Gen. MacArthur of our own army and Gen. Baron Kuroki of the Japanese army. These friendly visits and exchanges of courtesy materially aid the effort now being made toward universal peace. A better understanding of each other by the different nations is all that is necessary to consummate this most laudable undertaking. * * * Why should there be such a difference in the treatment of law breakers in the two countries? Is one country endeavoring to uphold the law and protect its citizens while the other is lax in its prosecution and quietly winking at crime? What will be the outcome of this laxness? Where will it end? Is it not easier to stop crime now than to check anarchy when it shall become rampant? Isn't it time the good citizens demand that all laws be enforced or repealed? Our actions are breeding anarchists faster than we think. In Seattle Wednesday a woman was found not guilty of murder where the death actually occurred and evidence pointed very strongly to the woman as the perpetrator. To the majority of those who followed the case she was guilty. But the jury said no, and went a step further—a collection was raised for the woman. In Butte Wednesday a boy was found guilty of murder and sentenced to fifteen years in the penitentiary. At Nelson, B. C., the same day, a man pleaded guilty to attempted murder and was given a life sentence in the penitentiary. * * * As the bright sun and warm rains infuse new life in the grass and trees and imparts life to the newly planted seed, let the sight of these new growths stimulate us to action. Let each individual clear away the debris and allow nature to do its Creator's bidding unobstructed. Drop a few seed—Nature will do the rest. All will be benefited. *** With Georgetown and Youngstown both closed next Sunday, and the sprinkling of lawns allowed, the capacity of the Seattle water system will be severely taxed. SEATTLE. WASHINGTON MAY 3, 1907 It is a very noticeable fact that all the powers are sending army officers, naval and military experts to the peace conference at The Hague. * * * The price of potatoes just now should be an incentive to the farmers to get busy and plant "taters." Georgetown should have "Moore" mayors if she would have less drunkenness. DISCRIMINATION Another suit for discrimination in a restaurant has been started in this city, and we are informed the prosecuting attorney intends to push the prosecution. That such suits are necessary is a burning shame in a city like Seattle. That there shall be no discrimination is as much a law as that which says saloons shall close on Sunday. If violation of one law is punishable, then a violation of the other is also punishable. Every honorable, lawabiding citizen demands that all violations of the statutes of the state be dealt with according to law. The majority of the citizens of our city are giving their moral support to the officers in their effort to uphold the laws that regulate and govern the sale of intoxicating liquors. It is equally as incumbent upon each of you as citizens to give your moral support in this effort to stop the violation of another statute of the state law. As citizens and taxpayers, we only ask that the law be supported. We ask no favors, but demand justice. POLITICAL. POLITICAL Did not A. F. Statter, former private secretary of Senator Ankeny, betray the confidence of Senator Ankeny and wilfully deceive Gen. Humphrey in the Tacoma dock embroglio, is now being asked by those who have learned the circumstances about it. Evidently the President believed that Statter had not acted on the square and that is why Statter so suddenly decided to leave the post to which he had so recently been appointed. Ten days after the incident became public Statter was no longer assistant secretary of the treasury, he (Statter) giving as his excuse for tendering his resignation that he had been offered a better place in a Nevada bank. There may be a better place in Nevada, but that position has not as yet, so says the wise ones, shown up. "Just say for me that Statter is a smooth boy," came from a man who had dealings with the man, "and I predicted just some such thing would befall him when Ankeny decided to appoint him his private secretary." *** Sheriff Lou Smith has decided to close the county saloons on Sunday, which means that, PRICE TEN CENTS. though he is serving his second term and proposes to retire from politics at the expiration of his present term, he is ready and willing to bow to the will of the people. A great majority of the voters of this community seem to favor the Sunday closing of saloons and the majority should rule. Sheriff Smith may at some future time decide to re-enter politics, and if he had not taken the steps that he has the voters would have remembered his actions at this time when he reentered politics and would have said no. *** The name of Clark M. Nettleton is being frequently mentioned in connection with the next Republican nomination for mayor, and it is meeting with much favor. Clark Nettleton is one of the best known men in Seattle, and if nominated and elected he would make an ideal official. CONGRESS APPROPRIATES WASHINGTON, April 30.—According to the volume of appropriations made, new offices created, etc., during the last session of congress, just completed by Thomas P. Cleaves, clerk of the senate committee on appropriations, and James C. Courts, clerk of the house committee on appropriations, the total appropriations for the session were $920,798,143. In additions, appropriations were authorized for public works requiring future appropriations aggregating $67,977,714, of which over $49,000,000 is for river and harbor improvements and almost $16,000,000 for battleships, torpedo boats, etc. The largest appropriation carried by any one measure was $212,091,193 for the postoffice bill.

Of these, 4,770 were for the postal service, including 3,385 clerks in postoffices and 1,239 railway postal clerks. The net number of salaries increased is 16,434, at an annual cost of $2,949,353.

Tomatoes are good for a torpid liver, but should be avoided by gouty people. Lettuce has a soothing effect on the nerves, and is excellent for sufferers from insomnia. It also acts as a sedative upon the human frame owing to the opium it contains. Celery is a nerve tonic; so are onions. Spinach has great aperient qualities and is far better than medicine for sufferers from constipation. Beets are fattening, and good for people who want to put on flesh; so are potatoes. Asparagus stimulates the kidneys. 215 Marion St. Bananas are good for sufferers from chest complaints. Cranberries are astringent, and correct the liver when it is suffering from inaction caused by overeating. Cabbage is good for pulmonary complaints. Dates are exceedingly nourishing, and also prevent constipation. PIONEER DEAD One of the oldest women of Lewis County died Saturday of heart failure. Mrs. Jane Bryan, aged 86 years, who had never been sick a day in her life, died suddenly of heart failure at Centralia, Wash. Mrs. Bryan was the widow of the late Mr. William Bryan, whose body was interred and will be buried at the same time and in the same grave with that of his wife. She was the oldest and wealthiest colored resident in this state. The Bryans are a pioneer family of Lewis County. Both were born in Virginia of freed parents. They came to the Coast in 1864, sailing from New York around Cape Horn and landing at Olympia. In 1865 Bryan took a home-stead within the present townsite of Centralia. For years he transported his provisions in a wheelbarrow from Olympia to that city. He developed a fine farm, estimated to be worth $60,000, nine acres of which was recently sold for $9,000. Mrs. Bryan, since her husband's death, made her home with a nephew, Allen Miller, now one of the wealthiest residents of Centralia. Miller has lived there since 1887. He worked here in the early days for 50 cents a day, and walked two and one-half miles to and from work daily. He is a member of Puget Sound Lodge No. 109, I. B. P. O. E., of Seattle.

Complaint filed March 25, 1907. SAFE DEPOSIT AULT THE NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE PERSONAL AND LOCAL. Mrs. Gordon Carter of Franklin was in the city this week inspecting the new dwelling that they are having built near Lake Washington. \*\*\* Mr. J. R. Smithea of Denver, Col., is visiting in the city. He is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Frazier. Mr. Smithea is a coal, wood and grain dealer of Denver and has been in California for his health. He is looking over our city with a business eye and will remain about two weeks. * * * The Williams Dixie Jubilee Singers were entertained at luncheon Monday by Mr. C. C. Hancock, proprietor of the Waldorf Grill. The luncheon was said to be a most elaborate affair, such as the Waldorf Grill is always prepared to give. * * * The young people of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church were entertained at a moonlight social by Mrs. Joseph Horton at her residence at Green Lake. A special car carried the guests to and from the party. \*\*\* Mrs. William Taylor, who has been visiting in California for two months, returned to the city Friday night. Mrs. Taylor and Little Gloria are much improved by their stay in the south. * * * The performance given by the Williams Original Dixie Jubilee Singers at 14th Street Methodist Church on Friday evening was a decided success. Mrs. Clara Williams, the contralto, was in excellent form and the large audience was carried away by her songs, and especially "Feather Your Nest" and "So Long, Mary." The bass solos by Mr. Crabb were well rendered, as was proven by the applause of the audience. The quartet work was excellent. So well pleased were those who attended that repetition of the concert would have drawn the same size house. *** Mrs. J. H. Mann, one of the well known church workers of the Baptist Church of this city, left Tuesday for her ranch in the Horse Heaven country. Mrs. Mann was accompanied by Mrs. Henry Gregg, who goes for an outing while her friend is on business. They will return in about three weeks. \* \* \* Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Ryan of Tacoma were in the city Tuesday on a pleasure trip. * * * The Forum at its meeting Sunday discussed the advisability of continuing its meeting in a slightly changed form during the summer. The decision will be given next Sunday, so it is hoped that all those who have an interest in the welfare and advancement of the race will come out Sunday and assist in determining this question. There will be an interesting program besides the general discussion. SEATTLE THEATRE. At the Seattle Theatre this week, they have a farce comedy, "Hello Bill." From the title you would not be very much impressed with its poeticalness, in fact it would be judged rather THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN slangy. Perhaps it is. But like a great many attributes appertaining to slang, it is piquant, and so funny that the proverbial wooden Siwash, or relict of some other ancient tribe of red men, would fall from his pedestal and spill his cigars should he see the play from shere laughter. It tells the story of a gigantic American prevaricater, who is found in a gambling house on the eve of his wedding day; is arrested, makes his escape, gets married, announces his military character, leaves for the war in Cuba, but in reality goes to jail to serve out a sixty days' sentence; returns from jail posing as a hero, Gen. Fuller, to eventually become confronted with the real general. Talk about hilarity, the second and third acts of the play "Hello Bill" is the funniest, ever seen anywhere on the stage in the way of a farce comedy, and the company at the Seattle Theatre does it full justice. Next week, at the Seattle Theatre, a play up-to-date, or perhaps a little ahead of the times, will be seen there starting Sunday matinee. The title is "The Roof Garden Tragedy." It is based on the Thaw case, or as the Butte papers say—the Thaw-Nesbitt-White case. It is a melodrama, of course, and deals with incidents and events leading up to the roof garden tragedy. The Butte, Montana, papers speak of the attraction as a commendable one, and distinctly states that there is nothing objectionable in the play from a moral standpoint.
