SEATTLE REPUBLICAN DOES SENATOR LEVI ANKENY'S BRAND READ. "N.P." OR "S.P." MAYOR LOUIS D. CAMPBELL WANTS FRANK CUSHMAN'S SEAT CONGRESSMAN CUSHMAN, WASHINGTON'S MOST POPULAR REPRESENTATIVE Historical society SEATTLE VOL. X. NO. 1 DOES SENATOR LEVI A VOL. X. NO. 1 POLITICAL POT=PIE An inquisitive Seattleite is rather anxious to learn whose mark Senator Levi Ankeny will wear at Washington City when the transport controversy comes up in Congress for adjudication soon after the next session begins. It will be remembered that it was the O. R. & N. railroad company that was chiefly responsible for Mr. Anken's election, and that company favors San Francisco over the Puget Sound country in the fight for the transport business of the government to her insular possessions in the Pacific ocean. Of course the O. R. & N. would have been helpless in the senatorial fight without the assistance of the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern, and so they pooled their interests, and with their forces combined his election was an easy matter. Strange to say, even before Mr. Ankeny cleverly takes his seat a clash of interest between the two great forces which combined to elect him has happened, and it is but natural for these persons interested in the Jim Hill railroad companies to wonder what will be the attitude of Senator Ankeny in the fight. In other words, to which of the great railroad companies does he belong? Perhaps after all the Hill railroad interest in this state has made a serious blunder in helping to elect the man, as he may use the power which it has placed in his hands to either kill that company outright or seriously cripple it in the shipping business because it will be in the interest of the Portland people, who, after all, have more claim on him than either the Tacoma or the Seattle people. From Frank Waterhouse it has been learned that when the fight was on in Washington City between his company (which is but a part of the Jim Hill interest in Washington) and the San Francisco transport men he was forced to go to Senator Lodge for any assistance he might need in the Senate, as he was not able to get anything from either of the Washington senators. Nothing could be expected from Foster as he was and is so badly tongue-tied as well as out of place in the Senate that it was worse than nothing to waste time in asking him to look up anything or to in any way interest himself in the proposition and that too despite the fact that he was and is the political "property" of the Northern Pacific, whose interest was much at stake in the fight. Of course Senator Ankeny was young in the business at the time, but it was plain to be seen from his actions that he was dodging the fight, not caring to give himself away so soon after he had been elected, but it was likewise very patent from the very outset that he would throw his voice and vote with the San Francisco concerns when it came to a show down. The charge therefore made before Mr. Ankeny was elected that Oregon would have "three senators" in case he was elected seems to not have been recklessly made, but it was and is absolutely correct. * * * In order to pacify the Tacoma politicians for his leaning to San Francisco in the shipping fight being waged against the Puget Sound country, Senator Ankeny, so goes the story, and it comes from a very reliable source, has on the quiet appointed Walter Christian of Tacoma as his private secretary instead of Editor Statter, and the latter gentleman must in the future stay in Walla Walla and edit the Union of that city if he wishes to continue in the employ of Mr. Ankeny. Mr. Statter is an untiring worker, however, and after all it might prove to be the proper thing for Mr. Ankeny to do, as there is much talk in Walla Walla county by the anti-Ankeny forces to make a life and death fight to wrench the county from the grasp of the Ankeny machine. The first effort to do that will be the defeating of Mayor Hunt for re-election, plans for which are now being carefully laid. The Walla Walla municipal election will be pulled off July 13th. Mayor Hunt has already announced his intention of CONGRESSMAN CUSHMAN, W SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1903 ANKENY'S BRAND RE HON. LOUIS D. CAMPBELL, Who is being groomed by the railroad push in Tacoma as the Pierce County candidate for Congress, which is now filled by Hon. Francis W. Cushman. Even Ed. Hamilton himself could not have put up a harder fight than it is thought Mayor Campbell will do, and if Mr. Cushman gets a delegation from Pierce County to the next State convention it will be after the hardest political battle he ever engaged in. MPBELL WANTS FRANK going before the people for a re-election and the anti-Ankeny forces have likewise announced that if he is a candidate they will skin him to a queen's taste, but whether they are or are not successful in skinning Mayor Hunt for re-election the fight will be continued against the Ankeny machine and it will require both Editor Statter and Banker Buford to be constatnly at the helm to prevent a complete collapse of the Ankeny machine at the hands of the antis. Mr. Ankeny is not a candidate for the senate now, but he is senator, and that can no longer be used as a leverage to boost his machine into power. * * * Hon. D. B. Crocker, who is one of the U. S. internal revenue collectors of this state, enjoys the distinction of being the only man in Tacoma whom President Roosevelt sent out to invite to his hotel while in Tacoma in order to talk things political over with him and for that reason his friends, knowing as they do that Crocker is a very level-headed man, are predicting that he will be a powerful political leader in the affairs of this state in the very near future. Mr. Crocker matriculated into state politics after a thorough apprenticeship in Walla Walla county, where the very earth seems to breed politicians and in every instance while there he always came out first best and on entering state politics as a leader it is predicted that it will be only in the very near future when he will assume the robes of political dictator. Mr. Crocker looks after both the Foster and the Ankeny political interest in the state and incidentally the railroad interest and if he will but select his lieutenants with care there is no doubt but that he will soon rise to the position that is above predicted. * * * Hamilton's decision to not enter the senatorial fight is by no means the only decision that he has recently made, if all reports are true. It is claimed on excellent authority that Hamilton has given Mayor L. D. Campbell his unqualified promise to support him for Congress in opposition to Cushman. Mayor Campbell is quite popular and he was re-elected mayor of Tacoma in spite of the opposition of the Tacoma Twins and Sammy Perkins and the Hamilton-Railroad push N, WASHINGTON'S MOST POP PRICE FIVE CENTS have come to the conclusion that he can carry the county against Cushman, and when the latter has lost his own county it would mean certain defeat at the next state convention. In fact the watchword has been sent all down the line that Cushman must be defeated. *** Judging from the past it is very questionable whether Cushman would be defeated for the nomination even if he does lose his home county. At present he is by odds the most popular politician in the state. For an instance, in Walla Walla county Cushman was roasted last year by the Republicans in convention assembled to a most delicious brown, while at the polls he ran some 500 votes ahead of his ticket and he did the same thing throughout Eastern Washington, the Hamilton-Railroad push to the contrary notwithstanding. When Cushman was first elected Jones beat him almost a thousand votes; the next election, however, Jones did not beat him but a very few votes, but at the last general election Cushman beat Jones almost a thousand votes, showing how Cushman had grown in the eyes and estimation of the public, which shows very conclusively that Cushman has grown so strong in popularity among the voters of this state that it is dangerous to not give him a square deal. Being very friendly to Governor McBridge, and their political interests being along similar lines, should the next state convention unceremoniously defeat McBride, as it will, it might be taking a joke too far to at the same time defeat one of the most popular Republicans in the state for re-election, because, forsooth, he does not cater to certain political bosses. Discretion is always the better part of valor on the part of either an individual or a company, and the Pie-maker is of the opinion that the Republicans had better let well enough alone when they will have defeated Henry McBride, who has quite a respectable Republican following, but who has not enough following to nominate him for governor. In other words, it may not be strong enough to nominate McBride, but by properly handling may be sufficiently strong to defeat the Republican nominee, as was Hon. J. M. Frink. *** After much deliberation and consultation Ed. S. Hamilton, the Tacoma Republican boss, has given it out that he would neither be a candidate for the United States senate to succeed Foster nor a candidate for member of the house of representatives to succeed Cushman. He has further announced that he would loyally support Foster for re-election and his political efforts between now and the time he, Foster, would be on the gridiron would be shaped to that end. With the railroads at his back Hamilton has come pretty nearly dictating not only the politics of Pierce county, but likewise the politics of the entire state, and, if it be true, he has made up his mind to pursue the course mentioned above, other senatorial aspirants had better look well to their laurels or they will find themselves up against the real thing before they know it. 2YA0 203777 The grand jury indictment against Stephen G. Meek, ex-personal tax collector in the county treasurer's office, has been dismissed by Judge Bell, not from lack of evidence, as stated in the P.-I. of recent date, but because there was no case against him. Of all the foolish indictments passed up by our late unlamented grand jury, this was the most senseless. Mr. Meek had the misfortune to lose his receipt book, and was unable to tell just how much money he had collected, but reported the matter to Mr. McConnaughey and deposited sufficient funds with him to cover the possible amount, pending a checking up of the books; when this was done, the full amount was properly applied, and the county did not lose a cent, and it was clearly evident there was no thought or intention on the part of Mr. Meek to embezzle a penny. The whole thing was "much ado about nothing," but it has cost Mr. Meek his job, and the unjust impression has gone from some quarters that he had been playing crooked, which impression the facts in the case do not justify.

It is a melo-drama and a good one and in the hands of the splendid company that is presenting it all of its fine points are brought out in an able manner. This week Miss Ethelle Earle is the wronged heroine instead of the worldly adventures and it is pleasing to note the excel- lent manner in which she handles all the parts assigned to her as she ap- pears equally at home in one as in another.

A general feeling of regret will meet the announcement that the Baker ‘Theater Company will close its en- gagement at the Seattle Theater next week in “A Gilded Fool.” The new bill will be presented with the mat- inee Sunday. This company has won for itself an enviable place in the hearts of local theater goers and the announcement that the long engage- ment will close within a short time will be a general disappointment. Never in the history of Seattle has a company come to this city and built up a stronger reputation for merit than the Baker Theater Company. Its productions have been of uniform merit and never has a flaw been found in the stage details. The departure of the company, however is necessary, as the company has to fill bookings elsewhere and it is imperative that these be attended to. “A Gilded Fool” is the modern com- edy in which N. C. Goodwin appeared in Seattle a few seasons ago and in which he carried the town by storm. It tells of a lamb in Wall street and his ultimate undoing by a relative of the girl he loves.

But all South America has not produced as much gold in 350 years as the United States has produced in the last half century. Up to the close of the fiscal year, June 30, 1902, we had produced, all told, $2,144,476,297 in gold, and $814.234,673 in silver, making a grand total of $2,958,710,970. To transport this vast sum (allowing ten tons to each car- would re- quire six trains of fifty freight cars each, for the gold, and forty- nine trains of fifty cars each, for the silver. If we should place these trains in line, they would stretch twenty and three-fourths miles, and, if this treasure were equally distributed, it would -pro- vide $2 for every man, woman, and child in the world, The United States produced about one-half more of the prec- ious metals than any other coun- try, and thirty per cent of the world’s product. The output of gold has more than doubted in the past ten years; and the director of the mint states that in the Cripple Creek district the “re- serves (of gold) in sight are enor- mous,”—Success, Yankee Ingenuity. No Oriental fable is stranger than the accomplishments of the up-to-date Yankee drummer, In Bagdad, the home of Aladdin, he offers new American lamps that burn either Russian or Ohio oil, for the old battered bronze tallow burners of the Bagdad housewife, and as these time-worn Oriental lamps find a ready sale in New York, the enterprising drummer who introduced the American lamp to Bagdad was well repaid for his trouble. Now, however, American lamps are becoming a drug in the Bagdad market, and the supply of old lamps is rapidly giving out, as our lamp trade with Turkey increases. A Connecticut firm manufac- tures sacred scarabaei for the Egyptian tourist trade. The lity tle charms are carved and even chipped by machinery, colored in bulk to simulate age, and shipped in casks to the Moslem dealers at Cairo, The Arabian guides are the chief buyers, many of them being adepts at “salting” the sands at the base of the pyramids, or about the sacred temples, where they artfully discover these scarabaei before the very eyes of the Yankee tourist, and sell him for an American dollar an article manufactured at a cost of less than a cent, perhaps within a stone’s throw of his own home, For enterprise it beats wooden nutmegs.—Collier’s Weekly. The Audubon societies continue to add state after state to the area of bird safety, They are organ- izations of bird-lovers who work to educate public opinion to a proper appreciation and protec- tion of bird-life, They have now been organized in thirty states, and have 60,000 members. Thus the efforts of a few lovers of birds have developed into a widespread movement of national importance. Shooting the Chutes. | When the tunnel under the | East river, in New York city, now being built, is completed, passen- gers will “shoot the chutes” un- der the East river from Battery Park, Manhattan, to Nassau street, Brooklyn, The tunnel will be in the shape of a crescent, with a 3% per cent. dip on either side. The trains will be started by electricity, but the power will be shut off when the gravity of the grade exceeds itself and the trains will shoot down, acquiring a ve- locity of a mile a minute at the lowest portion of the middle of the river, with enough momen- tum to climb the grade on the other side. The cars will be equipped with electric brakes so that in case of accident at any place on one track the train behind can be automatic- ally stopped, The trains will start from both sides of the river sim- ultaneously, The will be the only gravity tunnel road in the world. Siberia. Siberia is more than 4200 miles from east to west and 2000 miles from north to south, containing about 5,000,000 square miles, about twice the size of the United States, It is estimated that the country contains 30,000 miles of navigable rivers, besides an end- less number of smaller sreams, but they are frozen over for the greater part of the year. Much of the land is worthless for culti- vation, but some portions of it is very fertile and will some day support a large population, at present there is less than an in- habitant to the square mile, Sit- uated in the Irkutsk mountains not far from the source of the Yenisei river is Lake Baikal, the “Holy Sea of the Mongolians.” It is 360 miles long and 35 miles wide, a little more than two-thirds the size of Lake Michigan. How Metal Was Affected. Visitors to the ruins of St. Pierre, says La Nature, have ob- served the following surprising effects of the eruption of May 8th. ‘While some parts of the walls and other remains of masonry still stand, nothing remains of metallic construction but impalpable pow- der. It seems, says a visitor, as if some gigantic hammer had crushed and pulverized all the metal in the city. Probably some chemical action must have taken place. The market, a large hall cae 2000 square meters, that had been entirely and solidly built of steel after the cyclone of 1891, was annihilated without leaving a vestige except fine me- tallic powder. The following bit of good ad- vice is going the rounds of the press, without credit. As words fitly spoken we pass it along: When we see the boys on the streets and in public places we wonder if they know that the business men are watching them. In every bank, store and office there will soon be a place for ev- ery boy to fill. Those who have the management of the affairs of the business will select a boy in whom they have confidence. When they select a boy they will not select him for his ability to swear, use slang or tap beer kegs. They have a few of these habits themselves, and they are looking for boys who are as nearly gentle- men in every sense of the word as they can find, and they know the reputation of every boy in the city. They are not looking for ‘rowdies, and when a boy applies for one of these places and is re- fused they do not tell the reason why they do not want him, but the boy may depend upon it that he has been rated according to his behavior, Boys cannot af- ford to adopt the habits and get the reputation of loafers and row- dies if they want to be called upon to fill responsible positions.

It is supposed that the fact of the arrests and the securing of a deposit from those arrested ap- peased the outraged dignity of the city to such an ex- tent that the subsequent and continued progress of the games was perfectly admissible. This is the only ex- planation or reason in sight why the arrests referred tc did not put a stop to the lawlessness.

The genius and hand of man has added to the availability and the comfort of various places, and as the “good old summer days” are upon us, the mind, wearied with many cares, wanders out to these shady nooks and quiet retreats on the pebbly beach or in mountain fastness, and one looks forward with pleas- ant anticipation to the day or days he hopes to spend, communing with nature “away from the maddening crowd.” To those who are planning for a few days’ outing, either with a quiet family group or with merry Picnic crowds, or who expect to pitch their tents for a few days by the placit waters of our great inland sea, within easy reach of, but still away from the mad whirl of business or society, and at the same time desire that retreat to be provided with all the comforts of subur- ban life, yet freed from the blighting influences that comes from the accursed drink tarffic, can find such a place at what is known as Three ‘Tree Point, a newly prepared location about midway between this city and ‘Tacoma. It is a beautiful picnic and camping ground, provided with many comforts, but liquor using or selling is not permitted in any way. Seattle and the surrounding country are to be congratulated that there is such a place, and its popularity is already evidenced by the many applications that are being made for its use, It is the coming resort for all who desire a quiet recreation grounds, ee The selection of Dr. Thomas F, Kane, who for three years has been the Latin professor in the State University, as its president, to succeed Dr. Graves, resigned, is a just recognition of the merit and ability of a man who has proved his worth by faithful, efficient work in the school, His acquaintance with the work- ings of the school in the past and of the faculty and the students, will serve him well, and be an advantage to all interests concerned.

THE NETTLETON LAUNDRY TONG BREWERY We suppose if Mt. Rainier should get sporty, "alle samee Mt. Pelee," and set out on a career of pyrotechnics and destruction, Tacoma people would lay it all to Seattle and the unsavory conditions that prevail below the "dead line" in this city, and would immediately disclaim any interest in or proprietary rights over the mountain; even to the extent of withdrawing their chaste and orderly name from so ugly a thing, and henceforth it would not be Mt. Tacoma with them, but Rainier, as it is now with the rest of the world. The only paper it has fallen to our lot to see, wherein the action of the Bremerton council in agreeing to banish and keep that town free from saloons, is that freak journal and saloon apologist, the Patriarch, published in this city. To it the action is a submission to "military despotism," and a blow at what it seems to consider the highest type of honorable (?) business—the liquor interests—sufficient to set its editor's pen off in a frenzy of black face type almost equal to a leading editor's Sunday Times.

There is room for all in this world, ing of officers. £2¢.000 for missionary effort jn var “Rule or ruin” is the political slogan in Honolulu. ‘The Hawaiian Islands have inaugurated a sort of United States in miniature in the Pacific, A new system of government is about to take effect, the re- sult of a long and bitter fight between native and white legislators, The Hawaiian legislature recently passed a law to establish county government through- out the islands, an American United States govern- ment on a small scale. After the dethronement of Queen Liliuokalani all federal authority emanated from Honolulu, With the annexation to the United States this system of government was abolished, The Island of Hawaii has been divided into two counties. A third county is made up of the islands’ of Maui, Molokai, Kakoolawe and Lenai, A fourth county comprises the island of Oahu and a fifth the island of Nuhau and Kanai, Of the former centralization, the only vestige that remains is the school system, still existing under central control, Elections to the various offices are to be held every two years, The result of the new arrangement will be that a large percentage of the inhabitants will become office-hold- ers.—Collier’s Weekly. Should Make a Clean Sweep. Whatever may have been the cause for the navy department's boycott of Bremerton makes but little difference; results have been accomplished that are very satisfactory from a moral and good citizen point of view. Time will soon discover the real object. If because of undesirable moral conditions in Brem- erton, the ban will now be removed, and again will the best navy yard in the nation be teeming with ac- tivity. If, as some seem to think, and not without 4 heavy shadow of reason, that the fine Italian hand of San Francisco is back of it all, that fact will not be disguised very much longer, and our people will then know how to act. But one fact is made clear, and that is, when the government wishes the saloon busi- ness to be dispelled and a community to clean up, it can be done and that right quickly, The only way in which the government can now show good faith is to go the rounds. Bremerton was no doubt a foul place, but there are others, and the Jack tars who are quartered at them are just as much in need of pro- tection as those who might be sent to the Puget Sound navy yard... Not only the navy yards, but the military posts as well should be looked after as to conditions surrounding them, Hew to the line, let the chips fall where they will Gold Brick for Southerners, The Southern people who were so eager to make a heroine out of the Indianapolis chambermaid have awakened to the fact that they have been buncoed and are singing the mournful dirge, “Oh! give me back my fifteen-cents; Oh! give me back my money !” It now transpires that the woman, not a young girl, as at first reported, did perform the terrible drudgery and the filthy (?) task of cleaning up the room after Booker T, Washington, and that her subsequent dis- missal was because of general inefficiency. The wo- man has gained a little cheap notoriety and some $3,000 of Southern money, anal the world has had an- other exhibition of “What fools we mortals be.” So the incident may be considered closed. Are Girls Responsible? An interesting and important sociological question is raised from the fact that of the forty-one prisoners in the county jail in Minneapolis at one time recently, there was not one over twenty-three years of age. This remarkable condition calls for an investigation. Why is it, or what is it that is sending our young men to criminal careers? Are they moral degenerates? [s it heredity, environment, lack of home influence and restraint or what? Undoubtedly all of these con- ditions are more or less responsible, and, possibly, probably every one of the forty-one cases could be satisfactorily traced to some one of them, But back of it all is there not another, the real responsibility. for many of them at least? Who knows, who will say and who will doubt but that many of the young men who today occupy felon’s cells are brought there, in- directly at least, from the fact that their chances in life and places of employment have been usurped by the girls of the land. This is a big question and one that would take a volume to properly treat; but the tendency of the times for women to seek commercial purstits is wrong, and already the evil results are being observed. Not that women should be deprived ef the opportunity to earn their living, when neces- sary; neither should they be permitted to monopolize the places of their brothers, to the neglect of those more fitted fer their hands, and thus force those brothers into idleness and crime, which unfits them for companionship or the cares of famWies when they. the women, ‘tires of business and desires homes, if so be they may. There is room for all in this world, and there should be no conflict, in search of oppor- tunity, between the young men and young women. That there is, is an evidence of something wrong. Socialism Impractical. = The Socialists tell us that with the adoption of their peculiar doctrine all would be happiness and serenity ; that everybody would work for the state and the state would feed everybody. The fact of being fed by the state would suit a great many people, not only those who now live as leeches on the body politic, who will not work, but many who now work because they have to, will be ready to join the ranks of “sooners.” Many who would be willing to do their share for the com- mon good would soon object to doing the servile tasks, while many who do nothing at all are fed equally as well. If men will not work under present arrange- ments, how can they be made to work when a public feed trough is accessible, Socialism is a pretty theory, and no doubt could have been worked all right if that unlucky historical apple-eating party had not occurred in the Garden of Eden a few years ago; but that act was a solar plexis blow to the socialist idea, and until conditions can be brought about similar to those which obtained prior to that date, it can not be made a suc- cess. Wall Street Opposes Roosevelt, Now comes a report from Wall street that Roose- velt must be beaten at any cost, and it is proposed to begin, when the proper time comes, a systematic de- pression of all stocks and securities, to so manipulate the prices of these as to cause a panic, at least a great disturbance in the commercial world. This is with a view of trying to convince the people that Wall street and not the Republican party policy controls business and is responsible for the present good times, To create hard times in the midst of a Republican admin- istration, it is thought, will detract from the party fol- lowing enough votes to elect the man, representing Wall street ideas, that it is expected will be nomin- ated by the Democrat party. It is a well laid scheme, if true, and a bold dash, but it will not work. The time has been when Wall street by the turning of a hand could precipitate a panic. It could now make itself keenly felt and cause great disturbance for a time, but the time is past when it can by a manipula- tion of watered stocks upset seriously the prosperous conditions of this country, Should such an attempt he made it would fall short of the object sought. The country wants no more Democratic trust-controlled administrations, The pcople are too well read, too in= telligent to be deceived by any such ruse, ‘The trust and money influences are strong in this country, but the people are stronger, and they are saying: “Four more years of Roosevelt,” and are determined to have them Tacoma’s Change of Heart. It is quite amusing to note the attitude of Tacoma papers with regard to Bremerton, They have in the past always resented any implication that the navy yard was any more an adjunct to, or suburb of Seattle than it was of Tacoma, The hysteria they exhibited over such a claim on the part of Seattle was only sec- ond to their insane vamperings over the name of “the” mountain, But a sudden and a great change has came over them, In their extreme anxiety to “knock” Se- attle, they so far disclaim any responsibility for or interest in Bremerton as to be willing to go a long ways out of the ordinary course to lay ct Seattle's doors the responsibility for the undesirable conditions that obtained at that place, calling forth the official chastisement that has been administered, Be the re- sponsibility where it may, the action of Tacoma papers is an admission of the claim made at this end of the line‘that the navy yard is an adjunct of Seattic and not of Tacoma, It is also quite noticeable that in the work of removing the objectionable features of the town and the bringing about of conditions claimed to be desired by the department, ‘Tacoma’s assistance and that of its senator and representative have been especially conspicuous by its absence, It is now in order for these same papers to enter another how! at Seattle for having interfered with the “personal lib- erties” of the Bremerton saloon-keepers, REALM OF RELIGION. Salvation Army. The Salvation Army, according to General Booth’s official report, now has 7.599 corps and societies, with 13.796 officers, including 1,330 corps and 3.352 officers at home, 668 corps and 2,846 officers in the United States, 530 corps and 1,019 officers in Canada and New- joundland, and 1,233 corps, with 1,704 officers, in Aus- tralia, During the past year there has been spent at the international headquarters £1c,c00 for the train- ing of officers, £25,000 for missionary effort in var- ious lands, £53,000 in the erection of new halls in Great Britain, £3,000 for special work in the poorest slums, £30,000 in various social institutions, includ- ing the Hadleigh Farm colony (besides £173,000 spent in these institutions and recovered from the payments and labor of the persons benefited), and £6,000 on special work among children, Did you ever see a person who had succeeded in do- ing anything that exactly pleased everybody? Hardly. There are intelligent people today who scoff at Christ and call him vile names. Yet surely no one can hope to do more good and less harm than He did, nor with more generous motives, ‘The moral is, go ahead and never mind the kickers —Ex. Facts and Curios of the Bible. The Bible contains 3,566,480 letters, 773,746 words, 31,173 verses, 1,195 chapters, and 66 books, The word and occurs 10,684 times, the word Lord 1,853 times, the word Jehovah 6,855 times, and the word reverend but once, which is in the ninth verse of the One Hundredth and Eleventh psalm, The middle verse is the eighth verse of the One Hundred and Eighteenth psalm. The twenty-first verse of the seventh chapter of Ezra contains the let- ters of the alphabet except the letter ie The finest chapter to read is the twenty-sixth chap- ter of the Acts of the Apostles, The most beautiful capter is the Twenty-third psalm. The nineteenth chapter of II. Kings and the thirty-seventh chapter of Isaiah are alike, The four most inspiring promises are to be found in the sixth chapter of St. John, thirty-seventh verse, and fourteenth chapter, second verse; also eleventh chapter of St, Matthew, twenty-eighth verse, and the ‘Thirty-seventh psalm, fourth verse. The longest verse is the ninth yerse, eighth chapter of Esther, The shortest verse is the thirty-fifth verse, eleventh chapter of St. John, There are ten chapters in the book of Esther in which the words Lord and God do not occur, The eighth, fifteenth, twenty-first and thirty-first verses of the One Hundred and Seventh psalm are alike. Each verse of the One Hundred and Thirty-Sixth psalm end alike. The One Hundred and Seventeenth psalm con- tains but two verses, the One Hundred and Nineteenth psalm contains 176 verses, There are no words or names of more than six syllables, Colfector of Customs Stratton, of San Francisco, has returned from an extended trip in the Orient.” He declares a change of front on the missionary question and now believes they should be encouraged in the good work, He says, “the missionaries are the ad- vance agents for American commercial enterprises.” This has long been realized by all, but the prejudiced anti-religionist, It is sincerely to be hoped that the business interests of the world will waken up to the truth as expressed by Mr. Stratton and for business reasons contribute to the support of these advance agents of commerce, that they may the more rapidly open the dark places of the world, to both commerce and religious instruction, Serious Missionary Handicap, One great handicap to successful missionary work in the Philippine Islands, as well as elsewhere, but more there than in most places, is the fact that Protes- tantism is divided into so many sects and classes. Re- ligious instruction to them, in the past, has been from the Jesuit priests of Rome and the friars, Catholicism is always the same, it never changes, and while it does not satisfy, and a great eagerness is manifested to ac- cept Protestantism yet they are met with so many conflicting doctrines and societies that they become bewildered, While there is but little essential differ- erence in the truths of Christianity, as taught by the various Protestant churches, yet the multiplicity of names and the undue stress placed upon doctrinal points, acts as a hindrance to the work, While, as we understand it, here in Christian lands, these differences are a restraining influence, and while they may be carried too far, yet on the whole, the world is better with them than it would be without; but in missionary fields, for the sake of the cause and the greater good that all might do, it would seem that it were well to minimize these differences, and let all denominations seck to present the truths in their simplest, most at- tractive way, leaving the less essential points of doc- trine until until they can bear “strong meat.” In the Philippine Islands there are over Sity (ferent so- cieties and sects seeking to cvangelize Lhe natives. With their numbers and conflicting doctrines it is no- wonder some turn away disappointed and unsatisfied. A new type of steamer invented by a Danish captain is attracting much attention at Copenhagen. The screw is placed amidships instead of at the stern, thereby securing greater steadiness and increased speed. It is refreshing to see a large and influential labor organization, like the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, come out boldly in condemnation of the foolish, the altogether useless and really vicious sympathetic strike. The grievances of no set of men, however real or damaging to themselves, are of so much importance to the public that other workingmen, without a grievance, the employees of such and the general public should be made to suffer because of them. Let every tub stand on its own bottom. A Chicago department store has just closed a contract for a page advertisement a day for an entire year. The amount of money involved is about $120,000. The contract is one of the largest ever placed in this country. John Wanamaker of New York and Philadelphia was the first merchant to take a page space for a year. At the present time he has half a dozen such pages running in different New York and Philadelphia papers. Aberdeen Bulletin.Comment on the above is unnecessary; the moral is visible. It may be carrying the simile a little too far, but we cannot help wondering if these union men who are so zealous in refusing to work with non-union men will refuse to enter the Pearly Gates when they shall shuffle off, if perchance St. Peter says they are eligible, if upon inquiry there are found to be non-union persons on the inside? On the other hand, they may possibly find non-union men in the other place, then what? Will they then beg leave to set up a little kingdom of their own? It may be a long time hence, for great reforms come slowly, but it is believed by many that the beginning of the end of the open and popular liquor traffic, as it is today, is in sight, and when this shall have been accomplished and this curse of curses to the human race has been put under the heel of public sentiment and throttled to its death, and mankind has gotten away from direct and personal influence with and by the stuff, the satisfaction and approval by the general public will be as unanimous as it is today in the wisdom and justice of the abolishment of human slavery.

One of the highest honors that can be conferred upon a graduate of the Philadelphia high school for girls has this year been bestowed upon a young Negro girl. Out of 196 pupils Susan E. Masseaux has been selected as the salutatorian of the class of 1903, which will hold its commencement this month at the Academy of Music. Miss Lottie Smith, teacher of elocution made the selection. The Negro Farmers' Improvement Society of Texas which recently held its seventh annual session is composed of 3,000 Negro farmers who own 50,000 acres of land 8,000 head of cattle and 7,000 horses and mules. The principal object of the convention is to devise ways and means of cancelling mortgages. The colored man who does little else but to talk politics thirteen months in the year, though he may wear good clothes, eat occasionally, and keep up appearances, he is nothing but a vagrant who has no visible means of support and should be compelled to go to work or to move to some other country where his "liplial" efforts will be accepted as genuine industry. At the tomb of Lincoln recently Roosevelt made one of his characteristic speeches and therein paid his respects to the Negro soldier. He said: "Let me say one word. It seems to me eminently fitting that the guard around the tomb of Lincoln should be composed of colored soldiers. It was my own good fortune at Santiago to serve beside colored troops. A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterward. More than that, no man is entitled to, and less than that no man shall have." It is gratifying to all law loving citizens to feel that this fair-minded man is to remain at the head of this nation four more years. Certainly we print legal notices.

Nadeau, General Agent, Seattle. Afro=American Bishop Turner wrote the following to the Chicago Conservator touching his policy as to the American Negro's success: Atlanta, Ga., May 29, 1903. D. R. Wilkins, Editor of the Conservator: I notice in your issue of May 23 that you have done me the honor of publishing a hastily written letter which I intended to be personal, and was therefore wanting in that particularity which your able paper merits. However, in your complimentary reference to it you have done me a little injustice, which I would be pleased to correct. You say, "The Bishop sees the only hope of the Ngro in wholesale emigration or deportation to Africa. And the Conservator contends that the Negro should stay on his own soil and contend even to the death." You have been misinformed as to what might be termed my policy. I have never advocated the wholesale emigration or deportation of our race to Africa. I know this is the current rumor, and I have been severely criticized and animadverted upon for the advocacy of such a theory. But in all the hundreds and thousands of speeches I have delivered and written upon the subject of emigration, no one ever heard me say, or ever read from my pen, such an assertion or averment as that I favored the wholesale emigration of my race to Africa. You have simply been led to believe it by my critics. Our people are so debauched with the idea of huddle, that the ordinary thinker sees no way for a portion of our race to do anything without all engaging in the same enterprise. I have contended, and do yet, that one or two millions of the colored people of America should go to themselves and found a nation and establish a government of their own, and show the world that they can manage a country in every respect the same as other people, and until they do that the world will not believe we can, and look upon us with contempt and regard us a failure. In short, show the world that we can be farmers, merchants, bankers, governors, mayors, legislators, judges, and everything that a civilized nation calls for. I have contended, and do yet, that one or two millions is all that is necessary, and eight or ten million can stay here, to fight for manhood and womanhood, and be gentlemen or scullions as they like, or leave and go to their own country whenever they get ready. Liberia has about 35,000 civilized inhabitants, and for its proportion is one of the best governed baby countries on earth. This I am able to establish. But she needs one or two millions to help her rise to the plane of respectability. She needs farmers, merchants, doctors, lawyers, commerce and business men, diplomats and every kind of an accession that will give strength to that small confederation. As I said before, emigration and Negro nationality are like two indispensable prerequisites to our future. Simply being good farmers, good mechanics and good waiters is nothing. We are that in the days of slavery. The greatest mechanic this nation ever produced was a black man, Bill Fisher by name, of Columbia, S. C. The architects of Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, who came as a body to inspect his mechanical genius, declared that in slave time. But I will not further impose upon your columns, for I am prepared to show from personal observation that this nonsense about the industrial skill imparted to the Negro by these schools is not worth the breath that we employ to talk about it. All I wanted to say in this article, wholesale emigration, unless it consumed a hundred years, would be madness. But immediate emigration for a million or more is not only necessary, but indispensable to our future as a race as I see it, and let eight or ten million remain here and contend for their rights "even to the death." AS SOME LEADERS SEE IT. The Boston Evening Record having published Rev. Dr. Hillis' remarks of last Sunday in connection with the present condition of the Colored race sent to interview three prominent Colored men on the following questions. 1. Are the Colored people needlessly alarmed. 2. Is the present tide of race prejudice merely the result of an eddy from the South? could return today? He would find that the greatest orator, from many points of view, in the country, is a black man. And a black man today receives from $175 to $300 a night, and there is only one other man in the country who receives as much. "The colored people are needlessly alarmed. The reaction is an eddy from the South itself. All the enemies of liberty, whether they want to or not, have to help the forces of liberty." The Colored American Magazine, published at Boston, Mass., has failed and is no more. We very much regret the failure of this excellent monthly, and hope the repeated failure of such noble efforts will not have the effect of creating a spirit of permanent discouragement among our enterprising young men.

What does the latest Booker Washington episode mean? The gentlemen interviewed on these questions were Messrs, W. H. Lewis, E. P. Benjamin and James H. Wolff, all Colored lawyers in this city. The first two questions Mr. Lewis answered. "I do not agree, however, with Dr. Hillis when he says that the Colored people are needlessly alarmed. The masses of the Colored people of this country have been deprived of their civil and political liberties. "A wave of anti-Negro sentiment seems to be passing over the country, finding expression in the brutal and senseless attack of Dr. Parkhurst, who seems to be trying to give respectability to the opprobrious and distasteful epithet 'Nigger.' "The cause for alarm is that the North seems to have given up its old fight for the Christian republic principle of equal rights for all; and has consented that the Negro be treated as an alien, a ward, and not as a citizen of the republic. "The present tide of race prejudice is not an eddy from the South; it is rather an eddy from the the North. It has been made possible by the Northern laissez faire attitude, which is a mistaken kindness to the South in that it retards its progress towards Republican principles, and is also unjust to the Negro." Mr. Lewis regarded the Washington incident as play to the gallery. Mr. Benjamin thought that there is needless alarm among the Colored people, and that there is no tide of race prejudice. He seems to regard the present as a noise kept while the enemy under the cover of it retreats. Mr. Benjamin further stated that he had heard that the Booker Washington chambermaid incident in Indianapolis was due to an understanding between them by which they were to "divvy up" on the proceeds if Miss Louise Spence Hadley in the outcry of her outraged dignity were successful in raising quite a little sum. Mr. Benjamin further added: "Mr. Roosevelt would be unable to repeat his dinner with Mr. Washington even if he offered him free board for a year, and I have it on unquestionable authority that in future he intends to avoid stopping at hotels other than those of his own people, now that he has found out that the South disapproves of it. "I venture to predict as a test of this lack of manhood that Mr. Washington will not now dare to accept the invitation of Dr. Hillis, because the latter has taken issue with the chambermaid and the South's approval of her action." "I am optimistic," said J. T. Wolff. "I rarely discuss the race question. In the 50 to 200 speeches I am called on to make I steer clear of it, so far as possible, except on Memorial day. "I believe that the Colored people are needlessly alarmed, and that the reflection of race antipathy in the South is responsible for such statements as this rascal in Portland—comparing the Negro to a beast—has recently given utterance to." Now, the misfortune about all these interviews it seems to us, is that they do not go far enough. Mr. Benjamin is certainly right in his diagnosis of the third question; but we fear that both he and Mr. Wolff are inclined to regard the question of "needless alarm" too slight. When such papers as the New York Sun, the Philadelphia Ledger, Harper's Weekly and The Outlook openly advocate the repeal of the 15th amendment there certainly is time for alarm among Colored people. One can scarcely see how a prominent man like Mr. Jas. H. Wolff makes 200 speeches a year without touching on the Negro question at this time, and if he has succeeded in doing so he shows that he has got the art of cheerfulness in the time of great sorrows down to a perfect science.—Boston Guardian. "Consider the Presbyterian preacher in New York who said recently that the emancipation of the slaves was like the prophesy of Beecher. "In 1866 Mr. Beecher said here that we must insist on suffrage for the Negro; that races, like children, are trained by responsibility; that the poorest government of an ignorant man who governs himself is better than the best government that is imposed upon him from without. "Mr. Beecher also said that in view of two centuries of injustice and slavery it might take a century before we would see the outcropping of an occasional orator, an occasional colored educator.
