If you have Christmas moneys for presents, prepare to shed them. Graft, grafter, grafters. How is that for the superior race? Seattle's assay office is now devoid of a Wing. In other words it's Wingless. Louis James, the actor, may practice what he preaches, but we have our suspicions. You can register Saturday only to vote for or against the park bond issue. Do not fail to register. The West is pretty wild and woolly, but it does not hang women as did the state of Massachusetts last Friday. Willie Heart has lost his mayorality contest. If the Tiger is not careful it has taught Hearst how to lick him in his own lair. Let's hope as hard a fate did not await Senator Mitchell at the court of courts as he met in the Federal court last summer. Why is not the memory of Senator Mitchell to be congratulated in that the senate took no cognizance of his death? That the Times office is free from graft every politician in this state can verily testify to. Oh, no, Col. Buster knows nothing of the term. Democratic Congressmen are after John Sharp Williams, not for the next Democratic presidential nomination, but to give him a political trip up Salt Creek. Oregon has had a senatorial Gearin since the death of Senator Mitchell, and as a result that state will be misrepresented in the senate for the next two years. Senator Piles has put his feet under President Roosevelt's dinner table, and yet the world wags on just the same. That's right, Senator, saw wood and say nothing. It does not require a "mock convention" for the Young Men's Republican Club to get its hand in at making tickets, for it seems to have acquired the habit by inheritance. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1905 Alice Roosevelt, who, since her father has been president, has divided public attention with him, is to be married to Congressman Nicholas Longworth. Sic semper tyranis. For years it has been suspected that "graft" lurked about the Star, the Seattle afternoon sensation, and now the Star itself admits it, and there are those in this city who are of the opinion that the half has not been told. "Guilty, your honor," came from J. M. Glasgow, once police judge of Seattle, when he was arraigned for having assaulted C. M. Baxter, a brother attorney. Glasgow had his fun, for he had pounded Baxter "soft," and he had no objection to paying for it. An effort to have church and state legally separated in France failed of passage in the senate of that country the other day. The French people seem to be married to their idols, which should be no concern of foreigners. Republicans and the officials they nominate and elect are influenced entirely too much by the mouthings of the Times. It has ben thoroughly demonstrated that the voters do not believe what the Times says, and never fail to elect its branded "whelps, daufaulters and public looters" to high office, so let it beat itself black and blue in the face, but give it not even a passing consideration. TRIALS OF THE NEGRO. Some months ago, says The Springfield Republican, a young Negro went up to a lunch counter connected with one of the bar rooms in this city and asked to served with some dish. As a matter of fact, this dish was not being served that day, and the waiter said, "We haven't got it." The young man immediately turned on his heel, went over to the bar, laid his head upon it and burst into tears, to the undisguised amazement of the waiter, the bartender and the patrons "That's what they all say," he sobbed, "and it is impossible for me to get anything to eat in a decent place in the city." After a few more sobs he went out, and the incident was closed, with the exception of some slight conversation over it by the ravenous quick lunchers. Springfield is a typical New England city and there is no doubt that so far as personal and political liberty go the colored people are accorded better treatment here than in the average city of its size in the country. An honest attempt is made by a large number of citizens to overlook the difference in hue of the Negro and to treat him with the respect that true democracy and Christian spirit demand. In theory at least there is some belief in the sentiment, "A man's a man for a' that," and the religious conviction in the brotherhood of man taught by Jesus Christ. And yet human nature is always cropping out and in many petty ways LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 PRICE FIVE CENTS the colored resident of this city is constantly reminded that he is not white and that race prejudice is hard to eradicate. The question of eating in public restaurants and lunch rooms is one that must be vexatious, for the Negro is militated against in many different ways. For instance, one of rather unprepossessing appearance, to be sure, went into a quick lunch place recently and asked for some chicken stew. "We haven't any," said the waiter very decidedly, and the Negro turned and hastily went out, taking the hint very quickly. "That's the way to do with those fellows," said the waiter, as he mopped up some coffee spilled on the counter. Another Negro went into another quick lunch recently and ordered a sandwich to be taken out. The sandwich was made up for him, but instead of putting salt upon it, it was springld with gold dust washing powder, in the reasonable belief that he would not patronize the place again in a hurry. Another lunch room has the policy of serving Negroes, but of giving them the rag ends of everything, so that there is no inducement to become a regular patron. The lunch men are, of course, guided in their action, not necessarily by any prejudice of their own, but through business interest, as they feel certain that if it becomes necessary for Negroes to eat in their places the white people will cease to do so, and it is a matter of self-preservation. They throw the blame upon the general public with some reason. The case of hotel accommodations is even more annoying. This fall a state convention of colored Odd Fellows was held in the city and the delegates and local members were much incensed over the inability of the delegates to secure hotel accommodations at some of the better hotels. The delegates in question had engaged rooms in advance, but upon arriving were given rates far in excess of the value of the rooms and they accordingly went away. Some managed to find private houses that would take them in, and finally one of the lesser hotels took a number in. The colored man felt the attitude of the hotel keepers was entirely unjust, as the delegates represented the leading members of thir race throughout the state, and were therefore entitled to some consideration. The Negro troupe that is acting at Poli's this week had some slight difficulty in securing accommodations, but were finally put up in private places. "No attempt was made to secure rooms in any of the regular hotels," said the manager of the troupe, "as experience has shown that this is without success." Traveling colored troupes generally know the accommodations that the different cities on the circuit afford them, and, in cases where they do not, troupes that have visited the city are generally communicated with beforehand. By this means unpleasant episodes are avoided. It remained for the railroad Young Men's Christian Association of Springfield to bar a Negro from taking a bath in its public bath room. A Negro passing through the town desired to bathe, and seeing the advertisement went in and asked for permission NOGIFT LIKETHE CHICKERING PIANO! The Baby Grand—what a gift of gifts!

JOHNSTON Co. “The Jolly Girls,” one of the newest extravaganza companies, is announced as the next attraction at the Seattle all next week. This company is got- ten up on up-to-date lines, and con- sists of vaudeville, extravaganza and burlesque. Two laughable musical extravaganzas are offered, giving the comedians unlimited scope for creat- ing laughs, and affording the pretty girls many opportunities to cavort in pretty and intricate musical numbers. “An Honest Politician,” the title of the first act, deals with the political adventures of one Terence O’Hara, a wealthy Irishman, and shows how his money is handled by an honest politi- cian, who, though honest in purpose, manages to relieve O’Hara of his vast fortune. There are three candidates for alderman in the field, a Socialist, a Democrat and a Mugwump, and the complications into which each gets entwined, is enough to keep an audi- ence in good humor for an indefinite period. The olio which is presented between the first and second acts in- troduces Rosalie in a clever singing and dancing specialty; the Lassard Bros., acrobrats of unusual ability; Melville and Stevens, in high class specialty, rendering operatic and pop- ular musical selections; Mlle. Glorine, in a spectacular and novel electrical act. The closing skit is “Tempest in a Tea House,” and is mounted on an electrical order, showing a Japanese tea house, illuminated with many electrical effects, AT THIRD AVENUE. “The Missouri Girl” at the Third Avenue Theatre this week is a jolly good comedy. It is just as natural as if it really occurred and you don’t imagine you are witnessing a play. Daisy and Zeke are not much exag- gerated, but they are very funny. Other members of the company are good in their respective parts. There is no straining of situation for climax- es. They come natural and the spe- cialties that are interspersed in the parlor scene are in keeping with the scene and demonstrate the fact that the actors are artists, for without an orchestra accompaniment they win several encorses at every performance. “The Missouri Girl” is the best com- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN edy seen here this season at any price, “THE GIRL FROM SWEDEN.” An attraction, the reputation of which will naturally draw the atten- tion of the theatre-goers, will play an engagement at the Third Avenue Theatre next week, opening with the matinee performance Sunday. The company in question is the su- perb organization at the head of which is Miss Madie De Long, the brilliant Swedish comedienne. The organization is presenting the clever comedy drama, “The Girl From Swe- den,” the author of which is Chas. Newman. The company which has been selected to support Miss De Long in the presentation of Mr. New- man’s comedy contains many well- known players. . During the action of the play high class specialties wtll be introduced, among which are the Falkner Family, the famous hoop rollers and jugglers. The old saying that everything is in a name seems to be true with “The Girl From Sweden,” that will be seen here. Louis James, the eminent actor, who at the age of 63 does not look a day ove: ‘50, was asked the other day how he retained his virility, youth- ful disposition and appearance? His reply was: “Youth and vitality can be retained by the observance of two things— temperance and regularity, and I may also add, keep in the sunlight, noth- ing beautiful or sweet grows or ripens in the darkness. “A void fear in all its varied forms of expression. It is the greatest en- emy of the human race. “Avoid excesses of all kinds; they are injurious. The long life must be a temperate, regular one. “Don’t live to eat, but eat to live, Many of our ills are due to overeat- ing, to eating the wrong things and irregular eating. “Don’t allow yourself to think of your birthday that you are a year older and so much nearer the end. “Never look on the dark side; take sunny views of everything, a sunny thought drives away the shadows. above all, work, for ‘work is the best thing to make us love life,’ and re- member, ‘every man is valued in this world as he shows by his conduct that he wished to be valued.’” Go to a respectable place to borrow money on diamonds, jewelry and watches.

It was feared that some of the railroad men who were under the influence of the association might take offense at so evident an application of the doctrine of the brotherhood of man, and thus much of the good influence exerted upon them would be lost. The Negro was mad clean through, but was unable to get his bath. A strange case of Negro discrimination recently took place here. A couple who dropped off the train to get married proceeded to look up a minister after getting out their marriage license. Consulting the directory they finally found one and going to the address given rang the bell. The clergyman was one of the colored pastors of the city, and the couple turned and fled when they saw him. Industrially, too, the Negro has a hard row to hoe. The mere menial positions he is permitted to fill, but beyond that he is confronted with a stone wall of prejudice or race feeling. This was well shown in an article by Rev. W. N. DeBerry in The Sunday Republican some months ago. Rev. H. B. Turner, chaplain of Hampton institute, speaking at the First church on Thursday evening, spoke of the difficulty in Northern cities of colored men entering trades because of labor organizations, and there is no doubt that the whole spirit of the laboring man and the trades unionist is against the admission of the Negro to the skilled trades. One of the colored ministers of this city a short time ago heard of a small merchant of the city needing a driver for one of his wagons. He called the man up and said that he knew of some one who would fill the position satisfactorily. The merchant asked him a number of questions, and was satisfied, when the minister said, "Of course, you would have no objections because he is colored." "Yes, I would," the man said. "I couldn't have a colored driver, because my customers would not stand for it." An elevator boy in a building in the city which is used by a number of young girls recently lost his position because of too great familiarity with them. He was given a great raking over by his employer, the burden of whose discourse was that being black he should be more than usually circumspect. This caused the youth to sorrowfully remark to the next load of girls that "his heart was white even though his skin was black." Another odd light on the race problem is given by a principal of a local grammar school. The boys, he says, are naturally democratic. (It is a school where there is a large mixture of races.) So far as he can see, the Negro boys are admitted to the general games without restriction. Far otherwise with the girls. The social instinct springs up at a tender age in the seemingly innocent breast of the female of the race. By no means will the small girls play with the little Negresses. It is not a matter of contention at all, but a cold, settled thing. The victims do not even rebel. They recognize the impossibility of breaking into the rgeular social organization of the playyard and keep entirely by themselves. There are nine of them in all; enough to form a little group for play. They conduct their own games, go home together from school and separate in every way from the other children. A case of the drawing of the color line THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN which drew some notice was the refusal of Company K of the militia of this city to elect Sergeant Fisher to the position of second lieutenant because of his color. Members of the company said that he seemed qualified by his experience and understanding to hold the office. These are, of course, a few of the exceptional incidents and have attracted notice probably for that reason. But there is no doubt, and a talk with any of the leading Negroes in the city will substantiate the statement, that the colored people are constantly being reminded of their difference of race, and that it proves a constant irritation to them. POLITICAL POT-PIE Frederick A. Wing has placed his resignation in the hands of the president, to take effect at his pleasure. During the seven years Mr. Wing had charge of the office there was never a breath of complaint against him in his management of the office, and it is barely possible, despite Senator Piles' opposition, he would not have been supplanted in the office had not the Adams peculation been discovered. Even now there is no telling when the change will be made. W. H. Vernon, a noted Negro educator of Kansas, will, according to an Associated Press dispatch, be named as register of the treasury by the President, who, when named, will succeed Hon. Judson W. Lyons of Georgia. A new assistant will also be named to succeed Cyrus F. Adams of Chicago. As was intimated by the Pie-maker in last week's paper hereof, John F. Miller proposes to make a fight for the nomination of mayor of Greater Seattle. There will be considerable opposition to Mr. Miller, and while, if nominated, he would have a fighting show of being elected, yet it would take some of the best fighting he ever did in his life to win out. The Pie-maker would suggest the name of W. D. Perkins for city treasurer. No more capable man for the place could be found in the city than Perkins, and it would not be bad politics to shift the office into new hands occasionally.

As soon as the Independent gets its lines in working order in Tacoma it will be able to give to its subscribers a service covering the Sound country and a service that ninety-nine subscribers out of every one hundred having both phones unhesitatingly declare far superior than that given by the other.

It's truly refreshing to meet one newspaper man that does not want you to "listen to my tale of woe." The Industrial Number of the Aberdeen Herald is not a gorgeous display of fine faces, but it is full and overflowing with industrial facts about its city and surrounding country, that the outsider casting about for a location will be mighty glad to get hold of it. Those interested in the growth of Aberdeen could not do a better thing for their town than to scatter all over the country, and especially in those sections of the country where such industries thrive many copies of that number, and it will be bread cast upon the waters. Who Will Be Register? is a North Yakima headline in the Democrat, just as though it had any right or interest in the matter. In all human probability a Republican will be register, and the selection of that Republican need not give the Democrat a single minute's worry one way or the other. However, it is learned that a number of leading Republicans of that section are hoping that lightning will strike them and they will be commissioned by President Roosevelt to be register at the North Yakima U. S. land office, which vacancy was brought about by the death of Henry V. Hinman. The two leading canddates, however, so thinks the Demcorat, are Z. Y. Coleman of North Yakima and Capt. A. C. Steinman of Ellensburg. Col. L. S. Howlett, it further states, was also a formidable candidate for the place, but he has withdrawn his name from the race, he having been offered and accepted a U. S. court commission at Seward, under Federal Judge Jim Wickersham, and is endorsing Coleman. Capt. Steinman seems to be favored by Congressman Jones, which will go a good ways toward landing him right side up with care in the office. Miles Cannon was nominated by the president for the place, but his name was subsequently withdrawn. Steinman of ties, was also a has withdrawn and accepted real Judge Jim apt.

Any one who has ever seen Hartson knows he is a very little man and little men seem only capable of doing very little things. While the "home paper" is not always given the credit for what it really does toward building up the community in which it is published it deserves, yet it looks as if the Port Orchard Independent had a selfish motive in devoting a double column black faced editorial to those of a community who "do not fully appreciate the relations which exist between themselves and their home paper." If plenty of paid advertising is given the paper by the local business men, the relations between the two are very pleasing, but it's a horse of another color if the advertising is not forthcoming. "Sunday closing" got a severe jolt at Castle Rock last week, according to the Advocate of that place. The Sunday saloon closing wave hit Castle Rock hard and the saloon men realizing they would be but kicking against the pricks in opposing the wave, closed their places, but insisted that all other business places be likewise closed. The keeper of a confectionery store resisted and was arrested for breaking the state Sunday closing law. He had his trial last week and was acquitted by a jury and the saloon men are jubilant over the results, as they entertain no fear of themselves being convicted or even being brought to trial for breaking the Sunday closing law. It is learned from the Ellensburg Localizer that three young men were held up near that city by two masked men and relieved of $37 in cash, their watches and other trinkets, and in commenting on the outlawry the Localizer says: "This is the first holdup in Kittitas valley for years, and the news has caused considerable wondering who the two men were." From the phraseology of the comment one would suppose there are many men in that valley degenerate enough to go into that kind of business, and just which two did this particular job is the all-absorbing question. TOBY'S CHRISTMAS. Little Toby in the cabin, Little Toby born to grieve, Hung his little patchwork stocking By the chimney Christmas Eve. Christmas morning little Toby To his patchwork stocking went, And was sorry when found that Santa had no presents sent. For one who kept tab on the late municipal campaign in Georgetown, he can but smile on reading an excerpt from the Nesw of that city, which says: "The News will be pardoned for claiming much of the credit for the success of the Citizens' ticket." Rats! The News was on the fence during the fight and never dropped over on the Mueller side until the last issue before the election, when it had reasons to believe the Mueller ticket would win and it wanted to get in the band wagon. Had the News have supported the Mueller ticket loyally from the very day it was nominated and finally elected such talk might have some weight, but it insisted in the outset that "the News had friends on both tickets and would therefore be neutral in the fight." Newspapers should mold public opinion and not wait for the coin to mold them. Mother felt he'd need consoling, For she thought she saw a tear; But poor Toby quickly answered, "Guess he'll come around next year." "I have seen the pretty presents," Little Toby further said, "That Old Santa has for children In his fine, old-fashioned sled. "Choo-choo cars and little wagons—Nicest things that one could get—And I'm sure that Good Old Santa Will remember Toby yet. Had the Olympia State Capitol one-tenth as many snubs from officials as has The Seattle Republican from officials whom it worked like niggers for during campaigns, the little oversight on the part of the city clerk of that city, which called forth the following from the Capital: "We confess the partiality in placing the publication of the election notices does not commend Clerk Dever to our favorable consideration," it would not weigh so heavily on the editor's mind. We have run a paper for our state, county and city, and likewise for our party, as true as a gold dollar for nearly thirteen years, and our reward was, during campaigns Republicans condescend to take a six months' subscription, but with the injunction that not a day longer would they pay for it. So far as public patronage is concerned, it never occurs to them that The Seattle Republican should be remembered. They seem to realize that the paper is Republican, and cannot consistently be Democratic, and therefore it has nothing coming. "Why, I wrote him 'way last summer Please to bring a little drum!

Stratton, Dan Dean and others, hav- ing been caught redhanded blackmailing business men last Tuesday, it is up to those men, if they want the city purged of such criminal scoundrels, to go before the prosecuting attorney and swear to complaints which will put each and every one of them ‘in steel cages similar to the one now oeeupied by George E. Adams, a former Seattle society man. To be sure, one of the accused is a so-called society man, but if he is guilty of the offence as made pub- lic in all of the daily papers, that ‘‘society man’”’ js a worse criminal by many degrees than is Adams. For the newspapers to merely discharge them from their service and for the business men to let that end the whole matter will be to an extent condon- ing crime and giving protection to criminals. The crime of blackmail is one of the most heinous in the category of criminology—yea, there is no crime wrose, unless it be the seduction of some innocent girl of tender years, and the man guilty of either ‘one is the most fit subject for the penitentiary that ever committed any kind of crime. Reportorial newspaper grafting has been a flourishing industry in Seattle ever since the palmy Tom Humes administration days, and in some in- stances even before that. While the matter never reached the general public’s ear, nevertheless it is currently reported that the Post-Intelligencer, some three or four years ago, fired two, if not three, of its reporters, who occupied high seats in the social world of Seatlte, because it had reasons to believe that those reporters were grafting certain men be- low Yesler Way in the name of the paper. The Post-Intelligencer made a serious mistake in not making a publie expose of the affair at that time. The reporters were relieved from further duty on the P.-I., but soon found employment elsewhere, and largely because they could and would damn the name of John L. Wilson. Had those grafting blackmailers been brought before the bar of justice then the in- dustry would not have thrived on until it reached the proportions it is now said to be practiced here. Tf the case reported by the daily papers this week js not one for a thorough official investigation on the part of the prosecuting attorney, then where would you find one? Speaking about men being blackmailed by newspapers, a certain business man said to the writer hereof one day this week, before the Stratton expose, that he always figured on giving a certain paper in this city so much patronage every year. Not so much for the good that it did his business, “but because I am a man that goes out occasionally for a time and that ——-—— always knows it, and I want to keep on his good side.’’ Now, here is a man who lives the life of the double damned. He could be in no worse mental condition if a term in the penitentiary hung over his head if his acts were apprehended. Blackmailing, or, as some are pleased to term it, ‘‘grafting,’’ has reduced itself to an in- dustrial science, and business men are called upon in a hundred and one ways to give up to it. Granted the business man has made some moral mismove, it is not in the province of newspapers to blackmail him on it, for the general public is in no wise inter- ested in it, unless he committed a crime, and in that ease the person knowing of it should acquaint the prosecuting attorney of the facts, or such person is particeps criminis after the fact. A genuine black- mailer is not fit to live among his fellow beings, and he should be either sent to prison for life or abso- lutely Killed. Has Been Suspected—For some moons it -has been very generally believed that some one about poth the Star and Times was working the graft game overtime. During the session of the ninth legislature, articles appeared in those papers about certain members, or did not appear in proportion to the amount of paying up the proscribed member did. Mayor Zook was asked to put up $100 to stop the criticisms of his case appearing in the evening pa- pers, so a friend of his made pold to assert one day this week. The roasting the county commissioners got for changing hospital physicians in the evening papers cost, it is calimed, the Seattle Brewing & Malting Co. quite a snug sum of money, a reporter alone getting fifty. And so this story could be spun on and on ad infinitum. An old newspaper man was overheard to say last Wednesday morning: ‘‘I am satisfied that the various dailies have a gang of grafters at work on them doing any and everybody they can, whose equals have never before been known in any city in the West, if in the United States, and, it seems to me, to be nothing short of assinine stupidity that the heads of the papers have not found it out before now.’’ Grafting is but a mild term for blackmail and extortion, against which statutory laws have been enacted in this state for the punishment of the guilty ones. It will be remembered that Joe Young and his wife were sent to the penitentiary for attempting to blackmail or extort money from W. S. Relf, a local attorney and politician, under cireumstances not very much dif- ferent from that the dailies accuse Stratton and Dan Dean in figuring in. Therefore, if the prosecuting attorney goes after these grafters he will not be lacking for precedent. VOTE FOR THE BONDS. Lest you forget that it is your duty to vote for the park bonds, your attention is again called to the coming election for that purpose December 28th. As was pointed out in the last issue of this paper, here is an instance where the more wealthy citizens of the city are anxious to purchase parks and play grounds for the poorer citizens if the latter will only give them the legal right to do so, and it will seem almighty strange if the poorer citizens pre- vent them from doing so. The taxes the poorer citi- zens would have to individually pay for those bonds would not be as much as it will cost for the head of the family and his wife to go to one of the family theatres for an evening’s entertainment. And yet that family will get the benefit of a park system throughout the city that will be everything in the way way of health and happiness to every family in the city. The city may be doing a great deal of im- provement, but publie parks are absolute necessi- ties for big cities, and we should not overlook that fact at this time. Administrator of liam R.
