Seattle Republican

Historical society SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The SEATTL POLITICAL POT=PIE Once in a while a teacher achieves a wide reputation, showing that really great men are found in the schoolroom. Mr. Leigh J. Hunt, the confidential adviser of the king of Corea, was a teacher in the public schools of Iowa, teaching at Mount Pleasant, superintending at Des Moines, and presiding over the Agricultural college at Ames. About twenty years ago he went to Seattle and became publisher of the Post-Intelligencer, and made it a very strong paper. He boomed the city tremendously in it and helped build up Seattle thereby. He rose as the city rose, and became president of a bank and a director in railroads, and other undertakings. In 1893 the crash brought him down and he owed over a million dollars. Next he came to New York and was sent to China to build a railroad, as a concession for one had been granted; but soon after his arrival the privilege was rescinded and so he went to Corea, where he became a fast friend of the king. He obtained a loan from Russia and as a reward received a large tract of land which contained mines of gold and silver; this was sol dto the Rothschilds and with the proceeds he returned to Seattle and paid off his debts. He will have considerable to say as to the fuutre policy of Corea.—New York Educational Journal. It is likewise claimed on very good authority that Mr. Hunt will have considerable to say about who will be Washington's next United States Senator. It is going the rounds of the pulpit, press and the politicians that L. S. J. Hunt, who at one time dictated Republican politics in both this state and county, is backing the senatorial aspirations of Hon. S. H. Piles, not only morally, but likewise financially. While Mr. Piles was East a few weeks ago it is claimed that Mr. Hunt gave him his check for $50,000, on which he was to make his senatorial campaign, and informed him (Piles) that if he needed more money all that he had to do was to call on Leigh Hunt and it would be forthcoming. All of which would seem to indicate that Mr. Hunt is even more remarkable than the School Journal had dreamed of him being, as he will be the power behind the throne if his Washington state plans do not miscarry, both in Corea and the United States. The P.-I.'s carton last Wednesday morning which shows Tacoma's 200 prominent citizens trying to overtake Senator Foster to inform him that he must not be a candidate for re-election, and the fleetness of foot of the Senator, even to the jumping of the Okanogan river, with the remark, "They never touched me," is to say the least the most ludicrous presentation of the Senatorial controversy that is going on in Pierce county at present that has yet been seen. Hon. Ed S. Hamilton has not announced his candidacy for the Senatorship, but it s said he will do so as soon as the "200" Business Men's Club can get close enough to Senator Foster to inform him that he must "go way back and sit down." The Senator, however, is not to be pulled off quite so easy, and so he is keeping out of the way of Hamilton's two hundred advance guard. "In my opinion it is by no means for the honor there is in it that Senator Foster desires a re-election, but the $6,000 per annum and the perquisites pure and simple that he wants a return. The Senator's highest ambition and happiest moments as a United States Senator are his salary and the times of drawing each installment," came from a well known Tacoma politician one day this week. "Thoroughly believing that it is the salary and not the honor that inspires Addison G. Foster to seek a return to the Senate, I am convinced that Mr. Hamilton's friends will never be able to persuade him to withdraw from the race in favor of Hamilton, and as Hamilton's friends will never support Foster again and a three-cornered political fight for Pierce county is not only probable but inevitable. It loks as though the fight will line up like this: Hamilton and his friends on one side, Foster and his friends on the other and Cushman and McBride on a third corner. With such a fight being waged with a vengeance it will only be a matter of a very short time before either Hamilton and his fol- --- VOL. X. NO. 14 . . . * * * * * * LE REPU SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1903 lowers or Foster and followers will ally themselves with Cushman and McBride, which will give the latter Pierce county in the next state convention. "Should Pierce county send a McBride delegation to the state convention and should this be the means of nominating the Governor, and should he be elected and should there be no show for Foster, as there would not be, assuming that it would be he and not Hamilton, who will combine with the Cushman-McBride forces, then Frank Cushman, who would have been previously re-elected to Congress, would at once become a formidable candidate for the senatorship, providing always the Governor, after casting over the situation, would be convinced that there was no show for his election. To say the least this state is going to see a royal mix-up before the next United States senator has been elected." The John D. Atkinson gubernatorial talk is still being heard. "I know of no man who has been spoken of in connection with the next Republican gubernatorial nomination that could be rallied round by all factions so consistently as John D. Atkinson," said a prominent politician from Eastern Washington. "If Governor McBride looses the nomination, and I think he will, the farmers and business men of that section almost as a unit would naturally turn to Atkinson as their candidate. 'The railroad folk' have no objection to him and therefore he stands a most excellent opportunity of getting the nomination." It is said that Charles Sweeny, of Spokane, the millionaire mine owner and promoter, wants to go as delegate to the next national convention of the Republican party and that he would like also to be named as national commiteeman for this state. A. B. Campbell, of Spokane, is also said to cherish an ambition to be a member of that delegation. Other than Spokane no other towns have offered suggestions on this subject.—Walla Walla Union. Dr. W. H. Hare has just returned from the Sound country, and when quizzed by the Washingtonian man he freely discussed the political situation here and elsewhere. We asked as to the talk about his being in the gubernatorial race, he laughed and said: "Oh, pshaw, the fellows have to have somebody to talk about, and that is perhaps why my name has been mentioned. But, frankly, to my mind, the winning candidate has not yet been named, but he'll be brought out later. I am convinced of this fact, namely: That the next Republican nominee will come from east of the mountains. We have had two—the last two beaten, and one was from Seattle and the other was from Tacoma, and now those people want it to come over this way." Doc does not mince words when he gets to talking about Governor McBride and his political aspirations. "McBride poses as the anti-lobbyist and such like, while it is a well known fact that at the last meeting of the legislature he had the biggest lobby of them all. But he's an impossibility as a candidate for governor and this is becoming more evident every day. Gradually he is losing his hold, if ever he had any. He is not a good politician, for he makes entirely too many 'breaks.' You may agree with him on practically everything, except some minor matter, and then it is all off. To my way of thinking it is going to take a candidate who is not an out-and-out anti-railroad man, nor should he be too favorable to those interests. Such a man can win out, and such a man will sooner or later be brought into the race," confidently remarked Mr. Hare. He also gave his private opinion regarding some local matters, but these were not intended for the public.—North Yakima Washingtonian. Two weeks ago the Piemaker indulged in a few pertinent remarks bearing on the local municipal situation, all of which was eagerly read by the hundreds and hundreds of readers of the Seattle Republican. Not much as yet has been said on this subject, despite the fact that the next municipal convention will be held in less than five months from this writing, and unless the Piemaker is sadly mistaken it's only a calm before an awful storm that will rage with terrific effect prior to and after the next Republican municipal convention. A great many Republicans are very Conclusion * * * *** * * * *** * * * LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 BLICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS much displeased at the way municipal affairs have been conducted in the recent past and they are so badly displeased that they are overripe for a change, many believing that it would be utterly impossible to do any worse than what has been done. *** It seems that it is the concensus of opinion among the Democrats that William Pigott, the well known promoter and business man of this city, be the unanimous choice of the party for mayor. Thus far he has shown no decided opposition to the move, which leaves the impression among those who make politics a study that he will accept the nomination if unanimously tendered to him. If Mr. Pigott is nominated by the Democrats, owing to the unsettled and topsy turvy condition of the Republicans, the Piemaker is inclined to believe he will be Seattle's next chief executive. Mr. Pigott is very popular to start out with; he is a thorough business man in the second place, and has the confidence of many of the leading Republicans of the city, as well as the Democrats, and will for these reasons give any Republican nominee for mayor a mighty close race for his money. *** It will be remembered that J. W. Goodwin, the Democratic nominee for mayor in 1902, lacked only 600 votes of defeating Mayor Humes, and he certainly would have defeated him had not such leading Democrats as the Harts, Walter Fulton and their friends openly fought his election at the polls. An army of Republicans seemed determined to elect Mr. Godwin, but the Democrats would not stand for it, hence Mayor Humes was re-elected by a plurality of only 600, while his colleagues ran as high as 3600 majority over their opponents. The conditions in Republican ranks have not greatly changed within the past two years, and it is believed that a great many Republicans are of the opinion that a change of politics for two years will greatly benefit the city, and if the Democrats will for once use god judgment and nominate such a thorough-going business man as William Pigott the Republicans will flock to him as they did to J. T. Ronald some twelve years ago. The Piemaker is no advocate of a "change," but it seems to be in the wind and it is the duty of the Piemaker as a Republican journalist to warn the party of the impending danger that it too may name as its standard bearer a no less sterling business man than Mr. Pigott. WISE AND OTHERWISE The Missouri woman who carries several thousand dollars in her bustle has something pretty substantial to fall back on of a rainy day or when the frosts of age make the footing slippery. *** There is only one reason to assign why the spectacular Carrie Nation has not been secured as a writer on the Hearst combination of yellow journals, and that is from the fact that she poses as a reformer and a moralist. If she was the reverse of these, having reached her present degree of notoriety, she would be an invaluable acquisition, to the yellows. * * * Too Much Smith, or Smith with too much profanity, has been an affliction that the people of South Seattle have borne until patience ceased to be a virtue, and the Smith with the vile tongue was brought before the court that South Seattle might be releaved in some way. It seems to be a peculiar case and whether it is insanity, a physical weakness or unadulterated cussness that affects the man, it seems hard to tell. But he swears, and swears and then swears some more. The court has sentenced him to a life of voluntary isolation, with an alternative of the insane asylum. *** Lack of moral character, deception, a double, desolate life, defalcation, suicide. This in brief is the summing up of the life of C. M. Murfin, whose dead body was found out near Lake Washington a few days ago. He left behind an insurance policy to cover his stealings, a broken hearted woman, who thought she was his legal wife, but was not, and a mother whose grey hairs he has loaded with sorrow to her grave. The wages of sin is not only death to the sinning, but blight and sorrow to innocent ones. the shifting, Wise and Otherwise Things may be said to be hopping over in the Yakima country. They are in the midst of the hop harvest. The present financial situation may not be alarming, but only a Fish could muster up the audacity to put it in print. It is said that there is a strike in the city, but the most diligent research has failed to locate it. Certainly it is a false alarm. The state militia will go into its annual encampment at American lake on the 14th inst., and will play soldier until the 23d. The Snohomish county fair held during the week has been a success. The exhibition of stock, products, etc., was large and the attendance good. There may be some people willing to tie up with a dead one for sentiment's sake, but Vashon Island shows she is not built that way—no Tacoma for her. That offer made for the Bon Marche property made its owner Tremble in his boots lest the would-be purchaser change his mind, and despite his tremblings the fellow backed down. The latest paper filed in court purporting to be a distribution of one of California's millionaire's property does not seem quite so Fair to some people at least as a former one. Says the White River Journal: "Auburn is a good town for some newspaper man to start a paper and conduct it in a gentlemanly manner." Quite right you are, neighbor, but it is not a whit better than Kent for it. Walter G. Clark may be able to palm off his second hand junk on some folk, but City Engineer Thomson gently but firmly showed that he had "hit" the wrong man when he tries to work it off on him. Oh! the gaul of some men. It would seem from the way Spokane's Superior Court judges are going after the acts of the last legislature that the denizens of the Inland Empire city propose to rule, and having failed to rule they are now out to ruin. The Ballard street car ran over the N. P. passenger train the other evening out near that suburb; but as it was on the trestle that carries it high above the N. P. track no one was hurt and both car and train sped on their way. Dog thieves seem to be working overtime in Chicago, and, according to the dispatches, the citizens are really indignant over their operations. Come out here, fellows, and get a free license to kill and eat every canine in the town. The daily press is full of all kinds of reports from Turkey, Mascedonia and adjacent countries, with more or less of massacres, riots, battles, etc. The situation looks serious, and it s impossible to guess where it will end or what the outcome will be. North Yakima and Yakima City are trying to get together. They are five miles apart now, but the similarity of their names is an annoyance that they would feign remove; hence the proposition to consolidate as one municipality and one name, Yakima. "When the hour of trouble comes to the mind or the body, and when the hour of death comes, that comes to high and low, then it is not what we have done for ourselves, but what we have done for others that we think of most pleasantly."—Sir Walter Scott. Late advices from Oyster Bay are to the effect that a lunatic was after Roosevelt the other day. Just which one of the many millions looking for an office of some kind it was that hounded the footsteps of our chief executive was not explained by the dispatches. King Solomon of old was a great woman charmer, and it seems that his swarthy offspring, who until recently dispensed supernatural wisdom to Seattle's unfortunate Anglo-Saxons, is no less seductive, and, like his ancestor, is no respecter of nationalities to captivate. An exchange remarks: "Now comes the man who committed suicide by shooting himself 'near the ocean beach.'" For the sake of learning something we must confess our ignorance, and rise to inquire what part of the human anatomy is the "ocean beach"? --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN There are strikes and strikes. Here in Seattle we have teamsters' strikes, street car strikes; sometimes the policemen have to strike a refractory citizen; office me nare struck by all sorts of charitable and get-rich-quick agents; but the gold strikes that are being made in Alaska are the best kind yet reported. Lieut. Perry has secured a three years' leave of absence and will make another "dash" to try and capture the North Pole. If he succeeds and brings it home with him, then the management of some future Seattle carnival can get the loan of it for a side attraction; it would no doubt prove a winner. Sticking to the ship until it sinks is commendable if anything is to be gained thereby, but where it is only to gratify a morbid sentiment and means destruction to the sticker the unsympathetic world calls it foolishness. That is about the estimate placed upon the Democratic party in Nebraska in still clinging to the dead Kansas City platform. Only men of sterling business qualities in future, so says President Roosevelt, will be permitted to do the consular act for the United States. If such a modus procedure is carried out diplomatic relations will necessarily have to be discontinued on the part of Uncle Sam with a great many foreign governments for lack of suitable representative materials. The federal grand jury has returned seven more indictments in postal cases, involving six persons, and arrests are being made. The talk of the Democratic press for some time past that this business would all be smothered and officials whitewashed does not seem to "wash," and there is grave danger that they will lose another subject for campaign argument. The pleasant life of an aeronaut does not seem to be without its perils. After an upward flight the other evening for the amusement of carnival goers, the Prof.(?) in seeking a soft place to light, found it in the bay. But for his ability to swim as well as to sail aloft, and the presence of a friendly log, he would have lost out in his "shake the dice with death" on that trip. An effort has been made to have a portion of King County, lying not far from Tacoma, annexed to Pierce County, but has failed Last Saturday the voters of Maury Island and the southern part of Vashon Island voted upon the question and a majority of them were satisfied to let well enough alone, and will continue to be a portion of King County, despite the alluring smiles of Pierce. The Mining Congress has been in session at Deadwood and Lead during the week, and has attracted a good deal of attention. Secretary of the Treasury Shaw was in attendance as special representative of President Roosevelt and addressed the Congress. J. H. Richards, president of the Congress, spoke heartily in favor of a department of mines with its head a member of the cabinet. Whether one realizes it or not, the school teaching force in this country is a mighty army. As a little idea in this state, there were 1318 applications at the August examination; 191 of these was for the purpose of raising their grade, 367 had never had teaching experience. Of the 1318 applications 970 passed and received certificates, 93 first grade, 551 second grade and 362 third grade. The remainder were renewals on certificates. Women in Madison Square observed a man attempting to hug a girl of 14. The way they set upon the fellow would have made a bargain counter rush seem the merest play. They beat him into insensibility and would have killed him had the police not come to the rescue.—Tacoma Ledger. That was an unusual display of jealousy, but then the provocation was great. To think of a man hugging a girl of fourteen, when—well; when, there were others. Reasoning from analogy, it would seem that labor unions are the greatest and most rapid school for the turning out of finished workmen that ever existed. According to labor leaders non-union men are all incompetents; there are none who can do good work; but let these same men join a union and they are immediately recommended as competent workmen, able to fill any position or do any work required in their class. It is a wonderful transformation that takes place. A movement has been begun to organize a stock company to establish a silk weaving plant in Fairhaven by parties who were for years engaged in the silk business in Paterson, N. J., the center of that industry. The promoters desire to raise $2,500 with which to put in their first loom and they intend afterwards constantly to enlarge the plant. The raw material for the factory will be shipped from the Orient. A great part of the money has been raised and it is expected to have the loom in operation by Christmas. The prune crop in Clarke county will be larger than ever in the history of the county, and the fruit of excellent quality. The fruit men have their dryers and apparatus all ready to handle the crop, and if good weather ensues the fruit will be disposed of in good shape. So far the market appears weak, and the dealers are not offering fancy prices. About 4 cents is the average. As the fruit growers are pretty well off financially, as a rule, the dealers have not made many contracts, the growers preferring to hold on to their product to see how the price comes out.

With the opening of the public schools it is well to brush up -on school law, especially that part that makes it obligatory upon parents and guardians to send their children, between the ages of eight and fifteen years, to school at least four months during each ycar, except children in poor health and those who receive training at home in the same branches as is taught in the schools. A pen- alty of from $20 to $50 is imposed upon conviction of persons neg- lecting to comply with this wise law. If a few more laws, passed by the last legislature, are found to be unconstitutional, people will soon begin to inquire what they got for their money, However, the gambling felony law that so far has stood the test is worth it all; yet it does seem that a little discretion in the framing of laws would prevent the undoing of so many. It would seem that some provision might be made for the courts to pass upon proposed legislation before it is enacted, and thus have it when it comes forth as a creature of the legislative solons, that it will be sound law. It takes time and expense to pass these acts up to the Supreme Court, to say nothing about the an- noyance caused by having a verdict of unconstitutional handed down. : Capitol : Hill...

LUMBER EXCHANGE BUILDING PHONE MAIN 60 While a person in public life cannot afford to notice and at- tempt to answer all the things that may be said about him by the the opposition press, yet Senator Ankeny has done well in denying the report that was put out in this state, by the Democratic press, to the effect that he is opposed to President Roosevelt and will do all he could to prevent a Roosevelt delegation to the next con- vention from this state. Such a false statement, not contradicted, would work an injustice both to Mr, Ankeny and President Roose- velt. The object for starting it is very apparent. Senator Ankeny states that there is absolutely no truth, either for foundation or for fact, in such stories. He is a warm friend of President Roosevelt and will do all in his power to aid his nomination and election. Now comes a wiseacre of a professor who says this gravity ball, this mundane sphere, contains all there is of human life in the wide universe; that the other worlds and systems of world’s that swing so majestically in space and spin their endless cycles round are wholly devoid of life. He did not state when he returned from his tour of inspection, or how long he was on the trip, and as we have not made the trip ourself we are not disposed to contradict him. This statement, however, jars some with that of the other learned professor who recently announced that the inhabitants of Mars were trying to get a wireless telegraphic connection with this sphere. It begins to look as though the more learning we have the less we know. YOUR PIANO OUR PRICES TERMS ARE THE LOWEST $6.00 Per Month Sherman, Clay & Co. The thanks of the nation are due to the officers of the law in Danville, Ill, Nineteen out of twenty-one rioters arrested for try- ing to break into jail there and lynch a prisoner have been con- victed of assault with intent to commit murder, and will “serve time.” That fact, coupled with the action of the sheriff at the time of the mob in manful resistance and preventing them from carry- ing out their designs will do more to deter mobs than any other thing that could be done, If there is anything a mob respects it is a wholesome application of law. With the penitentiary gaping open before them, people will think twice before they will become part and parcel to a lawless mob, In connection with this if speedy justice is meted to those whom mobs delight to torture, we may reasonably hope to see the speedy passing of this revival of barbarism. THE NETTLETON LAUNDRY » TONGS as ee ee “Three times and out” applies with double significance to the efforts of Sir Thomas Lipton to lift the American cup, He has made three successive attempts and three times defeated, This year three successful sails were pulled off and the third vessel that had been built for the express purpose of proving the superiority of English boat-building skill was so badly outclassed as to fail to make the races really interesting. Every one, with the least bit of sportsmanship in his composition would have been pleased to have seen Shamrock III win about two out of the five trials that ewould have been made if it had been necessary, Whether it really amounts to anything or not America still stands at the head of the list as a yacht building nation and is still ready to defend the honor against all comers. It is understood Sir Thomas will not issue another challenge. Since the America brought the cup to this country twelve British yachts have challenged for it and thirty-one races have been sailed, The American boat has won thirty and the British boat one—in 1871, when Columbia was disabled, after thoroughly beating the challenger Livonia in the preceding race. The New York Yacht Club then substituted Sappho for Columbia and took the next two races by 30 minutes 21 seconds and 25 min- ates and 27 seconds, respectively.

There seems to be gambling and gambling, and from the court decisions it is hard to tell what kind of gambling is felony gambling and what kind is just gambling. It is something like the old recipe for telling edible from poisonous mushrooms, i. e., to eat them; if you live they are the edible variety, if you die they are poisonous. Some learned judge, in his wisdom, has decided that what is known as pool room gambling is not of the felony variety, so if one wants to violate the law without danger of having to go to the pen, he must bet on the races, on the rise and fall of stocks and bonds; or as per another decision, play poker, or whatever little game his weakness leads to, in a quiet, private, gentlemanly way, as an innocent pastime, otherwise, well, the sheriff might get you if you don't look out. Can Live on Women. Another law that has been declared unconstitutional by a superior court judge is that making it a felony for a man to live off the earnings of a fallen woman. Of all the blights on the face of the body politic, these leaches that subsist upon the festering rottenness of fallen humanity are the most despicable, and a law making such a life a felony was the very best thing that could happen to them; for whether they would appreciate it or not, to send them to the penitentiary would be a blessing in disguise; for a penitentiary existence is the life of a prince as compared to freedom and a life as they lead. Without discussing the merits or demerits of the constitutionality of the law, it would seem that if one half the effort put forth to find the law not unconstitutional that is sometimes used to find certain acts are in conflict with the organic law, were used, that the public would be better served and come nearer getting what they are supposed to pay for when they employ judges. To repeat what was said a few weeks ago, in substance: it is strange that high officials seem to think it incumbent upon them to give the benefit of every doubt to the law ignoring, law defying and criminal classes, when if any difference the side of moral right and that which tends to higher and better citizenship should be favored. Uncle Sam's Labor Day. Last Monday was Labor Day, and it was generally celebrated in Seattle by the closing of all public offices and places of business for the greater part of the day. There was no exercises in recognition of the day, but a great many people went to Tacoma and participated in the parade and celebration there. The people of this country recognize and celebrate various holidays, but Labor Day is unique in that it is the only legal holiday, or the only day set apart by legal enactment as a rest or recreation day. In view of the fact that labor is the ground work of the nation and the laborer is the bulwork of the same, it was very proper that the day should have this special distinction. Other holidays are in commemoration of some specific event, which in most cases marks the date, but in this case, in recognition of the majesty of labor, and in honor of those who toil, the day was especially designated and the nation does well to step aside and give it proper recognition. William Patchen's Punishment. A few weeks ago William Patchen and Dr. Van Waters were arrested in this city for the crime for which Negroes are often burned when detected or even suspected. Last week Patchen had his constitutional rights, a trial by a jury of his peers, and was found guilty, the testimony being very strong. A sentence of twenty-one years has been imposed, which to a man sixty years of age means life. But he should thank his lucky stars that the law does not permit a death penalty, for if there is any crime deserving of death it is that for which he stands convicted. As the evidence in the Van Waters case will be practically the same, he will undoubtedly have a chance to mend teeth or some other permanent job at Walla Walla for some time to come, also. Now let the good work go on, and while possibly men cannot be reformed by law, yet law, or the vigorous enforcement of the same, may deter such vile leaches as these from debauching the childhood of the race. No Hunter's License. Very few people in the state, we take it, outside of those who would like to have a monopoly of the hunting privilege, but who will rejoice that the gun license law has been declared unconstitutional. While there may have been a redeeming feature in the law, the average person was unable to see it. A dollar a year is not very much to pay for the privilege of hunting, yet it is carrying restriction a little too far, as a general principle; but to require that a separate license and another dollar for each county in which one might desire to shoot, was an annoyance as well as a burden. Then on the other hand to require that a farmer should not shoot the game on his own lands that has been reared there and lived and fattened at his expense, that is morally as much his own property as the fowls in his barn yard, or the pigs in his sty, without first sending to the county seat and getting a license, was carrying things altogether too far. Wholesome game laws, vigorously enforced, are a necessity, but that does not make an excuse for foolish or vicious legislation. The Seattle Spirit. An idea is suggested in a news item which states that Tacoma manufacturers will unite in making a display of all its manufactured products of the valley fair at Puyallup. The idea is this: that Seattle through its Manufacturers' Association, the Chamber of Commerce, or some other organization, should maintain, in a proper manner and at some suitable place a perpetual exhibition of output of its manufactures for the enlightenment of its citizens, and to show visitors what we are doing. Such an exhibition would pay the manufacturers from an advertising standpoint, as it would create an interest in local productions and the Seattle spirit would lead to a larger demand for home made goods. It is more than likely that but very few people know all that is manufactured here. A gathering together of local manufactured articles would be invaluable to those contemplating the starting of new industries, by showing what is now here. What line, if any, is fully met or overdone, and what line is neglected, wholly or in part. Seattle could maintain a perpetual city fair and should do so. Resents Mt. Tacoma Now it's war among the roses at Olympia. Sammie Perkins, the Tacoma newspaper monopolist, has secured the Recorder of that city as a part of his aggregation, and as it is a Tacoma adjunct, of course it refers to "the" mountain as Mt. Tacoma. This causes the Olympian to boil over with wrath, declare that Olympia will not stand for it, quote authority to prove that Tacoma is only a local cognomen applied for advertising purposes, etc., etc. So the war is renewed from a new quarter. In this connection the following from the College Independent is significant: "Much has been said about the name of the great mountain. Rainier is the official name, given it in honor of a noted French explorer, but Tacoma people have for some time asserted that it should be called 'Tacoma,' giving as argument in favor of that label that it was the original Indian name. As a matter of fact, this is a mistake, for the mountain was called by the Indians 'Chebolips,' which means Lord of the Mountains. The Indian word 'Tahoma' was used by the red men to designate any snowy peak of all mountain ranges.' The Why of the Feuds. Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky, is reported as saying of the feudists of his state: "They are nearly all illiterate, half starved, and almost naked, yet they are the most hospitable people to be found anywhere. They are dirt eaters and quarrelsome. Many of their feuds are of a hundred years' standing, and I do not believe it possible to stop their fighting as long as the people continue to live. They have a peculiar code of honor. They never molest a woman, nor will they shoot an enemy accompanied by a woman or child. I knew Marcum very well. He was a fine fellow, and for seventy days he was able to protect himself simply by being accompanied by a woman or a child. But they were determined to get him, and waited their chance. These mountaineers never shoot except in the back. They always shoot from the bushes and never give a man a chance for his life. In their way they are honest. A stranger may stop with them in the meanest hovel and never have any fear of being robbed. The mountaineer will lie on the dirt floor and give his bed to the stranger. He will divide his food with him and will be insulted if offered any money for his hospitality, yet for $25 he would not hesitate to seize his rifle and hide in the bushes and shoot the first man who comes along. There have been various theories advanced to account for the peculiar nature of these people, and one is that many years ago all the escaped convicts from the adjoining states fled into the mountains of Kentucky for refuge, and their descendants are now raising the devil. It is born in them and nothing can eradicate it." Trade Unions and Socialism. According to D. M. Parry, trade unions and Socialism are synonymous terms. He says: "Organized labor is not only seeking to absorb with its tentacles all the manual workers of the cities and factories, but it is also reaching out to take in the farm laborers. Unions of the latter are reported to be rapidly growing in Illinois and Indiana. It is also stated that they are preparing to exact double the wages heretofore paid for this class of labor. If a compact organization of farm hands could be formed, a very serious problem would confront not only the farmers, but the entire country. There can be no doubt that such an organization would demand, with all the unreasonableness of ignorance, a wage scale that would greatly enhance the cost of living to each and every one and would in all likelihood bring about the ruin of our immense export trade in grain and flour. Organized labor and the Socialist party differ in one essential respect. The former seeks to bring about Socialism by forcible methods, and the later seeks the same end through the ballot box. Its attempts to compel the shortening of the hours of labor without regard to the effect on industrial welfare, its dictation of uniform wage scales, which place the indolent and inapt on the same footing with energy and capability, and the absolute power it arrogates to itself over the individual on the theory that the individual has no rights which the many need respect, are all cardinal principles of Socialism. Socialism is a denial of individual and property rights, and so, also, is trades unionism when reduced to its last analysis. Interdependence of Labor and Capital. In the modern industrial world, it is undeniably true that the great classes representing labor and capital are each alike pitiably helpless without the cooperation of the other. They are mutually and equally dependent upon one another for the opportunity to engage in productive enterprise. To this extent their interests are identical, and the theory of natural allies and friends holds true. And it is further to the interest of the community as an organic whole that these two should come together and co-operate peaceably. The harmony of interests so far between all parties is complete. There are, indeed, deeper and more intricate harmonies between both groups of producers, and between them and consumers, which the economist or the sociologist can point out. But these harmonies affect individuals only through society as a whole. Their nature is not easily grasped; and their effects are too remote to prove factors of importance in the individual's calculations. To the shorter-sighted and more practical, as well as more selfish, views, that rule in the workaday world of industry, this general harmony of interests appears to end about where it began. The world in which men employ and are employed, in which men buy and sell, is thus a world of clashing interests, and it is, therefore, and will remain, a world of strife. That strife may be tempered and kept within reasonable limits. Between employer and employed it ought to be confined to the conference room, and never be transferred to the field of open conflict. The best hope of industrial peace between these two groups lies in educating each to the realization that antagonistic interests can be compromised and treaties of peace arranged better before than after a test of strength has been made by an appeal to force. The hope for industrial peace between these two opposing forces lies in the direction of sane compromise, rather than in the futile belief that opposition of interests can ever be eliminated and replaced by identity. The first hope is practical the last, Utopian. Against the oft-quoted statement that "The free lunch is the redeeming feature of the saloon," Mrs. Chauncey Depew says some most valuable and significant things. She says: "The free lunch is largely responsible for the enslavement of young men to drink. As sure as a man eats a free lunch, just so sure will he be a drinking man, unless he is possessed of rare self-control. A man takes a drink and a bite. The bite makes him thirsty and the drink makes him hungry; and many a man who would leave a saloon after having imbibed one drink, will stick all day as long as the free lunch is there. It isn't the drink that keeps him, but the ingenious make-up of the free lunch, and that's why I say it's a blotch on civilization and should be wiped out." Bishop McCabe says: "The laboring people of this country spend more money for whisky and beer than the entire banking capital of the nation. In three years, by saving what they pour down their throats, they could have banks running in their interest with an aggregate capital of $3,250,000,000.

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.

Denny - Coryell Co. 716 First Avenue Representative Woods of Macon county., Ala., has introduced in the house of representatives, a bill which seeks to take from the Tuskegee normal school and the Negro normal school at Montgomery the annual appropriation from the agricultural funds. Interest is added to Mr. Wood's bill by the fact that he is a resident of the town of Tuskegee and represents the county in which the Tuskegee school is located, and that he only recently finished a term of office as mayor of Tuskegee. The bill of Mr. Woods seeks to repeal the act of 1895 establishing two branch agricultural schools for Negroes. One of the branch schools was at the time established in connection with the Tuskegee school, of which Booker T. Washington is the head. The other was placed with the state normal school at Montgomery. From the agricultural fund the Tuskegee institute received $1,500, and the Montgomery school is paid $1,000 annually.

In the report of the Board of Education the complaint is made that the average professional life of a woman teacher is only eleven years owing "to the havoc wrought by matrimony among this remarkably attractive class of the community." Widow Victor Marie Deransbourg, an Afro-American, supposed to have reached the age of 114 years, recently died at her home in New Orleans. According to statements made by members of the family the old woman was born in the year 1789. The largest conclave ever held by the Negro Knights of Pythias was recently held in St. Louis, over 500 delegates from all parts of the world were present. It was the fifth biennial conclave and delegates and representatives to the grand lodge, the supreme court of Calenthe and the international encampment of the uniform rank were in attendance. W. G. Clifford of Pottsville believes that he has solved the servant problem. He has completed arrangements with the Liberi-Migration Society of the South and several similar organizations to bring 25,000 Negro girls to the North. The girls will be used, not only as servants, but also as operatives in factories.—Southern Reporter. The Army and Navy Register takes it as a good omen that permission has been given to the officers on military duty in the Philippines to indulge in hunting expeditions. As long as the officers were hunting for Filipinos there was no necessity for them to organize a hunt for birds and wild game. If the hunting permission will avoid the necessity of further fighting it will be cordially outside military circles. the Loop sition ers Degree No. 1, W. O.

But what about the bad white man? Why should there be special legislation and special laws to apply to crimes committed by Negroes? The Negro is slowly learning the lesson of corporation. If he will but put his pennies together, he will have many thousand dollars. The Negro woman does not have the opportunity to develop as does the white woman; and in many instances, Negro men are unwilling either to give her a chance or assist when she has a chance. In a recent election of school commissioner of Carroll county, Tennessee, an Afro-American was elected over two white candidates. The two disgruntled individuals will contest the election with the intention of robbing him of his victory. When a white man is charged with crime, he is supposed to be innocent until he is proven guilty. His guilt must be proven. When a Negro is charged with crime, the presumption is that he is guilty, and if he hopes to escape, he must prove himself innocent, beyond all reasonable doubt. It is more than amusing to read the many theories advanced for the purpose of getting rid of the Negro, to check his progress, keep him in ignorance and enslave him. But they are in vain. The Negro will go on getting stronger politically, financially, educationally and morally, because hindrances and obstacles are placed in his pathway. Resistance always arouses energy, and the Negro's trials will be his salvation. Let the heathen rage!
