An exhibitor of nude pictures was arrested in New York one day last week. The minions of the law could get busy in Seattle if they would act along similar lines.
"Does Your Child Say Bright Things?" is a headline. Certainly. It would not be "you rchild" if it did not. Everybody's child says "bright things," from his or her view point.
Bryan's paper, The Commoner, has been listed by the tax assessor at $22,250. Anybody who has ever read The Commoner will admit that this appraisement is a trifle high.—Exchange.
Bryan is now considered by a united Democracy both "safe and sane" for the presidency in 1908. Rubbing up against the Asiatic heathen worked wonders mentally and morally on the windy Moses from Nebraska.
It was the direct primary law that put the political tricksters to sleep over in Illinois last week and it will do the same thing for the political freebooters of Washington if the people will have it enacted.
The drought in Western Washington, which has covered a period of almost two months, says Weather Observer Salisbury, has about reached its limit. The people are in pretty nearly the same fix.
Mayor William Hickman Moore is in a hospital at Los Angeles, California, suffering from an ear trouble, so the dispatches say, but we expect he is suffering to a greater degree from being away. It's a good time to be away, Mr. Mayor, and thus save you the humiliation of having to side-step.

SEATTLLE, WASHINGTON, AUGUST 10, 1906.
There was a lynching in North Carolina one day this week and three Negroes, charged with crime, were the victims. Subsequent reports say the mob was lead by an ex-convict, who was a wretch before being sent to state prison and did not mend his ways after returning to his home. And the Southern states will continue to be imposed upon by such criminal whelps until that whole country will be looked upon as being the home of murderers and thugs, and instead of growing and prospering along with other sections of the United States, it will be shunned by everyone who lives the life of a law-abiding citizen. This mob captain is now in jail, but it has required the standing army of the state to prevent his fellow-criminals on the outside from storming the jail and releasing him, thus proving that North Carolina is all but in the clutches of the worst type of red-handed anarchists known to civilization.
W. A. Peters, who for many years operated a merganthaler job office in Seattle, has moved to Prosser where he has begun the publishing of the Benton County Republican, the first number of which has already been circulated. The paper looks prosperous and Editor Peters, who was in Seattle one day this week, says Prosser "looks good" to him, the two other weekly publications in the city to the contrary notwithstanding. "I am running a farmers' paper and I feel that it will be a huge success," is the way Mr. Peters expressed it. He has the only Merganthaler typesetting machine in the county, which will enable him to put out a whopping good paper at a nominal cost.
The governors of the state of Mississippi since 1784 have all been Democratic in politics, but generally men of horse sense. The present governor, J. K. Vardeman, is not only a damphool in politics, but he is as crazy as a march hare on general principles.
Nome's Strong newspaper man is now a resident of Seattle, he having sold his Nome Nugget. There is no denying the fact that the Major is a Strong editorial writer and will make a Strong pull for a place on some Seattle paper.
Councilman Gill may have a splendid supply of sattire, but Councilman Crichton is also there with the goods when once arroused, and Gill knows that NOW!

THAT MUNICIPAL STREET RAILWAY
In the past The Seattle Republican has been a strong advocate of municipal ownership of public utilities and it still believes in that doctrine, and that, too, to the exclusion of all competitors, but it will not advocate this municipality owning and operating a public utility for the purpose of "revenue only;" nor will it advocate this municipality owning and operating a competing street railway system to that of a private concern, by building the same at the public's expense and still charge passengers the same fare as the private concern.
When The Seattle Republican took up the advocacy of the city of Seattle owning and operating a competing railway system it did it on the theory that the constitution of this state permitted a municipality to condemn any street car system within its corporate limits, by having the same appraised, and after having paid the sum named by the appraisers to take it over and operate it under the regulations of the city. A number of articles from time to time have appeared in The Seattle Republican, showing the feasibility and right of the city of Seattle to condemn the present railway system and operate the same.
The proposition, however, that is to be voted on the 12th of next September is for the city to appropriate out of the general funds a million and a half dollars, not to take over the properties of the Seattle Electric Company and operate the same, mind you, but to build a competing system, and a money maker, if you please; but despite that fact, the people, after having paid for the building of this Proposed street railway system are to receive no reduction in fares or anything else, but are to get shorter rides and pay the same fare as they are now doing; which reminds us of a person buying an automobile to save horse-feed, when, in fact, the cost of the wear and tear of the auto, is moro than the value of the horse.
When a municipality adopts the theory of ownership of public utilities, it does, or it should do it with the idea of reducing the cost of the commodity or utility to the consumers to the least and lowest cent above an economical running expense. It should not be done for mercinary gain, nor for the purpose of crushing some private concern, but for the benefit and general relief of the people. If it is to be built for revenue, then it should be made to finance itself, and the people should not be called upon to put up one cent for the construction of the same.
John E. Humphries, who has had more to say on this subject of the city of Seattle operating its own street railway system, has repeatedly declared that
Page 2
the whole plant and system could be financiered and built without it costing the city a single cent, and yet it would be able to reduce the passengers' fare from the very first to at least three cents per ride with transfers. But the city is not only being called upon to give a large sum to start the proposed system, but at some subsequent date will be called upon to give a still larger sum to complete it, with still no reduction in the fares in sight; and thus the tax-payers are to be slashed going and coming. This reminds us of the time we pawned our watch for $15, and after having paid $20 interest on the watch finally lost it. We simply paid the other fellow just $20 to take the watch, and then he sold it for double what he had to originally pay for it. Of course the proposed system is bound to be a money-maker from the start, for it has cost nothing to start it—nothing at least to those persons who will operate it, and the funds it takes in may be squandered or transferred to some other department at will, and yet in no wise cripple the system, for the people put up its construction price and it will begin without debt or interest.

MAY HAVE OULIVED ITS USEFULNESS (From The New York Sun.)
There are unmistakable signs that the process of party disintregation and realignment, of which we have had memorable examples in the United States, is once more far advanced and irresistible. Once more, as in 1822 and 1854, a party's culminating triumph has been followed by symptoms of swift decay and dissolution. Events will soon determine whether the Rnpublican party is destined, like the Jeffersonian party in 1824, or the Democratic party in 1860, to be split into fragments; or, like the Federalist party and the Whig party, to become utterly extinct. Experience has shown that party government is necessary to the working of representative institutions; but, of course, it does not follow that a given party may not outlive its usefulness. When that time comes, and the fig tree is seen to be irreparably barren, the inexorable flat is uttered from the ballot box: "Cut it down! Why cumbereth it the ground?"
The history of the United States under the Constitution is strewn with the wrecks of political organizations once full of vitality and promise. It would have seemed incredible to Alexander Hamilton on his deathbed had he been told that the Federalist party, which had launched the national government, which had lost the last presidential contest by only eight electoral votes and would, but for Hamilton himself, have defeated Jefferson in the House of Representatives, would in that year (1804) be able to muster only about a twelfth of the electoral votes for its candidate, and sixteen years later would be impotent to carry a single state. How could Jefferson, seeing the party created by himself, exalted to the pinnacle of victory when in 1820 the last member of the Virginia dynasty got every electoral vote but one, conceive or believe that within four years that party would be rent into factions pursuing irreconcilable aims and rancorously hostile to each other? How could it have been possible for Henry Clay, who was to be so long the inspiration and the strength of the Whig party, when he beheld it sweep the country in 1840 by a majority of 174 electoral votes, to foresee that it would hold together but little more than a decade, and that within a quarter of a century it would have become a memory? How was it possibles for Democrats in 1852, when Hunkers and Barnburners combined to bear Franklin Pierce to the White
THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
House by the astounding majority of 212 electoral votes, to imagine that within two years their party would be so shattered by the Nebraska bill that its implacable sections would in 1860 hold two national conventions and put forward two rival candidates? Yet what Hamilton, or Jefferson, or Henry Clay, or Franklin Pierce could not have foretold at the dates named would have been patent to every onlooker a few years later.
As history never repeats itself precisely we cannot expect to find an exact analogue to the existing situation in any of the conditions to which we have referred. There is, however, a sharp difference today between those Republicans who accept for their leaders Senator La Follette, of Wisconsin, and Gov. Cummins, of Iowa, and those whose accredited spokesmen are Senator Spooner and Senator Aldrich as there was between "Conscience Whigs" and "Cotton Whigs," or between those Democrats who advocated and those who opposed with vehemence the repeal of the Missouri Compromise. On the other hand, the Republicans are still held together by the force of a magnetic individuality, as the Whigs were up to 1852. It is unquestionably true that Theodore Roosevelt has come to personify, as Henry Clay personified, the energies and the hopes of his political organization. Such a process of incarnation has its dangers. When Henry Clay died the country recognized that the Whig party had been eviscerated. Its vitals were gone. Men said to one another at Clay's funeral: "Time was that when the brains were out the man would die." The Repubiican party will be lucky if the prospects of Mr. Roosevelt's early retirement from public life do not excite similar forebodings.
It is certain that if we look at states which used to be accounted strongholds of one party or another we encounter portents of party disintegration such as were witnessed in 1854. Missouri was wrenched from the Democratic column in 1904. On the other side, Ohio chose last year a Democratic governor, and even Pennsylvania elected a Democratic state trersurer. In the last named state this year Democratic and Republican reformers have united upon a ticket which promises to be successful. Even in New Jersey, the populous counties of Hudson and Essex are honeycombed with revolt against the regular Republican organization. In the Empire commonwealth nobody knows who will get the Republican nomination for the governorship, and no wise man wants it. The only kind of peace attainable between the followers of Higgins, Odell and Platt is the kind preached by Joab to Abner when he drove his knife under the fifth rib. Besides, so long as Theodore Roosevelt stands aloof from the contest, who knows how much substance there is left to the Republican party? There are close observers in the city and up-state who allege that the Hearst propaganda has eaten deep into its bowels. If we try, on the other hand, to forecast the course of the Democratic party in this state we find ourselves equally at sea. The old parties are smitten with a wasting malady. All can see the disease; but where is the physician?
There is no doubt that from the welter of discord and mutiny a new political order will ultimately be evolved. But shall we have long to wait for it, as we waited when parties broke up in 1854? Or will it come quickly and decisively, as it might if Demacrats should put forward a leader possessed of Roosevelt's vitalizing personality?

Afro-Americanism
Peter §. Barrow, a well-knwn Spokane Afro-
American, died in Tacoma last week from the effects
os having been thrown from a street car while at-
tending a Baptist association in that cisy. Mr. Bar-
row had been a resident of Spokane for nearly twenty
years, and for a number of years was a conspicuous
figure in the Populist political party both of the state
and of the county. He wasa candidate for Presi
dential elector in 1896 and subsequently was the re-
cipient of small political favors at the bands of his
party. Peter Barrow hailed from Vicksburg, Miss.,
where before the war he was a slave. In reconstruc-
tion days he entered the political arenaand was elect-
ed to the legislature from Warren county, in which
county Vicksburg is situated, and according to news-
paper clippings relative to the doings of that legisla-
ture, found in a scrap book, the property of another
prominent Negro politician of that state, he made a
splendid record. It was Mr. Barrow’s boast in life
that he was the first representative in the
United States to cast a vote for a Negro United States
senator. The names of the members being arranged
alphabetically and no name beginning with the firs;
letter Barrow was the first to be called, and he voted
for the Hon. Hiram R. Revels, who was elected on
first ballot and served the four years of Jefferson
Davis’ unexpired term. A copy of said record is in
the possession of the editor hereof, and bear out the
statement made by Mr. Barrow. Only two admitted
Negroes ever served in the United States senate, viz:
Hon. Hiram R. Revels and Hon. B. K. Bruce, both
from Mississippi; the former serving four years
while the latter served six years.
BUSINESS MEN’S LEAGUE
* The three last days of this month the Negro Busi-
ness Men’s League will be in session at Atlanta, Ga.
Multiplied hundreds of Negrees from all parts of this
country will be present, and some time during the
deliberations of the league they will each tell of their
business experiences at their respective homes. The
head of this organization is that great industrial edu-
cator Prof. Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee In-
stitute. It is a splendid annual coming together of
the Negro and canuot fail to produce good results
for the race all over the country. There is a crying
demand, even among the Negroes themselves, for
the best of everything, though one of their blood be
the vendor.
The Negro who thinks his effects for barter and
sale, though of an inferior grade, are good enough
for ‘‘enllud folk’’ is getting left, and deservedly so.
Nothing is more responsible for the poor success of
the Negro journalist than the fact that he or she edits
the paper with idle, silly talk and thinks it good
enough for Negroes. No wonder the Negro sub-
scriber tells the Negro editor ‘‘there is nothing in
your paper,” for the paper itself is a swift witness.
Good, wholesome literature the Negro demands
and wants, and if he cannot get it from a paper run
by a man of his own blood then he buys of someone
else, It is hoped that someone from Seattle will be
present in Atlanta to represent her Negro enter-
prises and energy, and The Seattle Republican would
suggest that a purse be made up and someone sent
there. The cost weuld be nominal, if a dozen or
more would chip in. The Seattle Republican is
ready to do its part toward raising funds for such a
delegate and has no choice.

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
TOO MUCH POLITICS
Proper political recognition for the Negro in the
various state and county governments of the United
States, and even in the federal yovernment, is a
much coveted boon and it is hoped by the Negro
everywhere that it will sooner or later come. Thu
Negro, however, would reap a greater harvest of suc-
cess if he himself would become the master of some
trade or become a specialist in some kind of art or
handicraft, so that his productions would be sought
after over all others for either their beauty or real
value, or both. For the past fourteen years or more
tuere has been a bi-annual scamble among the Ne-
groes of Seattle and King county for political recog-
nition, and despite their freequent threats to rebuke
the Republican party there is at present but one Ne-
gro drawing a salary from the county—Frank Abra-
hams, bailiff in Justice of the Peace George’s court—
and his white friends got him the job, and that, too,
over the protest of some of the most representative
Negroes in the county. Had the same amount of
energy been put on a potato or hop farm $100,000 at
least would have been realized from the investment.
The Negro in his life battle is overlooking the little
things all about him in his madness to become in-
fluential politicians and office-holders. This is an
age of specialists and the person who can make
something better than avyone else, or.do something
better than anyone else, is the person who will suc-
ceed and shine a thousand times brighter in the eyes
of the world than the man whose only stock in trade
is professional politics, and this is especially true of
the Negro.’ This is said advisediy, for from Maine
to Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific there
is an unwritten law among the whites: “keep the
Negro out of office,” and the law is obeyed. Being
feo on auinbers to change the code, why kick

NEGRO WOMEN IN FACTORIES
The employment by a large manufacturing firm
in Baltimore of about 400 Negresses as operatives
has given rise toa discussion in economics, especial-
ly in relation to white and colored labor. The em-
ployment of colored labor to such an extent in a line
of work that had formerly been monopclized by
white labor meant somewhat of and industrial inno-
vation, and it aroused consternation among white
workers in that particular field.
The charge was made that, as the Negro operat-
ives were cheaper than whites, the change was
made to curtail expenses. but the employers denied
this, and declared that the sole cause was the scarci-
ty of white labor. It is interesting in this connection
to learn that, while it is practically impossible to get
Negresses for domestic service, there is little trouble
in getting all that are wanted for work in factories,
A student of economics noting this fact naturally
infers that the Negro woman, attaining a higher
standa'd of education than ever before, is endeavor-
ing to elevate herself by seeking employment in a
field of labor which she considers less menial than
that to which she has heretofore been accustomed.
Sheis imbibing the sentiments fonnd everywhere
among white women who prefer work in factory or
shop to domestic service.
The natural protest by whites against the invasion
of Negro women as factory operatives is met by the
reply that there is no real reason to fear that it will
seriously affect the market for white labor, The
Negress, it is said, will be employed only when white
labor cannot be had. her work not being eutirely sat-
isfactory, and her main incentive for toil being to
support lazy male members of the family. The lat-
ter suggestion is evidently made by one who has
strong local prejudice against the male Negro.—
Spokeman-Review,
POLITICAL POT-PIE.
Now that Dr. J. J. Smith has withdrawn from the senatorial race in the Thirtieth district the Pie-maker desires to suggest the name of Dr. C. E. Hoye of Ravensdale for the place. If he is nominated all factions will be pleased, for aside from the fact that he is very popular he is free from factional fusses, and would poll more than his party strength. He is particularly strong among the mining camps, and having lived in Auburn for many years he is likewise popular in that locality, and on the whole he would make an ideal candidate for state senator. The name of W. H. Clark has also been suggested, but it would be unwise to nominate him, for he would not be elected. Mr. Clark unfortunately has made many political enemies in the district, who would fight him from Enumclaw to Burton and defeat him.
The 'push' in the Thirtieth senatorial district proposes to nominate I. B. Knickerbocker instead of Dr. J. J. Smith, who is to be held in reserve for the gubernatorial nomination in 1908.
It is being hinted that W. A. Carle may be withdrawn from the commissioner fight and may be given the senatorial nomination from the Thirty-first, thereby eliminating both Van De Vanter and Nichols. Gen. George W. Tibbetts will perhaps be sent to the house of representatives.
A free-for-all fight is still being waged in the Thirty-second, with the odds seemingly favoring no particular one of the aspirants. Rawson and Williams are fighting for the Ninth ward; Watson Allen and E. M. Mann are battling for the Tenth ward, and Tom Page is hoping to get the Eleventh.
Abe Kistler seems to have the inside track over in the Thirty-third, though Senator Piles has not fully given up the hope of landing Plinny Allen. Kistler would be generally acceptable.
George U. Piper will be nominated in the Thirty-fourth hands down. He will have every precinct in the Fourth ward and will give Weir battle in one precinct of the First ward, Clancy to the contrary, notwithstanding.
Billy Potts apparently has the best of the contest in the Thirty-fifth, although if Renick or Jeffries could line up the Fourth precinct of the Fifth ward with a "house" candidate Bily would have the largest number of delegates, but not enough to nominate, and the combine would give him trouble. If, on the other hand, Billy lines up with the fourth or fifth precincts of the Fifth ward, or the Seventh ward precincts, then the other candidates would not be in it for a minute.
Joe Lyons, thus far, is without oppositon in the Thirty-sixth. There are a number of aspirants for the lower house, but none seem to care to tackle the senate thus far, leaving Joe a walkover for the nomination.
In the Thirty-seventh is where the hard fighting will be done. Both Senator Palmer and Representative-Attorney-General-Would-Be-Senator Booth propose to put up the scrap of their lives to win

GEORGE V. GAU
The candidacy of George V. Gau for the nomination of county assessor is by no means in the hands of a few politicians, but like a spontaneous confligation is breaking out here and there and everywhere, which looks very flattering to both himself and his friends. Mr. Gau has been a resident of Seattle for the past seventeen years, and during that time has made and maintained a host of friends, who will endeavor at their first opportunity to do him a good turn by casting a vote in the primaries and in the convention with the view of nominating him for the position he is now seeking. For the past two years Mr. Gau has been the bailiff in Judge George E. Morris' court, and in that capacity he has never made an enemy. He is strong in the country districts and says he has no fears of the city precincts. If nominated and elected he will give the county a most excellent administration.
The assessor's fight is getting to be an exceedingly interesting one. There are five avowed candidates for the nomination and each of them have more or less positive strength. The respective aspirants are as follows: George V. Gau, Hugh Goodfellow, Chester Eaton, W. A. Bailey and Steve Meek. Gau is an old-time political war-horse and knows the ropes, and if the bunch don't watch him he will have votes to spare after he has been nominated. Chester Eaton has had four years' experience in the office and has been doing some drilling himself, and he may be able to show as formidable an array of delegates as Gau. Mr. Eaton is a "son of a veteran," and will get a great deal of Grand Army strength. W. A. Bailey is also a very much alive candidate. He has many friends throughout the county, and being a member of the Grand Army may show up with a great many more votes than his opponents think for. Steve Meek is simply sawing wood and saying nothing, and still water runs deep. He will have the Sixth ward and Dick Kinnear to start out with, and that's a whole lot in a free-for-all fight in King county. Meek will have to be reckoned with before the contest will have been settled
Claude C. Ramsey will be the Fourth ward nominee for the house of representatives in the next legislature. Mr. Ramsey is one of the most popular young business men in the city, and would make an efficient lawmaker.

Two better friends to laboring people were never in public life in this state than Judges Crow and Root. If any demagogue thinks he can turn the laboring people against them he is woefully mistaken. Actions speak louder than words, Their private and public careers show an honest, loyal friendship for poor people and the laboring class that cannot be hidden by tricks of the enemy.
The Republican county central committee met last Monday afternoon and decided to hold the next county convention Thursday, September 4, and the primaries August 31.
J. Hamilton Lewis was a candidate for vice president in 1900, and while in Chicago went to stop at a boarding house, so he says. A friend who was with him said to the porter, whom they met in the hall: "Jim, you'd better be good to this man; he may be president some day." After looking Mr. Lewis over very carefull, the porter replied: "I hates to be disrispeckful to any of yo' friends, Mr. Jones, but when dis man's president I reckon I'll be Gawd."—Orator-Outburst.

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.

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.

August 10, 190
Much has been said from time to time in the daily and weekly papers along the line that the Hon. R. L. McCormick of Tacoma would be a candidate for United States senator to succeed Senator Levi Ankeny in 1909, but neither Mr. McCormick nor anyone else with authority to speak for him has made any declaration, one way or another, on the subject. If he has any such intentions he is keeping his own counsel. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN, however, has recently seen a large number of prominent Republicans who reside in Western Washington, and an overwhelming majority of them seem inclined to favor the candidacy of Mr. McCormick for United States senator in 1909, if he should decide to be a candidate, and many of them are urging him to so announce himself. The Tacoma daily and weekly press favor him and the hold-over state senatorial aspirants are already pledging him their support in the event he decides to become an active candidate. Support from the southwest is volunteering to stand pat for him, as well as from the northwest. He has many admirers in King county, and owing to the general good character of the man, it is barely probable that half of the hold-over senators, elected from King county next November, will be found supporting Mr. McCormick for United States senator in 1909.

FOR COUNTY CORONER.
I hereby announce my candidacy for county coroner, subject to the will of the next Republican county convention.

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.

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.

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. CHESTER EATON.
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.
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.

sin, where for many years he was one of the foremost Republicans of the state. He came to Washington several years ago and at once took a prominent as well as active place in the councils of the Republican party of the state. He is a most pleasing and affiable gentleman, easily approached and quick to make friends, which accounts for the public popularity that has been thrust upon him during his five years' stay in Tacoma, while others have spent a lifetime trying to obtain it. With the latent political strength that is daily offering to become active in his interest there is no doubt but that he would become a power in senatorial politics should he decide to make a fight for the election at the hands of the legislature of 1909.
"I am not talking politics, but if R. L. McCormick goes tnto the senatorial fight the other fellow will know he is in it. He will, in my opinion, go to Olympia with a following in the legislature that would have to be reckoned with," said State Senator Davis.
"Tacoma never had a more congenial and affable gentleman than R. L. McCormick," said Dr. Le Crone one day this week, "and if he decides to be a candidate for United States senator he will be a most formidable one. He has made many friends, both in and out of Tacoma, and he seems to never do business with a man who does not go away from him his friend."
