Not exactly a native son of King county, but very, very near it, for he was but a mere strippling of a lad when first he pitched his tent in the towering timbers of the White River Valley, and here year after year, by the side of his pioneer neighbors, he has gone on hewing out a home for himself amidst the giants of the forest and the jungles of the underbrush. John Wooding was a brave young lad and just as plucky as he was brave for shouldering so grave a responsibility as he did. His splendid country home at present on the very spot where he first cast his lot in King county some thirty years ago, is a living evidence of both his bravery and his pluck. John Wooding's splendid record for five years as county commissioner of King county, his splendid record as state senator for six years at Olympia, and his splendid record as a farmer and business man of King county.

He is cheerfully recommend to the voters for all stand out as ever-lasting monuments and future recommendations of his fitness to hold any office or public trust that his fellow citizens may see fit to impose on him. Mr. Wooding's fellow Republicans have seen fit to nominate him for sheriff of King county, and if elected it is here predicted that he will give entire satisfaction in the office, for his past career is a living criterion of his future acts. In his immediate community no man stands higher than he. He has been the political ideal of that community ever since he first entered into politics. He has been the people's leader and trusted lieutenant, and despite the fact that he has been frequently criticised by an opposition party he has lost nothing as to popularity among his fellow Republicans. Mr. Wooding received the nomination for sheriff at the hands of his party's county convention last June without opposition so popular was the man, and, if he proves to be as popular at the polls as he was at the primaries, he will unquestionably be elected by an overwhelming majority. Some men are able to secure nominations by political craft, but John Wooding secured his nomination for sheriff by personal popularity, and the same is true of the previous nominations that have been given him. He is a man that any Republican can cheerfully recommend to the voters for their suffrage. W. A. CARLE. When one speaks of Mr. Carle as being decidedly popular among all classes, they can speak advisedly, for he unquestionably is the most popular candidate for legislative honors in any, of the districts in King county, and that is saying a good deal. He has practically grown up in South Seattle, married a native daughter of that community, and has lived a life that has brought to him in his more mature years an army of friends and supporters. While for the most part Mr. Carle has been a business man in Seattle, nevertheless he has so allied himself with the laboring people of that community that they are no less warm in their support of him in his efforts to represent the district in the next legislature than the business man. He is a member of the Clerk's Union in Seattle, which gives him a fellowship connection with the various other laboring organizations, and it is reasonable to suppose and predict that every organized labor man living in his district will vote for him, and with that vote he is as cer- tain of winning as he has been nominated have men in the next legislature that will laboring people, and in Mr. Carle it be- whom the most implicit confidence can if no other, will unitedly work for his elular among the Republicans of the distr have been among the leading Republicans the mind of man runneth not to the contr ocratic ticket is not particularly strong, believe that the most of the Democrats, mediate community, will vote for him in date, because they know him to be a st if elected will represent the district in wi- ponent, and certainly be a far more valu is concerned than his opponent.

Organized labor is anxious to have men in the next legislature that will look after the interests of the laboring people, and in Mr. Carle it believes it has a representative in whom the most implicit confidence can be placed, and for that reason, if no other, will unitedly work for his election. Mr. Carle is no less popular among the Republicans of the district, for he and his father-in-law have been among the leading Republicans of that community almost since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary. His opponent on the Democratic ticket is not particularly strong, and for that reason his friends believe that the most of the Democrats, and especially those in his immediate community, will vote for him in preference to their own candidate, because they know him to be a straightforward, upright man, and if elected will represent the district in which he lives better than his opponent, and certainly be a far more valuable man so far as King county is concerned than his opponent. The writer hereof has been personally acquainted with W. A. Carle ever since he has lived in King county, and during all that time he has never heard one word derogatory of him one way or the other. He seems to be one man of whom everybody can speak with kindness and favor. He, like Mr. Van De Vanter, will work late and early for the election of Mr. Preston.

It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that Mr. McConnaughey has surrounded himself with the most efficient corp of clerks ever seen in that office, and his presence from morn till night in the office has lent efficiency in every particular. The Democrats may have nominated a man for the office, but they have kept it a secret, and even that nominee, whomever he may be, hesitates admitting the fact in public.

On a previous occasion, someanter was a Among those who will represent King county in the state senate at Olympia next winter will be found the Hon. A. T. Van De Vanter, who is by no means a novice in that business. On a previous occasion, some ten years ago, Mr. Van De Vanter was a prominent member of the state senate, and made a reputation then and there that has given him prominence throughout the entire state. He has the credit of being instrumental in having more bills passed while a member of the senate than any other one member, all because of the fact that Van De Vanter never goes at anythng half-hea rted, but goes at it to succeed, and in a majority of instances he accomplishes his purpose. If any man can succeed in putting a necessary measure through the coming legislature Van De Vanter will do it, and the measures for which he is ostensibly going to the legislature to look after will be law of the state when the next legislature adjourns.

Piper, he was put forward as one of the best organizers and hardest political workers in King county, and the same can be said of Aaron T. Van De Vanter. He is an organizer of the first water and a worker of the same kind. He succeeds in primaries and in conventions when other men fall by the wayside, and that, too, when they have the decided advantage over Mr. Van De Vanter. Nothing is so demonstrative of the fact that Van is popular than when it comes to a convention, and he is able to capture the entire convention, not as some men do, with vast sums of money, for that he has not, but he does it by his personal popularity. No man in the county is more favorably spoken of than he, and whenever the farmers get an opportunity they vote for him. He is a King county man to the core, and will not leave a stone unturned to put King county in its proper political light in the affairs of the state of Washington. Mr. Van De Vanter believes that King county is deserving of a United States senator, and if elected he will go to Olympia to work late and early for the election of Harold Preston, who has been selected by the Republican party of King county for that honored position. He has no second choice in this matter. He believes that Preston can be elected, and to that end he will work night and day during the entire sixty days that he will be in Olympia as a member of the legislature. The name of no man in King county is so closely connected with the general affairs of the county as that of A. T. Van De Vanter. POLITICAL POT - PIE His political friends and enemies, and one alike, thought last Friday morning when the P.I. made its appearance on the streets that Mayor Tom Humes—old honest Tom Humes—who in the past has been more or less the bone of contention among politicians, some wanting to push him ahead, while others desired to hold him back, that he had finally reached the end of his row for they believed. lost his bearings and was unable to make his way to either his camp or to open space. "You can't loose me," was about the first thing he said after being found and the politicians of this city fully agree with the remark, because they have frequently before tried to lose him, but as yet have not succeeded in doing so, though they hope to do so in the very, very near future.

Under the present efficient county treasurer the office has been put in a businesslike shape, and it is utterly impossible for any one connected with the office to create a shortage and keep the same covered up any length of time. The office is kept as is a bank, and the books must balance every evening before the employees leave the room.

KOEPFLI The present efficient county clerk was renominated by the Republican county convention and he will be re-elected to that office. During the first year of his term the business of the county clerk's office increased over three times the last year. over one-third over the last year of his predecessor's term, and the expense of conducting the office was not increased. This is a matter that appeals directly to the interest of the voter and taxpayer. The first nine months of the second year of the term shows a continuation of the rate of increase in business transacted, keeping in pace with the growth of population, increase in commercial activity of King county and the city of Seattle. Every transaction of the county clerk's office is a matter of record, and that record is open to the inspection of any voter. Mr. Koepfli is a member of many of the fraternal associations, and his host of friends are shouting for his re-election. Not because he is a member of their organizations, but because he is a useful and trustworthy official. He has been a high official in the Woodmen of the World for the past ten has handled the moneys of the order as all that time not one thing has transpired the organization to explain.

Woodmen of the World for the past ten years, and the most of the time has handled the moneys of the order almost exclusively, and yet during all that time not one thing has transpired which he was called upon by the organization to explain. The same condition prevails in the office of county clerk, which he has held for two years. He has conducted the office not only as a credit to himself but as a credit to those who rallied about his standard to bring about his nomination and election. Those friends have not been disappointed in him. He has done them proud and they feel that it is their duty to see to it that he is re-elected for another two years. Courtesy, promptness and dispatch have been the rules of the office since Mr. Koepfli has been in charge thereof and no patron of that office, regardless of his station in life, has been neglected while doing business with the deputies and clerks therein. It is quite true that the Democratic press criticised some of Mr. Koepfli's acts, but that is perfectly natural. No Republican, however, has seen fit to criticise him, and that is sufficient evidence that he has done his duty well, and the Republicans will see to it that he is commissioned to hold the same office for another two years. GENERAL GEORGE W. TIBBITTS Honoring men by electing them to office because they were at one time gallant soldiers in the defence of their country, whether such would be office-seekers have any qualifications to fill such offices or not, is vicious in the opinion of The Seattle Republican. To place a man on the ticket because of the fact that he is a Grand Army man, when such man is without qualifications, is likewise vicious. But when the Republican party nominated General Tibbitts it nominated a man that is in every respect qualified to represent his district and county in the next legislature, his Grand Army membership to the contrary notwithstanding. General Tibbitts is one of King county's noblest sons, and is not only able and qualified to represent it in the next legislature, but he is equally qualified to represent it in the halls of congress if need be. He was not nominated because he was a Grand Army man, but because he was George Tibbitts, and because he would add strength to the ticket on which his party honored him with a place. Once before General Tibbitts honors, and was defeated, but it was running rampant, and not only was he or lican nominee in the county was similarly greatly changed since that time, and no cause men to lose their minds, their re did in 1896, and in representing his dis will work from beginning to end, if nece Preston as United States senator.

Once before General Tibbitts was a candidate for legislative honors, and was defeated, but it was in 1896, when free silver was running rampant, and not only was he defeated, but every other Republican nominee in the county was similarly treated. Things, however, have greatly changed since that time, and no longer does the free silver craze cause men to lose their minds, their reason and their judgment, as it did in 1896, and in representing his district in the next legislature he will work from beginning to end, if necessary, for the election of Harold Preston as United States senator. He is closely allied with the workingmen, with the mining men, with the farmers in his district, and like his colleague, is most decidedly popular. There is no man on the Republican ticket that this paper can more cheerfully recommend to the voters of the district in which he lives than Gen. Tibbitts, and it can do so because it knows that he has ever proven to be the poor man's friend the laboring man's friend, and, more vulgarly speaking, the friend of the under dog in the fight. We especially recommend him to the laboring voters of the district, and feel safe in saying to that vote that it will find in Gen. Tibbitts no less a friend than in his colleague, Mr. Carle, and inasmuch as the next legislature will be overwhelmingly Republican, it is suggested to the voters that they send as many Republicans favorable to their cause to the legislature as is possible, and it would do well to start out with General Tibbitts and W. A. Carle. Business men in King county can be assured that Gen. Tibbitts will look to their interest if elected, and they too should rally to his support.

WALLACE Forty-seventh Representative District "TROBEN W. JONES, WILLIAM H. LEWIS." A home on Capital Hill "looks good to me." Morgan is a fool for meddling into politics. A presidential bee is humming about Mark Hanna's bonnet and it sounds good to him. Murder in Seattle is of an almost daily occurrence. Blessings on the man who first the wide open policy did invent. The question of Coler is going to be the burning issue in the present New York campaign. If Mr. Gordon expects to get on the Republican ticket for justice of the peace by rushing the Cann he'll have to hurry. Bryan says that Tom Johnston, the would-be Democratic nominee for the presidency, "has brains." Perhaps that's the living truth, but how in heaven's name Bryan found it out is what puzzles us. Fall and winter business have already opened in Seattle and opened with a rush at that. Seattle is always on the jump and even business enterprises have to get a hump on themselves to keep up with the procession. That young Seattle student, Sjolestr*n who killed himself because he was indebted to a newspaper, seems to have been the only man on earth who had any sympathy for the newspaper man's bill. What a pity there are not others. Joe Blethen of the Seattle Times is said to be "a most charming short story writer." How much truth there is in the charge is problematical, but there is no denying the fact that Joe is a monstrous big story teller, especially when he wants the Times to be a strong seller on the streets. Farmer Funston's soldier son is out roasting the canteen law. Young Funston seems to see everybody's weakness but his own. What he should do is to roast the treacherous methods deployed by Funston in the capture of Aguinaldo, which was a disgrace to civilized warfare. If the Democratic party of this state was able to muster up sufficient opposition to the Republican nominees to cause any friction the campaign would at once begin to warm up, but it looks as though it is going to be a rather frosty season for the political grafters. When you see it in The Seattle Republican it is next to official. Files of The Republican are kept by many of the leading politicians of this county and state, which is proof sufficient that it is accurate, trustworthy and reliable in its statements and a most beneficial guide and manual for politicians and public men. We are glad to observe that the Trade Register of this city is reading Detective Wappenstein's titles clear, Wappenstein is a disgrace to any civilized Christian community and the municipal administration either here or elsewhere that will tolerate him is not a whit better than Wappenstein is accused of being. --- Free Medicine Crow, the Indian that married Miss Cora Belle Fellows, a teacher in the Crow Creek Agency, may be "a dirty, lousy, savage, brutal denizen of the forest," but even at that he has none the better of the editor of the Washington Standard. If they are not two of a kind from a civilization standpoint, then they are dangerously near it. Political adversities must have been ing thick and to Mayor Humes, which so beclouded his thinking faculties that he was unable to find his way to his camp when he wandered not over half a mile therefrom. Never mind, old man, the bugger man is going to catch you pretty soon. Bremerton's navy yard is without a man-of-war at present. How strange that the government officials should so far overlook the country's common good as to allow the entire squadron to leave the yard at a time when the Democratic party is expected to go on the warp without a minute's warning. "When Editors Meet Eat and Drink," is a Walla Walla Union headline, with nothing to indicate what the result would be when they do these things. On former occasions when they have done such they have, generally raised Hades, and we suspect that they did the same thing over in Walla Walla the other day. Emil Zola's death is another chapter indirectly in the great Dreyfus case. In that great plot the hand of Zola was seen almost as frequently, if not more, than Capt. Dreyfus himself. As a novelist he probably stood head of the list at the time of his unexpected death, and he will be sorely missed by the literary world. "Are you registered?" is the oft-asked question at present and especially in the newspapers. Such is asked because you do not seem to have enough interest in your country's good to go and register without being told about it a hundred and one times. If you want to vote, go and register without further being admonished to do so. Whether spurious editors Will Steel a presidency or not is more than we are prepared to say at this writing, but A Steel is always mixed up in the deliberations of the Washington editors, and, therefor we are forced to conclude that the gang would steal even a presidency if they only got the freedom of an opportunity extended to them. An Oregon paper is inclined to believe that there is danger of Senator Turner breaking into the United States senate again owing to the factional differences in the Republican party. Do not disturb yourself, neighbor. Washington is safely Republican and is going to remain such, and Turner will be given a long, long rest from political work and worry when the next legislature meets. Is Col. Blethen peddling out the presidency of the state university to the highest bidder, or is he playing the role of "it" so far as the regents are concerned and handing out that choice plum to whomever suits him best? The colonel might at least make a pretense of consulting the other members of the board even if he did not mean to give their opinions a passing consideration in the employing of a president. That, however, is the history of Col. Blethen. He's always "it" in everything with which he is connected or he won't play. In as much as there is no show of any Democrat being elected to the presidency of this country, at least within any time in the near future, and, in as much as William Jennings Bryan seems to extract exquisite pleasure out of running for the presidency, we see no great objections to him being given a third nomination if he so desires. 'Tis a splendid advertising medium for him personally and otherwise and why not lend a helping hand when it can do you no harm. It may be utterly impossible for the editor of the Pomeroy Independent to think, but, if he could, it would not take him long to discover the fact that those Republicans in the South that are refusing to accept Negroes in their convention deliberation are nothing more or less than mongrel Democrats turned Republican for the sake of office, and such hydra-headed monsters are no better, so far as the Negro is concerned, than Ben Tillman, Ethel Barksale, or any other of the murderous renegades of the South. Yea, they are even worse, because they have deserted their own party for the sofa sake of political pelf, and anyone guilty of such is fit only for treason, strategem and spoils and no one should trust them.

Burleigh had filed a petition in the United States district court in New York to go through bankruptcy. Mr. Burleigh's liabilities amount to $206,251, while his assets to cover that vast inedentness only amount to $24,924. The heaviest creditor of Mr. Burleigh was O. C. Bergdolf of Pittsburgh, who advanced him $45,000 to construct steamers for the Yukon River in Alaska. He also owes Moran Bros. of Seattle $5,000. There are numerous other lesser debts for which there is nothing in Mr. Burleigh's assets to liquidate, and, feeling that the load was more than he could longer lug, he has appealed to the courts to release him from the same that he might start out afresh and perhaps again reach the top of the ladder where he once stood and viewed the struggling masses below. . . . Speaking about Andrew F. Burleigh brings many pleasant as well as unpleasant memories to many persons in Seattle and King county and even in the state of Washington. Some twelve years ago Mr. Burleigh came to Seattle and quickly worked his way into the good graces of the Republican boss of this county at that time—Col. Haines—by a brilliant speech and some excellent campaigning. Immediately after the campaign had closed Mr. Haines took Mr. Burleigh into his office and thus did a most brilliant legal and political career begin. His rise from that moment was rapid, and at the death of Col. Haines he became the attorney for the Oregon Improvement Company and other corporations, and, of course, naturally became the center of attraction in political and financial circles and to some extent in social circles. The ambitions politician who failed to get Andrew Burleigh's name attached to his list of petitioners never succeeded in getting a nomination. He was a shrewd, sagacious politician and never left a stone unturned in his endeavors to build up a political machine in this county and state. During the financial crisis when all of the railroads in the country were more or less trouble and receivers were as numerous as railroads Mr. Burleigh was appointed receiver for the Northern Pacific—that part of the Northern Pacific railroad extending from Montana to the Coast. Apparently he was in the zenith of his career and he had it in his power to make governors and United States senators at will, but an unfortunate turn came his way and as soon as the road went out of the hands of a receiver Mr. Burleigh seems to have hit the bottom like a forty-ton gun, and thence he drifted from bad to worse until he finally left the state and went to New York and there took up the practice of law again. A Seattle friend saw ham some months ago and he said he was not satisfied with New York and longed to come back to Seattle again, which he hoped to do in the very near future. Now that he is taking a course in bankruptcy it is barely possible that he will soon be in the West again and try to regain his fallen fortunes in the town where he lost it. --- Here's a clipping from the Trade Register of this city, which paper enjoys the distinction of being the only trade paper published in this city and the distinction of being the most widely circulated paper of its kind published in the state as well as the most reliable for the information it gives. The editor of the Register is almost considered official as to Seattle's statistical facts and therefore what he says in this connection about Detective Wapperstein is all the more interesting: . . . It will be remembered that when Wapperstein run the police affairs of Seattle just before Chief Meredith was killed by Considine, this city revealed in a carnival of crime. The situation ended in the retirement of Wapperstein. He was reinstated, whitewashed by the Times, and it is singularly coincident that crime is again rapidly on the increase in Seattle. If Wappenstein is only a coincidence, it appears necessary for the citizens to demand that the criminals be cleared out together with those who are sheltering them and giving them license to rob and kill. The present situation requires thorough investigation and correction. It will be too long to wait for another municipal election. The people should be too incensed at the conduct of affairs. A newspaper man had a bill against County Auditor Lamping, which had been hanging fire for many weary weeks with the prospects of getting it paid still distantly faint, as Lamping does not seem to let such little things as unpaid bills worry him very much. Hunger was pressing the Faber pusher on all sides and he was almost driven to desperation when he succeeded, after many futile attempts, to catch him in the office supposed to be occupied by the county auditor, and, smiling at "his highness" with that bland, childlike smile so characteristic of the hungry man, who thinks he has a sight on a "square," he sneaked up to him and presented his bill. But the hungry editor received the usual "Call again," which almost broke his heart. The disappointed man, hoping to get at least a part of his dough, made the following proposal to his highness. "Now, Mr. Lamping, if you will pay this bill today I will throw off half of it." "Well, that's quite generous of you, Mr. Editor." quickly came in response, "but you can be no more generous than I, and, if you agree to throw off your half, I will throw off my half and we'll call it even." Before the astonished editor could get his breath the gallant captain had donned his military headgear and strutted out of the room like a Persian prince for the ball game, patting himself on the back for his "J. Gould-like" financiering. --- Jack Williams, who seems to have that tired feeling, on account of still having to carry Harry Tracy's burden, went hobbling down Seventh avenue the other day and stopped for a minute to chat with the Tattler. "Yes, I am aive and able to be out after a fashion, but still have a gentle reminder that Harry Tracy was after me. I am not in politics and I am not talking to influence anyone to vote for any candidate for this or that office, but the man who thinks Ed Cudiehe's office showed the white feather in the Tracy hunt in a single particular is talking through his hat. Mortal man could not have done more to capture a desperate criminal than Cudiehe and his deputies. I speak from lcm personal experience and I speak truthfully when I say Ed Cudiehe is as brave a man as ever chased a criminal in this or any other man's town or country and he demonstrated in the Tracy hunt." "No, I am not asking anything from King county for being malmed perhaps for life. I was doing my duty as an officer and I have no complaints to make or kicks to register. . . . Here's a good story that is being told on the streets at Mayor Hume's expense. While lost in the woods the other day, when night came on he crawled into a hollow tree and there slept all night. The rain came down in torrents during the night and the old log did quite a bit of swelling on account of the past dry spell and swelled so much that the mayor found himself in a veritable deattrap, for squeeze and push as hard as he would or could he could not free himself from his prison. He finally gave himself up to die, and began, of course, to go over his entire life and think of all the mean as well as good things he had ever done (he found the latter to be few and far apart) until he finally came down to the time when he was elected mayor of Seattle and then he thought of the men who were responsible for his election and then it came to him how shabbi he had treated them and in fact everybody else that had helped him from time to time to "git offis" and he felt so mean and little on account of his unfaithfulness that he slipped out of the hole without touching either side and almost without exertion. It was a rather striking coincidence that Big Bill Morris should be the first to find him sitting on his prison log in a most repentent mood, for Big Bill was the man of all others most responsible for his election as mayor and Morris was thrown down the hardest of all by Mayor Humes. . . . Mr. Thomas J. Howard, a King county pioneer, who is now in his 86th year, was married to Mrs. R. B. Holliday at the parsonage of the A. M. E, Church last. Wednesday. Mrs. Holliday has seen but forty summers. . . . Paul Underwood, the Ballard child murderer, has been found guilty of murder in the second degree. From ten to twenty years in the penitentiary is the punishment for the crime. . . . Charles Austin was seriously if not dangerously cut with a nasty knife by Robert Miller in the alley to the rear of the P-I. block last Wednesday. Both parties are Negroes and the trouble arose over joshing each other. Miller is at large, but it is truly hoped that he will soon be detected and sent to prison for at least ten years.

IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for the County of Kingston SUMMONS FOR PUBLICATION er light and much work is needed along this line in order to get the voters registered. It always happens that the Republican voters are more luke warm than the opposition owing to their over confidence of winning hence it requires more work on the part of Republicans to register their votes than it does for the Democrats . . . While Chairman Knickerbocker has not completed the list of speakers for the county campaign, nor can he speak with any definiteness, yet he has every reason to believe that among the many speakers who will be sent out in the county campaign will be found Herman W. Craven, the well-known lawyer and campaigner; Milo A. Root, who has campaigned more in this state than perhaps any other one man; James A. Kerr, who proved himself to be one of the best speakers in the campaign of 1896 when free silver was running rampant; Samuel H. Piles, whose ability as a campaign speaker stands higher than most any other man in the county; John H. Powell, who can make the cleanest, clearest and most logical speech of any man in King county; John P. Hartman, who is always found in the lead and who on many previous occasions has proved his prowess as a campaigner; Judge R. A. Ballenger, who won his laurels as a campaigner in Jefferson county; Hon. John B. Allen, who at one time represented this state in the U. S. senate; Will H. Morris, who is known in every nook and corner of this county as a successful political worker; Hon. Frank P. Lewis, who for four years represented this county in the state senate, and many others equally prominent in the affairs of the county. Mr. Knickerbocker intends to cover every precinct in the county and will send out a sufficient number of speakers to do the work between the 13th of October and the election day. . . . The Republican county central committee of Snohomish county has organized with W. P. Bell as chairman and is preparing for and in fact has already begun a most vigorous campaign. Snohomish county is Republican pretty nearly all of the time and this time the Republicans propose to make it so decidedly Republican that Democrats in the future will hardly want to nominate candidates for the various offices. ... The Republicans of Clallam county have organized their campaign by electing Mr. Dyke as chairman of the central committee and N. M. Hawkins secretary. Clallam, like Snohomish, is for the most part Republican though occasionally a Democrat slips into office, but Chairman Dyke declares this year that not a single Democratic nominee shall come within a mile of being elected. * * * From a Democratic paper it is learned that P. C. Sullivan has returned from Nome and is again in Tacoma among his friends. It will be remembered that Mr. Sullivan was once the Republican nominee for governor of this state and received the most signal defeat of any man ever nominated for a state office. While, of course, he had the free silver craze to confront in his 1896 campaign, nevertheless, he did not run along with his ticket, so unpopular was the man not only in eastern Washington, but even in western Washington. During the campaign an opposition paper in Tacoma wagered $500 that no one in Tacoma could cite a single instance where Mr. Sullivan had been a guest at the home of any of the leading citizens of that town, and neither they nor Mr. Sullivan ever called the bet, which proved to be the feather that broke the camel's back, and Republicans all over the state at once deserted the nominee of the party, who could not give the lie to such a statement. --- Speaking about P. C. sullivan, the Tacoma nominee for governor in 1896 reminds the Pie-maker that Seattle also had a gubernatorial nominee and strange to say he was defeated while not so bad as was Mr. Sullivan, nevertheless he was defeated, and a defeat is a defeat without regard to its degrees. Both of the leading cities of the state have had their gubernatorial disappointments at the polls and it begins to look rather prophetical that neither of the two cities is to have a governor of the state, lest such governor be tempted to injure the rival city in the interest of the one from whence he hails. . . . A Democratic paper says Governor McBride is unfortunate in the selection of his lieutenants in Skagit county, the home of the governor. It claims that while the governor is carrying on his fight against the railroads his lieutenants in Skagit county are carefully looking after the railroads' interests. If such be true then there is no doubt of the fact that the governor is going to be placed in a most compromising position before the next legislature adjourns. . . . Here is a quotation from Hon. J. H. Schively, who left Tacoma a few days ago for Ohio to help the Republicans win their fight over there. which will be of interest to many persons that are dabbling into politics. It is a frank, fair statement of a politician and politicians would do well to read it and carefully consider the same: . . . "I think that a man who leaves a business or profession of any value, to go into politics makes a serious mistake. When I resigned in Seattle to accept the position I did in the republican party, I had friends on every hand, and could get employment anywhere. Now, if I should ask a business man in Seattle for a job he would think I was joshing, or if he took the matter in earnest, he would say I was seeking the work merely for gaining some political end. I have gotten into this work and must try to get higher. My mission to Ohio is to make political speeches. The profession is like all others, for a man can work up to a prominent and paying position. It is not dishonorable nor particularly disagreeable, but it is a business or profession all to itself. A man necessarily forms some habits he cannot shake, and gets into a rut of thinking where he must continue a politician. The work in Ohio, I think will suit me." . . . There is no longer any doubt about the candidacy of Levi Ankney of Walla Walla for the United States senatorship from this state, for Mr. Ankey's paper, the Walla Walla Union makes bold the following announcement concerning his candidacy. --- "Levi Ankeny, of Walla Walla, is a candidate for the United States senate. He is a Republican. He always has been a Republican. He has always been a consistent party worker. He has been a resident and citizen of Walla Walla for over a quarter of a century. No man can say anything against his honesty, integrity or his character. He has made a success of his business career, and he comes before the people of the state as a candidate for a high office. . . . Being a candidate and having a certain amount of opposition it is anticapped Mr. Ankeny will come in for his share of abuse, vilification and misrepresentation. Everything possible will be done by his opponents of a certain class to place his name in an unfavorable light before the people of the state. That is one of the penalties of being a candidate for office Mr. Ankeny has been subjected to a great deal of this in the past. He is made a target at the present, and it will continue into the future. . . . But Mr. Ankeny is not in the least afraid of his past record. He has no fears of it for the future. He takes graffification, no doubt, in the assumption that the people of Walla Walla county and of eastern Washington, who know him best recognize in him an honest, conscientious man and one thoroughly posted on the actual conditions of the people of the state and affairs in general. The best evidence of a man's character can be given by his neighbors, his fellow townsmen and the men with whom he has business transactions. . . . The members of Mr. Ankeny's party in Walla Walla county in their last county convention unanimously indorsed his candidacy for the United States senate and pledged him the support of their legislative candidates. It rests with the people of Walla Walla county now to add their endorsement and their ratification of the acts of that convention by electing these three Republican candidates for the house of representatives. . . . By casting a ballot for A. F. Kees, E. M. Denton and J. B. Wilson, the Republican candidates, the voter of Walla Walla county expresses his approval of Mr. Ankeny's candidacy and the hope of the major portion of the people of Walla Walla county that he will be elected. It means much to Mr. Ankeny. It means much to Walla Walla. Be loyal to your own candidate and to your own home. . . . A Democratic paper makes bold the assertion that, "Turner is the logical senatorial candidate." All of which may be quite true, but the Ple-maker is prepared to say that though he may be the logacil candidate he is by no means the winning candidate, his logicalness to the contrary notwithstanding. It matters not how logical a candidate may be if he is not the winning candidate he is weighed in a balance and found wanting and this will be Senator Turner's predication when the polls close the 4th of next November. . . . "There is much quite work being done amongst the Populists." So says the Patriarch. How different from the way it was formerly done, and if such a change has come over the Populists, let the leper and the Ethiopian, whose spots could not be changed nor whose color could not be bleached, take consolation, for even these impossibilities, which have been branded by the Bible as such, may be yet brought about just as the political work of the Populists is being done in a quiet way and not on the street corners and house-tops, as has been the custom of that party ever since it first sprang into existence. THE NEGRO AND REPUBLICANISM (San Francisco Outlook.) There was a time when nearly every colored man that had a vote could be counted upon to cast the same for the Republican party. But he has been fooled so many times and got such litle compensation for his loyalty that this is all changed and an effort is now required to keep him in line, and it is surprising to note the number who are so indifferent as not to vote and the argument and persuasion that are necessary to make them take an interest. The recent action of the Alabama Republicans in refusing to allow any colored delegates to be seated in the convention—the flat having gone forth that the party must be kept a white man's party—has had a dampening influence. And the fact that the same has the endorsement of President Roosevelt, and is the policy of the administration, makes the blow one of the hardest to combat by those who would remain true to the Republican party. This is the situation that stares the colored voter in the face. It is no theory, and there are many who believe they can accomplish more by leaving politics alone. We may be mistaken, but we believe that this fact will be demonstrated most conclusively in the present state election, unless the colored citizen is given good and strong recognition, and is made to feel that he has an influence among his own people and that the same must count for something. Colored men must be employed to tour the state, and given a chance to do missionary work, which no one can do as effectively. The press has an influence, and it is hardly fair to expect it to always wield the same for Republican success and never receive any consideration from either the state central committee or the county central committee. While the daily papers are strong and influential, a Negro paper that has the confidence of its readers is far more potential for securing results. There is a bond of sympathy between the editor and his patrons and they understand each other better. There are many candidates and political speakers who, when addressing a colored audience, dwell upon Lincoln and the fact that "we freed you," and if they only knew it they are just driving away votes by that kind of talk. The Negro is supersensitive, but he feels that he is an American citizen, and that he paid for the privilege of being the same in sweat and blood, and he does not like to be called "boy," a mistake of many speakers. No, the Negro is tired of being fed on dead issues, and as he is getting into the light the important questions of a campaign appeal to him the same as to any other class of citizens. When they are for his伯伯menter he will vote for the party that champions them, and vice versa. This should be thoroughly understood, and so should the false position of some of the would-be leaders who claim to control the Negro vote and assume to deliver the same for a few dollars. This is going to be a hotly contested campaign, and we are writing seriously, and we may have given utterance to a thought that will bear noting. The Republican party of this state can take the words of the brothel down in California as a lecture to themselves for a similar state of affairs exists throughout this state so far as the Republicans are concerned and one of these days there is going to be a grand reckoning. PERSONAL. Mr. James E. Shepperson of Roslyn is visiting in the city. Mr. I. F. Norris is floorwalker at the Bon Marche, so reports Mr. Norris. Rev. S. F. Freeman and the trustees of his church will soon have their church extension completed. Rev. George A. Bailey, presiding elder of this A. M. E. diocese, went to Roslyn last Saturday to look after the work at that point. If you have a friend in the East that wants to learn about this country have The Seattle Republican sent to his or her address. Colored men are continuing to buy homes in Seattle. Let real estate men take notice, and tell them what they have for sale in The Seattle Republican. The increase of colored children in the various schools of the city is quite noticeable this year. A few colored children can be found in every school in the city, which is right and proper. If you have a friend visiting you from out of the city or if you know anything happening in the city of general interest, The Republican will be glad to publish the same if you will make it known to the office. The carelessness of a motorman on the Madison street line came very near causing Mrs. A. Heath being dangerously injured last Tuesday. If she does not enter suit against the company for the insult as well as the injury she is no friend to herself. Mr. and Mrs. S. Edwards left for their home in Kansas City last Saturday after having spent a week in this city visiting with friends. Among those formerly acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Edwards in Kansas City were Mr. and Mrs. Booker. It is utterly impossible to run a newspaper unless those to whom it is sent pay for the same. If, therefore, you are indebted to The Seattle Republican it will be deemed a favor if you will come up to the office and pay the same. The Negro who is so party blind as to vote for a nominee on a Republican ticket who publicly declares that he will never tolerate a Negro in any office with which he is connected would vote for re-enslaving himself. Such a nominee is found in George B. Lamping, candidate for county auditor. You certainly will not vote for him? The Norris combination lunch counter and grocery store near the Columbia school is doing a splendid business, which demonstrates the fact beyond a question of doubt that a black man can be as successful in Seattle as any other color of a man. It is up to you whether you will do business for yourself or be a striker for some one else to do business. Smith Kelley, a well-known Afro-American mining prospector, is the first man of his nationality to sit on a jury in King county under the new jury law. He has been on the regular panel in Judge Griffins' court for the past month, his term expiring October 1. Organized labor is responsible for William Jackson, the only colored man employed about the Fredrick & Nelson furniture establishment, to quit work. No store in Seattle is patronized more by colored folk than this and yet the manager will not hesitate in telling you he is not bidding for Negro trade. Why trade with a bitter enemy of your race? A public reception was tendered Rev. S. S. Freeman at the A. M. E. church last Wednesday evening. It was informal and yet many were out and bade the new pastor a God-speed in his new field of labor. Short addresses were made by the leading officials of the church, which were feeling responded to by the pastor. Rev. Freeman gives evidence of accomplishing much good while here. Colored men, if you do not register and register soon you will not be able to vote in November. If you have been in this state for one year, in this county for thirty days and in the precinct in which you now reside for ten days you are qualified to register. You must register at the city hall or you can not vote. It is different in a large city from a country town and you should take notice at once. Do not put it off another day but go to the city hall and register. This means you! SPOKANE PERSONALS Mr. W. Campoell of St. Louis, Mo., is in the city for a few days. Mr. John H. Stafford has returned from a business trip around the surrounding country. Mr. Britton, a popular railroad man, has returned from a five weeks' business trip in the East. Mr. J. P. Bail, Sr., of Seattle has been on the sick list for the last few days, but is all right again. Mr. Charley Lucas and Mr. A. D. Griffin of Portland were renewing old acquaintances in our city last week. Mr. John C. Payne has returned from a five weeks' visit to his home in California and reports an enjoyable trip. Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Ryan entertained Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Mash, Miss Minnie Brown and Master Walter Parker at dinner Sunday. Mr. William Hopkins has a butcher shop on Riverside avenue. He employs two or three men and has an excellent run of business. Mr. Jesse R. Price has a blacksmith shop on Second avenue and Washington street. He has been established for a few years and is doing an excellent business. Mr. Charles S. Barrow is a printer and has his shop on Bernard street. This gentleman competes with the largest shops in the city and has all he can attend to. Mrs. C. A. Douglas is a wax artist and has the patronage of the largest dry goods houses in our city, remodeling and making wax figures for their show windows. Mrs. Douglas is a new comer here, but her work is a credit to her. Mr. Charles S. Ryan and Mr. A. B. Coleman have teams on the street and find they have all the work they can handle. Besides these there are several barber shops conducted by colored men, the largest of which is conducted by Messrs. Turner and Parker on Howard street.

Even her favorite songs she could not play or sing to-night. Time and again she pressed her hands to her aching head to stop the throbbing, for it seemed that her head would burst and yet she was not really sure that it was aching at all. Perhaps it was in the regions of the heart where her trouble lay, for she suddenly walked to the middle of the room, clasped both hands over her heart and, with her eyes buried in the beautiful Oriental rug upon which she stood, was motionless save the deep rise and fall of her shapely bosom. There was not a sound in the room, its only occupant so strangely wrapped in silence would not appear to be living did not the convulsive rise and fall of her bosom portrait that she was not only living, but suffering extremely. Mrs. Crosswait had been married only six months; the first three she had been a very happy woman. Her husband gave her his love and his time, that is, all of the time he could possibly spare from his business, but at the end of three months he began to gradually change till the time he spent at home was only for meals and sleeping. Even these hours were hurried and as soon as he ate dinner at six o'clock he rushed to the club or to see a man or some place. It was always after eleven when he returned. His good night kiss was never lacking, however. His careful injunctions for his better half to sleep and take good care of her health when he was so imprudent with the half he represented seemed almost a mockery. He never seemed to think how lonely she was at home without him. How it was only a short time since she could choose from several invitations where and how she would spend the evenings. Never a thought seemed to reach him of the happy home circle he had broken when he took her away to reign queen of his own home. It was enough to make her heart ache. She was lonely and tonight she felt it; she was neglected and tonight she realized it. For quite a while Mrs. Crosswaite stood as we have pictured her, when her face suddenly lighted as if a happy thought had entered her mind. "I'll do it," she exclaimed aoud, and, walking hurriedly to the medicine chest she selected a small phial of brandy, which she put in her pocket, and left the house without hat or wraps. She went directly to her next door neighbor's and to her friendly greeting, replied: "Mr. Crosswaite is out this evening, so I thought I would come over and spend the time with you till he returned." "I am glad you came," said her neighbor. "My husband is out of the city till tomorrow noon and I am nervous and cannot sleep any way." It was a warm evening in midsummer and the two ladies sat on the moon-lit porch and talked as only two ladies who are near and dear neighbors can talk. Nine, ten, eleven, and Mr. Crosswaite had not returned. Mrs. Crosswaite hated to keep her neighbor up so long, but she had an object in view and somebody's time had to be sacrificed in order that her pians did not miscarry. At last she heard his footsteps. How often lately had she lain awake and listened for those footsteps, listened till she knew them even when they were among many others. Mrs. Crosswaite passed the house quite near where his wife sat, reached his own door, and, using his latch-key, entered; and while he climbed the stairs leading to his wife's room and sought her bedside where two plump arms were always impulsively thrown around his neck and a dear rosehound of a mouth tondy kissed him, Mrs. Crosswaite was bidding her friend good night. She started for home, but when she reached her own gate she paused in the shadow of its great post and, quickly transformed herself, catching up the hem of her dress skirt, she fairly riddled it up one side. From her hair she removed the pins and running her fingers through it disheveled it horribly. Then she took from her pocket the phial of brandy and saturated the bosom of her dress with it. A croquet mallet lay on the porch, armed with this Mrs. Crosswaite attacked the front door of her home in such a vigorous manner as to bring her husband down the steps without loss of time. She heard him coming and pounded harder. When Mr. Crosswaite hastily jerked open the door, demanding the reason of the attack, a woman who was leaning against it fell prostrate in the hall, even at his very feet. A moment he gazed at her in bewilderment, then he recognized the dress, torn as it was—the hair, disheveled as it was, yes, he recognized her. "My God," he gasped, "my wife." In an instant he was by her side raising her head. Just then the strong odor of brandy reached him. "Not drinking," he cried, and the perspiration burst out on his face, not unlike large beads. "Tell me, Minnie," he cried, "tell me where have you been." For answer Mrs. Crosswaite feebly raised her head from his arm, gazed at him blankly and then burst into a seemingly uncontrollable fit of laughter. Mr. Crosswaite was driven to desperation. He seized the relaxed form of his wife in his arms bodily and made a grand rush for the stairs. Evidently the bedroom above was his destination. Surprise akin to overwhelming astonishment was felt by Mrs. Crosswaite, for Mr. Crosswaite was below the average man in stature, while she was quite a plump little woman. In short, Mr. Crosswaite had asked her several times lately to take a chair as her weight tired him very much, actually made his legs ache. However, by some means he got her to her bed and began the awkward process of disrobing her for the night. The only sounds that now disturbed the stillness were those of sobs and laughter, for Mr. Crosswaite had begun sobbing aloud, while his wife was surprising herself in her ability to utter such repeated peals of laughter. Through the remaining hours of the night Mr. Crosswaite slept but little, but Mrs. Crosswaite slept and slept. He left her quietly sleeping the next morning. When he returned at noon he found her quietly sleeping, when he returned for dinner she was not only up but most becomingly dressed. He did not remember when she had ever looked so charming to him before. When dinner was over he startled her by asking: "Would you like to go to the opera to-night, my dear?" Of course she would; she just loved the opera. Rides, drives, visits, books, songs and games in their own home in their dear, old-fashioned way as they used to do before they were married followed. Just evening after evening of pleasure for them both. Finally, some might say womanlike, Mrs. Crosswaite owned to the part she played, but she said: "I thought you ought to spend your time in your own home and you now have for your wife a very happy woman." AMUSEMENTS Commencing Sunday evening, October 5, the Belasco-George juvenile troop will appear at the Seattle theatre for a return engagement of four nights. There will be the usual Wednesday matinee. Manager Howe made this engagement through the solicitation of many ladies and children who did not have the opportunity to witness the performance during their initial appearance in this city, owing to the Elks' carnival and kindred attractions. The best border drama, without any exception, that has been seen in this city is "Nevada," that is now being played at the Third Avenue theatre. The attraction at the Third Avenue theatre next week, commencing Sunday with a matinee, will be "The Convict's Daughter," a melodrama that has achieved marvelous success during the past two seasons. The play contains all of the elements of pathos comedy and realism necessary to make up a stirring and interesting play. SOUSA'S BAND "The Kipling of Music" is the way one English paper described John Philip Sousa, a comparison that is true and a compliment to both men. Like Kipling, Sousa is nothing if not strong and virile; like him, too, Sousa has a story to tell—an original, stirring story, and quickens the pulse and rouses the most sluggish nature into mental activity. The military element is dominant in the works of both men, and Sousa has injected the American military spirit into his works with no --- vicious, tired, in fact she did not know tried to read, tried to sew, only to given her favorite songs she could not she pressed her hands to her aching need that her head would burst and yet teaching at all.

The composer voices his tribute in crisp, crystallized melody and swinging harmony—the author is in vigorous, sonorous verso and powerful and pungent prose. Sousa, by the way, will shortly bring his famous band here for popular concerts at the Grand next Thursday afternoon and evening. "THE LIBERTY BELLES." Harry B. Smith's new musical comedy "The Liberty Belles," which will be presented by a company of well known artists under the management of Frank Hennessy, will open at the Grand next Friday night. The principals of the company are Nevada Hefron, Gertrude Millington, Maybelle Adams, Percy Leach, Harry Stuart, Rita Knight, Marie Twohey, Harry C. Lyons, Ethel Dean and others. Mr. Smith's new comedy is entirely humorous, and is presented in a prologue and two acts. The scenes represent a dormitory in a young ladies' seminary, the cooking school of "The Liberty Belles," and a hotel in an orange grove in Florida. "KING DODO." One of the largest musical organizations ever sent on the road is the "King Dodo" company, which Mr. Henry W. Savage has sent direct from its successful two months' run at Daly's theatre, New York, and which comes to the Grand next Sunday for four nights and a Wednesday matinee. "King Dodo's" record as a comic opera success has been one unbroken line --- of successes, the same being not so phenomenal since the work has been produced in an elaborate manner and has proven to be an up-to-date revival of all that was good in comic opera. It was written and composed by Frank Pixley and Gustav Luders and ran for twenty weeks in Chicago. Raymond Hitchcock, Cheridah Simpson, Flora Zabelle, Greta Risley, Margaret McKinney, Arthur Wooley, Wm. Corliss, Arthur Deagon and Albert Juhre with a large chorus of pretty girls are among the features of the offering. THE LADY OF THE NIGHT RITI RISLEY IN KING DODO SPECIAL RATES EAST.
