VOL. XIV. NO. 45
POLITICAL POT PIE
Governor, (1st choice) - Albert E. Mead, Whatcom.
Governor, (2nd choice) - Samuel G. Cosgrove, Garfield.
Lieutenant-Govenor-John D. Atkinsos, Chelan.
Secretary of State-I. M. Howell, Pierce. State Treasurer-E. K. Erwin, Spokane. Attorney General-R. H. Kipp, Colfax. State Auditor-C. W. Claussen, Kitsap. State Land Commissioner-E. W. Ross, Cowlitz. Insurance Commissioner-George B. Lamping, King.
The above ticket has been suggested to the Pie-maker for the consideration of his readers. While there may be some seeming inconsistencies in it, yet on the whole it has considerable merit. John D. Atkinson, who is an avowed gubernatorial candidate, would probably not think of becoming a candidate for lieutenant-governor, and yet if he would, his nomination would be almost certain.
As has been previously said in these columns, whatever strength Governor Mead may have, will be for first choice, and if he is not nominated by that, he will be down and out. Mead, however, has more strength than his opponents are willing to give him credit for, and if he does not win the nomination, he will come awfully near it. That Sam Cosgrove has a great deal of first choice strength no one but a fool will deny, and that he will bag the bulk of the second choice vote becomes more and more apparent every day: He will not only get the vote that goes for Governor Mead, but will get the state vote that goes for McBride; all of which means that, Mr. Cosgrove has, after all, the best show to be the next governor of this state.
I. M. Howell, who has entered the race for secretary of state, and who hails from Pierce county, where he has twice been elected county auditor, is not unmindful of the fact that his opponent, the Hon. Sam H. Nichols, is a very popular man and will be hard to beat, but he has received sufficient amount of encouragement to make him feel justified in risking the $30 register fee on it.
R. H. Kipp, who is seeking the nomination for attorney general, hails from Whitman county, and is highly spoken of all over the state. Should he enter the combination mentioned above, he would be a tower of strength to it, and he at least be a sure winner.
E. K. Erwin, who seeks the nomination for state treasurer, hails from Spokane, and while he does not carry the vote of the county in his pocket, yet he has never appealed to the voters of the county for their suffrage but what he got it. That he would be a strong spoke in the above wheel is plain to be seen.
C. W. Claussen, who was elected state auditor four years ago, hails from Kitsap county. So far as going into any conbine, he would not do so, but he has no opposition, and is therefore only used to fill out the ticket. Mr. Claussen is as good as nominated now.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, Friday, April 3, 1908
[Name]
Colonel George B. Lamping, Candidate for State Insurance Commissioner. No opposition to E. W. Ross, who hails from Cowlitz county, has developed as yet, and it looks as if he was certain of a second term as state land commissioner. Mr. Ross like Mr. Claussen, is taking no part in any combination that is being formed, but is simply moving on in the even tenor of his way.
Col. George B. Lamping, who will be a candidate for insurance commissioner, hails from King county and is quite popular at home. His opponent, the Hon. John Henry Schively, also hails from King county and is likewise popular, and a battle royal will be the result of Greek meeting Geeek in this instance. But Lamping has a brilliant military record to fall back on, and he thinks best of all the support of the big Seattle morning paper.
It will be observed that in this prospective ticket no mention is made of superintendent of public instruction. Since the death of Superintendent Bryan it will devolve on the Governor to name his successor, and whoever that is, will doubtless be the most favorable candidate for the nomination. It would seem to the Pie-maker that if the Governor would name a superintendent from some county which has no representative on the above ticket it would add another strong spoke in his political wheel.
Dr. S. F. Wiltsie, who for the past eight years has been deputy coroner of King county, thus serving through two administrations, will ask the Republicans of the county for the nomination of coroner, and in doing so believes his record for the past eight years as deputy will be one of the strongest reasons for his nomination. During the time he has been deputy he has made hundreds of official calls taking him in every section of the county and wherever he has been he has always made many friends. As a physician and surgeon he is very popular in the city and his friends believe that he will, the numerous candidates to the contrary notwithstanding, be able to get twice as many votes in the city as any two of the other candidates. Dr. Wiltsie has never aspired to office holding, and is a candidate for the coronership because of his long experience with the office.

PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.
Representative Cole, from Alaska, is cutting as many capers in Congress as a genuine March hare.
Paul D'Heirry, at one time quite a light in local Republican circles, has begun the publishing of the Georgetown Republican, "just for fun."
Tom Taggart, the Indianapolis Democrat wheel horse, is still national committeeman from Indiana. It is hoped by Republicans that he will manage the next Democratic campaign.
A. F. Statter, Senator Ankeny's private secretary and political manipulator, is again in Walla Walla with his shoulder to the wheel. Evidently Statter got thoroughly alarmed about the progress the Boxers are making.
Miles C. Moore, the last territorial governor of Washington, was defeated for an honorary office in a Taft league organized in his home city last week, which means there will be Moore to follow.
Senator Levi Ankeny sent a charity organization of Seattle, that asked his assistance to the extent of one dollar, his blessings instead of the dollar.
Samuel G. Cosgrove, after a month's campaigning in and about Seattle, left for other parts of the state last Tuesday. If he is not the next governor of Washington it will not be his fault.
Rev. Lee A. Johnson, of Sunnyside, Washington, twice elected to the legislature of this state, aspires, so says rumor, to succeed W. L. Jones in the house of representatives of Congress. Six others of that district are of a like opinion.
Col. C. C. Dlaton says the SEATTLE REPUBLICAN published the best picture of Henry McBride four years ago that was ever published. Do you, Colonel, consider that in this statement you are given the devil his due?
Sherwood Bonney, a Washington pioneer, died last Monday at Sumner. He about a month ago celebrated his 95th birthday. He was the father of L. W. Bonney, of Seattle, who looks younger to-day by twenty years than he did twenty years ago.
Dan Lesh, the former statesman from North Yakima, was in Seattle the other day and looked as familiar as when he carried Yakima county in his vest pocket. He has been East for some time on private business matters.
Officer Applequist by persistent efforts got a favorable opinion from the Civil Service Commission in regard to his suspension from the police force, but since his jail record has come to light, we suspect he wishes that he had not.
Ed Dickson, the statesman from Ellensburg, attended the meeting of the A. Y. P. Exposition Commission the first of the week. "No, no politics in Ellensburg. All of the gubernatorial aspirants have some advocates there, but perhaps Mead leads all the rest. But say, that was a great fight the P.-I. put up for Miller. Wonder if Miller and his friends realize that the P.-I. elected him?"
Sometimes we demand what we ought not, and when we do not get satisfaction we grumble. The case of the British Columbians in attempting to throw the so-called Natal Act at the Japanese immigrants reminds us of a wilful child who does not want to have the friends of the family about the house. The Imperial government of England and the Colonial government of Canada are bound by treaties and by their policies friendly toward the Japanese to welcome them in the Canadian provinces.
We do not want to find fault with the British Columbians, nor with any other people on the Pacific coast of North America for being discourteous occasionally. Fifty years ago some of our fathers in Japan had shown discourtesies, perhaps more humiliating than those of to-day, towards the foreigners. If our countryman on the coast are humiliated, one and only one consolation we can have in bearing the ills that we know of, is to go back in our own history and think that we are paying the bills our misdirected fathers had incurred in their days.
It is curious to note how things change as years go by. Fifty years ago it was the Japanese who childishly tried to expel foreigners. Today it is the people of the nations—or at least sum of them—who helped Japan to adopt the policy of open door, who are now trying to expel our countryman from the lands which they claim are their own exclusively. Our critics may say the foregoing is not a good

Personal Mention
Paul Morton, former secretary of the navy, and at present president of the Equitable Life Insurance Company, is visiting in Seattle and incidentally looking after the insurance business.
John C. Murphy, who for a number of years was more or less prominent in state and local politics, but who dropped out of sight something over a year ago, is in the city again and says that he has been getting hold of coal lands in Alaska, which should not be a very hard thing to do.
Senator Jeff Davis, the political curio, from Arkansas, was arrested in Little Rock last Tuesday charged with carrying a revolver. The statesmen from the South seem to be anxious for gun notoriety these days. James J. Hill is of the opinion that trade will revive very slowly in the United States, but nevertheless very surely. We believe the very same thing, which should leave no doubt of it.
Dr. C. E. Hoye, former coroner of King county, stands a most excellent show of being the next sheriff of the county.
Samuel Hill, who is in Washington City conferring with the secretary of state concerning good roads, wires that he has been quite successful.
Edgar C. Raine, who went to Colorrdo and Arizona for his health something over a month ago, has returned and announces that he will be a candidate for county clerk to succeed Major Case.

In speaking about Senator Ankeny's inability to make a public speech one day this week some one was mean enough to quote the following jingo:
The man of millions has no need. C. orator's wiles to wait.
On oratory's wiles to wait
He merely lets his money talk

And the applause is always great.
Is it possible that J. Henry Smith of the local land office is guilty of wrong doing? Certainly not, for J Henry looks too innocent and inoffensive to be guilty of any right doing let alone any wrong doing. He does not look qualified to do anything, right or wrong.

welcoming the "gentleman" class and the laboring class, so far as the results produced concerned? Both helped or are helping to develop the resources of the countries where they immigrated. There is no question that the Pacific coast regions need Oriental labor. Without it the development of the country will not be satisfactorily effected. Common sense judgment should tell any one that cutting the number of co-workers in the conquest of nature will mean so much detraction or stagnation.
The truth of the matter cannot be easily pounded into the heads of those knight errants of exclusionism, who simply don't want "Japs" in Canada or America. Influence of logical arguments is necessarily limited. Beyond the limit it can never go by itself. There must be something else besides it to propel it. When the exclusionists exhaust their points of argument they fall back upon the plea that they do not like the Japanese. If they do not like, they claim that they have all the power to expel what they do not like. There is no argument that can beat that.
"White Canada, Orientalls must go!" This is the slogan of British Columbians. Under this banner of barbarism they caused the Natal Act to be passed. But sooner or later this banner will be haulled down. Only it will take a little time before we shall see that done. Meanwhile we will keep on devising means to refrigerate the hot air, thereby hoping that in the near future the nightmare of Oriental invasion shall fade away, and that the exclusionist will be completely disillusioned from the effect of pipe dreams. — Japanese Current.

REPRESENTAIVE HEFLIN SHOOTS
A representative in Congress from the state of Alabama, Thomas J. Heflin by name, saw fit to regulate a Negro, who was a fellow passenger on a street car, for some infraction of Southern ethics, and in carrying out the program drew a revolver and seriously wounded the Negro and likewise wounded a by-stander, a white man, for which the representative was arrested and is now out on a $5,000 bail.
If the published reports be true, there is no denying the fact that, the Negro was both crude and uncouth and especially so since there were a number of ladies in the car, but by what right or law did Mr. Heflin have to regulate him? Why did he not with the aid and assistance of the conductor, motorman and white passengers, detain the drunken negro in the car until a policeman could be called? Had the authorities delegated unto him the arduous task of regulating misbehaved Negroes to the extent of killing them if they resisted him, throughout the District of Columbia? That Mr. Heflin had no more right, justice, cause or excuse to precipitate a row with that drunken Negro than an Indian statute, is plain to be seen. Throughout the North the trainmen are supposed to be the peace officers while their cars or trains are in transit, and passengers are only called upon to render assistance when they find that they are unable to maintain order.
But being from Alabama, Mr. Heflin felt that he was justified in regulating any boisterous, unruly Negro, from his view point that came under his observation and that is where he is sadly mistaken. Because he had introduced a Jim Crow street car bill in Congress for Washington City and had received a number of threatening letters, he was given permission to carry a gun to protect himself from men boiling over with righteous indignation, he used it to regulate a Negro, who evidently did not even know that his fellow passenger (white) was the monstrosity from Alabama, a damphool by nature and a murderer by practice, and in doing so it looks as though in the getting of permission to carry a gun for self-protection, it was but a subterfuge to get a gun in his pocket that he might kill a Washington City Negro just to play even for their independence in sending him threatening letters.
Now Mr. Heflin's political and public prominence to the contrary notwithstanding, he should be put on trial for the degree of the offense which he has committed, and if there be any justice in the courts, he should be found guilty and given the limit by the trial judge.
It often happens that white men from the South become insulting in public places in the North. Can you imagine what would happen if some black man, however prominent he might be in the community, should attempt to regulate him, and in the scuffle shoot the man and likewise an innocent bystander? Yes, you not only imagine what would happen, but you know what would happen.
THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
Some of the black folks of Washington City may have been willing to do Mr. Heflin an injustice if an opportunity would have presented itself, but that particular one showed no disposition to do so, he was simply an uncouth Negro, and Mr. Heflin chagrined at not getting his damnable Jim Crow car law through Congress, vented his spleen by abusing the first Negro that gave him the hundreth part of an opportunity. He believes a majority of his fellow members in Congress will sustain his murderous assault, and it may perhaps be the means in some way of helping his sleeping measure to life again. Let justice be as blind to the prominence of Mr. Heflin as it would be if the drunken Negro had have done what he did, and in its blindness send Representative Heflin to the penitentary for just as long a term as it would have the Negro for the same offense. Let his murderous constitutents return him to Congress if they like after his discharge from prison, but let the courts do its duty by seeing that the law is no respector of person and will punish the criminal without taking into consideration his color, condition, creed or public prominence.
Praise Our Schools
A little hearty praise of our national educational system on the part of an intelligent outside obseever will do us no harm, but rather will stimulate us to further efforts in behalf of our public schools. It is pleasant therefore to read such words as the following from the pen of Miss Kate Stevens head mistress of Montem Street, School, London. She says: "It is widely acknowledged that the American schools are amongst the best in the world. And they certainly are if we judge them either by the alertness, intelligence and adaptability of the pupils educated in them, or by their desire and efforts to continue their education after the end of the compulsory school age. The general level of intelligence amongst the working men in America is admittedly higher than with us. After visiting the States twice—for three months in 1889 and again for six months in 1906, and seeing for oneself how true the above certainly is—one asks: 'How does it come to pass?' The atmosphere and tradition amongst the American-born children have been reared, and the freedom and scope there is for each individual who depends upon his own industry and development are of prime importance. The necessity for self-help and self-improvement is impressed upon every pupil—how the future prosperity of the country depends upon them. The dignity of work the disgrace of idleness, are inculcated from the very first." This is a fine compliment to the spirit of our institutions. It sets before us a high ideal. May we all strive to live up to it.—From Education, Nov., 1907.
Editor O. M. Moore, of the Hoquaiam Washingtonian, was convicted of libel in the superior court at Montesano last week. The charge grew out of a letter which Mr. Moore wrote Senator Poulson in which he made certain references derogatory to the character of another man. With the spirit of revenge Mr. Poulson gave the letter to the third party, and in the trial Juge Linn refused Mr. Moore the right to attempt to prove his charges. The judge's rulings are being severely condemned by those who are in a position to know the merits of the the case. -Elma Chronicle.

EDITORIAL NOTES
Oh, yes, Mrs. Eddy is easily pacified, but it takes the "long green" to do it.
How often since 1902 has Henry McBride and his friends voted the Republican ticket?
Cotterill, politically dead, seems to give local Democracy as much worry as Cotterill "belly much alive."
"Give your neighbor a Socialist book," says the Olympia Capital. What for, to make an Anarchist of him?
Representative Heflin has begun his campaign advertising quite early in view of the fact that, his district is hopelessly Democratic. Bryan and Johnson have met on the pass across the Democratic mountain and it not being wide enough to pass each other a deadlock seems inevitable. Assessor Parrish may think he is popularizing himself by burdening our merchants with excessive taxation, but he will find out better when he goes to suck.
Charley Gillette may have been innocent of murdering "Billy" Brown as declared his mother, but she seems to be the only human being that believes it.
Seattle milk men declare there is no milk combine in Seattle which may or may not be true, but they will hardly deny that, there is a milk-water combine in Seattle.
Flying Tom, the American car in the New York-Paris race, may think it had a hard trip across the continent, but it is nothing to what it is going to have across Alaska and Siberia.
Editor Ryan may be correct in saying, "Taft's true friends and advocates are among the Ankenyites of the state," but he joshes so much, that Taft does not know how to believe it. "Mme Paderewiski paid $7,500 for four chickens, while her husband paid $13,000 for a piece of Seattle real estate," says the Times. We suspect that they have since drawn straws to see which was the bigger damphool. If all the Anarchists bomb throwers were as successful as that one in New York last week that killed himself while trying to kill the police, bomb throwing would become unpopular.
In the death of R. B. Bryan, state superintendent of public education, the state loses a useful and exemplary citizen and the cause of education an able and successful exponent. He has directed the destinies of the office most of the time since statehood, in fact all the time except a four-year term filled by Prof. Brown, who was elected during the free silver epidemic. The officials of the state house paid homage to his memory, in that while his body lay in state, their offices were closed. Peace to his ashes.
C. F. Cushman had no more right to shoot motorman Arnold than did Representative Heflin the Negro he shot, and both should be sent to the penitentiary for their natural lives. Suppose Arnold did willfully slap the face of an aged man, it was not Cushman's "put-in" to regulate him, and in butting in he committed a rash and uncalled for crime, for which he should be punished. His plea of self-defense is as flimsy as the usual insanity dodge so often plead to escape the gallows. There is altogether too much such reckless killing as this, and nothing will so effectively put a quietus on it, as to send the perpetrators of such crimes either to the gallows or prison for life.

BUILDING UP THE NATION'S WEALTH
[From Roesevelt and the Money Power.]
It is a positive pleasure to describe the effect of the policies of President Roosevelt. Every man, woman and child in the country has enjoyed throughout his administration the luxuries which accompany an abounding prosperity. Had the President been as mischiefously inclined as his enemies would have us believe, it would not have been difficult for him, with the immense power his office affords, to have embarked upon a course which long ago would have brought disaster. As it is, the President, by his determination to make honesty and decency triumphant, has been more conservative than the men who claim to be conservative but are really reactionary. During the past six years:
Commerce has increased by $1,057,000-000. Manufactures have increased $2,000-000,000. Crops have increased by $2,058,-000,000. Transportation by rail increased 500,000,000 tons. Transportations on the Great Lakes increased by 30,500,000 tons. So much for the prosperity of the country generally. Now as to the effect upon the individual: Unfortunately the industrial statistics available are only those of the Census Bureau for 1900 and 1905. Yet they give a fair idea of the Roosevelt policies. They show that: The number of indsturial establishments in those five years, four with Roosevelt as President, increased by 8,700.
The capital employed increased by $3, - 700,000,000.
The number of salaried officials and clerks in industrial establishments increased by 155,000.
The salaries of salaried officials and clerks in industrial establishments increased by $190,000,000.
The average number of wage arners increased by 609,000.
The total wages paid increased by $602, - 000,000.
The value of products of all the establishments increased by $3,400,000,000.
Now let us turn to the conditions of our farmers.
In five years the value of our farm real estate increased almost $7,600,000,000.
In five years the value of domestic anima's increased more than $1,000,000,000.
In five years, then, the farmer's total capital, as composed of domestic animals, other live stock and implements and machinery, increased by at least $8,600,00000.
During the last 7 years, the farmers have produced an amount of wealth that have made them more prosperous than the farmers of any country of any age.
The value of their products in 1901 was $5,300,000,000. In 1907 it was $7,358,000,000., an increase of $2,058,000,000.
What has been the effect of this tremendous prosperity upon the farmer:
His standard of living has risen. He has become a traveler. He has his telephone, his daily mail and his newspaper. He is debt free. He has money in the bank: or his promissory note is good.
Thus we see the wage worker, the salaried industrialists and the farmer increasingly benefitted during the years President Roosevelt has been at the head of the nation. We know also that the shipper no longer suffers from bare-face discriminatory methods, and that the small dealer stands a better chance in competition with the powerful corporation. The general practice of giving and receiving railroad discrimination has never been so curtailed as is the case to-day. We find that our food has been made more healthful, our drink purer, our medicines freed from adulterations. We see more careful

scrutiny of immigration. We see action to conserve our mineral forces. Wherever the need, there the President has acted; and not only the present but all future generations will enjoy the fruits of his wise policies.
OUR PRESIDENT
THRODRE MOOREVELT
Let us glance for a moment at the steps taken by President Roosevelt to conserve our natural resources. The National Forest Policy as it now exists has taken shape during the present administration. On October 1, 1901, the area of the Government's forests, then under the administration of the Department of the Interior, was only 46,153,119 acres. To-day, six years later, the National Forests have an aggregate area of 160,000,000. The year before the consolidation of the Governments's forest work, the income from the use of the National Forests amounted to $59,000. For the fiscal year ending June 30th, last, the proceeds amounted to more than $1,530,000. These figures show that the great areas in the National Forests have been brought to a condition where they are beginning to serve the purposes of the West. The conservation of timber and forage through wise use and the protection of stream flow is the only insurance of many industries which have contributed materially to the prosperity of the country.
The forage crop of the 160,000,000 acres of National Forests support cattle, horses, sheep and goats which pay into the pockets of Western stockmen in profits something like $10,000,000 annually. The annual timber crop which these forests are capable of producing would be worth, on the the stump, at present prices, perhaps $10,000,000 more, and probably ten times this amount when prepared for market. In many regions, the National Forests are the only guarantee that the user of wood will be able, in the future, to get it at any price.
By the wise use of the enormous resources of these forests, which, under the operation of the land laws would, but for their withdrawal from entry by Presidential proclamation, now be almost wholly in private hands with only nominal compensation to the public; they can be made, so to speak, to develop themselves. Without their conservation and development, there is not a form of human activity that would not, at some future time, suffer hardship.
At any rate, the Southern Negroes have never been out of sympathy with the President in regard to "race suicide."—Charleston News and Courier. No, the Negro has never been a party to "race suicide." And in that our white brothers may observe a potential future for the race.—New York Age.

NOTES OF IMPORTANT DECISIONS
Bankruptcy-New Promise to Pay Debt Discharged. That a discharge in bankruptcy is a complete bar to all debts provable in the proceedings, and that the burden rests upon the party attacking the discharge to show cause why it is not effectual is held in Meyer v. Bartels, 107 N. Y. 778. The defendant had been discharged in bankruptcy in 1902, and the debt sued on in this case was one that accrued prior to that time. Plaintiff conceded a discharge in bankruptcy, but alleged a revival of the debt under a new promise and partial payment. The evidence for plaintiff was to the effect that the new promise was oral, and that at the time the promise was made a payment of a dollar was made on account, all of which was contradicted by defendant. In reversing the judgment and dismissing the complaint, the court says: "The discharge in bankruptcy, was an absolute bar to all demands that were provable in the proceedings, and the burden rests upon the party attacking the discharge to show some cause why it is not effectual. Stevens v. King, 19 App. Div. 374, 44 N. Y. Supp. 893. On the theory of partial payment and new promise, the statute of frauds specifically provides that such a promise must be in writing. Wheeler v. Simmons, 60 Hun. 15 N. Y. Supp 542, demonstrates that partial payment on account of a debt that has been discharged in bankruptcy is not sufficient to renew the original indebtedness or create a new obligation on the part of the debtor to pay the balance due." This decision, of course, rests upon the statute of New York. There are a few other jurisdictions in which it is required that the new promise must be in writing. But in the absence of such a statute, the new promise need not be in writing. The legal obligation to pay the debt if released, but the moral obligation remains, and will support a new promise to pay. It has been said however, that the new promise "must be clear, express, distinct, and unequivocal, and without qualification or condition. It need not be in waiting unless a state statute so requires.—Law Journal.
The Manufacture of Buttons
At the census of 1905, establishments with a capital of $7,783,900, were reported as engaged in the manufacture of buttons. These factories furnished employment for 11,335 persons, who earned an aggregate of $4,371,669, and the value of the products was $11,138,769; this including button blanks and other products. The leading variety of product was pearl buttons. The value of the 13,143,553 gross of such buttons was $4,870,274. As between fresh water and ocean pearl, the former greatly predominated, with 11,405,723 gross, valued at $3,359,169, or 69 per cent of the value of all the pearl buttons. Twenty-one states engaged in the manufacture of buttons, although only four had products valued at more than $1,000,000. New York was the leading state, with $3,849,317; New Jersey had $1,592,261; Iowa, $1,500,945; and Connecticut, $1,446,219. Almost one-half of the pearl buttons and about two-thirds of the vegetable ivory buttons were manufactured in New York. All the bone buttons were made in Pennsylvania. Button blanks were produced mainly in Iowa, the reports showing for this state 4,575,814 gross and a value of $594,946, or about two-thirds of the total. — Exchange.

The atmosphere and tradition amongst the American-born children have been reared, and the freedom and scope there is for each individual who depends upon his own industry and development are of prime importance. The necessity for self-help and self-improvement is impressed upon every pupil—how the future prosperity of the country depends upon them. The dignity of work the disgrace of idleness, are inculcated from the very first." This is a fine compliment to the spirit of our institutions. It sets before us a high ideal. May we all strive to live up to it.—From Education, Nov., 1907.
Editor O. M. Moore, of the Hoquaiam Washingtonian, was convicted of libel in the superior court at Montesano last week. The charge grew out of a letter which Mr. Moore wrote Senator Poulson in which he made certain references derogatory to the character of another man. With the spirit of revenge Mr. Poulson gave the letter to the third party, and in the trial Juge Linn refused Mr. Moore the right to attempt to prove his charges. The judge's rulings are being severely condemned by those who are in a position to know the merits of the the case.—Elma Chronicle.

Oh, yes, Mrs. Eddy is easily pacified, but it takes the "long green" to do it.
How often since 1902 has Henry McBride and his friends voted the Republican ticket?
Cotterill, politically dead, seems to give local Democracy as much worry as Cotterill "belly much alive."
"Give your neighbor a Socialist book," says the Olympia Capital. What for, to make an Anarchist of him?
Representative Heflin has begun his campaign advertising quite early in view of the fact that, his district is hopelessly Democratic. Bryan and Johnson have met on the pass across the Democratic mountain and it not being wide enough to pass each other a deadlock seems inevitable. Assessor Parrish may think he is popularizing himself by burdening our merchants with excessive taxation, but he will find out better when he goes to suck.
Charley Gillette may have been innocent of murdering "Billy" Brown as declared his mother, but she seems to be the only human being that believes it.
Seattle milk men declare there is no milk combine in Seattle which may or may not be true, but they will hardly deny that, there is a milk-water combine in Seattle.
Flying Tom, the American car in the New York-Paris race, may think it had a hard trip across the continent, but it is nothing to what it is going to have across Alaska and Siberia.
Editor Ryan may be correct in saying, "Taft's true friends and advocates are among the Ankenyites of the state," but he joshes so much, that Taft does not know how to believe it. "Mme Paderewiski paid $7,500 for four chickens, while her husband paid $13,000 for a piece of Seattle real estate," says the Times. We suspect that they have since drawn straws to see which was the bigger damphool. If all the Anarchists bomb throwers were as successful as that one in New York last week that killed himself while trying to kill the police, bomb throwing would become unpopular.
In the death of R. B. Bryan, state superintendent of public education, the state loses a useful and exemplary citizen and the cause of education an able and successful exponent. He has directed the destinies of the office most of the time since statehood, in fact all the time except a four-year term filled by Prof. Brown, who was elected during the free silver epidemic. The officials of the state house paid homage to his memory, in that while his body lay in state, their offices were closed. Peace to his ashes.
C. F. Cushman had no more right to shoot motorman Arnold than did Representative Heflin the Negro he shot, and both should be sent to the penitentiary for their natural lives. Suppose Arnold did willfully slap the face of an aged man, it was not Cushman's "put-in" to regulate him, and in butting in he committed a rash and uncalled for crime, for which he should be punished. His plea of self-defense is as flimsy as the usual insanity dodge so often plead to escape the gallows. There is altogether too much such reckless killing as this, and nothing will so effectively put a quietus on it, as to send the perpetrators of such crimes either to the gallows or prison for life.

BUILDING UP THE NATION'S WEALTH
[From Roesevelt and the Money Power.]
It is a positive pleasure to describe the effect of the policies of President Roosevelt. Every man, woman and child in the country has enjoyed throughout his administration the luxuries which accompany an abounding prosperity. Had the President been as mischiefously inclined as his enemies would have us believe, it would not have been difficult for him, with the immense power his office affords, to have embarked upon a course which long ago would have brought disaster. As it is, the President, by his determination to make honesty and decency triumphant, has been more conservative than the men who claim to be conservative but are really reactionary. During the past six years:
Commerce has increased by $1,057,000-000. Manufactures have increased $2,000-000,000. Crops have increased by $2,058,-000,000. Transportation by rail increased 500,000,000 tons. Transportations on the Great Lakes increased by 30,500,000 tons. So much for the prosperity of the country generally. Now as to the effect upon the individual: Unfortunately the industrial statistics available are only those of the Census Bureau for 1900 and 1905. Yet they give a fair idea of the Roosevelt policies. They show that: The number of indsturial establishments in those five years, four with Roosevelt as President, increased by 8,700.
The capital employed increased by $3, - 700,000,000.
The number of salaried officials and clerks in indnstrial establishments increased by 155,000.
The salaries of salaried officials and clerks in industrial establishments increased by $190,000,000.
The average number of wage arners increased by 609,000.
The total wages paid increased by $602, - 000,000.
The value of products of all the establishments increased by $3,400,000,000. Now let us turn to the conditions of our farmers. In five years the value of our farm real estate increased almost $7,600,000,000. In five years the value of domestic anima's increased more than $1,000,000,000. In five years, then, the farmer's total capital, as composed of domestic animals, other live stock and implements and machinery, increased by at least $8,600,00000. During the last 7 years, the farmers have produced an amount of wealth that have made them more prosperous than the farmers of any country of any age.
The value of their products in 1901 was $5,300,000,000. In 1907 it was $7,358,000,000., an increase of $2,058,000,000.
What has been the effect of this tremendous prosperity upon the farmer:
His standard of living has risen. He has become a traveler. He has his telephone, his daily mail and his newspaper. He is debt free. He has money in the bank: or his promissory note is good.
Thus we see the wage worker, the salaried industrialists and the farmer increasingly benefitted during the years President Roosevelt has been at the head of the nation. We know also that the shipper no longer suffers from bare-face discriminatory methods, and that the small dealer stands a better chance in competition with the powerful corporation. The general practice of giving and receiving railroad discrimination has never been so curtailed as is the case to-day. We find that our food has been made more healthful, our drink purer, our medicines freed from adulterations. We see more careful

scrutiny of immigration. We see action to conserve our mineral forces. Wherever the need, there the President has acted ; and not only the present but all future generations will enjoy the fruits of his wise policies.
OUR PRESIDENT
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
Let us glance for a moment at the steps taken by President Roosevelt to conserve our natural resources. The National Forest Policy as it now exists has taken shape during the present administration. On October 1, 1901, the area of the Government's forests, then under the administration of the Department of the Interior, was only 46,153,119 acres. To-day, six years later, the National Forests have an aggregate area of 160,000,000. The year before the consolidation of the Governments's forest work, the income from the use of the National Forests amounted to $59,000. For the fiscal year ending June 30th, last, the proceeds amounted to more than $1,530,000. These figures show that the great areas in the National Forests have been brought to a condition where they are beginning to serve the purposes of the West. The conservation of timber and forage through wise use and the protection of stream flow is the only insurance of many industries which have contributed materially to the prosperity of the country.
The forage crop of the 160,000,000 acres of National Forests support cattle, horses, sheep and goats which pay into the pockets of Western stockmen in profits something like $10,000,000 annually. The annual timber crop which these forests are capable of producing would be worth, on the the stump, at present prices, perhaps $10,000,000 more, and probably ten times this amount when prepared for market. In many regions, the National Forests are the only guarantee that the user of wood will be able, in the future, to get it at any price.
By the wise use of the enormous resources of these forests, which, under the operation of the land laws would, but for their withdrawal from entry by Presidential proclamation, now be almost wholly in private hands with only nominal compensation to the public, they can be made, so to speak, to develop themselves. Without their conservation and development, there is not a form of human activity that would not, at some future time, suffer hardship.
At any rate, the Southern Negroes have never been out of sympathy with the President in regard to "race suicide."—Charleston News and Courier. No, the Negro has never been a party to "race suicide." And in that our white brothers may observe a potential future for the race.—New York Age.

NOTES OF IMPORTANT DECISIONS
Bankruptcy - New Promise to Pay Debt Discharged. - That a discharge in bankruptcy is a complete bar to all debts provable in the proceedings, and that the burden rests upon the party attacking the discharge to show cause why it is not effectual is held in Meyer v. Bartels, 107 N. Y. 778. The defendant had been discharged in bankruptcy in 1902, and the debt sued on in this case was one that accrued prior to that time. Plaintiff conceded a discharge in bankruptcy, but alleged a revival of the debt under a new promise and partial payment. The evidence for plaintiff was to the effect that the new promise was oral, and that at the time the promise was made a payment of a dollar was made on account, all of which was contradicted by defendant. In reversing the judgment and dismissing the complaint, the court says: "The discharge in bankruptcy, was an absolute bar to all demands that were provable in the proceedings, and the burden rests upon the party attacking the discharge to show some cause why it is not effectual. Stevens v. King, 19 App. Div. 374, 44 N. Y. Supp. 893. On the theory of partial payment and new promise, the statute of frauds specifically provides that such a promise must be in writing. Wheeler v. Simmons, 60 Hun. 15 N. Y. Supp 542, demonstrates that partial payment on account of a debt that has been discharged in bankruptcy is not sufficient to renew the original indebtedness or create a new obligation on the part of the debtor to pay the balance due." This decision, of course, rests upon the statute of New York. There are a few other jurisdictions in which it is required that the new promise must be in writing. But in the absence of such a statute, the new promise need not be in writing. The legal obligation to pay the debt if released, but the moral obligation remains, and will support a new promise to pay. It has been said however, that the new promise "must be clear, express, distinct, and unequivocal, and without qualification or condition. It need not be in waiting unless a state statute so requires.—Law Journal.
The Manufacture of Buttons
At the census of 1905, establishments with a capital of $7,783,900, were reported as engaged in the manufacture of buttons. These factories furnished employment for 11,335 persons, who earned an aggregate of $4,371,669, and the value of the products was $11,138,769; this including button blanks and other products. The leading variety of product was pearl buttons. The value of the 13,143,553 gross of such buttons was $4,870,274. As between fresh water and ocean pearl, the former greatly predominated, with 11,405,723 gross, valued at $3,359,169, or 69 per cent of the value of all the pearl buttons. Twenty-one states engaged in the manufacture of buttons, although only four had products valued at more than $1,000,000. New York was the leading state, with $3,849,317; New Jersey had $1,592,261; Iowa, $1,500,945; and Connecticut, $1,446,219. Almost one-half of the pearl buttons and about two-thirds of the vegetable ivory buttons were manufactured in New York. All the bone buttons were made in Pennsylvania. Button blanks were produced mainly in Iowa, the reports showing for this state 4,575,814 gross and a value of $594,946, or about two-thirds of the total. — Exchange.
