Seattle Republican

The SEATTLE REPUBLICAN POLITICAL POT - PIE VOL.1X.NO.29 If rumors be true, Senator Foster has provided unusually liberally for the Pierce County legislative delegation in order that it can meet weekly for consultation. Before the senator leet for Washington City he went to the proprietor of the Hotel Tacoma and told him that he would stand for "fifteen meals" each week for the delegation, but, under no circumstances for a single meal more than that. That is to say, the delegation, which is composed of fifteen members, is to meet every Saturday and each of these is to be fed at Senator Foster's expense on that occasion. If, in case any one of them happens to be an outsider then those present can invite an outsider to be with them and fill the place of the absent one. The generosity of Senator Foster was so liberal and unexpected that the proprietor of the hotel almost fell dead from heart disease at the announcement. Just to think, Senator Foster had made provisions for fifteen meals a week for six weeks, amounting all told to not less than $42.00, for the purpose of cultivating a more friendly spirit with the members of the legislature-elect is unprecedented and is certainly worthy of universal comment. That amount of money is not to be found every day, and when a United States senator willingly gives up that amount, and is not a candidate, he is certainly the most liberal benefactor to struggling humanity that is anywhere to be found in all of the wild and woolly West. Long live Senator Addison G. Foster and his unbounded political liberality. . . . There comes a story from Washington City to the ffect that Hon. John L. Wilson is to quit Spokane and move to Seattle for the express purpose of receiving the support of the railroad people for United States senator in 1905. When seen one day this week Mr. Wilson laughed at the statement, and declared it but another pipe dream of Col. Blethen, who is always getting an inside tip on something that never happens. However, the Piemaker is of the opinion that no one is a better right nor a more reasona-cuse to move to Seattle than Wilson, who has investments conservatively valued at and which investments need special attention at all times, is said without disparagement recent management of the R 1. While Mr. Wilson may never move to Seattle, nevertheless, he is going to be an important factor in the coming senatorial fight and the railroads and the politicians will find him a very useful man to tie up with for future political use. If Mr. Wilson should support McBride, the probabilities are that McBride will win his fight, but if he should oppose Gov. McBride the probabilities are equally strong that McBride will lose his fight, which places Mr. Wilson in the position of being able to dictate his own terms to the political maneuverers of this state. . . . Speaking about the senatorial situation and remembering what has already been published concerning the Wilson-Foster agreement, which was entered into some four years ago, the Tacoma News quotes Senator Foster as follows concerning that agreement: "Look here!" exclaimed the Tacoma senator, when the subject of paramount interest in his state was broached, "I will talk about anything else, but I have nothing to say about the senatorial contest. The people out there know all about that, they know all about that agreement between Wilson and myself, and they don't need any information from me. No, sir, not even a word for your own personal information. The fight is anybody's at this time; there is no indication as to who will be elected." Ah, no, Senator Foster is not interested in who will win the next fight, but he was very much interested in who would win the last fight. He got his and the senatorial question ceased to be of any interest to him, not even of enough interest to him to stick to his agreement in a single instance. Such men are not only poor politicians, but are politicians that are soon ripe and equally soon rotten. . . . Prior to the last election the Seattle Republican predicted that Congressman Cushman would run ahead of his ticket, owing to the popularity he had gained in the last congress, and likewise owing to the excellent speech that he made in the last state convention. According to the official returns Congressman Cushman received 59,366 votes, Congressman Jones 59,095, while Congressman Humphrey received 58,323, and Judge Hadly 59,017. It will thus be seen that Cushman, who ran behind his ticket, both four and two years ago, Historical Society CURRENT COMMENT Mrs. Grant Dead. and the European carrier but it is has steadily grown in political favor until he has reached the top of the ladder and leads his ticket. When he made a fight in congress against Speaker Henderson, it was hinted that he had injured himself, but the subsequent vote did not bear out the pre-diction, but rather showed that he had strengthened himself with his constituents. --- The Democratic vote was as follows: Geo. F. Cotterill 34,315, Frank B. Cole 32,968, Mr. Holcomb 32,118, while Judge Reavis received 32,544. It will thus be seen that the political sentiment of this state is overwhelmingly Republican. None of the lesser parties showed any great amount of gain, save and except the Socialist ticket. The three Prohibition candidates received respectively 1785, 1774 and 1762, while the Socialist received on an average of 4,631 votes each. Their highest candidate, Thomas Neill who ran for supreme judge, received 4,739 votes. Summing up the entire vote the figures show the Republican candidates received an aggregate majority of 10,454 over the combined op position vote and 26,127 over the Democratic vote. . . . The question has been frequently asked since last Saturday, "Will the call of a grand jury on the part of Judge Bell have any political effect?" The Ple-maker is of the opinion that it is probematical. It may and it may not, but he has every reason to believe that it will, unless he misses his guess. If it does, it will certainly mean the ultimate defeat of Tom Humes for any office and it may go further and defeat the aspirations of many others who have taken their political inspirations from Mr. Humes. If the grand jury does not give this city and county a white wash some ugly political stories will be the result of its investigations. It may not criminally connect any one with the stories, but they will reflect very severely on the characters of some men, who now stand, apparently, par excellent in the community. Last Sunday night the wife of one of America's most distinguished citizens passed away. Mrs. U. S. Grant, whose husband was the United State's greatest general and ranked favorably with the world's greatest military geniuses, and who was at one time the chief executive of this country, and at a time when it required a man of iron as was U. S. Grant to manage the affairs of state, which was then in a most topsy turvy condition, was at his side during all of those dark and dreary days. It is wholly unnecessary in this connection to eulogize Gen. Grant, for he has been pronounced by the world's greatest thinkers as one of the profound men of this country. Amid all of his greatness there was one grand supporter always near him and that was his noble wife, who so recently passed away. At the time of her death, Mrs. Grant was about 75 years of age. The surviving members of her immediate family, with the exception of her son, Gen. F. D. Grant, were with her at the time. Venezuela Bombarded. Unexpectedly "war powder" has been burned again on the American continent and Uncle Sam did not do it. The British and German governments, having legitimate financial claims against the Venezuelan government and those claims having been refused payment by the Venezuelans, her ports were declared closed, her navy destroyed and finally her leading coast town bombarded by the gunboats of both England and Germany. Thus far in the embriglio the United States has taken no part, but has pacifically watched the proceedings, evidently not thinking that the Monroe Doctrine was sufficiently encroached upon to warrant her preventing the further devastation of the little republic. On this point, however, public opinion in this country is much divided. It is not believed by the general public that our government is showing the proper spirit in not preventing those European powers from bombarding the Venezuelan forts, and yet Venezuela has not, until recently, asked any intervention on the part of the United States. If what has been purported to be the facts about the Monroe Doctrine be true then the United States should not have waited for Venezuela to seek her assistance, but she should have stood between the little republic SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1902 For some reason the contest for speakership in the house of representatives of the eight legislature of this state has been permitted to lag. Each of the candidates is perhaps making a splendid still hunt for it, but if they are, they are certainly keeping their own counsel, and not allowing the newspapers to get a tip as to their actions. One thing, however, is certain, King county will not have a candidate for the speakership. This has been decided on by the delegation at the request of Senator Preston. Mr. Gleason would have made an admirable presiding officer and, owing to past experience, would have received a warm support, not only in King county, but in other parts of the state, but the Preston influence prevented him from entering the race. It is surmised, however, that Mr. Thompson of Kitsap county is still a prominent factor in the fight, but the odds, it would appear, favor the election of Hon. J. G. Megler of Wahkiakum. . . . Hon. E. C. Hughes is still in Washington City lobbying for the creation of his judgement, which he thinks he has a cinch on if it is ever created Dirty Dog Fight. The moral status of this city is certainly at obt tide when such disgraced scenes as took place at the Seattle theatre last Monday evening are permitted to transpire in an upstown play house and one which caters solely to the respectable citizens for patronage. The dirty pug fight which was pulled off last Monday evening which resulted in a free for all fight with every one present could only be expected to occur in a semi-barbarian country where brutality plays the leading role among the inhabitants. Despite the fact that a score or more policemen were present no effort was made by them to stop the fight until had almost reached the riot stage and much bloodshed threatened. Talk about your superior Anglo-Saxon civilization of the twentieth century but here it is in all its glory. 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 the European powers, but insisting at all times that Venezuela pay her honest debts and liquidate her government obligations. While considerable damage has already been done no lives have been lost, and it is hoped that the trouble is at an end, for it cannot proceed much further without involving the United States, which might mean war with both England and Germany. . . . An Indian Uprising. And now comes the scare headed report from Dawson City to the effect that the Hiuako Indians have taken to the warpath and are devastating the country thereabouts. According to the report one store has already been robbed and the owner murdered and other mischief is being perpetrated. That this is another Alaska fish story is more than probable for the Indians in Alaska, nor anywhere else in this country, will ever again take to the warpath, because there are not enough of them at any one place to do any material harm to the citizens if they did, and certainly could do the Alaska miners no greater harm than the miners could and would do them in a few days after an outbreak had become general. There are doubtless not enough Indians in and about White Horse or Selkirk, nor through that entire section of Alaska to more than cause a flurry of excitement, even if they were on the warpath and even if they did kill one or two persons, they would be suppressed before any great amount of damage could be done and, therefore, all this talk of Indian uprising at this stage of civilization is both idle and likewise foolish. False Public Economy It is learned from Washington City that there will be no "ship subsidy" legislation so far as the present session of congress is concerned. The deferring of this ship subsidy legislation is a matter of spite work on the part of both Democratic and disgusted politicians, because they believe that it will in some way further the political opportunities of Mark Hanna. It has been Mr. Hanna, who has fathered this measure ever since it was first introduced into congress and, inasmuch as the entire country recognized it as a judicious measure, the politicians will not let it become a law lest Mr. Hanna reaps many political rewards therefrom. Thus are good and essential measures for the benefit of the general public woefully killed for fear some one man may get more public and political notoriety from its passage than an other. Politics is fast supplanting patriotism as will be seen from the above statement. Men elected to congress conspire to defeat even a patriotic measure rather than to see some one man get more prominence from its passage than they. When the lawmakers of any country so far forget their country's interest to become conniving and scheming politicians, then the country is rapidly drifting into a most deplorable political condition and the sooner the halt is called the better for the entire country. ITEMS OF INTEREST ... An idle brother of the Prince of Wales has been offered a partnership in a stock brokers firm with a salary of $15,000 a year. It is understood that the young prince will only be useful to the concern as a bait for snobs as he has neither business capacity nor experience. King Edward does not approve of it and if the young prince accepts the offer in spite of King Edward, the royal snobs of London will not deal with the firm for fear of displeasure to the king. It is reported that Emperor William's favorite jewel is a mascot ring of his ancestors. The legend connected with the ring is, "once a frog entered the chamber of Elector John of Brandenburg one day and placed a little stone on the bed and then disappeared mysteriously." The stone was carefully preserved by the family and the father of Frederick the Great had it set in a ring and since that time the ring has always been worn by the head of the house as a sort of mascot. Alfred Beit, a Kaffir king, is now building a great block of offices on a eighty-year lease in the city of London, which will concentrate all the big South African companies under one roof. The purchased money, construction, ground rent and maintenance of the building, are estimated at $2,900,000, while the investment will return to the Biet estate $25,000,000. The offer of William A. Clark, the multo-millionaire of Meitana, to give $1,000,000 to the first male heir coming to the home of his three married children, resulted in his son William A. Clark, Jr., winning the prize. His wife, who at one time was a typewriter in that city, gave birth to a son December 1st, who has been christened William A. Clark, third, and therefore is entitled and will inherit the grand'ather's extra million dollars because he is a boy. Aside from this sum it is estimated that if Mr. Clark's estate gets no richer than it is at present the boy will inherit $150,000,000 more. "Uncle Sydney Clark," the inventor of the paper collar, who is now 93 years old, and who, during his lifetime, has invented many useful things is now at work on a spring automobile. He lives at Black River, Wis., and is in fairly good health for his years. It is, however, thought that he will not live to complete his new idea. Though he has turned out many useful inventions he is still a man of moderate means. A suit now pending before the supreme court of England will be watched with much interest on both sides of the water. A railway company has sued the trades union of London for $135,000 damages for alleged injuries to its business, brought on by the trades union which ordered the strike on the road in 1900. If the company succeeds in getting damages in any amount it will mean that trades unions will order strikes in any plant or concern in which they are working at their own financial risk. When congress passed the pension appropriation bill, a few days ago, cearrying more than $137,000,000, the same being done in twelve minutes, it might be said that the government appropriated money to its old soldiers at the rate of $11,000,000 per minute. The age at which girls can marry in Turkestan has been raised from ten and twelve to fourteen and upward. It is estimated that 75 per cent. of the girls who marry under the age of twelve die before they are twenty, and for that reason the Russian government has decided to legally regulate the marrying age. The Vienna medical society is much concerned over a young woman in that city who is reported to have a musical heart. The sounds begin with a very high note which becomes lower and softer and then rises again. The doctors attribute the phenomenon to a strained sinew or nerve, or to malformation of the valves. A man in Munich, Ind., recently, while asleep dreamt that he was taken before a court and sentenced to death. His wife who was near him for some reason, put her hand on his shoulder, and he awoke and at once began to BROTHER IN BLACK relate to her his most marvelous dream, which being finished, he died immediately of heart paralysis. He was reported to be a man of highly nervous temperament. A man was asked to invest some money in an insurance company. He saw in the list of directors such names as Chaucey M. Depew, John Jacob Astor, Benjamin F. Tracy, Levi P. Morton. He invested $00,000. The insurance company is now dead. He has lost his money and is now suing the directors to recover it. Several prominent men have already paid him $2,000 each, realizing that they were duped in allowing the use of their names. Less than 1,000,000 wage-earners were employed in American manufactures fifty years ago. Today approximately 6,000,000 are so employed. Meanwhile the 15,000,000 of people maintained by farming half a century ago have grown to 40,000,000—an enormous increase in itself, though relatively less than the increase in other industries. Within the same fifty-year period the products of agriculture have increased in annual value from $1,600,000 to $4,700,000,000, or not quite three-fold. The concurrent increase in the value of manufacturing products was from a little more than $1,000,000,000 in 1850 to a little more than $13,000,000,000 in 1900—a twelve-fold increase. Yet the American farmer and planter, with their grain, meat, provisions and cotton, are still the two main pillars of national prosperity. They support but one-half the people, but they still furnish two-thirds of all our exports. From 1898 to 1902 inclusive our total exports were valued at $6,700,000,000. Of this total our farms contributed $4,270,000,000, or $7 out of every $11 worth. Our factories contributed to the same total $1,880,000,000—only $3 out of every $11 worth. Last year 124,542 men applied for enlistment in the United States army of whom only 37,461, or 30 per cent. were accepted. The army standard maintained in this country is unquestionably the highest in the world. Xmas eve musical will be given at the Old Masonic Hall, corner Pike and Second avenue. Promises to be a social event. Mrs. Ben Williams and W. M. White are in charge of the entertainment. Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, minister to Liberia, is said to be in trouble. It is learned from late reports from there that he perhaps fatally shot Thomas J. R. Falkner, an engineer and electrician, who formerly lived in Brooklyn, N. Y, but who went to Morovia to install a telephone system in that city. Serious charges have been filed with the president against Dr. Crossland, and even it transpires that he shot Falkner in self defense he is in for a diplomatic investigation. . . . Mississippi prison officials announce that under the system of working the prisoners on state farms, instead of leasing them, the state has made a profit of $101,432.09 in six months. How the balance will stand when the full crop is garnered is, of course, another question. This is but slavery in another form, for only Negroes are worked on those farms, the white convicts be kept within the walls where humane treatment is always accorded them, which is never true of the colored prisoners in the state of Mississippi. Touching the political conditions now existing in Alabama, it has been given out that President Roosevelt has designated Joseph O. Thompson, C. H. Scott and Wm. F. Aldrich to constitute a board of referees to make political recommendations and to pass upon applicants for federal positions in and from that state. The above named referees have consistently and persistently opposed what is now termed the "Lilly White" Republicans of that state and favor the regular Republican party made up and composed of both white and black voters. This movement on the part of the president prompted the colored politicians of the state to call a state convention for the purpose of reorganizing the Republican party, and in this above committee of referees stand at the head. The Negro Surging to the Front. On the heels of the announcement made by President Roosevelt, that he would in no case distinguish against TOPICS OF THE TOWN Councilman Frank P. Mullen may have meant it as a huge joke when he introduced a bill in the council offering a reward of $300 to the policeman bringing the dead body of a burglar to the headquarters, but jokes occasionally become serious. There is not the slightest probability of the bill ever being passed, but should it become a law the council would soon find that they had laid the foundation for the bankruptcy of the city treasury, for every cop on the force would vie with each other in seeing how many extra $300 he could earn during the month. His salary would be a mere bagatelle in comparison to his extras. It would be a picnic for the undertakers and cemetery sextons, and both good and bad citizens might nightly fall by the wayside for the sake of $300. Better reconsider your bill, Mr. Mullen, or you might get yourself in a pack of trouble. Sambo's Mule Skin. Speaking about giving rewards to policemen for the dead bodies of burglars, reminds the writer of a Virginia incident that was once planted to him. On a certain plantation, which abounded in Negroes and mules, both of which frequently died, and especially the latter, the owner, a Southern white gentleman, suh, made a rule to pay so much extra for the skins taken from the dead mules. One night a very fine and valuable animal took sick. The master and all hands worked faithful to save its life, but there seemed to be no hopes for it. Late in the night all left for their homes believing that Mr. Mule would soon be in kicker's heaven. The next morning the master told one of his pet Negroes that he might go and skin the mule and get the reward. At early sun rise Sambo was out and gone. Hours passed but no Sambo returned with the mule skin. He did not show up until night fall and as soon as the master laid eyes upon him he began to upbraid him at a terrific rate for taking a whole day to skin a mule when an hour was the greatest plenty. Finally, Sambo losing his tem- the Negro's claim for public office, if otherwise qualified than the mere circumstance of color of skin, the issue is squarely presented in a social problem at the national capital by the marriage of the aged head of a department to a Negro woman. This was his second marriage, and his two grown daughters immediately repudiated their father's action. He purchased a residence in the "swell" part of the city, and when he installed its Negro mistress, great was the commotion in the neighborhood because of the variegated colors presented in the family combination. As there is no law against miscegenation in the District of Columbia, nothing can be done in a legal way, and very little by society, if the realm obeys the edicts of the "first lady of the land," by official custom. Mrs. Roosevelt, whose hunsband has shoved his legs under the mahogany with Booker Washington, and declares his intention of appointing a colored man collector of customs at Charleston, or a Negro to office anywhere else if he possesses mental fitness for its duties. In fact, we expect to witness a lining up of the presidential "set" with the proscribed clerk's associates, in opposition to those presumptuous upstarts who announce that they will surrender their leases and move to other quarters, unless the color combination is not summarily removed from the neighborhood. An appeal to the department will, of course, prove abortive, and it seems that the issue of race equality will be presented to the chief executive in a manner that was altogether unexpected by him.—Washington Standard. Is Misher Moorphy getting jealous? News from Dawson City report the narrow escape of George Rideout of drowning not long since. Mr. Rideout was at work on one of the river steamers and fell overboard, and owing to the extreme coldness of the weather he came very near freezing to death before assistance could be given him. He, however, writes to a "friend that he is alright now, and he and his wife have quit work for the winter." LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS THE TOWN per, replied, "Well, I ges' had to ketch dat durn mule fo' I could skin him, an' it tok me all day long to ketch and kill him, so I could skin him." The boss then learned to his disgust that the mule did not die, but the Negro did not propose to be cheated out of a reward for a little thing like that. The burglar reward may not be a parallel case, but it might be. Hon. John H. McGraw, Banker Jacob Furth and Lobbyist Erastus Braunard, a committee representing the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, is now hurrying to Washington City as fast as steam can take them under ordinary circumstances, for the purpose of first, to contradict the mistreatments made about Seattle by the business interest of San Francisco, and secondly, to urge on Secrecy Root the advisability of giving the Seattle business men what they have fairly and squarely won. The Boston Transportation Co. made a bid for the government transportation business to the Orient, its bid was lower than that of any competitor, it stands ready to carry out its agreement, it has the necessary financial backing to doubly indemnify the government in case it should fail and it is but right and justice that the contract be let to the lowest and best bidder. To see that such is done has taken the above named gentlemen to the national capital, and if the contract can be secured for Seattle's business men they will secure it. Later.—The contract has been awarded to Seattle and San Francisco will soon be a dead one. At the meeting of the board of public works last Saturday a petition praying for the permission to re-open a bootstrap stand in the rear of the P.I. block, which had been closed up on the charge of being a public nulness was signed by H. T. Bailey. After listening to the reading of the lengthy legal document Chairman Thomson, waking up, perhaps, from a Cedar river light plant dream, caught the name Bailey, which he thought was a familiar sound. "Is that the Rev. Mr. Bailey, who was arrested some time ago for seduction?" Without any one replying to his question, a curious grin spread over the faces of all present, and the situation was only relieved when some one drolled out. "The old, old story, all coons look alike to him." The H. T. Bailey signing the petition is in no wise connected with the church, Rev. Bailey is no longer living in the city and the man arrested for seduction was Rev. Mack Scott. No one of whom bears the slightest resemblance to the other. All of this is brought out to show how the average Anglo-Saxon classes all Negroes however honorable some may be with the one guilty of crime, and if one of them is a failure, all are. There are good and bad Negroes the same as good and bad Anglo-Saxons. City Attorney Ellis De Bruler has decided that Seattle has a curfew law and has further decided that in future it must be enforced, which is now being done. Owing to the fact that it is about Christmas time, when girls and boys are delighted to go to town evenings to see Santa Claus in the various store and shop windows, it will apparently work an awful hardship on the little folk to have to skedaddle home by 9 o'clock. It, however, is a good thing, for if parents want their children to see the sights they themselves should take them to town and show them to the children. The congregating of girls and boys of tender years on the streets at untimely hours of the night lays the foundation for bad women and men and if parents are so unmindful of the future of their children, then the municipal authorities are perfectly justified in taking hold of them and regulating their nocturnal goings and comings. Rev. Mack Scott, who for two years was pastor of the A. M. E. church on Fourteenth avenue, and who, while pastor of the church, was arrested, charged with having seduced Mary A. Hall, a 15-year-old girl, and a member of his flock, and whose father was at the time stewart of the church, was found guilty by a jury in Judge Griffin's court last Tuesday evening as charged and is now awaiting sen- (Continued on Page Four.) nd E . . .

Not one Crumm from the president's table will the "Lilly Whites" of the South receive. With a grand jury quite in sight, the gamblers outlook in Seattle is rather discouraging. Why was it necessary to raise the chief's wages? Was he not getting enough without that? Even the hop raiser in the country does not deny the fact that it is the devil to raise hops. Judge Bell's jury will find crime enough in this city, but just who to charge it up to will be the conundrum. San Francisco will pronounce the present national administration a very much bitter Root unless it gets injustice. Paul, the infanticide murderer, may not be under wood, but he is under sentence that must lay exceedingly heavy on him. That recent report of "wars and rumors of war" to take place in the South American republics was doubtless a false alarm. If Gov. McGraw, Jacob Furth and Erastus Brainard do not bring the transportation business to Seattle it is not in the book for her. The legislator who lines up with Ankency this year will be taking a long chance with his reputation, says the Pt. Angeles Tribune-Times. Even Old Sol seems to have been commanded by the ever present "walking delegate" to not shine over eight hours per day, but he won't heed. That "Christmas is coming" is no dream just now. Christmas is not only coming, but it is just over the fence, so near that you can feel it in the air. In future dolls of a blonde color are to be supplanted with those of a brunette. Who will now deny that the blacks of this country are not getting there. The state of Vermont is talking about undoing the work of fifty years by appealing its prohibition laws and begin again to raise her boys and girls on booze. With whose reputation? His or Levi Ankeny's. In case it comes to a show-down between Ankeny and McBride which one will you be for, neighbor? Wouldn't it be well if all the critics of Booker Washington did as much work for humanity, white, black or yellow, as that noble man is doing?—Auburn Argus. But Mr. Preston is himself a candidate for the job and circumstances always alter cases. Are you not aware of the fact that self preservation is the only good rule in politics? Uncle Sam is showing the white feather in permitting England and Germany to throttle Venezuela. Is the Monroe doctrine, the great American elixir, dead? If so, heaven save us. Only millionaires should be sent to the United States senate, thinks a fellow journalist. Evidently some millionaire candidate has seen the brother and that accounts for this great heart "change." No one will object to Carnegie and Frick arraying their philanthropic bumps in deadly opposition to each other, providing they continue to make the public the benefactors of their financial fighting. We surmise that any woman working either in the postoffice department or any other government department is ready and willing, at any time, to give up her job on the assurance of getting a husband. Kansas is to the front again with a frog, said to be as big as a cow. probably this can be rightly called a cow-frog that will mate with that noisy gentleman about the Kansas known as the bull-frog. Seattle is dead easy, and if you don't believe it watch the holiday grafts they have and will soon put in their appearances, with nothing of merit to recommend them save the income they bring to those issuing them. And now that the real culprit, who blew up the Maine has actually been discovered by Fitzhugh Lee, it is in order for Uncle Sam to demand his surrender from the Spanish government and give him a touch of high If all the prophecies about farming in Alaska prove true, the harvesting of hogs, hay and hominy will soon prove as profitable in "frozen Alaska" as in the sunny South. Though prophesied by very reliable men, yet they sound a little icy. If Councilman Mullen's bill, granting a $200 reward to the policeman bringing a dead burglar to the headquarters becomes a law, the present inoffensive blue coats of this city would soon be bloated bondholders from rewards received. Perhaps the Mormon church now holds the balance of power in four different states and soon in seven, but we believe it false. It's very bad to see a Mormon permitted to take a seat in the United States senate, but such false alarms as these are nauseating. Now that the editor of the Seattle Argus has begun to boast and brag about his home surroundings and his elegant office quarters in the columns of his own paper, just as does the editor of the Times, we are of the opinion that such is a characteristic weakness of the tribe. In future presidents of this country will be inaugurated April 30th, instead of March 4th, if a resolution to that effect becomes a law. March is such a changeable month that the temptation for the presidents to pattern their administrations after the weather is to be removed. It's easy enough for certain persons in the Democratic party in New York to talk Democracy is going to throw overboard both Tammany and Hill, and look for new blood, but to do it is quite another thing. The Democratic party of New York is Hill and Tammany and how can it overthrow itself? If the white women of Mississippi ever expect to vote they will first have to dispose of a majority of the old ignorant fossils of their own race, who do the majority of the voting of that state. Nine times out of ten they do not know what nor who they are voting for, but they always manage to vote for the continued rule of ignorance and cussedness. At the last legislature, Mr. Ankeny held the same views on railroads that he does now. He was a candidate for senator then and Mr. Preston voted for him every ballot that was taken, and even bolted the caucus when it would not elect Ankeny. For Preston to pose as in favor of a commission only for votes is all nonsense. He is as much a railroad man as Ankeny.—Pomeroy Independent. T. Thomas Fortune, the newly appointed agent of the treasury to investigate labor conditions in Uncle Sam's insular possessions, was tendered a magnificent banquet by the Afro-American citizens of San Francisco, while Mr. Fortune was waiting in that city for passage to Honoiulu. Many able speeches were made for his benefit, and to all of them he replied at length and in words that were in every way patriotic, and at the same time showed race devotion. It is to be regretted that men who could have been useful and valuable citizens should so far lose control of themselves as to allow the animal part of them to cause their own ruin as did Rev. Mack Scott, who was formerly pastor of the A. M. E. church of this city. A jury of his peers found Mr. Scott guilty of a crime for which no man found guilty of should be shown any leniency. The man guilty of ruining a 15-year-old girl should be given the full extent of the law in punishment. A Dozen Different Ways. When the ordinary citizen intends to go east, or send for friends or relatives to come West, the choice of routes is a question that always bothers him. He wants to know if the same route he used once, some time ago, makes the same time, same connections, if the price is the same, if it costs the same to go East as it did to come West. Possibly he has heard or read of famous points of interest in the West or Middle West that he overlooked on the trip he made. Did not see them because he had not time; did not know he could for the same money; did not know he could get a stopover. There are hundreds of questions he would have asked, many things he would like to have seen and many accommodations he could have enjoyed, only, he did not have to look into the subject, and it was too much bother anyway.

Scott was assigned to this place he found the charge in bad condition, but he took hold of the work with a vengeance, and in less than two years he had the indebtedness all paid off and seemed to be a divinity jewel. But Mr. Scott Dave M. Scott had one weakness, that of making fond of young girls, which finally lead to his ruin. By giving way to that weakness the life of a man otherwise a useful and valuable one, has been wrecked. Too often men forget the moral obligations resting upon them as preachers and teachers and allow their animal passions to get in their fatal work, which means the preacher, his wife, the seduced girl and her family, are all ruined as a result. The man who has no ambitions in life higher than the immoral association with every woman who smiles at him, or whom he can seduce by fair or foul means, ought to be in the penitentiary where he can see men only, and relieve society from such moral lepers. Until the evidence was conclusive of Mr. Scott's guilt there was a spark of sympathy for him, but no respectable person, white or black, can now say one word in his favor, only that he should be severely punished or his crime as a warning to all other libertines. The preacher of all men should be the last to take advantage of a girl so tender in years and when he does do so, he is deserving of neither lenency or mercy at the hands of the court. It begins to look as if Mrs. Mary Collins, who was found dead near Twenty-ninth avenue and Jackson street, last Sunday, was murdered for her money. The coroner's jury declares her death was due from strangulation. Mullen's reward might work well in a case like this. Just why the police force of this city should scoff the idea of Mrs. Collins having been murdered as says the coroner's jury is a most unexplainable thing. Just think of a lot of men, the whole lump lot of them with no more education than is to be found in one twelve year old school boy of only average intelligence arraying their opinions in opposition to a man well versed in books and experience and among the foremost practitioners of medicine in the Northwest. The police of this city always have a "clue" and a "theory" of every crime that is committed, but they never happen to get the criminal unless the culprit stole a loaf of bread to keep from starving to death. Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise, and that is the exact situation of the controversy going on between the police and the coroner over the cause of Mrs. Collins' death. The committee in charge of the Xmas tree exercises at the Mount Zion Baptist Church are making elaborate preparation to give the little ones a grand time.

Mr. J. P. Ball, Sr., who has been in Spokane for some time in the interest of the Masonic order, returned one day this week and will remain in Seattle for some time, if not permanently. His son, Hon. J. P. Ball, Jr., and his family, are to soon leave the city to reside in the Hawaiian Islands, and the old gentleman may conduct the photograph business in this city until his return. The conviction of Rev. Scott of the crime of rape on one of his members is a severe blow to the A. M. E. church in this city, and it is certainly to be regretted. SPOKANE PERSONAL Mr. J. P. Ball, Sr., left last Sunday for Seattle where he will remain until his son leaves for the Hawaiian Islands. Miss Candace Parket, who has been quite ill for the past week, is much better at this time. The waiters of the Hotel Spokane gave a benefit for Rev. J. S. Payne last Friday evening and realized the neat little sum of $22.50 for him. The affair was one of the most enjoyable of the season.

There is enough merriment crowded into the cosy theater this week to cure most any disease and enough left over to put heart into a three-time loser.
