Schofield, of much army record, died in Florida last Sunday evening. The last Democratic mayor Seattle had gave her the cold shudders. Is her history to repeat itself? The famine fund for Japan which has been fathered by the P.-I. should receive Moore boosts now than ever. Russia is endeavoring to have Vladivostock named as the commercial center on the Pacific coast over Shanghai. Alaska's new governor is to be W. B. Hoggatt of Juneau. We wish him success, whether he be a hog at it or just a common pig at it. This community has the habit of slaughtering good men up for office. It did it to Frink and now it has done it to Riplinger. Mount Rainier is no volcano, but it is no fault of the Seattle Twinkler that always has a festering sensation of some kind in a state of eruption. Men who attempt to cast an illegal vote cannot be punished for lack of a statute covering the crime, is the opinion of the prosecuting attorney's What a pity! Perhaps the P.-I. is correct in saying Ballinger was the best mayor Seattle ever had, and it in our opinion could have said as much about Riplinger if it had elected him last Tuesday. "Politics makes strange bedfellows," is an old adage in which there is still more truth than poetry, and in verification thereof the P.-I. and the Times both cuddled up in Billy Moore's bed before the election. Candidate Moore declared on the rostrum last Saturday evening that gambling was running wide open in this city at that time. Now we trust VOL. XII. NO. 41 SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1906 Mayor Moore will see to it that open gambling is closed up as soon as he takes his seat. It is claimed by Turkish officials that the Albian rebellion has been suppressed, which may or may not be true; but you can rest assured that hundreds if not thousands of Albions have been put to rest by the bloodthirsty Turks. Rev. F. L. Wharton suggests a public installation of the city officials, where addresses could be made, and as it were lay the law down to the servants of the people. It might be alright to lay the law down to them if they would pick it up again. The term, "Black Maria," originated in Boston about the year 1853, when that city first employed a covered vehicle for conveying prisoners between the courtrooms and the jail. Being painted black, it was promptly named by the populace the "Black Maria," its godmother, so to say, being an old Negress named Maria, who was a well-known local character. --- [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie]. A GOOD MAN DEFEATED. Every one who knows John Riplinger will unhesitatingly agree that a most excellent man went down to political defeat last Tuesday, as a result of the Seattle election. We do not believe the man has a real enemy throughout the whole length and breadth of the city of Seattle, and yet he was unmercifully slaughtered by the voters thereof. It was an awful rebuke for some one, and while Riplinger, under the circumstances had to take the dose, yet we know it was not intended for him. Such, however, are the fortunes of war (politics), but one can not but regret to see a good man sacrificed for the sins of others. In retiring from public life, John Riplinger will take the good will and wishes of hundreds and thousands of his fellow citizens with him, which, we believe, will be of good service to him in whatever avocation he may cast his lot. Mr. Riplinger deserved a better fate than that meted out to him last Tuesday, and in our opinion time will prove that we are more than right in the assertion. "I now realize," said he, "that I have a host of personal friends in Seattle, or I would have been snowed under thousands of votes," which is quite correct, for with the forces against him that were evident throughout the campaign it is miraculous that he was not defeated by a 5,000 plurality. The Seattle Republican, aside from a general regret at the defeat of a Republican nominee for mayor, keenly regrets Mr. Riplinger's defeat because he has always proven himself to be the friend of the man truly in need of real friendship. WANT DIRECT PRIMARIES If the Republican party in this city, county and state desires to hold its power, the members thereof should take steps at once to have the next legislature pass the direct primary law. The people demand this and will not take no for an answer, and if JOHN RIPLINGER UNIVERSITY OF LIBRARY PRICE TEN CENTS Republicans do not pass it the people will elect some other kind of a partisan to office and especially the legislature, who will do so. Had the nominations for the late election been made by the direct primary system the Republican ticket would have been elected by overwhelming majorities, but the people got it into their heads that the nominee for mayor on the Republican ticket was the creature of a few cunning politicians, and so they voted him to private life, not that they liked Riplinger less, but as a rebuke to those cunning politicians, who manipulate things. It is but natural for the corporate influence to be against the direct primary law, for with it in operation it can not dictate the party nominees, and its only hope to control under a direct primar law would be to corrupt every man elected to office with bribes, which it could not always do. The direct primary law must be enacted by the next legislature. * * * Greater Pittsburg's First Election. The first mayoralty election in the recently consolidated cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny took place on Feb. 20, when George W. Guthrie, Democrat, was elected over Alexander M. Jenkinson, Republican, in one of the most spectacular elections ever held in Western Pennsylvania. At night various estimates were given as to his majority. The most conservative politicians placed it at 5,000, while the more enthusiastic believed that it would reach anywhere from 12,000 to 15,000. The election of Guthrie was a complete knockout to the Republican city machine. The result was merely an uprising of the indignant voters, who cast aside party lines to take the offices of the city out of the hands of the men who have held them for so long. Jenkinson, who is a millionaire cigar manufacturer, was the candidate of the Frick-Mellon-Cassatt combine, and hundreds of thousands of dollars were thrown into the city to elect him. * * * No Politics for Mitchell. President John Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers, made the announcement last week that a nomination for Congress on the Democratic ticket had been offered to him by the Democratic committee of the district of Peoria, Ill. He declined the nomination with thanks, stating that he would not accept any political office. PECULIAR AND PERTINENT. (Spokesman-Review.) The railroads of India have recently adopted a standard time, which is five and a half hours ahead of Greenwich. A London cabman has provided against possible accidents by inventing an automobile that can be used as such or drawn by a horse. Women in China have the privilege of fighting in the wars. In the rebellion of 1850 women did as much fighting as the men. At Nankin, in 1853, 500,000 women from various parts of the country were formed into brigades of 13,000 each, under female officers. Of these soldiers, 10,000 were picked women, drilled and garrisoned in the city. At one time the London zoo had a standing offer of $5,000 for a good adult male giraffe. Not only are the animals scarce in Africa, but the work of transporting them over the sea is the despair of every wild beast importer. And even when after infinite solicitude and care they are safely landed in New York, Hamburg or London, they are apt to die like flowers. Switzerland's exports of machinery and implements in 1904 are valued at about $9,500,000. Electrical machinery and machines used for weaving, knitting and embroidering were the principal items. As this little country has no iron or coal, but must import the heavy materials by railroads, the exportation of machinery speaks well for its industrial skill. WHAT BISHOP TURNER SAID. So much has been said as to what Bishop H. M. Turner did actually say in that Georgia speech that the following communication to the Atlanta Constitution from Bishop Turner himself is reproduced: "Much has been said of late and even telegraphed over the country to the effect that I called the flag of the nation a dirty and contemptible rag. I beg to say that I did no such thing. I have traveled from one end of the nation to the other, and from one side to the other, and I know all about its territory and its vast resources. I have seen how the flag is honored and respected in foreign nations and on the oceans, and for me to make such a statement as that alleged would be to proclaim myself the fool of fools. But in a speech at our Equal Rights convention at Macon, of forty or forty-five minutes in length, criticizing the lethargy of my race for not exercising the right of petition, and protest to the governor, legislature, Congress and the President. I did say that there was not a star in the flag that the Negro could claim, or that recognized his civil liberty and unconditional manhood, any more than if it was a dirty rag. I am sorry everything I said was not published. I did say that there is more color babble in the United States than in hell itself; that color is unknown there; that men go there on account of crime and vicious lives; but that in the United States everybody's value or non-value depends on color." After all it seems to us that the editor of the P.I. went off half cocked in his criticisms of Bishop Turner and his alleged "treasonable" remarks, but no more could be expected of him since it is remembered that he lived in the state of Georgia for a number of years, though northern born, and also having married one of the "seen better days" girls of the South, and, it being a fact that Northern men who go South to live generally out do the Southern folk themselves in anti-Negro preju- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN dice, just to show the Southerners they are alright good fellows, the mind of the editor in chief of the P.-I. was so poisoned under the circumstances against Negroes in general that it is perfectly natural for him to go off half cocked when an apparent opportunity presented itself for him to criticize some prominent Negro who "thinks himself good as white folks." REALM OF RELIGION. England, is to conserve to Christian believers, and especially to those contemplating service in the ministry of the church, the right to study the Scriptures with intelligent criticism and reverently to interpret them in the light of what is revealed by their study. One object of the movement in England was to open the path to ordination for a large class of intelligent and devout young men barred by the denial of this right. The movement is being forwarded in this country by sending to members of the Episcopal Church, lay as well as clerical, a circular letter calling attention to the letter circulated in England, which is appended to it. It is suggested that those who endorse it will make for themselves such corrections as are necessary to adapt it to American conditions, as in such a phrase as "general assent on the part of their rulers," which does not apply, except in England where the Church is allied with the State. A CHURCH FOUNDED BY CHIL- DREN. There is something in stories of children's devotion to religious ideals which cannot fail to touch the heart, even if the mind is sceptical concerning religion itself. Especially interesting in this respect is the story of the Church of the Christ Child on Vieques Island, Porto Rico. Four years ago there was not a Protestant Christian on the island; and now a beautiful brick church opens its doors to a congregation of more than 300 persons on every Sunday. This church is a monument to the moral heroism of a young boy, Felipe Cruz, who became interested in Protestantism and embraced it in the face of opposition and ill-will. He developed into a apostle of his new-found faith, and was the means of winning many others to it. The result was the building of this little church—elegant and stately for that part of the world. Into this story there enters that of another child, Luray Mildred Dailey, the young daughter of Rev. E. T. Dailey, pastor of the Methodist Church in Marysville, O. At the age of thirteen years she lay dying, in April, 1904, and, comforted by the religion she early had learned to love, she asked that her Testament should be sent to China for some little Chinese girl, and that her account in the savings bank should go to some place "where it will do good forever." At the Central Ohio Conference the following year, Bishop Earl Cranston told the story of Felipe Cruz. Mr. Dailey heard it and accepted it as a revelation of where his child's legacy would "do good forever." And so it came that in the Church of the Christ Child on Vieques Island, built through the heroism of one young believer, the pulpit stand, with two oak chairs and an oak communion table, stand in the church as the dying gift of another child. RICHMOND'S NEW CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL. Easter will be an especially glad time for the Catholics of Richmond, Va., this year, as it will be marked by the occupation of the beautiful new cathedral, one of the finest church edifices in the country. Its erection is due mainly to the generosity of Mrs. Thomas F. Ryan, whose gift of $250,000 was the nucleus of a fund which had rapid growth. The corner stone of the edifice was laid on June 4, 1903, by Mgr. Diomede Falconi, the Apostolic Delegate. The building occupies one of the highest points in the city and is a commanding object from many directions. It is described as a symphony in soft tints, the gray and green stone forming a pile that harmonizes with and forms a part of the leafy shades about it. It affords seating capacity for 1,150 persons. JAPAN LEANING TOWARD CHRISTIANITY. According to the annual report of the American Tract Society, current events indicate the coming acceptance of Christianity by Japan as one of the fruits of the recent war. Among the cities from which, in the last year, have come requests for the permanent establishment of administrative secretaries is Tokio. The report also says that the Government schools in Japan and also in Turkey, China, and other foreign countries, are creating a million new readers every year for whom Christian literature is needed. A permanent endowment is requested. During 1905 the society circulated nearly 3,000,000 periodicals. Union Savings & Trust Co. Cor. Second Ave. and Cherry St. Hoge Building Seattle, Wash.

"Hell is a refuge if it hide me from thy frown."—Altamont. "I would gladly give 30,000 pounds to have it proven there is no hell."—Charteres. "Give me more laudanum that I may not think of eternity and what is to come."—Mirabeau. "Oh, my poor soul! what will become of thee? Whither wilt thou go?"—Cardinal Mazarin. The atheist Hobb's last words were: "I am taking a fearful leap into the dark." Voltaire was a noted, wealthy infidel, yet his last words were: "I am abandoned by God and man; I shall die and go to hell." "When I lived I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and I am unprovided to die."—Caesar Borgia. Tom Payne, the popular infidel, died drunk and swearing. His last words were: "Stay with me, for God's sake; I cannot bear to be left alone; it is hell to be left alone." Sir Francis Newport, rising on his elbow when dying, exclaimed: "Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell! Oh, Eternity! forever and forever!" "Until this moment I thought there was neither a God nor a hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty."—Sir Thos. Scott. "For in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." Matt. 24:44. Wings & t Co. FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1906. Political Pot=Pie After March 19th the city officials for the ensuing two years will be as follows: Mayor—William Hickman Moore (M. O.). Corporation Counsel—Scott Calhoun R.). Treasurer—George F. Russell (R.). Comptroller—Harry W. Carroll (R.). Councilmen-atLarge—Frank P. Mullen (R.). F. H. Hurd (R.). Ward Councilmen. First Ward—James Conway (R.). Second Ward—Dr. A. G. Keene (M. O.). Third Ward—H. C. Gill (R.). Fourth Ward—Frederick Sawyer (R.). Fifth Ward—Ellis Morrison (R.). Sixth Ward—Arnold Zbinden (R.). Seventh Ward—T. P. Revelle (R.). Eighth Ward—Dr. J. E. Crichton (R.). Ninth Ward—William Murphy (R.). Tenth Ward—R. T. Reynolds (R.). Eleventh Ward—J. O. Kelso (M. O.). That the late election was fraught with many surprises goes without saying. While the Republican ticket was generally successful, the Municipal Ownership ticket elected W. H. Moore mayor, Albert G. Keene councilman from the Second ward, defeating H. L. Jaffee, and James Kelso from the Eleventh ward, defeating George W. Hill. Mayor-elect Moore got in by fifteen plurality, Keene by 111 plurality and Kelso by 43 plurality. The Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh wards all showed a decided opposition to all of the Republican nominees, as Moore carried the three wards and the other candidates made no startling show of strength. All of the charter amendments, as well as the two bond propositions, carried by good majorities except the one to raise the salaries of the officials. On the face of the election returns in this city the maporalty contest has been won by William Hickman Moore, the Democratic candidate, on the small margin of fifteen votes, which, so far as the right to the office is concerned, is as adequate as fifteen thousand votes. How it happened? has been repeatedly asked, since every old line Republican in the city swears by all that's good that he "voted her straight." It, however, has happened and the least said about it is the easiest mended, especially for the future good of the party. One of the causes, however, for the direct defeat of Riplinger was the general belief throughout the city that the Seattle Electric Company dictated his nomination and the people desired to rebuke that company. A second cause for Riplinger's defeat was the fact that the voters thought there was too much city hall-court house ring in the ticket. That and that alone cost the ticket hundreds of votes. Last, but no wise least, was the fact that the Clancy-Piper politicians were thought to be too close to the throne for the real good of the city. In the campaign a prominent official of the Pacific Coast Company publicly remarked: "Our company spent $40,000 to put those political scoundrels out of business and yet here they are holding the whip over every one of the candidates nominated on the Repub- lican ticket as owing their nomination to them." The official shook his head knowingly and said no more. That the influence of that company was used against Mr. Riplinger goes without saying. That the severe jolt the Republican ticket received last Tuesday in Seattle leaves the Republican party in bad shape for the fall campaign is an open secret. It is reported that Edward Cudihee has already announced his intention of seeking the Democratic nomination for sheriff, and if he asks for it he will get it, and that he will give the Republican nominee the fight of his life for the election every sensible person in King county veribly believes. The late campaign and election have left many sore spots in the Republican ranks, and there will be considerable getting back in the fall election. It will be remembered that J. M. Frink was slaughtered by his friends just as was John Riplinger, and the election following Frink's defeat John Wooding was beaten for sheriff by Edward Cudihee, and no other motive or cause was responsible for his defeat except that, the friends of Frink played even for his defeat, they believing that Wooding held a high hand in the game that put Frink down and out. In speaking about the county nominees for next fall, if the usual custom of the party is followed out, give every man with a good official record a second term, the most of the present officials will be renominated. In which case O. A. Case would succeed himself for county clerk, Matt H. Gormley would succeed himself for treasurer, J. P. Agnew for auditor, Kenneth Mackintosh for prosecuting attorney, L. C. Smith for sheriff, Dr. F. M. Carroll for coroner, A. L. Valentine for surveyor, and Dan R. Abrams for commissioner of the Second District. The only new nominees under such a ruling would be for assessor and commissioner for the Third District. On account of the late catastrophe some of these men will have trouble in getting the nomination and will have more trouble if they get the nomination, when they go to the polls. Already Dan R. Abrams is meeting opposition in his aspirations to succeed himself and a meeting will be held in this city tomorrow (Saturday) that will almost decide his fate. Case is being vigorously opposed; Mackintosh has his enemies, and Sheriff Smith has troubles of his own. LESSONS IN MOORE'S ELECTION. William Hickman Moore has been elected mayor of Seattle, on a platform declaring for municipal ownership of public utilities. A council opposed to the radical principles of municipal ownership was elected, so it is beyond the range of possibilities that Mr. Moore will have an opportunity of putting his ideas into effect. Just the same, Moore's election is proof positive that instead of shying at municipal ownership, the people are ready to embrace it. There are few things certain in this life, but the trend seems to be toward the principle of the people taking hold of and operating those things which serve the uses of the public. That a try is going to be made not only at THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN municipal but at government ownership no one may doubt. No matter what individuals or individual newspapers may think of the wisdom of this great departure from the established order of things in the United States, it is a foolish man who shuts his eyes to such portents as we have lately seen. Chicago led off by electing a ticket pledged to city ownership of the traction lines. It is useless to say that no progress has been made along the lines of carrying out of pre-election promises. The law has intervened to hamper Mayor Dunne but it must be remembered that the people make the laws and, when so minded, they will unmake them. The people of Chicago are going to own and operate every public utility in that city. They have so decreed and the movement is growing in intensity all the time. New York City, the lair of the capitalist and corporation man, almost elected William R. Hearst as mayor on a straight municipal ownership ticket. The Reveille says "nearly elected" but there are hundreds of thousands of voters in New York who are ready to swear that Hearst was elected, in fact. That he will be a candidate for governor of New York on a public ownership ticket is certain, and that he will be elected is a strong probability. It is far cry from New York to Seattle, and conditions in the two cities are supposed to be totally different, yet on Tuesday Seattle did a little better than New York and elected a municipal ownership mayor by a small majority. If New York, on the Atlantic coast, Chicago, in the middle West, and Seattle, away out on the Western coast, all favor this great question is it reasonable to believe that the people in other cities and in the rural districts of this vast country feel any differently? They feel just the same as those who have had a chance to express themselves on this question, and it is on this question that the next great fight in this country is to come. Bellingham Reveille. Sam Hible, of Cherry Valley, and Billy Ellis, of Avondale precinct, who have been making a quiet canvass of the third commissioner district, were in Issaquah the first of the week inspecting the political fences. Sam is a candidate for county commissioner and says that he will go down to the county convention with a frameup that will puzzle all other aspirants to circumnavigate. He claims to have the promised support of a large number of the Republican party workers who have received favors from him in past campaigns and who are now ready to redeem their pledge. The only other person who has been prominently mentioned as a Republican candidate for commissioner from this district, is Almos Rutherford, of Fall City, who at the present time holds the position of County Purchasing Agent. At this stage of the game it looks very much like the Fall City man has a stand-in with the dealer. He holds the age and has passed up a pat hand. Will it come to a show down?—Issaquah Independent. It is rumored that friends are endeavoring to induce Senator W. A. Carle to stand for county commissioner from the south district of King County. Mr. Carle is a citizen of Georgetown and is well and favorably known throughout the greater portion of the county as a sound business man, and active politician and a very sociable gentleman. Mr. Carle would undoubtedly give satisfaction to the residents from this end of the county and The News would be glad to learn that he will make the race.—Georgetown News. THE COLVILLE BILL PASSES The action of the Senate yesterday in concurring in amendments to the bill opening the Colville reservation will be greeted with genuine satisfaction by the people of the state of Washington. Senator Dubois, who has been opposing the measure finally withdrew his objections and favorable action followed immediately. Nothing now remains but the signature of President Roosevelt to make the act a bill. This legislation is a personal victory for Senator Ankeny and Congressman Jones, who have been working unceasingly for three years to secure yesterday's result. They have won out over powerful opposition and again displayed their devotion to their constituents and their usefulness to the state. With such men in Congress Washington may well congratulate herself on the wisdom of her choice and from a merely business standpoint, if for no other reason, she should continue them in office. The law will open up a million three hundred thousand acres of the public domain to entry under proclamation of the President. The lands to be sold and entered at an appraised valuation after eighty acre allotments are made to about fifteen hundred Indians.—Walla Walla Union. How perfectly natural for Levi Ankeny's paper to praise anything that Senator Ankeny does. If there was any hard work done on getting the bill through you can put it in your pipe and smoke it that Jones did it. A WORD ABOUT POLITICS. There is every reason to believe that Ballard will not be exempt this year from the desire manifest everywhere in the United States for clean men for office. There never was a time when "gang" politicians were so much at a discount, when there was a stronger disposition to retire "bosses" to private life and to keep them there. There is every reason why Mr. Peters, candidate for county commissioner, should have the solid support of Ballard in his candidacy for county commissioner. Mr. Peters represents the kind of Republican whose constituents never have occasion to apologize for him. Ballard cannot afford to be represented on the county board by any man with any taint of graft. Because the Ballard Record recognizes in Mr. Peters sterling integrity clean political methods, and serious and capable loyalty to the interests of the people, the Ballard Record endorses his candidacy for county commissioner from this district.—Ballard Record. Councilman Dave Bowen is slated for the presidency of the new council. It has been hinted that Dave has his eye on the mayoralty chair and will cut bait for the next two years. HARRY F.

Mrs. Newtoon was Johnny Bailey’s mother, and the news of his tragic end was more than she could bear, and she collapsed as soon as she heard the news. Mrs. Jones, who is a daughter of Mrs. Newton, is deserving of much Christian sympathy. Mr. B. F. Tutt has opened up a brand new barber shop near the new Union Depot, which is the most pala- tial tonsorial parlor ever opened in Seattle in which men with dark faces take their turn on the chairs just the same as with white faces—and he ex- periences no serious drawbacks thereby, though there is a shop direct- ly agross the street from his that draws the uusal color line on black faces. A barber shop is a place where men go to get shaved, and not to shoot off their mouths, and colored men patronizing Tutt’s shop should bear this in mind, Johnny Bailey Murdered.—The hor- rible death which Johnny M. Bailey, a well known young man about town, who had worked in various capacities in the leading hotels and clubs of this city for the past sixteen years, has been the talk of the town for the past week. Some kind of a dispute arose between Bailey and Thomas Taylor, a fellow waiter, and while no one seems to know just what was said, the argu- ment became hot enough between the two to cause Taylor, who was cutting bread at the time, to use the nasty blade with deadly effect on Bailey. He stabbed him once, but before he could do so again Bailey ran into the dining room, closely pursued by Taylor. With hell in his heart nothing but the man’s heart’s blood would seem to soothe his anger. The two men were sepa- rated and it was soon discovered that Bailey had been dangerously stabbed. He was taken to the hospital and lived until 4:30 p, m. Saturday, the cutting affray having taken place Friday even- ing at 6 p. m. at the Washington hotel, where both men were waiters. Tay- lor, in the excitement that followed, escaped but was subsequently cap- tured. The remains of Bailey were buried Wednesday. The funeral cere- monies were held at Lee’s Chapel and a host of friends were present with Rey. Donohooe officiating. Thomas Taylor, the waiter who fa- tally stabbed Johnny Bailey,. was ap- prehended and arrested in Vancouver, B. C., last Wednesday. He willingly returned to the states with officers, and he is now in the county jail await- ing a charge of murder in the first de- gree to be filed against him. ee aa Four Colored Clerks—Among the new clerks recently assigned to duty THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Slr at ae ‘ aie 4 Soe . _. ag peg SS oe ~~. we UU — OS ee ~. = > a6 _ _ 4 4 The leading speaker at the Sunday Forum next Sunday afternoon will be Mr. I, F. Norris, who perhaps is the most pleasing off-hand speaker among the Afro-Americans of the Northwest. He is a native of Memphis, Tennessee, and served six years in the senate of that state. He was also prominent in the political affairs of Oklahoma, where he lived for five years. He moved to Seattle five years ago and went into the grocery business, but he subsequently sold that business and went into the drayage and ex- press business in which he is now en- gaged and from all appearances is do- ing exceedingly well at it. Coming as he does from the South, and especially from Memphis, he is able to handle the subject, “Does the Negro Benefit Himself by Leaving the South and Settling in the West?” very interest- ingly as well as entertainingly. in the postoffice of this city are, Rob- ert P. Ball and Homer Harris, two of the brightest subjects from an exam- ination stand point that have been given places in the postoffice in this city for a long long time. Both ot these young men are Afro-Americans and their superior officers say they give promise of becoming very valu- able as well as serviceable men. Young Ball had done similar service in Honolulu and got a transfer to this point, but Harris is new in the busi- ness. He stood first on the certified list of eligibles, which meant he led all similar applicants in the competi- tive examination. The name of John W. L. Hort is among the eligibles for new carriers and his time may come almost any day. There are at present four Afro-American clerks in the Seat- tle postoffice, a messenger and a jan- iter, with the prospects of a carrier in the very near future. The names of the Afro-American employes are as follows: Walter Merguson, George O. Allen, Robert P. Ball, Homer Harris, Isaiah Allen (messenger) and Charles Sims (janitor); with John W. L.

The Forum portunity in this country depends sole- ly on his brain, instead of on his vote. if the Seattle postoffice was not un- der civil service it would have been as utterly impossible for a Negro to have gotten even one clerkship as it would be for him to turn the post- office building over with his own hands. No postmaster, whether Re- publican or Democrat, would have un- der any circumstances given a Negro employment as a clerk, and if he had have attempted it every other clerk in the office would have rebelled, but under civil service all the applicants’ papers look alike to the markers, and the ones who make the highest mark regardless of his color, gets the jobs. Neither the markers nor the board at Washington has any means of know- ing the nationality of the applicant, hence they could not discriminate against the black man even if they desired to do so, The conclusion ot the whole matter is, unless the Ne- gro prepares himself to do what he hopes to do in life just as well or even better than his competitor he will al- ways be weighed in a balance and found wanting. In verifiying this point the Republicans are in full control of every state office and almost every county office in the state, and yet not I. F.

Your party vote gets you nothing, so look to. your brain. BE A MAN. (From Chicago Conservator.) With chisel in hand, and a hard piece of stone, Set to work with all your might; Don’t spoil your work, but strive alone, And depend on yourself in Life’s great fight. Be a man! Let your work be fine; each stroke you make With mallet and chisel, be true and firm, And remember that all in life have a stake And must work to win and with pa- tience learn. Be a man! By working hard in Life’s great fight, And haying a purpose firm and true, Though downcast at morning, you're up at night. ’Tis the only way this world to get through. Be a man! As you travel through life, you often get snubbed, Rubbed and cut and blocked on your way, But all precious jewels must be cut and rubbed, Before their value will show worth the pay. Be a man! So whistle and sing as you journey along, Smile and make happy, all, through each day, With kind words while working, a joke and a song, In meeting, in passing, in going away. ‘ Be a man! W. G. 8. FAME’S PATHWAY. Dr. L. Dadkofer, professor of botany at Munich, recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of his dectorate. Jan Kubelik, the violinist, had been almost engaged to play at a musical at James Henry Smith’s, in New York, when he learned that it was to be a feast, “I will not play where people are tidgeting with their food,” he said. His dignity, Kugelik said, would not permit it. The engagement was made through Herr Conried and Kubelik was to have received $2000 for his services. Rey. Robert Harley is the only Con- gregational minister who is a member of that famous London club, the Athenaeus, and he is also a Fellow of the Royal Society. It is curious to re- flect that whereas he has made a world wide reputation as a mathema- tician, he showed but little aptitude for mathematics as a boy, and was 14 be- fore he really knew his multiplication table.

FOR JAPAN PORTS Carrying Passengers and Freight. THEATRICAL. "The White Caps" at the Third Avenue theatre this week has a special interest, even to people up North. It tells the story of the doings of this band of outlaws who are the illegitimate successors of what was known in the South as the Klu Klux. Their depredations are very vividly depicted in the play. The White Caps were not composed of representative citizens. They are mostly made up of mountainers and lawless spirits dissatisfied with the judgment of the courts. Almost every member of the Taylor Company stands out in this play. Laurette Taylor is again with the company and although her part is not the leading one she does it so daintily and lifelike that everybody admires her. Aileen May has a good sympathetic part and Edwin Kellie plays the fearless sheriff in more than an acceptable manner. Other members of the company make the most of disagreeable parts which they act so well that White Caps will long be remembered. The last performance will be given Saturday night. It is safe to say that the popular Third Avenue theatre will be crowded to its utmost capacity at every performance during the week of March 11th, for then Seattle will see the first performance on any stage of Chas. A. Taylor's great and new play, "Scotty, King of the Desert Mine," featuring the popular Taylor Company and Walter Scott, the Death Valley miner, the play will simply be a mass of sensational features from end to end, and all of the favorites in this company will have especially adapted parts in which to shine. LAURA FRANKENFIELD. Laura Frankenfield will present "Her Double Life" at the Grand Sunday and Monday nights, March 11 and 12. Our people will welcome the brilliant actress, Miss Laura Frankenfield, and a strong company to our city. The play is said to be one to please all classes and as to the merit of the company we know. The play selected for this tour is entitled "Her Double Life," and the part of Mercy Merrick is particularly Another Large Shipment Of the beautiful Hobart M. Cable pianos arrived yesterday, including several of their new styles and most artistic designs ever produced by these very progressive manufacturers. The Hobart M. Cable pianos are thoroughly well made, of the best material, beautifully designed, exquisitely musical, and have created a furore of comment from the Atlantic to the Pacific with dealer, musician and critic. Their genuine merits have been recognized everywhere. And, as variety is the spice of life, we respectfully direct your attention to the world-renowned Chickering & Sons, the celebrated Kimball, the reliable Pease, the excellent Haddorff, the ever-popular New D. S. Johnston Co., Special Pianos, which we have the honor to represent exclusively. Then, too, we have the Kimball Reed and Pipe Organs and Clough & Warren Church Organs we should like to show you. And last, but by no means least, we are the general and exclusive distributors of the Metrostyle Pianola, the Weber Pianola Piano, the Wheelock Pianola Piano—in fact, the entire Aeolian line. D. S. JOHNSTON CO. 963 Second Ave. Burke Buldg. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN arranged to display Miss Frankenfield's talent. Special stage settings and elaborate costumes to aid the capable company in their work will make this the event of the season. REILLY & WOODS' BIG SHOW. At the Seattle all next week Reilly & Woods' Big Show will be seen. The names of Reilly and Woods have for years been symbolic only of that which is worthy and meritorious. This season it is no exception to previous years. Mr. Pat Reilly, the man whom we get the habit of enjoying more every time we see him, will head the list of performers, and in his quaint, whimsical way will drive our dull thoughts and care away. Among other well known favorites may be quoted Orth & Fern, Kennedy & Evans, The Revere Sisters, the grand spectacular ballet "Hades up to date," a $5,000 production introducing Mike Fenton. B. C. Whitney's gorgeous musical production, "Piff Paff, Pouf," with an all-star cast, will be the offering at the "Piff, Paff Pouf" has been called a "musical cocktail," and this cognomen fits it better than anything else. The book, lyrics and music were written by Stanislaus Strange, William Jerome and Jean Schwartz, among the most successful composers, and song writers of the period. The cost to be seen here comprises many well-known favorites of stageland, among them Kathryn Osterman, Fred W. Mace, Charles A. Morgan, Nellie Hewitt, R. E. Graham, Evelyn Dunmore, Lulu McConnell, Harry Stuart and Lisle Bloodgood. In addition there is a well trained chorus of fifty and the great pony ballet. GADSKI CONCERT. Mme. Joanna Gadski, the eminent German soprano, will be heard in concert at the Grand on Tuesday, March 13. Of the few noted singers touring America this year, Madame Gadski probably would be selected as preeminent. Her marvelous voice and dramatic temperament which combined to win her fame as the foremost Wagnerian singer of recent years, both bear the qualities of youth and freshness; for, unlike the half dozen or so prima donnas now before the public, Madame Gadski is in her prime, and her powers at their point of fullest and richest development. No pathetic reminder of a glory now departed is the offering that she makes, rather, the Gold Shield Coffee the Coffee that's ALWAYS good, is the very best Coffee obtainable; roasted in Seattle and packed in 1-lb and 2-lb air-tight cans, therefore, always fresh. Guaranteed by Schwabacher Bros. & Co., Inc. spectacle is one of the complete and perfect fulfillment of the promise which her appearance but a few years ago afforded. Beautiful of face, magnetic in personality, and gifted with a voice such as is heard but once or twice a decade, it is not at all surprising that her coming should be considered an event of very first importance.
