Dem. Here's a sermon from the Star of Zion, the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, which has a half a million members among the Negroes of this country, that for patriotism has never been surpassed. Its conclusions on a "Flag for Negroes" in this country is characteristic of the black man in the United States who has ever stood ready and willing to die for his country's flag: The recent appeal of Mr. Arnett for a race flag has set the tongues of the gossips wagging. The Negro press comes in for a share and the discussion grows interesting apace. While several of our papers seem to look with favor upon the suggestion, to others it appears uncalled-for, far-fetched and ridiculous. Of course the American Negro should The National Republican campaign, which will be opened August 1st, will be generally managed by the following committee from the various states of the union. The chairman of the committee is George Cortelyou. have a flag. It is conceded that some sort of a banner lifted high on a pole—for instance, an old rag tied to a corn-stalk—serves to inspire the most recalcitrant and benighted citizen with an ardent and uncontrollable patriotism.

A pariah, an outcast, an incubus, he sees the white, the yellow, the red, the brown, the green, and the blue men's flags wave in martial splendor; and lo, his poor, envious heart, perchance, will burst, if into his feeble hand no friendly staff is placed. Wait, my brother. Don't be so mightily perturbed, a flag you shall have, and soon. No black border shall bar its hopeful beauty; no crimson streaks of coward's blood shall shame its loyal wave; no weeping-willow shall suffer its royal folds to trail in wretched dust, for a lovelier emblem it shall be, and truer. The American Negro has a flag; for it the blood of Attucks ran, for it the arm of Salem bared, for it the tongue of the immortal Douglas moved and for it brave Carney fought. The Negro has a flag; the briny sweat from a thousand corn and cotton fields proclaims, the bones that bleach upon the hills from Maine to Texas attest, and all the flood of loyal gore that washed the ides of Wagner, that sank beneath the sands of Pillow, and that dyed the rugged steeps of San Juan declares. Much speculation as to the probability of the Democrats carrying this state this year has been indulged in from time to time since the adjournment of the Republican state convention, but the idea is being scouted by both Republican and Democratic politicians, who have carefully gone over the field. That the reader may get an idea how the state voted two years ago the following figures are quoted from the records in the state auditor's office: The Negro has a flag, the facile pen of Jefferson so wrote. The Negro has a flag, let Sumner's voice cry out. The Negro has a flag, he who dares deny it must face the bleeding form of martyred Lincoln, strong in death. The Negro's flag is striped with white and red all over its broad and ample field. The Negro's flag is marked by a sky of truest blue on which the stars of virgin white lie bosomed, as if in safe repose. The Negro's flag, a staff of towering pine or sturdy oak shall bear and all the world will know our fealty. "We'll rally round 'Old Glory' "patriots we are, and free. We have won our place beneath our nation's flag and there we'll wait and fight, and win and die, until life's battle is o'er and every right to us has been assured. During presidential contests there are always more or less inquiry as to how the electoral vote in the various states is divided, and though there are a great many reference books with the figures in them, yet The Republican is inclined to think it would not be out of place to publish the figures in its columns that they may be cut out and put in your scrap book, and especially the one you carry around with you. Taking these figures as a basis, and this being presidential year, and the Republican presidential nominee being exceedingly popular in this and all Western states, it can be safely predicted that the Roosevelt ticket will carry the state by not less than 40,000, as the population of the state is materially larger than two years ago, and it has been Republicans for the most part that have come. The Republicans will elect their state ticket by not less than 30,000 and no one on the ticket will fall under 10,000 plurality. 1900 No. votes Colorado 4 .. 5 Bryan. McKinley. 1904.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 NATIONAL COMMITTEE. WASHINGTON'S 1902 VOTE szer QS 99A TOWN TOPICS DIDN'T GET THE LICENSE. The city council has refused to permit the Maison Barberis to transfer its saloon license from the James street side of the building, in which the restaurant is located, to the Second street side, and thereby hangs a tale. Jack made application for the change and before the license committee got time to act he actually made the change. Then came a hitch in the committee. Now that "resort," and this said advisedly, is frequented by a prominent "big" newspaper man of this city and, it is claimed, he did not visit the joint for the purpose of holding prayer meeting with the sisters. Being under the influence of Jack, he went to the license committee and demanded that the transfer be granted at once. This aroused hot blood on the part of the committee and they read the riot act to the newspaper magnate, and he in turn made a big bluff at them. Then it was that the committee made public their belief that the place was a resort whose moral atmosphere was not the kind that was best for a place above the dead line, and in their opinion the wise thing to do was to cancel the license that the resort already had. The newspaper habitue, who has seen enough of life to spend his hours either at home or prayer meeting, is boiling over with indignation, but he does not dare to make any great amount of racket lest the committee make an expose that would not look well in print, especially from his standpoint. HOW ABOUT THE BARBERIS. Houses of ill-fame of any kind are bad enough, but houses of assignation are always a hundred times worse than the open house of prostitution. Much speculation has from time to time been indulged in by the citizens to the effect that that saloon and cafe was not all that it should be from a moral standpoint and business men having offices in the building across the street from it, have frequently seen persons go in there of high social standing in the community that made them open their eyes, because they noticed such persons always took private boxes instead of the open dining room. If the committee having this matter in hand has any facts in its possession that would warrant it in branding the Barberis a place where men and women meet for immoral purposes, either knowingly or otherwise to the proprietor, then it should take steps at once to have it closed up. The very idea of a place in the heart of the city that wears the earmarks of a house of assignation is revolting in the extreme, and it should be wiped out of existence at once if not sooner. If it permits men of ripe old age to frequent it for evil purposes it will permit the young to do the same thing, and it's a most dangerous institution for the good of the community. It is not in the province of this paper to make any allegations concerning the resort, but a great many persons believe it a vile den and the sooner it is put out of business the better for the moral tone of the city. WHY HAVE THE CIRCUS? It begins to look as if the license committee is going to let the Ringling Bros.' circus THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN play in the city some time in August and will charge it a license of $750.00 per day for the privilege. Those grafters and blood suckers if permitted to come at all should be forced to pay $1,500 per day, and even then it would be a financial drain on the town. There is no need of it coming to town. It has "nothing new under the sun" to show and what you will see there this time you have seen ever since you could remember of having gone to a circus. Times are hard, business dull, money close and it does not show good sense in giving any circus the right to come to town and take away at least forty thousand dollars. That amount will be taken out of the regular business channels and the town will feel it from a financial standpoint for weeks after it has gone. The threat on the part of the circus folk to pitch tent out of the corporate limits is rot. They must parade in the streets to draw the crowd and the biggest and best circus in the land would go loser by simply passing the word around that it was going to show down in Georgetown or any other suburban village. Call the deal off for once, fellows, and let's do without a circus this year and the city will be the gainer thereby to a very great extent. SPLENDID NEW BLOCK COMING. Hon. Dexter Horton, whom an old pioneer of this city was overheard to say one day this week, "is the noblest old Roman of us all," is preparing to have another business block, which is to be the counterpart of the New York block, by the remodeling of the Seattle block, which until a few days ago was a hotel. "The block will be raised one story, the rooms all re-arranged and it will be in every respect as desirable as the New York," said Mr. Horton one day this week. The demand for offices in the New York block has not abated a single bit and a hundred offices could be disposed of if they could be arranged for at once. The new block will doubtless be ready for occupancy before the winter sets in and the storerooms that were made vacant by the hotel moving out will be occupied as soon as they can be put in order, as they have already been rented. The new block will have double elevators, and when completed it will give the building three distinct entrances, and it will unquestionably be the most desirable office block in the whole city, as it will be the center of the town. The city is building south just as fast as it is north and the wealth of the city for the most part is in the southern section, which will make this block as has already been said the great center of Seattle. GOOD THINGS TO HAVE. The ladies of one of the city churches gave an excursion to Point Defiance last week. It was one of those affairs where the dinner is taken in baskets and shoe boxes. Great were the preparations and much and mighty good was the stuff that was taken for the mid-day meal. The women on such occasions vie with each other in preparing the very best and delighted is the woman who observes others calling for grub she brought when it is all gone. Some particular thought generally predominates in a woman's mind and for a week before the excursion the thought Friday, July 29, 1904 that concerned one of the sisters of the church was an apple pie. She concluded to take an apple pie, not one of the kind where they cook up the apples into a thin mush and slop it between the layers of pastry, but a good, modern, never to be forgotten apple pie. She baked the pie, but alas! The best laid plans of mice and men and the apple pie was put in the top of the basket which was full of everything good to eat and started for the wharf. As she stepped off the street car, holding the basket handle firmly gripped in her right hand, the handle broke and as the basket fell the apple pie dropped out onto the brick pavement, bruised and lacerated to such an extent that its glory was gone forever. THE OLD SILVER DOLLAR. How dear to our heart is the old silver dollar, when some kind subscriber presents it to view—the Liberty head without necktie or collar, and all the things that seems to us new; the wide spreading eagle, the arrows below it, the stars and the words and the strange things they tell. The coin of our fathers; we're glad that we know it, for sometime or other 'twill come in quite well—the spreadeagle dollar, the star-spangled dollar, the old silver dollar we all love so well. Washington Standard. Kulies, the veteran Democrat, says he is out of politics. Democrats all are this year if they only knew it. A little 5-year-old Seattle girl that was called to account for not abandoning some of her undesirable playmates explained to her mother that it might be an evil spirit that causes her to disobey. It seems that our Mr. George Cotterell is to launch a new political party. Well, without encouraging or discouraging, we might say that the fathers of the Republican party possessed no more brains than the leader of this new movement. A politician who advocates purity and reform in government will not do any harm—it is rather inclined to accomplish some good. Two women friends were recently visiting over the telephone wires, when a third voice "piped in:" "What are you doing on my line?" The intruder happened to be an intimate friend of both and the three then engaged in conversation for ten minutes or more. Such an occurrence is generally supposed to be one of the impossibilities, but it is not, if the telephone girl will connect you. Mr. Steve Bailey, formerly of the Hotel Northern, is in the city visiting old scenes and friends. He will find the glad hand everywhere, for he is the prince of good fellows. By the way, he is one of the old line Democrats and spent time and money for the success of Democracy in Seattle and King county, but like Cotterell he will not support Parker.

POLITICAL POT=PIE The Democratic state convention will convene in Bellingham next Tuesday to nominate a state ticket. The Pie-maker is unable at this time to give its readers a full forecast of the ticket that will be nominated on that occasion, but he can do so to some extent. Hon. George Turner will be nominated for governor without opposition. There seems to be no doubt but that Van R. Pierson of King will be nominated for lieutenant governor. There will be other candidates for this nomination, but the indications at this writing point to Pierson as the winner. George Mudgett, the well known Spokane county treasurer, will be unanimously nominated for state treasurer. The balance of the ticket the Democrats themselves are seriously in doubt as to whether any one can be found that will accept the nominations. The above three places are eagerly sought by the above well known and popular Democrats for the reason they believe the Republican nominees for those offices are weak candidates and by putting up a strong campaign can be defeated. \* \* \* Senator Turner is not only personally popular, but it is claimed he is close to the people and is not tied up to railroad and corporation influence, and the Democrats claim as much can not be said of the Republican nominee, and for that reason the odds of election are greatly in favor of Turner. Then again, it is believed by the Democrats that Turner is favored by a large percentage of the Negro voters of this state, and there being quite a large Negro vote in the state, at present numbering nearly or more than four thousand, will prove another strong spoke in Turner's political wheel. * * * Owing to charges and rumors of charges against the Republican nominee for lieutenant governor, and, owing to the personal popularity of Van R. Pierson, and, finally, owing to the fact that he, like Turner, has been a life long Republican until a very few years ago, he, too, it is believed by the Democrats will have more than an ordinary show of winning at the polls next November. Pierson is a McBride Democrat, if such a thing be possible—in other words, being the only Democrat on the Capitol Commission, he has stood by McBride and, it is therefore believed by the Democrats that, Governor McBride will lend him whatever assistance he can consistently do without absolutely getting out and supporting him in the campaign. Hailing from King county will be another strong feather in his cap, as he is very popular even among Republicans at home, and it is believed by the Democrats that that alone will bring to him a thousand or more Republican votes. * * * In nominating George Mudgett for state treasurer the Democrats will be naming for that place one of the strongest men in their party. First, because he has proven himself to be one of the most efficient public servants that ever held an office in this state: THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN secondly, because at four different times the voters of Spokane have elected him to the office of county treasurer for no other reason than he gave better satisfaction in that office than any one else they had ever tried. He was elected by the Republicans, for all of the other offices were filled by Republicans, and he was always the only Democrat that went in; thirdly because he is personally popular throughout the state among all partisans, and lastly, but in no wise leastly, because his opponent, it is believed by the Democrats, is a very weak candidate, and that he per se is not a bona fide candidate, but C. J. Lord is the real candidate and if elected will run the office as he (Lord) likes. * * * Had the Republicans not been jobbed into holding an early state convention the Democrats would not have been able this year to have honestly maintained their organization. The state would have been considered by the Democrats as hopelessly Republican in every particular and therefore no one would have desired to have been put up for the express purpose of being made a football of. The Republicans made their nominations for state offices in haste and in some instances perhaps repenting it at their leisure. * * * The King county Democrats held their convention last Tuesday and after all day and night session nominated the following ticket: Sheriff—J. H. Williams. Prosecuting Attorney—Jay C. Allen. Clerk—E. B. Cox. Auditor—John W. Haight. Assessor—Henry W. Kelly. Treasurer—J. W. Gillespie. Superintendent of Schools—S. A. Perkins. Coroner—Dr. Arthur Crookall. Surveyor—W. T. Scurry. Wreckmaster—Hugh Tierney. County Commissioners—First district, Leander Miller; Second district, E. H. Evanson. Superior Court Judges—G. A. C. Rochester, R. W. McClelland, George Simmonds, John S. Jurey, H. E. Peck, James P. Gephart. Justices of the Peace, Seattle precinct—J. P. Clay Allen and James E. McGrew. Constable, Seattle precinct—Edward Corfee. Legislative. Fortieth Representative District—Robert Yale, Vashon; Arthur Ballard, Auburn; Manchester Walters, Black Diamond. Forty-first—Daniel Parks, Black River Junction; Otto Reinig, Snoqualmie. Forty-second—D. D. Plant, Ballard; Charles V. Beardslee, Bothell. Forty-third—William McArdle, Louis Gilbert. Forty-fourth—James T. Lawler, Nicolas Hanna. Forty-fifth—T. F. Keyes, Benjamin Madole. Forty-sixth—W. S. Pulver, —— Shorrett. Forty-seventh—Frank S. Southard, S. S. Langland. * * * The only nominees on the above ticket that the Democrats have the slightest hope of electing are Jack Williams, candidate for sheriff; Jay C. Allen, candidate for prosecuting attorney, and E. H. Evanson, candidate for county commissioner. The Times, the Democratic organ, has already mapped out this course, and it is believed that the party is wedded to that policy. That part of the state ticket that they hope of winning will be given every care possible and no time, means or talent will be wasted on the balance of the ticket, which is considered mere fillers. * * * Hon. John D. Atkinson predicts Republican victory in this state to the tune of forty thousand plurality. Mr. Atkinson is not an enthusiast and even his enemies can not charge him with ever going off half-cocked, using the common street vernacular, and therefore, when he makes a statement like that he makes it after he has carefully gone over the field, and with his ear to the ground, as it were, to hear any party discord in the various sections of the state. In other words, Atkinson is one of the most conservative men on the ticket and his prediction under ordinary circumstances can always be relied upon. "Did you know this telephone business has resulted in a telephone-ear?" said a clerk whose work called him constantly to the telephone, according to The Tribune, New York. "I don't mean that our hearing is injured, but that the left ear becomes more keen than the right. If you'll notice, all the telephones are left-handed. That is, the instruments are so placed that we hold the receiver with the left hand, so that we may have the right hand free to use in taking notes or messages. I presume. Of course, one naturally claps the receiver to his left ear, as it would be almost impossible to twist it around to his right ear. Consequently the left ear gradually becomes much sharper in catching sounds than the right ear. If you don't believe it, just try holding the receiver in your right hand some time and use your right ear. You'll find that conversation which was perfectly distinct to the left ear sounds confused and muffled to the right, and there is a distinct effort to understand. It is simply that the left ear is a trained telephone ear, while the right ear is not." Russia's move to cross the Dardanelles is properly objected to by England, and unless promptly objected to by England, and unless Russia rings her backing bells Japan will soon have an ally in pulverizing the power of the Russian bear. "Mene mene tekel uphasen," which is to say, "thou are weighed in a balance and found wanting," simply because Attorney Pettybone failed to send his legal notices to The Seattle Republican for publication. Just call up and we will do the rest by coming for them at once. Let us hear from you on this subject. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN. 214 Columbia St. The Seattle Republican H. R.

The Seattle Republican, Main 305. Office 214 Columbia. Mrs. Florence Maybrick is reported "in seclusion." Well, that's nothing new to her, for she has been there before. The money question may not be an issue in the present campaign, but it begins to look as if the question of money for the Democratic campaign is no longer an issue. "The Negro's Flagg' is or should be his country's flag and, if it is not, then the Negro is either a traitor or a rebel and does not deserve the protection any nation's flag. If money can buy a presidential election Parker and Davis will be elected, but it is hoped the American people have not as yet reached such a low state of public depravity. With coffee pronounced slow poison, and tea in equally as bad repute and milk certain death, it begins to look as if the Kentuckian's drink is the only safe one for man, mortal man. Dr. Stewart is inclined to take exceptions to receiving orders from his fellow physicians as to whether he has or has not a right to practice medicine. When doctors disagree who can decide? It may be true, as says the Olympia Capitol, that "all Democrats do not have cloven feet," but the Olympian will hardly deny that they have horns and are "wild, woolly and hard to curry below the knees." Russia should have known that Johnny Bull had the inclination to help Japan and was ready to hit a blow at the slightest pretext. Russia found out that it was loaded and did the right thing in ringing her backing bells. Prof. Goldwin Smith of Toronto, Canada, is uneasy lest the "breakdown of our Republic" be in sight. If he would only rouse the Smith family the danger might be averted. From the number of prominent Democrats that are daily leaving their party it begins to look as though the McBride disaffection is not after all going to cut very much figure on the general results election day. --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The contraband war question is to be all gone over in the near future and Czar Nichol had better keep his eye pealed or England and the United States will run him up against "heaps of trouble" before it is all over. If New Jersey does not go Democratic this year it will not be because that state does not boast of the worst and greatest number of blood suckers in the whole world. It's the home of the mosquito family of America. The Rosebud Indian reservation rush brought the usual shooting matches over disputed lands. Half the amount of energy on the part of the sooners would have purchased them a hundred times more valuable home. "Mick Murphy use to be the caper, but it don't go now." It's the Hon. William M. Murphy, one of Seattle's leading Republican councilmen. Good for Billy. He would have done it sooner, but his eyes have just been opened. "Mary Ann Fullerton," according to the Tacoma Forum, is a candidate for the supreme bench on the Republican ticket. That's woman suffrage with a vengeance, and that, too, without the politicians knowing anything about it. Mid-Summer Edition of the Georgetown-South Seattle News was out of sight. Editor Reed is to be congratulated for the many splendid features of the number. The citizens have a just right for feeling proud of the production. Missouri Folk have at least realized one of their long standing contentions, "Show me," and, as a result, the man who did show them is now the Democratic candidate for governor with the odds very much in his favor of being overwhelmingly elected. Japan continues to take Russian outposts and each day gets nearer the final capture of Port Arthur. Whether the capture of that fortification will mean the end of the war is a question. If it does not then a whole lot of useless energy has been expended. In pointing out the fact that 3,992,337 Negroes in the United States are engaged in gainful occupations, the Tacoma News sarcastically adds, "Does that include craps?" Well, yes, cotton, corn and 'tater craps, with "de usual watermilyon patch" thrown in for good measure. Eastern Washington is harvesting these days crops that will pay her thousands of dollars. In fact this is her busy day and, it would seem, under the circumstances, the political quackers would take a tumble and keep off the dump at least until the harvesting is quite over. A fellow got hot one day this week because the editor was unable to pay a bill, which he presented to him for payment. If an editor should get hot every time he presents a bill to some one and it is not paid he would soon be so hot that there would be great danger of him setting his paper on fire. --- Friday, July 29, 1904 How remarkably strange that the corporations should always be able to find some kind of a loop hole to get out of paying their just proportion of taxes? Some one either purposely left the hole for them or some one else is criminally guilty of assisting them to find it. Who is it? Don't all speak at once. In being elected to the mayoralty of Indianapolis Tom Taggert, the new chairman of the Democratic national campaign has had a wonderful amount of experience in the purchasing of votes, a thing he doubtless will be called upon to do to a very great extent in the coming presidential campaign if he expects Parker and Davis to have a ghost of a show of being elected. A million dollars for one man to dump into a campaign is a vast sum of money to foster corruption and encourage crime. If reports be true the vice presidential nominee on the Democratic ticket has agreed to give that amount. Now if the other trust kings do as well it begins to look as if the Democrats would have all the way from one to ten million dollars with which to conduct their campaign of corruption this year. When the Seattle Star makes use of such language as follows, one can readily see how easily "yellow journalism" can educate its readers up to committing all kinds of outrages in the name of protecting society from human monsters: "Three Negroes held up and robbed E. Whitney, a teamster in Tacoma Monday night. The depredation of Negroes has been steadily growing since the immigration of Ethiopians a few months ago, and the black people are beginning to become a problem." There are fewer Negroes in Tacoma, and for that matter, the state of Washington, at present than there were ten years ago. There were not to exceed twenty Negroes that came out in the emigration that it speaks of. Here's a true case of seeing the pigeon on the barn, but unable to see the barn.

The fifth annual session of the Colored Baptist Convention of Washington and the surrounding states at Roslyn finished its labors last Sunday and adjourned to meet in Everett next year. Rev. Beckman in his annual address declared he never felt more encouraged over the outlook of the work than at present. Every department of the work showed a marked gain over the report one year ago. Both Seattle and Everett showed much prosperity and Deacon Stolworth of Bellingham showed that he had not been asleep since locating at that point. The convention tok charge of the Bellingham field and after appropriating $25.00 appointed Rev. S. G. Wilson and Secretary Walker to proceed to Bellingham and pay that amount down on a lot, which Deacon Stolworth already had selected. The report of the secretary was in part, the general field work was much in need of help from the convention. Franklin, Ravensdale and a number of other places in the state need some assistance in order to hold organizations at such places. The convention elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Rev. J. B. Beckham, Spokane; vice-president, Rev. J. P. Brown, Roslyn; secretary, Rev. F. T. Walker, Seattle; treasurer, William Bagley, Roslyn. Women's Department. President, Mrs. R. A. Travis, Seattle; vice-president, Mrs. A. C. Hagans, Spokane; secretary, Mrs. William Bagley, Roslyn; treasurer, Sister Burnett, Roslyn. Sunday School Work. President, O. Stolworth, Bellingham; secretary, Miss Alma Clark, Seattle; treasurer, William Bagley. Mrs. A. C. Hagans will do the missionary work for the women's department and Rev. Wilson will act in the capacity of church missionary for the ensuing year. The members of the executive board are as follows: Rev. William Hammond, Seattle; Rev. S. A. Franklin, Newcastle; Deacon O. Stolworth, Bellingham; William Bagley, Roslyn; Mrs. A. C. Hagans, Spokane. The members of the convention were given an old-time picnic Monday in the woods by the good folk of Roslyn, who made it generally pleasant for the visiting delegates, and every one enjoyed themselves very much. The convention looks forward to a most pleasant meeting at Everett next year. Mr. C. I. Reams recently received a letter from Denver stating that his daughter, Mrs. A. P. Ball, has just been appointed to a very important position in the recorder's office. The remarkable thing about it is Mrs. Ball was one or but a half dozen that the new recorder retained in his office. She served four years under his predecessor and while an almost clean sweep was made among the clerks her services were considered almost indispensable and she was given the place for another four years. She was the first colored woman in Denver to be given such a place and though the odds were much against her when she began work she applied herself and laboring under the belief that, if a col- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN ored person holds anything they must do their work better than any one else, she did not leave a stone unturned in not only doing as well, but in excelling, and that is why she was retained in her position while scores of others were let out. There is no other way for the Negro of this country to compete with their white brethren only to excel them, and when the Negro wakes up to that fact the sooner will he be given more lucrative and desirable places and positions. Owing to the sweeping change in the office Mrs. Ball will not be able to visit her parent at all this year and, if she does, it will only be for a short time. Peoples' Savings Bank Second and Pike.
