Historical Society SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905 Gov. Mead tonight addressed the following letter to Gov. Vardaman on the subject of the extradition: Governor Albert E. Mead signed the requisition papers which extradicted William McPhay and returned him to the state of Mississippi to stand trial for murder, but in doing so he made it so plain to the "‘I assure you William McPhay shall have a fair and impartial trial and all protection accorded by law. Negro that a fair trial or protection from mob violence could not be guaranteed him. Governor Albert E. Mead signed the requi dicted William McPhay and returned him to stand trial for murder, but in doing so he authorities of Mississippi that McPhay must have a fair and impartial trial, the same as the greatest of the citizens of this country, that the friends of the accused man need feel no alarm that he will not be protected from mob violence or that he will be railroaded to the gallows on account of his color and nationality. That the readers of The Republican may see for themselves the kind of a man this state has for governor, when it comes to the protection of her citizens from mob violence, the entire correspondence between the two governors is herewith given: Olympia, March 11.—Gov. Mead tonight honored the requisition of Gov. Vardaman, of Mississippi, for the return of William McPhay, the Negro confined in the King county jail, wanted in Mississippi for murder. Before granting the requisition Gov. Mead received by telegraph the assurance of Gov. Vardaman and Attorney General Williams that the Negro would be accorded safety from personal violence. He also has the assurance of Sheriff F. M. Lee, of Pike county, Mississippi, the extraditing officer, that McPhay will not be confined in Pike county, but at Jackson, the capital of the state. The precaution was taken by Gov. Mead by reason of the appeals made to him by people interested in the Negro that a fair trial or protection from m guaranteed him. REVIVAL IN WALES Evan Roberts, the evangelist of the revival movement in Wales, gives four conditions that must be complied with before the outpouring of the Spirit can occur. It is the old message of the prophets, of John and of Jesus, "Repent," but he divides it thus: 1() Wipe out the past. Confess your sins to God and begin anew. (2) Remove everything doubtful, habit, practice, pleasure, sport or business. (3) Obey implicitly and immediately the promptings of the Spirit. (4) Confess Christ in public, profession privately being insufficient. It is a simple Gospel, and it is wonderfully honored. Whenever these conditions are accepted by a neighborhood the revival begins, without any evangelist. This accounts for the rapid spread of the reformation. Some special characteristics of the revival may be noted: The first and most noticeable is the absence of any effort to excite the fears. It is a revival without a hell, and the love of God for his children is the great ```markdown ``` GOVERNOR MEAD violence could not be "I assure you Wi and all protection acc thought presented. The next thing noticed is the high place given to prayer and song. The revival has made the prayer meeting the great working service of the church. It appeals primarily to the young people, but it also reaches all ages, and a woman of 94 years was converted at Abercynffig. For the first time women have been given an important work to do. Bands of young women accompany the evangelists to sing, and some have developed into effective speakers, winning many converts without the aid of the men. The humility of great ministers is worthy of mention. They give way to the young unordained evangelists and assist them in every way. But it is results that count. The movement is killing sectarianism, which has been the bane of Welsh Protestantism in the past, and all the churches are holding union meetings where necessary. It is reviving the churches even in communities where practically all are church members. It is bringing an era of good feeling by healing all differences between church members, and some of the most sensational incidents of the meetings --- LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 UBLICAN CH 17, 1905 PRICE FIVE CENTS right addressed the following letter to Gov. Vardaman of the extradition: "State of Washington, Executive Department. "Olympia, Wash., March 11, 1905. "His Excellency James K. Vardaman, Governor of Mississippi, Jackson, Miss. "Dear Sir: On Tuesday, March 7, Mr. F. M. Lee, sheriff of Pike county, Mississippi, who is your accredited agent in the matter of the extradition of William McPhay, alleged fugitive from justice from Mississippi, presented extradition papers to me in order to forward the apprehension and delivery of William McPhay, now residing in this state, to the said F. M. Lee. As the matter was presented in the closing days of a session of our legislature, I was compelled on account of the pressure of public duties to postpone the matter until this date. Today I wired you as follows: "Hon. James K. Vardaman, Governor of Mississippi, Jackson, Miss.: "Fears are expressed by friends of William McPhay, Negro, for whom I have your requisition, that in case I honor it McPhay cannot be given fair trial and that summary vengeance will be visited upon him.

Mead, Governor of Washington: Continued on page 4 have been the public apologies and adjustments of differences. The addition of thirty-five thousand members to the various churches has roused them to the greatest activity along all lines. But the movement reaches further: Liquor drinking has been greatly reduced in many places, and a number of taverns are closing for want of patronage. Arrests for drunkenness have been reduced fully 75 per cent in some towns. The theaters have been closed in the middle of the season, and many theatrical troupes have abandoned the principality. Clubs and dancing halls have been deserted. Quarreling and profanity are heard in the streets no longer, crimes and misdemeanors are rare, the drivers in the pits and the carters are more humane. A reformation that benefits dumb animals is complete. In the Rhondda valley, where so many forms of vice prevailed, a great change has come. But the reforamtion has gone still further: Pugilists have discontinued their meetings, a football club at Abertawe has disbanded because six of its members have been converted, and even more innocent Continued on page 4 Mr. H. R. Cayton, publisher of The Seattle Republican, a weekly issue, has compiled a "legislative manual" covering the Ninth Session of that body in Washington, and of considerable value. The manual is finely illustrated—giving a picture of the new State House in Olympia, the first Governor of the State, members of the Constitutional Convention and of the State Senate, together with the present Governor and Lieutenant-Governor, as well as pictures of members of the Supreme Court, the State Officials and other public men. Besides these, the names of the First Territorial Legislature, Territorial officials and the names of the members of every Legislature down to the present time are given. The manual is a compilation requiring much labor and has been well done. Copies of the above Manual can be obtained at this office, 214 Columbia St.—The Seattle Republican. POLITICAL POT=PIE Frank H. Paul, the well known Seattle politician, who managed the Frink primary campaign, has announced his candidacy for the appointment as one of three tax commissioners, which is to be handed out by Gov. Mead at no very distant date. It is almost conceded that neither of the railroad commissioners will come from Seattle, and therefore it is more than likely that that very fact strengthens Mr. Paul's candidacy. Frank Paul is one of the best known politicians in King county and he has received the strongest lot of indorsements from the leading politicians of the county than any one else seeking an appointment at the hands of the governor. * * * Gov. Mead, having either vetoed or signed all of the bills passed by the late legislature, is now foot loose to visit the various state institutions, as well as the various sections on the state, that he may inquire into the needs of the former and gather from the latter some facts concerning the political situation that will strengthen the party in the shape of appointments. * * * It is predicted that the new federal court of Eastern Washington will organize within the next two weeks. Judge Whitson's nomination was confirmed by the senate one day this week and it is expected that the president will send the names of J. B. Lindsley as district attorney and George H. Baker, U. S. marshal, within the next week, whereupon the court will at once organize for business. * * * James M. Brewster is another well known King county politician that is seeking favors at the hands of Gov. Mead, he desiring to hold the position of oil inspector, which the governor will fill within the next few days. Mr. Brewster was a candidate for county clerk before the last Republican county convention and made a most favorable showing, and it is freely predicted he would have been nominated had not the senatorial contest en- [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie and a mustache.] JAMES M. BREWSTER. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN tered so strongly into the race. Gov. Mead would certainly make no mistake if he should appoint Jim Brewster to the place he seeks. * * * Ex-Gov. Henry McBride finds himself in the position of having sacrificed his political life for a reform which has been brought about more through that sacrifice than by any other influence. In the campaign of 1902 he crystallized and made an issue of a question that had been agitated more or less in former years, but had never been formulated into a state issue. Whatever may have been his motives, he alone was responsible for the railway commission becoming an issue, and for that reason the railway influences determined to root him out of his strong position in the Republican party. By the aid of other conflicting interests, they were able to accomplish their purpose as to Mr. McBride personally, but that victory only solidified the people and added strength to the commission wing of the party and intensified the same feeling which existed in the Democratic party. McBride is apparently dead, at the hands of the railroads; but in that assassination they over-reached themselves and brought about the very thing they sought to prevent. Now, if Gov. Mead will be as honest with himself and the people as he appears to desire, and appoint a commission not antagonistic to its purpose, he will vindicate Henry McBride and write his own name so high in the esteem of his people that his position will be secure against all the attacks of the lobbyists, and the calling of the lobby will become practically obsolete.—Wilbur Register. DIRECT PRIMARY When the late legislature refused to give the citizens of this state the direct primary law it not only put itself on record as opposing the wishes of the Republicans of this state, but it went on record as opposing a measure that is popular throughout the West and in many of the states in the East and the South, as will be seen from the following from the New York Outlook: "The movement toward the nomination of public officers by direct vote of the people and the abolition of the so-called convention system has received a stimulus by the passage of a primary law in North Dakota which has just been signed by Gov. Sarles, and by the agitation in favor of primary election by the (From The Seattle Daily Times.) Mr. H. R. Cayton, publisher of sue, has compiled a "legislative of that body in Washington, and is finely illustrated-giving a picture, the first Governor of the Statevention and of the State Senate, the Lieutenant-Governor, as well as Court, the State Officials and names of the First Territorial L names of the members of every L FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905 legislatures of South Dakota and other Western states. North Dakota's primary law is the result of a compromise between the radical and conservative political forces of the state, the former favoring a sweeping provision which would include all state officers, and the latter a law which would exempt from its operation the governor and most of the leading state officers. The compromise law covers city and county officers and members of the legislature, but exempts judges and other state officers. To satisfy the radical forces, however, the conservative members of the legislature consented to a provision by which delegates to the state convention will be elected by direct vote, thus doing away with county conventions. The North Dakota primary is a notable contrast to the new Wisconsin law which was approved by the people at the last election and will go into effect this fall. The Wisconsin law, which is largely the result of Senator Robert M. La Follette's labors, is perhaps the most sweeping primary law in the United States. It covers all state officers from the governor down, except judges and the state superintendent of schools. A unique feature of the law is that itp rovides for the nomination of candidates for United Statse senator by direct vote of the people. The supposition is that the candidate nominated by the people will bee lected by the legislature. This is about as near an approach to popular election of United States senators as can be made without the passage of an amendment to the United States constitution. The legislature of Minnesota, which was one of the first states to adopt a primary law, is in the midst of extending the law to all state officers. The Minnesota system, which is very similar to the one adopted by North Dakota, has worked in a fairly satisfactory manner, and there is strong sentiment in favor of extending it to cover the governor, attorney general, justices of the supreme court, and other state officers now nominated by state conventions. A unique plan is under consideration and will probably be adopted. This plan provides for the holding of state conventions and for the submission of the three candidates for each office receiving the largest votes to the people to be voted upon at the primary election held in September. This plan will prevent a multiplicity of candidates and will provide for the adoption of party platforms by representative conventions. FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905. ANEGRO'S CHANCE The article on "A Negro's Chance," contributed a few weeks ago to the Saturday Evening Post by Congressman B. G. Humphrey, of the Third Mississippi district, is unique in that it entirely lacks the rancor and passion usually manifested in the writings of Southern men on the race problem. The mere amenity of this article would greatly encourage us, did we not suspect it due to the good nature of triumph rather than to the sympathy of philanthropy. We fear that Mr. Humphrey's smile would be on the other side of his face if those sharp schemes, of which he is so proud, for disfranchising the Afro-American had miscarried. Mr. Humphrey begins with the conventional vaunting over the history of the Anglo Saxon. We admit, what we could not deny if we would, that the Anglo Saxon's history has been glorious. We can even say that without the Anglo Saxon civilization today would have been materially changed for the worse. But we must not forget that the Anglo Saxon was once far lower than the Afro-American now is. When the original Angles and Saxons conquered Britain, they mixed with the native Britons. These Britons submitted to the Romans after a war which was, says Gibbon, "undertaken by the most stupid, maintained by the most dissolute, and terminated by the most timid of all the Roman emperors." The conquerors contemptuously intrusted the maintenance of dominion to three legions, or, including cavalry, artillery and auxiliaries, about 36,000 men. The legionaries of Rome looked with astonished disgust upon the troops of howling, naked barbarians who prusued on foot the wild deer through the British forests. But worse was yet to come. The conglomerate race of Angles, Saxons, Danes and Britons were crushed to the earth by the Normans and reduced to slavery; as badges of servitude they were compelled to wear ignominious brass collars, like dogs. The Norman of that day was wont to exclaim with indignation: "Do you take me for a Saxon?" much as a Southerner says today: "Do you think I'm a nigger?" Although we admire the achievements of the race loosely known as the Anglo Saxon, we believe it to be far from perfect, especially in the South. It is a notorious fact that the prisons of London were drained to furnish population for many of the Southern states; and to find wives for these criminals, wretches convicted of the most flagrant crimes, the bawdy houses of London were emptied of prostitutes. From such a disgraceful origin sprang a vast number of those white men who in the South today rant most fiercely about the "divine Anglo Saxon." This is a mere aside, however. Mr. Humphrey's real thesis is that the only solution of the race problem is the disfranchisement of the black man. It may be shocking to some to hear a congressman of the United States so frankly advocate a violation of the fifteenth amendment of the United States constitution. Mr. Humphrey thinks, however, that he has escaped this offense with great ingeniousness. The letter of the fifteenth amendment, boasts THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN he, has not been outraged. The black man has not been, ostensibly, disfranchised because he is black, but because he cannot read the constitution, does not pay his taxes, and does not register. On the other hand, Mr. Humphrey confesses, with disreputable can dor, that these qualifications were adopted with the definite purpose of disfranchising the black man because he is black. Mr. Humphrey's conscience is no doubt quieted by the reflection that he has violated only the spirit, but not the letter, of the law he has sworn to uphold. A fatal defect of these schemes of disfranchisement is that they are in their nature temporary. By relying on the Afro-American's procrastination, ignorance and timidity, Mr. Humphrey and his kind can now control the government in the Yazoo Delta district, without any violent outrage upon the law. But what will they do when the Afro-American achieves, as he is sure to achieve, enterprise, intelligence and spirit? We fear that when this occurs Mr. Humphrey will be even less willing to share the government with black men than he now is. At present Mr. Humphrey would be almost certain, on account of his superior education and experience, to have a powerful voice in his state affairs if Afro-Americans were admitted to the suffrage. But will he be nearly so certain of power when numerous Afro-Americans are his equals in learning, experience and ambition? We fear that Mr. Humphrey if he still holds to his opinion that the white man is divinely appointed to rule, will be sooner or later reduced to abandoning the Yazoo valley to the Afro-American, a thing which will hardly be done, or subduing him by force, as in the merry days of the Ku-Klux-Klan. But how will Mr. Humphrey then elude violating the letter of the fifteenth amendment as well as its spirit? But disfranchisement being accomplished by legal means for an illegal purpose, what of its effects? Mr. Humphrey claims that they are so beneficial as to constitute a solution of the race problem. According to him, disfranchisement has caused a certain number of Afro-Americans of the Yazoo valley to own homes and farms, to become qualified doctors, lawyers, pharmacists and artisans, to manage stores and banks, and to escape lynching. But that there exists a causal relation between disfranchisement and these achievements we most emphatically deny. If Mr. Humphrey's contentions were well founded we should, for instance, invariably find the number of lynchings increasing wherever the Afro-American is enfranchised. Such is, however, not the case. In 1903 Mississippi, Mr. Humphrey's own state, with an Afro-American population of 907,630, led all the states in the Union in lynchings, 18 persons having met death there from this cause. In Texas, Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee, with an Afro-American population of 1,616,-401, only 13 persons were lynched during the same time. In Mississippi the "revised constitution" upon which Mr. Humphrey piques himself, is in full force. In Texas, Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee the "revised constitution" has not yet been introduced. In Mississippi in 1900, 17,118 Afro-Americans owned their own homes. In Texas, which has only two-thirds of Mississippi's Afro-American population, 23,206 Afro-American families owned their homes in 1900. In 1900 21,973 Afro-Americans owned farms in Mississippi. In Texas and Kentucky, with a combined Afro-American population not quite equal to that of Mississippi, 25,541 Afro-Americans were farm owners. But why pile up statistics? Those already cited, we believe, fatally disable Mr. Humphrey's opinions. As fatal to them also is plain common sense, which tells us that it is impossible for men, oppressed and intimidated, to equal the achievements of men who are free and spirited.—New York Age. Santo Domingo is an independent country containing about 20,000 square miles of territory, or about half that of the state of Ohio, with a scattered population estimated at 500,000, or less than half that of the Borough of Brooklyn. It is independent in the sense that it has a flag of its own and owes allegiance to no one. But its independence is a travesty on the inalienable right of all men to enjoy the privilege of self-government. It is a country where every man is truly born free and equal, with a true democracy wherein generals are without armies, and soldiers are on an equality with their generals. There is no aristocracy, and every one is free to do as he pleases, provided he keeps out of politics. The people pay no taxes, there is no internal revenue, scarcely any administration of law, and less of justice, and government is a farce. * * * Deaf persons need no longer be deprived of the privilege of hearing their favorite pastor's sermons. Take an ordinary desk stand transmitter and to the mouthpiece fasten a common metal electric light shade, about 12 inches in diameter. Place on the pulpit desk and from this stand the wires run to a pew near the front of the church. In the pew arrange seevral receivers. * * * The project of damming the Mississippi between Keokuk, Iowa, and Hamilton, Ill., if carried out, will result in the largest power plant in the world. The largest plant at Niagara will develop 50,000 horse-power. The plant at Keokuk is planned to deevlop not less than 60,000 horse-power, which will be available for the surrounding towns for a radius of 60 miles. It will call for an investment of not less than $6,000,000 and will be built entirely without cost to the government. The dam and lock will cost $3,000,000 and the installation of turbines, dynamos and converters will call for an equal amount. The federal government is to control the dam. * * * From every point of view the record of the Young Men's Christian Association during the past five years may be examined, progress is apparent. Tested by every standard of measurement by which the growth and usefulness of an organization can be tried, it is seen that the last five years have witnessed as great a growth and progress as the entire previous forty-seven years of its history. The total number of associations in this country is now 1,815; of employed officers, 2,000; of enrolled members, 373,502. * * * As the planet turns upon its axis more than ours the calendar of the inhabitants of Mars is composed of two consecutive years of 668 days and a bisextile one of 669 days.

It is bearly possible that that judicial life appointment was the largest fee Ed. Whitson ever received for legal services. If Bryan does not look out he will yet discover that he has actually become a Roosevelt-La Follett Republican, and that, too, without being aware of the change. "White supremacy" is getting a terrible black eye in and about Manchuria and Mukden. Mississippi's dominating citizens may be white men, but they certainly are not "white men," and Governor Mead's correspondence clearly demonstrates that. "Presidential booms are already beginning to sprout," says the Tacoma News. Is Editor Perkins speaking from heresay or personal knowledge? Despite the fact that it is the first opportunity the Republicans of Missouri have ever had to elect a United States senator, they do not seem inclined to take advantage of their opportunity. Money does not make the man, and there is no better proof of that than Klondike Stander, who, notwihtstanding his millions, is a periodical boozer. "A magazine with an idea behind it," is a magazine motto. The idea, however, may be so very far behind it that it will never get near enough to the magazine to get into it. Kuropatkin must be convinced by this time that "I am a white man" is not an absolute guarantee of success, even when opposing black men. An admirer of The Seattle Republican writes us, "You are doing good work;" yet, in spite of constant work, we seem to fall short in the number of victims "we do." McPHAY EXTRADICTED Continued from page 1. "'JAMES K. VARDAMAN.' "I have also received a telegram dated today, signed by William Williams, the attorney general of your state, as follows: "'Gov. Albert E. Mead: "'If returned to Mississippi, McPhay will have a fair trial in the courts. "'WILLIAM WILLIAMS.' WELCOME TO THE NEW YORK CITY MUSEUM OF ART. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN "I desire to express in detail the reasons for this request and also to confirm the request set forth in my telegram. "I am advised that William McPhay, the prisoner demanded, is a resident of Ballard, in King county, Washington. His neighbors and friends testify to the fact that he is a man of good repute and standing in that community; that during his residence in this state he has the reputation of being an honest, reputable, sober and industrious citizen and that he has at all times provided for himself and family. "Under these circumstances, his circle of friends among the white population, as well as a large number of colored people in the city of Seattle, have become interested in his behalf and have expressed the hope that the authorities of this state could, without violating the law, prevent his return to the state of Mississippi. To this end, McPhay has presented his case to me through his attorney and a writ of habeas corpus proceeding has been pending in the superior court of King county and was appealed to the supreme court of the state. Today I had an audience with the chief justice of our supreme court and was notified by him, on behalf of the court, that no order had been entered that would prevent me from honoring the requisition papers presented by your agent. "I have mentioned briefly the history in this matter so as to impress upon you fully, governor, the fact that the undersigned as chief executive of this state, the friends of McPhay in the city of Ballard, as well as a large proportion of the colored population of the city of Seattle, are intensely interested in having the assurance that McPhay will receive a fair and impartial trial in the courts of your state. "I also desire to reiterate in detail the statement contained in my telegram, that many of the people I have mentioned fear that McPhay will be the victim of mob violence should he be returned to the scene of the alleged crime, and have, therefore, appealed to me to ask for this assurance from you on behalf of the colored man. "I also have the assurance of Mr. Lee, the sheriff, that until the time of his trial McPhay will be confined in the prison in the city of Jackson or in some prison adjacent to Pike county, and that all precautions will be taken to prevent any violence being visited upon McPhay by evilly-disposed persons. "In honoring this extradition, governor, I do so, having an abiding faith in your assurance that all the power at your command will be invoked to defeat and prevent any violence being visited upon McPhay, and that he will have the benefit of a fair and impartial trial in the courts of your state in accordance with the law of the land. "I desire to supplement the matter by also requesting that in the event of MePhay's acquittal of the crime set forth in the indictment, you will be equally interested in preventing any summary vengeance being visited upon him, and that no obstacle will be interposed by the authorities to prevent his return to his home and family in this state. "In conclusion, I beg leave to state that this requisition is granted upon the assurance of yourself, the attorney general and the sheriff that this man will be accorded his FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905. legal and constitutional rights the same as any citizen of high or low degree who is involuntarily removed from one state to another under extradition process to answer any criminal charge. "I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant. "ALBERT E. MEAD. "Governor of Washington." On Monday, Gov. Vardaman again wired Gov. Mead, instructing Sheriff Lee to report to him with McPhay, instead of going to Pike county, which message was forwarded, as the sheriff, with his prisoner, had left for the South. REVIVAL IN WALES Continued from page 1 pleasures and sports have been forced to give way before the Puritan wave. A mass of unbelievers do not yet attend the meetings, but even they seem overawed, and there is a hush over little Wales. Churchmen agree that the movement is the greatest visitation of the benign influence in the history of the island, and it may extend to all parts of the kingdom and across the Atlantic. * * * THE NAUGHTINESS OF CHILDREN "The Naughtiness of Children" is discussed by E. S. Martin, and the author's general viewpoint is indicated by the following excerpt: But as to naugtiness. It is a deviation then from the parents' or teachers' standards. And as infants are not born with standards of conduct ready made ordinary naughtiness is a natural incident of training. The child is not born obedient. Teaching him the necessary measure of obedience is a gradual, experimental process, punctuated by deviations into disobedience, which are naughty. A child is not born truthful. On the contrary, it is born weak, and deceit is the natural refuge of the weak. The training of the child in veracity is a process which may be expected to yield some lies, and lies are certainly naughty. Some children get by birth much more politeness than other children do. Manners and courtesy seem to come natural to some children and are attained with difficulty, if at all, by others. The training of children in manners will, of course, result in the precipitation of much naughtiness, but that is all in the day's work and it is not a thing for parents to lose sleep over. Even when brothers or sisters join in a family squabble and are very slow in using one with another those graces of consideration and forbearance which are so necessary to harmonious living, even that should not make the solicitous parent despair. Man by nature is a contentious beast. He is born into a world in which even now many problems have to be settled by blows and in which disputes never cease. To teach him gentleness is an exploit, and especially to teach him gentleness to his equals or to persons smaller than himself, whom he does not fear. It is naughty for children to quarrel, but that is a form of naugthiness the immediate eradication of which is not to be expected, and if is enough if steady progress is made toward amiability and self-control.

Nineteen of this group have been chosen to succeed themselves. * * * Owing to the peculiar condition of affairs the age limit in New York for beginning a life of viciousness has been lowered to five years. * * * A practical test of the efficiency of the United States government in maintaining the Monroe doctrine is afforded by the San Dominican protocol. More than 100,000,000 ties are used each year by the railroads of the country, requiring annually the entire product of 300,000 acres of woodland. In 1822 the first charter was obtained for a railroad in the United States. It was for a line from Philadelphia to a point on the Susquehanna river, but was never built. * * * An Arctic expedition for the sole purpose of making a collection of fleas returned in December from the far north after an absence from civilization of nearly four years. * * * A startling point made by Miss Drier's recent London statistics shows that 78 per cent of the illegitimate children born in the hospitals were born of mothers who were maids in private homes. * * * In some parts of Africa a woman never touches a needle; that is man's work, and a wife who can show a neglected rent in her petticoat is even considered to have a fair claim for a divorce. * * * Self-propelled electric motor cars carrying fuel and water for a full day, and making twenty miles an hour, are installed on a part of the Northern railway between Scarborough and Filey, England. The largest search light, of three hundred and sixteen million candle power, has been constructed at Nuremberg, Germany. If sufficient elevation could be obtained it would be visible eighty miles. * * * Cured of leprosy, with his face cleared of the feraful scurf of the disease, and with the glassy stare gone from his eyes, Louis Souiet, a Creole boy, was discharged as cured from the Lepers' Home in New Orleans last week. * * * A municipal grocery store has been run for some months at Kenosha, Wisconsin, under the management of one of the aldermen, for the benefit of dependents. A profit of $2,000 was earned during the first six months. There are close to 1,000,000 persons in this country who own the stocks and bonds of the railroads, a large percentage of whom are dependent on the income which they receive in interest and dividends on these securities. --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN A reliable horse, harness and buggy or phaeton carriage cannot be purchased for less than $500, and when we consider comparative cost of maintenance, an automobile at $750, or even $1,000 is by far the cheaper conveyance. *** There are 1,500,000 persons employed by the railroads. Supposing that each of these employes supports on an average four persons, it would appear that one person in every fourteen in the United States is supported directly by the railroads. * * * If there was ever necessity for the government to call on the churches as its agents in the work of education, that time has long since passed. Every arrangement for the state to help the church in teaching religion, or for the church to become the servant of the state in secular education portends only evil to both. * * * Drunkenness is to a large extent due to inherent mental defect, and that in very many cases the habitual drunkard only differs in degree from persons who can legally be termed of unsound mind. His mental disorder exhibits itself by insane actions and conduct rather than in the form of delusions and hallucinations. * * * Among the Papuans of New Guinea a man would think it indecorous and ridiculous to court a girl; it was the girl's privilege to take the initiative in this matter, and she exercised it with delicacy and skill and the best moral results, until the shocked missionaries upset the native system and unintentionally introduced looser ways. * * * A telegram by wireless was transmitted recently by William Marconi from the Marconi company's station at Poldhu, Cornwall, to a station belonging to the Italian government at Ancona, Italy. This route is almost entirely overland, the distance being about 1,000 miles. To reach their destination, the ether waves passed over France and part of Italy, including some of the highest mountains of the Alps. * * * The milk industry is greater than the steel. The steel industry is reported to represent $570,000,000, while that of milk exceeds $600,000,000. The milk stations along the Mohawk valley, in New York, recently cut the price of milk 12 cents per hundred pounds. It is reported that farms are declining in value there because of the exactions of the produce companies who pay low rates for farm produce and control supplies at high prices. * * * The wonder is sometimes expressed that birds have no instinctive fear of injury from electricity. If they rarely alight on conductors, this is perhaps because they sometimes feel there a degree of heat that seems to them abnormal or because of the noise due to the vibration of the wires by the wind. Another reason is probably that they like best to perch on trees or in the fields under the wild plants. --- FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905 The Paris plan of "school kitchens" has been in operation a number of years, and embraces the four following points. (1) Free meals to children known to be in want, whether their parents are paupers or not. (2) The establishment of canteens at various schools under the control of the mayor and school fund committee. (3) No meals to be served except on presentation of a token which can be bought or is given gratuitously to the children. (4) Secrecy as to whether the token is bought or received gratis. About eight million meals are served annually to the Paris school children, about 40 per cent of which are paid. --- The Seattle Republican Wants 500 New Subscribers By the First Day of May Start the Ball to Rolling by Sending in Your Name The Seattle Republican Seattle, Wash.

JAMES McNENY, Attorney. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Mrs. J. E. Hawkins and Miss Cora Oliver accompanied Mr. Hawkins to Olympia last Saturday. Mr. Hawkins was looking after the McPhay case. * * * Mrs. Frank T. Anderson left Seattle last Tuesday to join her husband, who is on his ranch in Benton County. Their postoffice address is Mabton, Wash. Messrs. John T. Gayton and others gave a social hop last Monday evening for the benefit of Mrs. William McPhay, who desired to return to Mississippi, whither her husband was taken by the officers of the law. Some 40 odd dollars were raised and she left Tuesday evening. Mr. Joseph B. Hagan spent a few days in the city this week, returning from Olympia, where he was employed in the senate of the ninth legislature. "The Virginia Girl," which comes to the Third Avenue Theatre next Sunday afternoon, being a new play, it will doubtless attract the usual Sunday crowd. Very little is known of the intrinsic merits of this attraction, as it has never been seen here before, and the press agent being unacquainted with the attraction he is exploiting, the writer has to furnish his own "dope." But "The Virginia Girl" has been a success in the East and South, where it has been presented for several years. The scene of the play is laid in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Old Virginia, where the men are more of the fire-brand order, and the women just as nice as any to be found anywhere in the world, sah! So if you go to see "The Virginia Girl" at the Third Avenue Theatre next week, you will doubtless enjoy it just as well as though the writer was able to give away the plot and tell you how the characters were dressed. The company presenting the play is composed of factors of reputation and ability.
