Folk has ordered the Springfield, Mo. lynching murderers arrested for murder. That has the proper ring. Senator Tillman may be a "man of note," but he strikes us as being an unusually low note.

Hell Fire sermons may again become as popular as they were when old Lorenzie Dow corralled sinners with a ram's horn, but we have our doubts. Blind Pigs promises to be just as pestiferous the coming season as in the past, judging from the unusual activity of the little blind devils at the present time. Elijah Second should be satisfied to retire from Zion as plain Millionaire Alexander Dowie and ride in a $10,000 auto instead of the once famous chariot of fire. Self Defense is a time-worn lie that all murderers set up to escape the gallows, and J. F. John, who almost if not quite murdered Nelson, is endeavoring to hide behind the same dodge. ```markdown ``` Historical SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 1906 [Name] HON. FRED C. HARPER, Who has been named for Collector of Customs at Port Townsend. HON. FRED C. HARPER, Who has been named for Collector of Customs at Port Townsend. Thomas Jefferson would probably have remarked had he have seen the conglomerated aggregation that celebrated his memory last Friday evening, "How Democracy has changed." "Green Goods" has, since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary, been considered illegal and Attorney General Atkinson in holding green trading stamps illegal but sticks to the law. An Arbor Day is being observed in almost every state in the Union. It is no longer confined to the planting of trees, but to all kinds of shrubbery, fruits and flowers, which will beautify one's home. Mohammedamism is doubtless making many converts among Negroes and Chinese largely because Christianity has made such a muddle in doing what its advocates declared it would do for the beknighted. That Republican nominee for representative to the Tenth legislature that does not pledge to vote for an honest primary law should be left at home even though his district is overwhelmingly Republican. Certainly the S. E. C. can afford to pay the Times thousands of dollars per annum to fight municipal ownership, for even that amount is a mere bagatelle to the amount it robs the people out of annually. Green Lake citizens are to be imposed upon by the Seattle Lighting Company making a bluff at giving them artificial light. A pine torch would serve you equally well, neighbors, and damage your house no worse. Mayor Moore and the city council have locked horns over whether Moore or the council is to distribute the appointive offices, which marks the beginning of a two years' struggle between the mayor and the council. James A. Moore is endeavoring to float a five million dollar steel plant in Seattle and at the same time build the Lake Washington LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 BLICAN PRICE TEN CENTS government canal for $500,000. If Seattle had Moore men like him nothing would get away from her. Two Millions at least read with satisfaction the expose in the Times of Walter Clark's correspondence to the P.-I. Col. Blethen and Joe read it, which made the digit 2, and it was an easy matter for them to add the necessary ciphers. Money Contributions to campaigns in the North is, we must confess, corrupting,but shot gun contributions to campaigns in the South is not only corrupting, but so badly demoralizing that only Democrats seem able to campaign in that section. Lake Washington waterway should itself be condemned by the courts as a public nuisance and a private graft. It came from nothing, it is nothing and it will always be nothing except a drawback to Seattle so long as the whole project is not condemned. Patriotism is very pronounced in the United States senate if no railroad interest does not happen to get mixed up with it, in which case patriotism is "laid on the table" until the railroad magnates get all the goods the senators can provide. Collusion with private concerns at the expense of the citizens has been laid at the door of the retiring state fish commissioners in which chief and deputies are all interested. Is it possible that every man elected to office immediately turns thief or are all just born so? "Sixty Days in the bastile for contempt, unless your case is withdrawn," said Judge Humphrey to James Hamilton Lewis, and while Lewis withdrew, Judge Humphrey is in the limelight of the north end of a horse going south. Pneumonia, according to Dr. F. M. Carroll, is raging in Seattle. Well, why would it not? Are not half of the women folk of the city on the streets clad in raiments so thin that they have to walk on the shady side of the street to keep from making a public exposure? C. S. Mellen, a well known railroad magnate, swears eternal vengeance against the president because the latter wants the people to have a square deal. One of these days men like Mellen will measure hemp with the people at one end and they at the other. D. R. Thompson of Bogota, Arizona, who claims to be at the head of a Black movement, which wants the Negroes of this country deported to Congo Free State, must be the owner of that famous colt that swam the river to get a drink, better known as "Thompson's colt." 1. Ridiculing every move the city council makes looking forward to submitting the question of Seattle owning its own street railway system, an anti-election pledge on the part of the Times, the mouthpiece of the S. E. C., plainly shows that that company has money to burn and is using it to dig its own grave. Jeff Davis' advent in the United States senate should be the signal for that well known ass from South Carolina to set up a bray equal to the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, owing to the fact that an ass with a bigger mouth and with one more eye than he has is to not only divide honors with him, but perhaps become the star ass of the senate. Theodore Roosevelt desires when re retires from the presidency of the United States to at once assume the duties of a United States senator from New York. The ever restless Roosevelt! What a blessing his lot has fallen in pleasant places or he might have been as strong a breaker of the law as he is now a defender of it. After traveling extensively through the South and making a careful study of the racial conditions between the whites and the blacks, Jerome K. Jerome gave out the following statement for publication at Greensboro, N. C., a few days ago: "I believe that three generations hence will witness social equality between the white and black races in the South. The future will no longer know the black man, as I predict there will eventually be an amalgamation of the white and colored races, due to the low moral code of ethics that now prevails.' The "social equality" of white men and colored women here in the South has staggered me as well as the thousands of light colored children whose fathers are white men." What else can be the outcome of the wholesale illicit relations between white men and black women? Already the North is flooded with mixed bloods from the South passing for pure whites. Yea, some of the men are being sent to the United States Congress. A hundred years from now and the Negro as he is now classed in this country will be extinct. NOT FIGHTING SMITH. The impression seems to have gotten out that the Tribune was fighting Senator Smith, in its advocacy of the nomination of B. H. Morgan for Mr. Morgan's place. The Tribune has no fight against Senator Smith. It believes that B. H. Morgan would better represent the 49th legislative district in the State senate than would Mr. Smith. It is simply a comparison of the work of the two men. Both have been at Olympia two sessions. Both had the same opportunity to show their abilities; and the two records stand. The Tribune believes that Mr. Morgan is the strongest man of the two, and should go back in Mr. Smith's place. That's all there is to it. The suggestion of outside influence coming into the country to "punish" Mr. Smith, or "reward" Mr. Morgan, is simply "rot," the pipe dream of Democratic irresponsibles.—Snohomish Tribune. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN THE DEPTHS OF MINES. "Among miners the general opinion is that it is possible to go to great depths below the surface of the earth; the development of a shaft as deep as 9,000 feet is not considered impossible, and the only difficulty is thought to be the perfection of machinery to bring up the mined product. But if we look at this question carefully we come to the conclusion that it is absolutely impossible to work at a depth of 9,000 feet, not because of the difficulty in disposing of the mined product, but for two other reasons. First, breathing would be impossible because of the air pressure, and second, the great heat could not be tolerated; there are now several mines of much less depth than 9,000 feet in which the workmen can only remain ten minutes at a time, and then they must be relieved by other shifts. Indeed, it is quite possible to calculate beforehand the effect which would be produced by a mine of 9,000 feet in depth. THE BLACK LIST. And if you are so selfish in a suburb Philadelphia As to mention Gas, they'll surely murder you. You can't talk Frenzied Finance down in Boston, For it makes the shade of Emerson quite ill; And in Jersey's little nation if you mention "Corporation." It's wrong to say "Divorce" in South Dakota, Because it gets upon the people's nerves, And in Utah if you scare 'em with the mention of a harem, You'll receive what your temerity deserves. To speak of rattlesnakes in Arizona Embarrasses the natives half to death, FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 1906. And among Chicago's pikers if you mention strikes or strikers, They will say improper things beneath their breath. If you flatter Booker Washington in Georgia, You had better take insurance on your life, And you're mighty, mighty lucky, if the subject in Kentucky Leaves enough of you to ship home to your wife. If you whoop it up for Standard Oil in Kansas, You had better go in hiding for a week, And it's reckless, mad bravado to say "Trust" in Colorado, Where the natives like to shoot before they speak. And the bones are creaking merrily of late; But the moral gleaned thereof is: if you're hunting for an office, You had better suit your speeches to your state. VOCABULARY UP TO DATE.

Last week Tuskegee Institute celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary with a string of notable visitors which of itself testified to the success of the institution. They included Secretary Taft, President Eliot of Harvard, Dr. Lyman Abbott, Robert C. Ogden, Andrew Carnegie, and a score of other representative Americans. Twenty-five years ago the institute opened with one teacher, thirty pupils, no land or buildings except an old shanty and a dilapidated church loaned by colored people, a blind mule as the only piece of live stock, and a grant of $2,000 a year by the Alabama legislature as the only tangible asset. The story of what the quarter century has brought forth is told by Booker T. Washington in the World's Work: "At the close of the school year last May it owned 2,000 acres of land, 83 buildings, large and small, used as dwellings, dormitories, class-rooms, shops, and barns, which, together with the equipment, live-stock, stock in trade, and other personal property, were valued at about $831,895.32. This does not include 22,000 acres of public land remaining unsold from the 25,000 granted by congress valued at $135,000, nor the endowment fund, which amounted January 1, 1906, to $1,275,-664. During the year 1904-5, there were enrolled in the regular normal and industrial departments, 1,504 students—1,000 young men and 504 young women—with an average attendance of 1,224. This number does not include the 194 in the training-school, or children's house, nor the 56 in the night schools of the village of Greenwood and of the town of Tuskegee, nor the 25 in the night school Bible classes, nor the 11 in the afternoon cooking classes in the town of Tuskegee. If these latter were included, the total number of students during the year would be 1,790. Last year there were thirty-seven industries in operation in which students were given training." An investigation into the subsequent records of the 888 full-fledged graduates and the six thousand part-time students was made last spring. "Six thousand students have come for a longer or shorter time under the influence of the institution during the twenty-five years of its existence. So far as I have been able to ascertain, not one of the graduates has been convicted of a crime and less than ten per cent are failures in the occupations which they have adopted. There is an increasing demand all over the South for their services. One great reason why so many of the students who enter fail to finish their course is that their earning capacity is increased to such an extent—on an average, 300 per cent at the end of the full course—by a few months or years at study, that they yield to the temptation to go to work at the increased salary and do not return to complete their course at the school. On the other hand, we have sought by every means possible to keep alive in the students who have gone from Tuskegee the spirit and tradition of the school. We have sought to impress upon them the importance of making themselves an example for the other members of their race. "In conclusion, I might add that the school THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN at Tuskegee has been a source of strength and encouragement to the colored people of this country, because it has been from the first a distinctly Negro school founded and conducted, in the main, by members of the Negro race. Its teachers and all of its active officers have been Negroes. It has been a service to the Negro race, also, in so far as it has given an opportunity to so large a number of exceptional Negro men and women to hold positions of such high responsibility and at the same time to be of such genuine service to members of their own race and to the nation." In another article, in the April North American Review, Mr. Washington points out the fact that the Negro, by his own self-help, made Tuskegee what it is after the white man gave him the chance of self-help. The idea of self-help is the Tuskegee idea and it is being carried out in many movements which the institute and its graduates have initiated. Among them are: "1 Mothers' meetings, conducted by Mrs. Washington; 2 visits of teachers and students to communities distant from the school; 3 local Negro conferences, which meet once a month in various sections of the South; 4 the annual Negro conference, which brings together at Tuskegee Institute every year from 1,200 to 1,400 representatives from various sections of the South, to spend a day in discussing the conditions and needs of the race; 5 the worker's conference, composed of officers and teachers of the leading schools for Negroes, which meets at Tuskegee the day after the annual Negro conference; 6 the County Farmers' Institute, together with the Farmers' Winter Short Course in Agriculture, and the county fair held in the fall; 7 the National Negro Business League, which seeks to do for the race as a whole what the local business leagues are doing for the communities in which they exist."—Public Opinion. THE MOSLEM MENACE. Mohammedanism is increasing by leaps and bonds. Not long ago the Soudan United Mission asked all Christians in Great Britain and Ireland to aid in checking the spread of Mohammedanism in the protectorate of Northern Nigeria. Says the London Pall Mall Gazette: "The Negroes there number at least ten millions. Until late years the territory was closed, and now, when it has become safe, under British rule, Moslem traders and missionaries, full of enegry and zeal for the faith, are pressing in so fast that it seems likely they may convert the whole population in no long time. Most of us hear so little of the Mohammedan creed that we are apt to forget its importance in the world. But its devotees number a fifth part of the human race, and they multiply fast. The proportion of Moslems in China was imperceptible fifty years ago; now they are seen in all parts. The Moslems not only increase in number, but in zeal. The change is specially striking in Malay lands. One might suppose that young men studying at Christian colleges and universities, no inconsiderable number at the present time, would be shaken in their faith.

Building, Seattle --- --- THE UNION SAVINGS TRUST COMPANY OF SEATTLE IN THE UNION THERE IS STRENGTH POLITICAL POT-PIE Hon. Fred C. Harper has been named by President Roosevelt for collector of customs at the port of Pt. Townsend, to succeed Hon. Clarence W. Ide, whose term expires next June. Mr. Harper is well and favorably known throughout the Northwest, and the Pie-maker predicts a splendid administration of affairs during his incumbency of the office. He was a candidate for the same office eight years ago, but not receiving the necessary endorsement, failed of appointment. He for years was a citizen of San Juan county and for four years represented the senatorial district in which it is located in the state senate. * * * Believing that the city council, which, to a man, was of a different political faith from himself, had made up its mind to not confirm any Democrats he might name for positions under his administration, is doubtless why Mayor Moore named Capt. Spaulding, a lifelong Republican, for port warden, instead of Capt. Jensen, but, if Madame Rumor can be believed, Capt. Jensen's friends in the council decided to have no one for the position but Jensen, and so Spaulding's confirmation has been adversely reported and it's now up to the entire council to either accept or reject the report of the committee. In all cities where the mayor is of one political faith and a majority of the council is of another, such clases are common, and when the council is unanimously Republican and the mayor Democratic, and the charter is so worded that the council can maintain a fellow Republican in office in spite of the mayor, nothing short of doing so need be expected. * * * It is currently reported that a majority of the members of the council signed an iron-clad agreement to confirm no Democrat nominated by Mayor Moore and to confirm no one for port warden except Capt. Jensen. If the members signed such an agreement they should live up to it, if it takes a right arm off; but the Pie-maker truly hopes they did no such thing, and if they did, for the good of the Republican party, since the mayor has named a Republican for the place, Capt. Jensen should be withdrawn from the race and permit Capt. Spaulding to be confirmed. It is said of Capt. Spaulding that he is a life-long Republican, and actually worked for the election of John Riplinger with all his might. Of course, William Hickman Moore was elected mayor of Seattle by Republicans, and if he wants to recognize that fact by appointing Republicans to the vacancies that will occur from time to time while he is mayor, the Republican councilmen should confirm them if there is nothing against their characters. *** Speaking about Capt. Spaulding and his confirmation reminds the Pie-maker that a part of the members of the Grand Army of the Republic is very much exercised lest he is not confirmed, and are bringing every political pressure possible to assist them in their efforts in his behalf, even going so far as to threaten the party if he is turned down. That the Pie-maker does not consider good politics. The Republican party as a whole THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN should not be held responsible for what a few of its members do, however hurtful to the party it may be. The men to be elected next fall and two years therefrom doubtless have no more sympathy for the acts of the city council than do the G. A. Rs. If the G. A. R. men have been done an injustice by the members of the present council, let them bottle up their wrath and indignation and save it for those persons who did the act when they come up for re-election some time in the future. To want to blast a whole party for the acts of a few individuals should not appeal to any body or class of men. \* \* \* The statute of the State of Washington provides for municipal ownership of street car lines and other public utilities. Bonds are payable out of the income of the systems. There is no general mortgage upon the property of the city, but the public utility system is mortgaged and the bonds are payable out of the income of that system. The Cedar river water system was constructed under the statute providing for cities building their own public utilities, and the proposition is to construct street car lines under the same general statute. When the lines are constructed the income from the system will be used to pay off the indebtedness the same as is done in the Cedar river water system. All of the statements printed in the newspapers to the effect that all of the property of the city will be mortgaged is done for the purpose of influencing the citizens in their voting and misleading them. The writers know that such is not the fact, but they prefer to write falsehoods, thinking by this means to influence the votes of the citizens. They will find in the long run that it will not pay, because the voters will learn before the time that the statements are false. The supreme court of this state in a recent case of the State on the Relation of Port Townsend vs. Claussen, State Auditor, decided that bonds issued under the special statute for the construction of public works to be paid for out of the income of the system was not a general debt of the city and did not become a lien upon any property of the city other than the water works system. The municipal ownership of the new street car lines will not become a general debt of the city. The people have all to gain and nothing to lose, and if there is any profit in the owning and operating of street car lines, that profit will belong to the people. Senator Ankeny is having a hard time in holding his support together. This is because he is backed by politicians, working for what there is in it, and not by the people working because they love and honor him. Colfax Commoner. FRIDAY. APRIL 20. 1906 THE PASSING THRONG Disaster tells the tale of the earthquake shock and conflagration that visited San Francisco last Wednesday. Death and destruction were never so severe visitants on a United States city or community as were they in the Golden Gate city last Wednesday morning, and the prophetic saying, "In the midst of life we are in death," was never more forcibly brought face to face to us on the Pacific Coast than this most lamentable catastrophe that has befallen a sister seaport city. While it is estimated that not less than 1,000 lives were lost in San Francisco and prpoerty valued at $200,000,000, and astounding as these figures may seem to be, yet the actual number of lives lost and the actual value of the property destroyed can never be accurately told. It was the severest earthquake ever felt in the United States and fully a million times more destructive. Following, as it does, so close to the Mount Vesuvius catastrophe, it begins to look as if this is to be a year of gigantic calamities. San Francisco was by odds the most handsomely built city on the Pacific Coast, and by far the wealthiest, and yet today it is but a charred wreck of ruins, with thousands of homeless as well as businessless people wandering aimlessly about her streets, striving to find something which they once boasted of throughout the length and breadth of the Union. Man may plan, but the Maker in His allwise judgment not only disappoints, but even destroys, and it is man's to reason why. Conservative Journalism in comparison to yellow journalism never showed off to a better advantage to the former than when the news of the San Francisco horror flashed over the wires and the yellow journalist began to issue "special editions" every thirty minutes. The yellow journalist saw in that awful catastrophe where human lives by the hundreds and property by the millions of dollars' worth were lost, a most excellent opportunity to make a piece of money. So men and boys by the scores were employed to scamper up and down the principal streets and even to the suburbs, excitedly screaming of the disaster and offering their extras for sale, in the suburbs charging as high as 15 cents per copy. The first extra told almost as much about the disaster as did the twenty-fifth. Persons bought extra after extra, to find in each one not to exceed more than a three-line bulletin in the last over the former. In order to make a dollar the yellow journalist, from editor to newsboy, grossly deceived the people. The boys in order to get theirs shouted at the top of their voices and ran with all their speed wherever they saw persons talking together, and thereby excited and intimidated persons into buying something which was a lie on its face. Conservative journalism came along at the proper time and told the facts about what had happened, giving a brief history of the city, and, in short, was a complete educator within itself. Let us hope the time will come when the citizens of the United States will not be so money-mad as to be ready and willing to trample over dead men in order FRIDAY. APRIL 20. 1906 to drive a sharp bargain, because it will bring a few extra dollars to their tills. The person who thinks the yellow journal is progressive and up-to-date has no conception of the terms, and only thinks that it is because it makes money by questionable means, as he himself either is doing or is hoping to do. The Frye building is filling up very slowly with tenants. No man likes to open up for business in a place that he knows will not be entered by any union man.—Union Record. If everything the Union Record says is as far from the truth as the above statement, then that paper is notable for the falsehoods it publishes. The Frye building it refers to has been rented from garret to cellar and if it contained as much again space as it does judging from the number of applicants for space, all of it could have been rented. Not, however, because it was constructed by non-union help, but because the public that is looking for business locations do not care a whoop in hotentot what kind of class of workmen did the work on the building just so the building and its apartments meet their ideas. What Kind of Drink?—The money spent in Germany on drink is three times the cost of the army and navy together, and more than seven times the cost of their primary education. Its amount is almost equal to that of the German national debt, and so the German people, by leaving off drink for a year and a month, could pay off the whole debt.—Ex. What kind of drink do you refer to? If the amount spent for drink includes tea, oceeef and milk your article is silly. If it refers to alcoholic drinks only then no more of it is consumed than the other drinks and so if the German people would leave off the tea, coffee or milk drinking habit for a year and apply the saving to the national debt it would be wiped out and the same could be said of meat. Neither of these are essential to life any more so than beer, a German drink. The human family spends its money as it sees fit and that too without dictation from the other fellow. If on the other hand alcoholic drinks are detrimental to the human family stop the manufacture of the same. That Seattle is a great town every one that has lived here for at least five years will bear swift testimony to. You are acquainted with a business man this year and the next year he drops out of sight and no one seems to know what has become of him, another year will elapse and he will perhaps show up on the streets and inform you that he has returned from some Eureka of wealth where fortune was more favorable than while here and he has the "goods" to show for itself to substantiate what he says. These adventurers never fail to return to Seattle when they "hit it rich" and the grin they wear when they show up at the haunts of his gang is broad and bright enough to act as a headlight for a Mississippi steamer and their old cronies are equally pleased to greet them and give them an old fashioned good time. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN George Halloway Returns. None of the once familiar figures about Seattle was more cordially greeted by the gang than was George M. Halloway, once a prominent business man in Seattle and twice elected county clerk of King county, who last Monday returned from a year's stay at Goldfield, Nevada, where, it is said, he retrieved his lost fortunes and he does not deny the allegation. He has done little else but shake hands with the boys all the week and it is remarkable how pleased his former acquaintances seem over the fact that he is financially out of the woods again. George loves the game of politics and should he decide again to taken up his residence in Seattle, The Seattle Republican would not be surprised if he did not call for a stack of blues at the very next political game. It's So Amusing that it is absolutely ridiculous to hear of some of the members of the police force of Seattle having refused to work with J. S. People, the only admitted Negro on the force on account of his nationality. We have heard of the pot calling the kettle black but for the nationalities serving on the Seattle police force to refuse to affiliate in an official capacity with even a baboon seems a hundred times more absurd than the pot calling the kettle black. The Seattle Republican has fifty ($50.00) dollars to donate to charity if those policemen who refused to work with Peoples will donate a similar sum, that if in a fair and impartial examination Peoples, the Negro policeman, does not show more genuine educational qualifications than all of the members of the force combined, not excepting the acting chief, or if Peoples' gentlemanly deportment does not rank above them all; or that after he has served one or two years that his standing in the community for honesty and integrity does not discount that of any other officer on the force. The above should be a good deal to say, but money talks and it is therefore up to you to put up or shut up. Tree Planting. Dr. Heinrich C. Leonhardt, of Tonawanda, recently supplied almost the whole city with young trees, says Country Life in America. At a dinner which he attended he heard the suggestion made that the city needed shade trees. Immediately he bought thousands of young elm, maple and chestnut trees, and as soon as it was possible had them shipped to Tonawanda and stored in a nursery there. Then he announced that all who would might have trees by applying at the nursery. The effect was wonderful. Streets that never would have had trees were soon filled with flourishing young saplings that in twenty years will be priceless—a magnificent monument to one man. Two thousand of the trees were distributed in an incredibly short time. There was more tree planting in Tonawanda this spring than ever before. The only condition attached to the offer was that persons taking trees should guarantee to plant them for shade purposes and to plant them in accordance with directions given at the nursery. Respectfully referred to the citizens or city government of Seattle through Mr. Conant. IMPORTER Ladies' Fine Millinery, Cloaks, Suits, Waists, Children's and Infant's Wear J. S. GRAHAM 714-720 Second Ave. The Sunday Forum will listen to an address from Senator John L. Wilson, chief owner of the Post-Intelligencer, next Sunday, April 22nd, at 3:45 o'clock p. m. at Lee's Chapel, 1520 Fifteenth avenue, near Madison, and a cordial invitation is extended to the general public to be present. "What of the Future of the Negro in the United States?" will be the theme on which the senator will discourse and in view of the fact that the subject is one over which the general public in the United States seems more or less exercised at the present, what he will say on the subject will be listened to with rapt attention. While the black man like the white man and all other colors of man must be the architect of his own fortune yet in the United States there are conditions on which a successful future for him are concerned and those conditions for the most part are dependent on men of the whites who are prominent in the shaping of the destinies of our land and country. The Negro no longer wishes to hear rehearsed the story of his emancipation, but he does want to know how he can best live down the degradation that the years of slavery brought upon him and if he does his part then what will be the attitude of the other fellow. Attorney A. R. Black is to be congratulated on his success in the U. S. Court before Judge Hanford. Three convicts at McNeil's Island, who had been convicted on three counts and sentenced to serve two years on each count, conceived the idea after they had served one that they had no legal right to serve the other four years and they therefore employed Mr. Black to bring their case before the court on a habeas corpus. Both Mr. Black and the U. S. District Attorney, Jesse A. Frye, filed well prepared briefs in the case and finally argued the case before the judge, which he took under consideration. He gave an opinion on it last week and held with Mr. Black's contention, which means the release of the three men. The above case is cited solely to show the legal victory Mr. Black has won over one of the ablest attorneys in the Northwest. We are under obligations to Judge Joseph Shipping, who is touring the South, for newspapers and publications of that section. The last were sent from Ashville, N. C., and to say the least they were queerly constructed contrivances and the matter therein even more so. Have You Thought About Your Spring Hat? If you would get what you want, go to E. N.

The members of the Afro-American Realty and Investment Company are to be congratulated on the opening of their new hall. The exercises were interesting and the occasion a most pleasing one. Amid all of the investment and co-operative companies that have been formed, organized and incorporated in the West this is the first to get far enough from the starting point to make any kind of showing. Messrs. P. A. DeBow and W. C. People have nourished and nursed the organization from its first inception to its present state, and they are deserving of much credit for their stictoitiveness. The hall is now open for business and should be patronized. People have not been long in discovering that the company now playing at the Third Avenue theatre is an even balanced and competent one. Their performance of "A Devil's Lane" there this week has drawn full houses at every performance since it opened. The cast contains Eva Earle French, Charles R. Allen, Susie Howard, Claudia Colonna and other well known professional people who will remain there for the next two weeks. They give their last performance of "A Devil's Lane" Saturday night. Next week the Third Avenue theatre will have a play that ought to and will doubtless excite more than ordinary interest. The title is "Ruined Lives." It is a powerful melo-drama containing all the elements that makes this the most popular form of entertainment. All the members of the present company at the up-town theatre with the addition of several well known actors will assure the patrons of the Third Avenue theatre that they are going to get something unusually The Hobart M. Cable PIANO We live in an age of inspiring progress—progress of education, progress of invention, progress of fine art creation. The scholarly and ambitious man is ever striving to surpass his fellowman by some scientific, artistic or mechanical achievement. Among no class of men is the striving for prominence more determined and vigorous than among the piano makers. The most notable triumph in the musical world in the last decade is the production of the HOBART M. CABLE PIANO. Not since the first piano was made has any maker, right from the start, struck the golden mind at every point so successfully as this notable manufacturer has done in the piano bearing his individual name. Built by the most skillful piano makers on scientific methods exclusively its own and out of the finest materials markets will afford regardless of cost. It challenge comparison and invites the inspection and admiration of all intelligent piano people. For sale only by D. S. JOHNSTON CO. $63 Second Ave. Burke Buldg. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN good for the scenes of the play are laid in Seattle and the company will handle the characters with so much ability that "Ruined Lives" is likely to be remembered. "The Heir to the Hoorah" is to play a special return engagement of one night at the Seattle theatre next Sunday. Seats are now selling. THE LEE MORRIS COMPANY. Next Monday night the Lee Morris Company is to open at the Seattle theatre in "The Princess of Patches." "The Princess of Patches" and "Roanoke" will be the offerings. "The Princess of Patches," which has never been seen here, has been meeting with phenomenal success everywhere presented. "Roanoke" is a romance of the South, the scenes being laid in the state of Virginia, and the characters portrayed are all true to life, simple, beautiful and never overdrawn. It is a play dear to the hearts of everyone. WE ARE HARD TO SATISFY. We are hard to satisfy, Lovers of the new and strange, That is why the flowers die, That is why the seasons change— To appease the restless eye Seasons change and flowers die. In the tumult of the sea, Beating on the rocky shelves, In the storm's mad revelry There's an echo of ourselves— In the tumult of the sea And the storm's mad revelry. If the rose should never fade Half its charms were lost indeed; If the lily ne'er decayed We would rank it as a weed; Glorious Spring were cold and staid If the flowers did never fade. To the shortness of its stay Summer owes its greatest charm, To the empty winter day Balmy breeze and sunbeams warm; All its freshness the sweet May Owes to winter cold and grey. On the mountain's rugged crest There is motion, pulse and change, There is nought that knoweth rest In the city, on the grange— Lest it chide man's troubled breast There is nought that knoweth rest.
