In dealing with the general public he has made it a rule of his life to see all men and all nationalities with whom he comes in contact one and alike, or, using the vulgar venacular of the town, "they all look alike to him." Without further elaboration on this nomination made by the Republican convention, it is safe to predict that his overwhelming election next November will demonstrate to both him and his friends that he is decidedly popular and is much admired by the voters of King county. This paper takes pleasure in endorsing him not only for the position he now seeks, but for any other position he may seek at the hands of the voters in the future. name of Mr. Tucker, who was no publician takes pleasure in saying he.

The Democrat who is inclined to believe that Mr. Tucker will be defeated for the position of state senator reasons without his host, for Mr. Tucker has been there before and was not found wanting when the votes had been counted. It might not be out of place at this time to quote from the record the vote given to Mr. Tucker two years ago when he was a candidate for the lower house. In order that our readers may see exactly how the entire district stood for the Republican ticket the vote in detail of both the three Democratic as well as the three Republican nominees for the legislature in that district is herewith given: 9th ward, 1st precinct ..... 42 42 42 48 46 46 9th ward, 2nd precinct ..... 57 52 51 44 39 34 9th ward, 3rd precinct ..... 110 96 97 108 91 92 9th ward, 4th precinct ..... 118 97 98 89 69 59 9th ward, 5th precinct ..... 128 111 105 109 96 98 9th ward, 6th precinct ..... 108 97 88 106 94 75 Avondale ..... 212 19 18 14 14 15 Ballard, 1st precinct ..... 226 228 229 246 253 244 Ballard, 2nd precinct ..... 226 228 229 246 253 244 Bellevue ..... 38 53 37 33 21 29 Houghton ..... 29 30 29 18 15 16 Juanita ..... 32 23 27 15 17 14 Kirkland ..... 69 70 68 19 20 19 Monohon ..... 35 34 40 21 22 22 Oaklake ..... 12 14 12 23 20 19 Richmond ..... 27 27 31 20 23 23 Richmond ..... 16 16 16 15 15 Bothell ..... 62 58 61 41 39 41 Union ..... 7 7 7 12 11 11 Woodinville ..... 24 21 24 32 33 32 Yesler ..... 24 25 25 20 22 21 It will be seen from the above figures that the Thirty-second senatorial district, which elects one senator and two members of the lower house, will be overwhelmingly Republican in spite of the fact that the Democrats have declared the district will be carried by the nominees of their party. Mr. Tucker made an ideal member of the lower house two years ago, and he will be an ideal senator, guarding carefully at all times the interest of King county, both politically and otherwise, and will seek to have a United States senator elected from King county in the person of Hon. Harold Preston. No member of the legislature who will go from King county will be more enthusiastic in the election of a senator from King county than Mr. Tucker, and we especially commend him to the voters of that district, without regard to past political affiliations, requesting that they vote for him as a unit. The Republican wishes to especially call its readers' attention to Mr. Tucker's legislative record in favor of the state university, located in his district. From the very time he began his legislative career he started out to secure for the state university as large appropriations as was possible, and it was almost solely through his efforts that the university was allowed $270,000 for current expenses during the two ensuing years. It is rather noteworthy that, fight as hard as he would or could, he received no assistance from Senator Paul Lamb, who represented the same district in the upper house, and whatever assistance he got in the state senate for his bill was rendered to him by Senator Harold Preston. Mr. Tucker, however, reminds the writer that the Republican members of the lower house generally favored the appropriation, while the same was opposed by the Democratic and Fusion members, of which Senator Lamd was a leading light. He is a pri-nter by trade and still holds his working card in that organization, so organized labor has no complaint to make, as he is one of their number and will prove as strong a friend to them as anyone else in the next legislature. King county in O. A. Tucker will have one representative in whom she can place implicit confidence and know he is going to do his level best to forge her to the front. POLITICAL POT - PIE The Republicans of the state should not overlook the fact that the number of colored voters are rapidly on the increase, and that under the leadership of such an organizer as James E. Shepperson of Roslyn they might do the party great harm if some concessions are not made to them. Mr. Shepperson has been a party leader and one that has held the colored voters of Kittitas county in line to a large extent for the past fifteen years and it is nothing but right that he be considered in the councils of the party. The disposition on the part of the Republican party to overlook the faithfulness of the colored voter has become so apparent in these late years that he is becoming restless, and it will not take very much to send him off on a tangent and God knows where he would land when once he starts. JAMES E. SHEPPERSON --- --- VOL. 1X, NO. 20 will be elected by an overwhelming majority, a majority doubtless larger than that received by any other candidate on the ticket, and he would have done this if he had had a strong Democratic opponent, all because he has made a most successful official since he has held the office and has attended strictly to his business, not leaving it to the care of deputies or anyone else. When Dr. Hoye has been needed all one had to do was to telephone to the office and he would soon be in communication with the county coroner, thereby not being annoyed with deputies who could not speak for their principal. It is not in the province of The Seattle Republican to introduce the present county coroner to the voting public in this county, for he is perhaps known ever better than The Seattle Republican itself, so at Dr. C. E.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1902 Most people of this county have heard and read of Farmer Funston, the well-known Kansas congressman, and have admired him because he left his farm and so ably represented his district in Congress, measuring arms at all times and under all conditions with his more polished competitors in the halls of Congress. While P. J. Smith, the well-known King county commissioner, has not acquired the title of "Farmer Smith," nevertheless, he is as much entitled to it as ever was Farmer Funston, because Mr. Smith left his farm and took up the duties of county commissioner for the largest wealthiest and most populous county in the state of Washington, and has been a most brilliant success. For the past four years he has conducted the affairs of the county which he has had the oversight of, with singular success and business tact. Aught can not be said against Mr. Smith in his management of the office of county commissioner. Not only can aught not be said against him, but he has made a host of friends since he has been serving in that capacity and was the unanimous choice of his district for renomination at the time of the convention, and The Republican feels safe in predicting at this time that he will likewise be the unanimous King county next November man in the state," can be who is his opponent on the has been a hard matter or it would matter not who whelming majority just the official capacity of was no less striking than owns and operates one is proud of the fact that of the high moral stand be fewer public scandal is without blot or blem condemnatory word again the character of any Rep The Democrats are incl inasmuch as all of them of the family for another second senatorial district for state could not be found in the district, or Mr. Tucker will be defeated for the before and was not found wanting quote from the record the vote given In order that our readers may see of both the three Democratic as well given: her made an ideal member of the lower all times the interest of King county, selected from King county in the person county will be more enthusiastic in usually commend him to the voters of state for him as a unit. her's legislative record in favor of the legislative career he started out to secure most solely through his efforts that the years.

Tucker will have one representative best to forge her to the front. likewise be the unanimous choice of his district for re-election and almost all of King county next November. "P. J. Smith is a fair, honorable and upright as any man in the state," can be heard on the streets any day his name is mentioned. Just who is his opponent on the Democratic ticket is a question not easily answered, as it has been a hard matter for the Democrats to get a man to take the nomination; but it would matter not who was nominated against him he would be elected by an overwhelming majority just the same. Under Gov. John H. McGraw, Mr. Smith acted in the official capacity of state dairy commissioner, and his success in that position was no less striking than his success in the capacity of a King county rancher. He owns and operates one of the best and most up-to-date ranches in King county and is proud of the fact that he is Farmer Smith. If party nominees generally were of the high moral standing and business-like qualities as is P. J. Smith there would be fewer public scandals and men would be more readily trusted. That his record is without blot or blemish is apparent by the Daily Times not daring to utter one condemnatory word against him, though it stands ready to falsely accuse and besmirch the character of any Republican official, whether such official does or does not merit it. The Democrats are inclined to think the Smith family is too well represented, but inasmuch as all of them are good men they will have to stand the big representation of the family for another two years. The Times is insistent as to Senator Turner's continued friendship for the Seattle canal, all of which may be quite true, but doesn't the Times overlook the fact that if Harold Preston is elected United States senator he will be a much better friend to the Lake Washington canal than even it has made Senator Turner out as being? The fact of the matter is Turner is no better friend to the Lake Washington canal than was John L. Wilson or any other United States senator not from Tacoma, nor would be Ankeny or anyone else. Senator Turner has done nothing especially commendable, so far as Seattle is concerned, toward the perfecting of the plans for the Seattle canal, nor would he, if re-elected, do any more than might casually come his way. He seems no more favorable to it than Jones and perhaps no more favorable to it than Cushman, only he is a Democrat and the Times is a Democratic paper and wants to see him re-elected. If the Republican party in King county will elect the legislative ticket from top to bottom they will thereby give King county a leverage in the next legislature which will enable --- P. J. SMITH. it to effectively work for the election of Harold Preston to the United States senate, then the Lake Washington canal will have a friend in the United States senate, and it won't be George Turner, but it will be Harold Preston. The campaign in King county was opened last Saturday evening under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican Club, of which George B. Lamping is a leading light. Glancing through the long list of vice presidents the Pie-maker was astounded to note that not a single Afro-American was among the number. But what more could have been expected from a club that champions such a person as George B. Lamping, who boasts of having no use whatever for a "nigger". While the Pie-maker is well aware of the fact that the placing of no colored man's name on the list of vice presidents did not lessen the number of listeners, but it was a singular coincident that the meeting was very poorly attended, and "I don't give a damn" was heard from all quarters on Monday when explanations as to the smallness of the number was asked. The Republican party of King county will soon learn that this Young Men's Republican Club is going to prove a very bad actor, and the sooner that the party drops it the better for the party. The Republican is pleased to note that in another column hereof will be found the Republican county tickets of Snohomish, Pierce, Kittitas and Spokane counties. In carrying these tickets on the local personal page of The Seattle Republican it is done in order that its readers may become thoroughly acquainted with the various candidate in their respective counties that are running for county offices. While the Pie-maker is anxious to see each of the entire tickets elected, yet it wishes to call special attention to the voters of the various counties of this state that it is incumbent on them from a Republican standpoint to make special efforts to elect the legislative tickets because of the fact that a United States senator is to be elected next winter and Washington wants a Republican senator at the national capital, instead of a Democratic demagogue. Regardless of how objectionable a nominee for the legislature may be to you personally, it behooves you as a Republican to vote for him, that is if you wish to keep your party both national and other wise intact. If you destroy the usefulness of the Republican president by tying his hands with a Democratian congress, it is absolutely useless to elect a Republican president. Let us hold up the hands of our distinguished president by giving him senators and represensatives that will support his policy and then we will be justified in electing him to the presidency in 1900. Edward Clayson, Sr., an old pioneer of this city and locality, has announced his candidacy for representative for the Forty-fifth legislative district in opposition to Clarence Blethen, one of the associated editors of the Times. Mr. Clayson was not nominated by a convention amid the toots of horns and the roar of drums, but he quietly got a sufficient number of votes to petition to have his name placed on the regular ticket and it required but [Name] ation and almost all of scale and upright as any one is mentioned.

That his record not daring to utter one only accuse and besmirch es or does not merit it. well represented, but the big representation and is not The public history of the county not only in contact w and there have been in the co second to could not intendent ducting g has made a few hours to get that number, which gave him the assurance that his name would appear on the official ballot for November 4. Mr. Clayson, owing to the fact that he is well known in this community and has hundreds of friends, won't do a thing to Clarence Blethe, who is likewise a candidate for the same position. The Pie-maker some time ago announced the fact that Blethe would have a hard time defeating a Republican candidate because of the unpopularity of his father and his paper, and this move on the part of Mr. Clayson doubly cinches that assurance. Mr. Clayson himself speaks of his efforts as follows: "The editor of the Patriarch is the independent candidate for the legislature in the Forty-fifth district. The 'Bleth Kid' of the Seattle Daily Crimes is the 'regular' nominee of the Democratic party for the same office. The Forty-fifth district comprises the whole of the Fifth ward and the first precinct of the Seventh ward. This is a free ad. for the 'Bleth Kid.' The editor of the Patriarch needs no ad., as he was well and favorably known to the most influential men in this district for fourteen years before the 'Kid' was born. The contrast is presented as follows. 'Tell me,' says one of the personages in that dramatic piece of Naevius, called the school, addressing himself to a citizen of a certain republic, 'tell me whence it happened that so considerable a state as yours has thus suddenly fallen to decay? The person questioned assigns several reasons, but the principal is 'that a swarm of rash, unpractical young orators had unhappily broken forth and taken the lead among them.' "Termerity, indeed, is the usual characteristic of youth, as prudence is of old age. "Which of the two do sensible people want? Which of the two has earned recognition? For my part, to be honest about it, I consider it a humiliating condition to be so circumstanced as to come into competition with a pretentious, presumptious, unscrupulous, insolent kid who has nothing to recommend him but the insolence and unscrupulousness of his dad, and being at the same time utterly destitute of one single iota of his dad's ability. Cumtux?" The attention of the Pie-maker has been called to the necessity of pointing out to its readers the duty of voting for three congressmen this year instead of two. A great many persons who have been too busy making money have overlooked the fact that under the new congressional apportionment this state is entitled to three congressmen, which is one more than she has ever had before. If you do not desire to vote the Republican ticket straight, then vote for three congressmen instead of two as heretofore. These congressmen are nominated by the state at large and not from districts as is the custom in many of the Eastern states. Again you are warned to vote for three congressmen instead of two. The members of the city council of Snohomish, Wash., if the Tribune of --- Like Dr. Hoye, Prof. Hartrantt, who seeks a re-election as superintendent of the public schools of this county, is practically without opposition, his Democratic opponent, Prof. I. B. Riche, refusing to make a fight against the present incumbent, Notwithstanding this, Prof. Hartrantt is campaigning in every district in the county and is now considered an ideal official in that capacity by all parties in King county. The public schools are in a better condition at present than ever before in the history of King county, and all because he has personally visited every school in the county not only once but repeatedly. He has come in contact with the teachers not only in the examination rooms and institute halls, but he has come personally in contact with them in their school rooms and has observed their work, criticizing here and there, wherever he thought criticism necessary. His criticisms, however, must have been of a most amiable nature and met their hearty approval, for every teacher in the county is heart and soul in favor of his re-election. At the expiration of his second term of office The Seattle Republican suggests that the voters of this state could not do a more commendable act than to select Prof. Hartranft as state superintendent of public education. He is energetic and up-to-date in his methods of conducting school affairs and he would make the same ideal state superintendent as he has made county official. . . . W. G.

He is energetic and acting school affairs and he would make the same made county official. which me for that city is correct in its statement, are certainly office hungry, as will be seen from the following excerpt taken from the Tribune: At the council meeting last Tuesday night a wag suggested that although only five councilmen were present, with the mayor and water superintendent, there were six candidates for office in the crowd—Mayor Anderson, Democratic nominee for state senator; Chas. Slater, Democratic candidate for auditor; H. D. James, Democratic nominee for constable; C. H. Bakeman Republican nominee for coroner; B. H Morgan for representative and J. L. Boyle for constable. It might have been called a bi-partisan convention. The roasting that the Times of last Sunday administered to Mr. McConnaughey's office as to how it has been conducted for the past two years was one of the most shameful conglomerated messes of prevarications that ever blackened the pages of a newspaper. As to the facts of the matter, Mr. McConnaughey did not inaugurate the overtime system, but it was inaugurated and operated to an excess under Mr. Whittelsey, the Democratic county treasurer preceding Mr. McConnaughey. Since Mr. McConnaughey has been 'country treasurer the overtime system has been broken completely and now no one gets any pay for overtime in the office. The Times told a barefaced falsehood when it said that Mr. McConnaughey had been buying tax certificates and had made thousands of dollars out of the office since he has been in charge. Mr. McConnaughey defies the Times or anyone else to point out a single instance where he has bought a tax certificate or warrant since he has been in office. The whole article in the Times bristled with falsehoods, misstatements, pervariations and down right lies and the editor-in-chief should see to it that such falsehoods cease to appear in the columns of his paper even if they are for political purposes. George Lamping says he does not want any "nigger votes" because he does not need them. Well, certainly there is not a Negro in King county that is a big enough "nigger" to force his vote onthis Negro-hating office-seeker. The statements made by The Seattle Republican in its fight against Lamping can all be verified and the mere fact that Lamping does not contradict them is prima facie evidence that they are true. If you vote for Lamping next November you are not in anywise interested in the upbuilding of the Negro race of which you are a member. No Democrat in heathen Mississippi is a worse enemy to the Negro race than George B. Lamping and whether you can or cannot defeat him it is your duty to vote against him as a matter of principle. If Lamping would have attended to business as he was elected to do, the auditor's office would have had to hire one clerk less, and during the two years King county would have saved by that alone nearly $2,400. Why is Lamping not a poor public servant? . . . . . .

The reader of The Seattle Republican who sends us the following clipping on the grounds that the editor hereof is hostile to the Catholic church is sadly mistaken in his assumption. If we were as hostile to the church as he intimated in his note we certainly would not now have our 14-year-old daughter attending a Catholic school. The article, however, is worthy of space and the same is willingly given: Your correspondent was a muchedified attendant at a high mass of requiem in St. Patrick's church here on the 18th over the remains of an old colored woman, a member of the parish, "Aunt" Julia Hanson, who lacked two years of being 100 years old. She was a notable figure in Washington, and all the papers here gave extended notices of her life, death and burial. "Aunt" Julia was born in Maryland in 1804, of a slave mother. At her mother's death, eighteen years later, her master freed her and willed her a few thousand dollars. She came to Washington, invested her money in real estate and went to work, and for eighty years thenceforward was noted for her industry, economy, piety and charity. Everyone knew her and no one failed to praise her. Up to the day of her death at 98 she was active and clearheaded. The care of an invalid husband and unfortunate brother for over fifty years was borne faithfully and cheerfully. Her investments proved fortunate, and notwithstanding her generosity to the church always, and her charity to the poor and helpless black and white, she died wealthy Shortly before her death she gave $10,000 to Father McGee to help his new church of the Sacred Heart. Mrs. Hanson's remains were attended by hundreds of her own race and almost as many white people. It was rather a novel sight to see the center front of St. Patrick's church filled with colorful people—her relatives and friends. Father McGee preached a beautiful sermon. He likened "Aunt" Julia to the perfect woman who is described in the thirty-fifth chapter of Proverbs. The woman who goes not about gadding, but who wisely attends to her eternal interests, who keeps her house and makes it a paradise for her family, who works with her own hands for the welfare of her household and lends not her ear nor her tongue to frivolities; whose hand is always reached to lift up the needy and the helpless. There are two Catholic churches in Washington for Negroes especially, but for all that one finds a generous sprinkling of devout colored people in every other of the sixteen or eighteen Catholic churches in the city—Washington City Correspondent.

PRICE FIVE CENTS and making himself even better acquainted than he already is. This will make the third campaign that Prof. Hartranft has made in King county for the same position, he having been defeated by the free silver craze in 1896. Unfortunately for the schools of this state, superintendents cannot hold the office but two terms in succession. If such a law did not exist it is barely possible that Prof. Hartranft could almost get a life tenure to this office from the voters of King county, which would be voiced by Republicans, Democrats, Socialists and Populists, one and alike. It seldom ever happens that an office-holder, however hard he may work, can so endear himself to the voting public as to be the unanimous choice of all parties after having served but two years.

We believe that the Bible is all right in the public schools of this country, but a good seasoned hickory would give those attending the school a much better understanding of the Bible if it was judicially applied. According to an exchange soap and water has absolutely cured a St. Louis Chinaman of leprosy. We have never seen soap and water used on lepers, but we have seen it used with a telling effect on most every other kind of filth. --- The baseball farce is over and the pennantship goes where the league of this neck of the woods intended it to go from the very outset. The lay citizen who bets on the pennantship in a baseball league is crazy to get to throw his money away. Speaking about the young man who killed himself in Seattle the other day because he owed a newspaper, prompted a journalist not long since to remark that if everybody who owed a newspaper would kill themselves two-thirds of the inhabitants of this country would fill suicide graves. --- If the fight on the part of the labor unions against the Frye-Bruhn Company is not showing signs of weakening, then we miss our gues. Even the banners before those markets that use the Frye-Bruhn meats are becoming tattered and torn, so disgust are they with the useless fight that is being waged by organized labor. --- The Tacoma Ledger suggests that it is a splendid time to die just now, owing to a scarcity of coal down in Hades. Don't worry, old man, about there being a scarcity of coal in the lower regions, for if you should happen to shuffle off this mortal coal the "old man" would find quite a plenty of fuel to burn you good and brown. The pension bureau granted 43,661 new pensions last year and congress authorized 291 by special act. The number of pensioners dropped from the rolls during the year was 42,241, of whom 37,745 died, 909 forfeited their pensions by remarriage and 1,369 minors attained their majority—The Tacoma News. And now comes the Tacoma Ledger with the information that Tacoma is to have a model pavement in future. Pray tell us, brother, what advantage will there be in Tacoma having a few model pavements? What Tacoma needs most is a few moving pavements, as they might be an incentive to her sleepy denizens to ge up and hustle. We see that Paul Kruger, the erstwhile president of _____, has been speaking to his former generals and sang: "May the blessings of the Lord rest upon you." There seems to be no doubt but that Mr. Kruger speaks as he feels, but had he used better judgment he would not now be a fugitive from justice and a stranger in a strange land. His aftersight is much better than was his foresight. When the Tacoma News compares "Tacoma of twenty years ago with Tacoma of the present day" it can do so without very much elaboration. Tacoma twenty years ago was asleep and Tacoma today is asleep. If, therefore, there is any difference between sleeping Tacoma twenty years ago and sleeping Tacoma today it is up to you to figure it out. Justice, a paper published in Manila, declares that slavery still exists in the Philippine islands, and an exchange suggests that it be investigated by this government at once. Just why it wishes the government to throw away money on such a trifle as that is more than we can see. Let the United States investigate some of its own forms of slavery before it goes across the water to look after some other kind. A New York bootblack has been discriminating against women, absolutely refusing to shine their boots on a public stand, owing to the fact that it draws curious crowds to see the job done. Just why shining a woman's shoes should attract a curious crowd of loungers any more than shining a man's shoes is what we are unable to explain, unless it should happen that a woman's shoe extends to her kness, and she insists on getting her money's worth by having the entire shoe shined. Why should the Republicans of this state sacrifice one of their congressional nominees in order that the Times might get the credit of electing one of the Democratic nominees, however good or able such a Democratic nominee may be? If the Times thinks for a moment that the Republicans have so lost their reason it was never worse left. Not much, thank you. Every Republican nominated on the state ticket will be elected and a Republican United States senator will succeed George Turner in the United States senate. If the Spectator of Spokane is desirous of using the matter of The Seattle Republican, inasmuch as it does not intend to give The Republican credit for what it uses, we suggest that it send to the office direct and get a duplicate copy of the matter before it goes to press, that it might appear in The Seattle Republican and the Spokane Spectator the same day and thereby not give the Spectator the appearance of using it second-handed. The Republican's Schivley story and The Republican's Burleigh story were taken by the Spectator verbatim et literatim, and yet not a line of credit was given to The Republican for the same. You're a bird, you are! That Duluth man who committed suicide a few minutes after he wrote to a friend, "I have just found out what an ass I am," was unfortunate for not having discovered his real predicament years prior. There are others in this world who should try to discover what so many others already know, and then they, too, might render a long-suffering public much real good by following suit. Suiciding in New York for the year 1900 was equally as popular as in former years. The following table will show the New York suicides and how they performed the act during the year 1900: Totals ..... 459 135 594 Of late years the average man seems to take special delight in taking his own life. Other statistics concerning suicides are herein given, which will show that it is not only popular in New York, but throughout the United States. In New York city, between 1887 and 1896, inclusive, 2,242 abortive attempts at suicide were reported by the police, who reported 2,902 successful suicides. In Philadelphia, during the years 1891 and 1898, inclusive, 952 vain attempts at suicide were reported by the police, and 981 successful suicides. Whites First Came. Just such a circumstance as is referred to in the above article reminds the writer quite well of an incident that happened in Seattle when Bishop Lee was to preach at the A. M. E. church in this city on Fourteenth avenue some five years ago. Bishop Lee is one of the most polished and refined divines in the A. M. E. church, and the First Methodist church in this city learned that fact from the bishop himself, who preached at that church on the Saturday prior to his preaching in the A. M. E. church on the Sunday here referred to. Both Bishop Lee and Bishop Goodsell spoke at the First M. E. church on Saturday, the one welcoming the other and the other responding to the same, and so pleased visitors were compelled to line themselves up in the aisles and around the walls in order to hear their own bishop. Bishop Lee could tell even an effete white something he wanted to hear and he followed him even in a colored congregation to hear it. When colored men in all trades, professions and callings so perfect themselves as to be of interest to all manner of men much of the race prejudice now common in this country will slowly but surely melt away.

He announced that he would preach at the A. M. E. church the following Sunday evening, and of course there was a rush for seats, as all wanted to hear him. As is too frequently the case, the colored folk were rather slow in getting out to church on Sunday evening, and to their utter surprise (and probably disgust) when they did get there not a single seat was left for them to use, as the whites had rushed in and taken them, they being free, while the colored members of the congregation as well as the Get acquainted.

It will be remembered that it was only a few days ago that Secretary Hay addressed a note to the Roumanian government in behalf of the Jews, beseeching that the citizens thereof desist from the many per- secutions on the Jews that are report. ed from time to time as taking place therein. If the action of the secretary was not a play to the galleries it was certainly a most commendable step; Tut it seems rather strange that Sec- retary Hay would make such an ap- peal to the authorities of Roumania wnen the Jews are openly insulted, publicly and willfully, in almost every city, town and hamlet of any size, especially in the northern section of the United States, without regard to either right or law. ‘The Jews are persecuted even worse in New York city than the Negroes, and thats say- ing a good deal. It therefore occurs to the writer that Secretary Hay had better spend his energies In trying to smother out the numerous expositions cf race hatred in this country instead of exhausting himsel’ on a foreign pow- er, which pays no more attention to what he says along this line than it would to the bark of a yaller dog, Let Negroes Do Similar. ‘This protective league that the Jews are forming in West Superior has its origin in New York and Chicago, where the Jews have effectively organized for the purpose of bettering their so- cial and political condition and have done so. In West Superior the Jews themselves claim to have but 300 votes and yet they threaten to cast those votes so effectively as to make it an ‘object for the different parties seek ing office to see to it that the Jews are not openly insulted by the rabble ‘of the town and then mistreated by the municipal officials because they are Jews. A more effective step could not be taken thaa this, and it is point ed out in this connection for the ex press purpose of pointing out to the 1,200 colored men in Sesttie as Weil as the many hundred in other places where they are subjected to all ‘kinds of insults and indignities by the Anglo-Saxons, and yet they will not use thelr yotes so as to ameliorate their condition in a single instance. In this city * county officer has publicly announced that he would never permit a colored person to hold a position in any office, public or private, with which he was connected, and he has said this notwithstanding the fact that there are at least 1,200 colored voters in King county, and only three weeks before the election, and which votes, if solidly cast against him, would mean his cer- tain defeat at the polls; but he be. lieves that the colored voters are Re- publican blind and will vote for every yaller dog on the ticket, regardless of what such yaller dog may say against the race. Let the colored man follow the example set by the Jews and organize for their mutual protec. tion and cast the weight of such or ganization against the man or men Who offers indignities or Insults to them as fa race, and the assertion is here ven- tured that such will not soon be re- peated because men are not looking for certain defeat, Admits the Accusation. A few weeks ago The Seattle Re- publican commented on the lynching that occurred in Corinth, Mississippi, rater severely from a Northern stand- point, because it believed the facts as presented warranted such comment. It pointed out that the Anglo-Saxons in that section weer rapidly reverting to a barbarous state, as no Christian ciy- ilized human being could perpetrate such flendish acts as that reported by the Associated Press of the burning of the Negro at the stake in that town by the whites, which.was made a holiday occasion, and around which men, wo- men and children by the thousands gathered and shouted for joy as the wretch writhed In the fiery flames which Snally consumed him. It hardly seems possible that human beings could perpetrate such @ fiendish act and yet this is only one of many that occur in that country and ocea- sionally in the North from time to time. The following from the Walla ‘Walla Union, one of the leading daily papers in Eastern Washington, com- menting on the actions of the Missis- sip! mob, will be read with interest by all classes and nationalities who are interested in the welfare of man- kind in general: ‘The Evidence Conclusive. If the Corinth Herald is representa- tive of the sentiment in the state of Mississippi, we have in the issue of the 2nd inst, a horrible illustration that the brute in man has not been eliminated by the enlightenment of the nineteenth century. Heading the arti cle with the appalling line, “There Was a Strange Face in Hell on Mon- day,” the editor proceeds to justify one of the most bloodthirsty lynchings rec- orded in American history. The minuteness of the report of the assault and the burning of the “screaming nigger” is so unutterably repulsive that its publication in a pa- per and the reading of it in American families seems well-nigh incredible. But perhaps the most disgusting fea- ture of the article lies in the subtle ringing in of Bible verses to illuminate with sacred words the most infernal passions that arise in man. ‘The 1yncning problem will never be sclved, if the public press encourages the inhuman tortures of a mob instead of demanding justice at the hands of the law. No matter how great the crime may be, it is not remedied by another crime, nor does the death of the criminal restore life to the un- happy woman. It can also be said from a pathological point of view that lynching will hardly serve as a check to passion when it rises like a tide that downs all reason. At all events the affair at Corinth does not advertise the standard of civ- ilization in the state of Mississippi, and, while the impulsiveness of the mob may be excused, reflects fatally upon the editor who can sit calmly in his sanctum and throw fuel upon the infernal passions instead of quench- ing them. Had a War Record. Down in Virginia, where the Nergo has been disfranchised because he is & Negro, a queer case has arisen which may cause consternation in the Dem: ocratic camp as to the registering and voting of a large number of persons who are ostensibly colored. A Negro man whose dress and manner both showed signs of prosperity and educa- tion and whose cast of features was that of the Caucasian rather than that of the Ethopian race presented him- self at the registration clerk in Rich- mond the other day. The clerks of course expected him to register either under the property or the understand. ing clause, but were astonished to hear him say he wished to register under the militery service clause. He denied having been a soldier ii. the Spanish-American war or having serv- ed in the Con‘ederate army, but he said his father was a Confederate sol dier and~had war a record. When asked him father's name he gave It different from his own, but hastily ad- ed he had taken his mother’s name. His father was a well-known white man in that community. He stood ready to verify his assertions and his mother swore'to the facts as stated by him and under the law the clerks were forced:to register him. This has caus- ed a world of comment, as there are at present in the neighborhood of two million mulato Negroes in the South, where the Negro has been disfranchis- ed, and the most of them are sons of ‘well-known white men in that commu- nity who have “a war record.” Now, if they take advantage of that clause and register it will mean a mighty shak- ing of dry bones in the old Democratic camp, because if they should join is- sues with the white Repub.icans of those states they would be able to almost rule the elections in many of the Southern states. Here's a defect in the ‘grandfathers’ clause” regis- tration that our Democratic brethren will have to doctor or it will give them much trouble in the future. Booker Washington's Report. The twenty-first annual report of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial In- stitute has been sent out by the prin- cipal, Booker ‘T. Washington, and it is full of meat for thought for those Interested in the education of the Negro race and the succes of the Tus. Kegee school. Sketching from Prof. Washington's report it is found that during the year just closed there were 1,884 students enrolled, with an ever- age attendance of 1,218. The stu- dents making up this number came from thirty different states and terri- tories and from five foreign countries ‘This studett report does not include “The Children’s House,” which is a primary school in close proximity to the regular school, nor does it include 121 students In the night school in the town, nor eighteen students in the cooking school. It requires 112 of ficers and teachers to carry on the school and all-combined make a colony ‘of 1,500 persons on the campus grounds. Commenting on what the graduates do, Prof. Washington points out many Illustrations of the success of the pupils leaving the school. Dur ing the year $241,401.09 were turned into the treasury, of which amount $126,864.29 were used for current ex ‘penses, $46,788 added to the permanent ae fund and $150,203.95 for permanent improvement. The endow- ‘ment fund is now $299,759.02, which is Invested by some of the country’s most ‘noted financiers. ‘The report on the whole is highly interesting and wil be commented upon in these columns from time to time.

Among the many successful ranchers in king county the names of two Afro-Americans can be enrolled. Mr. J. E. Oliver and Mr. D. Myers, both of whom live near Sunnydale and have splendid farms and are doing exceedingly well. Mr. Myers has a hennery in connection with his ranch, and from which he realizes a handsome in come. There is room for many more such energetic men of color and this paper truly hopes to see some of those who are looking for jobs about the city benefit from the experience of those men mentioned above. "I see," said a well-known train porter who comes to Seattle periodically on one of the transcontinental lines, "that Ed Cudihee is again a cannuate for sheriff of King county. I am neither a Democrat nor democratically inclined, but permit me to say to you that Ed Cudihee, so far as the Afro-Americans are concerned, is one of God's noblemen. I knew him in Wisconsin when he ran a grocery store and I am prepared to say that colored persons living near him or saving had any dealings with him never got more consideration or better treatment at the hands of a human being than did Mr. Cudihee give them. They swore by him all because he proved to them to be their friend under all conditions. I do not know what the colored folk are going to do as to voting for him in King county, but were I in King county I should vote for him, his Democratic proclivities to the contrary notwithstanding." The Republican is not prepared to say how many, if any, of the colored folks are going to vote for Ed Cudihee, but it does know that a great many of them are exceedingly friendly toward his candidacy because he has shown he a great many favors since he has been sheriff of King county. The friends of Rev. Scott are much pleased with Mr. Cudihee on account of the treatment he has accorded him since he has been in the toils of the law, and it will not be surprising if a great many of them in this county did vote for him. Mr. Cudihee was raised in New York on a farm, and it has been learned from one who knew him in his boyhood days that on the farm where he was raised a colored man lived and he and Ed worked side by side for years, owing to a bond of friendship that sprung up between the two as well as Mr. Cudihee's family. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Though George B. Lamping was elected to fill the office of county auditor, yet since he qualified for the office it can be said without fear of successful contradiction that he has not spent a third of his time in the office and performed no duties when he did happen to be there. Any official who leaves his entire official duties to the sole care of deputies is unit to receive the suffrage of the voters for re-election. Lamping has disappointed his most ardent supporters of two years ago. There is a sufficient number of colored families in Seattle to warrant business houses in giving one of their number lucrative employment as an incentive for the rest to reciprocate with their trade. The business houses of this city will do so if the colored folk themselves will make the proper efforts. Whether you get such positions as do other nationalities in this city depends largely upon how you spend your money and from whom you make your purchases.

A church carnival and benefit, lasting for three days, beginning last Wednesday evening, was held at the A. M. E. church the past week. Exercises were held at the church every evening, each drawing a crowded house. Rev. Freeman and his aids have been working very hard to get ready for this carnival and succeeded most admirably. A voting contest as to who would act as queen of the carnival had been going on for a number of days prior to the opening of the carnival, which resulted in Miss Georgetta Selby being elected to the honored place. Miss Selby is one of the leading workers among the young folk at the church and well merited the unexpected favor. She was crowned queen of the carnival Wednesday evening in the presence of a crowded house and her prime minister, Mr. Hayden Richardson, as well as her maids of honor, conducted themselves most nobly during the exercises. A musical programme was rendered Thursday evening, the opening chorus being by the Children's Concert, with "Massa in the Cold, Cold Ground." This was followed by other renditions. Program.

O "A Wise Member," James Barrors' greatest comedy, will be given an elaborate production at the Seattle Theatre all next week by C. B. Marvin and an exceptional company. As a comedy organization this company is, taken in its entirety, one of the best now on the road. The play abounds with funny situations and catchy music. This is the second season of this comedy, and, while both company and play were an unqualified success last season, Mr. Marvin has made some changes in both, retaining all that was best and adding many new and pleasing features. THE THIRD AVENUE. The fourth act of "On the Stroke of 12," the sensational comedydrama under the direction of W. B. Lawrence, contains a novel and complicated stage effect. It shows the interior and exterior of Moses Levi's pawnshop. The interior of the building is divided into three rooms, Levi's place of business, and a counterfeiter's den, and an old garret where a young girl is imprisoned The Best and Most Practical Oil Heater Made Last season our selling of oil heaters proved highly satisfactory; the demand at times was beyond our ability to supply.

The action in this act is complicated and highly thrilling, and it ends with an exciting fire scene and rescue of the young girl.

THE GRAND "Floradora," with it great outlay of magnificent scenic effects, its elaborate costume display, and its many right and entertaining features, is now in its second season of prosperity as a traveling organization, following what has proven to be the greatest record ever attained by a like attraction in the metropolis. This now famous musical comedy has in its short life in America by far exceeded any former achievements attained by other musical attractions, as it holds the absolute record for continuous runs in New York, having been sung there 535 times without interruption, and has enjoyed engagements of continuous weeks in many of the large cities. Its success as a traveling attraction last year, which was its first out of New York, was unprecedented in the way of receipts and general popularity. It will be sung in this city on Sunday night at the Grand by John C. Fisher and Thos. W. Ryley's great organization, in precisely the same painstaking manner that has distinguished it elsewhere. J. H. Stoddart. Much of the fun in Mr. J. H. Stoddard's production, "The Bonnie Brier Bush," centers around the character of a bibulous Scottish letter carrier named McKittrick, known to his townsfolk of the Glen as "Posty." The character is played by Mr. Reuben Fax, and is said to be the most remarkable comedy creation of that gentleman's long and honorable stage career. Mr. Stoddard, of course, assumes the role of Lachlan Campbell, the bigoted, rock-ribbed but gentle and loving old pillar of Presbyterianism, who all but wrecks the life of his daughter and himself in obedience to the dictates of his stern creed. Other prominent members of "The Bonnie Brier Bush" Company are Russell Bassett, Augustine Duncan, Bessie Baldwin, Helen Holmes, Katherine Mulkins and Al Phillips. The engagement at the Grand is for three nights, beginning next Thursday.
