The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
POLITICAL POT - PIE
VOL. IX. NO. 26
The announcement is the various papers to the effect that Gov. McBride consented to the unanimous election of Dr. J. J. Smith, president pro tem of the senate, has been denied by Gov. McBride's private secretary. Instead of favoring his election in the governor if reports be true, will fight it to the bitter end and will doubtless bring forward Stanton Waburton of Tacoma as an opponent to Dr. Smith. But in this the governor must realize that he is fighting against odds in such an undertaking and with the almost absolute certainty of losing. Nevertheless he seems to reason to himself that it is better to die fighting than to lay down to an enemy. In spite of the governor's opposition Dr. J. J. Smith will be elected president pro tem of the senate and the Pie-maker would suggest to the Governor, in his senatorial candidacy and likewise in his railroad matter, that he desist from further fighting Dr. Smith's election. All the politics of the State are now centered in the election of a United States senator. The advocates of each of the three avowed aspirants are claiming everything in sight for their favorite candidate, which puts the contest in such a condition that the average politician need not believe one himself nor anything he hears. A strong advocate of Levi Ankney believes that he will have fifty-five votes on the first ballot and will steadily gain strength until elected, which will be very soon after the first ballot has been cast. The friends of Harold Preston are more or less sanguine over his prospects and declare that he has forty-four votes to start out with, which will be more than any other senatorial candidate will have, and they further declare that the conditions are ripe at present to bring about the election of Mr. Preston almost without opposition a few days after the legislature convenes. The friends of John L. Wilson are, perhaps, not quite so sanguine as to his election, but they are no less enthusiastic in the support of their candidate than the others are sanguine. They claim that Mr. Wilson will have between twenty-five and thirty votes, which votes he will hold until he himself voluntarily releases them, and then they will go to the man who will make the best political terms with Mr. Wilson, which, if true, will make Mr. Wilson the balance of power in the legislature and he will absolutely name the senator from this state.
Public sentiment throughout the state is much divided on the senatorial situation. Men who were ardent advocates of the election of John L. Wilson four years ago are now wildly supporting Ankeny or Preston, while many of the Ankeny voters have grown lukewarm toward Mr. Ankeny, believing that he will again be defeated and that his political machine will then go to pieces, leaving his followers beached high and dry, where they can neither assist him to float nor can they themselves float again soon. But despite this the odds seem to be in Mr. Ankeny's favor, and the Piemaker would not be surprised if he did not reach the goal of his ambition before the end of the coming legislature. However, Mr. Preston has many strong followers in the state, who will cling to him because he is being advocated by Gov. McBride, who is the chief spirit in the advocacy of the railroad commission bill. Mr. Preston has hitched his kite to the commission bill, which is a very popular measure, especially in Eastern Washington, which not if passed by the next legislature will be the subject matter two years from now for an upheaval in Eastern Washington like unto that of 1896, when that section of the State went mad over "free silver" and the Democrats captured every county over there.

Rumor has it that the wardenship of the State Penitentiary will soon be in the hands of a Republican, which Republican will come from Eastern Washington and will be none other than Isaac Brown, whose term of office as sheriff of Kittitas County will expire next January. If reports be true, and they are not doubted, Mr. Brown will take up his duties at the penitentiary as soon as he leaves his duties as sheriff of Kittitas County. It is further rumored that a great many other changes will be made among the various state institutions about that time. After the first of January the board of audit and control having decided upon this plan and having decided to make the changes immediately after the new year begins and at the time that the legislature is in session in order that the appointments might be then and there confirmed. The various appointments that are to be made by the Governor and his lieutenants have further been decided shall come from Eastern
Washington because it is from that section that the Governor expects more politically than from any other. It must not be forgotten that the Governor has already taken special care of Northwestern Washington, and therefore he can consistently give his appointments to Eastern Washington and completely snub both King and Pierce Counties because he will not get any assistance from either one of these counties even though Mr. Preston is elected to the United States senate.
Speaking about the senatorial situation the Times of this city claimed that Will H. Thompson, attorney for the Grea Northern and principal lobbyist for the election of Levi Ankeny to the United States senate, in an interview to the Spokesman-Review declared that George W. Jeffries, Louis Levy, Andrew Hemrich and W. H. Moore, all King County members of the legislature elect, would vote against Mr. Preston in the caucus. The allegation brought forth a storm of denials from each of those members, they declaring over their own signature that they intended to support Mr. Preston until released by him, which means that Seattle will go to Olympia with the solid delegation for Harold Preston, which in turn means that he is the strong candidate at present for senatorial honors.
Prior to leaving his home, North Yakima, for Washington City to be present at the opening of the last session of the 57th Congress, Hon. W. L. Jones denied the statement that he was a candidate in any sense of the word for the United States senate. That Mr. Jones may not be misunderstood the Pie-maker takes pleasure in quoting his exact words, given out for publication: "I am in no sense of the word a candidate for the senate. I am not in the hands of my friends, and am making no calculations upon being a candidate under any circumstances. It is probably true that should the legislature be deadlocked, and the assurance should

CURRENT COMMENT
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—The president has sent the following communication to a prominent citizen of Charleston, S. C. “Personal.”
“White House, Washington, Nov. 26, 1902.
‘My Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of November 10, and of one from Mr. _____, under date of November 11, in reference to the appointment of Dr. Crum as collector of the port of Charleston.
‘In your letter you make certain specific charges against Dr. Crum, pending to show his unfitness in several respects for the office sought. These charges are entitled to the utmost consideration from me, and I shall go over them carefully before taking any action. After making these charges you add, as further reason for opposition to him, that he is a colored man, and after reciting the misdeeds that followed carpet-bag rule and negro domination in South Carolina you said that ‘we have sworn never again to submit to the rule of the African, and that he impollinates as that of Dr. Crum to any such office forces, us to protest unanimously against this insult to the white blood,’ and you add that you understood me to say that I would never force a negro on such a community as yours, Mr. _____ puts the objection to color first, saying that, first, he is a colored man, and that itself ought to bar him from the office. In view of these last statements I think I ought to make it clear to you why I am concerned and pained by your making them, and what my attitude is as regards all such appointments.
"How any one could have gained the idea that I had said I would not appoint reputable and upright colored men to office, when objection was made to them solely on account of their color, I confess I am unable to understand. At the time of my visit to Charleston last spring I had made and since that time I have made a number of such appointments from several states in which there is a considerable colored population. For example, I made one such appointment in Mississippi and another in Alabama, shortly before my visit to Charleston. I and at that time appointed two colored men as judicial magistrates in the District of Columbia. I have recently announced another such appointment for New Orleans and have just made one for Pennsylvania.
GOOD MEN PREFERRED
"The great majority of my appointee men, North and South alike, it has been men of high character and good capacity should be my consistent policy in every to recognize colored men of good repute office.

"The great majority of my appointments in every state have been of white men. North and South alike, it has been my sedulous endeavor to appoint only men of high character and good capacity, whether white or black. But it is and should be my consistent policy in every state where their numbers warranted it to recognize colored men of good repute and standing in making appointments to office. These appointments of colored men have in no state made more than a small proportion of the total number of appointments. I am unable to see how I can accomplish this task. I am in South Carolina to the four most important positions in the state I have appointed three men and continued in office a fourth, all of them white men, three of them originally gold Democrats, two of them, as I am informed, the sons of Confederate soldiers. I have been informed by the citizens of charleston whom I have met that these four men represent a high grade of public service. I do not intend to appoint any unfit men to office. So far as I legitimately can, I shall endeavor to pay regard to the wishes and feelings of the people of each locality, but I cannot consent to take the position that the door of hope, the door of opportunity, is to be shut upon any good man, no matter how worthy, and to be held in the hands of any man, no matter how my convictions, be fundamentally wrong. If, as you hold, the great bulk of the colored people are not yet fit in point of character and influence to hold such positions, it seems to me that it is worth while putting a premium upon the effort among them to achieve the character and standing which will fit them.
QUESTION OF NEGRO DOMINATION.
"The question of negro domination or as well be asserted that when I bring about negro domination in that state of good character and standing to respond paying a salary twice as large as that of them as a director of the Buffalo expire "The question asked by you and Mr. Refer is simply whether it is to be declared man of color, no matter how upright an no matter how fair in his dealings with the office under our government.

"The question of negro domination does not enter into the matter at all. It might as well be asserted that when I was governor of New York I sought to bring about negro domination in that state because I appointed two colored men of good character and standing to responsible positions, one of them to a position paying a salary twice as large as that paid in the office under consideration—one of them as a director of the Buffalo exposition.
"The question raised by you and Mr. _____ in the statements to which I refer is simply whether it is to be declared that under no circumstances shall any man of color, no matter how upright and honest, no matter how good a citizen, no matter how fair in his dealings with all his fellows, be permitted to hold any office under our government. I certainly cannot assume such an attitude, and you should assume that you are not entitled to office, whether he looks at it from the standpoint of the true interest of the white man of the South or of the colored man of the South—not to speak of any other section of the Union. It seems to me that it is a good thing from every standpoint to let the colored man know that if he shows in a marked degree the qualities of good citizenship, the qualities which in a white man we feel are entitled to reward, then he will not be cut off from all hope of similar reward.
"Without any regard as to what my decision may be on the merits of this particular applicant for this particular place, I feel that I ought to let you know clearly my attitude on the far broader question raised by you and Mr."

come to me that I would be satisfactory to all the contending parties, and could be elected, I would not refuse to permit my name to be used. I expect a senator to be elected early in the session, and do not believe that there will be an opportunity for a "dark horse candidate." This paper has all along maintained that Mr. Jones would, at the proper time, if there were any indications of a deadlock, endeavor to be elected a United States senator. He would at once place himself "in the hands of his friends," that such honor might be thrust upon him. He now admits as much and says if he could be brought forward as a compromise candidate he would not refuse the honor, as much as to say for the "Good Lord's sake bring me forward." Of course he would not refuse to have his friends bring him forward if he sees an opportunity in getting what he in his heart of hearts is now an avowed as well as active candidate for, United States senator from Washington.
Hon. W. H. Thompson, representative elect from Kitsap County, and who, by the way, has been spoken of in connection with the speakership of the lower house for the next legislature, comments on the speakership situation in the Sydney Independent, which is Mr. Thompson's own paper, in the following strain: "Kitsap County may possibly secure the honor of having the next speaker of the lower house at Olympia. The Senate will be organized by electing Dr. Smith, of King County, president, and the contest for speaker, apparently, will narrow down to the representatives from Wahkliakum and Kitsap Counties. It is a little early to forecast results at this time."
Commenting on the results of the last election an exchange speaks as follows: "In the thirty-five counties of the State of Washington, just three were carried by the Democrats in the late election, and these by the smallest margins. They were Adams, with a majority of some 50, Okanogan with 25 and Ferry with 20. The Republican majority will reach probably 20,000. This certainly was a landslide." It reached the 26,000 mark, neighbor. No, it was not a "landslide," but only the regulation harvest from a productive soil.

Famine in China.
Parts of the great Chinese empire are undergoing another awful calamity in the shape of a famine with sickness combined, which are carrying off the natives by the thousands. Its first plague and then another that China is suffering from and all of them always manage to be the means of hundreds and thousands of the natives loosing their lives. If china is not a God forsaken country then its many misfortunes and calamities would seem to so indicate. In as much as no so called civilized country seldom, if ever, suffers from such scourges as those common to the "far East," there must be something more than a notion in our "Western civilization." As usual Christianity is sending necessary supplies for the relief of the sufferers.
Congress Convenes.
Next Monday will begin the closing heat of the 57th Congress. Before the final adjournment, March 4th, the president and his partisan advisers hope to see much needed legislation enacted. While the policy, from a partisan standpoint, of the 58th Congress, will not differ from that of the 57th Congress, nevertheless it will be many months before the 58th convenes and there are many important measures that should be settled before that time. The Cuban reciprocity measure should be settled at an early date. The Panama Canal matter should likewise be settled before the present Congress expires. The trust question should also be settled one way or the other. Finally the tariff revision proposition should also be put in ship shape to meet the 1904 campaign issues. Let Republicans buckle on their armors and do their duty and their whole duty like Republicans can do when they want to do.
out of the government service if the facts warrant such drastic measures. If what has been published be true, Mr. Kellar should be fired and fired hard, and at once if not sooner. For a government employee to conspire to defeat a candidate for Congress because such candidate refused to become a party to the biling of the government treasury out of large sums of money is, to say the least, contemptible, revolutionary, if not actually treasonable, and President Kellar and any of his associates guilty should be made to feel the effects of the strong arm of the law.
Mormonism Denounced.
Apostle Reed Smoot is promised a no less stormy time in case he is elected to the United States senate from Utah than that which befall his now famous predecessor, Brigham H. Roberts. The ministerial alliance of the Protestant and Catholic Churches of Salt Lake have taken decided actions against Mr. Smoot and it is very generally considered that their actions will be endorsed by similar alliances and religious bodies all over the country, and thereby prevent him from ever being seated, even though the legislature goes through the formality of electing him. Apostle Smoot may be correct in that he is not a polygamist, nevertheless he is the head of the Church that tolerates polygamy and that church has become more denant in the advocacy of its damnable creed since the territory has become a state. Our civilization radically differs from that advocated by Mormonism and we had as well admit a representative from a foreign country into the United States senate as the president of the Moron Church.

The large vote cast by the advocates of Socialism at the last general election is giving the old line party leaders of the country some food for thought as will be seen from the following compilation and comment: In two years the Socialist vote in the United States has risen from 97,000 to 250,000; so says the Socialist New York Worker. Other Socialist papers reckon the vote this year at 400,000. Taking the more conservative figures, it appears that the vote has more than doubled in two years; and if this process is repeated biennially, it is easy to see a Socialist President in the White House in the near future! Unfortunately for those who would like to see such a result, however, some of the political wiseacres recall that in "off years" and in apathetic campaigns the small parties always reap a harvest of votes that in more exciting times go to the two large parties
BROTHER IN BLACK
ROSLYN NOTES
The coal company at Roslyn operates the largest department store in Eastern Washington, and perhaps the largest in the state, with the exception of the Bon Marche in this city. D. S. Kenney, the general manager of the store, makes it a point to buy every thing in the way of produce that the farmers bring to the camp and by that means he has built up a large country patronage, which extends as far as Ellensburg and even down into Yakima County. The miners can buy almost as cheaply, if not just as cheap from the company store as they can in Seattle and the same is true of the farmers, which brings a large number of them each week to the camp. Thanksgiving, as is customary with the manager of the store, each employee was given a large turkey, and it generally requires between 2,000 and 2,500 birds to supply the store demand. A good strong breath of winter air has already whizzed over the camp and at present there are about six inches of snow on the ground. The weather is no colder, however, than is customary about Thanksgiving day and the snow is affording the bob skedders much merriment.
. . .
It can be said without fear of suc-cessful contradiction that Roslyn is the most active coal mine in the Northwest. Statistics will bear out the assertion that Roslyn produces more coal than any other mine in this section and at the same time carries more men on the pay roll than any other mining concern in Washington or Oregon. There are at present not less than 2,000 men on the pay roll at Roslyn, and very nearly 300 on the pay roll at Clealum, which is likewise a part of the company which operates at Roslyn.
Like Seattle, the Afro-Americans of Roslyn have gotten hold of more real estate this year than ever before. Many have bought here, while others have bought in other places.
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.
Missionaries in Africa.
The Voice of Mission, in speaking of the missionary work being done by the A. M. E. church in South Africa, says our work in South Africa is a condition, not a theory, a reality, not a dream. Its success or failure is absolute, the former means honor, progress and power to the A. M. E. church, while the latter means dishonor, disgrace and shame to the church and its membership. The leaders of the A. M. E. church are making hurculean efforts to establish missionary posts among the natives, not only in South Africa, but all over Africa or as much thereof as they can possibly cover. It is but natural that the natives, who are dark in complexion, be influenced more by missionaries of their own color than by white missionaries, and it would seem wise if in the future that the missionary work in Africa be done by colored missionary societies instead of white missionary societies. If the various Protestant churches should send educated colored folk from this country to Africa much more would be accomplished than has been in the past along this line and that is saying a great deal. Already the A. M. E. church has a bishop stationed in Africa and from reports sent out he is succeeding most admirably. Bishop L. J. Coppin, the resident bishop of Africa, is building churches, is building school houses, is building colleges and is doing a great work for the missionary cause among the natives of "darkest Africa," and all persons misSIONary inclination should lend a help ing hand to him even though he represents a different religious denomination than that which you believe in.
Stop Your Winking.
Bemoaning the failure of young colored men of finding lucrative positions in this country and eternally saying it is useless for them to aspire to such positions on account of their color, is the height of folly and be frowned upon. There seems to be no doubt but that a person with a dark skin finds it difficult to get employment in this country with industrial concerns, but that is no excuse for such young men not engaging in business enterprises themselves and thereby build up a concern, which will employ persons of their own color, and nationality, and they might at the same time do a little missionary work
TOPICS OF THE TOWN
The order of Chief Sullivan for all gambing and gaming devices to be moved from ground floor rooms and sent to upper stories of buildings is an excellent one if it will only be lived up to. Somehow or other here of late splendid orders have been frequently issued by the chief, but they soon become dead letters, thus leaving the general impression that there is a power behind the throne ever stronger than that held by Chief Sullivan. Seattle is certainly the most corrupt city in the West at present, and yet no efforts are being made by any one to give it a wholesome renovating. More murders, attempted murders and burglaries have been committed within the last 60 days in this city than perhaps ever before in the history of the city and amid all of this carnival of crime that has fouled the police seem to be absolutely powerless to in any way head it off. It does seem that it is high time for a moral wave to hit Seattle and send Rag Time Annie, Smooth Fingered Pete and Peddie Dog Jennie to their happy hunting grounds, if such there be in this world, and, if there is not, then send them any way.
Washin : Dirty Linen.
For the past two weeks the citizens of Seattle have been given quite an airing as to the laundry business conducted herein. Judging from what has already appeared in print the laundry business is a splendid one in which to rob its patrons. The leading hotels and barber shops, believing this to be true, have organized for mutual protection against the laundry trust and proposes to build a laundry which will compete with the laundry combine in this city, and even go a step further, and do outside work for much less than the laundries are now doing it. The employees in the various laundries believing that a big rake off was being harvested by the proprietors of steam laundries since the expose has been on tap, have taken a hand in the mix up and have recently formed a union with the intention, apparently,
and employ persons of a different color and nationality and thereby demonstrate to them that it is wrong to make one's qualifications to hold responsible positions dependent on the color of the skin or the nationality of the applicant. It is the duty of every young colored person in this country to select for him or herself some calling in life in which they can shine just as brightly, if not more so, than any one else and when they will have done that they will find it a great deal easier to get positions of trust and honor. When a colored man can say I can do this or that better than the man you have employed and stand ready to prove it and make good his allegation, he will get employment. The students of the Booker Washington Tuskegee School are proving this beyond a question of doubt and such must become common throughout this country before the colored men can expect to stand even on a footing with their white competitors.
. . .
TANNER'S COMPETITOR.
Bishop Tanner's son, whose fame is world-wide as a painter of biblical scenes, and whose works are attracting attention as well as most favorable comment, sketches of which appear monthly in the Ladies Home Journal, demonstrates the fact that the colored man has a most fertile imagination when once he confines it to certain channels. For a while Mr. Tanner was without a competitor of his own race and nationality, but recently Mr. Geo. E. Colby has completed a masterpiece in painting, entitled The Emancipation, which is attracting a vast amount of attention and receiving much favorable comment among the painters and artists of the old world. It is a most beautiful scene and it has taken him ten years to produce it, but the minute that it was produced and the final touches placed thereon, it meant a fortune for its producer. Mr. Colby has a bright future before him and his work will doubtless be as highly received as that of Mr. Tanner's.

Notwithstanding the fact that there are more Afro-Americans in this city than ever before there seems to be fewer social gatherings among them than ever before. Will some one please explain.
PRICE FIVE CENTS
of raising the scale of wages and thereby get some of the rake off. This, however, the laundry combine would not stand for and absolutely refuse to divide up their spoils with anyone, and they, therefore, have countered the union move by discharging all union men from their respective places of business. It will now be in order for union laundry help to organize a laundry institution of their own and underbid the other two combines for the public's work, and get the biz. If only a triple laundry combine can be put on foot in this city perhaps then the citizens can get their work done at a reasonable rate.
. . .
Boys and Revolvers.
Leslie LeRoy Hughes, a nine year old boy, at York Station, on the Renton street car line, instantly killed himself last Monday evening, not intentionally but accidentally. Young Hughes and two other associates of like age were out target practising with a twenty-two caller revolver. One of the cartridges failed to explode when the hammer had struck it, and so he looked down the barrel of the revolver to see what was the trouble, when it immediately exploded and he fell instantly dead, without uttering a word. Nothing is more lamentable than such an accident as the above, and it but proves what has been so often said, that it is criminally careless on the part of parents or guardians to allow boys of such tender years to have revolvers when out at play, or any other time that matter. A boy at play has no more use for a revolver than he has for a stick of dynamite with a burning fuse attached to them. Too many boys in this country strut about with revolvers in their hands; too many men carry revolvers around in their pockets as though they were among savages or wild beasts; too many revolvers are sold to Tom, Dick and Harry, and in short too many revolvers are carried and carelessly used and finally too many gun plays are made for the good of the community, and if the laws regulating such things were more rigidly enforced there would be fewer accidents like Leroy Hughes and fewer murders and attempted murders for our courts to deal with. There is no more need of a man carrying a gun in Seattle, especially in the day time, than there is of him carrying a cannon and young boys found playing with revolvers should be officially chastised and their parents personally held responsible for any damage they do.

Prosecuting Attorney elect W. T. Scott has named as his deputies E. E. Todd as criminal deputy; E. C. Kretie as justice court deputy and D. C. Conover as tax deputy. Mr. Scott is to be congratulated on his selection. For the place given Mr. Conover a number of applicants beseeched Mr. Scott's consideration, but Mr. Conover knocked the prize and he will especially have much to give thanks for next Thursday our National day of thanksgiving. No further recommendations will be made by Mr. Scott until he takes charge of the office, which will be about the 12th of January next. The Seattle Republican will issue about the 20th of December one of the neatest holiday numbers sent out from Seattle this year. Already we have 7,000 copies of the number contracted for and are taking orders every day. If you are interested in this number we would be pleased to hear from you.
Two Sudden Deaths.
Two very conspicuous characters in the affairs of this city suddenly died last Tuesday in the persons of Junius Rochester and Col. Wm. E. McKee. Both of these men have been residents of Seattle for the past twelve or fourteen year and are well known to everybody living in the city. For a time Mr. Rochester took an active part in the political affairs of this city and county, but for the past two years he has been a professor in the State University. Though he has been suffering from ill health for quite a while yet it was not thought even by his relatives that his malady would prove fatal. He suffered from a severe chill Monday night and never rallied from its effects and died early in the day Tuesday. Col. McKee was quite conspicuous in bar room circles, he having owned and operated one of the largest institutions of its kind in the city. Financial reverses have been following thick and fast at his door here of late, and brought on him a cloud of despondency which, perhaps, was the cause of his unexpected death. He died little sitting in a chair in a well known resort.
Without any intention of throwing schools. Since one invaluable result boquets at ourselves, we note the fact of education is a taste for good read- that both the daily and weekly papering, the purchase by the people of

Editor Clayson occasionally hits the nail on the head in his Patriarch, and when he does do so he hits it alfiredly hard.
Gorman is being advocated for the democratic nomination for president. Every day here of late some forgotten fossil is being resurrected.
Some of our leading men are the possessors of "untold wealth," but they are because they managed to dodge the tax assessor last year.
The fascinating game of ping pong is now giving way to that of puff puff. The latter should have a good run in Washington City this winter.
Letter Carrier Kellar, who got Loud in California, stands a good show to get good, as he has wilfully broken the Civil Service rules and may be let out.
Since Miss Pearl Conway was run over by a reckless driver, forty-one teamsters have been arrested and fined for fast driving. Good thing; push it along.
From a political standpoint Tom L. Johnson, Ohio's presidential aspirant, a few weeks ago, can now soliloquize with himself and dolefully repeat. "I have seen better days."
If our Indian system is not a curse it certainly is not a blessing. And to a man up a tree it seems to be only a system for money making on the part of those who are connected with it.
"Holiday numbers" seem to be quite the order of the day among the journalists of the Northwest and The Seattle Republican sees no reason why it should not be in the swim, and it will be.
Whats the use of Pinkwhiskered Jim Ham wasting wind denying that he has given up Seattle as a residence. Whether he has or not is of no consequence to Seattle and certainly Seattle has not lost very much if he has.
Senator Turner declared before the election that "Gov. McBride was headed for the Democratic party." We do not believe that for Gov. McBride goes after bigger game than can be found in the Democratic woods of this State.
And now that there will be a Hearst and likewist a Coffin in the 58th Congress, if the same kind of practices are indulged in that Congress as were in the 57th, the members thereof will be fully prepared to take care of their own dead.
Considering that there are but 200,000 Quaker worshippers in the United States, no religious sect in the whole country can boast of a more widespread and wholesome influence among our best citizens, than that exerted by the Quakers.
President Elliot, of Harvard University, is rushing into print on a good many subjects here of late. Is it possible that that famous institution of learning is bidding for a lot of cheap newspaper advertising through its talkative president?
Like David B. Hill, after the last election Senator Turner hastened to inform an expectant public, "I am a Democrat still." There is no doubt of that and for the next five years he is going to be very still Democrat because there will be nothing doing in Democratic circles.
Democrats tell us of a surprise in store for the Republican party at the next general election. If the surprise is going to be similar to the surprise of 1896, 1900 and that which just a few days ago was administered, then the Republicans have no objection to being again surprised.
Socialism, from a political standpoint, is said to be growing. Like all other kinds of politicalisms whose chief aim and object for existence are only to be "against the government," it will grow and flourish for a season and then will go the ways of the world as has Populism and all similar isms.
Mascagni is mastaken, when he thinks Americans do not appreciate genius, for have not the Americans, for lo these many years, appreciated beyond degree the Italian organ grinder and his monkey? Despite the fact that Mascagni will cancel all of his engagements in this country, Italian music will still be with us.
Without any intention of throwing boquets at ourself, we note the fact that both the daily and weekly papers
of the Northwest either handle our Political-Potie prognastics directly or rehash them. If you are fair you will admit that the Seattle Republican's political predictions are second to none other in the State.
So accustomed have the Mississippi Caucasians become of tying up "coons" to trees for their sportsmen to shoot to death, that they believed the president would enjoy shooting a bear that they had tied up for that purpose and thereby prove his prowess as a Mississippi jungle hunter, but not so, as the president is made of sterner stuff.
Speaker Henderson is of the opinion that the Constitution must be amended before trusts can be suppressed. It is too bad that four or five men can so terrorize the entire country that it requires a Constitutional amendment in order to check them. The much boasted independence of the citizens of this country seems to have forgotten its cunning.
President John Mitchell, according to Democratic papers only, was more than a match for Attorney Wayne McVeigh. We do not doubt it and we do not doubt it for the very reason that at one time Wayne McVeigh left the Republican party and advocated Democracy, and any man that will do that will find a match in most any old man he meets.
A Tacoma paper has been reading the riot act to the Tacoma people who came to the Bon Marche's grand opening. Just as if those people did not want to see something nice occasionally. Certainly Seattleites would not have gone to an opening in Tacoma because an opening there would have been so small that there would have been nothing to it.
Because Senator Harris of Kansas bought a pair of shoes in Europe for less money than he could have bought the same shoes in Massachusetts, where they were made, he is heart and soul against a protective tariff. Perhaps the senator got his shoes at a second hand store and the protective idea never took the "three ball" proposition into consideration.
"Foster too foxy" is a Times headline, which is followed by he will neither affirm or deny the Foster-Wilson agreement of 1899. If the assertion be true he is not too foxy, but too foolish. Mr. Foster has rendered himself ridiculous and is a laughing stock all over the country. No wonder the men most responsible for his election refuse to even speak to him and that, too, among his own townsman.
We learn from the Colafx Gazette that Rag Time Annie and Smooth Fingered Pete will do the cake walk from that city after the first of January. If some of the larger cities that prosper by the assistance of such wretches would likewise administer a cake walk case to them there would be fewer murder trials and fewer persons occupying cells in murderer's row than are to be found in Seattle at present.
Below space is given to a few utterances from President Elliot, of Harvard University, which, to say the least, are almost remarkable. For President Elliot to all but tacitly admit that education and its supposed refining influences is an absolute failure so far as making humanity better is an admission that this country is on the verge of a revolution and a general upheaval.
"For more than two generations we have been struggling with the barbarous vice of drunkenness, but have not yet discovered a successful method of dealing with it. The legislation of the States has been variable and in moral significance uncertain.
"In some the States of the Union we have been depending on prohibitory legislation, but the intelligence of the people has been insufficient either to enforce such legislation or to substitute better.
"The persistence of gambling in the United States is another disappointing thing to the advocates of popular education, for gambling is an extraordinarily unintelligent form of pleasurable excitement. It is a prevalent vice among all savage people, but one which a moderate cultivation of the intelligence, a very little foresight, and the lease sense of responsibility should be sufficient to eradicate.
"It must be confessed that the results of universal suffrage are not in all respects what we should have expected from a people supposed to be prepared at school for an intelligent exercise of suffrage. We have discovered from actual observation that universal suffrage often produces bad government, especially in large cities.
"It is a reproach to popular education that the gravest crimes of violence are committed in great number all over the United States, in the older States as well as in the new, by individuals and by mobs, and with a large measure of impunity. The population produces a considerable number of burglars, robbers, rioters, lynchers and murderers, and is not intelligent enough either to suppress or to exterminate these criminals.
"The nature of the daily reading matter supplied to the American public, too, affords much ground for discouragement in regard to the results thus far obtained, by the common
thousands of tons of ephemeral reading matter which is not good in either form or substance, shows that one great end of popular education has not been attained.
"A similar unfavorable inference concerning popular education, may be drawn from the quality of the popular theatres of today. The popular taste is for trivial spectacles, burlesque, vulgar vaudeville, extravaganza, and melodrama, and the stage-often presents to unmoved audiences scenes and situations of an unwholesome sort.
"Americans are curiously subject to medical delusions; because they easily fall victims to that commonest of fallacies post hoc, ergo propter hoc. They are the greatest consumers of patent medicines in the known world, and

"That labor strikes should occur more and more frequently and be more and more widespread has been another serious disappointment in regard to the outcome of popular education. As we have all seen lately, the strike is often resorted to for reasons not made public, or, at least, not made public until after the strike has taken place.

Mr. J. H. Ryan is spending Thanksgiving with his family in Spokane.
A Thanksgiving concert was given at the Mt. Zion Baptist church Thursday evening.
Invitations are out for a musical at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Cayton, 518 Fourteenth Avenue north for this (Friday) evening.
Mr. John F. Cragwell is now reported to be the sole proprietor of four barber shops in this city, which perhaps represents an investment of $5,000.
Madam Rumor has it that a joint stock company is being talked of for the purpose of putting on foot a weekly paper. Those said to be connected with the prospective enterprise are J. F. Cragwell, A. k. Black, Rev. S. S. Freeman, Mr. Reed and Mr. Presto. With such men behind a paper it ought to be a success from the very start.

The various Protestant churches of this city united in holding a union meeting Thanksgiving day in the Protestant Methodist church. The churches participating in the meeting were, Plymouth Congregational First Presbyterian, First Methodist, First Baptist and the First Methodist Protestant, Dr. M. A. Matthews, of the First Presbyterian, was the speaker of the occasion and the other services were conducted by the Revs. E. M. Randall, W. H. G. Temple and T. P. Revill. The various Episcopal churches of the city likewise held services, but in their respective parishes.
The Masonic entertainment last Monday was well attended. The literary program was highly commendable. Every member, was a success and the piano solos on the part of the young Misses, the violin solo on the part of Master Purnell as well as the harmonican solo on the part of Mrs. Anderson and the vocal solo on the part of Mr. Handcocke were all deserving of much praise. Master Hayden Richardson recited most excellently, as did Miss Freeman. More such entertainments would not be a bad thing for the Atro-Americans of this city.
AMUSEMENTS
"A Little Outcast," under the management of E. J. Carpenter, comes to the Third Avenue Theatre next week in a blaze of agony. It is the big hit of the season, and has some novel features never before produced on the American stage, making it necessary to carry tons of electrical appliances and properties. The big spectacle of the production, one which is seen in all its vivid picturesqueness, is the fire scene. A magnificent panoramic view of New York harbor is given, with the great buildings visible from the Battery, all illuminated with electric lights. Over six hundred (600) yards of silk are used in this scene to give a realistic view o. waves of fire, and the general effect is bewildering in its vivid intensity.
SHAKESPEARE'S PLAYS
Beginning Sunday night Mr. Charles D. Herman and the Warde Company, will offer a Shakespearian repertoire for next week at the Seattle Theatre that should please the public immensely. On Sunday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights "Macbeth" will be played. Monday night and Saturday matinee "Othello" will be repeated. Thursday night will see a repetition of "The Lion's Mouth," and Thursday night the great love tragedy, "Romeo and Juliet," will be seen. Never in the history of Seattle have so many of Shakespeare's plays been presented in one week, and for the lovers of the great playwright, the coming week will prove a veritable treat. All the scenery used in these plays is carried with the company, and those who have seen the productions of last week and this know that better scenery or handsome costumes have never been seen here. In addition to the regular members of the company, many extra people have
been engaged who will assist in making each play a marvel of completeness. Next week will be Mr. Herman's last appearance here for a time, as he will play the large Eastern cities for several seasons to come.
Jefferson in "Rip Van Winkle."
Thomas Jefferson, who appeared last season and scored a most decided hit before large audiences, made up of our best people, will return once more in that grand old play "Rip Van Winkle."
In these days when the name of Jefferson is mentioned in connection with the stage, the public anticipate a treat. And the lovers of pure, clean and whishess plays turn out in force to greet them. Such is said to be the experience of Mr. Thomas Jefferson, who is the son of Joseph Jefferson, and who will be seen here again on December 4, 5 and 6 at the Grand as Rip, the play that has made the name of Jefferson a household word throughout the universe.
"Alphonse and Gaston."
Every indication points to the fact that "those odd fellows," Mathews and Ashley, in that delightful musical comedy, "Alphonse and Gaston," will give us an engagement of unusual interest and merit.
"Alphonse and Gaston," which opens at the Grand this evening for four nights, is from the facile pen of Mr. Frank Tannheh, and abounds in mirth and comedy that has transported thousands of people from the dolrums into brightness and laughter. It is clean, wholesome and free from that double entendre that characterizes many of the so-called comedies of the day. The lines are snappy, witty and bright. Its situations pliant, without being vulgar. The company, we are told, is an exceptionally strong one, its members being among the best and widely known comedians of the time.

Smashed Lily Whitism.
Several weeks ago when United States District Attorney Vaughan, of Alabama, was removed from office by the President, it was believed that the "Lily White" movement of the Republican party in the Southern States would be abandoned; but up to the present time it seems to have spread considerably. No formal statement followed the President's action, but it was generally interpreted as meaning that the Administration did not favor such a movement. On Monday of last week the President removed another "Lily White" leader, Julian H. Bingham, Collector of Internal Revenue for Alabama, and appointed Joseph A. Thompson, who fought for the admission of the Negro delegates from Macon County after they had been excluded from the late State Convention in Alabama. It now remains to be seen whether this fraction of the party will thrive. Mr. Bingham, it is said, was conspicuous in the attempts to exclude the blacks from the councils of the party, even when entirely fitted by education and character to take part. Following the removal of Mr. Bingham came a statement from Postmaster-General Payne, which had been submitted to the President before being made public. It is the first formal announcement of the Administration's position on the "Lily White" movement.—I Literary Digest.
T. Thomas Fortune
President Roosevelt, who has been dealing death blows to "Lily Whitism" in the South, owing to its antagonism of the participation of the Negro in Republican politics, has been doing the right thing by the Negro in appointing the talented T. Thomas Fortune, editor of the New York Age one of the ablest Afro-American journalistic advocates in this country, as special agent of the U. S. Treasury to investigate the industrial conditions or the Philippine islands, the Hawaiian islands and the recent insular possessions acquired by the United States in other waters. No abler or better qualified man in the whole country could be found for this work than Mr. Fortune and an unbiased and unprejudiced report can be looked for when one is forthcoming. In connection with the Age Mr. Fortune has contributed regularly to the New York Tribune, which has been a source of much revenue to him.
