APR 29 1952 REPUBLICAN SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1904 F THE PASSING THRONG CURBSTONE SKETCHES OF THE PASSING THRONG bism, but shear it of all these isms and cranks and the cold, hard facts confront you—the government ownership of public conveniences would mean a saving of from 50 to 75 per cent of the present cost for such things to the people. If the water receipts of Seattle are honestly applied to either reducing the city indebtedness or making necessary public improvements the citizens have no desire to have their water rentals reduced from their present status. The householder who has to pay as much as $1.40 per month to supply his house and lawn with pure SEATTLE'S CHEAP WATER SUPPLY. Last Monday was Labor Day, and most people in Seattle are well aware of that fact from the outpouring of the citizens herein, which was greater than for any other occasion save the circus that has come to Seattle for a good many days. Organized labor was out apparently in full force and effect and there were more enthusiastic LABOR PARADE TAKES THE CAKE. water and plenty of it does not complain at that price, providing all of that amount that is not consumed in maintaining the water plant be applied to reducing the municipal debt or making greater municipal improvements. men, women and children in that line of march than were ever before seen on the streets of any city in the Northwest. As the thoughtful observer stood watching the various unions pass with their flags and floats fluttering to the breeze and noted the extreme earnestness on each one's face, it was plain to be seen that the labor trust proposed to either rule or ruin this great country of ours, and to the complete detriment of the capital trusts, at no very distant date, and the two who have been waging a relentless war on each other for years will destroy the country unless a peacemaker comes to the country's relief. Anent the effort of Councilman Daulton to reduce the water rentals throughout the city, owing to the fact that the water plant is a source of revenue to the taxpayers instead of a financial burden, as it was prior to Seattle owning its water system and getting possession of Cedar river as a water supply, reminds the citizen of eight years' residence in Seattle how bitterly the proposition was fought by leading citizens, who frequently tell of their great love for this city's welfare. Had not Seattle taken the Cedar river water supply when she did some corporation would have gobbled it up and would now be selling the city water at an extortionate rate. The labor vote is strong enough to elect every public official in this country from President to constable, and then make and enforce such laws as will be in the complete interest of the laboring man if it wills it, but they do not do so, and when a labor union man is elected to office he seems to become an easier prev for the corporation ORGANIZED LABOR IN POLITICS. If Seattle by owning her own water plant has made a most profitable investment and prevented some greedy corporation from getting a corner on her water supply and then selling it to the people at a most exorbinant rate, why would it not prove equally profitable for the city to make efforts to supply her citizens with cheap light from the same source as comes the water? Sufficient electricity could be furnished from the city's lighting plant at the Cedar river head waters to light every residence in Seattle, and that, too from the first night the lights were turned on, at a 50 per cent less cost than they are now paying for the same lights from a private concern, and after the city had gotten her first cost for the erection of the plant that amount could be cut in two. Why is it not the proper thing to do? lobbyist than the man elected from the middle classes. In other words his efforts to enact laws for the relief of those who sent him to the legislature are so feeble and ineffective as to render him ridiculous and a laughing stock in general among his associates. If it should happen that he is too radical to fall a victim to the tempting sacks of gold offered him by the serpentine agent of the corporations he becomes an unreasonable, radical revolutionist and wants the whole "government farce" brought to an abrupt end. From a cold-blooded standpoint, comparing the labor trust of today with the money trust, the former is a hundred times more dangerous in control of the government than the latter, for the latter has sense enough to not completely kill the hen that lays the golden egg, though it may squeeze her pretty hard when a few extra millions are wanted. Such premises, deductions and conclusions naturally leads one to wonder if the municipal ownership of all public necessities would not only be beneficial but profitable to the community where such are to be found. By the city owning its water plant it is able to supply the citizens with water at a cheaper rate and give them more of it than any corporation would think of doing. By owning its own lighting plant it can furnish her citizens with better lights at from half to three-quarters less cost than a corporation is or would think of doing, because it would not be speculating in lights, but turning whatever profits there would be in it back to the people. Why wouldn't the same rule work if applied to street cars, telephones, gas plants and the like? There is not a corporation in this city of the nature above enumerated, but that is piling up multiplied thousands of dollars for its stockholders. If this can be done for the stockholders, why could not the city own these things and take those great profits and return them back to the people in the shape of reducing the price of the article? If it were possible to ride all over the city for a penny, why not do it? If it were possible to get telephones for $1 per month, why not have them? The city is but the citizens who live therein. Is "organized labor" after all the panacea for the ills and complaints that both the "classes" and likewise the "masses" seem to be suffering from? is the question of the age. The classes have, figura- is gushing, but this has been checked for the time being at least by that part of the masses under the influence of organized labor, but that check has been counteracted by the classes forming great trusts, which readily conceded the classes their every demand in wages and short hours to work, but raised the price of all commodities to pay the increase. The great middle class—the farmer and the unskilled workman—it is plain to be seen bears all the burden of the warfare between the labor trust and the money trust, and it must be this class to come forward with some solution that will rectify some if not all of the public evils which this government seems to have fallen heir to. All of the above brings one face to face with the proposition of "Government ownership of all public utilities," and why not? All public utilities in this country are paying their stockholders enormous profits and the people, which, after all, is the government, are personally paying for these gigantic dividends. So long as the people will stand for an additional raise without breaking out into open rebellion, just so long will the corporate kings continue to send the prices of the commodities of this age and generation skyward, and these prices are making millions, not for the government, which would go for public improvements, but for the enrichment of a baker's dozen stock kings, who managed to corner the market and freeze out all small investors. A transcontinental railroad should be a great public highway for the benefit of the people, the same as a country public dirt road. Such talk smacks of Populism, single taxism and even Deb- In the mass Populist convention held in Seattle last Tuesday only presidential electors were named and the state ticket left open, which was a practical endorsement of the Republican ticket as those Populists that participated in the convention were outspoken in their denouncement of Judge Turner and do not hesitate to say, they will vote for Meade in preference to Turner. The electors named are W. F. Runner, Spokane county; L. E. Raider, Kitsap county; William Priest, Douglas county; George F. Cottril, Edward Clayson, Sr., King county. A vigorous campaign will be made in every nook and corner of the state and the Democratic party will be fought to a perfect standstill. 140m 140m VOL. XI. NO. 14 SEATTLE'S CHEAP WATER SUPPLY.

TELEPHONE MAJOR JE THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Southern Election Methods Engrafted on the Nation its foremost champions in these two States of South Carolina and Mississippi, where the Negro has been completely legislated, illegally, out of every vestige of political rights. He has been driven to the wall to perpetuate Democratic supremacy. Not only is he a negligible quantity in the government in these States, but the silent voting white population demonstrates that the great masses of whites have also become such. Hoisted upon a government by the cunning of State Constitutional strategy, the degenerate Democracy has grown into an oligarchy, and threatens now to similarly enslave the voters of the Northern and Western States. The political game of manipulating the Afro-American voting population to subdue the white population in the oligarchically ridden States of the South has been completely mastered. The next step of the Southern Bourbon machine is to apply to the Nation and to the manipulation of the politics of the republic, this "loaded dice" game of GOVERNED BY MINORITY. Republican and Democratic speakers so far in the campaign appear to be hedging on that plank in the Republican platform which calls for a reduction of Southern representation in Congress and the Electoral College "if"—! The Democrats and Republicans alike appear to be afraid of the issue as the devil is of Holy water. There need be no tenderness or timidity on the part of Republicans of the North in a proper presentation of the issues arising from the fraudulent suffrage conditions in the South. In fact, there is much to be gained in the pending campaign by a straightforward putting of the situation before the country. Some of the strong points, as we see them, may be brought forward with telling results. Take the vital matter of inequality of representation. Let us consider the two States of the South from whence hail Senator B. R. Tillman and Representative John Sharp Williams, two leading "lights" in the recent Democratic National Convention. The combined vote for all candidates for Congress in South Carolina, cast in 1902, was 32,-185. The combined Democratic vote was 29,343. The total white voting population of South Carolina is 127,396, the total voting population being 280,346. The combined vote cast for the two Congressional candidates in the 11th Ohio District, represented by Mr. Grösvenor, was 42,611 or 13,268 more votes than were polled for the entire South Carolina delegation in Congress! "White Supremacy!" Does the country forget the theft of the Governorship of Tennessee from H. Clay Evans by the State Democracy, this conspiracy being accomplished by counting fraudulent votes that were never cast in the black counties to overcome honest majorities returned from the white counties of the State? Does the Nation forget how the black belt of Alabama was employed to count out R. F. Kolb? "Democracy!" Does not Democracy mean a belief in the right of the people to rule? Has not the story of Goebelism in Kentucky been forgotten? Does not the free North awaken to the fact that the black belt methods of the South, as applied to the States of the South, are sought to be applied to the politics of the Nation? Is it not plainly to be seen by the voters of the North that this great misgoverned and misrepresented vote of the South is sought to be employed by the oligarchists of the South to override the voters of the North? The combined vote for Congressmen from the eight Congressional Districts in Mississippi, in 1902, was 18,058, or just 24,553 votes less than were polled in Mr. Grosvenor's district. Mr. John Sharp Williams, the Democratic leader, "broke into" Congress in 1902 without any opposition, on a vote of 1,433. The combined vote in Mr. Crumpacker's district, the tenth Indiana, was 46,158! Compare the District represented in Congress by the Republican speaker, Mr. Joseph G. Cannon, of the 18th Illinois District, with the vote of the Democracy in Mr. Williams' stronghold! Mr. Cannon received 22,941 votes, the Democratic candidate received 15,254 votes, and the Prohibition candidate 1,166 votes. It will be perceived that the Prohibition party is stronger in Mr. Cannon's district than the Democracy is in Mr. Williams' district! Mr. Cannon polled more votes in his candidacy, by 4,883, than were accredited to the entire Mississippi delegation. One member from Mississippi was elected to the 1902 Congress on 1,146 votes. It may be interesting to bear in mind that there are 145,815 white male persons of voting age in Mississippi, the total voting population being 344,462. To the winds with this prating about the Democratic party being the party of "White Supremacy!" Prior to the War it held representation in the General Government under an apportionment embracing three-fifths of the slave population. It is worse now. The present apportionment embraces the entire disfranchised Afro-American race! The present apportionment puts thirty votes in the hands of the oligarchist white man South to the one vote of the free man in Illinois! No wonder that such as Tillman and Vardaman shout themselves hoarse about the "race issue." They are making believe that they are chasing the Negro in the political moon—for he is certainly not a factor in the political South—while they are really chasing the liberties of whites and blacks North as well as South. There being 46,158 votes cast in the 10th Indiana District to the 1,443 ballots in the 8th Mississippi District, it appears that the premium put upon the Mississippi voter is about 30 to 1 as against the Indiana voter. The highest number of ballots received by any Democratic candidate for Congress in South Carolina being 5,140, it appears that the South Carolina Democrat stands at a premium of 9 to 1 against his Illinois fellow countryman. The Democracy no longer gives consideration to the question of robbing the Negro of his political rights. That is an accomplished fact, especially in Mississippi and South Carolina. The object is now to force upon the white voters of the North and West the domination of the General Government by the padded State Governments of the South, aided and abetted by the "Hun" vote of the North! Will the free voters of the North and West stand for the cowardly fraud?—New York Age. There appears, further, the fact that there is an issue arising from the Southern suffrage condition which affect not alone the Afro-American vote. It is strange, indeed, that the Democratic "race issue" finds the White House, such Negroes as Bishop Turner, Booker Washington and T. Thomas Fortune? Tom Watson, the Populist Presidential candidate, stands a good show of carrying some of the Southern States unless Alton B. Parker, Democratic Presidential candidate, satisfactorily answers the following questions propounded to him by Watson at a great Georgia rally held in Atlanta a few days ago. Watson says: "Fourth—Do you approve the mixed schools of New York, inaugurated under Grover Cleveland—in which social equality is practically made a matter of compulsion? "Fifth—If such schools, wherein black children and white children are educated together, a good thing for your native state of New York, would they be a good thing for Georgia and South Carolina? If not, wh ynot? "In this campaign the Democratic national leaders have prostituted the name of Democracy and are demanding that they shall be blindly followed, in spite of the fct that they have renounced every principle of Democracy. Will the real Democrats follow the name rather than principles? Grain receipts at Washington inspection points for rthe season closed September 1 are a reminder of last year's poor wheat harvest. There were inspected at Tacoma during the twelve months 5,906 cars or 5,-816,410 bushels of wheat, at Seattle 3,973,060 bushels and at Spokane for eleven months 1,413,475 bushels, an aggregate of 11,202,945 bushels. For the previous crop year the receipts at the three inspection points were 15,963,800 bushels, a deficit of 4,750,000 bushels. This was partly compensated for by the increased output of barley, as shown by the returns, however, the total receipts at Tacoma for 1904 reaching 1,218,-780 bushels, against 632,700 bushels last year; Seattle, 603,080 bushels, against 549,420, and Spokane practically unchanged at 175,680 bushels. Tacoma handled 565,500 bushels of oats inspected in by rail for the crop year; Seattle, 1,077,000, and Spokane 559,500 bushels, compared with 679,680, 832,320 and 407,520 bushels respectively the previous season. "In the South we are told we must submit to the surrender to Wall street because of 'the nigger.' "The South should demand to know the facts about Judge Parker. How does he stand upon the alleged Negro question? Is his position at all different from that of Roosevelt? If so, in what respect? "The South should demand explicit reply to the following questions before it votes for him upon the assumption that he differs from Roosevelt on the Negro question: "First—Would you refuse to eat at the same table with Booker Washington? "Second—Would you refuse to appoint Negroes to office in the South? "Third—If elected, will you refuse to receive on terms of equality, at WATSON ASKS PARKER QUESTIONS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1904 FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1904 POLITICAL POT=PIE POLITICAL POT=PIE The Republican county campaign committee will begin operations about the 15th of September, it having already secured committee rooms in the Starr-Boyd building. "I see no use of opening the campaign before the latter part of the month," said Chairman Knickerbocker. "Of course the Times, or, as you would say, the Belzebub, Lord of the Dung, is doing a whole lot of charging and surcharging, but before the campaign is half over it will have completely worn itself out going up the hill and then going down again. Take it easy and it will work better." * * * King county will send twenty-four Republican members to the next legislature, who will work unitedly for a King county man for United States senator, who will be elected by the next legislature. The advocates of both Senator John L. Wilson and Jacob Furth for that honor are just as anxious to see a full Republican delegation elected as are the advocates of Sam Piles. If King county succeeds in getting any one of the three elected it will be because she leaves home right—having a full Republican delegation. \* \* \* "What is a Knocker? A 'Knocker' is one who condemns bad things that you approve," says the Times. For an example, one who condemns the electors for voting for William McKinley, because, if elected, he will make slaves of American citizens, or one who will publish a lie more quickly than the truth, providing the former would sell a few more papers than the latter. A professional "Knocker" has a hundred and one ways to strike, and yet be able to get away before seen or discovered. * * * "Under the ruling from Washington, D. C., the postmasters of this state can now answer Palmer's letter in safety," bemoans the Belzebub, Lord of the Dung. The Republican ones would have answered it had the ruling been just the opposite to what it was. The postmaster holding office at present and who does not favorably reply to Chairman Palmer's letter is no Republican, and unless we are sadly mistaken he will find himself a marked man in Republican camp fires when he comes up for reappointment. *** "We believe we can elect Judge Turner, and we believe we have a fighting chance to elect Steve Judson and George Mudgett, but the Democratic organization is willing to lose everything to elect Turner." Of course the party is willing to trade every other candidate's chances off for the head of the ticket, not because they love Turner so dearly, but for the appointments he will make in case he is elected. It can be safely said that there is more genuine selfishness to the square inch in the Democratic party than any other party ever organized in the United States. * * * When the Daily Belzebub, Lord of the Dung, made the statement a few days ago that Chairman Palmer intended to repri- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN mand Candidate Atkinson because he had opposed Palmer it showed what a notorious journalistic liar that sheet really is. There are perhaps two no warmer personal friends in the state than Chairman Palmer and Candidate Atkinson, and politicians who are cognizant of the close friendship between the two men, which is of many years duration, have freely admitted during the past week the authenticity of the statement: "Saw it in the Times? Damn lie." * * * When a disgruntled school teacher-politician gives it out that the Republicans of this state are going to vote in a body against one of the regular Republican nominees because he, the disgruntled school teacher-politician, wanted the job himself and failed to land, he, to the personal knowledge of the Piemaker, is talking through his hat, using common street parlance. And, worst of all, will they vote against a tried and true blue Republican, a Union Veteran, in the interest of a Southern Confederate offspring? Bosh! Nonsense! * * * Straws show the way the wind is blowing. One day last week the Bon Marche placed on sale at the front door of its great emporium a job lot of Roosevelt and Parker caps at a cut rate. Before the day was done every Roosevelt cap had been taken, but the Parker caps were still plentiful and the lad in charge said: "No one seems to want them. I will either have to make Parker men out of my customers or change the lettering on the Parker caps to spell Roosevelt." It was an uphill business to undertake either, and so Manager McDermott had the Parker caps carefully reboxed and we have a sneaking idea he has sent them to Gov. Vardeman of Mississippi with his compliments. * * * The Columbia Valley News, with Samuel Burdett editor and J. E. Shepperson business manager, has suspended publication and the Seattle Republican has agreed to supply the list of paid up subscriptions made out by the business manager. The paper ran three months, and Mr. Shepperson thinks might have run indefinite had the proper amount of work been done on it. Persons receiving the Seattle Republican who did not subscribe for it, but who did subscribe for the News, will understand the reason they are getting The Republican. Just a baker's dozen newspapers have been started in this section by colored men since The Seattle Republican begun eleven years ago, and all have returned from whence they came but The Seattle Republican moves grandly on, having never lost an issue. * * * Deomercatic papers are cartooning Uncle Sam as being crushed to the ground by President Roosevelt piling unnecessary public debt on him. Has Roosevelt had a bond issue since he has been Chief Magistrate? The real bloated bondholders of the West today are the farmers. Did Democracy make them such? Well, hardly. Under Democracy they were paupers and tramps and it is not natural for them to vote themselves into that condition again by placing Parker and his cohorts in charge of this government. * * * To the man who thinks a high moral tone prevails in Republican methods in this state the clipping from the Seattle Republican, published elsewhere under the caption "Civilization and Horse Sense," is commended. Comment is almost unnecessary, further than to say it is a defense of Chairman Palmer's offense against not only common political decency but the statutes of the United States in soliciting campaign funds from federal officers. Democrats can well afford to lie under the imputation of lack of "horse sense" if that is the Republican definition of crime and to be in the minority if majorities must be secured by the Palmer method.—Olympia State Capital. * * * Oh, you "pound" of poisoned political pups! Is there anything in the category of political cussedness that you would not do had you sense enough to carry it out? What would the Democratic party of this country amount to if it did not burn and massacre the Negroes of the South like heathen Hottentots in the African jungles in order that you can always make cock-sure a "Solid South" for a workign basis? * * * NATIONAL REVENUES FROM LIQUOR. The United States received last year $131,000,000 of public revenues from the tax on spirits and $47,000,000 from the tax on beer, a total of $178,000,000. The Russian government estimates at $358,000,000 its revenue this year from the sale of liquor, which is a monopoly of the imperial government except in Siberia, where on July 1 it will become a monopoly, too. In Great Britain the revenue from excises, as the tax is called, averages $138,000,000 a year, not much less than the revenue of the United States government from the same source, and there is besides the customs revenues from rum, brandy and other intoxicants, amounting to $25,000,000. The French government derives in a year 300,000,000 francs from the tax on spirits, $25,000,000 from the tax on beer and $175,-000,000 from the taxes on wine, cider being included. This, says the New York Sun, is $100,000,000 a year from liquor payments, exclusive of the amounts collected as customs duties from wines entered into France for reshipment or for local consumption. Italy raises about 100,000,000 lire a year from excise taxes, the equivalent of about $20,000,000. Holland raises about 50,000,000 florins from this source, equivalent to $20,-000,000. The actual contribution of the liquor trade to the income of the state is even larger than these figures indicate, for there are local as well as national taxes. Thus in New York the state revenue from the liquor tax is distinct from the Federal government collections, and in Germany the larger part of the tax is paid to local authorities.—Liquor Dealer. In other words the government stands ready to permit the "dram dealers" to sap its very foundation if they will only pay a big enough price for the privilege.

Under such circumstances where does the auto come in for any praise? "White woman no good," thought a Seattle Indian who had received bad advice from a white woman. Big Injun may be quite a prophet in some things, but he has few believers as to his above declaration. "Judge Turner needs no defense," says the Colfax Commoner. No? Then he needs to be delivered from his damphool supporters. He needs something, and it is doubtless the latter instead of the former that he needs worse. Dollars to doughnuts the members of the labor unions labored harder last Monday than they have any day since the previous labor day, and their extra labors on that day proved a veritable harvest for the saloons and carousing resorts. There seems to be no doubt of the fact that the Chehalis Bee-Nugget is completely in the Bushes, but it has nothing the better of the Trade Register of Seattle, which is always in the Woods. Neither h,owever, seems to be guilty of bushwhacking. Because the national guard of California was compelled to "act soldier" instead of "play soldier," as did the national guard of Washington, the former has registered a mighty kick. If you don't want to get burnt don't play with the fire. "Saw it in the Times? Damn lie!" After a number of double doses of black vomit over Palmer breaking the Federal laws, the Belzebub in its last Sunday issue admitted all it had published about Palmer was a mistake in other words, a damn lie. --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Let Russians take consolation for at least small favors in their bout with Japan, as the Associated Press reports the Russian general as having performed a "masterly retreat." To even perform a "masterly retreat" is some glory especially for a Russian. We are of the opinion that the Rev. Oscar Smith committed suicide more on account of having been detected in wrongdoing by one so officially stupid as is Inspector Wayland than for the real crime he had committed or the expose that would follow. If General Kuropatkin has been "put to flight" as frequently as has been reported by the Associated Press he and his entire army must be some hundreds of miles out on the Pacific ocean by this time; and yet we never knew that even a Russian could walk the water. "Our Superior Court" is again grinding away and with grists enough already in sight to last until the January reorganization of the courts, to say nothing of the hundred and one damage suits now on cold storage to be filed against the Seattle Electric Company in the very near future. In the present campaign Democratic newspapers are telling their readers the same old story they have been telling them since "the mind of man runneth not to the contrary," how the Democrats will lick the Republicans at the polls. After the election they will repeat to us again, why the dog didn't catch the rabbit. Of course the Capital of Olympia can afford to take subscriptions for fifty cents a year because it knows those foolish enough to give up their "four-bit" pieces for it will be giving something for nothing, with the "something" on its side of the balance sheet. It's a clear case of "heads, I win; tails, you lose!" We learn from the Cascade Miner that the coal company at Roslyn has recognized the miners' union there and has signed a scale of wages for the ensuing year. Six months from this time, mark our words, not a wheel will be moving in those mines, and all on account of a dangerous strike that will have been precipitated by the union. Reference the other day in the course of conversation was made of the "Kid Committee," and after ransacking our political history hole we remembered that a Democratic stinkpot of that label did at one time hold Seattle in its meshes, but like all Democratic disreputable combinations it was soon ripe and soon rotten and driven into "inocuous desuetude" by Republicanism. "Bishop Potter is learning by experience that the path of a saloon man is not strewn with roses," says the Washington Liquor Dealer. You bet your boots it is not, but it is strewn with drunkards, outcasts and starving mothers and children. All of these were once "roses," but they do not look it since the saloon man has claimed them as his customers. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1904 The old Union soldier who does not vote in 1904 as he shot in 1864, though just forty years has elapsed, tacitly admits he shot wrong in 1864. The colored man who does not vote in 1904 as those "old soldiers" shot in 1864 tacitly admits he is not deserving of the citizenship those well-directed shots brought him. But neither the old Union soldier nor the colored citizen will admit either. They will vote right and vote to keep God Almighty and the Republican party in power.

To whom iyt may concern: In obedience to an act of the legislature, approved March 16, 1903, entitled as follows, An act to provide for voting on a constitutional amendment at the general election to be held in November, 1904, relative to amending the state constitution relative to power of legislature to employ chaplains for state penal and reformatory institutions, there is herewith published for the consideration of the voters of the state of Washington the following proposed amendment to the constitution f said state: Sec. 11, Article 1, of the constitution of the state of Washington shall be amended to read as follows: Sec. 11.

Bryan Has Made a Very Efficient Official then they grossly deceived the people then and if they did they are not to be trusted and should be classed as trimmers. There is not a word of truth in the statements and Republicans have no good or sufficient reasons for not voting for Prof. Bryan and re-electing him to the office he has so admirably filled for the past four years. A Seattle publication said last Saturday: "The school teachers of King county are fighting Prof. Bryan because the politicians nominated him against their wishes." Why did the politicians, granted the statement is correct, have to go to the school teachers to learn whom they should nominate for that or any other office? Had they done this then every other organized body in the state would have made a similar demand, and if their demands had not been granted they would have begun to Some of the school teachers in King County, led by one W. G. Hartranft, who has held the office of county superintendent as long as the constitution will permit him, and who desired to step into the office of state superintendent of public education, but was not successful, are making an organized effort to defeat the Republican nominee for the office of superintendent of public education, Prof. R. B. Bryan, because, forsooth, he, Bryan, was not the choice of the school teachers of the state. So far as Hartranft is concerned his efforts in this direction thoroughly demonstrates the political bigot and hypocrite that he has from time to time been charged with being. Because the Republicans did not give him a life tenure in office and elevate him from one big fat position to another he turns traitor to his party and stands [Name] town until fifteen years of age when he moved to Iowa. He graduated from New Hampton normal school of that state and subsequently taught in Iowa and Kansas, holding splendid positions in both states. He went to the front at the outbreak of the great Civil War and served through the war. He came to the state of Washington in 1884 and settled in Olympia. He at once took rank among the educators of the state and was the first state superintendent. He is a fine scholar and an able educational organizer. He was elected again in 1900 and during the time he has served has filled the office to the complete satisfaction to the voters in general. At the time of his nomination in 1900 he claimd Aberdeen, Chehalis county, his home, and for that reason the "southwest" is giving a most hearty support. this Union, for, if the South had been successful in setting up a dual republic, long ago England would have stepped in and thrashed the life out of both of them, and what is today the United States would have been a British colony. Is it possible that Republicans would turn down a man like R. B. Bryan, a Union Veteran, for the son of a Confederate soldier, when there is no point to gain by so doing? If the teachers are right in their present contention, why did they not make a similar complaint in 1900 by making an organized fight against his election? Why did they wait until some other ambitious school teacher-politician wanted the job for selfish reasons to wage a war of incompetency against a man whom they once indorsed and supported? If he is incompetent now he was incompetent then, and if they tolerated him house, but, in recent weeks, he has been collecting money equally as promiscuously for "a picnic for colored folk" as though the colored folk of Sattle are not able to pay for their own picnics if they want to have one. Take warning Brother Smith and curb your collecting desires or you are doomed for trouble. Will the Rev. Mr. Smith, who has collected hundreds of dollars in Seattle on the pretext that he was building a church of the A. M. E. Zion denomination in this city, rise up and state where all of that money has gone? If reports be true he has collected enough money already to have bought and paid for a lot and half paid for the building, but not one red cent on any property according to the public records has been paid. But a few days ago a prominent Republican gave twenty dollars for that Smith church, which he now believes was the same as having given it to Griffin to pay a ten year subscription for the Bee. The proper authorities should see to it that such imposition on the public be stopped at once and, if any one persist in doing so, have them arrested and tried for obtaining money under false pretenses. It comes to our ears that the Reverend Smith, "D. D., LL. D.," has had three serious court entanglements in the state of California for being too liberal with other folks' money and, if he continues at the same gait he has been going in this city, he will encounter as much legal trouble in the state of Washington as he did in the state of California. He has not only collected money promiscuously for the alleged erection of a church Vermont's increased Republican plurality over its last state election speaks well for the first gun of the campaign where issues and not shot guns are voted for. The Democrats hoped to reduce the Republican pluralities in Vermont, but they not only did not reduce them, but they materially decreased their own. The chances for Roosevelt sweeping every Northern state are brightening every day. It looks for once as though the country is going to see a "solid North" arrayed against a "solid South," which, under the circumstances, is right and proper. Kill off Democracy in the North at the ballot box and kill i toff in the South by reducing its representation in Congress and its day of PUBLIC CUSSEDNESS will be ended forever. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1904 ready to resort to any political chicanery within his power to defeat the party that has thrice honored him with nominations and twice elected him. When a candidate it is said he never held up his end and always had a kick coming about something, and it is also said he never fully paid up his assessments. Failing to "bull-rag" the Republicans of the state into placing him on the state ticket he is now supporting a two-by-four Southern Democrat, who has had no experience in the position for which he has been nominated, while his opponent has served well the school interest of the state and will continue to do so if re-elected, thus showing his appreciation for what the party has done for him. What benefit can Republicans derive from electing a Democrat to any office that can be filled a hundred times better by a Republican, just to please a few perpetual office seekers who are not willing to be turned down when the party thinks it to its best interest to do so for some one more deserving? Speaking about the Republican nominee for superintendent of public education in this state, he is a man of a long and useful public career. He faithfully served his country in the preservation of the Union. He prevented the ancestors of the present nominee of the Democratic party for the same office from destroying PROF. R. B. BRYAN. fight the ticket as is the Hartranft crowd. Those few teachers in this demanding clique were turned down by the convention because it did not seem meet and proper to cater to a few selfish, grasping office seekers, and if that demanding clique, under the leadership of a disgruntled office seeker, desires to bolt the Republican party it is their right, but the politicians will hardly follow in their wake. The Republican party is not a school teachers' party or any other organization's party, but a party of the people, and will do the right thing by them all in the course of human events, and the specific class that feels it must break away from the party, because it cannot run the party, cannot "move on" any too quickly for the good of the party. Prof. Bryan has served the state well, from an educational standpoint, and the teachers admit this by their silence in the past. He is a splendid citizen and a Union Veteran, while his opponent, who hails from Texas, is the offspring of some one who struck a body blow at the life of our Republic. This is a Republican state by some thirty thousand majority and it would be an everlasting disgrace if such a man as Prof. Gerard was elected over Prof. R. B. Bryan, and he will not be. Let's continue to be Republicans all over and not about in spits. Prof. Bryan was born in 1842 and attended the public schools in his native PUGET SOUND A. M. &. CONFERENCE ASSEMBLES. The Puget Sound A. M. E. thir teenth annual conference convened last Thursday morning in this city in the church of that denomination on Fourteenth avenue at 9 o’clock with Bishop A. Grant presiding. Those answering to the roll call were: Rey. G. A. Bailey, Presiding E.uer; Rey. S. J. Collins, Tacoma; Rey. J. F. Payne, Spokane; Rev. G. Toliver, Portland; Rev. W. J. Nich- ols, Everett; Rev. N. D. Hartsfield, Newcastle; Rev. J. W. Fuller, Ros- lyn; Rev. S. J. Freeman, Seattle. While the Puget Sound conference as to territory covered is one of the largest dioceses in the church, yet it is likewise the smallest as to actual membership, the above pas- tors making up the entire confer- ence membership. This work more plainly speaking is nothing short of a missionary field and the gen- eral conference should see to it that financial aid be more liberally extended it if it is to be built up. it is impossible for preachers ot any ability to stand it very long on this work because the various churches are not strong enough to pay them a living salary. Bishop Grant is noted for his cleverness of ¢ombining business with religion in his church work and it is hoped that he will look enough into the actual condition of the needs of this conference as to work for it to get a more liberal donation from the general conference in the shape of finances. There is not a charge in the conference, but that the pastor should receive a hundred or more doilars from the Church Extension Board or some other board that helps missionary points. Sending a pastor to a charge that will not more than half actually support his family with the injunction, “Rustle for the Lord and yourself,” is some times licensing the pastor to get money on the principle the old man commanded his son, who had just returned from school with his diploma in one hand and his phy- sician’s case in the other. After greeting him and learning that he had passed a successful examina- tion at school, the old man said to him: “Now, my son, the prelimi- nary work is all over. There are Dear Brother Smith unless the writer has been given the wrong tip you had better “pick up your duds and git” to pastures more green.

His time may be very limited, but it might not be a bad idea for his church, if he would take a day off and look more care- fully over his work here tor Seattle is the most important point in the cenference and, if.the proper foun- dation be laid here while the church is in its incipency so to speak, it will be the great distributing point for the A.
