Historical Society SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The SEATTL [Name] HON. SAM G. COSGROVE, Prominently spoken of as the next Republican gubernatorial candidate. Speaking about Senator Foster and State Senator Ed. Hamilton, it is claimed by one that onght to know whereof he speaks that Hamilton has not agreed to support Senator Foster, but has agreed to let matters kinder drift along on the survival of the fittest order. That is to say, if Senator Foster is able to swing the county in his favor, why, Hamilton will not oppose him, but on the other hand, if Foster cannot manage the gang, and they insist on supporting Hamilton whether or not, then Foster is to pacifically resign himself to his fate and do what he can to pull Hamilton through at the legislature. The politicians are not much stuck on Foster, and unless Hamilton becomes aggressive, both he and Foster stand a good show of losing the county, that is so far as defeating Cushman and McBride. Hamilton and his friends personally, it seems, have nothing against Cushman only his tie-up with McBride. "The county from whence I come is rather remote from the political center, therefore I am not up in politics, especially slate fixing politics," said Senator Grant C. Angel, of Shelton one day this week. "I am, however, very anxious to see a live United States senator elected two years from now, as this state is in great need of much active work in its interest at Washington City. I believe Senator Ankeny is going to make a better senator than the most of us, especially in Mason county, thought he could make, but another just like him and even better is what the state needs at present. The next state senator will hardly come from Mason county, and that, if for no other reason, eliminates me from aspiring to return to the senate in 1905. Mason has had the honor four times out of five, and it is time the other counties were getting a whack at it, and I want them to get it." "Yes, I personally am a very great admirer of Frank Cushman, and I have always pulled off my coat and worked all I could for his nomination and election, but in the last campaign he did not treat his friends right, and then his reference to the Pierce county delegation that voted for the election of Ankeny was uncalled for, and for that reason I do not know what will happen in Pierce county between this and the time of holding the next state convention. Perhaps the matter will be all smothered over by that time, and Pierce will howl for Cushman's renomination, just as in the past, but the matter is being talked over by the politicians," said State Senator LeCrone, a Pierce county politician, to the Pie-maker while in the city one day this week. Gubernatorial speculation from a Republican standpoint is still the chief topic of conversation on the streets among the politicians. A group of Republicans stood discussing the situation one day this week, and they were of the opinion that the gubernatorial candidate should come from Eastern Washington, and, owing to the fact that Hon. Sam Cosgrove had not been mixed up in the various factional fights that have been quite common for the past six years in this state, he would make an ideal candidate for the governorship on the Republican ticket. San Cosgrove has been a conspicuous figure at every Republican convention in this state for the past fifteen years. In the conventions he has always been on the side of right and fair play, and never would be a party to any deal or combine that meant an injury to any one else. He is a power in Eastern Washington, and would be the very strongest man that the Republicans could name for governor. It is granted that the present governor will bolt his party nominee in case he himself is not nominated, but if Cosgrove is nominated, his bolt will die a bornin'. No man in the state is more generally liked than Mr. Cosgrove, and no man in the state will come nearer healing up the breech between the warring factions in the Republican party than he. There is still another Eastern Washington man that is attracting much attention in connection with the gubernatorial nomination, and he is none other than the present state auditor, John D. Atkinson. He hails from Okanogan county, and is a political favorite all over the eastern part of the state. Having at one time lived in the Sound country, where he stood par excellent as a public man, should he be nominated he would be unusually strong in Western Washington as well. VOL. I.X. NO. 47 POLITICAL. . . . E REPU SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1903 POLITICAL POT=PIE POLITICAL POT=PIE Mr. Atkinson has held himself aloof from the factions of the state, and since he has been in the auditor's office he has made more friends perhaps than any one else about the state house. He is not being boomed or pushed for the place by any one, and he perhaps would not let it touch him if spoken to about it. Nevertheless, his name will bob up when the nomination is being discussed. Mr. Atkinson says he is a candidate only for renomination for the state auditor. The Pie-maker took a shot at negligent county officials a few days ago, in that they did not attend to the duties for which they were elected, and, strange to say, two-thirds of the officials wanted to know if it was ment for them, just as though they were neglecting their duties. Of course it was not intended for any one at the King county court house, for all of the officials there are too conscientious to try to smouge on the county by not giving their time to the offices to which they were elected to look after. The deputies under them are likewise conscientious, and they, too, are always on hand, but what puzzles the Pie-maker is why did so many of the boys take exceptions to the article. The local columns of the Spokesman-Review said of Hon. John L. Wilson, who was in Spokane not long since that, "John L. Wilson, a Seattle politician, was in the city." If Mr. Wilson will labor as long and loyal for Seattle as he did for Spokane, you can bet your sweet life Seattle will never treat him as did Spokane treat him last year. The trouble with the Spokane politicians, including the Review, is they have no sense of appreciation. The more one does for them the less they like him. An ungrateful aggregation tells the whole tale. Notwithstanding the fact that there are hundreds of capable male teachers in King county thoroughly qualified to fill the position of assistant superintendent of schools for King county, yet it is currently reported that Superintendent Hartranft has imported a man from Chehalis county to act in that capacity, and he did so, so goes the story, to strengthen himself in the southwest for the nomination of state superintendent of public schools. The move is already kicking up a muss among the teachers which may cause him to lose King county, which would be the greatest loss of all. Speaking about the mayorality nomination, it was reported on the street one day this week that the moral element of the city would urge the nomination of W. H. Lewis for mayor at the hands of the next municipal Republican convention. Lewis is the father of the anti-gambling law of this state, which has for its object the shutting down of gambling complete, and if he decides to make a fight for the nomination HON. W. H. LEWIS it will be hard to find a man who would get a warmer support from those advocating him, and the Pie-maker is not too sure but that he would give Tom Humes a bigger chase for his money than any candidate yet mentioned in that connection. Mrs. Grant W. Chamberlain, of Arizona, can rope a wild horse with a lariat as well as any man in the West. She is an expert horsewoman and pitches a fifty yard rope with more dexterity than any cowboy in that section. Though a Michigan born and reared woman, she is equal to any man at the general spring round up. And now comes the report that the Pretoria home of former President Kruger has been sold at auction for $20,000. Time bears strange fruit to both nations and individuals, for not to exceed a decade ago President Kruger's South African republic gave evidence of becoming a strong and powerful government and now it is only a dream and Kruger himself a European exile. Emperor William, who declared in a Berlin speech a few days ago that he was one of the youngest sovereigns in Europe, must have taken one too many measures of his national bracer, and talked without any regard to truthfulness, as the king of Spain is but seventeen years of age, while the rulers of Bulgaria, Portugal, Russia, Italy, Servia and Holland are all decidedly younger than "God and Me" William. --- HON.

For full information inquire of The Desoto Placer Mining Company Carnegie Recognizes Tuskegee. The ability to endow schools of learning with large sums of money is not possessed by every man; the willingness to do so is lacking in many who are able, but when we find the two combined, and see large sums given to worthy institutions, we doff our hats and give well merited applause. A case in point is the recent gift of Andrew Carnegie of $600,000 to the Tuskegee Institute, that great school for colored people instituted and maintained by that remarkable man, Booker T. Washington. In doing so Mr. Carnegie pays a compliment to Mr. Washington's ability and genius that words fail to record. It is a great thing to amass a fortune such as Mr. Carnegie is so lavishly, but wisely, distributing, but there are hundreds of captains of industry amassing such fortunes. It is a noble thing for a man, having such a fortune, to so generously distribute it where it is so much needed and will so abundantly bless and help his fellow man; but what is all this to compare with the work of Booker T. Washington, who by his own genius, his exceptional ability, is giving the best years of his life to the building up of an institution with such an object as we find at Tuskegee. No higher compliment could be paid to the work and genius of Mr. Washington than that Tuskegee, so young in years, should thus be recognized and be the recipient of such a munificent gift. It proves the saying that "nothing succeeds like success." Tuskegee, by the genius of Mr. Washington is a splendid success, unprecedented in the annals of history; in consequence of which, means for enlarged usefulness and greater success are given him. When the roll of fame is made up, and men are measured according to their true worth, none will stand higher than the name of Booker T. Washington. Negro Suffrage Again. President Hadley, of Yale college, in a recent address on "Citizenship," in speaking of the disfranchisement of the Negro, said: "It was not the fault of the Negro; it was the fault of those who gave him the ballot without previous preparation. The same thing was true in Italy before that, and in Russia. The North did not recognize this at the close of the war. They had recognized the dictum that all men are born free and equal. When the North recognized the condition which prevailed in the South it acquiesced in the suppression of the Negro vote. The fact that the Negro vote was restricted showed that it was inevitable. I shall not attempt to predict the outcome, but one thing should be said. The error of those who said thirty years ago that the Negro can be given the ballot before he is prepared for it was no greater than that of those who today think that those rights can be withheld from him after he has developed and is ready for them." All thinking men, North or South, white or black, will and do agree with President Hadley, that the provisions of the fifteenth amendment were in error. No man or set of men should have the right of ballot without previous preparation for, and an understanding of its duties, responsibilities and priveleges. But two wrongs never make a right.

American Obs law is a greater wrong; and this is what every state has done, which has disfranchised the Negroes; and the Congress of the United States is far from being blameless, as it has set quietly by and seen this open violation of the organic law of the land. How Congress can expect the people to have due respect for law, when the lawmakers themselves lift no finger to forestall or prevent its open violation, is indeed a mystery. Universal suffrage for the black man is no more an error than is universal suffrage for the white man. There are thousands of white persons in the South whose votes are cast at each election who are as wholly unfitted for the right as are the most disquilified blacks. So it needs no argument to show that the only reason Negroes are thus unlawfully kept from their rights is because they are Negroes. Therein is the crime the more heinous. The race question, this particular phase of it, is receiving more general and more intelligent consideration today than ever before, and the time is not distant when candidates for Congress will be forced to meet it as one of the issues of the times. There are too many thousands of Negroes qualifying themselves, by the highest standard, for the full rights of citizenship, to permit the injustice to continue. There are two things for Congress to do. First, provide for an educational qualification for all voters; and in that connection require that foreigners shall reside here ten or fifteen years before being permitted to vote; then cut representation in all states to conform with the provisions of the constitution. This matter has got to be met sometime, and settled in some way; it cannot, it will not, go on thus indefinitely; hence the sooner Congress meets the issue squarely and settles it fairly the better for all concerned. In this connection we are led to notice the action of the Supreme Court of the United States with reference to a case brought up from Alabama, a test case, on complaint of a Negro that he was not permitted, under the new state constitution, to register and vote. The relief sought was denied on the ground that it was a political question. While it is not proper, perhaps, to criticize the Supreme Court of the land, yet in the name of the constitution of the government under which we live, we protest against such an interpretation of organic law. The fifteenth amendment provides the right of suffrage and declares that Congress shall have the power to enforce the provisions of the article. The decision implies that this is a question wholly within the purview of the state government, thereby approving or acquiescing in the action of the states in setting aside or ignoring the provisions of the National constitution. The Negroes of the South, being a peaceable people, will bide by this decision, unjust though it is, but every friend of justice will demand that the perpetrators of this wrong, the Southern states, shall submit to the lowering of their repre- With a Gilt E aces on the Market Fifty Tho 5 PER SH he Fifty Thousand Shares be no more to offer, and D antees to purchase back (a One Dollar and Fifty Cents that may be for sale by D r full information inquire of Placer Mining STOR DE SOTO, Mana DOCTOR DE SOTO, Manager BANKERS, PUGET SOUND NATIONAL BANK sentation to conform with the provisions of the constitution. This phase of the question directly effects the Northern states; as it is, the South has a representation in Congress out of all proportion to their voting population, and thereby an unequal voice in the national legislation and in the electoral college. While this should not be a political question, yet for political reasons solely, it is hard to understand why the Republican party refuses to act; and it is to them the friends of right are looking in this matter. If they will not afford the relief needed, it must, it will, come from some other source, and it is a serious question if they can afford to miss the opportunity to uphold the time honored principles of the party. "There is a destiny that shapes our ends, roughhew them as we may." There seems to be an inexorable law, a "destiny," that tends to bring to naught ill advised plans of men, who do great wrong for personal or political gain. The great leveling process seems to have already begun in the South, for the new constitution of Alabama, which was intended to disfranchise all Negroes and no whites, has exceeded the intention of its framers, according to the Jackson (Tenn.) Christian Index, which claims that it is now disfranchising the whites. It is stated that in Birmingham there are more than 7,000 voters, of whom only 2,430 have registered and will be allowed to vote. The Index concludes that "if the laws are honestly enforced more than half of the white vote will be disfranchised." We are not surprised at this result in Alabama, as it is entirely in line with the workings of the Louisiana and Mississippi constitutions. As we have maintained all along, this class legislation of the Southern states will work out its own cure by overreaching the end that its authors intended to accomplish. Maud Jeffries is the name of an American girl who has captivated all England on the stage and who is now appearing with great success at Rome, the Eternal City. Miss Jeffries will soon be fully equipped to return to America and take the country by storm, as Americans are always willing to break their necks after anybody or anything that has been flatteringly mentioned by Europeans. That Paris grave digger, who a few days ago celebrated his fiftieth anniversary as a grave digger, and who declared in a toast appropriate to the occasion that during that time he had assisted in burying 80,000 persons, must, of all men, know beyond any question of doubt a "dead one" when he sees it. When he himself crosses the "great divide," he will doubtless run across a great many familiar faces. Recently King Christian, of Denmark, while out walking as any ordinary citizen, saw two little girls respectively four and five years of age in eminent danger of being run over by an electric tramway car, and though himself eighty-five years of age, he rushed out and rescued the little tots from what bystanders declare would have been sudden death. Of all the European monarchs King Christian is by odds the most democratic in every respect.

The newspapers of Seattle have the satisfaction of knowing that they saved the citizens one-half on garbage disposal expense, since Mr. Yaw was forced to cut his proposition from 50 cents to 25 cents per cubic ton. The Seattle General Hospital will open a training school for nurses, and will erect an addition to the building. Business men are complaining that the paved district has not been cleared of objectionable places, as was promised, and that some places closed for a time are being opened again. Now that the council have decided to regrade Second avenue from Pike street to Denny way at a cost of $140,000, pave First avenue south at a cost of $100,000, and paving on Broadway and Union to cost $125,000, it is clearly evident that there will be something doing in Seattle this summer. The facts are, however, that these are but a tithe of the public and private improvements under way and contemplated. The school of cooking and domesticne economy lately inaugurated in connection with the Young Women's Christian Association in this city is a movement in the right direction. The object is commendable, and the school should receive liberal support and patronage. Such things as this will do more to swing the domestic world back on an even balance, from which position it has been for some time, than any other one thing, if supplemented by another essential reform. In our modern idea of the higher education for women we have come to the practice, if not the belief, that said higher education means an education along commercial lines, and education along the lines intended in the Divine economy are neglected. Woman was intended for a helpmeet, not a competitor to man. There is one feature in connection with the daily press reports of this movement that must be excepted to; and that is, the statement that this will go far towards settling the vexed "servant girl" question. The exception is to the term "sevant." The word is entirely foreign, and is repulsive to the free and independent ideas of the average American girl. In some countries and with some people it will do, but not here. The girl or woman who cooks a man's meals, cleanses his linen or serves him at his table is no more his servant than she who takes his dictation and writes his letters, serves his customers in his shop or receives wages for any sort of service. If the term servant could be dropped from the language and the woman who does domestic work would be treated with the same consideration as the girl in commercial positions, supplemented by schools for teaching domestic economy, then truly the vexed question of help for the wife at home would be no more serious than it is for the husband in the office or shop. The weather that has been dished up to the Sound country for the past week could not have been better if the weather man had have had it made to order especially for this section. Even those days of the week on which it actually rained were ideal ones. 20 --- ```markdown ``` THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN. he Town The intimation on the part of the daily press that Dr. Jordan is to some extent responsible for Miss DeBoe's self destruction reminds old timers of the part Dr. Jordan was accused of playing in the sudden death of Hon. Henry L. Yesler, and the intimated undue friendship between the doctor and Mrs. Yesler. The charge was not sustained, but the doctor had an exciting trial for murder, which brought him more public notoriety than he desired, despite the fact that he was at the time running a pill factory. The Wilson ball players, a rival organization to Dugdale's, is doing the act in the city at present, and is drawing as big crowds as Dugdale. The people of Seattle are baseball mad, and seeing this the "sure thing men" in this direction are working them for all there is in them, and that's saying a good deal. What fools we mortals be. Hon. S. H. Piles, who has been very much indisposed for the past six months, contemplates visiting his old home in Kentucky in the very near future, leaving for that point in about two weeks. He hopes while there to fully regain his accustomed good health. Mr. Piles is, perhaps, Seattle's leading trial lawyer. No one can curse Councilman Parry for his vote on the Yaw franchise, for he had not arrived in the city at the time it was taken. Mr. Parry returned to the city last Tuesday, after a few weeks absence in Southern California, whither he went for a short vacation. State Senator Grant C. Angel, of Shelton, was visiting in the Queen City a few days this week, and, owing to the rapid growth of the city since he was here last year to spend any time, he almost got lost in trying to find old friends. Bro. Angel is the versatile editor of the Shelton Journal. The local members of the editorial craft truly hope that Editor Pyle, of the Post-Intelligencer, will soon be fully restored to good health, as he has had quite a long siege of sickness during the past six months. The army of workmen that are employed on the Washington Hotel in order that it may be sufficiently completed to accommodate President Roosevelt on his arrival in the city, are not letting the grass grow under their feet, nor is Mr. James A. Moore, the man of the hour, letting very much grass grow under his feet in seeing that they do not let the grass grow under their feet. Mike Doogen is one of the most clever dialect writers in the Northwest. His letters in this paper have attracted much public attention, and in the future they will even be more readable than in the past. His report concerning what he heard will be in next Friday's Republican, and this will be one of the best things he has as yet written.

Col-Editor Blethen has returned from California, and nothing is more indicative of that fact than the black-faced double measure editorials in the Times. After a few days' absence from the harness the colonel always returns to his desk brim full and overflowing with such hot stuff that the copy actually burns the compositors' hands, and if it is not set up in a very short time after it's written, it generally consumes the paper on which it is written. In the death of John Colling Seattle has lost one of her truest and staunchest friends. Coming here in the early days, he has been a conspicuous figure in the making of Seattle what she is. In him the Seattle Spirit had one of her most ardent adherents. Having amassed a fortune, placed at a million dollars, he belonged to that class of citizens of which John Leary, J. J. McGilvra, Dexter Horton, Cyrus Walker, Judge Thomas Burke, J. M. Colman and others, all millianaires, by getting hold of valuable real estate in early days and holding on to it, are conspicuous living representatives. The Pacific Northwest, the magazine started in this city by O. M. Moore, of the Bureau of Information, the first number of which appeared the first of April, has received extensive and well deserved mention by the state press. The Pacific Northwest has come into being at an auspicious time and occupies a field distinctly its own, and heretofore unoccupied. Its mission is to compile facts and figures regarding the Northwest and by combining the art of the photographer and the journalist, in well selected display and pen-pictures, present the information desired by home and information seekers in the most comprehensive manner. Seattle and the state of Washington are to be congratulated for possessing such a well directed Bureau of Information, and for having as its manager those with such journalistic ability as the new magazine exhibits. Herbert A. Shoenfeldt, one of Seattle's most energetic young business men and a member of the Standard Furniture Company, is home after an absence of four months on a wedding tour. While gone Mr. Shoenfeldt traveled nearly half around the globe, but, of course, did not "see the sights" to any great extent. In explanation of why he did not, Herb winks the other eye and says, "have one on me." President Loubet of France, who recently visited Algiers, an African French possession of much commercial as well as strategic importance, was accorded one of the greatest military receptions that have taken place under the French flag for a good many decades. France at present is the cynosure of all Europe, as well as American governments. During the year not less than fifty persons were killed in the feud belt of Kentucky as a result of periodical outbreaks between, what is known in that section, as feudal parties. One would hardly expect to meet such daredevil outlawry in the midst of civilization, but you do, and it is growing worse every year. W. R. Hearst, the father of yellow journalism, has taken to himself a wife. Now look out for the yellow kid. Time is slipping along and June is only a month away, when the new gambling law goes into effect. What then? President Roosevelt is again on the move, and it requires all his strenuousness to meet the demands made upon his time. There seems to be some difference of opinion as to just what a trust is, but a true understanding of the anti-trust law seems to have been arrived at. As a peace disturber in the ranks of the modern Democrat party, W. J. Bryan is an unbounded success, and no Republican cares to hamper him in his work. Spokane is now in the throes of a municipal campaign. It seems to be the same old story—law, order and decency on one side and the other fellows on the other side. The National and International Good Roads Societies have been holding a convention in St. Louis this week. Among the speakers were General Nelson A. Miles and W. J. Bryan. There is this difference between the New York old maids who so severely criticized President Roosevelt's views as to the raising of children: He spoke from experience, they only from theory. Five years ago today Admiral Dewey's guns, in Manila bay, spoke the beginning of the end of Spanish tyranny in her island possessions, and heralded the dawning of a new life to oppressed millions. Governor Cummings, of Iowa, who has been at cross purposes with the President on the tariff question, has so modified or side-tracked his views as to be a very agreeable guest of the President in his journey across the state last Tuesday. If any one has heard any echoes from the W. R. Hearst presidential boomlet, started at the Jeffersonian banquet in this city a couple of weeks ago, they will please lassoo the same and return it to the Seattle Times, properly labeled. It is a little early to organize political clubs for the 1904 campaign, but in view of the fact that President Roosevelt will be among us in less than a month, would it not be a good idea to organize a monster Roosevelt Club at once, to prove Seattle's loyalty; then it can be put on cold storage until proper time for further use, next year. Now that the new gambling law will so soon take effect, we suppose we will hear no more of the first and the booby prize winners at evening card parties. Hereafter devotees of the social green cloth will have to content themselves with the knowledge of superior ability, without the tangible evidence of their skill. Cruel lawmakers, not to discriminate in their favor. There undoubtedly are some inequalities in the present tariff law, and here and there a schedule that should be adjusted, but the risk of upsetting business conditions is so great, if any attempt be made to readjust it, that it is the prevailing opinion that it is better to bear the ills we have than to fly to those we know not of. We know times are pros- perous now, and that tariff tinkering usually has a depressing effect. Surely the risk is too great. Dun's Review says that 50,000 men are voluntarily idle who might be well employed at the highest level of wages ever paid in this or any other country, and all of this is because men insist upon invoking the un-American strike because they are not allowed to manage their employers' business. Or is it because the average wage-earner has not yet learned how to stand prosperity? He seems to think he must strike to keep his income down to the want basis. It has always been contended by conservative, thinking men, that there was no grounds for serious alarm because of the trust formation tendency; believing that when the time came that they would be a menace to the public, and a real danger existed, that either they would die of their own weight or a remedy for their neutralization would be found. Time has proven that that view was correct and the remedy is at hand; all that was needed was a firm hand at the helm and the application of law already provided. The Colfax Commoner seems to be a little mixed in its dates. It says: "Jefferson day banquets were held all over the United States last week and Republican orators vied with Democrats in eulogizing the memory of the founder of the Democratic party. It should be remembered, however, that while he was living Jefferson was made as much of a target for Republican abuse and ridicule as Bryan is today." The facts in the case are that Thomas Jefferson died twenty-eight years before the present Republican party had an existence. Government by injunction is now under fire. It is approved and condemned by both capital and labor. It seems to depend on whose ox is goaded. When it is invoked to prevent strikers from doing unlawful acts, it is condemned by labor unions and commended by capital. When it is brought into use to dissolve a money trust, it is condemned by capital and approved by labor unions. The great mass of people, however, not directly concerned, look on and approve of it, when necessary. Albeit they regret that adjustment cannot always be reached without such drastic measures. The only reason that can be assigned why New York and possibly Indiana and Illinois should oppose Mr. Roosevelt's election is because they have large cities with large aggregations of capital, and as is well known the trusts do not approve of the President's ideas. Added to this is the fact that in these large cities are large foreign populations, of that class of foreigners who have ever been opposed to the Republican party. So if these otherwise antagonistical elements may, for political effect, be found working in harmony, some states otherwise Republican may go Democratic. The Democrats, true to their customs, are following as close to the heels of the Republican party as possible. In their wild scramble for an issue, they are likely to settle on tariff revision. A free trade platform landed them in the saddle, but it was soon gall and wormwood to them. Free silver was a delusion and a snare. Now, if they can intensify the feeling that exists towards a few inequalities in the present law, they hope thus win out. Good old Jeffersonian principles are fine things to boast of and banquet over, but when it comes to a modern time platform, these don't count, and they find they must get as near to the tail end of the procession as is possible. Tariff revision is only another name; it is modified protection. Collier's Weekly figures out that President Roosevelt can be re-elected next year without assistance from New York. This leaves California, Colorado, Idaho, Maryland, Montana, Oregon, Rhode Island, Nevada and Utah in the doubtful list. It will require 239 votes in the electoral college to elect. The safely Republican states cast 243 votes; more than half of the doubtful states will give majorities for Roosevelt, if he is nominated, so if Illinois and Indiana, which some count as doubtful, should go against him, he would still be able to win. These figures gives all the Southern states to the Democrat nominee. ?

In the wheat region, farmers are offering thirty-five dollars a month and board for good help. And yet, there are thousands of young fellows who complain of lack of remunerative employment in overcrowded cities. It is queer that a man should prefer to work at from $1.50 to $2.00 in unsanitary factories, workshops or offices, where he will never amount to much, if anything, and where prospects of acquiring a competency are small, when he can get healthy employment, the nobility of which is as old as mankind, at good wages, and with promises of being his own master within a few years. There would, no doubt, be a god deal more of social contentment and progress, and less of crime, suicide and disorder, if our young men were, instead of hurrying to the nerve-racking and ambition-killing centers of population, "to take to the woods" and live as they live, amid normal, natural surroundings.—Saturday Spectator. The cannerymen in British Columbia are considering the project of canning sardines during that part of the year when salmon are not running. Mr. Dudley says that a sardine cannery was established at Port Townsend two years ago, and that in 1901 the output was 60,000 cases. This year's pack will amount to 175,000 cases. It is claimed that these so-called sardines are superior to those of the Atlantic coast and are equal to the foreign product. CITY LEGAL NOTICES.

The great Tolstoi play, “Resurrec- tion,” is now being played simulta. neously in London, Berlin and Paris, and has created a sensation in dra- matic events seldom heard of. The originality of thought, and wonder. ful deliteation of character shown in Tolstoi’s latest work has interested the litorary and reading world to a marked extent. The characters have been pe trayed by a master hand, and the acticn of the play is so vivid and so full of action and vivacity, that the story ic one of the most intensely in- teresti: « ever produced on the stage. The en: agement of Manager Aiden Benedic’ s company in “Resurrection” at the Third Avenue Theatre, on next Sunday, has already proven a promi- nent tcpic of conversation here, and = ye ‘Cm | HB | cask a l 291 Cream Ai ® 2 Cotter Strictly High Grade; Used by all Lovers of Really Good Coffee and Recom- mended by the Leading Chefs. «_Ask your Grocer OF Wases kp gr Ea Ff oa ES ZA a) a Be Yate ¥ s&s — z - ¢ Le, ATOR = = Oe RS. iS ( Ai Wa ar CN wy ye N HETTIE BERNARD in Resurrection the production is expected to prove one of the big dramatic successes of the season. Are You a Mason.” “Are You a Mason,” the big comedy hit, which will be seen at the Grand on Sunday evening next, is said to be a rip-tearing jolly piece, full of comic surprises, bright lines and amusing situations; and it is played by as strong a company as Rich & Harris ever selected. At its head are John ©, Rice and Thos. A. Wise, who impersonated the pseudo Masons; and each is seemingly a bigger liar than the other. Masons find the play the funniest yet, but those who are not Masons get just as much enjoyment out of it, for never were there two mortals more sorely tried than the characters played by Messrs. Rice and Wise, and never were there two com: edy impersonations that more nearly approached the top notch of marrt- ment. There will be three perform- ances here. E. N. BROOKS & CO.
