"Money is scarce everywhere" reads a head line. Few there are who need to read the papers to find that out. "Black diamonds are popular" says a beauty paper. That's hard on those who are color prejudiced. Prof. Behring, the discoverer of anti-diphtheria serum, announces that he has found a cure for tuberculosis. Good. But why don't some of these tuberculosical air-ships fly? All carniverous animals lap up water with the tongue. Herbivorous animals, as the horse and ox, suck it up, but from the way some men hastily take their midday coffee it is a matter of impossibility to classify the animal by the attending sounds. We are taught that cleanliness is akin to godliness. The prisoner Charles Macauley, in the city jail who developed a mania for saying his prayers in a bath tub filled with water seemed determined to reach the godly state—if one route failed by the other. It is sad that so famous a novelist as Bret Harte, the American author of tales and poems of the wild Western continent, died without means to make any provision for a daughter who survived him. Miss Bret Harte is now in London, wholly dependent upon the Bret Harte assistance fund which has been organized for her benefit. According to report from Shanghai Nieh Chuhwer, governor of Chekiang, has tendered his resignation owing to his mother's being too old and wishing to attend her. He thereby gave the world a lesson in filial love. Modern Americanism is fast leaning towards the belief that the "old folks" are better off alone and they are in one way or the another left very much alone. The South is becoming weary of the great masses of foreigners "whom," they say, "it will be impossible to assimilate with our institutions." That's just a beginning of what those foreigners will do to Southern institutions when they shall have grown to greater numbers. A white elephant looms in the background and the day is not far distant when the South will earnestly desire to swap it off for a "black elephant." ```markdown ``` SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1905 Seri Indians dig a hole in the sand about two feet deep, tie an immense knot in the end of the halter rope, which is put in the bottom of the hole. It is refilled, then stmped upon till the ground becomes solid and the horse is tied to a hole. They have a different way in Seattle. Instead of tying horses to holes the men get in themselves. So general is this custom that at times one can scarcely count on the fingers of both hands his acquaintances who are actually "in the hole." During the year ended June 30 there were 1,085,837 pieces of misdirected mail handled in the local postoffice in Cincinnati, Ohio. Of this vast amount, which, if piled up, would form a most imposing monument to carelessness, the clerks corrected and forwarded 451,236 pieces, returned 240,145 to the senders for better direction, sent 19,332 to the dead letter office, held 54,855 for additional postage, and destroyed 356,269 pieces of third and fourth class matter. This was an average of 2,975 misdirected pieces received daily. The public school pupils in Stockholm, every three or four weeks, take a progressive scrub to benefit their health and the atmosphere of the class room. Three days of the week are assigned to the boys and three to the girls, ten to twenty bathing at once. At times, when the conductors on the Seattle street cars actually push passengers into the cars, until they feel like a box of sardines looks, many are forced to wish not that they were in Stockholm, but about something in keeping with the public school system there. HUMAN ODDITIES Recently a burglar laughed at and openly mocked a Seattle woman who pretended to be urging her husband to shoot through a locked door, when in reality her husband was not in the house. Last week a burglar entered the bed chamber of one Mrs. Ella Hall of Omaha, Neb., and she immediately shot him. When it comes to the ladies you can't "always sometimes tell." London has had a novel defense to a charge of wife desertion. William Abraham's wife's great zeal to save forced him to leave home. In six years she managed to save $1,440 from her husband's salary of $16 a week. On this side the kick comes from a different cause. Women whose husbands learn $1,440 a year manage to save $16 a year. The question arises, is man an animal unable to reach the plane of satisfaction or do women run to extremes? When a man, arrested in Seattle, was found to have two razors hung between his shoulder blades by a string tied around his neck the limit seems to have been reached, but one Herr Isaac Halten has stepped to UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 BLICAN PRICE FIVE CENTS the head of the class. He had a cork leg and was arrested on the Russian frontier. His leg, on being unscrewed, disclosed two new revolvers, together with boxes of cartridges, beside large quantities of cigars and cigarettes. The limb was confiscated. H. Teas, an able seaman on the cruiser Philadelphia, fell sixty feet from the cross tree of the flag staff at the Puget Sound Navy Yard, Bremerton, Wash., and still lives. The man suffered a fracture of both legs. He lit squarely on his feet, but the tremendous drop snapped both bones in each limb and the seaman fell to the earth in a heap. Teas was selected for this work on account of his clear head when at great heights. His familiarity with this form of danger most likely caused a bit of carelessness which resulted in his dangerous fall. Several cases wherein women have for years masqueraded as men have recently come to light. If the fad continues there may be doubt as to who is who. However, one Rev. F. M. Sutton of Terrie, Ga., has proved that he is no female in disguise. While delivering a sermon a mouse ran up one leg of his trousers. Without a second's pause in his sermon he reached his left hand down to the seat of trouble and quickly grasped the intruder. With a firm clutch he squeezed it to death. His congregation was none the wiser. No woman, regardless of how long she had been masquerading as a man, could have stood that test. Joseph Cole, the world's famous dwarf, who was only two feet seven inches, died recently in a workhouse in London. For years this dwarf traveled with P. T. Barnum and was exhibited all over the world. His mind was weak when he entered the institution and he could give no account of his money. When it is taken into consideration how much money the little man, whose lot it was to pass through life the size of an infant, earned, great is the pity that among those of larger growth and broader possibilities not one would shield him from the pitfalls among life's pecuniary thousands. When Ferdinand Arndt held his mother-in-law, Mrs. Johanna Gossin, in his aching arms for twenty hours he proved himself to be the exceptional son-in-law. Mrs. Gossin had been bitten by a mad dog and the race with death from Fox, Wisconsin, to Chicago, where stands the Pasteur Institute, followed. Arndt with the sick woman reached Chicago, but she died before entering the institute. The average man's profesed great love for "wifey dear" which should suffice when all else fails falls far from endearing mother-in-law enough to permit of her spending over two nights in son-in-law's house, that is with his heartfelt consent. --- The Passing Throng There was a most notable gathering of the state's citizens at Olympia last Tuesday and they were there to pay respect to the memory of the late Thomas M. Reed, whose remains were laid to rest on order, yet many state dignitaries were also there, for it will be remembered he was the first state auditor of Washington. Notwithstanding this age of "get rich quick" it was exceedingly refreshing to listen to the visitors as they discussed him as a brother and a citizen to hear from all of them that he was one of God's noblemen, who had never knowingly wronged a fellow man. With the lives of such men to pattern after there is still something except barrels of money the rising generations can point with pride to the lives of those gone before. The young men of this country need no greater ambition in life than to try to be like Thomas M. Reed. Among those attending the funeral of the late Thomas M. Reed was Judge A. W. Frater of Seattle, who had learned to love him like a father from long lodge association. Judge Frater, like all who which, I subsequently learned, was owned by a Quaker. I was given a warm welcome and when I had eaten my supper, the Quaker questioned me of my parents. When he learned who my father was the two had been old acquaintances many years before. For a minute he sat in perfect silence, then he said, "Boy, thy father was an honest man." Then Mr. Frater himself sat for a minute in perfect silence, looked away, and the great rugged minded man was a child again. A tear stole down his cheek, he choked up and in his mind's eye his "ideal man" was patting him on the head with, "be good, my son," which to him meant volumes. Finally he said, "I hope my boy will hear the same report of me." With no thought of the incident of the Quaker and his father, he said in substance as much of Thomas M. Reed—"he was an honest, upright man." that day. From all sections of the state they came in delegations and in bodies for the purpose of seeing for the last time the man who was held in such high esteem by every man, woman and child that knew him, and among the Masonic fraternity, was more generally loved than any member of the order in the entire Northwest. "For fortythree years he served as grand secretary of the A. F. & A. M. of the state and such general satisfaction did he give that he seemed to have not made an enemy during all that time. From point of service in one office he held the record of the world. While the most of those present at the funeral were members of the Masonic or- order, yet many state dignitaries membered he was the first state standing this age of "get rich qu to listen to the visitors as they di zen to hear from all of them th who had never knowingly wrong of such men to pattern after the of money the rising generations of those gone before.

Frater of Seattle a father from long lodge associ knew him, was overheard to remark, "he was the ideal citizen and it does my heart good to think of him in his ripe old age making mankind happier for his having been one of them." Judge Frater is a man of strong convictions and weighs carefully every word he says. He is also a man that, the greed of gold counts as naught to him in comparison with honor, uprightness and integrity. That he is a son of his father on this point and came by it honestly may be seen from an incident that he himself once related to the writer. In telling something of his early life he said: "Once when a young lad I was traveling and night forced me to ask shelter at a farm house, which, I subsequently learned, wa a warm welcome and when I had tioned me of my parents. When two had been old acquaintances ute he sat in perfect silence, then honest man." Then Mr. Frater silence, looked away, and the gre again.

Providing every case goes off like clock work, it will take until De- cember 5th to clear the docket. From then until January the members of the court will be engaged in writing opinions, when the winter term will begin. The Supreme Court of this state, notwithstanding it has seven members, is kept busy listening to attorneys discuss law point and giving opinions. "It is true," said a lawyer, "that there is more going to the Supreme Court in this state than in Eastern states, because our laws are new and have never been tested before the highest legal tribunal. There will be no let up until that is done and I would not be surprised if the Supreme Court will not have to be increased to ten before any real let up is apparent bad," said another attorney, "that the members of our are not appointed for life or during good behavior. ever, no hopes for that, at least in the near future should be elected a different year from other state off to remove the selection of the members as far from place.

However, Supreme Court of this state is not seriously hamping influence and its opinions are for the most part legal. "Do I know Bill Gay? Well, I guess.

"It's too bad," said another attorney, "that the members of our Supreme Court are not appointed for life or during good behavior. There are, however, no hopes for that, at least in the near future, but the judges should be elected a different year from other state officials and thereby remove the selection of the members as far from politics as possible. In order for a judge to render a fair and impartial decision he should not be handicapped with politimal pulls. However, I believe the Supreme Court of this state is not seriously hampered by political influence and its opinions are for the most part legally sound." "Do I know Bill Gay? Well, I guess. Know him as well as I know myself," came from a man from Missouri one day this week. "Mr. Gay and I lived in the same town in Missouri, where he was the leading business man of the county. He owned and operated the best and biggest weekly paper in the county, had a large law practice, conducted a big loan office and was a heavy stockholder in the local bank. In short, he was the real thing. I understand he lives here and has done well. Speaking about his loan office. I remember of an amusing incident in that connection. His brother. Monty. went out to paint some signs all over the county and whether designedly or otherwise he misspelled the word loan and his signs all read, "Gay Lones Money." Some paint brush artist saw it and thought he would make a joke of it and so he contorted the "n" into a "v" and the sign read, Gay Loves Money. Others made the same change and all the signs soon read that way. It was a hit and it brought him more business than he could do." When told that Gay was also quite prominent in this state, he having for four years been United States district attorney and that he was still one of Seattle's leading attorneys, he started off at quick step to find the Alaska block to see his old friend and talk Missouri language to him. There seems to be a fascination about newspaperdom, which those who once get thoroughly wrapped up in can never throw off. Like the man or woman who until their dying day thinks the days they spent in college the happiest those who once get thoroughly w Like the man or woman who unt they spent in college the happiest of their life, even though they after leaving school amass a fortune and live to enjoy it in a ripe old age, so also does the business or professional man always recount with pride and pleasure his repotorial scoops as well as his Sunday stories woven from some "old timers'" exaggerated reminiscenses of pioneer days. One day this week Major A. N. Brown, private secretary to Gov. Mead of this state, a fifteen years ago reporter on Seattle papers, while talking of bygone days, grew reminiscent and talked about the boys who reported when he was a "cub" learning the business. "Those fellows did some of the cleverest work I have ever read. Their Sunday stories were gems and were quoted in most of the leading magazine and even in England. Many of those reporters positions on Eastern papers that pay them almost and were quoted in most of the leading magazines of this country and even in England.

Praying at the county jail seems to be a thing of the past. Some little good may have been accomplished by the Sunday wor- shipers at the county jail, but it is very questionable, and under the garb of a preacher ‘‘pals’’ of Hildebrandt had an op- portunity of smuggling all manner of dan- gerous weapons into him, and it is just pos- sible that Hildebrandt got the revolver he used with such telling effect on the county physician by just such a ruse. Whether he did or did not it looks suspicious, and Sher- iff Smith is perfectly justifiable in adopting the Dracon system—prisoners are to see no one only in the presence of one of his depu- ties.

One Mrs. MeDonald of Fernie, B. C., predicted that the next fire in Fernie would be near her home, cleaiming that her daughter had seen it in a dream. Soon afterwards her house burned and when she went to cleaim the insurance money she was arrested for ar- son. Incriminating evidence against the woman has since been found. As was predicted in these columns some weeks ago the paving on Renton Hill is dead up against the winter rains, and unless the unexpected in the shape of good weather happens Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth ‘FRIDAY, OCT. 13; 1905. and Sixteenth’ for the most part ‘will be im- passible until next summed, when the. rainy season will be over. Those streets could have all been completed had the work been prose- euted with any degree of diligence, but the contractors were too greedy—they were reaching out for other city jobs and con- tracting for similar work in other cities, to” the neglect of the Renton Hill contract. Was there ever a better reason for the city doing its paving work? If it should do so the streets would not be torn up both winter and summer, the work would be better done, and, best of all, it would cost the taxpayers at least 30 per cent less than under even the independent contract price. a eee FRIDAY, OCT. 13, 1905. LOCAL SNAPSHOTS * Miss Annie H. Murray, secretary of the Seattle Charity Organization, says “the city jail is a disgrace.” That's an old, old’ chestnut, Miss Ann, and so old that even the city officials have heard it. A detention house for contagious diseases is asked for by the health board. The idea seems to be a good one and there is no reason why the request should not be granted if the city has the funds to erect the build- ing. Whether Queen Anne Hill or Green Lake should get the first high school out of the bonds recently voted by the citizens of school district No. 1 is the burning question which the school board is wrestling with. Why not begin them both at once if not soon- er, since the bonds for the two have been authorized? If. the noise of the city is discon- tinued then there will be no city left. Most~of us who were reared in the country remember our first visit to a town and how we informed the “kids” who had never been to town that “we could. mot see the .fown...for, the houses.” The houses made the town and so also does the noise make the city. The mishap to Mr. Cyrus Walker at Pt. Gamble was regretted by his army of friends in Seattle. Mr. Walker, though seventy odd years of age, was as active about his great mill plants as a man twenty years younger! While- three of his ribs were broken and he was otherwise injured, yet Dr, Eagle- son, his physician, believes he will pull through in fairly good shape. Seattle business men have decided that Seattle will be in no condition to entertain the next Christian Endeavor national convention. The city has neither hotel nor hall accommodations for 25,000 visitors. “Truth is stranger than fiction,” wrote a great mind and here it is. Who ever thought a Se- attle business man would have ad- mitted as much, and yet it’s all true. Honest confession is good for the soul. It is enough to make an Indian statue grin from ear to ear when the officers of the Diamond Ice Company threaten to have the drivers of the company arrested for giving the cus- tomers short weight. Talk about play- ing to the galleries, but this just caps the climax, for the profits of that company has been largely dependent on customers’ shorts, so it is re- ported. MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP. The people are mistaken who think that if the city should build street car lines on the proposed lines of Moore & Gidman, that the property owners of the city. would be bound» for the payment of the money borrowed. The’ money could be borrowed upon the same plan as for the building of the Cedar River Water System and the Cedar River Electric Light Plant, and the bonds would be issued payable out of the income of the system. They would not be a lieh upon the property THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN generally, and would not increase the sek tebe: taxes of the citizens. If the people take hold of the mat- N ter at once and elect a council and r officers of the city who will submit a ) the matter to a vote of the people, and the people carry the election, the i system can be built within the next two years, and the profits made will belong to the city. £ F The 142 tramway lines in the United Kingdom are being operated success- fully, as shown by the reports. The working man’s train night and morn- ing, with a one cent fare is a great saving to the laboring man, and the three cent fare and less generally is a great saving to the people in those countries. If Seattle acts upon the matter at once, she can be the first large city in the United States to own her own water works, electrical plant and street car system. West Seattle is already advantage- ously operating a street car system and doing so to a financial advantage to the municipality and that too de- spite the fact Seattle is declaring the community is not ripe for the theory of municipal ownership being put into operation, is now contemplating call- ing a special election to vote bonds to erect a municipal lighting plant. With as much cheap light as is to be had from the great lighting companies centered in Seattle it’s a wonder the voters of West Seattle would be so anxious to throw away their money so foolishly as in the erection of a lighting plant. The sum and _ sub+ stance of it all is the city authorities of that, little city are not under the influence “of powerful @orporations, which sway men’s minds not by ar- gument, but by long green; hence this new move. If any community ‘desires to see municipal ownership in full op- eration it need not go to Glasgow or any other European city for it, but take the ferry and go over to West Seattle and there it will be seen to as good an advantage as it can be seen in some far away city. After permitting the water system of the town to be under the control of a private corporation for years and years and during all of that time be- ing without adequate water to carry on the affairs of the city, the city of Olympia has about decided to vote bonds for the installing of a munici- pal water plant. Nothing would be better and the wonder is the city dads had not seen that many months ago. In Olympia, as in most of the cities of this country, the company controlling the water system of the town has always been able to control the elections and men favorable to their business have been elected to office.

The for- mer regulates and refines the moral feelings, and the latter supplies a nev- er-failing source of rational enjoyment. Their influences are also intimately combined, for in appreciating truth, we are taught to discover beauty. An opportunity for theatre-goers to sur- feit their love of the good, the true and the noble, will be offered at the Grand next Sunday evening when that charming pastoral play, “York State Folks” will be presented to Seattle. “York State Folks” has grown to be the greatest success in its line. Critics everywhere it has been offer- ed have been enthusiastic in its praises. The theatres have been too small to hold the people, and the “Standing room only” sign probably has been used more frequently by “York State Folks” than by any other attraction on the road. As a play it is unrivaled in the peculiar field it occupies. There are many rural plays, but “York State Folks” is unexcelled; it is a play pure and simple. It is unlike any other ever seen, in that it possesses not that which has ever been supposed to be a prime factor of any and all plays—a villian. Neith- er is there the heretofore inevitable wronged maiden. There are no lost wills, mortgages or shooting affairs. It is a’welcome departure from the old beaten path of all things dramatic. If you can get your husband to go with you, take him to the Third Ave- nue Theatre this week; don’t fail to do this. Never mind why, but take him. If you are not married and have a sweetheart, coax him to take you; he will learn several things that will come useful in after years. Such plays as “Dora Thorn” are an object lesson as well as the story was a graphic pen-picture of life, and while they serve “to beguile away the time and amuse us, they leave a lasting impression and we learn something that is very useful to us if we have CPEY. pat HAS Pi Zee ey Ni av: T Wt Wa 2 SD | ) : a JA a remnant of decency left within our hearts. The last performance of “Dora Thorn” takes place Saturday night; don’t miss it, The Third Avenue Theatre will have another new play next week. It is not teh dramatization of a novel, nor is it what the title would suggest, an unclean problem play; it is rather a life picture of men and women as they live today. $t teaches a salu- tary lesson and how to avoid moths and pitfalls of modern society.

O. and office address: 9-10 Starr-Boyd Block, Seattle, County of King, Washington. Oct. 13. Nov. 24. Attorneys John C. Murphy and George B. Cole, both of this city, got a little touch of high life in the daily papers this week, which they did not relish a little bit. After the wind and flurry had all blown over it seems neither had done any wrong, not only had they done no wrong, but simply done as any other attorney under similar circumstances would have done. While lawyers may be willing o take all from their clients they can talk the clients into giving them, yet they do not often openly rob their clients and money entrusted into their keeping as attorneys is usually quite safe. A writer in a magazine not many weeks ago was convinced in his mind that lawyers for the most part were scrupulously honest and he believed he voiced the sentiment of a great majority of the citizens in so saying and in substantiation to his allegation he cited the fact that they had the keeping of more of the people's goods and valuables than even bankers. AFRO-AMERICANISM. The Western Negro Press Association, which met at Muskogee, I. T., pased a resolution authorizing a committee to memorialize Congress to not admit Oklahoma and the Indian Territory as states unless an article be placed in their constitution making it impossible for them to ever pass any jig crow laws. "Negroes are against themselves," bemoans a negro editor. Oh, no more so than any other weaker race or class with the exception of the Jews. Let the Negro do things that will attract the attention of all people and races and then perhaps the Negro himself will be favorably disposed toward the Negro. One Negro honestly criticising the public acts of another should not be objected to, but one Negro of some prominence abusing and vilifying another Negro of equal prominence should be deplored. The Negro opponents of Booker T. Washington do not stop at criticising his public acts and educational motives, but they abuse and vilify him in newspapers and periodicals most shamefully, and among those who take the lead in such is the Washington Bee. George Putnam Riley, one of the most prominent Negroes of the state, who died in Tacoma last Sunday, was well known in Issaquah through his mining operations in this vicinity. Mr. Riley then president of the Tacoma Mining and Smelting Co., visited this town on several occasions for the purpose of inspecting the Morning Star propect, known as the Wise claim. Readers of this paper will remember that on one of these visits Mr. Riley announced that the assay of the Wise claim had shown as high as $60 in gold and that his company had decided to construct a smelter at the mine for the purpose of reducing the ore. The result of the announcement was a stampede for claims and soon the hills in the vicinity were covered with location stakes. The smelter did not materialize and practically all of the claims with the exception of Wise claim were soon abandoned. Wise is still holding down his claim and claims to have good prospects in sight. —Issaquah Independent. LEAGUED WITH VARDAMAN TO DESTROY SUFFRAGE RIGHTS. Governor James K. Vardaman, of Mississippi, has recently announced himself as a candidate to be a Senator in the Congress. The plank upon THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN and George B. Cole, both of this city, the daily papers this week, which after the wind and flurry had all seems neither had done any wrong, they done no wrong, but simply doneorney under similar circumstances. While lawyers may be willing their clients they can talk the clients yet they do not often openly rob money entrusted into their keeping usually quite safe. A writer in a is convinced in his mind that law-ulously honest and he believed he majority of the citizens in so saying on he cited the fact that they had's goods and valuables than even which he proposes to make his canvass is very direct and simple. It is bodily a plea for Mississippi to comply with the United States Constitution and reduce its representation in the lower house of Congress and thereby secure the right to disfranchise all Afro-Americans regardless of qualifications. Of course, Mississippi could do this, and any other state for that matter, and still retain the power that it possesses in the United States Senate, and a law could be passed by the state preventing any Afro-American from voting, no matter how much intelligence or property he might possess. This, in short, is the logical result of advocating cutting down Southern representation. It will, therefore, be seen that those Afro-Americans who advocate cutting down Southern representation are in thorough accord with Vardaman and his kind. There was a public meeting in Boston recently for the purpose of urging along the feeble sentiment for the reduction of Southern representation in Congress. Mr. A. B. Humphreys of New York made a speech in which he claimed to be the author of the reduction plank in the Republican platform. He said that there were a full hundred Negroes from the South at the Chicago convention who favored his reduction proposition. We do not doubt it. But the fact counts for nothing. It is an easy matter to find a hundred Afro-Americans in Boston, or the South, who would agree to any proposition affecting the vitality of their political rights, simply because they do not know what the vitality of their political rights is. When Congress votes to justify the right of a state to disfranchise a part of its citizenship, with only the loss of proportionate representation in Congress, we shall be in a fearful pickle.—N. Y. Age. Rev. Donohoo of the A. M. E. church of this city is expecting his better half in the very near future. Mr. Henry is industriously practicing the young folk of the Methodist church for the Thanksgiving day exercise, which will be held in the church that evening. Mr. John H. Ryan was in the city one day this week and secured a contract for considerable job work. Mr. Ryan is now the proud possessor of a splendid job printing plant. . PERSONAL.
