Tyrany is about to wreck Russia while the madness for money is seriously threatening both England and the United Statee. If Harry Thaw "tells all," as he threatens to do at his trial, he will have things so hot in New York that the Thaw will cause an overflow. Seattle's city council struck a Hill last Monday that proved rather hard sleding for a while, but it managed to get over, right side up with care. Perhaps it was the vision of a fat fee that prompted Judge Upton to congratulate Esther Mitchell for the killing of her brother. That which some men will not do for a piece of money seems to have never as yet been done. If Gov. Mead really favors the direct primary law he seems to be working against Harry Fairchilds' only method of continuing himself a factor in Whatcom county politics. Has an estrangement arisen between the governor and his captain? ```markdown ``` SEATTLLE, WASHINGTON, JULY 20, 1906. INSANES OR CRIMNALS There seems to be an epidemic of insane murderers extending from New York to Seattle, which must be a result of the excessive as well as the unusual heat prevailing from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Some twenty odd years ago in some of the extreme Southern states, where the climate is pretty nearly always as mild and balmy as is that of Italy, there came an extremely cold winter, and as low down as New Orleans the lakes and lagoons froze thick enough for persons to skate upon. The weather would occasionally moderate, only to rain and freeze up again. When the thaw did finally come and spring made its appearance, the temperatnre almost in a day jumped from cold to hot, an epedemic of hydrophobia among the cattle and dogs soon became prevelant. Cows that had been gentle as lambs would attack man and beast, and dogs acted in a similar manner. As a result some of the most valuable animals had to be killed by their owners. Scientists declared that the prevalence of so unprecedented a number of hydrophobia cases was due wholly to the excessive cold weather throughout the winter followed by extreme heat in the early spring. Perhaps the people of Seattle are similarly affected, for they have experienced a long and severe winter, followed by a hot summer. If the trouble is not due to the aforesaid causes, then the AngloSaxon is showing dangerous symptoms of either drifting into an alarming state of violent insanity or vicious criminality. Since John L. Wilson has owned the P.-I. he has steadfastly refused to permit the paper to defend himself against the vicious attacks of slanderous publications, but last Sunday it threw sentiment to the wind and administered to Buster Blethens a rebuke that he will not soon forget. A few more like it, John L., and all of us will at least show more respect for you. Last Sunday added one more murder to Seattle's long list of murders, but the poor devil who was killed in a saloon broil during the Sunday revelings went to the Potter's field unmourned. Crocker may have used coercion in some instances to attain political precedent, but for the most part he used Senator Ankney's coin, which is more effective by far than force. PRICE TEN CENTS. It is said that Ex-Governor McBride has captured the Republican organization in Skagit county and will make himself felt in politics this year. This is not at all surprising. Gov. McBride is one of the most forceful men in the state. He is a born fighter, one who ever had something worth fighting for and who never wasted his time combatting windmills. In other words, he fought for principle and his re-entry into politics is a matter of congratulation to the state.—Reville. We suspect some, if not all, of those boys who handle the forgeries of the "mysterious check man" are just as deep in the muck as he is in the mire." It is rather singular that the mysterious check man always sniffs danger and is nowhere to be found, even when his trick, so far as he knows, is working smoothly. Representative J. D. Bassett of Ritzville was nominated by the late Republican county convention of Franklin to succeed himself. Mr. Bassett made a splendid record in the last legislature and the Piemaker predicts that he will do even better than before in the coming legislature. "Col. A. J. Blethen," with Senator Turner, are to represent the Democrats of this section at the Bryan reception in New York. This, remember, is the same Col. Alden J. Blethen who is always dabbling in Republican politics. Uncle Sam has been asked to act as mediator for the warring Central American goverhments. If Uncle Sam would assume a protectorate over the whole bunch of them nolens volens he would be doing the proper thing. Bryan wants no factional dispute at his coming reception. He knows there are plenty of them booked for his 1908 campaige without getting them busy two years beforehand. George Mitchell's trial cost King county about $1,800,00. Now, if Esther Mitchell and Maud Creffeld demand seperate trials, and they doubtless will, the state will have to pay out $3,600.00 more for Oregon's criminals and be forced to maintain the two women the balance of their lives. Pray, what have we done to be so imposed upon? ```markdown ``` TALES OF THE TOWN Without question the new jewelry store in the new Lowman building, which Albert Hansen threw open last Monday and Tuesday for public inspection, is the handsomest establishment of its kind in the Northwest. The Bon Marche, which is by odds the largest dspartment store west of the Mississippi river, is still expanding and will have two new stories and more Second avenue frontage in the very near future. It is certainly the Big Store. The Superior court of this county has adjourned until the first Monday in September, which means that, the occupants of murderers' row will have two months rest from their cares and expectations. [Picture of a man in a suit and bow tie]. JOHN C. WALLING John C. Walling, who for a number of years was the manager for Sherman, Clay & Co's. piano store here and in Tacoma, has severed his connection with that firm and has opened up a music house of his own at the old Sherman, Clay & Co. stand, 715 Second avenue. Mr. Walling has the business push in him that always guarantees success. Kristjan Johnson, it is believed, was murdered last Snnday evening while having a high-old-time in the restricted district of Seattle. If Johnson was murdered then three murders were committed in eightg days; which, if true, would indicate that Seattle will do. The body of George Mitchell was taken to Coravallis for burial last Monday. The Mitchell brothers refused to see their sister Esther, although she had expressed a desire to see them before they left the city. Esther, in the past, may have been crazy, but he will yet come round all right. "Fapa" was becoming impatient at the lateness of the hour when he remarked: "I can't see why that young fellow who is calling on Minnie hasn't sense enough to go home. It's near midnight." The little brother of the family just came in, heard his father's renark and ventured some light: "He can't go, father, sister's sitting on him."—Exehange. ```markdown ``` THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Fourth avenue or nothing, insists the Southern Pacific. If the city council has any regard for the rights of the people, as well as the best interest of Seattle, it will say to Mr. Harriman, let it be nothing. Seattle will try to live through it, if the S. P. never comes round. The city council, contrary to expectations, did not rescind the franchise granted to the Milwaukee to build down the Cedar river right-of-way last Monday evening. There seem to be some members of the council who do not care how much the people suffer just so railroad corporations prosper. The trial trip of the Nebraska, it is currently reported, was a most briltliant success. The editor hereof has endeavered through the columns of this paper to give us much publicity to this great Seattle enterprise as was possible, and yet the Moran Co. forgot that there was such a paper published as the Seattle Republican at the time of the trial trip. According to an opinion giveu by the prosecuting attorney's office for this county, the commissioners have the legal right to call a special election to vote on the proposition of the county appropriating $500,-000 to assist James A. Moore in building the Lake Washington canal. The election, therefore, will be called ae soon as the preliminary arrangements therefor can be made. We do most earnestly believe that the water consumers of Seattle would profit by having the city install the meter system. There is no denying the fact that a majority of the water consumers permit hundreds of gallons of water to run waste in their so-called irrigating practices. Any ordinary lawn in Seattle, with a good flow of water, can be thoroughly irrigated in two hours, and even less, and when the water is set to going and is continued on and on for two and three hours without the hose being moved, then it is running to waste and he or she who permits it should pay for it. When one uses water on the meter system more care will be exercised and less water wasted. Then, again, those who use the greater amount of water would pay the biggest water bills. King county will be putting in a bill of expenses to Oregon soon, if her "rollers" don't conduct their killing scrapes at home. Seattle may be fond of sensation, but hardly enough so that she will be content to wash the dirty linen of other states and pay the laundryman.—Guays Harbor Washingtonian. Judge Frater thinks "life is held too cheap." Quite right, Judge, and there are millions of black Uncle Sammies who would like to shake your hand and say, "amen, brother, preach on!" Evelyn Thaw expressed a desire to die at thirty years of age, and there are those who think that if she had died at the age of thirteen the world would not have been any the loser. He or she who uses city water out of hours for sprinkling lawns or streets, is a petty thief; and he or she, who sees he or she so breaking the water regulations, is a particeps criminis, if he or she does not report the same to the proper authorities.

From the rural districts east of the mountains comes a crying demand for the enactment of a local option law fashioned after the measure which was recently adopted in Oregon and which, it is said, is proving quite effective. Under the Oregon law the county which desires to go "dry' does it by a vote of the sovereign people within her borders. The county containing a majority of people who are thirsty remains "wet." The whole matter reverts to a vote of the people, and their verdict is absolute. Should such measure be enacted by the legislature of this state it would have little effect in Western Washington. Here the urban population and the mill workers so largely exceed the voters of the rural districts that the result would not be in doubt. In Eastern Washington, however, it would be different. That is almost exclusively a farming community and there is something about close contact with the soil that inclines a man to temperance. It is said that over half the counties in that section would prohibit the sale of liquor if they had the power to do so. This would be a severe blow to the brewing and distilling interests and they will make a vigorous fight against the enactment of a local option law.—Bellingham Reville. JONES FOR SENATOR The candidacy of Congressman Wesley L. Jones for a seat in the United States Senate may be said to have been fairly launched at the banquet given in his honor by citizens of this city. Several of the speakers in their addresses referred to the probable candidacy of Mr. Jones and each of them gave it their hearty endorsement. The Democrat, while not engaged in boosting Mr. Joner or any other Republican for high office, is nevertheless of the opinion that the Congressman's chances for the senatorial success on are very bright, providing that the people get a chance of saying who they want for senator. This chance they will have providing that the next legislature will give us a direct primary law. If present conditions continue Mr. Jones will have no more show of succeeding Senator Ankney than a snowball would have for lasting an indefinite length of time in the atmosphere of bades.—North Yakima Democra'. Where will Brother Cayton find enough Republicans to renovate the party? He claims the Ankney crowd is as crooked as the hind leg of a Mississippi cotton-tail. He must know the Wilson crowd is the worst lot of politicsl buccanneers that ever cast a shadow over this fair state. Cayton is a man of many good parts; his publication is independent—at times; but as a rule he supports the yellow dog, provided the said canine is labeled a Republican. We fear that The Republican will be compelled to worry along in this vale of tears with conditions very much like that he complains of.—Tacoma Forum. You bet your boots we are always Republican. We make our fight in the primaries and always accept the verdict of the convention. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Friday, When it comes to "beying at the moon" the old fossil on The Times, with his collar of "vengeance," does take the cake. But no fool no fun; so howl away, there's no danger, as a barking dog never bites. If Joe Gans carries out his threat in refusing to go into the ring with any more "smokes" then he won't be able to go out and "chase himself" in his training quarters. That Kansas publication, known as Appeal To Reason, does not always appeal to reason, but to passions and prejudices. If it would permit reason to appeal to it a good deal of the stuff it publishes would be cut out. In the retiring of Gen. James A. Drain from the office of adjutant general of the National Guards, or the state troops, the only man that has ever made the department a business proposition gets out, and he will be sadly missed. Washington's troops are made up of real instead of tin soldiers, as prior to his assuming command of the guards. Lieutenant Col. Hamilton will succeed him. [Name not provided] J. A. DRAIN A Russian officer has discovered that Japan is getting ready to engage in war with America. It is kind thus to warn us, but it may be that the wish is father to the discovery.—Baltimore American. The stock boast of the Chicago packers has been that they canned every part of the hog excepting the squeal. They will discover also that they can never can the squeal that now is going up from the poisoned public. Candidates desiring announcement cards can secure them at this office at very reasonable rates. In fact, the job department of The Seattle Republican is prepared to do all kinds of job printing on short notice. Persons desiring any kind of printing can get it as they like it at this office. 816½ Third Avenue. 'Phone: Main 305 July 20, 1906 AFRO-AMERICANISM A Negro soldier of the 24th infantry is said to be the crack marksman of the army. A degree of pure honesty (P. H.), right living (R. L.), or Christian piety (C. P.), is worth far more to an individual and the world than the empty honor of "M. D.," "D. D." or "L. L. D.," and is in much greater demand. On the motion of Senator McLaurin of Mississippi the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Resolved that the people of the United States are horrified by the reports of the massacres of Hebrews in Russia on account of their race and religion, and that those bereaved thereby have the hearty sympathy of the United States." And, of course, the people of Russia are equally horrified at the massacres in Mississippi, on account of race, but the Douma has not as yet resoluted anent the matter. Cody Bryant enjoys the distinction of being the wealthiest Afro-American farmer in Georgia. Bryant's estate which he has accumulated without outside aid in the last quarter of a century, is reputed to be worth between $50,000 and $100,000. He owns, unincumbered, nearly 2,000 acres of the finest farming land in middle Georgia, much of it being valued at $50 an acre. In addition to the extensive land holdings, Bryant has large sums invested in various enterprises in his section. He runs about 60 plows on his various farms in Jasper county. George Carliss, an Afro-American, head tanner for the Miller Brothers Company, is said to be the only man who knows how to make patent leather that will not crack. At any rate, his firm guarantees the leather he makes "not to crack." This process is the invention of Mr. Carliss, who keeps a dead secret. It is said that even the firm for which he works does not perfectly know how he does it. Three years ago a rival firm tried to steal the secret. A spy was sent to investigate the Afro-American's chemicals, and while monkeying with them got blown up for his pains. This week the National Federation of Women's Clubs is in session in Detroit, Michigan. The membership is dignified by the names of such splendid and brilliant women as Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Mrs. Josephine B. Bruce, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mrs. Josepeine Silone-Yates and Mrs. Fannie Barrier Williams, The Federation is doing a fine and practical work. Its officers conduct in many cities and towns, notably Chicago and Tuskegee, social settlements which have had a perceptible influence upon the women of the community. It is these ladies' noble function to affect the very heart of the race's life—its homes. It is a privilege, which the most ambitious men may envy them—Age. The Methodist Episcopal bishop for Africa, Rev. Joseph C. Hartsell, who recently returned from Liberia after an absence of two years in Africa, is very hopeful for the black republic, in which the repatriated Afro-Americans and their descendants now number 18,000, and with a few civilized native ```markdown ``` Page 3 form the governing class, "Liberia, which has led, hitherto, a rather precarious existence," said the bishop, "is now entering upon a new epoch. An English company has been granted large mining and rubber concessions, in return for which the government has secured a loan of $500,000. With this sum it is intended to pay the debts of the republic, to establish a national bank and to open up the interior." Bishop Hartsell said he would not advocate the wholesale emigration of Afro-Americans from the Southern states. There are not openings in Liberia, he said, for many settlers, and trade and other conditions are unfavorable for the reception of many emigrants at a time. One of the students of Eric Pepe School of Art from 1900 to 1901, Robert Hemmings, a colored boy, has been winning some unusual distinction in one of the greatest art schools in Paris—Julie's. He has just received the first prize for painting and also the first prize for drawing in this greatest of French schools, where he was in competition with students from all over the world. This coming painter is yet a very young man. He is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hemmings, and brother of Frederick J., of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Mrs. A. J. Love, of Chattanooga, Tenn., a graduate of Vassar College, who first discovered her brother's latent talent.—Exchange. With no intention of being funny, nevertheless it looks as if England has had her last Beit of African gold fields, Lord Alfred having passed in his hecks. NEGRO BANKS IN MISSISSIPPI Reference was made in these columns last week to the banks operated by Negroes in the state of Mississippi. The list then was incomplete, for after a little inquiry we find including the charters granted for banks at Columbus and Greenwood the Negroes are operating in the state of Mississippi twelve banks, two each at Jackson and Vicksburg, and one each at Indianola, Hattiesburg, Natchez, Mound Bayou, Greenville, Yazoo City, Columbus and Greenwood. These banks, of course, must meet the requirements of the Mississippi state laws and all of them appear to be doing splendid business. (The last two named have not opened for business yet.) All of these banks, except possibly two, have been opened for business during the administration of the famous Governor Vardaman. It would appear that all of the Negroes of Mississippi are not of the governor's liking.—Southwestern Christian Advocate. FOR SHERIFF. My office and my official record are an open book and on them I rest my case for a renomination and election. I am a candidate to succeed myself as sheriff of King county, subject to the pleasure of the next Republican county convention. LOU C. SMITH. FOR COUNTY CLERK. Believing that I have the approval of every man, woman and child that have done business with the county clerk's office the past eighteen months, as having done my duty and my whole duty without fear or favor, I hereby announce my candidacy for the nomination of county clerk, subject to the endorsement of the next Republican county convention. If nominated and elected my second term shall be like unto my first. OTT O A. CASE. [Name] SHERIFF L. C. SMITH, Who has made a most flattering record as sheriff of King county, and according to Republican custom will be a candidate for a second term. Representative Will E. Humphrey and wife have returned from the national capital looking fine and dandy. Senator Piles and Representative Humphrey will be tendered a public reception at the Arlington Hotel next Wednesday evening under the auspices of the King County Republican Club. FOR COUNTY TREASURER. Believing that the voters and taxpayers want even the men elected to office to give value received for the salaries they draw, and further believing that, the taxpayers and voters expect every employee in a county office to do his or her duty, and whole duty, the same as if they were working for a private person, concern or corporation, I have since assuming the duties of treasurer endeavored so to do. I hereby announce myself as a candidate for renomination, subject to the endorsement of the next Republican county convention. MATT. H. GORMLEY. FOR PROSECUTING ATTORNEY. On the record that my administration of the office of prosecuting attorney has made for the past eighteen months, I again seek the nomination for prosecuting attorney of King county at the hands of the next Republican county convention. If nominated and elected, I hereby pledge to give to the voters and taxpayers just as economical administration in the affairs of the office for the ensuing two years as I will have in the past two years. KENNETH MACKINTOSH. FOR COUNTY ASSESSOR. I hereby announce myself as a candidate for the nomination for King county subject to the endorsement of the Republican county convention. If nominated and elected I pledge to give the county an economical administration of the affairs of the office without fear or favor. GEORGE V. GAU. FOR SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS. I am a candidate for superintendent of public schools of King county, to succeed myself, and rely on my work in that capacity for the past eighteen months as my chief recommendation for the renomination and election which I seek. My candidacy for the nomination is subject to the endorsement of the next Republican county convention. FOR COUNTY AUDITOR. In announcing my candidacy to succeed myself as county auditor, I do so, believing that my office has given general satisfaction to the public. No partisan, however, is greater than his party, and however pleased the public might be, the party workers might have reason to think otherwise, hence my candidacy for the nomination of county auditor is subject to the endorsement of the next Republican county convention. JAMES P. AGNEW. Friday, July 20, 1906 FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER. After consulting with a very large percentage of the voters in the Third Commissioners' District I have decided to seek the nomination for county commissioner from the Third District, subject to the ratification of the next Republican county convention. If nominated and elected I will endeavor to carefully look into every contract let by the commissioners and use due diligence in protecting the taxpayers from being imposed upon in the letting of contracts. My vote shall always be cast for a judicious expenditure of all county funds. JOHN W. PETER FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER. In view of the fact that the city has two out of the three members of the board of county commissioners, and if the present incumbent from the First Commissioner's District is reelected, the same condition will exist for the ensuing four years, and after having been repeatedly urged by many of the voters and taxpayers of the district who live in the country to make a fight for the nomination, I hereby announce my candidacy for the nomination, subject to the endorsement of the next Republican county convention. If nominated and elected, economy shall be the watchword in all matters pertaining to county matters. W. A. CARLE. FOR COUNTY ASSESSOR. At the request of a large number of taxpayers and business men of the county, I hereby announce my candidacy for the office of county assessor to succeed John W. Peter, for whom I acted as chief deputy during the four years he will have been assessor, subject to the ratification of the next Republican county convention. If nominated and elected I will, as in the past, give value received. FOR COUNTY CORONER. I hereby announce my candidacy for county coroner, subject to the will of the next Republican county convention. If renominated and elected I shall endeavor to act during my second term in the way of conducting the affairs of the office as I did during the time of my first term. F. M. CARROLL. M. D. Call for Republican State Convention. A Republican state convention is hereby called, to be held at Seattle, Wash., on Wednesday, September 19, 1906, at the hour of 10 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of nominating three candidates for representative in congress and four candidates for supreme court judges, promulgating a party platform, selecting a state central committee, and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before said convention. The basis of representation in said convention shall be four delegates at large for each county and one delegate for each 200 votes or major fraction thereof, cast for Hon. Samuel G. Cosgrove for presidential elector at the general election held in November, 1904 as follows: County. Vote. Delegates.

It is recommended that county conventions be held not later than Saturday, September 15, and that certified lists of delegates and alternates to the state convention and to joint or district conventions be promptly forwarded to the secretary of the state central committee by the secretaries of the respective county conventions. It is recommended that joint or district conventions be held at Seattle on the same date as the state convention. By order of the Republican state central committee. E. B. PALMER, Chairman.

Seattle Washington May 23, 1906 Friday, July 20 1906 MASONS IN SESSION The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Washington and Oregon has been in session tn this city since last Monday and bas done a vast amount of routine work. Chief among the things it did was to incorporate as the Grand Lodge of Washington, with jurisdiction over Oregon. By this move it is hoped that the two factions heretofore existing in this state will be united into one sov- ereign lodge. The installation of new officers and the laying of the corner stone of Mt. Zion Baptist church are the plans for to- day (Friday), with a grand ball tonight. The delegates present are: Crockett Ross, ©. S. Parker, J. B. Hogan, Wil- liam Scott, F. A. Stokes, C. 8. Ryan, J. B. Beckham and E. Petway, of Spokane; S. C. Logan, W. D. Allen, G. W. Kinney and J. W. Payne, of Portland; C. C. Crowley, Henry Berry and Gordon Sol- omon, of Everett; H. J. Asberry, D. W. Frye and §. 8. Freeman, of Tacoma. There are two fraternal delegates from California present, in the persons of C. H. Tinsley of San Francisco, and W. T. Asberry of Oakland, PERSONAL In deference to ceremonies at the Bap- tist church next Sunday afternoon, the regular meeting of The Sunday Fo- rum will be deferred nntil the following Sunday, June 29. A musical program has been arranged for the occasion, which will be found’in the next issue of The Seattle Republican. Joe Gans and Dave Holly, two of Uncle Sam’s dusky sons, will battle in the fistic arena next Monday evening at Pleasant Beach. Joe has played long and well in the fistic arena and if he, himself, tells the truth, has made about $100,000 out of the game, most of which, he says, he has “‘blowed in onsure tips’”’ in horse-racing; which reminds us of the old addage: ‘‘a fool and his money soon part.” - On Thursday evening, July *, before her departure for an extensive trip through Alaska, Mrs. J. H. Mann gave a reception and lawn party at the home of Mr. and Mrs, R. A. Clark, in honor of Miss Amy Bedell of Sunnyside, and Miss Alma Clark, at which fnearly fifty friends were present.j{The house was decorated in evergreens and flowers of the season, and the yard beautifully il- Juminated with Japanese .{lanterns. Games on the lawn and music were the principal amusements of the evening, after which refreshments were served. Mr. ©. I.
