Coming events—The assembling of the Washington legislature and the grafters. We may be a year older, but we do not feel it and we certainly hope we do not look it. Grafters may not always graft, but when they do not you can rest assured it's no fault of theirs. Yes, dear reader, we have a good thing and you can get in on the ground floor by sending $2 for The Seattle Republican, the price of a year's subscription. At the rapid rate the old pioneers of Seattle are dropping off it will not be but a few years more before the settling of this section will be only a matter of history. Jim Hill of course intends to retire, but he wants to hold things together until he can retire without injury to his interests and he is not quite clear as yet when that time will come round. We wish the immortal Lincoln could have been present incog at the emancipation celebration held in this city New Year and he would have heard some mighty nice things about himself. In the late campaign President Roosevelt prayed to the people to return to him a Republican Congress, which he got. We wonder if just now he does not sorely regret that he got what he prayed for. Bryan is too much of a hot air artist to ever be president of the United States. No man who chases the country over as he does endeavoring to make the general public believe he is the only good thing will ever succeed in being elected to the presidential chair. Senator Booth has no intention of doing anything that will in any way injure Senator Piles' political future, and he therefore is curious to know how in shutting out the legislative grafters Senator Piles' future will be disturbed unless the Senator is per- CUPID CROSSDOG SEATTLLE, WASHINGTON JANUARY 4, 1907. sonally interested in the success of the graft ers. It's no idle dream to say the P.-I.'s Prosperous Washington number is the most complete thing that was ever published in the state. Its 165 pages and cover are full of meat for thought both for those already interested in the state of Washington as well as those who may become interested therein. There is no reason in the world why it should not sell a million copies of the number. PASSING EVENTS. A social war of extermination has been declared on the uniformed soldiers of Fort Walla Walla by the "400" of the city of Walla Walla and the first move in that direction was when a Mrs. A. E. Painter, proprietress of a fashionable skating rink, refused to sell the soldiers desirous of visiting her skating rink any but "spectators' tickets," the amusements of the floor for skating being denied them, and she explained. "The soldiers are not taken in socially here and we can't take them in when they are not received anywhere else. The public won't have them. We have no objection to them ourselves, and I am sorry we have to exclude them, but there has been great objections to them among the select class who patronize us. You see, it is not like the theatre where they have seats. They mingle more here. So we have made a rule that no common soldier in uniform shall be allowed on the floor." Indignant at the social snub the soldiers threaten to call President Roosevelt's attention to it just as though President Roosevelt was a little Jesus or an absolute monarch of all he surveys. Negro troops were stationed at Ft. Walla Walla immediately preceding the present troops now there and the Negro troops were not only socially ostracised by Walla Walla's 400, but they were civilly ostracised and many if not all of the hotels, restaurants, theatres and places of amusement being closed against them—and yet they never once thought of calling President Roosevelt's attention to those insults and if they had they would have been drummed out of camp. Now let these fellows take their medicine as did the black boys. It's a clear case of not being wanted and you should not want to go where you are not wanted. LAST SUNDAY'S WRECK. The Baltimore & Ohio railroad, in which 45 persons were instantly kiled, thus ending the old year as she begun in blood and carnage, serves to remind us that a convention will be held in New York beginning January 28th and lasting two weeks under the auspices of the American Institute of Social Service for studying and exhibiting safety devices for dangerous machinery and other things to avoid fatal industrial accidents. PRICE TEN CENTS. Dr. Josiah Strong, president of the institute, has been looking into the subject and has this to say: "We in the United States kill in four years some 80,000 persons more than fell in battle and died of wounds during the four years of the Civil War. We are killing more than twice as many every year as perished by violence in both the French and English armies in the three years of the Crimean War. "There are more killed and wounded on our railroads every year than the entire losses of the Boer War on both sides in three years. We have industrial casualties enough every year to keep one conflict like our war with Spain going on 1,200 years, or twelve such wars going on for 100 years. Our peaceful vocations cost more lives every two days than were lost in battle during the entire Spanish War. "From the best statistics obtainable I may say there are today 575,000 persons in the United States under sentence of death to be executed at an unknown moment during the next ten years, 1,100 next week and the same number every week until the gnastly work is completed. An intelligent and earnest effort would procure the reprieve of a multitude of these innocent victims." OUR MANY CRIMINALS. Despite our boast of having reached the highest pinnacle of civilization of any other nation on the face of God's green earth, yet if the record of other American cities even favorably compares with that of Seattle then the great army of criminals in this "land of the free and home of the brave" is sufficiently large to threaten a war of extermination on all persons, who do not believe as do they. During the year 1906, which closed its eyes last Monday night at 12 o'clock, over 8,000 persons were arrested by the police in the city on either petit or felonious charges, and placing our population at 200,-000 it means one out of every twenty-five of the citizens of the city were hauled before the police judge on a criminal charge, to say nothing of the hundreds who were taken before the other two justices of the peace. All told one would be perfectly safe in saying one in every twenty persons living in Seattle were arrested some time last year. Of course Seattle is a seaport town and the slums of the earth drift here, but it looks as if our civilization was as much a criminal breeder as a Christian breeder. No country perhaps in the whole world has a worse criminal record and it begins to look as if it would be more beneficial for the United States to call in her foreign missionaries and put them to work at home. rage 2 Political Pot-Pie It is said that the Ankeny contingent in the state is going to play a deep political game in the senatorial contest, which will choose a successor to Senator Ankeny, and their scheme is none other than to have Chester Thorn, Bill Jones and even Frank Cushman nominated for senator from Pierce County, which will result in Pierce being all shot to pieces and neither of her candidates receive enough votes to make a decent showing. Then a senatorial candidate from the Ankeny bunch is to be nominated in Eastern Washington, but who can be saddled on to Senator Wilson by innuendo if nothing more, which candidate, it is hoped by the bunch, will scatter the votes for Jones, who will be Senator Ankeny's real opponent. With this army of candidates it is hoped by the bunch to make it an easy race for either Senator Ankeny, his heirs or assigns to succeed himself in the United States senate even if an iron-clad direct primary law be passed by the tenth legislature, which is soon to convene at Olympia. * * * All or a part of the above story is absolutely correct. The Pie-maker is not positive as to Congressman Cushman, though it is being declared by persons who ought to know whereof they speak, that Cush has been taken in out of the wet by his Uncle of Walla Walla and has consented to the above program in order to see that his "uncle" goes back to Washington. At the last state convention, however, it was common talk that Jones would be Ankeny's successor and that Cushman with a direct primary law in operation would succeed Piles, it being freely asserted that a popular vote between Piles and Cushman throughout the state would result in a two to one vote in favor of Cushman and that an even greater proportion would be given to Jones over Ankeny under similar conditions. The actions of the tenth legislature will be watched with intense interest, as everything it does will be construed as being but another move on the senatorial chessboard. * * * A move will be made to have the tenth legislature pass a metropolitan police bill with the view of taking the police systems of the various cities of the state of the first class rank out of local politics and be controlled by a state board. A better law could not have been suggested and in proof of the allegation the law has worked like a charm in every state in the Union when it has been tried, and none of them has ever tried to repeal the measure. Chief of Police Wappenstein of Seattle rushes into print post haste as being opposed to the measure, which is perfectly natural, for it would mean that he would have to hunt a new job in two weeks thereafter. It was political corruption pure and simple that made Weppenstein chief of the police in Seattle, which would not have been the case had there been a metropolitan police law in operation in this state. It was only a couple or more years before Wappenstein was named as chief of the police that he was forced to resign from the police force because an investigating committee of the THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN city council confronted him with charges that not only reflected on his official integrity, but went even a step further. By all means give us the metropolitan police law, which will to an extent purify the police systems of the state. * * * Mayor Moore of Seattle, a political What Is It, has locked horns with the city council over a successor to Street Commisisoner A. L. Walters. The mayor seems inclined to put a man in charge who is without any fitness for the place for no other reason than to pay off a big political debt. The council is a unit against the mayor's experiment and proposes to maintain Mr. Walters in the position. Those Republicans who supported Billy Moore for mayor to the detriment of John Riplinger must now feel like the Irishman that had eaten twenty-four ears of green corn on a wager. After retiring and in the dead hours of the night he was seized with violent cramps which threatened to end his existence, he began to pray for life, and among other things said: "O Lord, if you will come and take twelve of these ears of corn I will make out very well on the rest." Seattle has had one year of Moore and she has had all she wants of him. Take the other year, O Lord, and relieve us if it be possible. * * * SENATE.

Those who took part on the program handled their subjects with such adroitness as well as diplomacy that the most critically inclined would not have found cause for complaint. All of them had carefully prepared their papers and perfectly familiarized themselves with the reading of the same so that they were able to present them to their hearers in the most forcible manner. The Forum is to be congratulated in the program it presented on that occasion. The subject on which the president talked was full of statistics of the present status of the Negro and ended with a tribute to Abraham Lincoln and the Union soldiers and was followed by the reading of the proclamation by Miss Vivian Austin. [Name] ANDREW R. BLACK, "Our Professional Men." THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Mr. 1. Israel Walker was the first speaker of the evening and he had his audience with him from the very outset. He was loudly applauded throughout his address and a round of applause followed his closing words. Mrs. H. V. Ray's paper was brief, but well written. She is a pleasing reader and re- A. B. ceived many applauses. The most difficult subject on the program was that of Our Business Men, but Mr. Arthur G. Harrison I. ISRAEL WALKER, "Our Duty as American Citizens." handled it so well that he showed himself both an educator and a thinker. It was a real pleasure to hang on his last words until his next was heard. Every sentence went straight to the point and he was enthusiastically applauded. Mr. Andrew R. Black is ever the pleasing talker and his address on this occasion was no exception to the rule. He was calm, sauve and convincing and when he had finished all present entertained a very much different view of Our Professional Men than they had. Our Women, which was entertainingly discussed by Mr. Isham F. Norris, was not only interesting, but likewise amusing. Mr. Norris is one of the most effective public speakers among the Afro-Americans of the Northwest. January 4, 1607 The music furnished by the Mosart Musical Club was good, better, best and the duet by Misses Lydia and Sadie Clark was pleasingly rendered. The Forum will be entertained next Sunday afternoon by a musical concert under the auspices of Prof. Reed's Orchestra. The exercises will begin at 4 o'clock sharp and if you desire to hear the full program you must be present at 4 o'clock. TACOMA CELEBRATES. The Afro-Americans and the Anglo-Americans held a union service in Tacoma New Year's evening to celebrate the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation. It is said that there were even more whites than blacks at the meeting. Mr. Gustave Aldrich took the lead in arranging for the celebration and he was aided by a well selected committee. The program for the occasion was as follows: J. E. Hawkins, Master of Ceremonies. Voluntaries, Miss Daisy Lawhorn and Mrs. D. W. Gibson. Battle Hymn of the Republic, Miss Clifford Freeman. Invocation, Rev. S. S. Freeman. The Maid of Timbuco, Mrs. J. W. Kenedy. Somewhere Trio, Mrs. D. W. Gibson. Introductory, Master of Ceremonies. Pardon Came Too Late, Mrs. W. H. Hunter. Reading Emancipation Proclamation, Miss Blanche Rucker. Spider and the Fly. Mr. Will Drake. ```markdown ``` Emancipation Oration, Mr. Gustave Aldrich. Suannee River, Madam Du Pree and chorus.

RUNTANG CLOTHES PAUL KIRKMAN CUNDY THE OLD CLOTHES MAN "THE SKELETON AT THE FLAME" January 4, 1907 PERSONAL. Mr. J. E. Hawkins and Mr. W. C. Peoples spent New Year in the City of Destiny. Editor John H. Ryan, of Tacoma, was a visitor at the Emancipation exercises in this city New Year. A pleasant entertainment was given at the "hall" last Monday evening by a number of well-known ladies of the city. Mrs. N. J. Asberry, of Tacoma, who had been the guest of Mrs. W. G. Gayles during the Christmas holidays, returned to her home last Sunday. Mr. W. H. Smith, who is an employee in the government emigration service, stationed at Pt. Townsend, was a visitor in the city last Sunday. Prof. Reed's orchestra will entertain the Sunday Forum next Sunday with an exclusive musical concert. Exercises begin at 4 o'clock p. m. Presented with a cast of brilliant excellence, enhanced by beautiful scenery and stage settings, an entertainingment of rare good fun and surprises is "The Belle of Japan," which is now being played at the Seattle Theatre. This novelty has captured the effete East and is stirring the West with enthusiasm never before known in the history of comedy drama. It is without doubt one of the most talked about and popular as well as the greatest laughing, singing and dancing shows in the world, and will doubtless duplicate the success it has had elsewhere when it is seen here. Quite a number of theatre parties are being gotten up for this attraction. "THE OLD CLOTHES MAN." Too little is known nowadays of the noble work that the Salvation Army is doing daily and nightly in the slums of great cities like New York and London. James Kyle MacCurdy in "The Old Clothes Man," which appears at the Seattle Theatre next week, shows the self-sacrificing work done by the Army of God, performing their noble duties in a manner at once interesting and fascinating. The great scene in "The Old Clothes Man" is night life in the slums of New York, in which is graphically unveiled the Army's workers rescuing the fallen and helping the helpless. It is artistically depicted in a manner to wring the heart and open the eyes of that half of the world that never knows how the other half lives, and has thoroughly aroused the press and public to announce in unison that the stage, when used for such carefully enacted scenes as described above, is one of the most powerful mediums for the elevation of good.

Eddie—Paper, what is a rare war? Papa—A race war is where a lot of men arm themselves and go around among a lot of unarmed people and shoot them to death and burn their homes and drive their women and children out in the cold without homes. Eddie—Why do they call murder and outrage like that a race war? Papa—Well, you see, my son, it's like this: Two races of people are concerned. One white man and one colored man meet and have a dispute; the white man gets scared and runs away and tells other white men that the colored man "sassed" and insulted him. Then these white men get up a big crowd of white men and each one is well armed. They all go together and find the "sassy" colored man and THES MAN PROGRAM.

Eddie—Why, pap, that ain't no war, is it? Papa—Yes, it turns out to be one in this way. Some of these colored men try to protect their lives and their homes by meeting fire with fire and sometimes they kill some of the men who are killing the colored people GUSTAV ALDRICH Who Led the Celebration Exercises At Tacoma. GUSTAV ALDRICH Who Led the Celebration Exercises At Tacoma. Then the governor of the state calls out a band of white soldiers called militia and he sends these soldiers among the colored people and tells them to shoot the "niggers," and they do it. That makes a complete race war. Eddie—Papa, what goes with the colored people what the race war does not kill? Papa—After the race war is over the governor has them all arrested and sent to the penitentiary for a term of years. Eddie—Well, if that isn't a funny race war. Papa—Yes, they are funny, but the South is full of them. FLORA BATSON BERGEN; STORY OF HER CAREER And a Tribute to James G. Bergen, Woh Was a Man Every Inch of Him. (Pencil Pusher in Philadelphia Tribune.) The sudden death of Flora Batson-Bergen recalls with vividness the concert furore of 20 years ago. She came to Philadelphia widely heralded, and the amusement and music loving among us were all agog to hear her. Her first essay was at Musical Fund Hall, and by reason of the advertising methods employed the interest was sustained to the extent of having the Academy of Music. Floa Batson had a peculiar voice, both as to range and quality, and, although untutored, she possessed a manner which lent value to her work as a singer. Bergen, a New England manager, saw a gold mine in Flora Batson and started a concert scene, covering many cities, built on unique lines of management. He offered premiums in money, and ticket selling became a fad, mostly by church members, who worked zealously to add to the coffers of their respective churches. Bergen lived up to his pledges and never once defaulted, either in a promise after that fashion or in his amusements. Later on he married his protege, who became stepmother to a white son by a prior marriage. Flora Batson's style seemed to meet the desires of the average public, who put her on a pedestal, where she held sway for many years. Bergen's plan was to encourage home talent, at whatever place his star was billed to sing, and, not only that, but whenever he heard of skilled talent, gave the chance for its exploitation. In this, Philadelphia worth got recognition. Among his presentations were Louis L. Brown, Richard Strange and the Amphion Singing Society, Emory Jones and his wife, Madame Saville-Jones were put on for hearings. Madame Virginia Montgomery of New York was usually the accompanist for Flora Batson. It is within the memory of scores the advent of a Baltimore male chorus. After a while new fields were explored. Then Bergen died, and his wife was left without inheritance and had to depend upon her own resources. Flora Batson was a profitable drawing card, and it is sad to think how little of the financial success she made was diverted out of her hands. In many aspects her career was greater than that of any other singer since the days of the Black Swan, whose real career, like that of Flora Batson's, began in this city. FRYE-BRUHN CO.
