The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT - PIE VOL. 1X. NO. 25 The death of H. H. Martin, representative elect from the 27th district, means that a wild scramble is going to be indulged in by the leaders of the three senatorial aspirants in this state to fill that vacancy with a man who will be favorable to their interests. With nothing else to engage their minds save this, the fight in that district will almost assume one of state importance. Gov. McBride will issue a special proclamation within a few days to hold an election there to fill the vacancy and of course his friends will do all in their power to see to it that a Preston-McBride candidate be nominated, while the friends of both Wilson and Ankney will be equally on the alert for the same result. One vote in the next legislature may turn the scales in favor of some one candidate, and it therefore behooves each one of them to endeavor to gain a point whenever they can. The fight in the 27th district will therefore be watched with much interest by the politicians who favor the respective candidates for United States Senator, as well as by those who have an eye single to the railroad commission bill. Senator Ed. S. Hamilton and Senator Geo. H. Baker have both announced their withdrawal from the race for president pro tem of the Senate and each have agreed to support Dr. J. J. Smith for the honor. Gov. McBride has likewise consented to not oppose Dr. Smith's election and it therefore can be said that he will be unanimously elected president pro tem of the Senate, which carries with it, especially during the sitting of the Legislature, the power of Lieutenant Governor. Dr. Smith is one of King County's rising young politicians and one who bids fair to continue rising until he reaches the top of the political ladder in this State. The Plea maker is of the opinion that it would not be a wild prediction by any means to say that at no distant time Dr. J. J. Smith will be Governor of the State of Washington. The Pie-maker has been creditably formed that the King County Legislative delegation will not indorse any one from this county for speaker of the house. It is believed that if a speaker is elected from King County that it will injure the chances of Harold Preston's being elected to the United States Senate, and for that reason the King County aspirants have agreed to not enter the fight. This leaves but three announced candidates for the Speakership, viz., W. H. Thompson, of Kitsap County, J. H. Easterday, of Pierce County, and J. G. Megler, of Wahklakum County. Just who the favorite of these three aspirants is at this time is more than the Pie-maker would attempt to predict, but he is of the opinion, under the circumstances, that the fight will be between Mr. Thompson and Mr. Megler. If Mr. Thompson can secure the aid of King County and then stand pat with the Northwest it would mean the support of the Governor, and the odds would be quite in his favor. On the other hand, if Mr. Megler, who is likewise friendly to the Governor and Senator Wilson, can divide the strength of those two leading politicians he will break even with Mr. Thompson and thereby leave Easterday with the balance of power to force one or the other of them to grant both him and Pierce County favors and concessions that neither would otherwise get. It is probably true that both Megler and Thompson come from the same political faction just now. If it be true that Easterday comes from the Ankeny faction it is barely possible that he might land in spite of the combined efforts of the Wilson-McBride candidates. The latter faction seems to have two candidates for the Speakership and it is surmised that one of their candidates will be withdrawn at an early date and a combined fight made by them to defeat any candidate for Speaker of the house that is favored by the railroad push. The Pie-maker prior to the election made bold the assertion that Gov. McBride would be a candidate for the United States Senatorship in case he found it impossible to land Mr. Presson. Now comes the Wilber Register, an influential Eastern Washington weekly, with the remark: "What's the matter with McBride for U. S. Senator? That would cure the symptoms of a deadlock and be quite acceptable to the people." Along this line Editor C. W. Gorham, of the Snohomish Tribune, who was a member of the last legislature, made the prediction one day this week while visiting Seattle that Governor McBride would announce his senatorial candidacy within two weeks after the legislature convened, and while he is not only bitterly opposed to the governor's senatorial candidacy, but is Ex-Senator John L. Wilson was supposed to have been knocked down and counted out at last Tuesday's election. But the wily John bobs up serenely to declare that he is still in the senatorial fight and that he has almost as many votes to start with as either Preston or Ankeny. He claims 30 votes and intimates that there will be many more coming at the opportunity moment. Wilson is undoubtedly ger and he did not come as a "carpet bagger" either. And if a fairminded, honest newspaper like the Portland Oregonian, which prints the news without color, sees fit to approve of Mr. Ankeny's candidacy it is a far greater compliment than to have it come from the Ledger. The Oregonian carries weight with its opinions, which cannot be said of either the Tacoma papers. CURRENT COMMENT likewise opposed to his gubernatorial candidacy, he felt at this time that the chances of Henry McBride being elected to the United States Senate were quite as favorable, if not more so, than those of either Presston, Wilson or Ankeny. He was of the opinion that the legislature, as it now stands, so far as the three announced candidates are concerned, is in a deadlock state and if it continues in that state very long Governor McBride would be the only man that could break it and he certainly would not fall to take advantage of such an opportunity. The following article copied from the Snohomish Tribune, speaks well for John L. Wilson's chances for the election to the United States Senate. Snohomish County has always been favorable to Mr. Wilson's candidacy, and the Tribune, perhaps, voices the sentiment that is common to the politicians of that county. It is quoted: "Slate-makers who are figuring out the results of the contest for U. S. Senators at Olympia this winter, and fall to figure on Senator John L. Wilson are off. With his contest with Senator Turner in Spokane County, Mr. Wilson lost three legislators, but he gained more in other parts of the state, and will be in evidence when the fight opens." The following notice from the Walla Walla Union throws something of a side light on John L. Wilson's aspirations for U. S. Senator and at the same time hits back at Mr. Wilson's paper for dubbing Mr. Ankeny as Oregon's third candidate for the U. S. Senate. . . . Ex-Senator John L. Wilson was supposed to have been knocked down and counted out at last Tuesday's election. But the wily John bobs up serenely to declare that he is still in the senatorial fight and that he has almost as many votes to start with as either Preston or Ankeny. He claims 30 votes and intimates that there will be many more coming at the opportunity moment. Wilson is undoubtedly CURRENT A Millionaire Convicted. Now that Col. Ed. Butler, the St. Louis multo-millionaire, has been convicted of attempting to bribe one of the officials of that city for the purpose of financial gain for himself and friends, it begins to look as though the millionaire in this country will be punished for crimes against the Government the same as the pauper. Conviction, however, in the lower courts does not always mean that the convicted will be punished according to the statutes regulating such convictions. No better evidence of this can be offered than the acquittal of Roland B. Molineaux, who was twice convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be electrocuted, but who subsequently, owing to the fact that he had vast sums of money at his disposal, succeeded in getting a third trial which resulted in his acquittal. If Col. Butler has as much money as he has been credited with there is no more probability of him going to the penitentiary than there is of him going to the gallows, guilty or not guilty. The man with money, somehow or other, always finds a way and a loophole to escape punishment for any crime that he may have committed. No one who followed the Molincaux case will doubt for a single instant but that if he had not have had money in an unlimited quantity he would long since have died in the electric chair by the orders of the court, in which case, according to the verdict of the last jury, an innocent man would have been killed. But Molineaux, in the minds of a great majority of the people of this country, was and is guilty of the crime he was charged with and only escaped punishment because he had money enough to subordinate a sufficient number of witnesses and perhaps others to bring about such a verdict as he finally received and Col. Butler, being able, will likewise do the very same thing. * * * Murder Running Riot. Speaking about crimes and criminals the Rev. Frederick C. Lee, of the Trinity Church of this city, said to his congregation last Sunday night, that there are more murderers in the United States than any other country in the world and that he charged the bloody criminal record of this country up to pettifoggying lawyers, who devoted their time and talent to hunting up technical points to defeat the SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1902 counting upon being the second choice of most of Preston's supporters in King county. John 1. fights best on his back and he may fool the politicians in the coming contest as badly as he did in 1895 when he carried off the prize after having been deserted by all but seven of his followers in the legislature. His headquarters were closed for one night, but the next day he came to life again and surprised even his friends by winning the senatorship. . . . Discussing the Senatorial situation and the charge which has been made by the P. I. and the Ledger concerning Mr. Ankeny being a candidate from Oregon and not from Washing ton, the Union declares it is simply petit spite and rises to make the following remark on the subject: . . . The Tacoma Ledger evidently feels keenly the result of the recent election in Washington. Its fondest hopes apparently have been shattered and to have revenge it has turned its batteries on Mr. Ankeny. What sort of a grudge the Ledger holds against Mr. Ankeny is not apparent, but that it one cannot be doubted after reading its editorial and news columns. Probably the Ledger had pinned its faith to Mr. Wilson, and being an opposition candidate for the United States senate the Tacoma paper takes it as a personal affront that the voters did not sustain his position. As a matter of fact the opposition of the Ledger is more to be cherished than its support. It never fails to secure by its antagonism the election of a ticket. So far as Mr. Ankeny is concerned he doubtless cares little for the attitude of the Ledger. It may charge him with being "an Oregon senator," or anything it pleases. The facts remain. Mr. Ankeny has been a resident of Washington longer by many years than the controlling spirit of the Ledger and he did not come as a "carpet bagger" either. And if a fairminded, honest newspaper like the Portland Oregonian, which prints the news without color, sees fit to approve of Mr. Ankeny's candidacy it is a far greater compliment than to have it come from the Ledger. The Oregonian carries weight with its opinions, which cannot be said of either the Tacoma papers. COMMENT . . . ends of justice on criminals guilty of committing wilful murder. Mr. Lee declared that the United States has 10,000 murders annually, and of that number only one per cent are punished with capital punishment. In the City of New York alone he claims Recorder Goff declares that there are more murders awaiting trial than in all five of the larger cities of Europe. Judging from the tenor of Mr. Lee's lecture, in his opinion it is second to impossible to convict one of murder in the first degree in this country, if a sufficient sum of money can only be raised by the defendants to pay petitfoggying lawyers to fight their cases and in some instances such unscrupulous lawyers take cases for nothing with the view of making a "rep" for themselves and thereby becoming better fortified to fleece some other criminal having plenty of money at his command. If this is the true condition of this country it is, to say the least, a startling state of affairs and does not speak much in favor of the superior civilization of which the United States makes so many boasts. Murder, he claims, is on the increase, and if it be true that it is increasing as rapidly as he thinks it is, then this country will soon be over-run with murders and criminals, such as is no other country in the world. Mason Had Much Money Speaking about millionaire murders reminds the writer that one Allen G. Mason, of Boston, Mass., was recently arrested and subsequently charged with being a second Jack the Ripper. While nothing definite could be shown to fasten the crime on Mason, nevertheless circumstances tended to show that he was, if not directly, at least indirectly connected with the many crimes against human nature which had occurred in Boston and its suburbs during the past year. Two girls were recently murdered on the streets there, for which Mason was temporarily held accountable. He was to some extent informed on by one Perry, a young Negro not to exceed 20 years of age, who claimed to have received the jewelry of the murdered girls from Mason, which he pawned for small sums of money. Mason was rich and influential, though a bit wrong under the hat, having been confined in an asylum for a number of years, while Perry was without influence and without money, and as a result Mason is now free while Perry occupies a cell in murderer's row. Perry may be guilty, and so may Mason, but judging from the reports sent out there has been no more to prove or show that Perry was guilty than Mason, and if the case is to be tried on circumstantial evidence, then it seems that they both should have been held to answer to the higher court. in a building for the erection of which Mr. Carnegie has donated $200,000 The city has also bonded itself to the amount of $100,000 for the purchase of a site for the new building. The city council of Seattle on Monday evening formally accepted Mr. Carnegie's gift and compiled with the conditions by passing a resolution pledging the corporation to appropriate fifty thousand dollars annually for the library. Uncle Sam's Smitha. Some industrious student of history has figured out that there are 600,000 Smiths in the United States. In other words, one out of every 127 inhabitant of our fair land bears that name. So numerous are the Smiths in this country that they exceed the combined number of our standing army and naval forces and should they rebel against the United States they would be able to put in the field a larger army than did the Confederate States during the great civil war. There are 126,000 American Smiths of Mililita age. In greater New York alone there are 26,000 Smiths, in Chicago and Philadelphia there are each about 12,500; in Boston 5,000, and in St. Louis 3,700. The Smith family is in excess of the Browns about two to one and in excess of the Jones family four to one. The necrological record of the country shows that 6,800 Smiths die annually, 567 every month and 19 every day. There are 3,000 Smiths employed by Uncle Sam, not including those in the army and 204,000 of school age. To this list of Smiths the Smyths, the Sythes, the Schmidts and the Smids and various other ways of spelling Smith are to be added, which will increase the Smith family to nearly 1,000,000 souls. Roughly estimating there are in the United States and British Isles combined 1,100,000 individuals belonging to the great Smith family. Colorado Students Strike. Now comes the report that 500 students in the University of Colorado have gone on a strike for some fancied grievance or wrong which has been imposed upon them by the faculty. Perhaps the students were right, but whether right or wrong this seems to be the most novel strike that has come under our observation during the long series of strikes which have prevailed in this country for at least a half a century. There seems to be some reason and excuse for organized labor strikes when the wages paid the workingmen are not adequate for them to maintain themselves and their families, but it is a rather laughable situation to see 500 students on a strike because, forsooth, they were assigned certain lessons that were not pleasing to them. It was but a few days ago that the children in a public school in Chicago went on a strike and succeeded in gaining their point, and now the teachers in that city have organized and become a part and parcel of the Central Labor Union there and threaten to strike in case the superintendent does not deal fairly by them. These days of commercialism strikes seem to be just as common in the professional line as in labor lines, and they all seem to run to the ludicrous. Alphonso's Mild Madness The King of Spain has been having trouble with his Cabinet and although yet a mere boy in public affairs he coolly but deliberately informed the members of his cabinet that they "could pick up their duds and go," and that he would form a new cabinet as best he could, but when formed it would not only suit him, but it would do his bidding. The members of the cabinet at once tendered their resignation and Senior Sagasta set about forthwith to the forming of a new cabinet which he did as follows: The Duke of Almodover, foreign minister; Senor Pulgcerver, minister of justice; Senor Equillor, minister of finance; Senor Moret, minister of interior; Gen. Weyler, war minister, The Duke of Veragua, minister of marine; Count Romones, minister of public instruction; Senor Salvador, minister of public works. Tacoma Talk Sensible. So much abuse and vilification have been heaped upon Seattle by the Tacoma papers, and apparently without excuse or provocation, that it is really refreshing to see anything in a Tacoma paper that is commendable to Seattle. The following notice, however, is taken from the Tacoma News, concerning Seattle's expected library and it is hoped that in future the Tacoma papers will give credit, even to Seattle, where credit is due. "Seattle has pledged herself to appropriate fifty thousand dollars a year for the support and maintenance of her public library, which will be house BROTHER IN BLACK There is something to be admired in the largeness of the provision Seattle agrees to make for her public library. It is much larger than Mr. Carnegie expected or wanted Seattle to make. Twenty thousand dollars a year for maintenance and a site for the building would have been sufficient to secure Mr. Carnegie's gift of $200,000. But Seattle voluntarily proposed to go much further or deeper into the library proposition than any other city of its size in the country. Public libraries are such admirable institutions that it is refreshing to find an instance of extreme devotion to the cause of learning and literature such as Seattle has just exhibited. Nevertheless it would seem that the city has undertaken rather more than her circumstances at present justly. Fifty thousand dollars a year is equal to the interest at 4 per cent on a municipal debt of $1,250,000. Besides this there is the debt of $100,000 incurred for the purchase of a site. The question arises whether Seattle in her present stage of immature development as a city can afford to invest $1,350,000 upon the top of Mr Carnegie's $200,000 in a library. For that is exactly what Seattle has done in issuing her library bonds and pledging an annual appropriation of $50,000 besides for library purposes. Libraries are worthy institutions, but car Seattle afford $1,350,000 for one now? NEVER MIND THE KNOCKERS Colored Masons Dispute The colored Masons in Los Angeles are having considerable trouble deciding between what are termed spurious Masons and the real thing. Such disturbances are to be found in almost every state in the Union at the press time where there are colored Masons, and it does seem that those interested in Masonry would settle their differences and all be one or the other. There seems to be no excuse for such contentions unless at some stage of the game there is a money consideration to be gained from it and one or the other factions is reaping the harvest and this does not seem to be a fact. If Masonry is the order it is credited with being then there seems to be no reasonable excuse for such bickerings among colored folks as is to be heard of wherever Masonry exists among them. Fear Debt Like Death. An exchange edited by a colored man editorially remarks to its readers, "Fear debt more than death." That probably accounts for so many persons of color not having any greater possessions or business enterprises under their control than they have. To go in debt in order to live beyond one's means and in order to keep pace with one's neighbors, whom fortune has favored, is certainly to be deplored and should be avoided by every person regardless of his nationality, but to go in debt in order to put on foot a business enterprise is altogether another thing and the man that does not do that will be a long time establishing himself in business. Debt is not to be feared if it is properly handled, for the wealthiest men of this or any other country were apparently swamped at the outset of their career in debt, but by successfully handling their business enterprises they not only paid them out of debt, but accumulated fortunes for them. For the young man earning $15 a week to order a $60 suit of clothes is a very foolish debt to contract, or for the young man earning $15 a week to purchase a $10 box at the theatre is likewise a very foolish debt to incur, but for him earning $15 a week to purchase a $300 lot and make periodical payments on it out of his earnings is a very commendable debt to make and one that he will be proud of, if he continues TOPICS OF THE TOWN Salary Grabbing It seems rather hard for the committee teed appoint by the City Council for the purpose of raising the salaries of the various employees of the City to reach a final agreement. It is very generally believed that those working for the city are already getting about as much salary as the average man working for a private enterprise and the business men and tax payers see no sufficient reason why those men working for the city should get any higher wages than those working for themselves. It is too bad and perhaps unfortunate that every man working for wages cannot make enough to maintain himself and family in comfort and luxury, but such a thing seems to be utterly impossible and the man working for the public should expect no more for the same amount of work than the man working for a private concern. Evidently the members of the City Council, which have this matter in hand, look at it in the same light, which accounts for them not being able to reach a conclusion in the matter without great worry and vexation. . . . Wreckless Drivers One day last week Miss Pearl E. Conway, a young lady of seventeen summers, was run over by a delivery wagon and almost fatally injured. If Miss Conway had have been a child there might have been some excuse for the driver rushing, madly over her for it would hardly have been possible for a child to have gotten out of the way of a team being driven under full headway, but being a woman as she is, the dastardly act on the part of the driver is all the less excusable. It is an indisputable fact that the drivers of the delivery wagons in this city go dashing around corners, turn curves and cross the various street crossings under full headway and frequently it requires all the efforts of a man to keep from being run over by a reckless driver. They never hold up at a street crossing any more so along that line, before he gets to be an old man. Fear debt is a very good motto when it is extravagant debt, but to fear debt from a commercial standpoint means that the man so doing will be the hewer of wood and drawer of water as long as he lives. --- Negro in a Balance. The colored voters of Alabama began mandamus proceedings against the election officers of that state to register colored voters notwithstanding the fact that the state had passed laws disfranchising the most of them prior to the last election. Proceedings were begun before Judge Jones of the U. S. District Court of Alabama, but he refused the writ on the grounds of not having jurisdiction, but he, however, certified the case directly to the U. S. Supreme Court, where it will soon be heard on its merits and the disfranchisement acts of Mississippi, North Carolina, Louisiana, Virginia, and other Southern States will be passed upon by the highest court of the land at an early date. If the Supreme Court supports the law passed by those states and legalizes the disfranchisement acts, it is expected that every Southern state will at once pass similar laws and thereby disfranchise in the neighborhood of 4,000,000 colored voters, and thus completely nullify the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. For the Supreme Court to decide adversely to the colored voters would not exactly turn them back into slavery, but it would be taking a long step in the direction of completely robbing them of all the rights of freeman and citizenship. If the amendments of the Constitution, which were their protection, be overthrown then the Negro of this country is right where the Dread Scott decision left him a half a century ago. He will have no rights that a white man is bound to respect and the courts will then decide that he can leave no state without first getting official privilege to do so. . . . Seattle is to soon lose one of its prominent attorneys, for a season at least. Hon. J. P. Ball, Jr., has decided to spend the winter in Honolulu. His entire family will go with him. Since he has been a resident of the city he has been closely identified with its progress. PRICE FIVE CENTS than would a race horse hold up at a quarter mile post. The Republican is of the opinion that the driver who ran over Miss Conway should be are rested and punished and if necessary Miss Conway should employ the best legal talent in the city to force the firm for whom the wretch was driving to pay her damages for the mishap. ... Noble Man Dead. The Queen City has lost one of its most able and unliving workers in the death of Major James R. Hayden. Major Hayden died very suddenly last Friday night as was announced in the Saturday morning paper, which caused much grief among his many friends in this section of the country. No man in the City or in the State was more generally known than he and none more honored and respected. His death will not only be mourned by the business men of this city, but it will be mourned by every class of men who have known and associated with him since he has been a citizen of the Northwest. As a banker and financier he was among Seattle's most successful, as a politician he has figured conspicuously in the affairs of Washington, as a Grand Army man he stood极 excellent, having been honored by his comrades to the highest position in the gift of his commandery, as a Free Mason he stood equally well, and at the time of his death held the highest position in the order in this section. He was likewise honored and respected in other secret organizations and leaves a host of friends in the social world of this city to mourn his untimely death. He was laid to rest last Tuesday evening and his funeral was the largest seen in the city for many months. Strike is Settled. No one will regret that the Frye-Bruhn strike has been declared off by organized labor. Whether the Company or the laborers got the better of the settlement is not ours to discuss, but it is a real pleasure to see such difficulties amicably settled, regardless of who was right or wrong in the outset. If both sides would only use discretion in such cases such misunderstandings could always be settled. Strikes seldom, if ever, accomplish what they set out to do, if anything at all, and neither side ever makes any money out of a strike. They are a good deal like the law suit, the winner is always the looser. Sam Hill in Favor. Is it possible that Samuel Hill, the well known gas king of this city, is to become the Chauncey Depew of the Northwest? Recently Mr. Hill has been much in demand as a public talker and those so fortunate as to hear him declare him to be one of the cleverest public speakers that it has been theirs to hear for a long, long time. Most people knew him to be an astute business man and some even styled him a cold blooded business man—the quintescence of the term, "heartless capitalist," and therefore his pleasing talks at public gatherings, which have recently been put on exhibition, was a genuine supprise to nearly everybody in the city. Regardless of the commercial enterprises that Mr. Hill represents in Seattle he is but a human being like the rest of us. He has a heart and a soul and if he likewise has the gift of gab he is no more of a monster than hod carrier, and would in all human probability do as much for humanity whether rich or poor as any one else. Men are not to be dispised because they are wealthy, nor are they to be branded as devils because they are rich. Rich men as a whole are no worse citizens than poor men and it seems that Sam Hill, son-in-law of James J. Hill, is no exception to the rule. . . . The colored Masons of this city will give a public entertainment Monday evening, November 24th. The following program has been arranged for the occasion: Opening chorus, "Soldier Boy," Misses O'Brien and Miss Brown; address, "Chips from the Quarry," Rev. Freeman; piano solo, waltz, "Woodland Whispers," Fanny Collins; recitation, "To the Masons," Ruth Freeman; violin solo, Alfred Purnell; recitation, Hazel Thompson; duet, mandolin and guitar, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Carson Miller; quartette, "Sunny South," Clark, Miller, Hancock and Purnell; oration, Hayden Richardson; piano solo, Mattie Collins; solo, Clifford Hancock; piano solo, "Silvery Waves," Gertrude Harvey; duet, Miss Cousins and Mr. Fort Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second-class Mail Matter. Bona Fide Circulation.....2,500 President Smith "sounds good to me." King County is a bit in the swim when it comes to Representative Smith's her ownself. Memphis actually had a great celebration without burning a Negro at the stake. How strange! From the number of outside politicians constantly in the city, evidently there is something doing. "Bad spelling is certainly a most lamentable feature about a newspaper, but how in heavens name can the Tacoma Ledger afford to talk about it? It begins to look as though Congressman Babcock will probably make Congressman Littlefield look like thirty cents with a hole in it in the coming speakership contest. Disfranchising colored voters may make the "solid South" even more solid than it has been, but it is likewise solidifying the North in direct opposition to the South. Beastly prize fights are as common in Seattle these days as murderers. With a "wide open policy" in full blast, if the "city" can only get its divvy everything goes. There will be a larger Republican majority in the Fifty-eighth Congress than there has been for a good many years. Democrats seem to be poor political prognosticators. Congress convenes the first Monday and the first day of December, when artificial lighting ought to take a tumble in the national capital owing to the great abundance of natural gas. More trouble is promised to the Molinuex family as Roland B.'s wife is now in South Dakota, with divorce intentions in her head. Well, that's better than poison in her stomach. A few of our exchanges are rejoicing over the fact the campaign "spell binders" are out of a job for two years more. Only Democratic exchanges, however, are so rejoicing. Dance halls are not to be disturbed, so says the City Council. Certainly not; they make times good and what is a moral community in comparison to a community where times are good. A Minneapolis go-between boodler pleaded guilty one day this week and saved the state the expense of convicting him. Here is a true case of a guilty conscience wanting no convicting. With Harold Preston some fifteen paces ahead of the fastest senatorial sprinter it begins to look as though he was nearing the goal, but we are told the race is not always to the swift. Weather that will do to read about has been seen in Seattle during the past week. Its such weather as this that convinces Eastern people that the prince of prevaricators live on Puget Sound. That Foster-Wilson compact, which was entered into at the time Foster was elected United States Senator, has already begun to loom up in the present senatorial fight like a lighthouse in a fog. Well, when Canada comes knocking at our door for admission for heavens sake bar the door with chrome steel. With her as a part of our government Uncle Sam would certainly have a she elephant on his hands. Lest adulterated coffee be used and thereby destroy the system, distilled liquors are to frequently used by health preserves in lieu thereof. This we would pronounce a true case of the pot calling the kettle black. There is one thing that the members of Congress can give to Alaska which would be of vital interest to her and that is some of the "hot air" that they so freely distribute to their constituents just before election time. Readers of The Seattle Republican should not overlook the fact that it was the only weekly paper that handled the election returns in a man- ner that it would be worth your while to preserve the number as a reference. Poor Marone begged to be locked up in the city jail to keep out of trouble owing to his drunken condition, but he got hammered almost to death just the same. If you want first class protection apply at police headquarters—nit. According to the last census almost as many white children as colored are wholly illiterate in the South. Certainly Sambo is not to blame for such a condition of affairs, yet there are those down there mean enough to want to lynch him for it. President Roosevelt failed to land a bear in Mississippi, although he worked long and late. If we mistake not the president failed to land a bear in that state in 1900 when he was running for the presidency. Mississippi bears are not inclined to give Northern Republicans an even break. Even in Hawaii Republicanism this year seems to have been in the air. But owing to the fact that Queen Lill is now headed for Washington where she expects to camp on the president's trail during the entire winter, with the hope of getting concessions from Congress in her favor, the success of the Republican ticket in Hawaii strikes us as a Lilloukalian ledgerdemic trick. We are taught by the Good Book that "God helps him who helps himself," and yet a fellow was sent to the penitentiary the other day, from this city, for a period of ten years for helping himself to a few of the necessaries of life and that too in one of the large stores where the owners had necessaries to burn. A great country this is that teaches you one thing and then punishes you if you do it. John L. Wilson for U. S. Senator (Tacoma News.) The time has come for a frank alignment on the question of the senatorship. The matter is of vital importance to the state. There seems to have arisen some misconception as to the support the various candidates expect. This is because a little recent history has been forgotten. It is remembered by the men who were factors in the making of it four years ago. Then there were promises made and pledges given that still are binding. It is not to be supposed that the friends of Senator Fostor will do themvolves the means of mobilizing. tions, nor that they assume for an instant that Mr. Foster would desire them to take such a course. They made open declaration of the policy they would pursue under certain circumstances. The circumstances have developed exactly in the manner that had been anticipated, and the word given four years ago there can be no impulse to count as worthless. To place this construction on the intent of either Senator Foster or his friends would be to them a grave and manifest injustice. The News is in favor of the election of John L. Wilson. The honor belongs to him. It was won by his conduct when he was a candidate before. But for his faithfulness in carrying out the arrangement entered into at that time the senatorship would not have been given to Pierce county. The division was such that only by the union of the followers of Foster and Wilson could the former gentleman be elected. Accordingly there was drawn up an agreement by which the Wilson forces were to turn their votes to Foster. This was done, and victory rested with Pierce county. One clause of the agreement is produced herewith. "Fifth—If it should transpire that John L. Wilson's friends desire to present his name four years from now to the legislature as a candidate for United States senator, it is agreed that A. G. Foster will contribute the assistance of himself and friends to Mr. Wilson's election. (Signed.) A. G. FOSTER. "Witness: James Wickersham." At the same time there was drawn up another agreement signed by the individual members of the Foster and Wilson delegations, with knowledge of the above agreement. Therefore there can be no denial of the intention of the several gentlemen to stand by their pledges. The assumption that they would do otherwise must be recognized as the assumption that they did not mean what they said, and did not endorse that to which they subscribed. There is no ground upon which this assumption can stand. The friends of Mr. Wilson are not asking anything but that which by the terms of an honest, open compact they are entitled to receive. Senator Foster was willing to sign an agreement, and understood all the agreement involved. That he would d not regard it as binding, that he would not expect his friends to regard it as binding, is a view of the case that cannot be taken. The election of senator requires nothing but the fulfillment of promises freely given. The promises were given to Mr. Wilson as a return for the strength he was able to throw, and did throw to Mr. Foster. There is honesty in politics, and there is gratitude. Mr. Wilson bestowed a substantial favor, and the fact should not be ignored at Olympia. 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. 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. Tel. Buff 1456. GEO. W. DILLING Real Estate All Kinds of Residence Property a Specialty. 420 New York Block.

Few, if any, seen in Seattle have gained as many friends in the theatrical profession as that fascinating little actress, May Sargent, who will be seen in her clever performance of the oily, scheming coquette, "Tielka Van Slittart," in "Other People's Money." She is queen of all she surveys. This is her first Western appearance. The following tribute was paid her by a prominent newspaper critic last season: "The Scottish poet might have had such another as pretty as May Sargent in his mind's eye when he wrote the well known lines: "To see her is to love her, And to love her but forever, For nature made her what she is And neer made sie anither."

But two responses have been made to the call published in The Seattle Republican for those having purchased real estate in this city during the past year to report the same. This shows how much interest you have in the upbuilding of your race. The funeral services of Mrs. Laura Jackson were held at Bonney & Stewart's chapel last Monday afternoon.

Last Tuesday morning Arthur Lampkin and Ben Nelson, both colored, were instantly killed in Mine No. 2, on the 5th level by a fall of rock. They were working in an adjoining room when they heard the cries for a fellow workman for help and rushing in they found him pinned to a prop by a large piece of coal that had slipped down and caught him. The coal was pushed back far enough to enable the man entrapped to escape and just as he stepped aside out of danger a large rock came down crushing the two colored men and killing them instantly. The room was well timbered and in splendid shape, but it is thought that the piece of coal must have loosened the prep sufficient to let the rock down. It was one of those unfortunate affairs in which blame cannot be attached to anyone as precaution had been taken for the safety of the occupants of the room. Both men were comparative strangers having lived here but a short time, but the accident is a sad one on account of their having given up their lives in order to rescue a fellow workman—Cascade (Roslyn) Miner.
