them seeing the sights of the Queen City. The law placing the burden of buying school books on the public is all right and should become universal in the states, but the law should go one step further and provide heavy soiled shoes and fine tooth combs from the public treasury. Mr. A. P. Sawyer of the P.L. left for Los Angeles, California, last Tuesday and will be absent from the city for eight months. On account of throat trouble Mr. Sawyer finds it absolutely necessary for him to spend his winters in Southern California. Fletcher's removal of the "lid" from the Chamber of Commerce, when he represented that august body at St. Paul a few weeks ago, raised a bigger racket than he had counted on. When the Democratic platform committee met at Tacoma last Tuesday, the question of ratifying the St. Louis platform, free silver and all, was discussed and a member from the southeast moved to amend by endorsing the platform of 1864, which it will be remembered declared the Civil War a failure. Eastlake avenue is being treated to a new cement sidewalk and while this improvement is going on the bicycle path is "non est." It is reported that Kullies, the cigar man, said several things at Tacoma Tuesday. THE NORTHERN PACIFIC Will make R.

HUMPHREY Just where the connecting link between Governor McBride and Senator Turner has been fettered is hard to be pointed out just now, but there is no doubt of its existence somewhere down the line. Medical science is killing so many patients of late that it is very questionable if the medical science of this age is not a curse instead of a cure for all the illies, aches and pains of out later-day civilization. "Loop the loop" on the part of bicycle riders may be a great feat, but if spectators expect to see it and get away alive they will have to construct some kind of a contrivance by which they can view it from afar. The Walla Walla Argus is not quite completely converted to Republican prosperity and now sees the error of its former political ways, but it is so near it, yes, so very near it, that it can all but feel it in the air. "Unfair to organized labor" placards and banners do not stop very many persons from trading at places under the ban of organized labor. Organized labor is a great deal more unfair to itself than the people are unfair to it. --- "The clergyman's son" may be put up after God's own heart, as writes Rev. Major, but persons having had business relations with the "preacher's boy" are of the opinion that the boy has a darn poor way of showing his Lordly lineage. That interview in the Times, where Governor McBride gives himself complete credit for the endorsing of the ocommission plank in the late Republican convention, to some extent shows what a political monster the Republican party of this state has to deal with. San Juan Hill is now an international public park for Cuba and the United States. Had it not been for the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth infantry it instead of being a hill of glory for Uncle Sam would be a hill which our country would have never wanted to look upon again. He who expects President Roosevelt to make good any former professions of friendship for organized labor by indiscriminately interfering in the Pennsylvania coal strike one way or the other further than to offer his time and talent as a pacemaker between the two warring "trusts" has less sense than Thompson's colt that swam the river to get a drink. Fitzsimmons' prayer to win his last prize fight, that is if he really prayed at all, was as much out of place as would have been a burglar's prayer to successfully loot a safe or murder and rob a victim. Prize fighting is as much against good government, Christian civilization and common decency as robbery or murder itself and prayers for its success just as inconsistent. William C. McMillan, son of the late Senator McMillan, of Michigan, announces that he will not be a candidate for the United States senatorship made vacant by the death of his father. In other words, Mr. McMillan is not desirous of scrambling over dead men's shoes, and especially when the owner of the shoes was his father. Next Monday forty years ago Abraham Lincoln, the great emancipator, took the first step toward breaking the shackles of the Negroes in this country by issuing a proclamation declaring that he would set them free the January following unless the South laid down its arms, which he had every reason to believe it would not do. He kept his work, and the Negro that does not now worship his memory is more brute than human. And now comes New York and proposes a moving platform for the great Brooklyn bridge in order to prevent a congestion of pedestrians wishing to cross the river. The idea is capital and we would suggest that the Democratic party adopt a similar platform for campaign purposes. Nothing would be more appropriate for that party's use than a moving platform that it might be applicable to whatever conditions that arise. When the Washington Standard admits that the Caucasians of this country are emotional, sensational and, of course, fanatical, even surpassing the French in these respects, and that they would have worshiped even a Harry Tracy if an opportunity had been given them, it either exaggerates, pervaricates or openly confesses that no race of people on God's green earth is so sickle as the white race. How about it, my Celtic friend? "Fatal race riots" sent out from Vienna has a familiar sound to the denizens of this country. In Vienna it is the Anglo-Saxon showing his savagry against the Jews, while in this country it is the Anglo-Saxon pracalcing his inhuman barbarities and savagry against the Negro. Wherever Anglo-Saxon civilization predominates you can rest assured that barbarious practices on weaker races found among them is as common as their civilization customs. Editor Hayakawa, who has for some time been editing a Japanese-American newspaper in Seattle, has evidently been teaching his readers too much American freedom and they took advantage of being in America by completely demolishing the editor's shop last Saturday night because he published something to which they took exceptions. We sympathize with the editor, but congratulate the other fellows for their early adoption of the all-American principles. Early in life Theodore Roosevelt mapped out a political course for himself, which he has and is carrying out almost to the letter. President Cleveland, to whom he early in life disclosed his plans, tried to dissuade him from his purpose, but young Roosevelt laughed his lecturer to scorn and continued in the even tenor of his way. Success has been his at every turn of the road. Success will be his in 1904, and we would not be surprised if success were not again his in 1908. Railroads may not be taxed as much as they are deserving, but is a railroad commission more likely to do it than our state equalization board? If the railroads control the members of that board by corrupt methods are they not just as likely to control the members of the commission by the very same methods? The sum and substance of the whole matter is the state of Washington does not need any kind of a railroad commission, neither appointive nor elective. William Waldorf Astor, according to the latest, longs to be an American citizen again. If weary Willie, like the proverbial prodigal son, wishes to return to his own no one has the right to object, nor should they unduly criticize him in so doing. There were more damphols in America with their eyes bedimmed with royal robes than Billy Astor, who have profited by sad experiences and he certainly would be a much more desirable citizen than the hundreds and thousands of European slums that are being daily dumped into this country, and if they, why not Astor, if he likes? Perhaps Editor John Miller Murphy is quite correct in charging that the Republican campaign book for this years "fails to meet important issues," but the voters will hardly believe him because of the fact that he and his party have said the self-same things about every other Republican campaign book that has been issued and they either lied about those or they are lying about this one. The voters know that there is a lie out and not knowing which one of them is the real lie will vote the Republican ticket until further information has been imparted to them of a more convincing nature than that given by the Democratic party and its organs. 1862 - RETROSPECT - 1902 Colored People's Day....

J. Beveridge, of Indiana, has opened the Republican campaign in California by delivering in San Francisco last Monday night one of his characteristic campaign speeches. Senator Beveridge is considered one of the most convincing public orators now living, especially in the United States, and his arraignment of the Democratic party last Monday compared favorably with his former efforts along that line. He is campaigning the state in the interests of Geo. C. Pardee, the gubernatorial nominee, and the other Republican state nominees. It was necessary that the Republicans of that state import some of the best speakers of the country for their campaign owing to the fact that the party is almost spit in twain over factual differences. The great forest fire which has raged over parts of Oregon and Washington for the past week or more is perhaps the most destructive of its kind, has ever before been reported in the United States. Some thirty eight deaths have already been reported as a result of the destructive fires, and it is thought many more will yet be reported from the various fire-striken districts. Hundreds of families are homeless and in need of actual assistance owing to the fact that not only their forests, fences and fields were burned, but their dwelling houses as well. The darkness which overspread the entire Northwest for two days or more, during which time the streets of all the cities and towns had to be artificially lighted during the day, the same as if night prevailed. On account of the dense clouds of smoke that hung over the entire country the superstitions were led to believe that perhaps Mount Rainier or some other undiscovered volcano was in action and a terrible catastrophe such as befall the island of Martinique was to be the lot of this entire section of the United States. Happily, however, the smoke and fires have all subsided at this writing and it is hoped that in future the proper authorities will take such steps as will prevent a similar occurrence in the forests of this country. After a stormy debate, pro and con, the Northwestern University, the educational head of Methodism in the United States, has decided to draw the COLOR LINE and not admit young colored women to the dormitories of the institution. Singular as it may seem, the Women's Educational Association of this great church led the fight against colored girls being admitted as boarders in the dormitories and finally succeeded in preventing it by a most decisive vote. Here's a most striking example of preaching one thing and practicing another. For the past half a century the Methodist Episcopal church has taken the lead apparently in educating the emancipated Negroes of this country, and yet when it comes to a test for the Negroes to receive that kind of education that whites receive a most decided objection is offered and sustained. He who wrote: "Consistency. thou art a jewel," must certainly have peered into the future and looked straight at the actions of the Methodist Episcopal church in this particular, for consistency was never placed in a more ridiculous position than in this instance. When the educational department of the Methodist Episcopal church, North, closed its doors against the proper education of the young colored girls of this country because they are colored it practically said to a half a million of its members: "You are not entitled to a classical education and its refining influences." It is too bad that a church would permit its institutions to turn their backs on a part of its membership for no other reason than because their color is of a different hue from a majority of its members. Speaking about the color line having been drawn in the Methodist university reminds the writer that in the past two decades the Roman Catholic church has been having phenomenal success in proselyting among the Negroes of the United States. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that the Catholic churches increased a hundredfold in its Negro membership within the past decade and it can be safely predicted that its conversions among the Negroes will be almost a thousandfold within the next decade and all because the Roman Catholic church sees no color or condition in its membership. During all the dark and gloomy days of slavery the Catholic church was the Negro's friend. It is still his best friend, and when the Negro learns to stick to his best friend, whether religious or otherwise, he will have learned a most valuable lesson. The writer knows from experience that the Catholic schools of this country make no exception on account of the color of its pupils, and young colored girls are received with open arms and accorded the same treatment as young white girls, while just the opposite is true of the various Protestant churches of this country. Had we a hundred young girls to place in seminaries and schools of higher learning they would be sent to Catholic schools simply because the heads of that great church preach and practice the same thing, while the heads of the Methodist church and the other Protestant churches so far as the coed people are concerned preach one thing and practice another. The vote which was recently polled in the state of Vermont is being much talked about at present. For the past half a century this state has been a strictly Prohibition state, but a sentiment has been growing for the past twenty years against the proposition and at the last election 35,000 votes were cast for local option and high license, while only 30,500 were cast for the temperance cause. If it is proper for a majority to rule, then the Prohibition law of the state of Vermont should be abolished at once the opponents of Prohibition have a $4,500 mortgage against it. Of course prohibition does not always prohibit, but there is no doubt of the fact that it does a great deal toward preventing the young of the land from promiscuously entering saloons and drink resorts as they do where they are run wide open, as in the state of Washington. It is no trouble for boys and girls, young men and women, and, in fact, everybody to get all the drink they want in this state. Such is not true of Prohibition states, and if it has accomplished nothing else that would amply pay for the existence of those laws. And now comes Dr. M. L. Perry, in a well-written article read before a Southern sociological society, and predicts the early extermination of the Negro race on account of various diseases that have become prevalent among them since the emancipation, chiefly consumption and tuberculosis. Periodically some learned physician bobs up serenely and predicts that the Negro will soon run his course and has no more, and yet the census reports show the Negro increasing at a more rapid rate than any other distinctive nationality. The increase is natural, hence any statement to the effect that the Negro is dying out is branded as a falsehood by the United States officials. The doctor is perhaps correct in his statement that the Negroes of this age are subject to more ills and complaints than the Negroes of savery days, and yet the doctor must admit that the Negro is increasing in spite of these at the present time 500 per cent more rapidly than he did under the institutions of slavery. If such predictions were not of a periodical nature one might feel alarmed at them, but Dr. Perry was talking his prejudices, hopes, wishes and desires rather than the actual facts. There is no doubt, as has been well said by the doctor, that the Negro does not exercise the same care for the preservation of his health as does his white brother, and he is probably dying of consumption and tuberculosis more rapidly now than in slavery days, but owing to the fact that they are coming more rapidly, the discreetions on the part of a few do not materially lessen the number of Negroes all over the country. Mrs. Shaver, that Idaho woman who recently resigned the presidency of the Woman's Republican Club, "disgusted with politics," as she put it, was perhaps no worse disgusted with politics than was politics disgusted with her. Women, however, are not the only ones that occasionally become disgusted with politics and give up responsible positions in order to retire to private business, for man, master of the creation, frequently does the very same thing. So it argues nothing against women taking active parts in politics if they so desire because Mrs. Shaver went off half cooked deprecating the participation of all women in politics. No mistake was made by the Tacoma News when it said: "Seattle has an army of adventurers where recruits for Central American revolutions ought to be easily enlisted." The citizens of Seattle are a thrifty, hardy lot of fellows, plucky and self-reliant to a fault, and that fully explains Seattle's commercial, financial and numerical superiority over the dreamy denizens of the City of Destiny, commonly known as Tacoma. The News is correct in saying Seattle can furnish South American revolutions with splendid operating material and she can likewise furnish material not only to South merica for that, but to any country for any purpose.

Two hundred and eighty-three years ago the history of the Negro in America began on the banks of the James River in the State of Virginia. He was then a slave. Today the descendants of those Negroes again assembled upon the banks of this historic river, in the city of Richmond—as bankers, manufacturers, editors, farmers, merchants and mechanics, representing every class of agricultural, industrial and professional life. The dark-skinned people who appeared here in 1619 were the chained creatures of others, penniless and friendless. The two hundred delegates who assembled today are members of the National Negro Business League, representing the best thought and morals of the 10,000,000 souls that now constitute our population. They are educated, distinguished in bearing, comfortably provided with the comforts of life, and have homes of their own, free from a control not of their personal choice, citizens of the greatest republic on earth, and to whose development they have given their full share. This magnificent gathering is presided over by a man who is easily the foremost Negro in the world, whose leadership has been built up by solidity of character which has year after year impressed itself upon the country and upon the race, from the highest to the lowest, and whose intrinsic worth has been conceded by the thinkers, the doers, and the financiers of the continent. This man, around whom revolves the most useful and practical of all race organizations is Booker T. Washington—himself the perfect embodiment and therefore the most forceful and convincing advocate of the philosophy he teaches. So thoroughly known has Dr. Washington become that to mention his name is to place the public in touch with his work, and to inculcate the fire of the "Tuskegee spirit." It was his personality that made the Negro business League possible; it is his superb management that holds it together and makes it a power for good; it is the warm esteem in which he is held that has won to a standard the real leaders of the race. The meetings held in Richmond, Virginia, August 25, 26 and 27 were the most successful, the most enthusiastic of the series because the plan of organization was cumulative in idea, and built from the ground up—because it followed the same line of scientific growth that characterized the growth of Dr. Washington himself—prove the value of a cause and then give it a demonstration so practical that those who scoff at first remain to pray for its prosperity. As Dr. Washington grew upon the nation, so has the League taken root and is growing. The Richmond gathering led by Dr. Washington, and permeated with a sincere admiration for the work to which his life is consecrated, sent out an influence that will tell upon the future of the race in a moral way, to which the men who came to see what the organization meant, returned full of zeal, encouraged by the interchange of experiences bringing out the importance of small beginnings. They go to their homes to work with even greater earnestness, to so improve their places of business that they may make a report at the next meeting that will compare favorably with the best. The plain talks of the President has had a wonderful effect upon the younger delegates and visitors, as his close observation so enabled him to reach their inner life as to make each feel that his own case is under consideration. As each owes a filial duty to a parent, he owes better results to the race's acknowledged champion, Booker T. Washington. The man who merely talks or who lives by giving advice to others how to get along without getting along himself had no place in this meeting of workingmen, and that more Mrs. Kate Baker, who sued the contractors for $10,000 for leaving an open exposed and through which she fell and broke her leg, recovered a judgment of $1,500.

To sum up, the third annual meeting of the National Negro Business League may be said to have accomplished the following definite results: First—It has taught the American people, white and black, that the Negro can make and is actually making a place for himself in the world of business. Second—It is teaching the Negro that there is no royal road to success, and that citizenship can be fully acquired along no line save that of hard and intelligently applied labor. Third—That no race can compete with any other race that does not strive to perform similar service in a superior fashion, and that the color line is emphasized by condition rather than complexion. Fourth—It has given a positive rebuke to those who hold national conventions for the purpose of making speeches and grinding personal axes to be used for political advancement. Fifth—It has taught the Negro that despite our retrogression in political influence, there is another open door through which an even brighter career may be found, and that lost ground can be regained by the development of character, land ownership and power at the bank. Sixth—It has taught us the folly of begging the white race for employment in lines of industry that we can supply for ourselves by sensible combinations of capital and a united support. Seventh—It has stimulated the Negro to diversify his occupations so that each branch can serve the needs of some other branch of race, and keep the Negro money amongst Negroes. It has convinced the opponents of industrial education that the teaching of manual dexterity, trades, etc., is an aid rather than a detriment to the devotees of the so-called higher education, and that too by the presence and testimony of a large percentage of college graduates and professional men who are also business factors or artisans. Eighth—It has supplied an unusually fine opportunity for intelligent men to get together in a semi-social way, to cultivate personal friendships and to illustrate the progress of the race toward the higher society plane. Ninth—It has taught us all that the Southern Negro can succeed in spite of the rankest of race prejudice, tthe best citizens respect energy and capacity wherever found, and that a national convention of thoughtful Negroes can find a welcome even in the hot-bed of the late Confederacy. Tenth—It has demonstrated beyond cavil that the strong men of the Negro race accept the leadership of Booker T. Washington, and endorse his work as the most practical plan for the most practical plan for the permanent uplift of the race.

He bore stro upon the importance of the bank The principal event of the evening was the annual address of President Washington. He was in excellent voice, and the increased volume and earnest eloquence of his tones were noticed by all. Always enthusiastic, putting his whole strength into an argument, Richmond saw Washington at his very best. His address was short, but every word counted and was delivered with cannonball directness. From the outset of the convention, he set an example in brevity and conservative statement, which added to the interest of the occasion. Dr. Washington described the early organization of the Business League was an example of the value of small beginnings, and illustrated further the fact that large results come from humble starts by telling the history of how Tuskegee was opened in a hen house which he cleaned out with the assistance of an old colored man, who doubted the safety of "cleaning out a hen house—in the daytime." He bore strongly upon character as an asset, upon the importance of the bank account and rating in one's own SPOKANE PERSONAL A social was given at the A. M. E church Tuesday evening. All report a pleasant time. Mr. J. P. Ball Sr. of Seattle is in the city and is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Carle. Mr. Ball is here assisting the Masonic lodge with its lodge affairs. Rev. and Mrs. J. S. Payne have returned to the city and are gladly well comed back again. It is Rev. Payne's intention to commence building his church very soon and as he has started this work he is the man to finish it. Mrs. F. W. Roberts and her son and daughter, Miss Louise Wright and Mr. John R. Wright, leave Tuesday morning for Ft. Harrison, Mont., where Mrs. Roberts will join her husband, who is a sargeant in Company B 24th infantry. Mrs. Roberts and family have been in our midst for about ten years and have been quite an addition to Spokane society.

T. rate of $6.95 Tickets on sale Sept. 29th to Oct. 4th The King of the Opium Ring comes to the Seattle Theatre next week, beginning with Sunday night, with the usual Saturday and Wednesday matinees. In view of the fact that "The King" has been seen before in this city, Manager Howe decided to allow popular prices to prevail at the Seattle during the regime of the King. While the character of the Chinaman has often portrayed on the stage, the authors of the play contend that this is the first time actual scenes as they are nightly enacted in the low opium dens of San Francisco have been reproduced behind the foot lights. The first act shows the deck of the Halcyon, an opium smuggler, lying off Melggs wharf. The story then --- AMUSEMENTS Mr. He believed in capable leadership, and the skills of leaders who live and carry all their business." Responsible men cannot move from place they have too many interests at stake in their without sober reflection. "I glad to say," Mr. Washington went on, "composed of workers, not mere talkers. They put in these programs have been asked to do, actually succeeded in demonstrating their some line of industry. We have no one who is to advise others to do that which he himself business may be, should bear in mind that a responsibility of developing his own business, city to the community in which he lives.

We must learn to bus-wards and not from the sky downwards." More was said along this line of plain advices and stories that brought forth tumultuous community. He believed in capable leadership, and disapproved of the class of leaders who live and carry all their belongings in a "grip-sack." Responsible men cannot move from place to place easily, for they have too many interests at stake in their community to leave without sober reflection. "I am glad to say," Mr. Washington went on, "that this League is composed of workers, not mere talkers. Those who are taking part in these programs have been asked to do so because they have actually succeeded in demonstrating their ability to succeed in some line of industry. We have no one on the program who is to advise others to do that which he himself has not done. Every man connected with this organization, no matter what his business may be, should bear in mind that not only has he the responsibility of developing his own business, but that he owes a duty to the community in which he lives. One of these responsibilities is to use his influence to take off of the street corners and from the barrooms and dens of sin and misery every colored man and boy found in idleness. One of the curses of the race, and one to which we cannot shut our eyes in honesty, is the large number of colored men who are inclined to flock to the cities and yield to the temptation of trying to live by their wits, without hard, productive industry. Let us rid the race of this class as rapidly as possible. * * * I hope that each one of you have come here determined to get something of encouragement, something of information, and enthusiasm which you can take back home with you and put into practical use for the benefit of the community in which you live. Let us never grow despondent, doubtful or discouraged. There is something in human nature everywhere which recognizes merit in the form of successful industry, business intelligence and high Christian character. Let us bear in mind that in the long run and in the last analysis, our influence and power for good will be measured by what our neighbors, black and white, have to say about us, rather than the word of the man who lives a thousand miles distant from our territory. Despise not small beginnings. We must learn to build from the ground upwards and not from the sky downwards." Much more was said along this line of plain advice, with app illustrations and stories that brought forth tumultuous applause. The New Officers ment, Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee; rst. R. H.

The plot centers around the attempts of Wah Sing, an educated Chinaman, to abduct Georgette, the star a part taken by Miss Kathryn Carvel He is fooled in the last act, when Georgette, whom Wah Sing would force into marriage, is replaced by a slave girl. Altogether the play is all the flaming bill boards portray. Thrilling sensational, exciting.
