After all, this seems to be a rather odd year, which accounts for the unusually large crop of prophets and predicters of supernatural occurrences.

He is defying the "high-toned" criminals, and the people love him for it. "Every rose has its thorn," is an old addage. One of the railroad commissioner jobs was a lovely rose, in the sight of John S. McMillin, but it has brought him troubles at home that he little dreamed of, and we suspect has killed off his senatorial boomlet. Shooting a citizen by a deputy sheriff in order to serve civil papers on him is, after all, something "new under the sun." Such a thing did not quite happen in Seattle. but that the citizen is not now in some morgue or hospital is due to the fact that the deputy was a poor shot. Mayor Moore vetoed the Cayton graft bill. Not, however, because the city did not get value received from the Seattle Republican, and then some, but because there was a loop-hole whereby the city could avoid paying the bill; for if it had have paid the $150.00 there might have been danger of her defaulting on some of her outstanding indebtedness. Americans do not seem to be stuck on government jobs in the Philippines, especially the Anglo-Saxons. There are hundreds and thousands of young Negroes in this country well educated who would make ideal clerks, but who are compelled to do all kinds of menial work on account of race prejudice. Why not send them over there to fill the positions? Capital punishment is wrong in theory, wrong in practice, wrong in principle and finally serves no good purpose to anyone as no one is made better by its enforcement. The hanging of Armstrong in the state penitentiary at Walla Walla one day last week was, to our mind, one of the most barbrous acts that has been committed in this sections since it was ruled over by savage Indians. --- --- VOL.

He seems to have tired of a daily bath; and who could blame him? Jumping Jehosephat rs want more money for their milk;” and if they get it then the consumers will have to pay a pretty stiff price for the water they use. The 'blind pigs' that root about the city parks have been repeatedly killed off, but the industrious hunter can always find good shooting among them if he or she knows the ropes. Tacoma's mayor announced with tinkling cymbals and sounding brass that he favored reform; but he crawfished when it was put up to him to practice what he had preached. The Socialists may be the last to come under the rope in the wind-up, but they have gotten a good start, having already nominated their state candidates for the fall election. Bryan, as the Democratic candidate for president in 1908, would give Fairbanks or any other trust candidate more than he bargained for. Yea, truly, Bryan would be the next president of the United States. Now, that the Prophet Samuel Franklin Rathburn is on the Sound again, we suggest that he get busy and see to it that the early summer weather he promised is delivered at once, if not sooner, or it will have to be used the coming winter. PRICE TEN CENTS. Let Supt. Youngs jump for joy! All indications point to the rainy season continuing on through the dry season; in which case there will be an overabundance of Cedar river water to run to waste. The packinghouse criminals and their side-partners, the cattlemen, are much exorcised over the $150,000,000.00 this country will lose on account of the president's packinghouse agitation. Totally indifferent are they of the wholesale murder they commit, just so they get the money. If an attorney-at-law should advise a murderer not to talk, lest he convict himself of a crime, when the attorney-at-law was morally certain, yea, actually knew, that the person had committed the crime of murder, said attorney-at-law, in our opinion, is guilty of murder after the fact the same as the culprit. Attorneys-at-law who condone, aid and abet crime by the use of sharp practices in having criminals escape punishment and again turned at large among law-abiding citizens are more dangerous criminals than the fellow who commits the actual acts of outlawry. There is nothing so sweet as vindication, and General Miles should be comparatively happy during these disclosures of the methods pursued by the beef packers. His embalmed beef charges are proven to the satisfaction of all men.—Bellingham Revelle. Peter Hillen, who recently returned to this country from a visit to his old home in Germany, says, "though the Protestants are largely in the majority in Germany, yet the Catholics are represented in government places of trust out of proportion to their population." Well, Peter, if you will just open your eyes and look about you, the same conditions you will discover prevail in the United States. It is just a way the Catholics have of getting all the offices they can, and then some. Editor Wells, of the Seattle Star, who, one day this week, returned from a visit to San Francisco, says the very sight of the city is sickening; that for miles desolation without a sign of life let alone activity, is to be seen. "The city may build up, but I certainly cannot believe it," said Mr. Wells. "One cannot imagine how bad it really is; nothing but the actual sight of miles of ruins will give you the remotest idea of the present condition of what was formerly Beautiful San Francisco—the Golden Gate. Perhaps outside capital will re-invest there, but I hardly believe it." --- Mr. F. D. Coburn, secretary of the Kansas board of agriculture, can sit at his desk at the capital building at Topeka and tell any visitor the acreage, the productivity and the improvements of every farm in the state. This is possible because a farm census is taken every ten years under his direction. A practical and successful farmer himself, Mr. Coburn determined when he became secretary that the best way to help the Kansas farmers was to find out what they were doing. But taking a farm census in an agricultural state like Kansas is a very difficult thing. The farms are often ten miles apart. Mr. Coburn set about the task systematically. He got the legislature to enact a farm census law, making every county clerk responsible for the gathering of census information in his county. He prepared a series of blanks to be taken by the canvassers to the farm. These blanks were adaptable to every kind of farm. When filled out, they state not only the acreage of the farm, but the number and kind of buildings on it; the live stock and poultry; miles of fence, number of hands, and the usual personal information about the farmer's family and employees. But the reports tell more than this. They show the quantity of corn, wheat or alfalfa raised; how the soil has been treated; how the crop has been developed, and the prices obtained. The farmers joined heartily in the plan. They saw that Mr.Coburn and the state were in earnest. Mr. Coburn compiles all the reports into a compact volume, copies of which are distributed throughout the state. From it the wheat grower in Southern Kans finds sometimes that the wheat grower in Centra Kansas with the same acreage and the same kind of soil raises more wheat than he does, but the census shows how the soil is treated and the helpful information thus obtained is used to increase the crops. Agsin, the statistics of the success of one kind of crop in a certain locality often leads farmers in other sections to grow this crop. Everywhere the reports have stimulated agriculture. Whole farming communities have been developed and made richer by the influx of farmers who have read the census returns. These reports, too, have the effect of keeping the Kansas boys on the farm. They read about large returns from steady crops, and the city has no temptation for them. The Kansas farm reports are used in nearly every state and in many foreign countries. They are discussed in a dozen agricultural colleges. They have formed to a large degree the basis of Mr. Coburn's agricultural books that have a worldwide reading. For example, he wrote a book called "The Helpful Hen," based on what the hen had done for the Kansas farmers, which has become one of the most widely quoted works on the subject. The farm facts collected under Mr. Coburn's direction are in the libraries of nearly every capital in the world. They have had a significance for agriculturists the world over. But the census has another value. Not long ago a man came into Mr. Coburn's office and asked for the census report on a farm in Reno county. "But why do you want the information?" asked Mr. Coburn. "Because," replied the man, "this farm is involved in a lawsuit and we must find out the acreage and the productivity five years ago." The report was found, and it contained every fact desired. The information thus secured affected the issue of the litigation. Thus the man, by a practical plan, successfully THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN operated, has benefited all the people of a whole state.—World's Work, June, 1905. The following June(1906), Mr. Coburn was appointed United States senator by Gov. Hoch, to succeed J. R. Burton, resigned, which was a complete surprise to the politicians all over th state. It was the record he had made in the agricultural department that inspired his appointment, which is another proof that it pays to do well any and everything you undertake. Mr. Coburn himself had no more idea of ever reaching the United States senate as one of the representatives from Kansas than he did of being president of the United States, and never worked to that end. He did, however, take a keen interest in the work he was engaged in, and so singular was his success in it that it brought him not only national, but international fame, and in the United States senate he will be of more real and actual value to the state of Kansas than a John J. Ingalls with all of his eloquence and oratory. The person who can do something better than anyone else is always invaluable, and his or her ability will sooner or later be recognized. Turns Down Senatorship F. D. Coburn has the distinction of being one man in the country who will not give up a modest station in life o a seat in the United States senate. Gov. Hoch, of Kansas, gave him the opportunity of filling out the unexpired term of Senator Burton and his explanations of the reasons which impells him to decline the proffered honor are interesting and at the same time show that there is one man who cannot be taken off his feet by the allurements of a political position, though it be one of the highest in the land. Mr. Coburn says: "As was my duty, I have carefully deliberated upon every respect of the situation, and acting upon my knowledge of it and of myself, rather than the urgency of yourself and many friends, mutual and otherwise, I can reach no conclusion except the one indicated from the first, namely, that I must not accept. "I am extremely fond of the work and the position with which the people of Kansas have intrusted me for so many years, and if continued in their service at all, no other can be so acceptable. "There are many reasons, entirely clear to me, but needless to enumerate, why I should not accept the senatorship, and one, all-sufficient is, that doing so must inevitably involve me in political activity and combinations, if not factional strife, directly on account of myself or indirectly on account of others, for which I am without inclination, aptitude or strength."—Spokesman-Review.

This body consists of 42 members, Crocker's 21 of them being selected Story of it every two years. The senators whose terms have ex Crocker's Story of it THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is hardly probable that he could win again. Dickson is a strong man, and as Kittitas has three moreotes than Chelan in the convention it is practically a cinch that Ellensburg will name the next senator from the 13th. Ira Englehart may be a candidate to succeed Walter J. Reed, of the 15th. Englehart is one of the best lawyers in the state. John T. Welsh, of the 19th, is a candidate to succeed himself. Pitted against him will be J. G. Megler, of Wahkiakum. Senator Welsh hails from Pacific, which will have 11 in the convention to six for Wahkiakum. It is not a violent prophesy to say that Welsh will succeed himself. Jack O'Donnell, from the 21st, hailing from Elma, Chehalis county, is going to be pocketed by Edmund Burke Benn, from Aberdeen, on the one side, and Geo. L. Davis, from Hoquiam, on the other. O'Donnell weakened himself in the last session by voting for Wilson. Cyrus F. Clapp, of the 24th, has removed from Jefferson to King. Dr. Le Crone, of the 29th, is again in the race with but little chance of success. Jesse Shattuck Jones is the leading candidate in this district. W. E. Bronson, of the 26th, is not a candidate and will be suceceeded by Dr. F. J. Schug. Dr. J. J. Smith, of the 30th, King county, will succeed himself. Likewise A. T. Van De Vanter, of the 31st. O. A. Tucker, of the 32nd, is not a candidate, for the good and sufficient reason that he is politically dead. A. Hemrich, of the 33rd, will succeed himself. His record in the senate is good, and he is a man whom the breath of scandal has not reached. Wm. Hickman Moore, of the 34th, will be succeeded by Jas. Weir, a pioneer citizen of King, a legislator of integrity and a business man of more than ordinary ability. W. G. Potts, of the 35th, will succeed himself. Rinchey M. Kinnear, of the 36th, can succeed himself, though he is trying to get Joe Lyons, his friend, to take the place. Ed. Palmer, of the 37th, is making a last ditch fight to succeed himself, though it is believed that Robert Booth will land the prize, The P.-I. and The Seattle Republican to the contrary, notwithstanding. S. T. Smith, of the 39th, Snohomish, has been challenged for his seat by Ben Morgan, of Snohomish City. Morgan has served in the house with ability. His following of Wilson has been an error of judgment. Emmerson Haumer, of the 40th, Skagit county, should succeed himself easily. He is one of the "old guard," and is an ideal senator. John Earles, of the 42nd, Whatcom, will lose his seat, it is believed, to Chas. I. Roth, who has served in the house with signal ability. The writer has made no studied effort at political prophesying, but has presented the conditions as they seem to exist at this time. Sam Piles, of King, mvst stand by his friends and at the same time demonstrate that he is in control.—The (Tacoma) Forum. Rats. Things political in Chehalis county have already commenced to take definite shape for the fall elections. Offic-seekers are out with the usual "glad hand" and slates galore are being framed. A slate which undoubtedly will be of interest to the county TAKING SHAPE IN CHEHALIS comes from Aberdeen and is a mixture of municipal and county offices, and is as follows: Mayor of Aberdeen, E. B. Benn; county commissioner, Jas. Hood; sheriff, F. R. Archer; state senator, Alex. Polson. Mr. Polson has not signified a willingness to pose as a political aspirant, but, nevertheless, he is slated for the job and will receive the support of the Aberdeen end of the line-up if he will stand for it. Meanwhile, R. J. Hilts, who has always been identified with the above faction, is making a canvass of the county as a candidate for sheriff, and it is wondered where he is going to get off at. Again, one can but wonder if there is anything else $ t_{\mathrm{ho}} $ county has to offer which may be coveted by Mr. Archer. At present he is county assessor, allotting agent, etc., etc. The sheriff's honors will undoubtedly rest easy on his willing shoulders. It is said that Mr. Archer does not deny he is a candidate for sheriff, and it is also said that the Benn faction is secretly working for his nomination.—Washingtonian.

Covrington is a practical printer, and his publication, therefore, is already a thing of beauty, and having the field all to itself it is more than likely that it will be a financial success from the very outset. --- Because the advocates of municipal ownership do not stand on the street corners and agitate the subject day in and day out, the Times, of this city, pronounces it a dead issue, and like Populism, will never be resurrected. The people who are behind the municipal ownership idea are not "agitators," but are doers, and at the proper time they will elect officials of that faith and belief in Seattle from stem to gudgeon. --- But a few day ago the cuts and other paraphenalia of a former publication in this city, known as the Common welath, were sold for fifteen dollars, and a week thereafter the book-keeper and financier of that defunct concern, J. C. ——, committed suicide because he was without funds. The Commonweath, which was conceived in sin and brought forth in deception, finally ran its race, but not until it had given a whole lot of folk a good many heartaches. Leonard Fowler, the founder, got from under it at the proper time, but John W. Jones staid by it until he was dead broke, and then he sold it to the Democratic party and it re-sold the plant to England, who let her go flewy. ```markdown ``` Weekly papers come and weekly papers go in this busy, bustling, business world, and without the passing throng stopping to give the ones who fall by the wayside even a moment's consideration, and precious little more to those being born.

Father Clayson has frittered his life away scolding, scowling and damning the other fellow, and even age does not improve him.

P. T. Barnum said, "the American people love to be humbuged," and he was about "three-thirds" correct. * * * Speaking about humbuging the people reminds the writer of an African Methodist Ebiscopal preacher, Rev. Makiel, who was visiting a brother on a country circuit, away down South. The Rev. Makiel wanted the simple country folk to believe that he was a great Greek and Latin scholar; so one of a series of sermons he preached in Greek and Latin. The people thought him the greatest "edicated" man ever in that neck-o'-woods; but Rev. Makiel almost fell dead on learning the next day that an old college professor was in the audience and heard his Greek and Latin sermon. Rev. Makiel did not know a single word in either language- \*\*\* Rev. Makiel, by the way, was rather an inventive genius, and he worked the deception racket to a queen's taste. After mysteriously disappearing from the South he showed up in the Northwest as Dr. Ma-ki-el, late of Scotland. In an annual conference held in Tacoma while Bishop Lee was preaching the annual sermon, Dr. Makiel was sitting at a table apparently writting with the utmost speed. He told the conference that he was taking the bishop's sermon in short-hand, and the congre- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Savings Bank & ner Second Avenue and Madison S and Surplus, Safe Deposit Vaults Now Open our Fire-Proof Building, are ENTED AT $4.00 PER YEAR.

But the people did not know it. * * * Sometimes, it must be admitted, persons seem forced to practice a bit of decep ion in order to hold their own with their fellow-men. In the Southern states, especially among the Negroes, the school teacher or the preacher who cannot answer any question put to him is not a fit person to teach or preach, and consequently loses his job as soon as he can be gotten rid of. Realizing this a school teacher in South Carolina, who was about to lose his job for general incompetency, though he held a teacher's certificate, as a last effort to get the confidence of his patrons, made them a big speech, and for a peoration he repeatedly repeated the Greek alphabet, which he had learned at school. With open mouths and bulged eyes the teacher was informed that he was the only teacher for them. ** ** Did you ever notice that whenever the average Anglo-Saxon in this country gets into a controversy with an Afro-Ameicann the exceptions taken by the white man to what the black man had said or done is always prefaced by solemnly announcing to the white brethren that, the person about to be arraigned is a Negro, colored man, darkey nigger or coon; which interpreted means, "though what I say may not be germain to the point, or may be totally without merit, yet it being directed against a son of Hara and coming from a son of Abel, every other son of Abel should not only heartily, but uproarously, agree." In other words, to pronounce your antagonist a Negro, wins your case. --- ON Friday, June 15, 1903 Trust Co. reet 300.000 excelled by none E THEM. p. m. P. M. NEGROES GOT THE MONEY The heirs of Samuel Lee, a Negro who contested for a seat in the Forty-seventh congress, were voted $10,40 by congress, May 19, last. Mr. Lee made the contest, and it has always been a custom of the house of representatives of congress to pay the contestant the same salary as the contestee for the full two years, if anything like a decent showing is made, even if he is not seated. For some reason, neither Mr. Lee, and after death his heirs were able until recently to get an allowance for the salary. It finally passed the house, as said above, May 19, by a strict party vote, and with John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, leader of the minority, disputing every move it made toward final passage, but to no avail. It is rather remarkable that, though there are fully ten million Negroes, loyal subjects of Uncle Sam's government, there is not a single representative of the race a member of that body, though it is said there are more than a baker's dozen of the members who have Negro blood in their veins. A San Francisco inventor thinks that telephoning from coast to coast, and in fact to all points of the United States, is only a question of a very short time. It may be but a matter of very short time for it to become possible to talk at such long range, but it will be a long, long time before anyone but trus magnates and railroad attorneys in the United States senate will be able to do so. Pulitzer, who for many years was a journalistic star in New York, but who for the past eleven years has been sojourning in Europe, is again in New York, and threatens to break into the newspaper world in Gotham with an outfit and turnout that will come pretty nearly setting the whole world on fire. Some men seem to have more money than brains, and the above appears to be a striking example of that kind of individual. --- Friday, June 15, 1906 THE BANNER BETSY MADE (Klicitat Enterprise) (The first American flag including the thirtəen stars and stripes was designed by George Washington and made by Mrs. Betsy Ross, a Quaker lady, of Philadelphia.) We have nicknamed it "Old Glory" As it floats upon the breeze, Rich in legend, song and story, On the land and on the seas; Far above the shining river, Over mountain, glen and glade, With a flame that lives forever Streams the banner Betsy made. Once it went from her, its maker, To the glory of the wars, Once the modest little Quaker Deftly studded it with stars; And her fingers, swiftly flying, Through the sunshine and the shade, Welded colors, bright, undying, In the banner Betsy made. When at last her needle rested, And her cherished work was done, Went the banner, love invested, To the camps of Washington, And the glorious Continentals, In the morning light arrayed, Stood in ragged regimentals 'Neath the banner Betsy made. How they cheered'it and its maker, They, the gallant sons of Mars, How they blessed'the little Quaker, And her flag of stripes and stars; 'Neath its folds the foemen scorning, Glinted bayonets and blade, And the breezes of the morning Kissed the banner Betsy made. Years have passed, but still in glory With a pride we love to see, Laureled with'a nation's glory, Waves the emblem of the free; From the rugged pines of Northland To the deep'ning everglade, In he sunny heart of Southland, Floats the banner Betsy made. A protector, all have found it, And beneath it stands no slave. Freemen brave have died around it, On the land and on the wave. In the foremost front of battle. Borne by heroes, not afraid, 'Mid the musket's rapid rattle, Soared the banner Betsy made. Now she sleeps, those fingers flying, With a heart to freedom true, Mingled colors, bright, undying— Fashioned stars and field of blue; It will lack for no defenders, When the nation's foe invade, For our country rose to splendor 'Neath the banner Betsy made. Yesterday, June 14, was designated Flag Day, that is to say, a day for everyone to show their true patriotism by hoisting the Stars and Stripes over or about their residences, places of abode or business. How well it was observed is hard to say, but the idea should be instilled into the minds of the rising generation until it becomes a --- THE SEATTL REPEBLICAN fixed feature throughout the government and the day as anxiously looked forward to as is Decoration Day or the Fourth of July. While the fires of patriotism may not be dying down in the bosoms of the citizens of the United States, yet this is the age of money-making, and in our eagerness to make money many of us may overlook our patriotic duties and thereby permit the fires to die out unawares. Too much coaching, therefore, cannot be indulged in by the older heads along this line that the younger heads may grasp the idea that Old Glory should reign supreme in the hearts of each person under its protecting folds. The name of James A. Moore, the great Seattle promoter, is on the tongues of nations, and all because Congress has passed a bill authorizing him to dig the Lake Washington government canal, connecting the lake with Puget Sound. It is a big undertaking, but Mr. Moore has had big undertakings before, and in every instance he has been a complete success. The success of this canal means still greater accomplishments, for no sooner than it is assured, a gigantic steel plant will be begun near the little town of Kirkland, and the dream of L. 7 S. J. Hunt, at one time the greatest promoter in the Northwest, will be realized, and that, too, without him having fathered it. Mr. Hunt planned to make Kirkland the industrial center of the Puget Sound country, but the fates were against him, and he fell by the wayside. Evidently Mr. Moore thought well of Mr. Hunt's idea and he has taken up the thread where Mr. Hunt was forced to lay it down. James A. Moore has uniquely brought more outside capital to Seattle than any one else and that Seattle Spirit, of which one hears so much, should vote him the medal of honor for having furnished her with the necessary sinews of war, that has given her the most formidable array of Captains of Industry on the Pacific Slope. The bill authorizing Mr. Moore to dig the ditch passed both branches of Congress without a dissenting vote, ran the gauntlet of the war department and was finally signed by the president, and thus signed and sealed was delivered to its master, James A. Moore. AIDA THE WORLD'S FINEST ACTRESS Mr. Clifford C. Hancock was caught in a streetcar-auto jam last Friday and has nursed a badly sprained ankle ever since. Master Paul Teamer is still dangerously ill and it is feared acute consumption has set in. There is quite a demand for Negro caterers in Seattle just now and those in the business have all they can do. Mr. Stone was even called to Tacoma last night. If you know of anyone who thoroughly understands lawn work and the care of flowers such an one can get an insight to an opening by calling at this office. Miss Emma Wilson and Mr. Henry Thomas were married last Tuesday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Turner. The bride was gowned in exquisite white satin, and the wedding march was played by Miss Mabel Turner. A number of personal friends to the couple were present to wish them a bon voyage adown the stream of life. Mrs. Turner served dainty refreshments in a manner that lent further charm to the occasion. The couple received many handsome presents, including cut glass, silverware and many other household valuables. The happy couple are at home to their friends at Twenty-seventh avenue and Madison street. ```markdown ``` AIDA HEIMI PERSONAL Mrs. Sarah Grose and her granddaughter, Miss Carrie Dixon, have returned from California.

SEATTLE BREWING & MALTING CO. SHAKETT / / / WASHINGTON, TELPHONE 340-822-3000 Friday, June 15, 1906 Among The Theatre Folk Next week, starting Sunday afternoon, "The Toilers" is a title of a problem play that will be presented by the Aylesworth Company at the Third Avenue Theatre. The problem in this instance is the differences between capital and labor, and if the play has a tendency in either direction it is toward the getting together of the compotant factors through love; for as usual the heroine is rich and the hero is poor and honest. But there are other things in "The Toilers" aside from the heart-interest; it has an amusing comedy vein all through the play, and almost anyone will be the better for having the problem illustrated as it were, before them in a life-like manner. "Sidewalks of New York" Saturday afternoon and night will be the last chances to see the Mack Swain Theatre Company in the thrilling success, "The World," at the Seattle Theatre. The company has made a big hit in this melodrama. All next week, starting Sunday night, the Swain Company, at the Seattle, will offer a play that is entirely new in this city,—"Sidewalks of New York." As its name would indicate, it is a story of adventurous life in the great metropolis, and as the production will be complete in every detail, all those who attend will be amply repaid. "The Princess Chic" Saturday matinee and night will be the last opportunities for seeing the San Francisco Opera Company in "The Nightengale," at the Grand. That is good enough to draw people over and over again. In fact, it has done so this week. Next week's offering will be equally as c ever. It will be "The Princess Chic," starting Monday night and continuing until the following Sunday. This is the best work of the late Kirke La Shelle, and is noted for its beautiful and picturesque costuming, which Russell & Drew will see is ample and accurate.
