SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. XII. NO. 18 POLITICAL POT-PIE The Spokesman-Review is responsible for the story that Gen. James A. Drian of State militia will, in the very near future, be given a consular position in South Dakota, that Lieutenant Colonel Ortis Hass of Spokane will succeed Gen. Drain, captain Matt Gormley of Seattle will succeed Hamilton. Secretary Root is said to be jugging for Gen. Drain. Notwithstanding the fact Gen. Drain was first appointed to position he now holds by Gov. Rogers, child eyed Demo-Pop, he was re-appointed by Gov. McBride and re-appointed by Head, all of which is proof sufficient that was and is a most acceptable official merits all the consideration he has with the hands of three of the chief executives of this state. Gen. Drain in this enquiry distinction that no other appointive of the state has ever done. If Gen. Drain desires the contemplated change there is a newspaper or public man in the state that will not help him to get it for him all of their public as well as private existence, but the Pie-maker verily believes the sentiment of 99 per cent of citizens of the state in saying it is that James A.

While there may have been a lull in politics for a good many months once the election of Sam Piles to the state, nevertheless there seems to be nothing doing just now. The P.-I. public few days ago a rather plausible story, which was to the effect that a post-combine had been formed with Senator Lynn and others, which had for its object delving of Congressmen Humphrey Bushman and the bringing to the front of Brownell and some Spokane man, probably Postmaster M. T. Hartson. It was remembered that some two weeks ago the Pie-maker published a story to the effect there was strong talk among Spokane citizens supporting Congressman Jone. The Spokesman-Review is responsible for the story that Gen. James A. Drian of the state militia will, in the very near future, be given a consular position in South America, that Lieutenant Colonel Ortis Hamilton of Spokane will succeed Gen. Drain and Captain Matt Gormley of Seattle will succeed Hamilton. Secretary Root is said to be lagging for Gen. Drain. Notwithstanding the fact Gen. Drain was first appointed to the position he now holds by Gov. Rogers, a wild eyed Demo-Pop, he was re-appointed by Gov. McBride and re-appointed by Gov. Mead, all of which is proof sufficient that he was and is a most acceptable official and merits all the consideration he has won at the hands of three of the chief executives of this state. Gen. Drain in this enjoys a distinction that no other appointive official in the state has ever done. If Gen. Drain desires the contemplated change there is not a newspaper or public man in the state but that will not help him to get it for he has all of their public as well as private confidence, but the Pie-maker verily believes he voices the sentiment of 99 per cent of the citizens of the state in saying it is hoped that James A. Drain will remain at his present post. The National Guard of this state is what it is today because it has had a Gen. Drain at its head and while there may be other equally as efficient as he, yet he has had the experience and a new man would have to go all over what he has gone over. * * * While there may have been a lull in state politics for a good many months or ever since the election of Sam Piles to the senate, nevertheless there seems to be something doing just now. The P.-I. published a few days ago a rather plausible political story, which was to the effect that a political combine had been formed with Senator Ankeny and others, which had for its object the shelving of Congressmen Humphrey and Cushman and the bringing to the front Frank Brownell and some Spokane man, presumably Postmaster M. T. Hartson. It will be remembered that some two weeks ago the Pie-maker published a story to the effect that there was strong talk among Spokane politicians supporting Congressman Jones for M. H. CAPT. MATT H. GORMLEY SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1905 [Name] GEN. JAMES A. DRAIN. United States senator with the hope of getting his strength to have the east side congressman come from Spokane. That the story was not wholly devoid of truth is proven by the Ankeny push getting busy at once and beginning to form a combine against the possibility of such a line-up and to head it off they offered Mr. Jones no opposition at the next convention nor any at any future convention at least for some time to come for renomination, if he would consent to lay low and permit Cushman and Humphrey to be dumped. Whether or not Mr. Jones has given his consent to this program the Piemaker is not posted, but among the politicians it is very generally believed that he has not. It will be two years before Senator Ankeny will actually be on the rack, but next year half of the senators are to be elected, who will be in the senate when he is up for re-election and he will, if he desires to succeed himself, have to begin early in next year, if not in this year, to both saw wood and cut bait. * * * "I am inclined to believe," said a prominent newspaper man one day this week after he had read the story in the P.-I. "that Benjamin Groscup is behind this whole scheme. He has worked Senator Ankeny up to making such a combination on the theory that it was to Ankeny's best political good, when, in fact, it is being done in the interest of Groscup himself. Just as sure as the time rolls round and Groscup is alive and in good health, he will be a candidate for the senate to succeed Levi Ankeny. With Eastern Washington united for Ankeny even he then will not have a cake walk for reelection. While this combination, if it works will give him that side of the mountain, Groscup will see to it that Western Washington with the exceptions of King County is anti-Ankeny. With the aid of the railroad influence Groscup hopes to whip Piles into line and he in turn will say to his King county supporters it will be to the best political interest of King county to stand with Pierce county and with such a combination an election will be so high in the air that Groscup, who will have the railroad influ- LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 BLICAN ICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS that his back, will be able to take the on the voting, which he hopes to keep he is declared the junior senator from Washington.

Both senators and representatives are to be elected for that legislature, he thinks, he has the whip hand and components on account of his railroad in- ness. There is no doubt in my mind he armed that Grosecup firmly believes he succeed Ankeny in the United States. * * * Bury County Clerk E. C. Raine had a may supper last Monday evening and of his friends who were present on occasion ate to his continued health and ness by the light of thirty-two candles. He represented the number of years he has been in existence. Of course, thou- that had "a bird of a time," and lost me on getting in out of the Raine, for the presence of the genial hostess only a time could be had by any one. For me, Mr. Raine has enjoyed a good de- eer good things the gods provide in the of public favor. He, though born un- the English flag, came to the United state when a mere child, and early in life to King county to make a permanent for himself. Since his maturity he h twice elected to the house of represen- tion of the legislature of this state, and year was a formidable candidate for the station of county clerk, and was doub- famed by the successful candidate and brief deputy on account of his strong ing in the county convention for the state. He is prominent in the political o- ration in this city known as the Young Republican Club, and it was his pop- erty among the members of the organiz- ation that gave him the most of his strength in last county convention.

Yes, it is quite true that Pierce county has other senatorial aspirants, but Groscup is not giving them much consideration, because he controls the railroad forces in that county and he will be able, he thinks, to capture every member of the legislature therefrom. Both senators and representatives are to be elected for that legislature, hence, he thinks, he has the whip hand of his opponents on account of his railroad influence. There is no doubt in my mind he re-affirmed that Groscup firmly believes he will succeed Ankeny in the United States senate. Deputy County Clerk E. C. Raine had a birthday supper last Monday evening and those of his friends who were present on that occasion ate to his continued health and happiness by the light of thirty-two candles, which represented the number of years he had been in existence. Of course, those present had "a bird of a time," and lost no time in getting in out of the Raine, for in the presence of the genial hostess only a good time could be had by any one. For his age, Mr. Raine has enjoyed a good deal of the good things the gods provide in the shape of public favor. He, though born under the English flag, came to the United States when a mere child, and early in life came to King county to make a permanent home for himself. Since his maturity he has been twice elected to the house of representatives of the legislature of this state, and last year was a formidable candidate for the nomination of county clerk, and was doubtless named by the successful candidate as his chief deputy on account of his strong following in the county convention for the place. He is prominent in the political organization in this city known as the Young Men's Republican Club, and it was his popularity among the members of the organization that gave him the most of his strength in the last county convention. Unless something "bigger" comes along he is in line to succeed Capt. Case after he will have served his two terms out. Speaking about railroad influence electing a Republican to the United States senate from this state reminds the Pie-maker of a PETER H. HARRIS RAINE HON. EDGAR C. RAINE * * * * * * statement by a very prominent politician one day this week, which was to the effect that James J. Hill cherished the hope that the railroad influence under the directorship of L. C. Gillman, the chief western counsellor for the Great Northern, would throw Washington in the Democratic column in 1908 and without fail in 1912, when the Democrats all over the country intended to make the rally of the life of the party to win. A representative of Mr. Hill has publicly announced the Great Northern is out of politics, which, retorts a Republican politician, is to an extent true, but it is Republican politics from which the Great Northern has temporarily withdrawn, and it has done this with the view of plunging headlong into Democratic politics. * * * Mr. Hill may be able to land this state into the Democratic column, but it will take more midnight rides like unto the one made by J. D. Farrell, when he went from Seattle to Tacoma on his special in 50 minutes in order to have the Republican state convention nominate Albert E. Mead for the governorship of this state. Republicans only in isolated instances are tiring of following the lead of Democrats, who lead first to their own selfish aggrandizement and secondly to the disruption of the Republican party. PORTLAND. SEATTLE AND TACOMA. Portland people are, naturally, elated by the decision of the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern to build and operate jointly a new railroad into that city from Kennewick, on the Northern Pacific, down the north bank of the Columbia river. This practically makes Portland a three railroad town, where it has been a one, for while the Northern Pacific has a line from Tacoma down to Portland, the haul by that roundabout way, over the Cascade range, was so long and expensive that the Northern Pacific has not been a troublesome competitor of the Harriman system in Oregon. Naturally, too, there is some concern in the Puget Sound cities of Seattle and Tacoma over this bold stroke by the Hill lines. Seattle, in recent years, had rather taken the lead over Portland in population and commercial supremacy. This new turn of events puts Portland again in the running and may be the means of giving that city such an impetus as will leave Seattle to the rear. It is not clear how Tacoma, with only one railroad, the Northern Pacific, and sitting between two powerful rivals on the north and the south, can hope to recover the long gap which already separates it from Seattle and Portland. Tacoma, however, has resources and attractions which assure its continued growth and prosperity. Vice President Levey of the Northern Pacific, in an interview in the Tacoma Ledger, is considerate enough to allay Tacoma's natural feeling of alarm. Mr. Levey says it does not necessarily follow that the new line will divert the grain traffic of eastern Washington from Tacoma to Portland, as grain rates will remain the same to both ports and the destination of grain shipments will be a matter solely for the exporters to determine. In a preceding sentence, though, Vice President Levey, intentionally or unintentionally, disclosed the fact that the Northern Pacific will have a lively interest in this matter, when he said: "In addition to the mileage that will be saved, there will be a practically level grade into Portland, thus obviating a heavy haul over the mountains to Puget Sound with which we have to contend at present." It will of course cost the Northern Pacific more to haul a ton of wheat over the Cascade mountains to Tacoma than to haul it down the Columbia river to Portland, and if that company does not find a way to carry the burden to the easier destination it will indeed be deserving of Tacoma's gratitude. In any event a lively race between Seattle and Portland may be anticipated for the next four or five years. Seattle spirit is not the kind that throws up the sponge because its rival has a little better of the present round. The probabilities are that the progressive men who have done so much to build that fine city in the wilderness will set their jaws a little harder and go at the contest with renewed determination.—Spokesman- Review. Is it not a fact, Capt. Willard and the police in general, that 99 per cent of all fallen women living the lives of prostitutes are more or less notorious thieves? Is it not true that any woman who barters and sells herself to the animal passions of human brutes will steal from her victims? If you answer yes, and you can not do otherwise, why single out the few colored women for persecution while the thousand and one white women are never molested? The police department has evidently, during the absence of Chief Delaney, determined to put in operation a similar state of affairs as existed under Chief Willard some years ago, when Negroes were arrested and maltreated in prison to such an extent that the treatment accorded the Jews in Russia was mild in comparison. If Acting Chief Willard and his official associates would put forth as much energy in closing up the various gambling dens that are robbing hundreds of victims every night and day, that they are putting forth to prevent four Negro women from robbing "five dollar rounders" they would do the city and her citizens a hundred thousand times more good. Gambling is running in Seattle, and hush money is being paid. The police to an extent are well aware of the numerous open games. Now the question is, Who gets the money? Straining at a gnat in public and swallowing a camel in the dark will sooner or later come to light. TAINTED MONEY. We notice a good deal said by the clergy of America on the subject of "tainted" money. Some of our own local clergymen have expressed their opinions. The Repub- CAPITAL ..... $100,000 Cor.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 29, 1905 lican is heartily in favor of seeing a wrong condemned no matter where it occurs or when it occurs. It should be the purpose of every good citizen, every newspaper, every church and every truly American institution to lend its aid on the side of right and to condemn the wrong. The principle that created the "tainted" money, namely, the discriminating charges by public carriers and operators of public utilities, is right before us today in Seattle. We believe that it is more the part of a wise man to lend his aid to prevent "tainted" money from being created, than to be howling about it after it is created. Just for one illustration the Seattle Electric Company has public franchise for furnishing light to the citizens of Seattle. The acceptance of the franchise placed upon it the obligation to treat the public indiscriminately. Is the company doing it? Does the citizen that has two or three lights in his home receive the same rate that the large consumers of electric light in the business district receive? Does the small merchant receive the same rate for light that his large competitor receives? It is needless to answer that he does not. The obligation that rested upon the railroads to charge Mr. Rockefeller the same rate without any rebates that it charged his less pretentious competitor rests upon the Seattle Electric Company to furnish light to the humble citizen in the home, to the small merchant on the side street, at the same rate that it does the large consumers. The Republican urges everybody to take a firm stand and immediately prevent "tainted" money from being hourly created in the city of Seattle. Not long ago we had the ridiculous spectacle of our public utility companies bidding for what they would light the union depot. Companies that use the public streets belonging to the citizens of Seattle for the operation of their business openly and defiantly telling the people they are going to give a certain rate to a great railroad company different from one given to the humble citizen in the home! The same lethargy in public conscience twenty years ago permitted Rockefeller to acquire his "tainted" money. The lethargy on the part of the people to permit such discrimination should be cast aside and the people should rise in their might and stamp out forever such discrimination.

A one cent street car fare night and morning for all distances to laboring men, clerks, mechanics and working men generally, a saving to each of at least $24.00 per year. 2. Cheaper street car fares generally, which will be a saving to each working man's family of an additional sum of $24.00 per year, making a net saving at each working man and his family of not less than $50.00 each year. 3. Instead of $72.00 per year for office phones, it will be $24.00 and less, a saving on each office telephone of at least $48.00 per year. 4. House telephones now $36.00 per year, will be furnished for $12.00, a saving of $24.00 on each house telephone; four party line telephones, now $18.00 per year, will be $9.00 per year. The telephone is now a necessity instead of a luxury, and by municipal ownership, it will be put within the reach of the poor man and his family. Under the statute, the proposed Moore-Gillman franchise lines can be built by the city. Money can be borrowed on the lines at a low rate of interest., payable out of the incomes of the lines. $1,500,000 or $2,000,-000 of profits each year will be saved to the people. In the borrowing of the money, the city will not be limited to 30, 40 or 50 years, but can make any terms it desires for a low rate of interest. In every one of the 142 tramway lines in the United Kingdom, there have been low fares and a profit of $1.00 per capita for the city. and all are a success. The Post-Intelligencer of July 17, 1905, editorially says: "Graft is generally the essence of municipal politics. The machine and the machine's puppets who are placed in office must graft; they must stand for graft, and they must approve of graft." We take the above as being absolutely true, for if it were not true, the Post-Intelligencer would not publish it; consequently, it is the duty of the people of Seattle to rise up in their might and power, favor the direct primary and municipal ownership, and stamp out graft and corruption. Let no man be nominated for any city office unless he is above suspicion. The people are all powerful and can cleanse the city of corruption and graft. Now is the time for the people to act. Let them all turn out to the meeting Saturday night. September 30, 1905. In Glasgow, Scotland, a private corporation has 7,000 telephone subscribers at $6.00 per year.

President Palma, the liberal candidate for president of Cuba, was so liberally voted for that he will continue Cuba’s president. There seems to be no doubt of the fact that the fine Italian hand of your Unele Sam held the high cards which turned things Palma’s way. In five drops of common drinking water there is a swimming pool for over a thou- sand bugs, says a scientific man. If science marches as boldly forward in the future as it has in the recent past human beings will be able to stomach but little food and drink with great reluctance. Down in Arkansas the other day a mob lynched the wrong Negro. Heathens and barbarians always do things like this, and they have no remorse for having lynched an innocent man. It took the blood of a “‘nig- ger’’ to expiate an alleged crime, and the blood of an innocent one served the pur- pose of the heathens just as well as that of a guilty one. There are now two words in America which are being pushed out of the ranks of the ordinary. and placed at the head of the ‘American vocabulary, they are: strenuous and athletic. The former seems to have be- come one of the requisites of a successful ‘American life and the latter is necessary mainly because it makes the strenuous pos- sible and incidentally because Americans are realizing that the muscular system must keep pace with the mental ‘system to permit of constant and harmonious concentration. One of the most dangerous things about vice is that, seen too often it ceases to ap- pall. Recently a newspaper man wrote with what he supposed was great wit about a man who died from shortness of feet. He explained the same by saying that the man was lynched that his feet could not touch the ground, hence he was killed. If the American people will take the law into their own hands and murder men, more’s the pity, but all true Americans should feel a sense of deepest shame and not a sense of mirth when these lynchings are spoken of. ‘THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The question is: shall there or shall there not be another suffrage state next year. Ore- gon is the state in question and the suffrage advocates among the women feel confident that the victory. is theirs since both political parties are said to favor them. If such is their wish, so be it, but we hope the ballot will not bring to the weaker sex of Oregon as many sleepless nights and days of worry as it does to the average male politician. The ladies must bear in mind, too, that pol- ities makes strange bed-fellows, figuratively speaking, of course. The styles in ladies’ wear lean towards hand finished garments, trimmings and ac- cessories. That they are pretty cannot be denied, but they are made at a very high price. Most women, who do any fancy work at all, overdo. The danger of forcing the eyes is certain, when ‘‘just this little bit is to be finished.’’ Other things which would benefit more people and, in the long run, return to the maker as bread cast upon the waters are neglected and the eye sight is impaired. It doesn’t seem worth while be- ing pretty, smart or swell, if such’s the price. Hall Caine, the English novelist, accom- panied by his two sons, arrived in America last week and since that time has accepted an invitation from President Roosevelt to spend a day or two at Sagamore Hill. Pres- ident Roosevelt has been a great blessing to the world in general and to the American people in particular. One of the great things he has endeavored to impress upon the minds of the Americans is that worth makes the man, and in his eagerness to show the same he has enhanced the reward for earnest effort, stimulated the incentive to achieve and meanwhile greatly broadened the pub- lie’s mental horizon. The Japanese and the Russians have fought their fight, they have borne their hardships and doubtless many have been the times when they were so weary that life seemed scarce worth living, but it is all over now, so far as they are concerned. We, however, have just shouldered the results of the war bur- den in the form of the Japanese books we are to read; Japanese songs we are to sing, Japanese customs we are to imitate or adopt, Japanese musical shows we are to witness. We have just got to pay the price. If we cannot pronounce the Japanese names every time we pick up a newspaper for years to come we will have to speel them or skip them and read right on. To what a man’s mind runneth there is no telling. Lately there was a man who traveled quite a ways to Portland and back in an ox cart because perhaps he liked the old pioneer feeling. Then one Louis Avenel, a Montreal newspaper man, passed through Seattle on a seven years’ tramp around the world because he wished to secure informa- tion for a book. In Seattle, we are told, a man who had worked like a slave for years until he had paid for a lovely house and furnished it up in elegant style, erawled up- on his kitchen table and went to sleep with his head pillowed upon an ironing blanket FRIDAY, SEPT. 29, 1905. because there is no-accounting for the freaks of the mind of man. Rockefeller’s townsmen assembled by the scores one day this week to visit the home of the Standard Oil king and inform him that, they had utmost confidence in him as a man and a citizen. So has the world in general, but it is the confidence that, Rocke- feller always gets his. Its a pretty difficult task for a hundred or more persons to as- semble at the home of a man who has pur- sued the course that Rockefeller has to give him a ‘‘character’’ and a an honorable stand- ing among his fellow men in one night. It takes one a lifetime to build up a character, and when you build one in a night it savors altogether too much of the manner and meth- od Rockefeller has made his millions, while good men slept. Some, among the advanced thinkers in England, Germany and ,America, are very much disturbed over what they call feminiza- tion of the boys in institutions where women are employed as instructors. Judging from the actions of some of the grown up boys commonly known as men, there is not much danger of too much influence of the apron string type. Where there are some male in- structors to look to the military instancts and things along that line, the influence which women teachers throw over their pu- pils is nothing but desirable. The natural boyish tendencies will manifest themselves all in good time women teachers notwith- standing. The Union, since President Roosevelt’s ad- ministration began, has to a great extent wiped out sectional differences. It was a great thing when the flags of the Southern states were returned. No one can say that it was not burying the hatchet and burying it deeply, but when Publisher Doub wishes to have the youths of this country study a history such as he has written, too much is asked. True, the Southern soldier believed he was right and fought gallantly, yet it is not what we believe, but what we do in this world that counts. To have fought gal- lantly in the wrong cause does not merit having the South’s attitude in the late Civil war impressed upon the minds of young America for all time to come in the light which Mr. Doub seeks to throw upon it. Soon Seattle will be voting, whether the school board shall or shall not expend $500,- 000 for the purpose of erecting additional school buildings, and for that election not to exceed 500 persons have as yet regis- tered, and Saturday is the last day for do- ing the act: According to the P.-L, over 40,000 persons in Seattle are entitled to vote at this approaching election, and yet not one in one hundred will do so. ‘The publie seems totally indifferent as to the management and expenditure of its funds, and this accounts for the United States being the hot-bed of publie grafting, a thing uncommon to most all other civilized nations. Register and vote some way on all public questions. If but 200 votes are east for these bonds the election should be declared illegal, for it will not be an expression of the people. HUMAN ODDITIES. Doctor Dawson, the London preacher, who is holding a series of meetings in Seattle, says, "Years do not mean age." As long as a man has energy to keep up his interest in something he will not grow old. If the ladies, who seem to possess an inborn hatred for advancing years, could only be made to believe this they would become deeply interested at once. But the good thing about it is that it would call forth no small amount of energy from each one to ascertain what the other was really interested in. Baltimore has rather an odd character in a man who is a rat hunter. This individual goes to the houses of his patrons, seeks rat holes and thrusts therein a small air rifle with which he shoots his prey, and with a long hooked wire he pulls his victim out. Now and then he strikes a nest of baby rats and out comes "babies, cradle and all." His is rather a strange calling, but answers better than the old way of poisoning them in the walls. The man is said to have applied himself to his business until he is able to locate rat holes and easily detect them scratching therein. Fred Riff and Arthur Nutts, two harvest hands en route to their homes in California, reached Spokane and decided to visit a saloon and thereby hangs a tale. There were nine other men in the saloon when the two harvest heroes arrived, making eleven in all for two hold-up men, who came soon afterwards, to work upon. Riff and Nutts were relieved of $135, every cent they had. Next morning they returned to the harvest fields instead of continuing their trip to California. They had that bad feeling "next morning" alright, and it was from visiting the saloon, too, but more than drink caused it that time. Eva Moore, who is the 16 year old daughter of the late Dr. Frederick J. Moore of Roxbury, formerly a United States army surgeon, has created quite a stir in Boston by deciding to marry a well to do Mongolian. Lee San, is the Chinaman in question and is well appearing, wears American clothes and is said to have a tea store besides his laundry. The "engaged" couple went to Chelsea and were told that they could not obtain a marriage license there without they lived in that city. "Love will find a way" we are told, but in this case love will have to get his wits working and that, too, very fast, or there will be a shortage in clean linen if the laundry man is not soon relieved from the uncertain state in the affairs of his heart. If Doctor Dawson eres not, we are all more or less living under a delusion or rather we are full of illusions. "We allow ourselves to believe what we want to believe," says the Doctor. He further tells us that we are not as philanthropic as we think we are and most likely we would not do half the good we believe we would if we THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN were really financially able to do so. Men's natures change with the coming of riches." says Dr. Dawson. And we must admit of some striking cases of sudden wealth and swollen heads. However, the illusion as to the good we would do is a happy one in as much as it gives us a good opinion of ourselves, and, in a way, keeps us on excellent terms with ourselves and we are thereby more magnanimous to others. A New York doctor accompanied a wealthy American to Italy. The patient died and in seeking to avoid the trouble and formalities of carrying the body to the United States in a coffin he had the body cremated, which has raised a curious legal point. He had the corpse cremated, the ashes were placed in a small urn, which was packed and shipped as ordinary freight, on which he paid the usual tariff according to weight. When the doctor landed in America, however, his secret was discovered and the price for carrying a dead body in a coffin was demanded. That meant $150 more than he had paid for the transportation for the urn. This he refused to pay. The case must be settled at Paris since it was a French port from which the urn was shipped. It is thought that the company will lose the case. At the world's fair at Chicago the dead letter officials placed many articles which had gone astray and finally landed beneath their walls on exhibition which was a revelation to many. Such odds and ends as there were: things that the average person would least expect to see passing through the mails. Since that time the souvenir habit has struck the American people and great are the evils thereof. The mail men now often pause and wonder, if Uncle Sammy really is aware of what is going on in his own family. The very latest fad among the souvenir collectors is the souvenir postal cards. Every town of any size has them and the traveling citizens are "card mad" because they find it a good way to write their home neighbors without writing and the resident citizens are card mad because they wish to make card albums and of course must have a beautiful collection. The officials of the Essex county hospital for the insane had two patients, Iglar and Ahlert in the same ward. Iglar had been ill for some time and his family had been notified to expect his demise daily. Ahlert died suddenly and a new attendant announced that Iglar was dead. The body was sent to Newark to Iglar's family. The two men were of a size and resembled each other, yet Iglar's family remarked that illness and death had wrought some changes in his features. The body was embalmed and all arrangements made for its interment. Iglar's daughter happened to remark in the presence of the undertaker how her father had lost a finger years ago, whereupon they discovered that they had the wrong body. There is no money which can pay for the sufferings of bereavement which this family underwent, but the institution should have been heavily fined just the same. The University of Washington has made arrangements for its annual course of high class lecturers, musicians and entertainers. This year the management has made an effort to place the course above the usual standard. If some of the Eastern people, who are always bemoaning the fact that, "the West is not like it is back East," will attend some of these lectures they will find that, one of the very things they needed most is right here in their midst—a chance to hear some of the known world-wide lecturers. Perchance some might even realize that the East is some respects is not like it is "way out West" and cease their churlish complaining. --- Gentlemen Know Us Our Tailoring on the Man Will Do the Rest B.M.
