Certainly not, he is a gentleman. If John W. Considine has ever seen better days he has no recollection of it. It is said of the recent state Democratic convention that, "it was a calm and peaceful affair." There being nothing in sight, what more could have been expected. District Attorney Jerome declares he will support Hughes for governor of New York. This is the first cause for real congratulations that has come to Candidate Hearst. Four million dollars loss by storm for the South "ain't so bad." A few more such calamities might bring the lords of the South to the stern realization that there are others. And Congressman Jones is to cross swords at the polls with a Black man. This, perhaps, is a phase of the race question that Mr. Jones as a resident of the Evergreen State never dreamed he would have to face. Even organized labor will find no serious objections to a wholesome "referendum law." The voters in all parties are demanding that people and not the bosses have the right to say what must and shall be in the shape of legislation. When Senator Ankeny at the state convention applauded the speaker who was telling of the good work of the senior senator from this state, he realized that was a point in the speech that needed his particular support, and he therefore led in the applause. Secretary Root as a peace bearer to South America was like unto the famous cow that gave a great vessel of milk and then kicked it over, for on his way home he stopped long enough to blot out a republic and gobble up the island in the name of President Roosevelt. Uncle Billy Cochrane has paid over to King county some $1,500.00 for the fun of shooting his neighbor, but having money to burn he is quite able at that rate to shoot a whole cow pen full of his neighbors and --- SEATTLLE, WASHINGTON OCTOBER 5, 1906. yet die in affluent financial circumstances. That's the nice thing of being the "man behind the bank book." Ah, but there's things doing at the White House now, the President and his family have returned. Atlanta, Georgia, may not be in Russia, but no one will deny that it has been recently doing a Russian business. One thousand a month for Mr. Gillette is going some in the shape of a salary, but what of that, the state pays the bill. Uncle Sam will now be able to better teach the whites in Cuba how to successfully operate a "white man's government." Owing to the numerous Southern excitements the Russian troubles have been almost overlooked for the past fortnight or more. "In union is strength," quotes the Union Record. That's so, but our experience with unions would lead us to qualify the quotation by saying, "in union is beer." "Dear Brother Democrat letters" of appeal occasionally fall into the hands of rock ribbed Republicans, as the editor of the Mail and Herald has found out from some it has sent out. Election Officers L. W. Huney and Edward J. Parkinson would hardly be considered "two of a kind" and yet they are in "the same boat." The Democratic party has never shown any very great amount of love for the Negro, but, all the same, it nominated a Black man for Congress the other day and that's more than the Republicans of this state have done. Joe Smith of Utah five-wives fame, with all of his faults, claims no relationship to Joe Smith of Seattle journalistic fame, and yet there must be a grain of kinsmanship somewhere down the line. Hearst reiterates he is not for Murphy, the Tammany boss. When the votes will have been counted after the November election perhaps Hearst will discover Murphy or some one else was not for him. Now that the S. E. Co. has given its street car men more salary let's hope that the conductors will at least return the passengers their change even though they do not always ring up their fares. Cuba is now theoretically as well as practically a part of Uncle Sam's domain.

Taft, intervened and set up a provisional government. It was a long time coming to light, but the broad intimation on the part of The Seattle Republican in 1904, that in the inner circles of the state land commissioner's office there was something rotten in Denmark, is beginning to show up. That the employes in that office were using their official knowledge to feather their own nests at the expense of the state was a whisper about the state house at that time and now the public does not doubt it. Who, in official life, is straight? At the Democratic convention in Pierce county a local paper is of the opinion that, "there was hardly a decent show of cheerfulness." Evidently the Democratic ass all over the country has lost his power of braying, which accounts for his poor showing in conventions this year. Harry Orchard, on whose testimony the detectives promised to convict Moyer and Haywood, is a raving maniac. Annanias was struck dead for lying and now Orchard has been struck crazy for the same offense, and yet some folk do not believe that "history repeats itself." Gothamites are reported the easiest victims for confidence men in Paris and Europe in general, so comes the report. The damphools who are always chasing after European titles could expect no more. There is a heavy demand for good butter in Conconully," says the Record thereof, no greater demand, however, than there is for it in Seattle and in fact everywhere else where butter stuff is used. If out of the 214 proposed changes in the name of the Seattle streets a Mullen street does not appear then there will be a missing link in historic annals of Greater Seattle. The white man, the black man, the Dago, the Chink and the Jap all did their part A.- Y.-P. day. Wonderful is the Seattle spirit. Now that the Alaska-Yukon Exposition is an assured fact it is the duty of the citizens in Seattle to get busy with the view of trying to induce every national organization that meets in the year 1909 to come to Seattle to hold their meetings. That would be the means, if successful, in bringing more visitors to the exposition than all the other kind of advertising the officials of the exposition, the Chamber of Commerce or the city authorities could possibly do. One man can not do it all and therefore a united effort on the part of all should be made after one has suggested the matter. POLITICAL POT-PIE. Both the state and the county campaign committees are located in the Brunswick hotel and the respective chairmen and clerks are busy shaping up the details for the coming battle of ballots. Secretary J. Will Lysons is in his accustomed campaign seat and looks perfectly natural. He had thought of directing his part of the work from Olympia, but when Will sniffs a battle even from afar he has to get up and get there. * * * State Chairman Ellis De Bruler is making his maiden effort at conducting a state campaign, but having surrounded himself with the "old guard" and being one of the most sagacious politicians in Seattle, he has no fears of the outcome. Speakers will be put on the stump next week and a splendid campaign will be put up. Not so much because the Republican nominees are in any immediate danger but to get out the vote in order to make a good showing for two years from now. * * * Chairman D. C. Conover, of the county committee, like Mr. De Bruler, is making his maiden effort in directing a campaign, but he, again like Mr. De Bruler, is a political general and so well versed in local politics that he can hardly make any mistake. The Democrats have not put up a ticket of normal strength, but Mr. Conover will fight for a big vote that King county will make a splendid showing in subsequent councils of the party. * * * Secretary Sidney J. Williams has been mixed up in county committees for two or more campaigns and is therefore quite conversant in campaign work. He is training his guns well on the breastworks of the Democrats, and if he does not bag his whole ticket he will be the most disappointed man in King county. He will have his speakers for the campaign well in hand by the end of the week when the heavy work will begin. * * * Gen. George W. Tibbetts, the veteran war horse of Issaquah, was at the headquarters last Wednesday and made good reports of the outlook for a sweeping victory. Gen. Tibbetts is on the ticket for representative from the forty-first representative district. Four years ago he was nominated and elected to the legislature from same district and made a most excellent member. THE SEATTLE SPIRIT. The Seattle Spirit rose to the supreme test last Wednesday and subscribed, not only the necessary $500,000 for the expedition, but went even a step further and raised an extra $100,000 for emergency. Whenever Seattle and her enterprising citizens undertake to do a thing they do it and they do it not by halves, but jam up to the notch. All classes of citizens poured their golden grains into the office of the exposition and it has required an army of clerks to tabulate the THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN subscriptions made. The beauty of the whole thing was that, the amount was all subscribed the same day the books were opened. All this means that the exposition in 1909 will be equally as great a success as was the subscribing of the stock. * * * As shown by this morning's dispatches, those bold and enterprising spirits of Seattle who have taken up the task of holding there in 1909 an Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition, have achieved a brilliant success in their preliminary work of financing the fair. Seattle business and property interests have subscribed half a million dollars. They will now ask the various states of the Pacific west to lend substantial encouragement by legislative appropriations for state buildings and exhibits. It is a magnificent undertaking. The purpose is to educate not only the American people, but the world, on the stupendous resources of Alaska, British Yukon, the Pacific west and Pacific commerce. The people of the United States have been slow to realize the immense natural resources which they acquired through Seward's purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867 for $7,-200,000. We know, by authority of the United States government, that the Alaskan fisheries are among the richest on the globe. We know that the gold output of Alaska last year was nearly $16,000,000 and that of British Yukon more than $8,000,000 additional. We know that some of the world's greatest forests are standing in portions of Alaska, and we know that the surface copper wealth of that country probably exceeds that of any other region on earth. This much at least has been revealed by the somewhat superficial exploration and development already given to that vast territory. But Alaska is so large, so unexplored, and so undeveloped, that it is reasonable to believe we shall not have full knowledge of its resources and possibilities within another half century. In area it is eight times as big as Washington, two and one half times as Texas, 70 times as Massachusetts and 500 times as Rhode Island. It will take a long while to explore and develop so vast a territory.—Spokesman-Review. *** Seattle may not be growing so fast that the mountain lions can not keep out of her way and actually get caught on her streets, as was once alleged by a newspaper correspondent in reply to a bit of fun poked at Seattle by a rival town correspondent because a mountain lion was killed in the heart of the city, but she is growing so fast that her citizens do not actually realize how rapidly she is growing. The workingman, who is constantly employed during the week and does not stroll about the city to any great extent on Sundays, when he does go out to a section of the city that he has not visited for a year or more, is not able to realize that he is still in Seattle, things in the course of a year having so greatly changed in that section of the city. If in 1909 Seattle has not a population double what she now has the citizen of today, who is keeping actual tab on the growth of the city, will be much surprised. October 5 1906 It speaks well for Seattle when one of her citizens is selected by an Eastern concern to distribute thousands of dollars to the citizens of San Francisco. Jacob Furth, the well known banker and promoter, returned from San Francisco last Sunday after spending a week or more there distributing a large sum of money for an insurance company and says the once beautiful San Francisco is still in a dilapidated condition and that the authorities are still struggling with the question of properly housing those who were left penniless in the late disaster. If some of the famous Americans would, like the famous Briton, lose the power of speech, the United States government would be a hundred per cent better off, for example, one Billy Buster.

Interest JAMES D. HOGE., PRES. G. B. SOLNER, CASH Agents for Alaska Banking and Safe Deposit Co., Nome --- WHAT OF THE POOR BLACK WOMAN? October 5. 1906 Is the presence of the black man in the United States a menace to the peace and happiness of the citizens thereof? This is a question that has either been openly asked or thought of by every white man not only in the United States, but in every country throughout Christendom, who has read the daily papers sufficiently to have acquainted himself of the recent race riots in Atlanta, where, it is officially reported, the black man stands head and shoulders above the black folk of any other section of the United States, financially, educationally and in social affairs. If the reported amount of crime either committed or attempted by black brutes on white women in and about Atlanta be really true, then even the well bred black man is put to a standstill for an answer to the question set out herein. The man that will invade the home of another for the dastardly purpose of outraging his wife or daughter by main force and violence is deserving of death as cruel and crude as man can conjure up in a revengeful brain; and that too whether the criminal has a black or a white skin. The raping of an innocent woman on the part of a burly bante is a crime in comparison to which murder itself pales into infinitesimal insignificance. Robbing women of tender years of their virtue on the part of libertines and gay lotharioes even when not done in violence, is a dastardly act and the parent of such a female is almost justified in the sight of the law, but quite so in the sight of man's moral code, in shooting such despoiler down like a dog at sight. The virtue of women all over the United States is held in too low estimation by the men, and the above seems more than applicable to the men of the South, where according to the last census, there are three million mulattoes, the results of illicit relations between white men and black women, some of whom, black though they be, were perhaps robbed of their virtue. In editorially commenting on the recent Atlanta horror the Bellingham Reveille felt called upon to speak thusly: "The people of the North who only see the self-respecting colored barber, the polite porter and the cheerful bootblack, can have no conception of the bestial creature known as the cornfield Negro. He is of a type so low as to scarcely be classed as a human being and his instincts are those of the beasts of the jungle. He has absolutely no control over his passions and the sight of an unprotected white female obesses him and a brutal and awful assault follows. In certain parts of the South no man ever thinks of leaving his wife and children alone for even an hour, as these fiends are lurking around, seeking opportunities for the gratification of their lust. Every woman is trained in the use of fire arms and many have had to resort to the use thereof to protect the honor and persons of themselves and children." No statement that ever appeared in print is more false. Even the Southern whites themselves will deny the allegation and not only deny it, but brand it as a bad, black lie. In the rural districts where the "Cornfield Negro" is from four to five times more numerous than the whites, the raping of white women is a crime unheard of. Not only are the white women not afraid of the Negro men about the farm, but the owners of plantations where scores of black men are employed, go away from home for days and entrust the protection of their families to one or all of the Negroes. The white girls stroll about over the farm at will without having any fear of ever being disturbed by the "Cornfield Negro." In fact, they look upon him more in the same light THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN of their big black pet dog than a dangerous dragon. During the great civil war while the white men were at the front fighting for perpetuation of Negro slavery their wives and children were being cared for by the cornfield Negro, and their virtue was as religiously protected as if a dozen white armed guards stood on duty to keep the black devils down. In making the above statement we believe we voice the sentiment of every white man from the South. It is very doubtful if ten per cent. of the white women of the South are versed in the use of fire arms and not one-half so well adapted to the use of them as their Northern white sister, and not called upon to use them in defense of their homes one time in a hundred as often as she is always in hourly dread of the hobo tramp common to the North. Negroes are never tramps and when a "Cornfield Negro" commits a crime it is in the form of revenge, which is confined to some form of petit malicious mischief, but never to the personal injury of the white man or woman. He may take advantage of the female of his own race, but he thinks he has a license to do that, and if he has not he sees the white man doing it, and being black like himself, it is beyond his understanding why he cannot do as Mistah Brown. Again the Reeille is quoted: A legal execution, it has been found, has little or no effect upon the repression of these awful crimes and some close students of the question say that a hanging, by law, is followed by an increase in these crimes. The reason may be found in the character of the lower Negroes. When a brute is caught red-handed and put in jail he is visited by a preacher or voodoo man of his sect. By means of cantations and wierd prayers the prisoner is goaten into an exalted frame of mind. He ascends the scaffold with firm step and glorified face, secure in the belief that he is on the direct road to heaven. There is a smile on his lips, a song in his heart, and he feels himself a martyr." If in any of the Southern states a Negro preacher should visit the cell of a Negro, convicted of the crime of raping a white woman, the said preacher himself would be mobbed before he got ten steps from the jail. When a Negro is charged with attempting to, or assaulting a white woman it matters not what kind of punishment he is doomed to, the other Negroes refrain from commenting on it or even visiting the doomed man, lest those doing so be similarly treated the following night. Every word therefore published by the "Reveille" on this subject is absolutely false, and whether they were published because the editor was himself ignorant of the facts and was imposed upon by some unscrupulous person or he permitted his prejudices against the Negro to so warp his judgment as to lead him to make statements that he could not verify and at which the white man of the South snickers in his sleeve, the writer verily doth not know. That in the dives of the cities where hundreds of idle and worthless Negroes congregate and carouse through the long hours of the night, year in and year out, may be found criminals, who would attempt to rape even an angel from heaven, much less an ordinary working white woman, the writer does not doubt, but is not the very same true of the whites, who frequent dives in both Southern and Northern cities? Are not the courts of even Seattle, constantly sending wretches to the penitentiary for inducing innocent girls to the haunts of hell where they are ruined at once? Loafing city Negroes as a rule are very criminal, but its almost sacrilegious to speak of the "Cornfield Ne- Page 3 gro" as has the "Reveille," for he has always been looked upon as being more docile than the back yard dog. But, after all, was there sufficient provocation for the Atlanta riot, in which a hundred or more Negroes and one or two white men were killed outright, and many on both sides more or less injured, as well as thousands of dollars worth of property destroyed? Grant for the sake of argument that a number of outrages were attempted on white women by Negroes, yet not one was actually committed except the one the black woman committed on the white man and that often happens without even the man so assaulted making any demonstrative objections. With the machinery of law all in the hands of the whites, those black wretches could have been detected, arrested, tried, convicted and hanged all in one day. But is it not remarkable beyond understanding that Negeoes would rape or attempt to rape white women in the South when they know it means certain death, whether caught or not, for if the actual culprit is not caught one or two innocent Negroes are lynched for the sake of example. Then again: Why is the crime committed by a Negro any more heinous than the same crime committed by a white man? Right here in the state of Washington more white men are arrested in one year on the charge of assaulting white women than there are Negroes arrested and lynched for the same length of time and for a similar crime, in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia combined; and yet for that particular crime no one has ever been lynched in the state of Washington, though the penitentiary is overflowing with them as convicts. Think of it. The Negro in and about Atlanta has a world-wide fame for the progress he has made in a financial and educational way and, according to the last census, he pays taxes on $15,000,000.00 worth of farm lands in the state and equally as much on his real city property. There he has the most famous schools in the South and his relations with the whites have been most amicable. But a month ago the mayor of Atlanta and the governor of the state welcomed in the warmest terms the National Negro Business Men's League within its gates and the white business men contributed large sums of money for the entertainment of the hundreds of delegates. These being well known facts, why this awful outbreak? is a question that many would like to hear satisfactorily answered. Between the blacks and the poor whites of the South there has ever existed a natural enmity, which has always been fostered and fed by the wealthier whites, perhaps for selfish and natural motives, and it is barely possible that jealousy over the success of the black man in Atlanta on the part of the poor whites had much to do with the bloody riots there. In his recent campaign for the gubernatorial nomination of Georgia Hoke Smith appealed and pleaded to the prejudices of the poor whites for the nomination on the promise that, if nominated he would arrest the progress of the Negro; disfranchise him as he had been in other Southern states, and in short utilize all of his official energies toward reducing the Negro of Georgia to a state of serfdom instead of being a competitor in the realm of labor with the working class of the whites. That sounded good to them and Hoke outstripped his opponent to one in the contest. That element of the whites having won out the anti-Negro feeling which for a couple of years or more had been slowly but surely gaining strength, at once became intolerant, and soon culminated into an awful demonstration. Under the circumstances, if those black faces which simultaneously appeared at the windows of white women, were not the blackened faces of white men for the purpose of inciting their brethren to riotous demonstration, then the indications point to just such a deception. One Negro may attempt the crime of rape, but a number of Negroes never plan a wholesale raping bee in different parts of a city at one and the same time. Regardless of the real facts however, of this Atlanta riot, what is the remedy, you ask? There seems but one reasonable remedy and that is for the Negro of the South to scatter to all parts of the Western continent, and some, if they so desire, to even Africa, as advocated by Bishop Turner. No great numbers of them however will go to Africa and, it is not herein advised, but for them to scatter all over the United States and have no more "black belts" seems to be the only remedy to prevent similar outbreaks. Seattle today could use one-thousand colored women as servants at a hundred per cent. better wages than they are getting in the South, and in a week after they had landed at the union depot their presence would not be noticed upon her streets. The farms and public improvements in the state could use ten thousand Negro men and their presence would not create a ripple in the labor world, so pressing is the demand for labor, which will continue for the next three years at least. As in Seattle and the state so also could a similar number be used in Tacoma, Portland, Spokane and proportionately in all of the towns of the West and Northwest and in every state west of the Missouri river. Such a breaking up might cause temporary annoyance to both the blacks and the whites in the South, but better suffer temporary annoyance than have periodical outbreaks throughout the South such as Atlanta recently underwent. The world seldom if ever, gets the black man's side of the story, for, if the Associated Press should give his side of it, the news gatherer would not last long in the Sunny South. The white men of the South are to be congratulated for their watchful care of the honor of the white woman, but what of the poor black woman? With the three-million mulattoes in the South and none of them the offspring of white mothers and black fathers, it looks as if the white men of the South do not practice just what they preach. How many black mothers' and fathers' hearts that have been made to bleed over the downfall of their daughters to satisfy the criminal lusts of white men, one can only imagine from the great army of half-csste children found all over the South. Thousands of such offspring are acting wisely and coming North, East and West and are associating themselves with the whites. Even in Seattle, hundreds of persons who were only "niggers" where they were born, are influential white men and women in Seattle, and why not? "God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform," and perhaps the illicit relations going on between the white men and black women of the South is His way of bringing the two races together in the United States. H. R. CAYTON. NOT CONSISTENT. And now comes the Anacortes American and demands of the mill owners in that section to discharge certain classes of foreigners who are objectionable to the community. It says: "There are now about twenty Hindus in Bellingham, all having come in since the first of January, and so rapidly are they increasing that a movement THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN has been started by the white employes of the Bellingham Bay Lumber company asking that the East Indians be discharged. The Hindus are said to be sober and industrious workmen, but they are objected to upon the same ground that the influx of Chinese has been so bitterly opposed. They herd together like hogs in small hovels and holes in the wall; they live very cheaply and hoard their money, and after a few years they will return to their native land taking their earnings with them. Not a Chinaman in a hundred who comes to the United States becomes a citizen of the country, and he has been liberally abused for sending his earnings back to his native land, but in this respect he is no worse than many thousands of Italians who seek employment in this elysium. It is reported that a single bank in Naples receives each year almost two and one-half millions of dollars from Italians residing temporarily in the United States and South America." How very inconsistent. If the mill owners would bring Afro-Americans, who spend every dollar they earn at home, you would register a protest no less pointed than the above. A sufficient number of white men are not to be had to do the work and under the circumstances what are the mill operators to do? A DAY OF PRAYER. Bishop A Walters of the Zion African M. E. church, as president of the Afro-Amererican Council, has issued an appeal to the Afro-Americans to meet all over the United States for prayer next Sunday, October 7th. The following is his appeal: "In these days when so many men of power and influence aided by a prejudicial press are using their office of trust and honor to degrade and destroy ten million American citizens, and the greater majority of sixty million people look on in silence, it is time for the ten million thus oppressed to rise in their own defense. "When the Israelites were oppressed, Mordecai called them to their knees and he with them in dust and ashes, cried unto the God of the oppressed, who heard them. At a crisis in the early history of the struggle of the American people for independence, George Washington turned to that same God; and the yoke of bondage slaves, are called to their knees on Sunday, October 7, before the God who has promised, 'I will answer while they are yet calling.' "By the authority invested in us, The Afro-American Council proclaims it to be a day of prayer for all citizens of color and all others who love righteousness, and beg that in their petition they be seech the Almighty to cause JUSTICE. "The hope of all who suffer, The dread of all who do wrong' "To be done to all the people in all the states and by all the officials. "That we do earnestly beseech Him who can change the king's heart, and is interested in the welfare of all of His creatures—that he cause men to know that the Golden Rule has not been revoked and that the gospel of 'Peace on earth, good will to men' must be preached and practiced by His disciples." "I'm Not Afraid." A young lad lay dying and the broken-hearted father was kneeling by the bed side. "Willie," he said, "I have a sad message for you; the doctor tells me you are dying." The boy closed his eyes for a moment and then as a sweet smile stole across his face, he opened them and said: "Papa, I'm not afraid to die, and when I die I'll hurry up and find Jesus and tell him I had the best papa in the world because you taught me all my days to love him." POLITICS AND POLITICIANS Henry B. Martin, secretary of the American Anti Trust League, has declared himself in favor of the nomination of William Sulzer for governor of New York at the Democratic state convention to be held in Buffalo. * * * Union labor politics in Illinois have begun to plan the downfall of Speaker Cannon in the Eighteenth Illinois District. A band of Chicago laboring men is to visit Danville, the home town of the speaker, to begin an aggressive campaign against him. * * * The historic name of John A. Dix, reappears in New York politics. The Washington county Democrats, ignoring Jerome, Hearst, et al, have brought forward Mr John A Dix, a nephew of the famous general, as their choice for governor. * * * Four sky scrapers are in actual course of erection in Seattle and equally as many more are under consideration with fair prospects of them being favorably acted upon, and if they materialize as they probably will by the time of the exposition, Seattle will be the most imposing looking city on the Pacific coast, the most imposing looking city this side of Chicago and, in fact, the New York of the Pacific Coast. You are living in a great city and if you do not keep up with the procession you will undoubtedly be so badly lost in the hurry that you will never be even seen again. * * * Shooting down human beings is becoming a rather commonplace incident in Seattle If that is a sign of greatness then a whole lot of us would rather see her not quite so great. Owing to the absence of actual facts, the shooting down of Jesse Hall by his father-in-law, Constantine, last Monday morning over family troubles, the public is not in a position to criticise or pass opinion on the matter further than to say, there is altogether too many gun plays and gun actions in Seattle for her own good. The father, however, does not live that would not shoot the heart out of a man that would mistreat his daughter, even though she was married to him, and the jury has never assembled that would convict him for so doing. There is entirely too much abusing of women by men who spend their evenings at the club and come home in a semi-drunken condition and abuse their. wives because there is not a Chinaman convenient, and because they were afraid to tackle the fellow who had slapped his face for some insult while carousing at some down town resort.
