Seattle Republican

Historical Society The SEATTLE VOL. X. NO. 6 SEATTLE, SAMUEL H. PILE PUBLICAN SEATTLE REPUBLICAN U. S. SENATOR SAMUEL H. PILES FOR U. S. SENATOR and was content to let it go at that. He has always been a hard party worker from the primaries to the election, and has always stood for party harmony. Even before the indomitable Leigh Hunt retired from King county politics he was high up in the counsels of his party, and it is said that Mr. Hunt always said that some day he hoped to see Sam Piles in the United States senate representing the state of Washington. When the big Frink-Humes fight was on and at its most dangerous point, it can be safely said that it was more the cool and calculating judgment of Sam Piles than any thing else that prevented a split in the party at that time that would have taken a decade or more to have healed up. No man in the state stands higher in his profession than Samuel H. Piles, and he today is the senior member of perhaps one of the largest law firms in the state. Though Mr. Piles is the attorney for the Pacific Coast Company, he is not in anywise depending on the corporate influence of the state for support in the political undertaking in which he has so recently launched. The friends of Mr. Piles hope to have a solid King county delegation to start out with and to try and make such terms with outside counties as will make sure his election. At this writing it can not be said whether the McBride - Preston influence will be with him or not, but it is supposed by some that it will be, especially in King county. If there be a consistent Republican, Sam Piles is one. When the party met its 1896 Waterloo, Piles still stood like a stone wall and was among the first on the scene two years later declaring the Grand Old Party was still the people's friend and they should return to the party that stood for peace, prosperity and perpetual happiness. He personally took to the field and the splendid work he did on that occasion is still remembered by both the Republicans and Democrats. Not popular alone with one class of citizens is the man, but popular with all classes. Aught can not be said against him by any one, and being personally popular he, it is claimed, will go directly to the voters and ask their united support.

Boy at foot of class (making a wild guess)—"Sebaceous follicles is the name of the new senator from the State of Washington."—Chicago Tribune. Local politics both in the city of Seattle as well as in King County is warming up pretty fast considering the fact that it will be seven months before the next city convention will be held and over twelve months before the next county convention will be held. The number of aspirants for the mayoralty has not increased since the matter was last gone over by the Pie-maker; in fact it seems to be in statu quo. Mayor Humes will be a candidate for re-election, and succeeding in that he will be a full-fledged senatorial aspirant, asking the county convention to endorse his candidacy as it did on a former occasion. Hon. Ellis Morrison will be a candidate for the mayoralty nomination, and it is said that W. H. Lewis will also aspire to the honor. As of yore, Mayor Humes will be a candidate for the wide-open policy people who will rally to his support, and as in the past they will spend their money freely for him. Ellis Morrison will pose as the liberal candidate; that is to say, he will see that the law is carried out, and yet he will not stand for any undue "pinching" of the gang just because it is vile. W. H. Lewis will represent what is generally known as the moral element of the city and will do Sunday School politics. Each of the three men has something of a positive strength, but neither of them can be said to be personally popular among all classes. Humes has the gambling fraternity, Morrison is popular among the professional politicians, while Lewis is very popular with the members of the Pilgrim Sunday school. There are a hundred and one candidates for the various county offices, but many who are now candidates will think better of it before the next county convention is called. The withdrawing of John E. Humphries from the supreme bench race was the signal for a number of aspirants to bob up for that honor. John K. Brown is already an avowed candidate. It is also claimed that Arthur E. Griffin or Judge Billie Pell will be a candidate for the honor. They are to draw straws to see which one is to be the candidate. --- --- VOL. X. NO. 6 There no longer seems to be any doubt but that Samuel H. Piles, the popular Republican politician and attorney of this city, will be a candidate for the United States senate at the hands of the next legislature, and that he will make a masterly effort to go to Olympia with a solid King county legislative delegation asking for his election. A number of Mr. Piles' personal friends, in discussing the matter with the Pie-maker one day this week, did not hesitate to declare that he would make the race for the United States senate if his fellow citizens so desired him. In other words, he was in the hands of his friends, and that meant that he would be a candidate for the place. It perhaps can be said without fear of successful contradiction that Sam Piles has more frequently saved the Republican party in this county from either a signal or partial defeat than any one else. Again, it can also be said with equal emphaticness that Sam Piles is the most popular politician in King county, and on account of these very qualities he will make all other aspirants, if any there be either in or out of this county, know that he is out gunning for the United States senatorial plum from the state of Washington to succeed Addison G. Foster. Those who have lived in Seattle for any number of years and who have taken enough interest in the political affairs of the county to visit the various Republican county and municipal conventions that have from time to time been held, will remember that Sam Piles was always there, and any mention of his name always thrilled and electrified the entire audience as that of no other name that might be either directly or incidentally mentioned during the life of said convention. For years he has been one of the living springs of the Republican party in this county and he has helped so many political aspirants to success that it is but natural that they now turn to and are insisting that he be their candidate for the highest office in the gift of the denizens of this proud commonwealth. Mr. Piles has never posed as either a great leader or a political dictator, and whatever honors have been bestowed upon him by admiring friends he took them modestly POLITICAL POT=PIE POLITICAL POT=PIE The political sensation of the day is the defeat of the Levi Ankeny municipal ticket in Walla Walla last Monday by the Miles C. Moore anti-Ankeny Republicans. Ordinarily speaking the results of that election would have no political significance whatever on the politics of the state, but in view of the fact that it was a rebellion from the Ankeny regime, which has held undisputed sway in that county for the past ten years, it means a whole lot and may be far-reaching enough to be felt in the next state convention. For the past decade the political wishes of Levi Ankeny have been carried out to the letter, and every official within the county of Walla Walla, from sheriff to constable and health officer, and even the teachers in the public schools, have been selected at Mr. Ankeny's approval, but in this instance a revolution broke out and, though all of the old-time vigor of the Ankeny machine was brought to play against the Boxers, the old regime lost the day and now consternation reigns supreme in the Ankeny camp. * * * The defeat of the Ankeny ticket may mean that the Boxers will control the next county convention and completely overthrow the Ankenyites, but be that as it will or may, it does mean that the people will not tolerate those men whom they have honored to high and dignified political positions, meddling into their local affairs. Mr. Ankeny had reached the goal of his political ambition by being elected to the United States senate; it was his duty to leave local political battles to be fought by others and not in any way mix in with any faction either in or out of his county. Levi Ankeny of himself is doubtless just as popular in Walla Walla as he ever was, but Levi Ankeny, the political boss and dictator, has met a signal defeat and his power is rapidly on the wane. The Pie-maker would like to suggest to Senator Ankeny that he take last Monday's gentle jar as a warning, and from now on wash his hands of local political scraps and look after national politics. It's utterly impossible for one to continue being a United States senator and at the same time be a ward and precinct politician. You have sufficient money at your command, Mr. Ankeny, to make an able and efficient senator, but you have not got either sufficient amount of money or brains to be both a senator and a local peanut politician at one and the same time. This is not said in an unfriendly spirit, Mr. Ankeny, but it is said in a positive spirit, and it is truly hoped that you will give up local politics and be United States senator.

How many of these will actually vote remains yet to be seen. It is a disgrace to the intelligence and accredited public spirit of Seattle citizens that there has been so little interest taken. The Seattle Republican is heartily in favor of the bonds, but it is not right that so few voters should decide the matter. It seems to be that nothing but an election with office at stake will stir the people to shake themselves from business and social entanglements to do the duty they owe to themselves and the community. A continuance in this way will soon cause a community to die of senile decay, or else place it in the hands of a designing few to be used for ends that are not for the greatest good for the greatest number. We believe the bonds will be voted, and that the money raised will be properly expended, but it is a sad commentary on our public spirit. We believe the people generally are in favor of the measure, but how few votes it will take to defeat it, if so be those registered are opposed. Surely this lethargy is not right. Where is our boasted Seattle spirit? *** The State of Indiana has purchased 2,000 acres of land in Clark county for a forest reserve. Of this tract 1,500 acres are covered with young secondgrowth timber of varying quality, and 500 acres are tillable.

The entire tract will be placed in timber. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Publishes the POLITICAL NEWS AND COMMENTS of this state every week. The prognostications of the Political Pot-Pie Column is admitted by all partisans and factionalists in the state to come nearer hitting the "bull's eye" than any other in the state. Many of the leading politicians of the state keep a complete file of THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN, and hardly a week passes but that some politician writes to the office adding his testimony, which corroborates the above allegation. that covers the entire state as does no other publication in the state, and those persons in the state who are deeply interested in the politics of the state are beginning to learn that fact and are slowly but surely increasing the subscription list of the paper. YOU certainly are not posted on the politics of the state unless you are a regular and careful reader of The Seattle Republican. You certainly will not be able to make a successful candidacy for any state office unless you are posted on politics, and if you do not read THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN, the only paper in the state that makes a specialty of Political Prognostication both in and out of season, you certainly can not think for a minute that you are posted on politics. Regular, Reliable, Readable, Republican which can not be said of a great many papers for which you spend your money, and being, perhaps, far removed from the political center, you have no means of either verifying many of their wild statements, or, hearing a contrary opinion, you naturally are ignorant of the real situation, in which condition you absolutely would not be if you were a constant reader of the best political paper published in the state. It's up to you neighbor whether you do politics on BUSINESS PRINCIPLES or like a school boy. If on business principles you intend to work on, start out properly by subscribing for Realm of Religion More Are Going to Church. More thoughtful, intellectual men are going to church in New York today than there were ten years ago. On the other hand, proportionately fewer women are attending church than formerly. That is especially so among women of leisure and the so-called society woman, for whom the Sabbath is crowded with social engagements. It is also true largely of the wage-earning woman, who not unnaturally desires the Sabbath for recreation. In the aggregate, of course, there are more women in our churches than men. This should not be, for the latter need the church's message more than the former. Orchestras, and an imposing ritual, have no place in God's house. They attract the curious and irreligious and distract the right-minded. These accessories belong to the theater, and a creed is weak which has to resort to them to attract the public to church. Preaching the gospel is what the oppressed human heart seeks to lighten the burden. The hopeful words of the Master are the best balm for the doubtful and suffering and the despairing. Therefore the heavy-laden should seek the sanctuary. I am compelled to believe that every man who habitually refuses to attend God's house is helping along to the limit of his personal influence this degradation of life for the entire community.—Rev. Dr. Donald S. Mackay. Easier to Get Much Than Little. If you would get great things, you must expect great things, and you must dare to ask for great things. When your endeavor and your appeal are on a great scale, you may excite a spirit and purpose of effort which would never be aroused by simpler or less daring demands. Dr. Bushnell expressed this truth when he was planning the Hartford Park. His project seemed to many too daring. They thought it safer to begin on a small scale. But he believed that the larger the request was more likely to be granted. To the chairman of the committee to apply to the city he said: "Things are often made practicable by being made difficult. Human nature is such that in many cases the more considerable the enterprise to which you challenge a community, the more likely you are to get it adopted. In my opinion it is safer THE SEA Publishes the POLITICAL N Pot-Pie Column is admitted by all pa the state.

As we go to God with our requests we often ask for too little; we cannot ask for too much. Our hearts are enlarged as we enlarge our desire for a larger blessing.—Times. Not What We Ask For. Not always what we desire, but always what we truly need, our wise and loving heavenly Father stands ready to give to us. And what earthly human parent, according to his wisdom and ability, would desire to do otherwise toward a best loved child? Who of us as a loving parent would say unqualifiedly to a dear child: "I am ready to give to you whatever you ask, even though it be what will seriously harm you?" Yet we want even our unwise children to tell us their wants, and then we give them in love better than their best desires, even while refraining from doing them harm when they ask that we should. What better petition can we offer with our daily requests to our Father in heaven than, "Not our will, but thine, O Lord, be done?" How much we owe to God for not giving all that we ask for!—Selected. *** That is the great law of manifestation. Have I a clear vision of God? Then I am looking steadily at him with a heart that longs to be pure. Can I not see him? Then some secret sin may be holding a vell before my eyes. I have changed, not God. When I seek him he will be found of me; but if I desire him not, he will be a God far off.—Joseph Parker. What we call obstacles or hindrances in the line of God's providence are often successive steps of ascent by which we are to climb to the heights to which we aspire. It is for the surmounting of these now seeming barriers that God gives us help, for which we shall praise him when we look back. As Bushnell the seer says: "What you call hindrances, obstacles, discouragements, are probably God's opportunities." And when we see this our complaints and groans will be changed to thanks and songs of rejoicing. *** When we as pastors, when the Church wets its Bible with its tears, it will be mightily stirred, it will move forward irresistibly to the conquest of this world for Him for whom the book claims it, the Lord of life and glory!—Rev. W. . Haven. There are two modes of life: that of the diamond—everything tending to increase its magnificence, to make it brighter and more brilliant, every effort directed toward self; then there is that of the seed—dying to self in order to live. Which life is ours? Only as we strive to serve do we make the most of life—Principal Gordon. --- The abiding presence of God is the heritage of every child of God. The Father never hides his face from his child. Sin hides it, and unbelief hides it; but the Father lets his love shine all the day on the face of his children. As the sun is shining day and night, so your sun will never go down. Come and live in the presence of God.—Andrew Murray. Yet there are people who fret for a change. There is Mr. Bryan with his unverified predictions of dire disaster heavy upon him; he is not satisfied. There is former President Cleveland, who issued bonds in time of profound peace to keep the government afloat; he is not satisfied. Mr. Bryan continues to shout for free silver and Mr. Cleveland admonishes his followers to never abandon free trade. In spite of them the country is so prosperous. In spite of their efforts it will continue so.—Olympian. The Marks of a Lady. There are certain marks of a lady which are easily recognized and possible to cultivate. These are a gentle voice, refinement in the use of language and neatness in dress. Not all girls can be educated, but they can be thoughtful in the use of words, and can eliminate from their vocabulary all slang. Slang from the lips of a woman is exceedingly vulgar. A gentle voice is possible. Thoughtlessness more than anything else is responsible for the loud, harsh tones often heard when girls are in conversation. Loud speaking spoils the attractiveness of the most beautiful face. It is worse than giggling, for the giggling girl may sober down when she gets older, but the loud-mouthed girl is likely to become louder. Neatness is an essential characteristic of womanliness. The cloths may be poor, the wardrobe may be limited, but the true lady is neat in her dress. The slovenly girl who indulges in loud talk, marred by slang, could cultivate neatness, gentleness of voice and purity of language.—Ex.

Tillman and recited with great effect by Henrietta Vinton Davis before a company of colored soldiers at Fort Reno, Oklahoma, many of whom were in the charge at San Juan: Watch as they march from the West to the sea, Cavalry brave and infantry brave; Men who have fought, so the records say, Like lions, on the frontiers far away. "Black Buffalos," the Indians called them first, But when in the fight, they got the worst Of that awful burst of shot and shell, They turned and rushed away pell-mell. There were Negroes fighting at Bunker Hill, In 1812, they were at it still, And when they were called in '61 Thousands shouldered a government gun. Ne'er should the love of their country wane, For the black boys who sank in the gallant Maine, Nor the heroes who charged with such good will And saved the Rough Riders at San Juan Hill! Loyal? I guess so; game till death, Braver soldiers never drew breath. Just treat them like men, 'tis all they ask, And then they are ripe for the sternest task! IN HAWAII AND THE PHILIPPINES At some future time when the American people desire really to solve the race problem in the United States and to reassure the Filipino, let them appoint some such able Afro-American as Booker T. Washington to be governor of the Philippine islands, with sympathetic fellow-commissioners, and I believe that, while such appointees would give general satisfaction to the Filipinos, a large number of the Afro-American people would desire to live under the American flag in the Philippine islands, with the firm hope and belief that at some future time the constitution would follow. I have been to the Hawaiian islands and I am in love with the place, but I would not care to live there. If I had untold wealth I would like to go there and dream—that is what the place is made for. As for going there to make a living, one could not make a greater mistake. The climate of the Hawaiian islands is a dream, it is perfect, but it costs money and lots of it to live there. Those of the dominant element are descendants of New Englanders who went there two or three generations ago; they are Yale and Harvard graduates; they are immensely wealthy, and as they are about one-tenth of the entire population and control nearly all the wealth, one can see that the country is no place for a poor man. In the Philippines it is the direct opposite. Although the country has just been visited by war, pestilence and famine, it is rapidly recovering. The Filipinos are a very independent class of people. And they are right. Had the Negro instituted the same mode of conduct and retaliation 20 years ago as the Filipinos did two or three years ago, things would be vastly different today. If you step on a Filipino's corn he will step on yours; if you pop him in the jaw, he The Pollard Liliputian Opera Co. Scene from THE BELLE OF NEW YORK Scene from SEATTLE THEATRE JULY 12 will pop you on the same place. And in this way he has earned the respect of the whites. Living there at present is very expensive. But under proper governmental control it is the ideal place for the Negro. It is the climate he likes, or the climate he can stand. The whites cannot live there and make a living. If they live at all it is as a parasite. The white man may go there and suck blood-he cannot make it; for the white man in that climate is the most listless being imaginable. The Filipino and the Negro get along splendidly in a social way. It seems that the white and the Negro cannot, and it is just as much a matter of general knowledge that the white man and the Filipino cannot agree; and from the knowledge of these facts, I do not hesitate to say that I long for the time when the Afro-American may go to the Philippine islands and live there as he should and would live. The islands are possessed of wonderful possibilities. The mountains are the repositories of untold mineral wealth, the foothills are ideal grazing grounds; the plains will grow almost any kind of grain, and in the fertile valleys may be cultivated and brought to the highest perfection almost any fruit that grows. The people are not only pleasant and sociable, but they are intelligent and active. They have had their former ideas concerning American institutions and American ideas sadly abused within the past two or three years, and it will take some hard work and unceasing teaching to overcome the prejudices already planted there. The Spread of Lawlessness. Within a month mob lawlessness in Illinois, Indiana, in Delaware, in Massachusetts,—with white men inciting and leading the mob in each instance, with black men and white men as the victims—added to the chronic exhibitions of mob activity in the Southern States—where are we drifting? How much further can this sort of thing go before the sober sense of the Republic will assert itself, before law and order and not the mob shall safeguard life and property? How long? The life of the Republic is at stake. Let no man deceive himself. A repetition of the frightful excesses of the French Revolution, in which the innocent and the guilty, the young and the old, women and children, all alike, were sacrificed to hate and prejudice and savage passion, so that red blood flowed through France like water and property was destroyed which never can be replaced. We face this sort of calamity. It is anarchism. It is abroad in our land, and the dread phantom of its stalks before every home. When the voice of reason is unheeded, when passion and hate and prejudice rule, when law and order are flouted and trampled under foot, and the guardians of the law are overawed or take sides with the enemies of society—we have reached that point in our history, and they who love their country may tremble for its future.—The New York Age. J. W. Castles, president of the Hibernia Bank & Trust Company of New Orleans, the largest financial institution of the South, who was in New York for a few days on his way to Europe, chatted at the Waldorf-Astoria to a Sun reporter about the present great industrial prosperity of the Southern States. Among other things he was reported as saying: "There is a colored man in New Orleans who is worth $1,000,000. He comes into my office occasionally to talk affairs over with me, and he is just as welcome there as anybody else. He isn't a depositor with us, either. I wish he was. There are two other Negro merchants there who are depositors, and I would be perfectly willing to lend them $10,000 on their singlename paper. The Negro is respected in the South. These men I have just mentioned conduct business with white merchants and are respected by them. There are plenty of good merchants among them and they and the white men who do business with them get along all right together. I don't suppose the white men invite the Negroes to their dinner tables." *** The only monthly magazine published in the United States under the auspices of colored folk, after a two-months' suspension, has been revived, and the last issue was a very creditable one. All of its articles were well written and to the point, but unfortunately the proprietors of the new venture were vain enough to have their own pictures printed in the first issue, which means that the venture is doomed to fail from the very outset. The individual, company or concern in the publishing business that takes its own paper in which to exhibit the proprietors' faces thereof, is a failure from the very beginning. The mightiest orator of the Negro race was fond of saying that the very best way to judge the Negro was to look downward whence he came, and not upward whither he goeth. This is a safe canon for judging any people, and it finds a scientific support in the accepted theory that pedigree or history and environment are two of the three creative factors in the life of a people.—Rev. J. W. S. Bowen. --- The facts fully support the statement that American Christianity has achieved a work in the conversation and elevation of the Negro such as cannot be surpassed in the history of missionary effort.—Rev.

While the immediate results to the city was a split ticket, yet it is counted a victory for the anti-Ankeny forces, or the Boxers; and this in spite of the fact that Ankeny imported to his assistance his trusted Democrat lieutenant, George Stevenson, and the well known Tacoma politician, Link Davis, state senator for Pierce county. $6.00 Per Month Sherman, Clay & Co. STEINWAY DEALERS THE NETTLETON LAUNDRY TONGS The only attempt at an explanation of a cloudburst that we have so far seen is by a Portland educator, as follows: "In the first place it must be understood that a cloudburst was a mass of visible vapor, or a collection of water particles, floating in the air. These liquor particles form what might be called a water dust of exceeding fineness. When one realizes what the immense weight of water which some clouds contain, their suspension in the air appears remarkable. The capacity of the atmosphere for containing and supporting water vapor is much greater than might be supposed, and this capacity is doubled with every 27 degrees increase of temperature. For instane: A cubic foot of fully saturated air at a temperature of 80 degrees will hold over ten grains of water. At 60 degrees it will hold 5.8 grains. If a vast cloud extending thousands of feet up into the atmosphere is suddenly chilled and its temperature changed from 80 to 60 degrees, nearly five grains of water must fall from every cubic foot as rain. Thus when a vast cloud is chilled suddenly a sudden flood of rain falls over the area it covers. This is called a cloudburst, and where the surface on which this sudden flood of rain falls slopes rapidly the water of course rushes down the grade, and if collected in a narrow gorge, causes great destruction."

The Liberty Bell and Its Travels. to the supreme bench, It is a place of high honor and vast timber districts being fast stripped of their nat Honor and glory, flowers and pretty women, graced the journey of the venerable Liberty bell from Phila- delphia, whence it was taken, June 15, to Faneuil Hall, Boston, where it was acclaimed the honored guest at the celebration of the anniversary of Bunker Hill, The old bell is a famous traveler. Five times it has wan- dered forth to gladden patriotic eyes, In January, 1885, it made a trip to New Orleans. In April, 1893, it took a jaunt to the World’s Fair. It made two trips to ‘way down South in Dixieland. In October, 1895, to Atlanta, and in January of last year to the Charles- ton Exposition. At the Hub of the world the bell was escorted by the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Com- pany ; it was adorned with wreaths, played at by bands and cheered by patriots, made the subject of patriotic speeches and kissed by enthusiastic ladies, It had a glorious outing, even though Governor Pennypacker disapproved of frivolous junketing at its advanced age. Its next important public appearance will probably be at the St. Louis Exposition —Collier’s Weekly. Farcical Court Decisions. We do not like to criticise our courts, but it does seem, sometimes, that they go out of their way to render what seems to be unjust decisions, and to nullify the acts of the legislature, Yielding to popular demands, and in keeping with our professions of being a civilized people, the legislature place some laws upon the statute books restraining certain generally accept- ed evils, men, for the sake of gain, desire to practice those things condemned as harmful, and too often do so, notwithstanding the law forbidding it. Just now every effort is being made to break down or render inoperative the law making gambling a felony, Dur- ing the present week, friends of lawlessness and those who desire to get the coin of their fellows without rendering equivalent return, have gained a point, We réfer to the decision in our superior court to the effect that a merchandise paying slot machine is not a gam- bling device, under the meaning of the felony act; but to operate one is simply a misdemeanor. This is the splitting of a hair that possibly will stand in court, and of course is very satisfactory to the gam- bling fraternity; but it clearly nullifies the intent of the legislature. Why is it that so many of our courts feel it incufiibént pon them to give the benefit of every doubt to the enemies of moral law and honest methods is more than the average layman can under- stand, unless some mercenary motive, that we would not imply or intimate be attributed. If a question of doubt comes up in a case like that, it would com- port more with the dignity of the high office of a judge to give law, order, right and protection to the people, the benefit of that doubt, and thus throw the burden ‘of proof to the contrary on those who desire to make merchandise out of the wrong, instead of giving them the right to continue in their unjust practices and make an outraged public bear the burden of sus- taining the point or submit to the wrong. There is too much temporizing with these things, and the of- ficer of the law, whether it be judge or constable, who thus juggles with the safeguard of the people, fails in accomplishment of that duty for which he was chosen, In the strict sense, any device or transaction that offers a chance of nothing for something, or of something of value for less than its equivalent, is gambling, whether it be of money or merchandise, and all attempts to get around it is a juggling with facts that bring contempt upon the institution of the court and those who render such farcical decisions. Chief Justice Cleveland. It is said that Chief Justice Fuller wishes to re tire from office, but retains his place in the hope that the Democrats may elect a president in 1904, in which event his successor would be a member of his own party, It has been suggested, in view of the strong probability that President Roosevelt will succeed him- self in the White House in 1905, that he could put the chief justice at ease, prove his own desire to preserve the non-partican character of the supereme court, and pay a fitting compliment to his only living predecessor by inviting Grover Cleveland to accept the office of chief justice—assuming that Mr, Fuller is really eager to retire, There is some talk of Mr. Cleveland ob- taining a fourth nomination in the Democratic na- tional convention ; but it would be the height of cruelty on the part of his friends to cause his nomination, granting that they could do it, since he could not pos- sibly be elected, But, as a lawyer and an ex-president, he has an uncommonly useful equipment for the chief justiceship, It would also establish a precedent for the settlement of that oft-recurring but useless ques- tion of “What should be done with ex-presidents?” Where an ex-president has the legal qualifications it would seem eminently proper that he should succeed to the supreme bench, It is a place of high honor and dignity not beneath the acceptance of any man. American Invasion of Canada. John Howard Todd, in the July National Maga- zine, points out some facts about the American in- vasion of Canada not generally known. While it is true, in this hustling twentieth century era, we have the news of the world, along with our favorite dish of breakfast food, served up to us every morning; yet it is also a fact that we do not get all the news; or, getting it, dished up to us after the manner of the liash that follows our mush—if we are so unfortunate as to breakfast at the proverbial boarding house—we are liable not to assimilate it all (the news, we mean, not the hash), so a great many things of vast import- ance to the world at large are apt to pass us without our having been duly impressed with their sig- nificance, Every one knows that the past few years has seen a heavy immigration into the British terri- tory lying north of the Western portion of the United States, It is also known that a good many of Uncle Sam’s citizens are going there, “but the average per- son has not come to understand the magnitude or meanng of this movement of population,” says Mr. Todd, “American farmers are migrating by tens of thousands across the border into Canada. From the states 40,000 farmers flocked to Northwest Canada in 1902, Judging from this season’s rush there is reason to believe there will be 100,000 go there in 1903. Thirty-five per cent of all the emigrants into Canada were from this country, During 1902, Americans homesteaded 825,000 acres of agricultural lands in the ‘granery of the British empire.’” At first thought it might be considered unfortunate that so many of our people are seeking a foreign soil. But it is not, It is only a move in the drama of the destiny of this government. Years ago the state- ment was made that “Westward the star of empire makes its way.” This process has been going on until that star has reached its last opportunity for a west- ern movement. Having reached the shores of the sundown sea, and looking across its billowy waves, it sees no opportunity for further progress, for on the other bank are not unoccupied lands, but hungry mil- lions, asking not for increased population, but for the products of civilization, Restless, strenuous Ameri- can citizens! are not ‘baffled or ‘discouraged’ because there are no more lands to the west to be conquered by peaceful occupation; stopped long enough only to get their bearings and the fact above noted is the result, The American citizens who are thus taking advantage of the opportunity afforded in the broad prairies and fertile valleys of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and Assiniboia are not lost to this nations they are but the leaven that shall set in motion the process that shall draw those provinces and eventually all the British possessions in North America under the broad folds of “Old Gloria,” the banner of the free. The Dominion Government, loyal to the crown, but more jealous of its own rights and privileges under it, are trying to stem the tide and avert what they are shrewd enough to see will follow, unless they can successfully combat it. The efforts they are em- ploying are to induce emigrants from the eastern provinces of their own land, the mother country and other English possessions to settle these lands in larger numbers than come from the States. “Men who survey this border-crossing movement in its larger aspect believe it has an impetus that never will be checked. As has been suggested, the westward tide in America has struck the wall of necessity and has been deflected north, Herein lies the national motive for the invasion of Canada; but there is an individual motive which promises to send two Yankees to one from all other countries, and when these shall have arrived in sufficient numbers that the country begins to have the appearance of being settled, then of their own motion, without solicitation from this side of the border, will they ask for the protecting arm of Uncle Sam to be placed around them. Eng- land will protest; it will take time and considerable diplomacy, but without the use of arms or the shed- ding of blood, British America on the north will join hands with Mexico on the south, as together they plight their allegiance to that flag—the Stars and Stripes—whose banner over, them means peace, pros- perity and righteousness.” Forestry and Irrigation. In this Puget Sound country where forests abound and where nature is so generous with her rains, we are apt to think that the questions of forestry and irrigation are matters that do not concern us, but whatever of material interest affect one part of our common country affects all parts, and located as Seattle is, the great entrepot of the Northwest, with a et a a ee TL Lee ard REP cae cee cc Oc re een aa anna, vast timber districts being fast stripped of their native wealth, and with great treeless plains and arid Stretches that are to be made to blossom as the rose by a practical and scientific application of forestry and irrigation, whose products will seek the markets of the world through this great mart of trade, and adding to the. wealth and importance of this city, it is but proper that we should feel an interest in that which is, in the future, to be such an important factor of the growth and development of the country, In this connection we regret to note that on June 17, at its annual spring meeting, the board of trustees of Cornell University decided to suspend instruction in the New York State College of Forestry, This action was brought about by Governor Odell’s veto of the annual state appropriation of $10,000 for the maintenance of the College of Forestry. This sus- pension, the trustees add, will hold until the state sees fit to provide means for again taking up the work, A number of states are panting trees on waste lands and forming forest reserves. In some cases the work is one of reforestation, and in others it is Proposed to make trees grow in regions like the sandhills of Neb- raska, which are unfit for agriculture and may be made useful as forested areas, Secretary Hitchcock, of the Interior Department, has ordered the withdrawal of 94,732 acres of land lying just south of the Arkansas’ river, in Kansas, being part of four counties, for a large experiment in forest planting similar to that made on the Nebraska forest reserves, The land will be set aside as a regular forest reserve in the usual manner, or President Roosevelt will be asked to set it aside for the direct purpose of experimental tree planting. The conditions are similar to those in Nebraska, the region being made up of wind-formed sand hills, now covered with bunch grass, There is no surface drainage and no possibility of cultivation, since the sand begins to drift as soon as it is tilled. Planting will be begun within the next year. The Bureau of Forestry has planted many acres of burned-over lands in the San Gabriel and San Ber- nardino mountains in Southern California during the past winter, Heavy rains helped the planters, and tle seeds of the November sowing have already germin- ated. This work has had the interest and co-operation of the country which it affects, Several new forest resetves have recently been created by Presidential proclamation. Two of these new reserves, the Logan and Manti, are located in Utah, The Logan forest reserve is situated near the northern boundary of the state, and is 182,080 acres in extent, The Manti reserve, covering an area of 584,- 640 acres, is in Central Utah, The Lewis and Clarke forest reserve and the Flathead reserve in Montana, along with new addi- tions to both, have been combined and will hereafter be known by the name of the former, The Lewis and Clarke forest reserve is now the second largest in the United States, containing an area of 4,670,720 acres, and is located in the northwestern part of the state. Commissioner Richards, of the General Land Office, has prepared a statemen* giving the exact amount of the fund set apart for the reclamation of arid lands under the irrigation act pf June 17, 1902. It shows a total of $7,530,338 for the years 1901 and 1902, distributed among the states and territories, as follows: Arizona, $81,773; California, $503,270; Col- orado, $628,995; Idaho, $507,448; Kansas, $49,135; Montana, $772,377; Nebraska, $235,194; Nevada, $23,- 414; New Mexico, $147,237; North Dakota, $1,227,- 496; Oklahoma, $1,008,795; Oregon, $910,961; South Dakota, $307,362; Utah, $146,824; Washington, $794,- 088; Wyoming, $385,762. The total for 1901 was $3,144,861, and for 1902 $4,565,516. The returns on the sale of pubic lands for the first three quarters of the present fiscal year indicate that the receipts will be about equal to the two preceding years, so that by the first of July the irrigation fund in the treasury will be about $15,000,000. Worth Thinking About. There is a good deal to think about in the treas- ury statement covering the fiscal year just ended. At first glance it is apparent that this is, as the late Hon. Thomas Brackett Reed said, “a billion dollar country.” The total revenues of the government, ex- clusive of the postal service, for the year aggregated $538,887,000, considerably more than half of the bil- lion for the biennial life of a congress, The expendi- tures were $506,176,000, The surplus revenues were $41,000,000 less than last year, due entirely to the re peal of internal revenue taxes by congress, but they were $9,710,000 greater than the estimate made at the time the repeal bill was passed. That nearly $10,000,- coo represents a percentage upon an excess of pros- perity not foreseen by the expert mathematicians of the treasury department. The office of the quartermaster-general of the army is actively engaged in the herculian task of reclothing the American army, and this work has assumed vastly greater proportions than is ordinarily the case, owing to the fact that with the present issuance of clothing to Uncle Sam's fighting men the new uniform is adopted and the old pattern discarded. The issuance of the new uniforms commence with the regiments returning from the Philippines, and the first one to be fully equipped with the new style of clothing will be the Fifth Infantry, which is expected to reach New York in August. The Navy Department has, by the acquisition of a site at Guantanamo, Cuba, just added the nineteenth link to a chain of American naval stations that extends around the world, and similarly, by the selection of Bahia Honda, also in the new island republic, gains its sixteenth coaling depot. With Uncle Sam holding possession in all parts of the world and with a rapidly increasing navy, the importance of an adequate complement of naval coaling stations is a matter of vastly greater importance than most persons might imagine. At some of our naval coaling stations there are provided facilities for the storage of as much as 12,000 tons of fuel; and best of all, these stations are equipped with new and up-to-date machinery of American manufacture which enables the placing of coal aboard vessels much more readily than it can be done at depots of other nations. The Navy Department is testing five distinct systems of wireless telegraphy, and conducting a thorough trial of a new type of submarine torpedo boat, the Protector, which is different from the Holland type of craft in many respects. At several of our military posts the United States signal corps is seeking to determine the usefulness in warfare of automobiles and captive balloons, and the government has only recently decided, after a very thorough practical investigation, to dispense with the carrier pigeon service, and accordingly the cots at the various navy yards will be abolished and attention centered on wireless telegraph and other means of communication. In this connection a question is raised whether wireless telegraphy will work successfully during the unusual disturbance of the air currents, as occurs at the time of a great naval battle, for instance, and it is doubtful if this can ever be satisfactorily settled until it is tested at time of some such action; but it will no doubt be found of much assistance and certainly far superior, as it is much more speedy than carrier pigeons.

Rey. F. T. Walker is expecting his wife to join him within the next week. He has rooms on Eighth avenue near Jackson street. Mn Frank Anderson, who lives on Seventy-third street, is delighted at the prospects of having city water in the very near future. ‘A petition to the Czar of Russia in the interest of persecuted Jews in that country is being circulated and extensively, signed in this city. Hon, James Hamilton Lewis. a noted Chicagoian who was once a prominent Seattleite, has been renewing old acquaintances in the city for the past week. Capt. Delanty, of Jefferson county, who was a member of the last legis- lature, was among the distinguished visitors to Seattle within the past week. Dr. F. W. Sparling, who has been on a visit to the old country for the past seven months, is again on his old stamping ground, and is much im- proved from his visit. Mrs, J. H. Ryan was a Seattle vis- itor this week, and The Republican learned that it was in error about Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Ryan being on a visit to Ohio, it being Mr, Charles H. Ryan and wife instead. Dame Rumor reports a real romantic marriage among some of the Queen City’s well known young people in the persons of Miss Hazel Thompson and Mr, Walter Strauthers, May their voyage upon the matrimonial sea be smooth and pleasant.

SECOND AND UNION That there seems to be a slacking off in general business is no occasion for alarm, No doubt the season of the year has something to do with it; but there are some who think the crest of the general prosperity has been reached, Taking that view of the case, still no uneasiness need be felt, It does not. mean that it is the end of good times; it simply means that they will not continue to mount higher and higher; but, with every condition favorable, it is fair to expect them to continue on in this high level. Indeed, there is not the least indication of any other condition, Business will no doubt, from now on, assume less of the speculative and proceed along more conservative and solid lines, With an assur- ance that there will be no change in the administrative policy of the nation for at least five years, there seems to be no indication of anything but continued good times, but in all probability it will not be “booming” all the time. ond-hand real estate, or more speci- fically stated, unclaimed real estate, has been in progress at the Court House during the week, buyers have been plentiful, and choice pieces brought considerable more than the amount of taxes for which they were being sold. Geo. W. Parker, a director of the St. Louis exposition, who has been spending a few days in this city, has succeeded in creating an increased amount of enthusiasm, with regard to Seattle’s exhibit in the coming fair, which will, no doubt, result in a larger and better display than has been con- templated. Weatherman Salisbury needs to be fa little careful if he retains the kind- ly feelings now shown towards him. We are a peculiar folk, inclined to o'er much grumbling. While we do not like too much rain, and complain if it is a little too cool, we are partic- ularly fretful if it is too hot. What we like is to have it “just about right”—like the last few days, for in- stance. If our city council is really desirous of assimilating the outlying suburbs such scenes ase were enacted at last Monday night’s meeting should be cut out. Such opposition to improve- provements in outlying districts robs advocates of expansion of their very best arguments, and strengthens the belief held by those in suburban places that Seattle's chief desire in wanting them is for Seattle's self- aggrandizement, and not for their good, as is claimed. Some funny person phoned your scribe last week that one of our most charming young ladies contemplated taking an extended trip to Spokane. ‘We will say to all who are inclined to make false reports to remember’ the old story of the boy and the wolf. You may need our aid in the near future, and we may think that are a bit funny. We are aware of the per- son who gave the report, but for pitty sakes we will not expose you this time. A hint to the wise is sufficient. See? ‘The pastor, Rev. W. Walker and ladies of the Mt. Zion Baptist church are preparing to make things pleas- ant for the delegates who will attend the convention. Will give the church a thorough cleaning, putting a new carpet on the pulpit and down the aisles and have arranged to serve dinner and lunch in the basement. ‘They are expecting a large delegation. Mrs. Walker is expected to ar- rive here in time to attend the meet- ings. The pastor has sent for her already. The Seattle Blectrie Company's tourist car is now in its travels. It is of unusual dimensions, the sides being practically all of glass so as to permit of an unobstructed view at all times. In addition to the regular con- ductor, a superintendent is in charge and points out the objects of interest to passengers. The run begins at 2 o'clock every afternoon from the cor- ner of Second avenue and Pike street, and alternate routes are traversed on alternate days, each trip occupying about three hours. The fare is 50c. Quite a large audience attended | services Sunday morning at the Mt. «on Baptist chureh, Dr. F. T. Walker preached an able sermon. The gener- al public are most cordially requested to attend services morning and even- ing. Next week will be an interesting one for the colored Baptists of the state, as theor annual convention will convene Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, Dr, R. H. Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn., will be present and many out of town visitors. Let every colored person in the city attend and learn of the great progress the Negroes are making. Pr Abe yet ah Ae A, On PR A prospectus of the Seattle Iron and Steel Company has reached our table. It is well printed on half-tone paper and with numerous _ illustra- tions, showing plant, mines, etc., with comprehensive descriptions, making a very attractive pamphlet. Iron has been the basis of many large fortunes ‘in the east, and no where have the elements and conditions combined to better advantage than in Western Washington. The blast furnaces are located at Irondale, near Port Town- send, and the raw ore and materials to reduce it to a finished product are available. Coal for coke, wood for charcoal, clay for fire brick, lime, manganese and all that is required are near at hand. A large amount of pig iron has already been produced, of an excellent quality, and the possi- bilities are unlimited. THE BAND CONCERT. ‘The initial benefit concert given at Ranke’s Hall on Thursday, July 9th, by Smith’s Seattle Cornet Band, was a success in every way. The hall was crowded with many of the Queen City’s representative citizens. This was one of the most pleasant and suc- cessful concerts ever given in this city. Much credit is due the members of the band. The.music rendered was both a revelation and a surprise to their many friends, The special fea- tures of the evening were the soprano solo by Mrs. B, Williams, which was loudly encored; also the solo by Miss B, Davis, The climax was reached when Messrs. Mead and Brook sang a duet “If You Loves You,” and played a mandolin and guitar duet. These princes of song are royal entertainers, and the audience showed their appre- proval by recalling them several times. The rendition of a country band, by Messrs. Will Cook and F. D. Withers, and therir trombone and cornet solos were of high order. The concert was under the direction of C. H. Harvey.
