Seattle Republican

SEATTLE REPUBLICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1904 VOL. XI. NO. 15 Southerners' "Roosevelt and Revolution" is Rebuked that had ever been given to the public. Every word and every sentence therein went straight to the point. No wonder the Democratic organ of this city, the Belzebub, expressed anxiety as to Parker's letter of acceptance. Such worry, however, is quite unnecessary, for it will unqualifiedly be a flat failure. Not because it will come from Parker, but because it will be trying to defend the Democratic party, which, on the whole, is made up of a rabble of murderers, anarchists and rebels, who for the past seventy years have labored to destroy the government of the United States for selfish motives. This is not a campaign exaggeration, but the history of our country will bear Vermont sends greeting to the Republican candidates for President and Vice President in the shape of a 33,000 plurality for the Republican state ticket. There may be some states in this union of states in which President Theodore Roosevelt is not held in the highest esteem, but it is not Vermont. The Green Mountain boys admire an independent, straightforward American, and of all of them President Roosevelt is the ideal of the ideal American citizen. "As we did at our state election so will we do at the presidential election in November," says Vermont. "Our blessings likewise on you, Mr. Roosevelt," hails from Maine, the home of that matchless statesman and Plumed witness to the allegation. Knight, James G. Bailne, whose memory all Americans love to honor, for last Monday the old Pine Tree state fairly outdid itself at its state election and, as in Vermont, gave a 33,000 plurality for the Republican state ticket, which is an increase of quite a few thousand votes over the election returns of four years ago. Republican ardor is not cooling off under Rooseveltism, but, on the other hand, it is warming up. Give us more of that brave, fearless and ideal American, Theodore Roosevelt. Arkansas sends its congratulations also, feeble though it be. Arkansas seems to be hopelessly Democratic, but more Republicans voted for the Republican state ticket at the recent state election there than have for many years prior, and as a result the Democratic majorities were greatly reduced. There are still hopes for even Arkansas becoming one of the civilized states of this union of states. John C. Calhoun, the South Carolinan, way back in the "forties" led his state into an open revolt against the United States government. War with the South was averted at that time because the Democratic party realized it was not strong enough then to strike the desired blow. In the great Kansas struggle the Democratic party, under its well-drilled leaders, was to the front with another attempt to disrupt the government, but again backed down from striking the blow of disruption on account of not being fully prepared. The long-expected time did ripen in 1861, and the signal gun of union disruption was fired, which brought the Democratic party, even in the North, to the happy realization of its long-cherished hope—the final disruption of the United States government. And so T. R. CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS. THEODORE ROOSEVELT. from time to time the Democrats have always been in secret league with some move or understanding which had for its object "Plotting for the overthrow of the government." Their revolutionary tactics today throughout the South are just as apparent as they were in 1856 until they rebelled in 1861, after the Immortal Lincoln had become president of the United States. Democracy was responsible for the Great Civil War. Democracy was responsible for the assassination of Abe Lincoln. Democracy was responsible for the assassination of President James A. Garfield. Democracy was responsible for the assassination of President William McKinley. Murphy, the Tammany King, since the returns from those states that have held their state elections have come in, publicly admits that Parker will be beaten clean out of his boots—worse by far than was the Immortal four and eight years ago. He concludes by predicting that Roosevelt will carry the state of New York by 30,000 plurality. Following the Maine election President Roosevelt's letter of acceptance was given out for publication. It is a voluminous document, but is unquestionably the ablest paper of its kind that was ever penned by a presidential candidate. Even Democratic papers are eidortially admitting that it was the ablest party presentation since the rebellion has been threatening the North with another. The band played "Dixie" throughout the banquet; and under its Southern charms the audience was worked up almost to a state of "Roosevelt and Revolution!" What an amount of sectional bitterness those men, who should be the Republic's safety valves, displayed. And for what? Because the Northern people love and admire Theodore Roosevelt, one of the great characters of the world. He does right in the sight of God and man, and that's not Southern religion, and for that he must be defeated. Will the sons of Lincoln, Grant, Logan, Sherman and Sheridan, and the sons of those who fought under them, stand for it? Will the true-blue Republicans surrender to these political outlaws now any more so than did their fathers at Shilo, at Richmond, at Appomattox and a hundred and one battlefields? We do not believe it. The South after forty years feels sufficiently recovered from the terrible drubbing it got in the great civil war to start afresh her harassing tactics against the North. Press dispatches but a few days ago told of an organized effort on the part of the Southern politicians to turn trade from Northern merchants by having the Southern dealers boycott the Northern dealers unless the jobbers come boldly out and fight the election of Theodore Roosevelt, for no other reason than because Theodore Roosevelt, as President of the United States, does not wilfully trample under his official feet that part of the Federal Constitution for which a hundred thousand of the bravest Americans that ever lived gave up their lives. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, which were written in the Constitution with their hearts' blood. "All men up," says Roosevelt. "All Niggers and Yankees down," say the Southern gentry, and they are willing to wreck the commercial prosperity of the country to enforce their damnable tactics. The cunning and craft of the Southerner, whether he be North, South, East or West, is ever to the front, and in pretty nearly every Northern state the Democratic party has been captured soul and body by the Southern element of the party, who have settled in those states since the late war. So completely are they in control of the party machinery that pretty nearly every Democratic nominee was either himself born in the South or is the direct offspring of a Southern family and is the same unconstructed rebel as were his parents. That there is a sectional significance in this Southern uprising goes without saying. Roosevelt is to be fought, not on account of any radical views he entertains on the monetary question of this country, not because any radical changes in the revenue laws are demanded, not But last week at a Democratic editorial banquet held in New York, at which some 500 leading editors of Democratic papers were present, it soon transpired that a great majority of the editors present were either directly from the South or of Southern origin, who had been quietly sent North to nourish Southern sentiment in Northern states. Any assembling of Democrats of national importance these days is always domineered by Southerners, and, strange to say, they are, for the most part, of the Tillman-Vardeman revolutionary stripe. That editorial banquet was presided over by Henry Watterson, who ever THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN licans in the North then the Northern man is very much different than the world believes him to be. because the tariff will be seriously disturbed, but solely on the grounds that Roosevelt is too much on the order of Old Abe Lincoln and stands for the rights of the black man the same as the white man. Because Roosevelt does not array himself and his office against the handful of Negroes in the United States in comparison to the Caucasian population and make slaves out of the former. Because Roosevelt does not believe it should take thirty votes in the North to offset one vote in the South. Because Roosevelt is of the opinion that if the South legally deprives the Negro of the ballot that section should only have representation in proportion to the votes it casts. That's what the North fought for from 1860 to 1864, and she certainly will vote in 1904 as she shot in 1864. That there is truth in the allegation to the effect that the Southern Democrats in even the Northern states are in absolute control of the party machines not only as to president and vice president, but as to the nominees on the various state and county tickets, the reader need not go beyond his own doors for verification, for right here in the state of Washington the Southern element of the Democratic party succeeded in capturing most of the state noimnations, and should that party succeed at the polls in November the news would be flashed over the South: "Southerners in Washington control the state and stand ready to co-operate with their brethren on a moment's warning." Is there truth in the charge? Let the records answer. Alfred Battle, nominee for supreme judge, was born in Texas. George Turner, candidate for governor, born in Missouri. Patrick Hough, candidate for secretary of state, born in Virginia. Lee R. Purdin, candidate for auditor, Southerner by birth. C. H. Neal, candidate for attorney general, born in the South. W. D. Gerard, candidate for superintendednt of public education, born in Texas. J. J. Anderson, Howard Hathaway and W. T. Beck, candidates for congress, all born in the South. In other words, every nominee on the ticket is a Southerner, with the exception of Steve Judson, George Mudgett and Van R. Pierson. What does that mean? Why should even the Democratic ticket in the far Northwest be completely domineered by Southern Democrats? Do the lifelong Republicans propose to surrender to those rebels by electing them to office over good Republicans? Later still an army of Southern political orators of the Tillman-Vardeman stripe have volunteered their services to campaign the North, and especially the so-called doubtful states, to make sure of Parker's election, who, they know, if elected, will prove a willing tool of the "Solid South" and thereby give them an opportunity to accomplish by strategy what they most signally failed to accomplish by force. With Parker as president the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments would be as completely annulled all over the North as they now are in Mississippi and South Carolina. Such murderers as Ben R. Tillman and Vardeman would be the powers behind the throne. Are the Union soldier and his progeny ready to surrender to the Southern rebels? If those Southern orators do not make votes for the Repub- enriched, and for whose flag and institutions his blood has flown like water on a hundred fields of carnage. The disgraceful episode at the recent "meet" of the "International Dental Congress" in St. Louis, in which Dr. C. A. Bentley, of our city, was the hero, while the whole nation was disgraced and scandalized, was one of those trying incidents in the life of a great nation and the evolution of a wonderful age that causes the pessimist to rejoice and the optimist to hang his head. Nevertheless of this we may be sure: "The Lord God Omnipotent liveth, and He is a just and a jealous God."—Chicago Conservator. A well-known Seattleite, who spent six years at the national capital in an official capacity, one day this week was discussing with a Southern friend the race troubles in the South and incidentally deploring the exceeding barbarity shown toward the blacks on the part of the whites. "In a town where I was reared," said the friend, "there was a peculiar case of illicit race miscegenation that came under my observation. One of the swell young men of the town, whose family boasted of being the leading one from an aristocratic standpoint in the whole county, was accused of cohabiting with a most handsome quadroon girl by a woman of the town. "Why, Mr. ——, don't you know that Liza is your father's child just the same as yourself, and would you be guilty of carnally known your half-sister?" "I do not give a —— if she is father's child, she is a nigger, and father's though she be, owing to the fact that she has nigger blood in her, she bears no relation to me, and all niggers look alike to me." It was strangely brutish and yet there are hundreds of similar cases to be found all over the South, sometimes white father actually cohabit with their half-breed daughters. Many centuries ago a philosopher and bystander at the cradle of the world's earlier civilization, being interrogated, answered in these words: "Civilization? There's no such thing; the thing you call that is but the deceptions of a younger and another brood of unreliables, who, when much is expected of them, will produce but little, and who, extolling the principles of decency and justice in one breath, will in the next declare their destruction and undoing." These words were uttered twenty centuries ago, but they might have been uttered yesterday, and of our own day and nation, so faithful a portraiture are they of the times we live in America. Is government of democracy, of the people, in which equal and exact justice to all is promised, but a chimera, a dream, as the advocates of kings will persist in declaring? Is it a LIE, the inspiring and hopeful declaration that ALL MEN were created equal? Is the boast that our statesmen, our historians and our poets love to cram down the throats of Europeans and Asiatics that our country is "the land of the free," after all but a boast, a jingling and glittering lie? “That reminds me,” said the former Washington official, “of a peculiar incident in the shape of race mixture and race prejudice that came under my observation while at the national capital. A rather swell Anglo-Saxon lady in one of the departments employed a very comely young mulatto girl to do some laundry work for her. The work went on from time to time until it ran up into dollars, and for some reason the Southern white lady did not seem inclined to pay her bill. The laundress, knowing that there was a well-established rule in the departments making it obligatory on the part of the clerks to pay their honest bills, took the matter up with the department. The head of the department called the clerk into his private office, where sat the colored laundress, and after confronting the clerk with the charge proceeded to administer a reprimand to her that made her hot Southern blood tingle. She was informed that she would have to pay that bill immediately or be dismissed. Then he turned to the laundress and asked her name. Strange to say it was the same as that of the white lady. ‘Are you related to this clerk?’ he asked of the laundress. Whereupon the “fair one” sarcastically interjected: ‘No, she is not; she is a nigger.’ The colored girl, not a bit nonplused at the unkind remark, answered: ‘None whatever, sir. We happen to have the same name because our father was the same man, though we are not in any sense related to each other.’ The fact leaked out that the swell young white girl was flying high in Washington City at the expense of her half-caste sister and did not even want to pay her enough to keep body and soul together.’ Did Washington ever live, and Franklin, Sumner, Gliddings, Lovejoy, Stevens, John Brown, Lincoln, and Douglass, the mighty black? And the war for the Union, those dark and bloody days of '61 and '65, is it all a myth concerning them? Where are the heroes of those trying times, the thousands and thousands of blacks and whites who gave up their lives for the institutions of a new and a BETTER AMERICA, that these ruffians disgraced the other day before the eyes of the representatives of many foreign nations? Did these patriotic men, whose graves and bones for forty years have enriched the soil of every State in the Southland, die a foolish and unnecessary death, and is it simply a harrowing shame, the whole pitiful story from beginning to end? Where do you find it? In America? The man who says so lies in his throat; there's no such thing! Let us have done with the whole wearisome, withering farce. Justice, fair play, an equal chance for the colored man in America; vanity of vanities, the farce of the century! The lousiest, dirtiest, most ignorant offal of the earth has a thousand chances to the Negro's one in the country his slavish toil has The pity and SHAME of it all. Liberty? What is it? Justice for the colored man? Friday, September 16, 1904. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN CURBSTONE SKETCHES OF THE PASSING THRONG Some years ago a mania on the part of police officers to shoot civilians down on the slightest pretext became so common in San Francisco as to grow alarming. They were officers of the law and it seemed that the civilian never had proof enough against one of them to bring them to justice. The thing became so frequent that the citizens appealed to drastic laws of their own make for relief, and then came a tit for tat battle. A policeman would kill a citizen today and a citizen would kill a policeman the next night. This went on until it was almost dangerous to be out at night. The last of such shooting affairs was when an officer apparently with hell in his heart started out to kill Samuel of Posen (stage name), the well-known actor, and he, getting wind of what was coming, side-stepped as the bluecoat started by and let him have a "forty-four" full face. It was all night with the copper. He gave himself up, and the trial, which was a long and exciting one, brought out so many startling revelations that the police force was completely reorganized and you hear of no more sensational shooting on the part of the police in San Francisco. Is that the only way the citizens of this city can put an end to the reckless taking of human life that has been charged up to Lane et al. within the past year or such a matter? when the train had to stop for ten minutes at Kent, just sixteen miles away, that I paced up and down the car like an old maid looking for a husband. It was not only as hot as hades the whole time I was in the East, but every day to me was as quiet as a Sunday holiday. One day in Seattle shows more real, active business life than in any other cities I visited in the East. I took a trip down the Mississippi river with an old friend as far as Memphis, Tenn., where I spent a couple of days looking over the city. Well, excuse me from even discussing either that Southern city or any of the others that I passed through. There is absolutely no life in them at all, and one hailing from Seattle has to stop and wonder what they do there to get enough support from to build a little country town, to say nothing of a big city. Of course persons who have never seen anything else but that stagnant inertia in business are quite accustomed to it and do not look for anything different, but the Western man, and especially the Seattle man, is as completely nonplused as if he had suddenly been taken up and let down in the middle of some great desert." Capt. Case, it will be remembered, was nominated on the Republican county ticket for county clerk and is now ready for the campaign, which is about on the eve of opening up. Tom Humes, the Seattle political pugilist, after holding the championship of this city for ten years, has been finally knocked out, and, like the prize-ring king when once knocked out, the jig is all up with him and he either soon dies of a broken heart, has to begin life all over at another place or become a public charge. Tom Humes, who had an uninterrupted run at office-holding in King county covering a period of fifteen years, during which time he was state representative, superior court judge and mayor of Seattle, and during which time he was candidate for supreme judge, governor, member of the House of Representatives, United States senator and a score or more different Federal appointments, is now a complete political wreck and is drifting on the snows of Alaska. In every political contest the name of Humes was always prominently discussed until he became a political nightmare and evidently was thoroughly convinced he could not make a living only by holding a public office; but that fatal "chance blow" finally hit him and down and out he went. Last March Tom Humes ceased to be a political factor and since that time he has tried to practice law, but made poor headway. After five months' struggle he becomes thoroughly disgusted with himself and, in his dotage, pulls up root and branch to pitch his tent in the frozen North to begin life all over, where he evidently hopes to get a new lease at office holding. This is said advisedly, for the man seems to have never had any other ambitions in life but to hold a public office. In Kansas he run his race at office holding and came to Seattle to start "life all over again," but he at once sought an office. He ran his race in Seattle and now he has gone to Alaska to begin "life all over again," but pennies to peanuts he will be holding a public office up there in less than six months or a year, if he has not gone up there expecting that very thing to come to him at once. E. C. Duel, a Seattle police officer, has been on a two months' vacation and returned for duty one day this week. Duel, on the whole, is one of the squarest men that ever wore a policeman's star or uniform, and when he testifies in court or otherwise you can pretty safely put it down that he is telling the truth. "I visited Oregon and California while away and saw much of the country in both of those states. I was in the mountains of Oregon for a few days, where I was charged $7 per day for board and lodging. At Kalamat Falls, a little mountain mining camp, I found a peculiar tribe of citizens. They always invite hundreds of outsiders to come there to do a piece of work that twenty-five men can do in less than thirty days. They were peculiar from the fact that their fingers were from two to three inches longer than that of the average American. I think nature has made them that way so they can the more easily extract everything that an outsider happens to have in his pockets when he gets there. Well, honest to my profession, I did not take a 'drink' while there, because it is against the principles of the Association of Policemen to ever take anything when he has to pay for it, but while there I saw on an average of fifty snaks for every hundred feet I walked. The town is really a snake resort. I saw so many of them that I wondered to myself if I had really broken the law and taken enough booze to make me see snakes when there really were none to see. California! Oh, yes! That is an out-of-sight state, and so far as I am concerned it will remain out of sight. I go to my beat today and I guess it will hold me for a while." Last week Detective A. G. Lane almost instantly took the life of a man who was only acting suspiciously. The man is not yet dead, but the gun shot he received, if it does not kill him, has made of him a cripple and a public charge for life. Lane had no excuse or justification for taking Anderson's life, and in doing so he again showed his willingness to shoot a human being as indiscriminately as he would a wild and vicious varmint. Not many months ago Lane went to the home of a respectable family and without cause or justification beat the young man all but insensible with a great gun, and it was apparent to those who witnessed it that if the boy had have raised his hands in defense he would have been shot down instantly. Prior to that Lane was led to the scene of a robbery by a stool pigeon, who was also in the burglar's plot, and he lay in wait for his victim, and no sooner had he entered the store than Lane opened fire on him, and he was picked up dead a few minutes thereafter. From time to time Lane and Adams hav shot men down like beasts and nothing has been done about it. This man Lane is a dangerous, if not vicious officer, and his willingness to shoot human beings because he is a city detective and can crawl out of it behind his badge is too apparent for the good of the community, and it seems that the city would lose nothing by dismissing such ready gun actors from the detective service. That was a laughable joke in last Sunday's Post-Intelligencer, which related of Dr. Yandell's experience in trying to get John T. Gayton, the well-known Afro-American Federal Court messenger of this city, to vote the Democratic ticket in 1896. If Dr. Yandell would tell Mr. Gayton that he (Gayton) ever used the word "marse" to him, Gayton would spit in his face, and if Dr. Yandell's boy should make such an accusation against Gayton in public the latter would beat his vulgar cocoanut into a pulp. The laughable thing, however, about the whole matter was the language that was put in Gayton's mouth, which, from a lie standpoint, was the captain lie of the year, for Mr. Gayton uses a good deal better English than does Dr. Yandell himself. If Dr. Yandell tried to induce Gayton to vote the Democratic ticket it was only when he was a candidate on that ticket for office, as the doctor himself was never known to be strongly Democratically inclined and it is claimed that he left Yazoo because he insisted on fostering new parties in opposition to the Democratic oleogarchy, which under no circumstances was tolerated in Mississippi. The article in question said: "Dr. Yandell was now engaged in farming on Whidby island," which comes nearer being his "size" than anything he has attempted to do since he reached his majority. Trying to make professional men out of railsplitters and woodchoppers is an awful uphill business. Friday. September 16. 1904. The Seattle Republican H. R. Cayton.....Editor Susie Revels Cayton.....Associate SUBSCRIPTION RATES. One Year .....$2.00 Six Months .....1.00 Three Months ......60 Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second-class Mail Matter. A four-round duel with pistols between a couple of Negro physicians in St. Joseph, Mo., is evidence of the fact that the Negro race, in Missouri, at least, is "risin'." Detective Lane continues to be handy with his gun whenever there is an opportunity to get his man. Wonder what afront did his latest victim offer him the day before that he felt called upon to shoot him down the following night? Nothing would make votes for Roosevelt in the North more rapidly than to flood the North with a parcel of Southern Democrats to make speeches like unto the one made by Clark Howell at that Democratic editorial frost in New York last week. "As goes Maine so goes the country" sounds good to Republicans all over the country this year. The two notorious Negro imposters of this city who continue to fleece the public out of money under the pretext of founding a library for colored folk and build a church, and neither being done or contemplated, should be summarily driven out of town, and the sooner the better.

You and each of you, including said persons unknown, are hereby notified that the above named plaintiff, M. Pyatt, is the holder of one delinquent tax certificate, No. B-26265, issued by the County Treasurer of King county, Washington, issued June 30th, 1904, for the taxes of 1900, amounting to six and 38-100 ($6.38) dollars, including interest thereon at 15 per cent per annum and certificate fee, upon and against lot twenty-four (24) in block one (1), Montrose Addition, Seattle, King county, Washington.

You and each of you, including said persons unknown, if any, are hereby further notified and summoned to be and appear within sixty days after the service of this notice Mr. T. B. Morten of San Francisco, who is a bailiff in Judge Morrow's court, spent a few days in the city this week. Mr. Morton is one of the active Afro-American politicians of the Golden Gate State and says, it will give Roosevelt the largest majority that it has given any Republican for many years. He left for home last Thursday. Mr. Henry Scott, who for many years was a Franklin miner, returned to Seattle after an absence of five years, during which time he has been running an engine at Beaverhill mines in Oregon. A number of celored men, who have been living about towns for years, went over in Klickitat county and took up homesteads one day last week, some eighteen miles from the railroad and on lands that at present have no way of being irrigated, and they expect to move thereon in less than six months. These men have tired of being kicked around from pillow to post, begging for work from those who have plenty of work to give, but refused them the same because their skins are black, and they therefore have sought homes in the country on farms, where they can begin the raising of "hog and hominy" and whether they will look just as scrumptious in appearance as city folk will cut no ice with them. They prefer it to being refused work and then persecuted when hunger drives them to breaking the law in order to get the common necessities of life. The Negro all over this country will yet learn that the country on a farm of his own is the place for him to make his start in life. The farmer who raises the food for the city laborer in the United States is after all the lord of the land. Wheat is already beyond the "dollar mark" and threatens within another year to reach the double dollar mark and the farmer with a hundred acres of wheat in cultivation, which yields him even as low as twenty-five bushels to the acre is simply a bloated bondholder or his equal the very first year. There are thousands, yea millions of acres of government land in the state of Washington open for location to the honest homesteader and it is the best thing for the average black man to do for his own good to go out and take up a piece of government land and begin to raise produce from its fertile soil that will bring him returns almost the equal of a gold mine.

Large assortment to select from, at 816 3rd Ave. Friday, September 16, 1904 POLITICAL POT=PIE Much has been said from time to time by the Daily Belzebub—Lord of the Dung—about Jack Williams' many qualifications to fill the office of sheriff of King county, but we fear his qualifications will not bear very close investigation. It is quite true that he was shot by Harry Tracy, and this is being retold all over the county as the real thing and his chief merit for Republicans to elect him over their own party candidate. Because a deputy was shot by an outlaw is no justifiable excuse for Republicans to support him. Then what will it take to induce city Republicans to support a county Republican nominated for a county office? The ravings of the Belzebub to the contrary notwithstanding no one in King county believes that Lou Smith has ever gotten one cent of the county's money that he did not honestly earn, and that is a good deal more than some other folk can boast of. Quite a job lot of political capital has been attempted to be made out of the resigning of Jack Williams as deputy sheriff during the time he is making his shrivealty campaign. That it was done as campaign buncombe pure and simple is as plain as the nose on a dog's face, for such is neither exacted or expected of men holding public positions and yet seeking other positions. If it were, all persons holding an office and renominated for another should resign during the time they are making their second campaign. If Williams has resigned he is simply playing to the galleries for election votes and after all his resignation is but a political deception. If he meant well it does not look well and the Piemaker is of the opinion that not many Republicans will vote for him next November because he did resign. The whole thing smacks too extensively of a grand stand play or a jack-in-the-box with some unseen hand pulling the string. Now, if Jack Williams was and is so willing as his resignation would indicate to return to the county "conscience money," why did he, during the three weeks he was making his convention campaign—not reporting for duty for three whole weeks—draw his regular salary for the whole month the same as if he had been at work? Strange as it may seem, Mr. Williams also presented for payment the heaviest expense account for that month that he had ever before done. However honest the expense account may have been, it certainly had the earmark of paying personal campaign expenses out of the county funds. To practice what he preaches Mr. Williams should return to the county that month's salary and every dollar of that expense account—that, Jack, would be perfect consistency. Candidate Smith has not resigned, nor he will not do so, because Republicans look upon such as poitical clap-trap. During all the time Williams was laying up on account of wonuds he was drawing his salary every month. After he was able THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN to be up and about, perfectly able to do light office work, he knocked about town and for months never reported for duty but one day in the month, and that was when he reported for his salary voucher. This went on until the county commissioners informed the sheriff that unless Jack Williams reported for duty at once his pay would be stopped. Prior to that he was too much disabled to begin work, but when the commissioners threatened to stop his pay unless he reported for duty immediately if not sooner he was at the office the next morning. There may not have been a "nigger in the woodpile" as to Williams laying away from the office only on pay day, but under a calcium light it greatly resembled one. Lou Smith will come to the city gates on election day with a four-to-one vote over his opponent, Williams, and it will be up to the Republicans in the city to either elect or defeat him. They will have no excuse for defeating him unless it be because he has been a lifelong and consistent Republican. For the past thirty years he has been fighting the battles of his party, and if that is a justifiable excuse for Republicans voting for a Democratic nominee for sheriff, then Williams the Democrat, instead of Smith, the Republican, should be elected. But what of Williams' record as a criminal deputy? How many real criminals has he arrested since last January? There are those about the courthouse, who ought to know whereof they speak, who declare Williams has not made an important arrest this year, and yet he has drawn the biggest and best salary of any deputy in the sheriff's office every month. He is certainly a Democratic Jack, but he is far from being a crack-a-jack official. Chairman Snodgrass of Stevens county may have the words which he uttered in county convention last Saturday flung back at him some day when he would least appreciate them. "The Republican state convention gave Stevens county nothing and need not expect any help from Stevens," is what he is reported as having said on the floor of the convention. If Stevens county can stand such obstreperous talk the Republican party can stand it, but Stevens county Republicans will want and ask a good deal more from the Republicans of this state than she may get, and for no other reason than for the damphool remarks of Chairman Snodgrass. The few votes in Stevens county will not bear very heavily on the general results one way or the other, and such small counties will find thmeselves in a most awkward political state of affairs some day by trying to play the independent role in politics. They must be either Republicans or Democrats. Straddling the fence and braying at both parties smacks largely of the ass that had covered himself up with a lion's skin and stood on the highway trying to intimidate the passing throng by making them think he was a lion, but his bray gave him dead away. Teddy's letter of acceptance didn't mince at words. The Democrats now know that Parker's is but a forlorn presidential hope. Parker-Belmont-Taggert Trust Company having failed to reduce the usual Republican majority in Maine last Monday, which the concern faithfully promised to do, the gang is weakening on the telegraph candidate. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION. State of Washington, Office of the Secretary of State. To whom it 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 of said state: Sec. 11, Article 1, of the constitution of the state of Washington shall be amended to read as follows: Sec. 11. Absolute freedom of conscience in all matters of religious sentiment, belief and worship shall be guaranteed to every individual and no one shall be molested or disturbed in person or property on account of religion; but the liberty of conscience hereby secured shall not be so construed as to excuse acts of licentiousness or justify practices inconsistent with the peace and safety of the state.

Provided, however, that this article shall not be so construed as to forbid the employment by the state of a champlain for the state penitentiary, and for such of the state reformatories as in the discretion of the legislature may seem justified. No religious qualifications shall be required for any public office or employment, nor shall any person be incompetent as a witness or juror in consequence of his opinion on matters of religion, or be questioned in any court of justice touching his religious belief to affect the weight of his testimony. That there shall be printed on all ballots supplied to said election the words: "For the proposed amendment of section eleven (11), of article one (1) of the constitution, giving to the legislature of the state of Washington the power of supplying chaplains for state penal and reformatory institutions," and "Against said proposed amendment to section eleven (11), of article one (1) of the constitution, giving to the legislature of the state of Washington the power of employing chaplains for the state penal and reformatory institutions."
