Idaho's Ku-Klux-Klan under a different name seems to have been just as damnable as the original order of midnight marauders. Senator Smoot defended himself one day this week in the senate, but in doing so he did no more than any other criminal would do if given an opportunity. If Harry Thaw paid $7,000 for a surgical operation on Evelyn Thaw as she testified to it would appear that the New York doctors can do a little grafting themselves. That Lake Washington Canal, which we thought was so near, after all seems so far that our children will have to settle the question when they are grown up men. If Seattle expends $11,000,000 on improvements this year it occurs to us that an importation of a few hundred working men, real working men, would be a step in the right direction. It is rather remarkable that the birth days of three of America's greatest men fall in February; Lincoln's the 12th, Douglas' the 17th and Washington's the 22nd Faith, Hope and Charity. If Joe Lyons can only get his matters shaped up so as to be able to take a seat in the Twelfth senate of the state he will have accomplished all, either he or his friends desire him to do. Dr. Washington Gladden does not seem pleased at Rockfeller thirty-two million dollar gift. Perhaps his displeasure arises from the fact that it was not $132,000,000 instead of the measly sum it was. If the statement of those of the discharged companies that have testified before the senate investigating committee be corroborated by others and by persons not members of the companies as it has claimed they can be, it occurs to us that Senator Foraker has President Roosevelt in a bad hole. ```markdown ``` SEATTLLE. WASHINGTON FEBRUARY 22, 1907. It may be Jimtown in Dakota, but it is Georgetown in Seattle especially on Sunday. If a majority of the voters of Chehalis county desire to divide the county they may, the division act having run the gauntlet of both houses of the legislature. With the state dispensary put out of business it begins to look as if Ben Tillman's power in South Carolina is slowly but surely waining. When it is the state will be well rid of bad rubbish. If the statement in the P. I. to the effect that Jesse Hall would return and prosecute Constantine for handing him a bunch be authentic then it would appear that Jess has in a polite way handed the lie to Blethonius. Not satisfied with proving Christ was a black man the ethnologists are now declaring Isiah of biblical fame was likewise a black man. Unless this thing stops some where the whole biblical retinue will be placed on the black list. Yellow journal editors have now featured every thing in connection with the Thaw trial save an interview with Stanford White through a spiritualistic medium. This story should be attended to immediately.—North Yakima Herald. Lost Strayed or Stolen, Druggist Leary of Sunset Telephone removal fame. Any information of him will be rewarded by the installation of a Sunset phone in his place with the view of putting him in touch with the people once more. With St. Patrick's day coming on Sunday and the saloons closed from Saturday midnight to Monday five o'clock the Seattle wearers of the green will be more out of luck than they have been before in the history of Seattle. Will Saint Patrick turn over in his grave ? Mrs. Caroline-Kline-Galland had a streak of charity in her that one would have to travel a long time to find a woman possessing a similar streak. "Without regard to race or color" a clause in her will was no less to be admired than the sum she actually gave for charity, which amounted to $1,500,000. January 1st 1907 the population of Greater New York was 4,152,860, showing a most wonderful growth in the past twelve months. The population of Greater Seattle is just four million less and yet Seattleites are pleased to pronounce Seattle the New York of the Pacific Coast. What prompts the rather disparaging comparison is what puzzles any one that has given the matter a sober thought. The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a blank or heavily blurred screen with no discernible content. APR 29 1952 PRICE TEN CENTS. When the directory scales of Spokane point to a population of 96,000 then Miss Spokane need not "wonder if these scales are correct." for she knows they are not. When the Pope of Rome publicly declares that he is proud of America then Americans should begin to cast about to see what America has done to merit such treatment. Out of the hundred cases of grip reported in the city, but two deaths have been recorded. Only two may have died, but every mother son of them felt like dying while they were in its grip. Despite the protest of the white citizens the Japanese children are to attend the public schools of San Francisco, which is a victory for President Roosevelt. Teddy seldom ever loses a battle. Laboring men may not give more toward the support of saloons than the wealthy idle, but a majority of the laboring men give the saloons their all and what greater generosity could even the saloon man expect. Will ex-Rev. Councilman T. P. Revelle rise and explain what in the holy duce he is doing in a whisky ring? "My brother" it occurs to us that you are venturing on dangerous footing from at least a political view point. Under the caption of The Traitor, Thomas Dixon, Jr. will soon issue a new novel. Few subjects are more familiar to Tom, his family and his boon companions than the above and the novel should prove his best effort. Sending woman suffragist to jail may for the time being appease man's god of wrath and vengeance, but it is no argument against the justness of the cause the women are advocating and truth crushed to the ground will rise again. "Congressman now earn $7,500 a year" says an exchange. They may get that much, but that is no proof that they earn that much and we suspect that there are grave doubts in the minds of their constituents as to whether they deserve that much. If a few broken doses of diplomacy seasoned with a bit of strategy be administered to the members of the house of representatives of Congress, the A-Y-P. Exposition may get a liberal appropriation from Congress, thinks the Hon. John H. McGraw. No one can administer such a concoction more successfully than the governor and why not have him do it. ```markdown ``` That California toper, who was despondent over not being able to quit the liquor habit and who poured morphine in his soup and after eating died soon thereafter, despite of past futile efforts finally succeed in quitting the drink habit. It took twenty-five years prayerful consideration as to whether the Sunday Closing Law should be enforced in Seattle, but the law finally won out and we suspect it will be twenty-five years more before another change will be made. Purify our English by eliminating slang and profanity is the watchword in Seattle just now and it is a good thing. The man who stands round talking to others always smeting one vile oath after another is in our opinion a bit weak under the hat. John Sharp Williams, the Mississippi misrepresentative in Congress is still howling about this being a "a white man's country." If the men who own the country come no nearer being "white" men on general principles than Williams then we pity the country and its future. With the hope of getting something for nothing, only that and nothing more, was responsible for hundreds of Seattle women jaming a dry goods store last Monday. many of them even risking their lives. Better not get the thing cheap than to have have to take a chance like that to get it. He or she who is able to say of his fellow men, "I have their confidence and this I want to retain, for any amount of money is a small thing when compared with a man's honor and good name," has found the key to the closed sesame of public confidence and such a person is one of God's chosen ones. The rejectad suitor, who shot himself dead on one of the streets of Seattle in the presence of the girl whom he wanted to marry, but who did not want to marry him, probaly has saved the state the expense of maintaining him for years at one of the insane asylums, which was something of a consideration on the part of the young love-sick swain. AFRO-AMERICAN. Mrs. Maggie Walker, of Richmond, Virginia, president of one of the colored banks, is one of the two women presidents of banks in the United States. It is our daily prayer that the bill to prevent Negroes from enlisting in the army and navy will become a law. Let the Negro take some other road to heaven.—St. Luke's Herald. Chief Yeoman A. B. Conquest is in Seattle trying to recruit colored men in the navy. The men are wanted as stewards and mess attendants. Every man has two educations—that which is given to him, and that which he THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN gives to himself. Of the two kinds the latter is by far the most valuable. Indeed, all that is most worthy in a man he must work out and conquer for himself.—Lynman. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of Chicago have incorporated a company to build a hall in that city. The capital stock is $50,000 and is more than half subscribed and paid up. Mrs A. P. Boyer who for years has been the only woman undertaker in Chicago died last week. Mrs. Boyer was the only woman of our race in the undertaking business. Dr. Daniel H. Williams, our eminent skilful surgeon, was hurriedly called to Tuskegee, Ala., last Tuesday to perform a surgical operation on the wife of one of the professors of Booker T. Washington's great school. Word reaches Chicago that the doctor has successfully performed the operation and that the lady is doing well. It is greatly to the Negroes' credit and one of the best signs of race advancement and self reliance to note how the Negroes in all intelligent centers are calling on well fitted men of their own race to perform those difficult and dangerous operations which but a short time ago it was generally thought none but the most skilful white men could perform, and it is a pleasure to know that these professional Negroes are not disappointing those who depend upon them.—Conservator. Dr. Booker T. Washington in a recent conversation with an ambitious young Negro of New York, made this observation: "My boy, if you would think less and say less about your color, perhaps other people might say less and think less about it. Ask for success and advancement because you are a deserving man instead of a desiring black man. Think it over." SUCCESS IN THE FACE OF HILLS A man never knows what he can do until he is put to the test, the same of a race. Hills of difficulty have stood out one after another before our race ever since emancipation (a thing some speak of softly), but despite all obstacles we have succeeded, and will continue to succeed. There are noble men and women of the Afro-American people whose success stands ont in bold relief, as an inspiration and example for all those who would learn the ways of life. Success, what is success? Success is a well rounded life. It may be found in the millionaires' avenue or in the laborers' street. Every man is a successful man who lives for the best interest of his fellow men. The world may not call this success, but it is the noblest kind. In our race we can count such men by the thousands. They are the bone and sinew of the race. They have comfortable homes, happy families and make money enough to meet their obligations. The home is managed by a house-wife who systematizes all her work. From these homes come the boys and girls who are filling trades, professions and business houses throughout the land. Their number is increasing. A wonderful race have we to climb over the hills with such fortitude and pleasure. Cleveland Journal. Dr. H. C. Faulkner, the missionary and medical doctor of Monrovia, Liberia, Africa, died on Dec. 11 of pneumonia. He was city physician, coroner, college physician, health officer and a few other things for the city of Monrovia. The report is reiterated and given out as positive that Dr. E. H. Robinson has won his damage suit against the American Car & Foundry Co. The suit was $10,000,-000 for the enfringment on patent rights on car wheels. The Negro Conference held at Columbia, S. C., last week was a decided success. There were 200 delegates and visitors present. The plans put in operation for the betterment of the race are sure to help. The speech by Booker T. Washington, was listened to by Gov. M. T. Ansel, Judge Bennet, ex-Gov. D. C. Hayward and other prominent whites, besides thousands of his own race. Misdirected Letters. More than 11,000,000 pieces of mail went astray in the United States last year because they were not directed even well enough for the experts to decipher the names and addresses. Millions of this immense total went to the dead letter office where a lot of it was opened, the addresses of the writers ascertained and the letters or packages returned. But in good many cases the writer's address is never found and the letter is really "dead" when neither the sender nor the prospective receiver can be discovered. Assist. Postmaster General DeGraw wants to get people into the habit of writing their own address on the outside of envelopes. This, he says, would save trouble for all hands, as the letter, if defective in address, could be returned at once to the writer. This simple precaution would save a piece of mail from an early death and burial in the dead letter office. Kansas City Star. LIGHTS AND SIDELIGHTS.

There is a famine in household help in most of the cities and towns of the state of Washington, and especially in the city of Seattle, the largest town in the state. The crying demand for good household help is so general in Seattle that at least 1,000 girls in excess of what are already employed in the city could be placed in good positions at wages ranging from $25 to $30 per month, and in some instances even higher than that, the next day after they reached the city. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is preparing to issue a special edition under the caption of which will be sent in large numbers to the Jamestown Exposition for free distribution in the Negro building, and the help situation might be greatly relieved in this section by a great number of families wanting help placing "want advertisements" in this special edition. will contain pictures of a hundred or more homes of Negroes in this state. It will likewise contain the pictures of a hundred or more Negro men and women more or less prominent in the various localities of the state in which they reside, and through those channels many copies of the special will find their way back East, where they will be eagerly read by friends and relatives. With such opportunities staring them in the face, they may make up their minds to come West at once and seek such employment as they find advertised. The proposition is worthy of your most earnest consideration, and the investment might mean a lasting benefit to the entire community.

Remarkable as it may seem every Republican voted for Smoot and practically all the Democrats voted against him. When the territory of Utah was admitted into the union of states it was overwhelmingly Democratic and remained in that column a number of years thereafter, but when McKinley was a candidate for the presidency the Republicans through Mark Hanna made a deal with the Mormons to the effect that if they would swing Utah into the Republican column, if a Mormon was elected to the United States senate the Republicans would not see him unseated as was Brigham H. Roberts the Demoeratic Mormon elected to the house of representatives a few years prior. The Mormons delivered the goods, Smoot, a Mormon apostle and a polygamist, was elected to the senate. That means for a number of years yet to come Utah, Idaho and Wyoming, where large number of Mormons reside, will continue in the Republican column on all national elections, and the evil of Mormonism will continue to flourish and disgrace the land just as it has for the past fifty years or more.

He retires because of ill health. Emperor William, among other Christmas tokens he gave to Ambassador Tower, presented him with a large portfolio of drawings by the famous artist Menzel, dealing with military subjects of the time of Frederick the Great. One of the most popular of the royal duchesses in Germany is the Duchess of Sachsen Coburg-Gotha. The story is now told that in company with one of her ladies in waiting she recently shopped at a public market and made purchases for the royal kitchen. At a meat market, when she was told of the present high price of meat, she declared: "This is inconceivable. How can the wife of a workman make ends meet? I must tell my husband about it." The duchess every day is in the royal kitchen and even peels potatoes. ```markdown ``` E SEATTLE REPUBLICAN FEBRUARY 22, 1907 Cf oe a. oo Ss Ao Ti a es fe Ne TOA ae gh ok aie ay ecu oe ion ee > JW se oo — ee ee ee Sp fe "4 - “ be oe. ke aoe. ot ae 3 USE Oe fo ee ce oe ee Bee ea 2s ae ee eae - i a Ls Pa ee ee ee CG ll . i i. ee a. ———_—_—— kc ltts”t~—‘iQN ee er . 8 Roe \ ee ll ee ee oad ee Po rrr ee as Ls } ed ore ee a eT Be a Oe oe eG Be ee os fee Be oe Oe | ge ei a ” ae os ee ee he — .

It seems almost preposterous that Repub- lieans would take up the mouthings of the Seattle Times and try to make political cap- ital out of it, and yet that is just what those Republicans in the senate did when they voted to investigate Land Commissioner Ross for alleged malfeasance in office, which has from time to time been advocated by the Evening Swillbarrel. This paper is no devotee of Mr. Ross, as it in the past has never supported his political ambitions prior to conventions, and but gave him the same support in the general election when he was nominated that the other nominees on the ticket received. He has in no wise showed this paper any special favors since he has been in office, and therefore it can not be said that The Seattle Republican is sup- porting Mr. Ross because it had been the recipient of innumerable favors at his hands since he has been in office. The Times has from time to time published the same kind of falsehood rot about Ross that it has about Judge Frater, City Engineer Thomson ani other persons whom it had proscribed for editorial vengeance. The paper is now floun- dering about in the political sea like a ship without sail of rudder in mid-ocean, having been defeated in everything which it has advoeated. It held Senator Piles between itself and the fire until it has about succeed- ed ‘in burning up all the influence Senator Piles had in the state, and seeing itself de- feated at every point, it has assumed the at- titude of an old sore-head bear that has lost all of its teeth and gums at everything that comes its way. It is therefore repeated that those Republicans who have followed in the wake of the Times hoping to put some other Republican in an unfavorable light before the general public had devilish little to do, and unless they are very careful they will find that they have sown to the wind and will reap a whirlwind. The Ross investigation has proven a boom- erang of the worst type, and the Pie-maker is inclined to believe that Senator Knicker- bocker himself is thoroughly ashamed of having fathered the matter. If the investi- gation has brought out anything at all it is that the land commissioners who preceeded Mr. Ross, and not Ross, should be inves- tigated, but so far as the members of the legislature are concerned they might investi- gate for the next twelve months and would know no more at the end of the investiga- tion than they now know. To investigate the land commissioner’s office or any other office it requires the work of experts. Seattle’s Sunday Closing. Sunday closing has finally reached Seattle and last Sunday the saloons of the city were closed tight all day, and it is said many a poor fellow was so thirsty Monday morning that his thirst was almost unquenchable. The usual howl on the part of the whiskey men went up when the order was issued to put the lid on, on the grounds that their rights were being trampled upon, and that they were not getting a square deal. Whether such a closing edict comes from Mayor Moore or mayor any one else it’s no more an im- position on the saloon keepers to close their places of iniquity on Sunday than for the grocery man, the coal or wood man, or other places that furnish the general public with necessities of life to close their doors on Sunday. Seventy-five per cent of the saloons of the city are nothing more or less than brothels and resorts of vice and iniquity, and the other twenty-five per cent have nothing to offer to the general public that’s elevating to either the body or the soul. This is neither an arraignment of the saloon business nor a boost for either temperance or local option, but it is a stand that saloon men should have no more rights in the community than any other elass of business men. That men and women congregate in saloons, where they revel to a greater degree on Sundays than any other day, the saloon men themselves cannot deny, and that being a fact, the saloon in the community is always the evil, and permitted to run by suffrance only. If per- mitted to run by suffrance, then the com- E. W ROSS. munity should have the say as to its run- ning regulation. Mayor Moore is simply en- forcing the laws of this state in having the saloons closed on Sunday, and if more may- ors would live up to the letter of the law, whether it met their approbation or not, there would be less law breaking all over the land of the drunkard and home of the boozer. Congress Should Act. Yellow journalism has become so brazen that Congress would not act amiss if it passed a law giving the president of the United States the power to regulate such newspapers as are sent through the mails. When the slush pregnant with crime and re- volting vices of a Thaw trial is being sent out to the reading world by a Mollineux who him- self is able to write sensational and blood curdling stories at this time, owing to a flagrant miscarriage of justice, or that is the prevailing opinion, then it is high time for your Uncie Sam to place a censorship over the vellow journalist. ‘To prevent the spread FEpuuary 22, 1907 of such literature is not necessarily a muz- zling of the press, for no man that. has any interest in his fellow man would publish such degenerating matter, knowing as he would the demoralizing effect it would have on the general public. When men publish such pa- pers as the Hearst and the Blethen sheets, they do so forthe money that’s in it, regard- less of the evil effects they may have on the public. The man who sells and dispenses in- toxicating drinks has no eare for the crimes that may be traced directly to those drinks, but he does so because it is money in his pocket, and the elevation of the human fam- ily higher than some saloon bar and wine room is of no interest to him. foite haliroad SMpioyes. Jim Hill should send a secret agent to his Union Depot in Seattle, and have him make inquiries as to when his train would leave, the price of tickets and other such informa- tion as the traveling publie generally seek, listen to the snappish, uncourteous, uncivil and haughty answers returned by the young snipes in charge of the ticket window, then discharge them and fill their position with at least—gentlemen.—Tacoma New Herald. Whether or not there is excuse for the above the writer verily does not know, but he does know the average young man at a railroad station is the most self-important being on the face of God’s green earth. He is without manners or civility, and the man or woman traveling would as soon face a fierce lion for information as one of those young railroad officials, and this is not any more so in Seattle than all over the country. So impolite are they that when one happens to run on to a man in the employ of a railroad company who speaks to the traveling public as though they were human beings, and that he, the railroad man, is just a plain human being like them, they feel like falling down at his feet with the exclamation, ‘‘there is at least one gentleman in the employ of a railroad. One of the troubles with those rail- road clerks is that they try to be laconie in their replies to the inquisitive public, and instead of being laconic they art pert. While they are asked a great many foolish questions by the traveling public, yet those clerks take their positions knowing or presuming to’ know all of those things. It is gratifying to the anxious traveling person to hear from one in authority whether the train is late, and if late, about how late. It’s a great relief to the minds of the passengers when tied up on the road for the trainmen to politely announce, ‘‘there is a wreck ahead and it is impossible to say when the train will move forward.’’ A hundred and one other little courtesies the men in authority on the various railroads might impart to the traveling publie without inconveniencing themselves and yet greatly relieving the minds of their passengers. There should be some consideration due the person in transit, since thousands of persons are annually killed through the criminal carelessness of railroad employes, *._* «& Hooliocans Hit Hard. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN responding to the leadership of intelligent and far-seeing men, and that because of such influence Negro-hating is not so popular as it once was, is presented by the case of the Atlanta News, which has just been forced to suspend publication. The News was founded five years ago. Its proprietors adopted the principle of ‘‘yel- Jow journalism,’’ which declares: ‘We will give the public what the public wants,”’ meaning thereby that they assumed a public demand for sensationalism of the worst sort. On this basis they did fairly well in building up cireulation, and the paper was prosperous until last September, when its conductors de- cided that the public wanted a crusade against the Negroes, with red-hot appeals to race prejudice. Its columns were therefore filled with exaggerated stories of alleged Negro outrages upon white women, and with calls for the revival of the Ku Klux Klan or- ganizations. This effort to incite violence was steadily persisted in until it had its natural effect. The ‘‘Hooligans’’ of Atlanta for whom the paper was published, began to apply its doctrine that ‘‘the only good nigger is the dead nigger.’’ The history of the race riot thus started is still fresh in our readers’ minds. Many innocent and industrious Negroes were killed, and the hos- pitals were filled with other victims of the mob before the state militia and the police had re-established order. Then the grand jury conducted the inqui- sition on the riot and its causes. It ‘‘pre- sented’’ the News as having directly contrib- uted to the outbreak by its ‘‘extras.’’ At once reputable subscribers dropped the paper and urged their acquaintances to do like- wise. The city’s pride, aroused by the in- jury to Atlanta’s good name, struck hard at the offending newspaper. Nearly every mer- chant withdrew his advertising. After try- ing to stem the tide for several months at great loss, the News has given up the fight— Tacoma Ledger. Recently Miss Frances Kellor, who de- voted her life to the study of criminalogy among the black folk of this country, deliv- ered a lecture in Chicago, and among other things she called particular attention to the number of colored young women who are coming every day into our large cities with no place to go and no knowledge of the perils of city life. She called attention to the fact that at every railway station in our large cities may be found the kindly face of some white women waiting to receive, and if necessary rescue the white young woman. The doors of Christian Associations are wide open for them, and other havens of welcome and peace offer them hospitality and refuge. For the colored girl there are no such agen- cies of kindness and welcome waiting to save and protect her. Hundreds of places freely offer hospitality, mental and moral stimulants, to every other class of young people except the colored American. Plain- ly we must do these things for ourselves. It is a singular fact that we are deficient in ways and means for protecting our giris and bringing them into wholesome environments and under friendly and uplifting influences. We seem to be doing things in the same old unprogressive ways as when society was less complex and temptations less subtle. The city girl becomes a woman all too soon. She loses the bloom of girlishness while still a girl in years. They early crave the sensa- tional and the unusual and lose all appetite for simple joys and wholesome amusements. Sunday school has become simply a rendez- yous for frivolous exchange of greetings be- tween the sexes, discussions of the latest dancing party or theatre, and an almost total ignorance of the Sunday lesson. It is no longer a question of locating the responsi- bility for this state of things, but how and where to apply the remedy. While these are grave thoughts for the consideration of the human family through- out the United States, yet they are serious thoughts for the mothers and fathers of Negro girls.

Zion Baptist Church on Monday evening was a most enjoyable affair. Among other numbers on the program were recitation by Miss Mertel Warmick; paper, Mr. H. Richardson; solo, Mr. C. C. Hancock; duet, the Misses Clark. The Nuggets were founded by Miss Clara Threat and Miss Lydia Clark. The church was beautifully decorated and the supper was excellent. Much credit is due Mrs. Mann for her effort in this matter. SUNDAY FORUM. Fred Douglass Day was fittingly observed by the Sunday Forum last Sunday. The hall was beautifully decorated with evergreens, bunting and the pictures of Douglass, Lincoln, Revels, Bruce and Washington. The program was interesting and instructive. The paper by Mr. John C. Robinson was a masterpiece. It contained words of praise for the dead hero and logical advice to his hearers. Mr. James S. Murray read a most interesting paper on the reconstruction period. Rev. J. A. Edmonson gave a most interesting talk on our duty as citizens and the necessity of our demanding our civil rights at any and all times. The musical part of the program was equally interesting, being a solo by Miss Katie Byrd, solo by Mr. J. B. Reed, and duet by Miss G. Harvey and Miss C. Threat. The collection for the benefit of the Fred Douglass Memorial and Historical Association amounted to $3.50, which amount was sent to Booker T. Washington. SEATTLE THEATER. Next week "My Wife's Family," a musical farce-comedy, a merry conglomeration of nonsensical fun, music and dances, is what the advance agent says about it. It was here before, appearing at the Third Avenue Theater last season, and it gave excellent satisfaction. It was under the same management, with practically the same company this season, and as it will have a better theater for a background it will probably make good again. People who go to the theater to laugh and see plenty of color, motion and music will enjoy "My Wife's Family," for it is funny, very funny! LYRIC THEATER.

The special edition of The Seattle Republican, which had been planned to be issued January 1st last, for reasons over which the management had no control, could not materialize at the appointed time, but will come out later in the shape of an anniversary number of the establishing of The Seattle Republican fourteen years ago. In the meantime the work is being vigorously prosecuted and when issued it will be a thing of beauty. Arrangements are being made to have a large number of copies distributed in the Negro building at the Jamestown exposition, which opens next June. The number will contain pictures of no less than 500 homes and persons in the Northwest, and also contain accurate facts and figures of the progress of the Negro in the Northwest. It means much to get these statistics, hence we had to make haste slowly in the publication of the Magazine. The Seattle Republican 215 Marion 'Phone Main 305 --- is, not those who stand in line all night when certain attractions come to town, but the class of people who go to a theater to enjoy the entertainment offered. "The Diamond King," the play this week at the Lyric, is the very best sensational melodrama seen here this season at any of the theaters, and its is played by the company in such an excellent manner that one would be led to believe that they had been appearing in it for years. The dramatic season at the Lyric Theater closes this Saturday night, but it is to be hoped that the same excellent company will return there after the musical comedy season, which opens at the Lyric Theater next Sunday night, when Zinn's Musical Comedy Company opens in "The Captain and the Maid." The company was here and appeared at the Seattle Theater a few weeks ago. It is composed of twenty-five singers, dancers and comedians, and the famous Zinn's dancing girls, sixteen in number. They are so clever that they would make some of the New York choruses that obtain $1.50 prices take to the tall timber or jump into the Sound. The same excellent comedians, Mortimer and Clifford, Mann and Franks, are with the company, and there will be no advance in prices at the Lyric, although the engagement of this attraction would easily justify it.

Mrs. Authur Wright, of Tacoma, has been in the city this week, visiting her friend, Mrs. B. Bennett. From the way that Mr. Strauthers is seen carrying suits and coats up and down the street the White Star Tailoring Co. is doing a rushing business.

The dancing public will greatly miss his trombone when they are out for pleasure. The Dunbar Musical and Dramatic club held a very interesting and important meeting last Tuesday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Gayton. The club is preparing to give a "Dunbar Evening" in the near future. Among the new enterprises by members of our race we are pleased to mention the establishment by Mr. J. I.
