X. NO. 52 CAN THE POP The recent call issued by the members of the Populist party for a state convention to be held June 18th, with a view of electing delegates to its national convention, which will be held in Springfield, Ill., July Fourth, calls to mind the part played by the Populists in this state but a few years ago. That the reader may become more familiar with the subject which is herein briefly discussed a cut representing the former Populist leaders of the 1895 legislature is herewith printed. W. M. McArdle.

The above portraits represent the men who represented the Populist party of this state in the legislature of 1895, who voted to the last ditch for John R. Rogers for United States senator, who was himself a member of the legislature and was the acknowledged leader of the Populist party on the floor of the house of representatives.

The "Fusion" party lasted through 1896 and the campaign of 1898, but lost out immediately thereafter and the Democratic party succeeded it, which was a death blow to Populism.

Rogers, who was the candidate for United States senator in 1895, was subsequently elected governor of this state. Four years later he was re-elected, being the (Continued on page 3) Wise and Otherwise Wrongs of all kinds fall heaviest upon the innocent. Love that is love must endure to the end, and, too, must be self-forgetful. The public has little concern about what the Times thinks of the P.-I. or the P.-I. of the Times. Be good. The P.-I. is much exercised about the "knocker," so the P.-I. knocks the knocker. Yea, truly, the "knocker" is ever with us. Our preachers have raised their voices against divorce. They should cry out a little against reckless marriage, but they don't. No man or woman is wholly rounded in character, rests on a safe foundation, until they master self. There is much which may be unanswerably be said to the effect that work is a habit. Be it so, yet no one does good work unless in his soul of souls he loves work. Senator Turner favors Judge Parker as the nominee of the Democratic party, because "Judge Parker is conservative and well seasoned in years." Why is it that so many church-going women not only fail to obey a city law, but on request refuse to remove their hats. At the theatre they would be "bounced." The "I will trys" have been ruled off the course and their places are held by the more sterling "Do it nows." Let the good work go on. Man is progressive. Twenty-five years ago a so-called "health journal" was "scarcer'n hen's teeth." Now they are "thicker'n the hair on a dog." Progress? Long campaigns, come to think of it, may be a good thing. Candidates will get so used to smiling and being good that it will be second nature with them after election. Loyalty to country, to state, to county and city is the true highway to success. Let's all pull together, our chamber of commerce is on the right track to build up Seattle to greater greatness. Think good thoughts, have hope, believe in yourself, know that you will succeed, work, live frugally, maintain honor, and neither the poor house nor the devil will ever get you. It is said that some men are great by nature, some have greatness thrust upon them, and some are unaccountably great. Eliminating avoirdupois, wherefore cometh the greatness of Charlie Chamberlain. He but illustrates,he is unaccountably great. Col. Alden J. Blethen, L. C. Gillman and Hon. James F. McElroy, the three great leaders of the Democratic party of this state are grieving greatly because the Republican state convention did not nominate Governor McBride on a "governor appointive-commission" platform. Twenty-five dogs shot to death because no one had paid their city license, is the record of Pound Master William Washington in Seattle one day last week. Who said this is a nation and a civilization wherein "divine love" actuates the great heart of --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN mankind? Twenty-five of "man's best friends" killed in a day! Some way it is hard to refrain from saying, "shame on such laws"; it might be better to be an unlicensed dog than a pound master! Who knows? Party loyalty is all right enough in its way, but after all have we not a better reason for voting the Republican ticket? Surely every Republican must confess that the Republican party as a party represents those business principles which bring the greatest good to the greatest number. Judge John E. Humphries has done what all friends, who so earnestly urged his abilities for governor knew he would do, tho' defeated in his personal ambition, yet he has emphatically declared that he will support the ticket from top to bottom. Loyalty of this brand is commended to all Republicans. Could not the Seattle Electric Company afford to have their book of tickets so printed that the stub end would tear off, leaving a whole ticket to present to the conductor? This would save sneering remarks from over-officious conductors, intimating that the passenger was trying to ride on a half-ticket, a remark imputing dishonesty. There are some men, it seems, who always "rub the hair the wrong way," causing uneasiness and growling, if not anger and bitings. Such men had best retire from politics, at least refrain from bulldozing, and instead of muzzling the party caucuses and conventions, should go into silence, go way back and sit down and be still, especially keep still. It would be hard to find a man who is not in favor of railroads, and who does not admit that they have contributed greatly to the rapid growth of civilized nations. The railroad managers are too thin skinned. Had they paid less attention to the kicker and agitator they would have saved lots of money. In other words, railroads should attend to their own business. By doing so they would fare better, and could charge about the same fares. In the announcement that, if elected, he would sign any railroad commission bill, appointive or elective that would be passed by the legislature, Candidate Meade has said the right thing, and has said enough. Of course he would endeavor to appoint capable and honest men if the law should vest in him power of appointment. He did not need to say that, his past record for integrity and uprightness is better than his bond. The Rev. Matthews recently preached an able sermon on the psychological law of suggestion, which was published in the Times. Acting within this great law the "suggestion" is made to the "Editor-in-Chief" of that paper that he become more receptive of the truth, and less riotously sensational, and then, why then, the public might in time give some credence to what is printed therein, provided less black-faced type is used. That, in itself, is a "suggestion" of weakness. The refusal of the county commissioners to attempt the erection of a public building jointly with the city of Seattle for the housing and transaction of public business for the two municipalities, was wise. To begin with, good lawyers say such a building could not be legally built, as the laws now JUNE 3, 1904. exist, and for a further reason, two firstclass buildings are needed, indeed they are an absolute necessity. Let's meet conditions, not in one breath boast of our present and future greatness, and in the next chill all that hot air by false economy harpings. Laws Must Be Enforced.—Rev. Dr. Matthews sounded the kay note of the true American doctrine in his Decoration day address, when he said that law must be respected and law shall be enforced. It is true, America is the wrong place for the Anarchist and the dynamiter. He might have said one thing more—a something that must be taught along with the other. It is this: Laws are so sacred that it is a disgrace to pass or attempt to pass any law for political effect, merely; for a claptrap "play at the galleries"—just to make votes for the party in power. Too much such cheap tom-fool legislation already disgraces our statute books. The test of all laws should be: The right, and only that prevail! Commissioner Blackman is going to enforce the eight-hour law now upon our statute books. Very well, since it is a law, enforce it, but without fuss or feathers. Treat it like any other ordinance if violated, involving no great amount of moral turpitude. Don't inflict upon us a tirade with banners and transparencies. No man ever carried a banner demanding that eight hours be made the measure of a day's labor that was not a lazy man, a shirker of toil and a poor employee at any price for any number of hours. There is something repulsive in a big, strapping, husky man carrying such a sign through the streets. No man, no set of men, can so exhibit personal clamorings without belittling himself, themselves, and the cause advocated. Society has, perhaps, the right to fix the number of hours that shall be regarded as a day's labor, but even society in so doing should consider the needs of the world, its productions and its usings and be governed accordingly. According to the law of "supply and demand," not forgetting the higher obligation of the greatest good to the greatest number. Decoration Day.—Not many flags were displayed in this city, on Monday last. However there seemed to be more heart in the G. A. R. memorial services than usual. The "Old Soldiers" God bless them), marched. Many of them tottered and could not keep step. For one, at least—Comrade Wilson—it was the last march. Just after placing flowers upon the graves of his brother heroes, he was observed to be weak and sick. At once he was assisted by loving hands to his home, and medical aid summoned, but the bugle call of the Master had been sounded and he was mustered in to the land of Eternal Peace. The services at the opera house were especially good and appropriate. Every assignment met with favor by the large audience. The address by Rev. Dr. Matthews was especially good, replete in brilliant climaxes and delivered in a masterly way, as can only be done by finished orators. Decoration day will never be abandoned. Loyal hearts will ever keep sacred this day to commemorate the great achievements of the greatest armies of the world,—the deeds of American soldiers. Kensington and Rogers-Peet Clothing NOTHING BETTER W. B. HUTCHINSON CO. 1401 Second Av. and Union St. Seven Days' Current Comment and Observation JUNE 3,1904 Senator Quay's Death. The most notable happening of the past week was the death of Senator Mathew Stanley Quay of Pennsylvania. He was a noted man because he was a member of the United States senate, but he was also notable for other reasons. For the past twenty years he has been the absolute political autocrat and dictator of the state of Pennsylvania and his wishes have been absolute. A number of efforts were made during his political career to dispute his political authority in Pennsylvania, but they all failed, and Quay died the absolute boss of the state. Whether he suggested his successor or not is a secret confined to his lieutenants, and they have not seen fit, as yet, to make public his wishes. Criminal charges were frequently preferred against him in order to break his political power, but he out-generaled his opponents and came out winner. A successor has not yet been appointed by the governor, but it is believed that Senator Quay's favorite son will be appointed by the governor to succeed his father. Senator Quay was buried Memorial day, he being a G. A. R. man and half of the state was present at the funeral ceremonies. * * * Morocco Brigands Operating. The United States government is again greatly exercised over the capture of Ion Perdicaris and Cornwell Varley, two American citizens, who are being held for ransom by an insurgent chief in Morocco, demanding $70,000 for the return of the men. It will be remembered that Miss Stone had a similar experience in a province of Turkey, for which the friends of Miss Stone and the United States government were compelled to pay an enormous sum, and the success of that high-handed scheme probably encourages the brigands of Morocco to attempt a similar feat. The $70,000, however, has been refused by our government, and Admiral Chadwick, commanding the South Pacific squadron, has been ordered to Morocco, and the French government has likewise taken bold steps toward ferreting out the criminals and in forcing the release of these men, even if the Morocco government has to be fired upon or an army sent to capture the brigands under the commandership of Razouili. * * * Japan Whipping Russia. Reports from the Orient seem to indicate that for the past week the results of the war have been rather favorable to the Japanese. In a severe fight in which many Russians fell, and likewise a large number of Japs, the Russians retreated from their stronghold—Fort Dalny—and the Japanese army marched therein without further opposition. Fort Dalny is almost the key to the capturing of Port Arthur, and while it has been predicted for a number of weeks that Port Arthur would sooner or later fall, it seems to be almost absolutely certain that it will now fall and become a Japanese stronghold. After the fall of Port Arthur, the utter destruction of the Russian fleet in those waters will be an almost foregone conclusion. Whether or not such a disaster to the Russians would cause them to sue for peace through the intervention of the powers is not known, but the czar is still opposed to the intervention of any of the foreign powers and insists that the war will go merrily on and that Japan will, sooner or later, rue the day that she forced Russia into open hostilities. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN "Tascott" Found Again. An unknown stranger died in Alaska some time ago, and a wandering miner being present at the time of his death was told by the dying man that he was Tascott, the longlooked-for Chicago murderer, charged with having killed Millionaire Snell some fifteen years ago. Tascott dropped out of sight as completely as if the earth had swallowed him, and periodically reports have been received at Chicago of his identity in various parts of the country, but the reports were never substantiated. Whether or not Tascott now sleeps in an Alaskan grave is very questionable. So much was said about the man that it is barely possible that the man who died in Alaska was simply crazed from cold and exposure, and Tascott's name came to him in his ravings, and he imagined that he was the long lost criminal, but if he was, and Tascott now sleeps in an icy grave in the North he, perhaps, was punished quite enough and the world is just as well off as if he had been tried, convicted, and sentenced to pay the penalty of his crime on the gallows. Platt Sues Mulatress. One of the most sensational cases that has come to light in Greater New York in recent years is that of John R. Platt, a man 86 years of age, who has sued Hannah Elias on the charge that, she had obtained in the neighborhood of $70,000 from him under duress. Hannah Elias is none other than the well-known mulatress and former wife of one Williams, who, it will be remembered, killed Andrew H. Green, the well-known New York banker, and when arraigned in court plead that Green had alienated his wife's affections. Williams was found to be insane, and was committed to the asylum. Notwithstanding Hannah Elias had not only fleeced old man Green, but a number of other prominent men of New York, and she is now immensely wealthy from such illgotten gains. Mr. Platt asks that the women be made to return his money as he had given it to her believing her to be a single woman, and because he loved her. In other words, had obtained it by blackmailing. Thinks the Negro Risin'. There is one man in Portland, Oregon, who is willing to admit that, the "brother in black" is making rapid progress in the ways of the Anglo-Saxon. W. H. Aurelius, cashier of the Pullman Company at the Union depot, while making up his cash last Tuesday was unexpectedly called upon by two Negroes, who with the assistance of two big guns, relieved him of $2,500 in the broad daylight. The men succeeded in getting away, and so cleverly covered up their identity that the police despair of detecting them unless purely by accident. The officers are of the opinion that the men were professional train robbers and were white men blacked, but Aurelius hoots at the idea and says, "they were the genuine stuff" and acted with as much brevity and despatch as the trained Anglo-Saxon robber. * * * Walter J. Ballard, of Schenectady, N.Y., under the head of "Seven Fat Years," gives a long list of industries which have made wonderful advancement in the past seven years. The paragraph on manufactures is here quoted: "Between 1896 and 1903 Uncle Sam increased his factories from 360,000 to 600,000 an increase of 240,000; his factory workers (in whole or partial works in 1896) from 3,500,000 to 7,000,000, an increase of 3,500,000; his yearly factory pay rolls from $2,000,000,000 to $5,000,000,000, an increase of $3,000,000,000; his factory output from $9,500,000,000 to $14,500,000,000, an increas of $5,000,000,000 yearly; his manufactures of iron and steel from $400,000,000 to $850,000,000, an increase of $450,000,000 yearly, his home consumption of raw cotton from 2,505,000 bales to 3,924,000 bales, an increase of 1,419,000 bales yearly." CAN THE POPULIST PARTY BE REJUVINATED (Continued from Page 1) only Demo-Pop that got through, but died after he had served one year of his second term. Charles E. Cline, who in 1897 was elected speaker of the house of representatives, is no longer in politics, but travels for a secret order. For a time it looked as though Mr. Cline would be one of the United States senators from this state, but his day is past, and, it is feared, will never return. Frank R. Baker, the Tacoma member, who perhaps was the most rabid Populist of them all, and who was twice elected to the legislature, is no longer a political factor, in fact he has been completely forgotten. The next most influential Populist among this list is L. E. Rader, who was also elected from Tacoma, and subsequently elected from Kitsap county, where he now resides. Mr. Rader no longer aspires to political honors and is no longer active in political affairs. He is at the head of a Socialist colony in Kitsap county, and, using his own words is "as happy as a clam in the springtime." William McArdle, the Seattle Populist, who was twice elected to the legislature, and who is one of the above group, has periodically bumped into politics, but has been so often beaten that he is no longer a factor even in First ward politics of Seattle. * * * The great majority of the Populists of 1894-6-8 have drifted for the most part into the Republican or Socialist parties, and yet quite a sprinkling have gone to the Democratic party, and among the latter number might be cited the Hon. George Turner of Spokane. If now the Populist can muster up some of their lost strength, and place men at the head of affairs, who will look out for the party instead of the dollars there are in it, it is barely possible that they can start afresh and form a new party that may become effective in the future. Another obstacle confronts the re-organized Populist party, William Jennings Bryan threatens to desert the Democratic party and join its ranks, which would mean its complete destruction. * * * Collecting subscriptions for the Bee, which has not made its public appearance for the past five years, is but another of D. W. Griffin's crooked ways to fleece the unsuspecting public under the pretext of helping the colored folk. During the last campaign scores of men paid Griffin two dollars for a year's subscription to the Bee and of course have never received a copy of the paper. That every dollar he got under such a pretext was obtaining moeny under false pretenses even the most commonplace citizen is well aware and one of his victims at least is threatening to have Griffin put in "Jack's house" or the return of his money. This has gone far enough and this man Griffin should have a quietus put on him. ie The Seattle Republican Established May, 1894.

Japan’s leading general may be a Ma, but he is by no means a grand-ma, judging from his activity. “Scandal May be Printed for Women,” but if so the men are not at all delicate about appropriating women’s rights. The grave is or should he the end of all disputes between man and man. Senator Stanley Quay has been claimed by the grave and with one accord, “peace to his ashes,” should be voiced. Yazoo City, Miss., was recently destroyed by fire. We always thought that that par- ticular spot of the South would sooner or later go to Hades, but it had never occurred to us that Hades would get tired waiting and come to it. The physician, who after diagnosing a man’s sickness, who has been a club devotee or politician, and pronounced it “water on the brain,” is either a fool or a knave, or else the sick man’s brains are peculiarly located. Now that Tacoma is offering special in- ducements for thieves and thugs to locate there the haunts which for the past decade have been inhabited only by bats and owls of the winged tribe will now be occupied by bats and owls of the human tribe. A month from now and the small boy and the patriot will be hand in hand celebrating the Nation’s Natal Day. Of course their friends will not exactly celebrate the next day, but there will be a band and a parade just the same. Dowieites have been boycotted by the Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis, THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN and yet Democrats are to be made a feature of the exposition. How inconsistent the di- rectors of that exposition are, and especially in this instance. “We must Save the Nation,” announces the periodical political prognosticator, to which we quite agree, but our way of saving the nation might differ just a bit from his, for we would save the nation by throttiing the stump speaker, the ward heeler, and the bembastical politician. “Chicago's robbers are unusually daring,” says a head line. Not half so daring as they are skillful. In other words, they have reduced the robber profession to a science, and hence their seemingly desperate chances and hair-breadih escapes are all well plan- ned and cleverly executed. Negro clergymen in the Methodist Epis- copal church are no longer inelligible to the bishopric. ‘Lhe restriction was removed by the late general conference at Los Angeles. Lime wul always right all wrongs.

In fact the citizens of the latter country should rejoice and be glad that the class of emigrants that have been coming to this country for the past few years should be turned in some other direc- tion. We, however, sympathize with our Canadian cousins. How very very solicitous the Democrats and their organs of this state are lest the Republican bosses shove nominations down the Republican voter’s throats that are ob- jectionable to them. Do you think there lives a Republican so densely ignorant of his country’s welfare that he would appeal to Democrats for advice? Democrats do not think for themselves, much less for Repub- licans, for the simple reason that, they have nothing to think with. LEGAL SIDE LIGHTS Court Reverses Itself. One of the supreme court judges of this state tells a rather laughable incident which came under his observation not long since. A young attorney was making application for admission to the bar, but before he began his written examination one of the judges recognized in him the same young man, who a few months prior, had made application and failed in his examination. ‘‘Are you the same young man who applied for admission a few weeks ago and failed?” “I am sir.” “Well, why did you come back again so soon? How do you expect to pass now, when you failed but a few weeks ago?” “Be- cause,” came a quick retort, “I thought the court would do as it always does, reverse itself every other month!” Whether or not the court reversed itself in this instance is a question, but the young man passed his examination and was admitted to the bar. Bolster Got Bolted. Harold Preston is responsible for quite a laughable joke at the expense of N. W. Rolster, the well-known court stenographer of this city. Mr, Bolster, it seems, was ad- mitted to practice before Judge ‘Henry Mc- Bride, now governor, up in Skagit county. JUNE 3, 1904. He was being examined by three attorneys appointed by the court, and in the course of the exanyination a Latin quotation was put to him for translation, which on being trans- lated read: “Ignorance of the law is no ex- cuse for crime.” The translation was cor- rect in every respect, and showed that Mr. Bolster was well up is what it termed “tech- nical law,” but one of the examiners saw an opportunity to have a little fun at Bolster’s expense and rather curtly enquired, “Well, Mr. Bolster, what excuse have you to offer?” The court and the spectators enjoyed the reparatee of the examiner, but Bolster could not or would not acknowledge the smile. Motion Was Not Seconded. While Governor McBride was judge in Skagit county, a young attorney, late of some Eastern state, and by no means up in the practice of the courts of this state, ap- pealed to the judge while in his chambers, for some assistance in making a default case. He told the judge he had published his summons the required length of time, the newspaper had made its proper return and now he wanted to know what he should do in order to get the case before the court. “Well,” said the judge, “as soon as I go on the bench you get up and state these facts and then move for a default and the same, perhaps, will be granted.” The court was finally convened and the young attorney watching his opportunity rose before the court and stated his case as above and said, “I move you that a default be taken.” The court was a bit tardy in making a reply and the other attorneys seeing the awkwardness with which the young fellow went about the affair sat watching him in amused silence. No one replying to his motion he quickly called the judge’s attention to the fact that inasmuch as no one had seconded his mo- tion he guessed he would have to withdraw it whereupon a roar of laughter was indulged in by the spectators. Persons on Witness Stand. Court habitues in the coruse of time hear a great many funny things from persons on the witness stand, and this especially true of persons who listen to policemen tell of their arrests. Officers Hubbard and Free- man, who perhaps testify before the police court more than any of the other officers, got mixed up the other day in testifying and when the case was over the court, the jurors and the spectators were of the opinion that, if any two men deserved punishment for pergury those two officers surely did. The officers arrested a man upon whom they tried to fasten the charge of attempted bur- glary. The accused was a colored man and of the entire force Hubbard and Freeman seem to take more delight in abusing the fallen of this race than any other. This be- ing known to the man’s attorney, he asked that the witness be ruled, and of course Freeman did not know what Hubbard had testified to, nor did Hubbard know what Davy Crockett, upon whose house the at- tempted burglary was made, had told in court, and, therefore, the testimony of the two officers did not jibe a little bit. Hub- bard admitted having abused the man ane called him a number of vile names, but Free- man denied every word of it, and said that Hubbard did not do so, nor would Hubbard testify to it. The attorney tried to make him not be quite so positive in his state- ments, but he got real mad about it and be- came more positive than ever. When he was told by the court what Hubbard and Crockett had testified to he hung his head and said, “perhaps he was mistaken!” The jurymen did not more than rise from their (Continued on page 6) ```markdown ``` New Address We We Will Show How to Cook How to Cook With Gas Also How To Light With Gas Seattle Lighting Co.

Comes now the Vancouver Column with: "Some additional effort should made by the state and county authorities put a check to the epidemic of crime which has prevailed in Vancouver during the few weeks. For some reason burglars highway robbers seem to ply their vocation with but small chance of interruption capture." Do not be alarmed; the reiterror will soon be over.

One paper at least, printed in Ea Washington, has been able to talk something else besides the Tacoma coition, for in the last issue of the Daven Tribune the following very interesting ticle was found: "Lincoln county is to a number of fine new school houses summer. Davenport will have to figure a $20,000 structure for another year." dently the Tribune though Democratic, not expect the country to go to the "dition bow wows" because Roosevelt was elected President, Meade governor and King county man United States senate One paper at least, printed in Eastern Washington, has been able to talk about something else besides the Tacoma convention, for in the last issue of the Davenport Tribune the following very interesting article was found: "Lincoln county is to have a number of fine new school houses this summer.

Evidently the Tribune though Democratic, does not expect the country to go to the "demnition bow wows" because Roosevelt will be elected President, Meade governor and a King county man United States senator. * * * Big Popular Vote Next Fall. The New Herald of Tacoma thinks will be 15,000,000 votes cast at the congressional election." Guess you are but if either Hearst or Parker is nominee would be perfectly safe in predict that 10,000,000 of that number would be for Theolore Roosevelt.

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Occasionall Crosses Dead-Line. We surmise that the Colfax Gazz speaks from experience when it says: wild cougar was recently killed within city limits of Spokane, and now come story from Seattle that a wild bear has be trapped in the suburbs of that metropolis In Washington the animals of the forest still love the wild and romantic, but some people, stray over the "dead-line" casionally.

Lest the people of Snohomish county dulge in a Fourth of July celebration, Snohomish Tribune publishes the follow warning: "Statistics show that the celebration of our national holiday has caused 1,100 deaths and 5,000 injuries in the ten years besides loss of property among to $6,000,000." All of the above may true and correct, but even that will dampen the ardor of the celebrators.

All of the above may be true and correct, but even that will not dampen the ardor of the celebrators. * * * Official Timbeer Scarce. The Castle Rock Leader hits the nail the head when it says: "Washington D. ocrats seem to be at a terrible loss for off timber. They propose to nominate Geo Turner for governor, the same Turner whom they have instructed for vice-prident." It does seem that they could at l find a man for the vice-presidential nom tion and one for the gubernatorial nom tion without imposing the two nominate on one man.

The Weekly Blade of Bellingham said "No better nor safer nomination could be made on the Democratic state ticket for superior bench than Hon. Jeremiah Neter the present incumbent of the superior bench of this county." And, we might add, no better nor safer nomination could have been made by the Republicans than that of Jud Mark A. Fullerton or Judge Frank Rudkin. Both being most excellent no nees, they will be elected, though Jud Neterer be nominated for both of the place on the Democratic state ticket.

Mr. Sherpy for the present will remain in Kent, but contemplates moving to California within the near future. The Journal since its first inception has had some remarkable editors. Its first editor was Frank S. Musseter, who, notwithstanding the fact that he relieved candidate Levi Ankeny of $10,000 cold cash and immediately left for the East, was a very brilliant writer, and was so acknowledged by the entire state press. He was succeeded on the Journal by Judge J. E. Risedorph, who unquestionably was one of the most terse and pointed paragraphers in the state. Following Judge Risedorp on the Journal was Hon. John W. Pratt, who for many years was editor of the Post-Intelligencer, and under his management the Journal was the brightest of the bright. Then came Mr. Sherpy, who gave that village the best weekly newspaper of the state one week with another. Mr. Moore follows Mr. Sherpy and The Republican does not hesitate predicting that the Journal has yet to see its brightest and best days. JUNE 3, 1904 Abbreviating Spelling All Rot.

Presumably "ought" becomes "ot" and "wrought" is changed to "rot," which latter word would come pretty near defining this whole abbreviated fad.—Cowlitz Advocate. "All signs point to a healthy growth in Shelton during the summer in spit of the uncertain condition of the logging industry. With the camps closed down labor will be plentiful, material is reasonable in price and conditions good for building homes.

Ridpa well-known Seattleite one day tha a rather awkward looking specin genus homo shuffled by, "and he wonderful man in a way. But "Yes, that's Col. W. M. Ridpath," said a well-known Seattleite one day this week as a rather awkward looking specimen of the genus homo shuffled by, "and he is a most wonderful man in a way. But a few days ago a most sensational case was filed in the Spokane courts against him, in which the attorney came dangerously near charging the colonel with actual crime, and if the attorney substantiates his allegations it may yet result in that. It remains to be seen whether the charges can be substantiated or not, but he has faced sensational law suits before, some of which left his escutcheon just a bit shaded. There is one thing, however, I am told, the old fellow, though wealthy, has a holy horror of paying his honest debts and always finds some excuse to dodge their payment. He is an odd genius and that accounts for him not getting but one delegate in the Spokane county convention in support of his gubernatorial ambitions, after he had spent $15,000 in the primary election. During Colonel Ridpath's efforts to capture the Spokane delegation he, so goes a story, sent out his chief spender, Sam Wells, to feel the public pulse as to his candidacy. Well, Same visited a number of the leading Spokane Republican politicians and put a question like this to them: "You know, Brown, Col. Ridpath is a candidate for governor; what do you think of it?" At once the man addressed would reply: "Oh, hell." During the whole day Wells pursued this method of interrogating politicians and business men, and at night met Ridpath to make report. "Well, what did 'A.' say," asked Ridpath. "Oh, not much." "But what he say?" "He said 'oh, hell.'" "What did Mr. B. say?" "Not much of anything, but 'oh, hell.'" And so on to the end of the long list of names and the only encouragement Ridpath's candidacy received was "oh, hell." After the primary election some one asked Ridpath so goes the story, what he thought of his gubernatorial chances and he thoughtlessly blurted out, "oh, hell." Whereupon Wells broke in: "That's what everybody else said and since you agree with them it must be correct." Send your LEGAL NOTICES for publication to the Seattle Republican and save money.

TELLS OF FATHER’S ILLNESS. H. R Cayton, Esa., Seattle, Wash. My Dear Friend:— After an illness, extending from the 4th of March to the night of May 3d, father died. His illness was the form of dropsy designated as ascites. He had suffered therefrom for a long number of years in a modified form, and only about the ist of February were there any serious indications. At that time, he called my attention to the fact that he was gaining con- siderably in flesh, as evidenced by in- creased weight, and a fullness in his stomach, and it was not until a phy- sician was called, and an examination made, that it was evident that his illness was ascites. Everything that was possible, was done for him, but he gradually grew weaker and weaker, and became larg- er and larger, until he must have had forty younds of water in his system at the time of death. The physicians refused to tap him, on account of his age and weakness, and on account of his inability to take nourishments he gradually grew weaker until the end. He hore his sufferings with Christian fortitude, and he was conscious until very near the time of his death. He commenced to die on Thursday night, April 28th, and from that time until the end he hovered between life and death. He had an earnest desire to live, and I am of the opinion that his unwillingness to give up things of this life, was the cause of his long struggle with death. Just prior to his sinking spell of April 28th, the Holy Communion was administered to him, at his special request, by Dr. W. M. Kincaid, and his last days were those of spiritual happiness, and he was pre- pared for the hereafter. ? The !

Though his death had heen anticipated by us for sime time, yet, the blow was severe, and we can, even now, hardly realize that he has departed. We had his remains cremated and, as soon as I can make it convenient, I shall carry his ashes to Cincinnati, where they will be interred.

A special musical program has been ar- ranged for the evening. The public is invited. There was a Shakespearean and mu- sical recital given under the auspices of the Silverleaf Musical club at the Mt. Zion Baptist church Friday, June 3rd. A party lead by Mrs. Mann last Monday evening took Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Clark completely by surprise in every particular. Many in the party did not know where they were going and were as much surprised as the host and hostess. About fifty guests were present. The Byergreen Literary society o! the Mt. Zion Baptist church held a very interesting meeting Thursday, the 26th of May. The program was a splendid one and the audience was the largest one for some time. Each number was heartily applauded. Miss Daisy O’Brien and Mrs. Woodson sang solos. Mr. S. S. Glass read a very interesting paper. Miss Myrtle War- mack, Mrs. George Allen and Mr. John Fort all recited. SUNNYSIDE SCRIBBLES.

The Yakima Republic some time ago in speaking about a black man be- ing burnt at the stake for rape, said: “If the same crime had been commit- ted in Yakima the people would serve the brute the same as they served him down in Georgia.” Now there are two rapists in the county jail, but they are both white men, who com mitted their crimes on white girls un- der fourteen years of age. Why don’t the Republic man and the citizens now act? Is the crime less henious because the criminal is white instead of black? JOHN L. BEDILL.
