EDITORIAL BRIEFS "How Can Anarchy Be Suppressed?" asks a headline. By suppressing it. "Danger Growing in Russia?" Not much; it is already full grown. Russia is itself danger. The saloon man who opposes drunkenness opposes himself making a living in the saloon business. Councilman Conway's effort to continue Seattle as a bawdy house is only popular among the thieving dive-keepers. "It is a long lane that has no turn," which Editor A. D. Griffin, of the Portland New Age, will now admit as being true. Tide is turning from Brayn," says an exchange. I will turn ag in if he is ever to be voted for for president of these United States. Editor Charley Chamberlain of the Bellingham Reveille has lain down his pen and is now doing the Harriman act in Seattle. Some men will do any old thing. "Corporations on the Rack," says a headline. Yes, and feeding the laymen short measures of bad hay. On the ground and under foot is where they ought to be. Woman Suffrage was recently defeated in Oregon, but a majority of the counties "went dry;" thus showing that the Oregon voters had not lost all sense of honor. "Newspapers should use pure English," said the editor of the Louisiana Planter, before the Editorial Association recently in session at Indianapolis. Well, if The Planter should adopt the usage of pure English that paper would soon have darn few readers, as, so far as they could understand, it would be printed in a foreign tongue. --- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, JUNE 22, 1906. In an address delivered in June last by Mr. Charles W. Burrows, of the publishing house of Burrows Brothers, it was stated that Germany publishes 354 books to each million of her population; France 344, and that about the same proportion prevails for Great Britain, Italy, Belgium, Sweeden and Norway. Even Russia publishes 85 books for every million inhabitants, while the United States publishes but 81. Germany beats us more than four to one; Japan three to one, and it is left for us to seek out poor old benighted Spain to find the only one of the civilized countries on the globe that prints fewer books per million inhabitants than do we. And Mr. Burrows does not stand alone in this opinion. Mr. A. Growoll, in an article in the Independent, gives the following figures of the leading countries; Germany, 1902, 29,906; Japan, 1889, 21,255; Russia, 1895, 17,995; France, 1902, 12,199; Italy, 1900, 9,975; The United States, 1902, 7,833; Great Britain, 1702, 7,381. "Idaho has been maligned by labor unionism," said a newspaper representative to the Editorial Association at Indianapolis a few days ago. We do not doubt it, but Idaho's minions of the law adopted means and methods to put Moyer behind the bars in the state of Idaho which would have made the agents of Czar Nicholas hang their heads in everlasting shame. So long as such outrages go unrebuked by the courts of Idaho labor union folk and every other kind of folk have good and sufficient reasons to malign the state, if that be possible. The style of typewriter that Secretary Tom Payne will use when he goes to Washingeon City has not been determined, but dollars to doughnuts he will never use any kind, nor that he will never go to the National Capitol, but will draw the salary until Congress meets again and in the mean time another job in the state will have been found for him. It's only another way, you see, of making the government pay your campaign obligations. Harriman is still bluffing about not coming to Seattle unless he is given the city and the fullness thereof. If the city council, or the citizens either, pay the least attention to such clap-trap, they are "off their whirl," for Harriman is coming to Seattle if he has to stop at Georgetown. But suppose he doesn't come; Seattle would lose no very great things thereby, for there are others beside Harriman. "The third time is a charm," runs an old addage, and remembering that we clearly understand why Billy Buster Bryan smiled all over his face when told tnat he was booked for the next Democratic presidential nomination. But you misinterpret it, Billy. It means that you were slightly beaten the first time; badly beaten the second time, and will not be in it the third time. PRICE TEN CENTS. "Young Billy Bryan is to enter the navy," says a Washington City dispatch. Well, let's see: The old gent was in the regular army. Sooner or later the Bryan family will go down in history as a family of warriors. A million dollars' worth of virgin gold has left Fairbanks for the Seattle assay office. The constant stream of gold that will flow into Seattle for the next three months might prompt some enthusiast to pronounce this Seattle's golden season. Peonage in its most dastardly form has been recently practiced in Missouri by members of the great Smith family. If the authorities should attempt to punish the offenders and the balance of the Smith family should object, it would certainly be a hard proposition. Even in the wilds of East India, according to a recent statement made by young Billy Bryan, the natives know that his father, the immortal William Jennings Bryan, "also ran" for president of the United States. But in that those Indians are no wiser than we. Uncle Sam has two new stars added to his crown by the admission to the Union of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory as one state, and Arizona and New Mexico as another. It will be a good long time before another star is added, but when it is Alaska will be the one. Perhaps J. Ogden Armour is correct in his allegation that, "the president is trying to get square with the packers for the Humphrey decision granting immunity." If so, then he is doing the general public the greatest favor that a president has ever before done. If the late Senator Arthur Pugh Gorman, of Maryland, has gone to heaven, then there are a whole lot of folk in the United States who prefer to go somewhere else when they shall have shuffled off this mortal oil rather than be compelled to associate with such 'po' whit' trash." Hereafter the "opened by mistake" excuse will be a mistake that will cost $200. The postoffice department nas ruled that mail must be looke over before being taken from the postoffice, and that any letters put into your box by mistake must be returned before leaving the office, under a penalty of $20 for failure to do so.—Chenook Observer. Who Will Steele the funds of the Editorial Association the ensuing year is plain to any person living in Seattle after having learned who was elected treasurer of the Association. "IT'S UP TO YOU" "The world's a stage," says some old sage, Life is a hollow sham, Its joys are few—no love is true, No friendship's worth a damn; Just toys of fate, on strings of hate, To nature's tune we dance, We kick and bend, until the end, We haven't got a chance. I'm not of age to be a sage, To wisdom Iv'e no claim; I only know what my books show To be the only game. The joys of life—friends, home and wife— Are spread before our view, If only we will look and see, The rest is up to you. —Written for The Spotlight, ELECTRICITY AS A HOUSEHOLD SERVANT Not only has man utilized electricity in his greatest activities as a manufacturing agent or as a means of transportation, but he has chained down the electric fluid to the more humble but almost equally important task of simplifying the management of his home. An idea of the spread of this use of electricity considerably beyond that possessed by the average housewife is given by H. L. Knowlton in the June number of Cassier's Magazine: "The polishing of tableware, grinding of coffee, chopping of meat, washing of dishes, cleaning and sweeping by motor-driven pneumatic exausters, operation of cuttlery grinders, ventilation of chambers and living rooms, sterilization of drinking water, and operation of chafing dishes, curling irons, and other heaters, are only a few of the things which the presence of electricity in a residence allows." The sewing machine is now driven by an electric motor, whose speed may be regulated at will to suit the difficulty of the stitching done, and a modern electric boiler cooks a medium sized steak with no danger of burning fat at a cost of two cents. For the man of the household an electric cigar lighter is made by which the pressing of a button causes an asbestos plate to grow white hot—and this, by the way, is also made for instilation in automobiles where high wind makes any other form of lighter impossible. Electric radiators are more easily managed than those of the steam variety, and the degree of heat regulated with facility. Those who are confronted with the problem of heating small quantities of water, who have no gas range at hand, as is the case in boarding houses, may avail themselves of a portable contrivance which causes an electric current to circulate through a resisting metal coil. This heats rapidly, and being made of clean polished metal, may be immersed in water which is being heated for any purpose. Finally the "electric hot water bag," mentioned previously in Public Opinion, is not a water bag at all, but it consists of an electric heating element, such as asbestos, through which runs fine metallic strands which grow hot from the current. An outer covering of eiderdown or rubber cloth is provided, which may be removed and washed. In this, as in other household appliances, the advantage lies in the portability and greater facility of management, as any degree of haet may be causeed, from a slight warmth (which never cools off) to a heat too great to be endured by the human body.—Public Opinion. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN UNDER COVER Fraud weaves its purposes best in the dark. Therefore, it is but natural that the concealed poison interests of the patent medicine trade should have taken no open part in the opposition to the Pure Food bill, which, as amended by the Iuterstate Commerce committee of the House of Representatives, calls for the plain labeling of all nostrums as to the amount of alcohol, cocaine, opium or any poisonous substances contained in them. Had the Proprietary Association of America sent its representatives to appear at the regular hearings before the committee, their arguments in behalf of their divine right to poison the public secretly would have appeared in the formal reports. And these arguments do not look pretty in print. A better way was found. The patent medicine clause was referred to a sub-committee, and this sub-committee heard not hearings, but "conferences" with the patent medicine people. The advantage of a "conference" over a hearing, to those who wish to attain their ends quietly, is that no record is kept of the proceedings. Therefore, nothing is preserved of the nostrum logic which proved potent enough to secure an amendment subversive of the basic principle of Pure Food legislation. The sub-committee amendment obviates the necessity of labeling any poisons other than specifically named ones, and of those it permits the secret use of morphine and opium to the full extent of their present employment in the conspicuous "dope" medicines. Furthermore, it practically removes the restriction from alcohol, unlabeled. It seems hardly probable that such a flimsy sham as this should deceive the most guilible when it is presented before the House of Represrntatives. Meantime, "Let the Label Tell" makes a high-sounding slogan for the Pure Food bill, but as voiced by the sub-committee on proprietary medicines there runs through it a strident suggestion of mockery.—Collier. BAITS FOR NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIBERS Mr. Earl Akers, the publisher of a successful newspaper in Kansas, lately made an address before an editorial association and gave forth the following luminous thought: "I have no patience with the publisher that will cheapen his paper in such a manner as to offer premiums to get people to take it. For the most part they are laboring under a false impression that it is circulation that does all the pulling when it comes to getting advertisers interested. Circulation is a very necessary essential, still the class of circulation must be taken into consideration. An honestly earned circulation of 1,000 is worth more to the advertiser than a premium gained circulation of twice that number, because people take the paper for its true worth and not out of charity or good will toward someone who is trying to win a bait thrown out by a publisher. To get an honest circulation one must have a good paper of course." We were so impressed with the truth of Mr. Akers' argument that we decided to withdraw our great gift contest, wherein we offered Puget Sound as a premium to the girl having the largest feet.—Bellingham Reveille.

Common Sense Is a Jewel THE REPUBLICAN Job Printing Department DOES FIRST-CLASS PRINTING AT COMMON SENSE PRICES 'PHONE MAIN 305 OFFICE 8161-2 THIRD AVENUE Ankney it is believed has gotten first blood in the bout for a successor to himself in the United States senate. The Pie-maker is of the opinion that the Sweeney-Ankney bunch controlled the late Spokane convention and that, the holdover state senators nominated last Saturday at Ankney Gets First Blood Ankney Gets First Blood Spokane will, if elected, vote for Levi Ankney or anyone else whom the Sweeney interests may advocate. W. B. Scott, it will be remembered, followed Sweeney into the Piles fold and doubtless was a part of the compact that promised to suport Levi Ankney four years therafter. R. A. Hutchinson is a faithful and devout follower of Levi Ankney, but if the Crocker-Stevenson-Baker bunch start any funuy business toward shifting from Ankney to Crocker he will be heard from. But the convention has given the Ankney folk all the best of the fight. It was a part of the Ankney-Crocker program to defeat at the polls all of the Republican senators in eastern Washington who did not favor them, and Spokane was slated for defeat, but since the convention they find it unnecessary unless it looks to them that there will be too many Republicans in the legislature. The capturing of the Spokane delegation leaves them sufficient lee-way to defeat state senators in other sections of the state they do not favor and being as desperate a gang as ever scuttled a ship or throttled a traveler they will not hesitate at putting into execution such a policy.

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN He who thinks the Seventh ward of Seattle is not the home of the politician is off his trolly, for many there are in that ward who have up their lightning-rods in the hope that a nomination for an office will hit them. For the state senate three Seventh ward men are out: E. B. Palmer and W. R. Gay for the Thirty-seventh senatorial district and Frank H. Renick from the Thirty-fifth senatorial district. There are two candidates for the House of Representatives from the Forty-seventh representative district: Homer Sweeney and Alfred H. Heebe. It is said Aubrey Levy may aspire to the House from the Forty-fifth representative district. Aside from these Judge Mitchell Gilliam is a candidate to succeed himself as a superior court judge. Matt. H. Gormley is a candidate for county treasurer to succeed himself. Kenneth Macintosh is a candidate to succeed himself as prosecuting attorney. Elmer E. Conner is a candidate to succeed Otto A. Case as county clerk. P. V. Davis and J. B. Gordon are both candidates to succeed themselves as justices of the peace. Many of these aspirants have opponents also from the Seventh as yet unannounced, all of which clearly proves that the Seventh is the home of the politician. * * * The Afro-American Political Club of Seattle met at their hall, 2613 East Madison, last Wednesday evening and though there were but ten of the 250 members present, an enthusiastic meeting was held. The constitution adopted at the previous meeting was revised, and more revisions are in order for the next meeting. It seems to be the object of some of the members to make an Independent political organization of it and The Seattle Republican is of the opinion that the time is ripe for a Republican Club. The pioneers of the Northwest held their annual re-union last Tuesday in Seattle, and a good'y number were present to enjoy the outing. The gentleman selected for the presidency for the ensuing year is perhaps the oldest in the United States occupying a similar official position. Rev. George F. Whitworth, the preside t of the Pioneers' Association of Washington, is in his ninety-first year, and yet he is remarkably active and attends a volume of school J. and church business daily and makes weekly visits to Tacoma. He can be seen almost every day on the streets of Seattle, going at a gate that would make the ordinary messenger boy blush behind his ears, Rev. Whitworth has spent many years in Seattle and has watched it grow from nothing to a great and wealthy city. Here's hoping that at least a score more years await his usefulness. THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER IN RUSSIA BY JOHN PHILIP SOUSA As director, for twenty-six years past, of two bands—that of the United States Marine Corps and Sousa's—I have probably conducted the "Star Spangled Banner" as often, or oftener perhaps, than any man of my age in America. There have been instances when I have played the national anthem in which the intensity of public feeling and patriotism of the audiences evoked great enthusiasm, but I can remember no instance where the song was received with greater acclaim than in Russia. During my tour of Europe in 1903 we were in St. Petersburg on the czar's birthday. When I came to my dressing room in the Cirque Cinicelli, which corresponds to our New York Hippodrome, I was waited upon by the secretary of the prefect of the city, who requested that I open my performance with the Russian national anthem. "And," said he, "if it meets with a demonstration, will you kindly repeat it?" I said I would. "And," continued he, if it meets with a further demonstration, will you repeat it again?" I assured him that I would repeat it just so long as a majority of the audience applauded. The audience consisted almost entirely of members of the nobility and the military, with their wives, sweethearts, sons and daughters. At the playing of the first note the entire audience arose and ```markdown ``` every man, almost all in uniform, came to a salute. At the end of the anthem there was great applause, and I was compelled to play the air four times before the audience was satisfied. On retiring to my dressing room at the end of the first part I was again visited by the secretary who told me it was the wish of the prefect that I begin the second part of my program with the national anthem of America, and that he would have an official announce to the public beforehand he name and sentiment of the song. Before we began our second part a tall Russian announced to the public the name and character of the words of the "Star Spangled Banner," and I have never heard more sincere or lasting applause for any musical number than that which greeted our national anthem. We were compelled to repeat it not less than four times, with every one in the vast hall standing and the military men holding hands to their caps, in the attitude of salute; and I am sure that no body of musicians ever played a piece with more fervor, dignity and spirit than our boys did the "Star Spangled Banner" in the capitol of the Russian Empire. \* \* \* A Clarke county preacher, who happened to get on the windward side of a brother who has a reputation of looking on "the wine when it is red," rebuked him thusly: "Brother, you look like a Christian, you act like a Christian and you pray like a Christian, but your breath smells like hell."—Washougal Sun. | SALE OF PIANOS Eight Pianos Sold the First Day o this Sale; Five Sold Yesterday KOHLER & CHASE 1305 SECOND AVENUE wy ARCADE BUILDING Bes a AR IT AN = RT eRae . uarrne Ns per snoop ced Iie is HE el (ay A Se ETS Se | ies 7 SEAS eS | a qi SS eae STYLE NO. 1 =: —————— PL ——___ = 1 TAY Se a | iy ae SUMNER 4 [Lee EA bi NA ea t |! ‘i | Fay eS as Sigal dA Co Ss SIN 1) SS | 4 (ee STYLE NO. 2 oll Sea — aaa: bs eee = at ae oe is i —— = 8 rae | 3 NAN St gee | Hi wy 8) E@y FS ZZ, A ANS iss SS, ws ee : Pee PI he First Day o this Sale EVERYBODY... Is Taking Advantage Every piano contracted by us for San Francise has been and is being shipped to Seattle. Our sale in San Francisco before the fire never averaged les: than 100 pianos and upwards per month. The sud den stoppage of such an enormous business in that city paralyzes all previous arrangements and con tracts. Business in San Francisco is at a standstill Yet pianos keep pouring in by the hundreds. They can’t be used in that city, so naturally they are sen’ to our Seattle branch to be disposed of to our best advantage. In order to sell So many extra pianos in so short a time it becomes necessary to cut prices tc about half the ordinary figure. This is the greatest time for piano buyers in the history of Seattle. A splendid assortment of high grade standard makes of pianos carried by our house. There is not a finer assortment on the Pacific Coast from which to make a selection. Jammed in among the new pianos are ten or twelve snaps in slightly used and second-hand pia- nos, which are offered at about one-fourth what they are worth when new. For instance, there is a fine large sized Knabe at $200; a Chase at $150, etc., ete. One Weber used a few months at $200 less than it originally sold for, and on easy terms, too. Now is the time to get one. Several outside cabinet piano players at from $100 to $150 each. Anything to get them out of the way. Everyone who calls to inspect our goods and prices admits that this is the biggest reduction of prices ever before given in this city and 90 per cent. of those who call make purchases before leaving the store. The house of Kohler & Chase is known and has been known for the past 57 years ( during which which time they have been doing business on the Pacific Coast) for its fair and square methods of do- ing business. They handle nothing but the best grade of goods, and therefore when it is learned that a sale of such large consequences is being held at their warerooms it does not take long for the custo- mer to decide what to do. If you desire a piano or organ, and want the best grade on the market, and want it cheap, here is the place to get it. We don’t intend to keep this sale up forever. Just as soon as we get room for our incoming stock the prices will again be raised to normal. So don’t put off coming down to see us. Come today, or if you live in the country write usa letter. Catalogs, prices, terms, etc., mailed free for the asking.

Daniel Frawley and Mary Van Euren head the organization, which numbers twenty people and includes many well-known actors. It came here direct from New York. The company will remain at the Seattle for six weeks, giving a new bill ecah week. Popular prices. "The Princess Chic" At the Grand the farewell performance of "The Mascot," Audran's great comic opera, will be given on Saturday and Sunday evenings. The many songhits alone render this charming opera worth more than the popular admission charged by Russell & Drew, but there is much lively fun in the bill as well. The full cast is employed and the chorus numbers are worthy of special mention. Next Sunday, June 24, will be positively the last time on which "The Mascot" will be sung. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week the San Francisco Opera Company will fill an engagement at the Tacoma Theatre, Tacoma, returning to the Grand next Thursday night for the first of the six performances of "The Princess Chic," the comedy opera success by Kirke La Shelle and Julia Edwards. "The Princess Chic" has been seen in Seattle before and has made a hit, although it played at $i.50 prices. An equally good performance, it is believed, will be given at the Grand next week for half that sum. Manager Healey's singers will all be in the cast and some more of the popular onsemble chorus numbers will be introduced. The seat sale will begin on Tuesday. "The Toilers" In these days, when every one has formed some kind of an opinion of the greatest living issue of the day, the differences between capital and labor, a play on that scheme is an instructive object lesson and incidentally it affords food for thought in the working out or solution of this intricate problem. Of course, in "The Toilers," the play at the Third Avenue Theatre this week, the author has introduced this public question in a play so full of heart interest and the rascally doings of an unscrupulous melodramatic villain, that the solution of the problem of capital and labor is only hinted at; but the authors have furnished the stage with a capital play, and one that will live, in "The Toilers." The Aylesworth Company have made much of the characters, and have extended their long list of friends through this production. "A Struggle For Gold" is the title of next week's play at the Third Avenue Theatre. It will be the eight or ninth consecutively new play this company has presented at the Third Avenue. It deals with interesting characters of va THE SEATTL REPEBLICAN rious types, with the scenes laid in San Francisco and California mining towns. It has a good story for a plot, and the scenic effects will re picturesque and interesting. John Cort's attractions for the coming season portend an invasion of no small pretentions among producing managers. This Western manager has corralled a coterie of theatrical luminaries who will make him an important factor among amusement purveyors. Florence Roberts, who scored so unqualified a success at the Liberty Theatre last spring, will begin her second season in "The Strength of the Weak" at Philadelphia about September 15. After visiting most of the important cities, Miss Roberts will return to New York during the holidays, in a new play which is now being written. Occasional matinees of D'Annunxio's "Gioconda" are also scheduled. Calve will arrive in New York about October 1, to begin her second concert tour under Mr. Cort's direction. The Diva will sing at Carnegie Hall prior to her season of fifty concerts.

CORT'T MOVEMENTS JOHN CORT [Name] THE SUNDAY EORUM The Forum meets next Sunday, June 24, at the Afro-American Hall, 2013 East Madison street, and the principal speaker will be Mr. John T. Gayton. Mr. Gayton has resided in Seattle for the past seventeen years and has had ample opportunity to observe the trend of things in general, and especially those things that affect the growth of his race, and it is predicted that he will give the Forum an all-round good talk. The next speaker will be Mr. F. F. Keeble, the well-known tonsorial artist, who will discuss the advisability of the young Negro taking up the barber trade. Mr. Keeble learned his trade in Nashville, Tenn. He went from there to Indianapolis, Ind., where he established himself as an artist at the business and did exceedingly well, but having been seized with the desire to "am West and grow up with the country," he settled at Tacoma, where, for a number of years he stood head in the barber-bath house business. He subsequently moved to Seattle, where he is now engaged at his trade. He has had a varied experience; so varied, in fact, that he is fully prepared to entertain the Forum with many points of general interest on the subject. Others will speak briefly on "Business Opportunities For the Race in Seattle" Too much cannot be said on this subject, as the race is in need of opportunities from which they can realize good financial returns. But yesterday a hale, earty young black man said he had walked the streets of Seattle for six months, looking for employment, and was still doing so. Was there cause for such? Had that young man not despiSED little things he would have bought a lawn-mowing outfit in the early spring and solicited lawn work; and for such labor there is big demand. It would have been like rolling off a log for him to have signed contracts to care for at east twenty-five lawns during the season, at not less than $4 per lawn, and even more; and for May, June, July, J. T. GAYTON AYTON August, September, and probably October, he could have cleaned up from $100 to $150 per month. But he despised the little things, and as a consequence is still looking for something "honorable" to do. There are hundreds of opportunities similar to the one cited above, out of which the young Negro could realize even more than he could from a clerical position in a bank if he would only let down his bucket from where he stands and not depise the little things. PERSONAL Mrs. Cayton reached Nashville Wednesday, June 13, and reports the weather beastly ho. Miss Mabel G. Walker and Mr. J. R. Davis were married in Tacoma last (Thursday) evening. Master Paul Teamer, who was reported dangerously ill last week, died last Friday and was buried Monday. For the past two years he had been employed by the A. D. T. as a messenger, where he rendered valuable service. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Teamer are very thankful to the friends who assisted them during the illness of their son. Mr. Amon Davis is doing a stunt at the Pantages this week, where he will be employed all the summer.
