What a world of trouble this place has given the present national administration and how wholly unexpected did it all come about. The committee that has spent a season investigating the Brownsville affair is about ready to report and it is hinted that it will report adversely to the president, which, from an administration standpoint, will be little short of a calamity. At the time the president took the drastic steps against the colored soldiers, which resulted in the entire batallion being mustered out of service without honor, the country by and large, especially among the whites, felt that the president had acted justly, but subsequent reports have convinced the most of them that the president was mistaken and the president himself being a man of almost superhuman foresight, must realize that he made a mistake, but being a man of the not-willing-to-give-in type, he refuses to right even a wrong. As to the average citizen among the whites he refuses to right a wrong in this case, not that he desires to do the black man an injustice, but that he does not want to see the president placed in a compromising position. If the country at large and the United States Senate should take the facts and decide the case from the facts regardless of who suffered thereby the president and not the colored soldiers would be down and out, but that it would have a bad effect on the country for the president of the United States to be placed in an awkward public light in the interest of a lot of Negroes and the Negro being of little if any public significance he is being sacrificed. It is to be regretted that the men of our boasted civilization are such moral cowards, but they are so and we guess the least that is said about it the best for all concerned. Speaking about these discharged soldiers, an exchange says: "We have watched carefully the conduct of the Afro-American soldiers who were dismissed from the 25th Infantry by President Roosevelt seevral months ago, and we are putting in print that which we have heard many express in words, and that is, during all this trying period no one has heard a single utterance from these soldiers that was unbecoming or unmanly. They have conducted themselves during all this trying period in a spirit of modesty and at the same time with frankness and courage. They have not been noisy; they have not disgraced M. GEORGE RUSSELL, City Treasurer Who May Be Put in the Mayoralty Contest for Republican Nomination. the race by loudness or intoxication; they have gone on quietly and found other work and are pursuing it." Merry Christmas to you. Another Christmas holiday is about upon us and gose grease is our only reward for the year's work. Notwithstanding Oklahoma's youthfulness she goes into the United States Senate as blind as a bat. From the rumblings at a distance it occurs to us that, the Seattle mayoralty situation will soon Trimble like an aspen leaf. If Caleb Powers is acquitted of the killing of Gov. Goebel, either the stage or the dime museum business is just spiling for him. If Hughes and Cortelyou are not presidential aspirants in the way of active candidates it looks like Taft is the "real thing." Is there a God? asks an editor. That need not worry you for if there is you will hardly get an opportunity to form a speaking acquaintance. War with Japan has not been actually declared by the United States, but Uncle Sam has a chip on his shoulder and dares the Mikado to knock it off. Who's afraid? Everybody and his brother that has held office in Alaska have been accused at some stage of the game of having practiced crooked dealings. The Alaska atmosphere must in- AN PUBLISHES LEGAL NOTICES AT REASON PRICE TEN CENTS spire the office holder with criminal intentions. Resuming specie payment on the part of the banks may be a long step in the right direction, but resuming "wringers" each week is the kind of resumption that both the laboring folk and the merchants are dead anxious to see return. Did the Barth-Virtue-Matthews Christian Endeavor combination get cold feet, which accounts for the National Republican Convention going to Chicago instead of coming to Seattle? It requires such a small amount of success to make some folks drunk beyond recognizing their own selves. Republicans of the state may be a bit tardy about recognizing Senator Ankeny's great worth as a statesman, but the Democrats are speaking right out in meeting in his behalf. There is an old addage however, that says, "fools rush in where angels dare not tread," and we guess this is a true case of it. Pettibone's trial is developing nothing different from Haywood's, who a few weeks ago was acquitted, and it occurs to us that, the state's prosecutor should himself be indicted for continuing to rob the treasury of the state to conduct these trials. What a dangerous thing is a bit of authority in some men's hands. Entombing large numbers of miners seems to be a fad in mining circles these days. The miners seem to stand it alright and we therefore suggest that, the next time a strike is threatened that the mining company get as many men as possible into the mines and then entomb them. Send their meals to them through an air shaft and then say work or starve. M. B. WILL H. PARRY Who in Giving Up Seattle Wants You to "Keep Your Eye on Pasco." FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1907. PERSONAL. Mr. C. C. Berry, who has been working at the Moran Brothers shipbuilding works for several months, left Monday for Hutchison, Ky., to visit his mother. Mr. Charles Scurry passed through the city Thursday en route from Dawson, Y. T., to Vancouver, B. C. Mr. Scurry says the trip out over the ice was very pleasant. Mr. Will Taylor has been very sick during the week with plurisy, but is not considered very dangerous. Mrs. B. F. Meadows of Everett spent two days in town this week, the guest of Mrs. J. C. Robinson. Mrs. Jane Rawel, wife of Mr. Geo. Rawel of Green Lake, died Sunday morning and was buried Tuesday. Mrs. Rawel was born in South Carolina 59 years ago, and has lived in this city for the past five years. She is survived by her husband, two daughters, Mrs. James Allen and Mrs. Mary Hall and several grand children, one of whom is Miss Eva Ford, the well known young vocalist of the city. PERSONAL AND SOCIAL. The Pioneer Social Club held its regular monthly meeting at the residence of Mrs. J. Edward Hawkins last Tuesday evening. The doll social at the Afro-American hall last week was a financial success beyond expectation. About $107 clear was realized. Miss Harvey, the younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Harvey, won the prize for having sold the largest amount of tickets. Each month adds to the bank account of the Dorcas Charity Club and the undertaking, which brought the organization, is already fully realized. Success is solely dependent on the will and energy you put forth. SEATTLE THEATRE. "Woodland" will be the attraction at the Seattle Theatre all next week, being the Holiday attraction.

One of the fundamental principles of the American system of government guarantees to every man the right to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience or to refrain altogether from such worship. whoever denies this right to anyone is deficient in a proper conception of the spirit of our institutions; nevertheless various state legislatures have enacted laws which are hostile to religious liberty, and the sectarians whose beliefs have been incorporated into such laws are asking that they be enforced. A certain proportion of the people of this country believe or profess to believe that a divine commandment was given to mankind several thousand years ago to observe the seventh day of the week and keep it holy. Laws have been passed by legislatures prohibiting on the first day of the week certain things which are perfectly legal on other days. It is now sought to have these laws enforced. As might be expected, the demand for the enforcement of these Sunday laws comes from the people who believe that the first day of the week is a day consecrated to religious worship. Besides violating the fundamental principle of religious liberty, these people who enacted such laws and now seek their enforcement, have evidently forgotten that the decrees of the Almighty do not need approval by the legislature nor enforcement by the court. The purpose of civil government is to regulate the conduct of the citizen toward his neighbor, not to interfere with his relation to a Supreme Being. It is immaterial whether the believers in the divine command to observe the seventh day and keep it holy are in a majority; it is immaterial whether their belief is warranted by arguments for or against the proposition. The fact is that the observance of Sabbath, either on the first or seventh day of the week, is a matter of religious belief and is a subject for sectarian controversy. The majority has no right to impose its religious belief upon the minority; the tyranny of a majority may be just as reprehensible as the tyranny of a minority. The most reprehensible form of tyrany is that which affects the religious belief of the citizen, and the obsrevance of a Sabbath is purely a matter of religious belief. The authorities were asked to enforce the Sunday laws because they have been permitted to remain upon the statute books. The ultimate result of the enforcement of such laws will be their repeal.—Centralia Chronicle. THE PREACHER PREACHES Was the law violated by the open shows on the Sabbath day in Seattle? A jury said No. But does that settle it? One of the jurors is reported to have said: "There was no testimony presented but by one policeman, and no one will believe him." So the shows were not open, and the county attorney puts up a feeble protest, and the showmen all go scot free. The theatres were open. Plays were presented to the public, and the owners of the play houses netted, no doubt, handsome profits. Let a man be caught by a policeman stealing a horse, and let him have a trial by THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN jury, what court or jury would find him innocent even though the policeman was the only witness against him? The attorney for the defense plead that the laws was made for Indians and hoodlums in the early days of Seattle's wild history, and, of course, was never intended for this refined, Christianized age. Is there a law against opening the show houses on the Sabbath day in Washington? Undoubtedly there is. Has that law been broken? Yes, it certainly has. Who will be responsible if the law continues to be violated? Those whose sworn duty it is to enforce it. Will they do it? We will see. There is coming a day of reckoning. And the ballot is a mighty factor for righteousness when properly used. And it will be. The law should be obeyed by the owners of the playhouses without a word. Any man who wantonly tramples under foot the law is a dangerous element to our civilization, and such violation bodes no good to our city or state. Now is the time for law abiding people to rise up and declare themselves.—W. H. W. Rees. In withdrawing their support from the Seattle Y. M. C. A. because pool and billiards will be installed as part of the amusement features the Seattle Ministerial Association is playing into the hands of the devil in great shape.—Olympia Columbian. JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER. Last Tuesday, December 17th, was the anniversary of the birth of John Greenleaf Whittier, one of America's greatest souls. Throughout the entire country and even in many places in Europe, brilliant tributes were paid to his memory, and as the years go by and we get further and further from his memory, the more does he appear, as we look backward at the part he played in history, the immortal rather than the mortal. The part he played in the emancipation of the American Negro is sufficient within itself to immortalize his name, and when taken in connection with his whole life work his is a name and a memory that will never grow old. The following anecdotes of him by Mary B. Claflin, will be of general interest: *** With Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, his favorite theme was the occupations of heaven. They would sit—their two heads together—over the dying embers, at the twilight hour, and talk of what they should require to satisfy their souls in heaven. He said to her one day, "Elizabeth, thee would not be happy in heaven unless thee could go missionary to the other place, now and then." * * * John Bright would stand with his arms upon the mantel by his own fireside and repeat page after page of Mr. Whittier's poems. He said to an American lady who was visiting him, "I would rather see Mr. Whittier than any man in your country. If I go to America, I shall seek him first." Our own Lowell said his name was "Sweetly familiar to both Englands' ears." One has said: "I would rather give a man or a woman on the verge of a great moral FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1907 lapse a marked copy of Whittier than any other book in our language." * * * In one of our prisons there was a woman who seemed utterly callous to every good influence. It seemed as if the very spirits of the evil world had taken possession of her, and those about her had apparently no influence over her. One day, after a paroxysm of temper, when she was more like a wild animal than a human being, the superintendent handed her a volume of Whittier's poems, and asked her to sit quietly down and read "The Eternal Goodness." Returning after a half-hour, the superintendent found the poor, half-crazed creature still reading, her wild eyes softened with tears, and she said in subdued tones, "That is beautiful reading, but is it true what it says? Does God love me?" Often afterward she was found poring over the book, and her improvement dated from that hour. "Still thy love. O Christ risen. Yearns to reach these souls in prison! Through all the depth of sin and loss Drops the plummet of Thy cross! Never yet abyss was found Deeper than that cross could sound!" An eminent author once said: "I would crawl on my hands and knees till I sank if I could write a book that the plain people would read and love." This Whittier has done. *** A volume of Whittier's poems should be in every home—one not too fine for children to handle. It is worth while to economize to get one. The Household edition, published by Houghton, Mifflin & Co., Boston, Mass., price $1.50, is an excellent one. Its classification of the poems is very convenient and its illustrations are illuminating. It can be had at some department stores for $1.08. What better Christmas gift?—Mary B. Claflin. * . * * John Greenleaf Whittier was a prophet of God. His soul was in tune with all divine harmonies. He had visions with his eyes open. He was no dreamer, but a seer. He realized the woe and wretchedness of the slave. His songs thrilled the souls of patriots, philanthropists and Christians. They would not, they could not rest till all yokes and chains and shackles were broken and forever destroyed. All the people of our great country have abundant occasion to thank God for our Quaker Prophet, Seer, and Psalmist.—Bishop Mallalieu. If an apple orchard with ordinary cultivation and handicapped by Whatcom county marketing will yield over one hundred dollars per acre, what will an orchard under proper cultivation and scientific marketing produce, and what line of business will give a larger or more independent return to the investor than such an orchard?—Sumas News.

MEN OF PROMINENCE. J. Will Lysons of Olympia, was yisiting in the city this week. He was twice secretary of the senate of this state, two years secre- tary of the railroad commission and since 1899 has been secretary of the Republican state central committee. At present he is doing capitol correspondence for a number -of leading papers. While here he signed the Trimble mayoralty petition, thus getting in with the push. i. A, Chadwicks foliday «<Argus 1s the most handsome publication ever issued in the West. Nothing in the interest of Seattle ‘shows the city and the community to as good an advantage as this number. Its modesty is only equalled by its artistieness. It costs us fifty cents and this gratis mention to get it, but it is cheap at that. George Primrose, the burnt cork artist of minstrel fame, who has seen the world and its fullness, has been playing at the Seattle theatre all the week, and about the highest compliment. that can be paid to him is, he seems to be the same old field as of yore, if not a little more so, but there is no fool like an old fool, so go it George. A, E. Richter, who lives at Alki Point, un- blushingly states he saw two airships spying round over Seattle last Sunday. In the past Mr. Richter has done nor said nothing to commend him to fame, but that is either no longer true of him or his airship observations are due to the Sunday closing, which has brought about the jug habit in the bush. Thomas S. Lippy, he of Klondike fame, of Seattle investment fame, of chureh donation fame, and of Y. M.C. A. fame, returned from the recent meet of the association in Wash- ington City, where he was honored by being placed on the executive board, last Monday. He, after learning that the preachers opposed thé installing of billiard and pool tables in the new Y. M. C. A. building, immediately said, ‘‘there aint going to be any put in,”’ and Brer Allen said, ‘‘Amen,.’ Dr. M. A. Matthews, who has dabbled into almost everything that has come up in either a publie or a private way, has found time between drinks to build, furnish and dedicate one of the most imposing church edifices in ww TACOMA WATER FRONT At W and U THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN the Northwest. It was dedicated last Sunday and was visited by thousands of curio seekers and Dr. Matthews himself seemed to attract the greatest amount of attention, The organ is the finest and most elaborate instrument in the whole West. Ishom F. Norris, president of the Sunday Forum of Seattle, anounces that, that organi- zation will hold emancipation exercises the evening of January Ist, at the Afro-Ameri- ean Hall, 2613 East Madison Street, to which the general publie is invited. The speaking for the occasion will be confined to a num- ber of short ten minute talks as follows: Introductory remarks, The President; Negro in History, W. M. J. Wylie; Emancipation Proclamation, Rey. J. W. Edmondson; Ne- gro in Journalism, Wesley C. Peoples; In Business, I. Isarel Walker; In Profession, A. Garfield Harrison; A Citizen, H. R. Cayton. E. E. Wager, Ellensburg’s leading Demo- erat and one of her foremost citizens, was eaught in the act of doing Seattle one day this week. Wager not only shakes the hay- seed out of his whiskers when he hits Seattle. but he actually gets his shoes shined and it, was in that act he was caught last Monday. He was twice elected prosecuting attorney of Kittitas county. ~ 1 Will H. Parry, who has slowly but surely become one of Seattle’s leading business men, who was three times elected city comp- troller of Seattle, four years councilman-at- large, and who could have been repeatedly nominated for Seattle’s chief executive, is to quit Seattle for a number of years. He will move to Pasco where a syndicate in which he is heavily interested, has a large tract of irri- gated land, and he is to supervise its devel- opment. The business men will miss his counsels. Charles Chamberlain, famous for his many political coupes in this state and likewise famous for having been unanimously elected to the office of wreeckmaster of King county many years ago, which office he has never been able to get rid of, says he has been read- ing the editorials in the Post-Intelligencer on the mayoralty situation and in order that Seattle may get just such a model mayor as the P.-I. desires her to have, he sees nothing left, but for him to permit himself to ‘be 3 nominated and elected and to that end his candidacy is herewith announced. WASHINGTON’S WEEKLY REVIEW. Here is where the Yakima Daily Republie makes a wise guess. It says: ‘‘We think that within five years Sunnyside land values will be double or treble what they are now.’’ —Republican. The report that John L. Wilson of the Se- attle Post-Intelligencer will be a candidate for governor, may be true or it may not, but what we have seen and heard of the gentle- man leads us to believe that the State of Washington has few men as able to fill the place.—Island County Times. Judge C. H. Neal, at one time judge of this district, was elected mayor of Daven- port last week. The judge stated his position before the election, telling the people that he would enforce the laws to the letter and he was elected by a large majority.—Big Bend Empire. While Odessa ranks fourth in amount of taxable property, commercially it is the most important town in the county. We do not say this in a spirit of boastfulness, but state it as a plain fact, that is evident to any ob- serving person. And personally, we are proud of our town and its development, and of course don’t like to see it underrated.— Record. TIME OF ADMISSION OF FORTY-SIX STATES.

If the veterans of the great Civil War have an available candidate for this place, the sooner they trot him out the better for the Republican party. * * * Clark M. Nettleton will not be a candidate for mayor, his over-enthusiastic admirers to the contrary notwithstanding, for the reason that, he is not a resident of Seattle, but a resident of Kirkland where he votes. Evidently Clark foresaw that there was serious danger of him being pushed into the mayoralty race, which explains why he moved to Kirkland last summer. * * * It has been definitely decided that City Engineer Thomson will not run for mayor because he is ineligible under the city charter. Mr. Thomson's friends have been hoping against hope that a legal opinion would be favorable to his becoming a candidate, but it was not and so R. H. Thomson in connection with the mayoralty nomination must be forgotten. * * * Unless the Pie-maker is sadly mistaken Henry L. Strowbridge, Washington's A.-Y. P. executive commissioner, is in serious danger of losing his official head and all because he is not a mixer. He is not only not a mixer, but he impresses one as being sadly lacking in diplomacy. His best friends refuse to talk about the matter, which prompts the Piemaker to predict that his official head may drop at any minute. * * * John E. Humphries' candidacy for mayor may be a huge joke, but from the crowds that go out to hear him speak its apparently a joke that a great many folk desire to listen to. Mr. Humphries seems to labor under the delusion that, the thing that's not worth working for is not worth having, and he, therefore, is not permitting the grass to grow under his feet in the present municipal contest, and he is about "three-thirds" right. * * * J. B. Metcalf, in all human probability, will be the Democrat's only candidate for mayor. The friends of Mayor Moore hoped that the Democrats would endorse the mayor for er-election, but at this writing it seems to be a forelorn one. With Metcalf as the nominee of the Democratic party and Moore the nominee of the City party, the nominee of the Republican party will be practically without opposition at the poles election day. * * * Jim Agnew may have a lead pipe cinch on the Republican nomination for sheriff, Democrat though he has been all of his life, but there is one man in the county that he had better keep a weather eye on lest he cause his lead pipe cinch to spring a leak, and that man is none other than Dr. C. E. Hoye, who, in spite of his reticence on the subject, is still being substantially boomed for the shriviality nomination. THE SEA TTLE REPUBLICAN The council gave Dr. Brier a strip of water front last Monday evening that at this very moment is worth thousands of dollars, all because Dr. Brier is said to be a great political wire-puller, and Councilman Gill thinks he is sadly in need of help out there in order that he be nominated by the Republicans to succeed himself and thus the people pay the freight for election purposes. BENCH AND BAR A Juror's Oath. When a juryman takes an oath to try a criminal case can he find the defendant not guilty of the offense with which he or she is charged, if the defendant admits on the stand and the same is corroborated, that he or she is guilty as charged, without said juror himself becoming amenable to the law? Grant that the law is an obsolete one, or more plainly speaking, not a popular one, still, if it is a law, has the juror, in the face of such prima facie evidence, any other alternative but to return a verdict of guilty as charged? Will some one of the many aspirants for judicial honors in King County or elsewhere answer this question? Selecting the Judges. At a recent bar meeting of King County attorneys a proposition was submitted to them to consider the idea of the bar selecting the six judges for the county and give the people no voice in the matter. If the proposition receives the endorsement of the bar, and, if the attorneys all agree to abide by the findings and conclusions of the bar, then the people be ——, as once said a great financier. However it seems to have the earmarks of a "nigger in the woodpile." If it would work in King it would work in every other county of the state, and finally in the supreme court and then the country would be burdened with one of the most dangerous oligarchies that ever existed in a free country. Just think, the people not being permitted to JOHN RIPLINGER Who Writes That He Is Being Jobbed in Seattle, and That He Will Return Some Sweet Day Bye-and-Bye. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1907. have any voice in the selecting or naming of the men before whom they would have to appear in defense of their lives, their homes and their holdings. Under such circumstances what rights would the all sovereign people have that the judges would feel bound to respect. The lawyer makes the laws, the lawyer interprets the laws and now the lawyer is to decide who is to execute the laws. This endless chain reminds us of "I'll take the turkey and you take the turkey buzzard, or you take turkey buzzard and I'll take the turkey" as the white man said to the Indian in dividing the spoils of the hunt, which seems quite apropos in this case. Barber Law Down and Out. In partially knocking out the barber law of this state the only criticism that we have to offer is, the law was not completely knocked out. That the law is a "fence," under which all kind of sharp tricks are practiced is verily believed by most everyone that has given the subject a moment's consideration. For an example, barber schools have sprung up like mushrooms all over the state, and in all of them it is said the state barber commissioners are more or less financially interested, and if the applicant does not hold a certificate from some one of those schools he has no more show of passing the required examination; which has little if any bearing on the shaving and cutting of hair, than a snow ball has in flying through hades. Another phase of these schools is, they will not permit Negroes to attend them and as a result, there are to not exceed three or four dozen Negro barbers in the entire state. Even in the shops that are patronized exclusively by Negroes it is next to impossible to keep barbers enough to accommodate the customers. This is done for no other purpose than to drive Negro barbers out of the business. Its only occasionally that a Negro applicant gets by and then ugly rumors are heard about how much he had to give up to get by, this however, is only heresay and speculation, but that only a few Negro barber applicants ever pass the state examination is not speculation, but cold hard facts as the records will verily testify to. Judge Milo A. Root, one of the members of the State Supreme Court, with headquarters at Olympia, is taking a short vacation and incidentally giving Santa Claus some instructions as to the best route to reach his home. He is one of the ablest jurists on the supreme bench and his opinions have been quoted from the Pacific to the Atlantic and in a way that reflected great credit on his legal talent and judicial ability. When the board of health compelled every householder in the city to purchase $3 tin garbage barrels and discontinue the use of wooden ones under the pretext of guarding against the bubonic plague, it looked far fetched, but they submitted. Now in ordering every householder to buy two mouse traps for the same purpose, it either looks like a standin with the dealers or that some one has bubonic plague on the brain.
