Seattle Republican

SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. XIV. NO. 47 POLITICAL POT PIE There is still considerable talk about the iron-clad agreement between Ankeny and Piles, which was responsible for Piles being elected to the senate. When the existence of such a document is being seriously questioned every day it would seem that the parties so vitally interested in the contents of said agreement would, see to it that it come to light that the business men of Seattle may know just what is expected of them. "If King county had to pledge herself in writing to support Levi Ankeny for senator this year in order to get Piles four years ago, then I am for Ankeny when I have been shown the signed, sealed and delivered document to that effect," said a prominent business man one day this week, "but I am from Missouri," he continued, "and you must show me." Hundreds of voters feel as the above business man and it is up to the Crocker-Stevenson bunch to either put up the documentary evidence or shut up and unanimously nominate Wesley L. Jones to succeed Levi Ankeny in the United States Senate. M. E. Hay, the merchant prince of Wilbur, Washington, passed through Seattle en route to Alaska on a hunting trip. While in the city he gave it out that he was in the hands of his friends and if they thought it advisable he would be a candidate for lieutenant governor. He himself will be gone some five or six weeks, in the meantime his candidacy will either have been launched or dropped. It will be remembered that he was a candidate for the lieutenant governorshipfour years ago and was juggled out of it by the gang. He claimed he represented the people while the gang represented the corporations which explained why he lost. If he decides to go into the coming fight he will have an opportunity to prove that he represented the people four years ago as he claimed. He is being backed by the friends of Governor Mead and if he enters the fight it will mean Mead will sweep Lincoln county by a 10 to 1 vote. There will be more for the coming state convention to do besides elect ten delegates to the national convention, which has to an extent either been lost sight of or overlooked in the mad struggle to get to Chicago. The convention must nominate five presidential electors and choose a campaign committee. Generally speaking not much importance is attached to the nomination of presidential electors, which is more or less a mistake as an unpopular man might be named as one of these electors and get skinned at the polls as happened in other states, it therefore behooves the delegates to the state convention to select good men for presidential electors nominations and much discretion should likewise be displayed in selecting the localities from which they come. The Pie-maker would suggest that two of these electors come from the third congressional district, two from the second and one from the first, and that one not from Seattle. As was forecasted in THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN some two weeks ago I. M. Howell of Tacoma has announced his intention to make a fight for the nomination of secretary of state subject to the vote of the direct primary. Mr. Howell is one of Pierce's favorite sons, and she has twice honored him to official positions, each time giving him the largest popular vote of any one on the ticket. He will receive the undivided support of all the daily papers of the county SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, Friday, April 17, 1908 and has the approval of the Post-Intelligence of this county. He has the following to say : "In announcing my candidacy," said Capt. Howell, "on my residence of thirty-one years in the state and on my administration of the county office to which I have been twice elected. The office of secretary [Name not provided] CAPT. I. M. HOWELL of state is one of the most important in the gift of the people. Even a cursory examination of the law governing its duties and its requirement shows that it is one which comes intimately into touch with the development and the progressive side of the state. I believe that it is an office which, perhaps more than most, requires youth and energy of the prime requisites of its holder, and my friends are kind enough to say that I possess those qualifications. The office is one that demands the installation of modern business methods, since it has most to do with the business men of the state. These methods if elected, I propose to install. If I am chosen for the office, it will be my purpose to give a clean, square administration. I will be more interested in the discharge of my duties than in playing politics. I have not the means nor the inclination to make a sensational campaign through the state. My record as auditor of Pierce county, I believe, is my best recommendation for the promotion in the public service which I seek." PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. Edward Clayson, Sr., the lone Pop from the Pacific Coast, returned to Seattle this week and is tickled to death over the attention the papers gave him during his stay in St. Louis. Samuel Hill, the good roads king, is home for a five weeks' visit to the East and looks the picture of health. Mr. Hill is not very hopeful over the financial outlook and yet he does not speak so awfully disparagingly about it. Charley Chamberlain, who some weeks ago left Seattle to become a spoke in the Hanford Irrigation Company, has been visiting in the city for the past week and is quite enthusiastic over his work. "It beats politics a mile and a quarter," he was overheard to remark. State Library BLICAN 17 1908 PRICE TEN CENTS Mrs. W. W. Chapin, nee Miss Helen Wilson, who stood sponsor for the Washington at the time she was launched, and who was present to receive her in the harbor at Seattle last week, returned to her home in Los Angeles, last Tuesday. Mrs. Chapin, the daughter of former Senator John L. Wilson, is exceedingly popular in the Northwest. C. A. Hughes, who for many years was manager of the Post-Intelligence, when it was a mere infant in comparison to what it now is, but who for the past twelve years or more has been otherwise engaged, is again at his old post and will succeed S. P. Weston the business manager whose resignation will take effect April 30th.

LYSONS, Secretary. 1. 2 The Cost of Raising a Family While these people are discussing the problems of supporting a family of two or three on $1,800 per year, I am sitting here wondering what they would do with their money. I graduated in 1877, saved up a few hundred dollars on a salary of about $60 per month and was married in 1882. For eighteen years I taught school on a salary of from $600 to $1,000 per year. I have a wife—as good as they make them—and four children, aged 11, 19, 22 and 25. From these children I have never asked or received a dollar toward the support of the family. What they earned they have used as their own. The eldest has a little real estate, a motor boat and some money in the bank. The second has a surveyor's transit and surveyor's equipment that cost him $300, and an equity in about 100 acres of good land, and has about $200 in the savings bank. The next, my only daughter, has a piano and about $100 in the savings bank. The youngest has about $25 in the savings bank. The eldest boy has had three years in the State University. The second one is now in his third year. My daughter has graduated from the full course at the State Normal School. The youngest goes to school every day. I have paid for their education. During the period of family raising I have lost my entire household equipment, worth at least $1,000 by fire, without insurance. I lost $400 in a newspaper venture. I have paid for support of churches, political parties, and grafters of one sort and another not less than $500, probably twice that man. During that time, and prior to 1900 my entire income was my salary. I never received a gift, legacy or other assistance from anyone. Since 1900, I have made some business ventures which have been more or less successful. But before I could make these ventures it was necessary for me to have a little money. This I had secured in the form of $2,000 life insurance policy in a good old line company. I took the insurance when my first baby was born, and religiously kept it in force. It was the foundation of my financial success, if my present very modest state of prosperity can be called by that flattering term. I have always lived comfortably. I have often paid $40 for a suit of clothes, and my wife never wanted me to wear less than a $3 hat. My wife has done her own housework, trained her own children, stuck to her own husband, and occasionally taken one or two boarders, to help out when the hardest times were on us. I never allowed myself to go into debt, except to pay life insurance or to buy property. I have not always paid cash for expenses, but have settled all such bills monthly. Fortunately we have all been well, and outside of fares paid to the stork we have contributed less than $25 in all to the doctors. I have had no expensive habits, though I have owned three horses. In 1900 I gave up my salary and ventured in business, but I have carefully kept my living expenses within the old lines, for, as I say, we have always lived comfortably enough. I would be glad to go a little oftener to the theater, travel a little more, give a little more to causes which I cherish and help a few deserving friends. I hope to do so some day. Now, if I and my wife have done this on a salary of never to exceed $1,000, and more often $800 per year, I would like to know what is the matter with people who get $1,700 or $1,800 a year, and think they must forego the joys of a family for fear they will die in poverty. My advice to these people is that they would be taking a long step toward ultimate prosperity if THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN they should voluntarily ask for a reduction of salary to about $1,000 for the next two years. But these people will not take advice. Let them climb and die. — April American Magazine. BENCH AND BAR. (From Georgetown Gazette-News) The attorneys of King county, in a meeting that some believed would take an unfavorable view of the plan, have decided that it is wise to hold a primary for the attorneys of the county separately to express their preference for judges of the superior court. This action is doubtless wisely determined on, since the judgment of so large, so well informed, and so dignified a gathering should be impartial and scientific. The only danger that seems to lie in such action, i.e. that of placing a judge under political obligation to an attorney who might practice before him, seems to have been removed; hence we agree with the lawyers that the plan is good, though we were of an opposite opinion before the decision was made. There has been much talk about the judicial ability of certain lawyers, as well as that of certain judges who are candidates for re-election. It is easier to compare the work of the latter than of the former, and since the supreme court of the state is a clearing house, so to speak, of their decisions, it seems proper at this time to present the following table, carefully prepared by one in whom we have confidence, to use as a basis for judging of their relative strength. More in way of illustrating their respective strong points, of course, than as in any manner a criticism of any of them It is understood that Judge Griffin is not a candidate, but his record is so high that it seems just that he should have the honor of having it presented with the rest. The table shows the record of cases appealed to the supreme court which were tried from and after January 9th, 1905, and before April 1, 1908. Cases dismissed are not counted, but the list of cases affirmed, those reversed and those modified is practically complete and correct. If any are overlooked it is a clerical omission and unintentional. The table follows: Judges Af'md. Rev. Mod. Frater . . . . 26 7 6 Albertson . . . 32 15 4 Griffin . . . 29 13 4 Morris . . . 23 11 2 Tollman . . . 12 8 2 Gilliam . . . 15 11 1 Our readers will of course have their respective opinions as to which judge holds highest place, but certainly Judge Frater stands high, very high, and those who have read his decisions will nearly all agree that he is a jurist of rare ability, as well as a judge of good sound "horse sense" in equity cases. The temperance wave is not confined to to this country alone. A bill has been introduced into the British House of Commons providing for one saloon for every 750 persons in the city and one saloon for every 400 persons in the rural districts. It is estimated that should this measure become a law over 30,000 saloons will be wiped out. Detroit, Michigan, is the pill town of the world, more pills being manufactured there than in all the other towns and cities in the world, which, by the way, is almost astounding. Over two thousand varieties being manufactured there, variously estimated as amounting to six thousand million. Friday, April 17, 1908 Insurance of Bank Deposits The Oklahoma law providing for the insurance of bank deposits has been in operation less than a month, but so far, all indications point to its success. Four hundred and sixty-six state banks took out insurance certificates—certificates being denied 26 banks that could not pass the rigid examination. There are in the state 309 national banks. Of these, 29 had by March 10th, received certificates, 73 had been examined by the bank examiners aud will go in as soon as the stockholders ratify the contract. More than 60 national banks have requested examination, and others have called stockholders' meetings to determine the policy of the bank. It is predicted—by those who is in position to know—that within a short time proctically every bank in the state will have taken advantage of the insurance. The bank of Commerce of Shawnee, Oklahoma, on the 29th of February, inserted the following advertisement in a local paper: "Before the Depositors' Guaranty Law went into effect, we had on February 12th, 1908, deposits, $239,544.54. Seventeen days under the protection of the Depositors' Guaranty fund of the state of Oklahoma our deposits have grown to be, $270,-324.89. An increase of $39,780.35. No reason to worry. What more do you want?" Who will say that the Oklahoma plan is not succeeding? It has been said that banks would go out of business rather than to incur the risk of having to pay the depositors of other banks. Experience does not support this. The state banks have come in, and the national banks are trying to get in, and deposits are already increasing. The people feel that they have a safe place to deposit their money. The deposits are going to be protected; the big bank will not much longer be permitted to build up a "prestige" at the risk of the depositors of the country and the welfare of each community. Congregationalisms' New Creed 1 We believe in the personality of God the Father, transcendent as Maker and ruler of all things, and yet, through his eternal Spirit, immanent in the world, and particularly in man and his history. 2 We believe that sin, so far from being necessary to man's development, is, as a distrust of God, and disobedience to him, a perversion of the moral and religious nature, which apart from redemption, would involve man in ruin. 3 We believe that Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, came into the world to reveal the holy love and grace of God, and to redeem men by the sacrifice of himself once for all upon the Cross for the sin of the world, so conveying to the individual believer the divine pardon. 4 We believe that this pardon is appropriated by faith in Jesus Christ, and that by this faith the Holy Spirit, producing union with the living Lord, regenerates human nature to eternal life. 5 We believe that the regenerates are the true Church, to which, among other sacred obligations, is committed the task of transforming the world, morally and socially, into the Kingdom of God. 6 We believe that the Bible is God's book, because it enshrines the divine revelation culminating in the historic coming of Christ, his life, death and resurrection, and the gospel therein contained. 7 We believe that all truth is to be received as from God, and that the apparent conflict between science and religion not only can be adjusted, but is at the present time approaching a reconciliation.

Address; Rooms 629-631 Burke Bldg., in Seattle, King County, Washington. March 27—May 8, 1908. SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Published Every Friday at 307 Epler Block. Phone Main 305. H. R. Cayton .....Editor and Publisher Susie Revels Cayton .....Associate SUBSCRIPTION RATES. One Year .....$2.00 Six Months .....1.00 Three Months .....60 Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second Class Mail Matter, If all the anarchists in this country were deported, it occurs to us the South would be practically depopulated. Governor Johnson may not succeed in putting the "matchless one" down and out, but he is badly worrying him. "Why Italians Leave Home," is a head line. We suspect it is because they find it easier to "git da mon" abroad than at home. Politics in this state cannot said to be a hot number at this stage of the game, but it is certainly getting its fighting clothes on. If the office of secretary of state does not Howell for Tacoma after next January it will be no fault of the Republicans of the City of Destiny. Though it may be clothed in a tiger's skin, yet as soon as Democracy sends its campaigners out, the people will discover its the same old braving ass. "Sailors Coming with a Pocket Full of Money," says a P.-I. headline, which almost makes the saloon man and the dive keeper smile for they know they will get theirs. If J. P. Donohue, the architect, is sent to the penitentiary for obtaining money under false pretenses, it will be a true case of, every man is the architect of his own fortune. Snohomish county thinks she has plenty of Nichols for pin money for the state house, which accounts for her offering her own and only Sam to the voters for their suffrage. Senator J. B. Foraker may be bumping his head against a stone wall in his defense of the Negro soldiers, but he is making the administration squirm like an eel in a salt tub. It begins to look as if Lincoln county proposes to make Hay while the sun shines, and which will result in that county sending to the next legislature the lieutenant governor. We suggest that President Roosevelt go to Brownsville, Texas, as soon as he leaves office if he desires to visit "the rugged and unfrequented parts of some foreign country." ```markdown ``` THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN [Name] Dr. G. H. SPARLING Who seeks Republican nomination for Coroner In New York war is being made on sky scrapers, which is all very well and good, since New York has all the sky scrapers that it can reasonably afford to erect for the next quarter of a century. Osculating Hobson seems to be just about as crazy on the war question with Japan as he was on the question of kissing young girls after returning from the war with Spain. He is not exactly a Don Quixote, but he is very near it. Billy Neail, the pugilistic sport, may be correct in saying; "Jack Johnson," who is to fight Tommy Burns, "has a streak of yellow in him," but those who know Johson best deny the allegation, though they do admit that, he has a bad streak of black in him. We are awfully glad, dear reader, that you take such keen delight in reading THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN every week, but somehow or other those complimentary climaxes do not pay our printer. Are you a subscriber? If not, why not? The annual of the New Herald, of Tacoma, is again with us and is full and overflowing with good things about Tacoma. The Bells know how to get up neat publications and in their annual they always thoroughly demonstrate that fact. A get rich quick fake has sprung up in our city and the officers declare there is no way to head it off. If it is a fake, as the officers openly declare it is, then it is a violation of the common law and the common law should suppress it, if it has to do so by main force and violence. It made Governor Hughes smile all over his face when he received the four at large delegates of New York. Jumping Jehosephat, suppose the man should receive as many votes as Big Bill Taft has already secured, he would be just one big, bland, child-like smile from head to foot. ```markdown ``` Friday, April 17, 1908 If Levi Ankeny has done as much charitable work among the ranchers as the Seattle Times would have us believe, we are greatly surprised that, Mr. Ankeny is not a pauper instead of a billionaire. Some policemen may not break the laws by burglarizing houses, but the policeman who will not take a piece of money to see and yet not to see when he is on duty, is perhaps the exception and not the rule. Last Tuesday was the anniversary of the shooting of the Great War President Abraham Lincoln, forty-three years having passed since that memorable event. Many changes in our common country have taken place since that unfortunate tragedy, but the South is the same old South, and would do it again. When the saloons refuse the AfroAmerican sailors drink as other sailors, it is a blessing in disguise for the sailor, but it is a most damnable outrage when some of Uncle Sam's sailors are refused because their skins are black, and especially in a city where the freedom of the city had been extended to them. Saloon men who violate the Sunday closing law seemed doomed to even more trouble than they had under former Mayor Moore. In the future they will not be punished and then told, go sin no more, but will be bounced out of business where it will be impossible for them to sin no more at least by selling liquor contrary to law. William Steffins is again in the public eye in the way of boot legging liquors at the Madison park. Steffins seems to delight in breaking the law and if he is found guilty the court should give him the limit and then some. Any person that will persist in breaking the law simply because it is an easy way to make a bit of blood money should be driven out of the country, for such person is as rabid anarchist as ever threw a bomb. Prohibition advocates are declaring that the presidential nominee of the party will receive five million votes next fall, which to say the least will be a most lamentable affair. Those advocating prohibition have no higher ambitions than to simply pulverize the rum power, which is all very well as far as it goes, but they have no plans for running the government, and if they were turned into power tomorrow they would be as much at sea, so far as running the general government is concerned as a Hottentot. Borrowed Thoughts An Illinois editor who became tired of wielding the whitewash in the matter of obituaries, decided to reform and tell the truth just once. He commented as follows upon the death of a well known citizen: Died-Age 56 years, 6 months and 1 day. Deceased was a mild-mannered pirate with a mouth for whiskey and an eye for boodle. He came here in the night with another man's wife and joined the church at the first chance. He owes us several dollars for the paper and a large meat bill, and you could hear him pray two blocks. He died singing "Jesus Paid it All." He never paid any himself. He was buried in an asbestos casket and his many friends threw palm leaf fans in the grave as he may need them. His tombstone will be a favorite resting place for hoot owls. Friday, April 17, 1908 THE QUEEN CITY No firm doing business in Seattle has made so many manifestations of carrying nothing but the purest specimens of garden seeds as the C. H. Lilly Company, and yet a government expert has discovered that, what that firms sells for pure Kentucky blue grass seed is more than half adulterated with Canadian grass. Hundreds of persons have bought blue grass seed from this firm because they thought it perfectly reliable, only to discover after the grass had begun to grow that if there were any blue grass at all in it, to find it would require a miscrospic glass. When firms like this flagrantly deceive its customers one does not know who to trust. If the other commodities this firm sells are as badly poluted as its grass seeds, it must be a rotten concern. Out of the $351,000 the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition has collected, $218,478.18 has been expended on construction and the balance, $151,291.00 has been paid out as salaries and expenses. The men who fathered this exposition had an eye single to business for they have succeeded in getting together a bunch of money, of which pretty nearly one-half is turned over to high salaried officials and self-important attorneys for handling the whole. Barnum, the great show king, said: "the American people love to be humbugged." Whether Barnum was correct in his assertion the writer is not prepared to say, but one thing is certain, when they are humbugged they seldom if ever make any protest, and it seems to us that the above is a most brilliant illustration of it. William Dietz, a travelling salesman for a Seattle firm, is of the opinion that Seattle ought to advertise in Hawaii. It occurs to us that Seattle did quite a bit of advertising in Hawaii last summer when she wined, dined and danced that bunch of beauties that the P.-I. said was here looking for husbands. If every one of them caught a Seattle boy for a husband, what greater advertising could Seattle do in Hawaii, even if the fellows bring their wives to live in Seattle instead of they themselves going to live in Hawaii. And again is not Ranier on tap all over the island, and every time a native gets good and gloriously drunk Seattleites on the island can point with pride to the good effects of Seattle spirit on the natives. The Polk Directory Company announces that Seattle now has a population of 276,462, which if true, puts Seattle ahead of the Pacific coast except San Francisco, but is it really true? In 1910 the United States will take a census of Seattle, and even then we have our doubts if the enumerators will report that many inhabitants in Seattle. When a western city is desirous of a few extra thousands of inhabitants ore of the quickest ways to get the number is to send for some directory company and report the size of her purse, and if agreeable the directory company will do the rest. Coming so close on to Lilley's attack on Mare Island it looks a good deal like another big real estate boom is about to be pulled off in Seattle. How much the Seattle boomers paid Representative George I. Lilley to advocate the abandonment of Mare Island is doubtless known only to the inner coterie of the speculative gentry that do things when real estate is dull. But whether or not it was a real estate fake it matters not, but every one is willing to admit, it is nothing more than hot air. The Bremerton station may be vastly superior to the Mare Island station in every particular, but THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN with California's standing in Congress, if one or the other was ordered abandoned it would be ten to one shot Bremerton. Even men who you would think are too much burdened with the momentous cares of state, some times talk through their hats, using the street vernacular, and this abandonment talk of Representative Lilley is a most brilliant example of such. [Name not visible in the image] MAJOR JONH F. CONANT In the death of John F. Conant, Seattle loses one of her best and most respected citizens. He had been sick for the past three months, but up to that time he was actively engaged in business. Being proprietor of the Bailey Lunch, where from 400 to 500 business men took their midday meal every day, made him one of the most widely known men in the city. Mr. Conant was an ideal gentleman, and the world is better by far for both his precepts and practices. Piled up a hundred deep, figuratively speaking, are the locomotives of the Northern Pacific railway company at South Tacoma where the work shops and round house for the Pacific division are located. As the train whizzed by the hundreds of idle engines attracted general attention. All of those engines are lying idle in the yard because of the difference between the railroad folk and the lumber barons, and as in this yard so in the yard of every trans-continental railroad that taps the Northwest. Prior to the troubles between the railroad barons and the lumber barons there were not half enough engines and cars to take the traffic away, but here is a case of Greek meeting Greek, and hades is to pay. In the mean time the country is going to the dimnation bow wows while these men scrap over two bits. Coming home one day this week on a Northern Pacific train, three young men sat in two seats turned together and among them no less than six bottles of beer were distributed which they proceeded to get on the outside of, and that too, despite the fact the coach in which they were riding was more or less filled with lady passengers. As they drank from the bottles in plain view of every one, it seemed such a pity that Congressman Heflin of Alabama, was not there to regulate them with the assistance of his 45, and teach them to have some manners in the presence of white ladies, notwithstanding the fact the men were all white men and apparently young men of good families, only they were out for a time. Mr. Heflin has plenty of work to do if he will only get out and look for it, and we hope he will get about his father's business as soon as Congress adjourns if not sooner. 5 Mr. H. R. Cayton, the genial editor of THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN, blew into the Echo office thh other day. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN can be relied upon to do and say the proper thing at the proper time under the management of a tactful and experienced man like Editor Cayton. We have read THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN for years and notice that it is free from offensive personalities and neeedless criticism. —Sunday (Tacoma) Echo. Edward Cudihee, who was twice elected sheriff of King county, and that too despite the fact the county is overwhelmingly Rebublican, has just returned from a two months' visit at his old home in Michigan. "I think times are improving in the East and the flurry is about over. It looks as if the fight for the presidency is going to be between Taft and Bryan, although the Republican convention would nominate Theodore Roosevelt at the dropping of your hat. He is by far the strongest man in the whole United States." The capture of the bandits or murderers of the Kent officers by the sheriff and his deputies after two desperate battles with them, in which one of the officers was severely wounded, as well as one of the highwaymen, show the determinedness of the sheriff to suppress crime. While the sheriff and every one of his deputies are to be congratulated for their work, yet the work of Matt Starwich, the Ravensdale deputy, is deserving of especial mention. Matt has succeeded in landing more desperate criminals in the county jail than any other deputy, and at the same time has made a most successful peace officer at the Ravensdale mining camp. The young men who are held in the county jail as the Kent bandits or highwaymen, do not seem to be hardened criminals, but misguided young men, who tried to turn a trick and having got caught in a pocket in the attempt, shot their way out, and after they had done the first shooting, grew desperate to get away. J. Edward Hawkins, a well known Seattle Afro-American attorney, was in Olympia one day this week on legal business for the I. B. P. O. E. of W. of Seattle, which have filed incorporation papers with the secretary of state, which have been held up, owing to the protests of the B. P. O. E., a similar order which is confined to white persons only, on the ground of infringing on a copyright name. Mr. Hawkins was surprised to also find filed against his order another protest eminating from Afro-Americans, who allege the order he represents is clandestine, which, to say the least, was an unexpected surprise. What another order of colored Elks could expect to gain by preventing a contemporary order from incorporating in the state is a question that puzzles, and it matters not which was clandestine. If the order which has already applied is refused incorporation papers it is as absolutely certain as night follows day that, the other order will be denied the same privilege if it ever asks for incorporation. A failing of the Afro-Americans among themselves is, "if I can't get it you shall not," and here is a brilliant illustration of that short sighted policy. Let the other fellow get through and you have a fighting chance of so doing also, but when you help to close the gate against your brother because the two of you do not agree, then you will sooner or later find the same gate closed against you. A move which seems to be already fraught with success, however, has been put on foot for the two Afro-American Elk lodges to unite, and a committee from each of the lodges, of which Mr. Hawkins is a member, will meet in Philadelphia next August to perfect the consolidation. 6 SUMMONS IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, in and for the County of King.

Mr. and Mrs. Russell will leave for the East one day next week to be absent some six months. Most of the men will have an opportunity to say next Sunday when his wife and children start for services, Easter has her charms, but he can soliloquize with himself that they are darn expensive. Mrs. Lee Williams, who has been seriously ill at the residence of Mrs. Ella Brown on 26th avenue, is rapidly improving and will be out within a few days. Mrs. Wallace, wife of Rev. J. N. Wallace, has been confined to her room for a week with a severe cold. A large number of our citizens visited the cruiser Washington and were well pleased with the courtesies shown them. William Birthright, of Butte, Mont., spent two days in the city this week. Mr. Birthright was en route to Alaska where he spends the summer each year. A number of young men of our race have organized an athletic club and inaugurated its opening with a ball at the Afro-American hall on Wednesday evening. Prominent among the founders of the club were Leroy Bundy, Ira Norris, Robert Harvey, Carl Washington, Percy Norris. It is predicted that more will be heard from this club later. The Lotus Club, a literary and musical organization among the young people, gave their annual ball last Friday evening. A good time was had by those present. The young ladies of the Sunday Forum are preparing for an entertainment to be given at the hall on Friday, May 1st. Fuller particulars next week. Mrs. McKitrick, of Indianapolis, Ind., who has been visiting her son, Mr. Fred Mitchell, of this city, will leave Sunday for her home. There will be an Easter program rendered at the Afro-American hall Sunday evening, April 19, at 8 p. m., by the Sabbath school of the Methodist Episcopal Church. This is a new society being organized by Rev. J. N. Wallace. The program promises to be interesting as well as instructive, as there will be some select reading touching the work of the Methodist Episcopal Church among Negroes, Italians, etc. A special offering will be asked for the work of the Missionary Society. Come out and help us. The services were well attended last Sunday, and the class recently organized has every reason to believe that there will be a larger success in the future. At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Lawhorn, 825 So. State St., Wednesday evening, April 15th, Miss Daisy Taylor (Lawhorn) was married to Mr. John F. Doage, of this city, in the presence of relatives of the contracting parties, Rev. S. J. Collins officiating. The bride and groom have a host of friends among the young people of the city, who wish them bon voyage on the matrimonial sea. Miss Taylor was raised by Mr. and Mrs. H. P. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Lawhorn, she being a daughter of Mr. Lawhorn's sister, who died when Daisy was nine months old. The bride was the recipient of a number of beautiful and costly presents. The young couple will spend their honeymoon in Seattle. Mr. Doage is a barber and works at his trade in his father's shop in this city. At present the young people will make their home at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Lawhorn. Those present were Rev. and Mrs. S. J. Collins, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Doage, Mr. and Mrs. L. C.

THE BURGESS-BUNTING COM PANY AT THE SEATTLE THEATRE. Theatre-goers in Seattle can congratulate themselves on having this most clever organization of actors and actresses as a summer attraction this season. It will go a long way toward advertising us in the East as an all-year theatrical city, which means a splendid place to spend the summer, and will make us famous as a summer resort, at the expense of our neighbors to the south of us—for where the theatrical performance can be enjoyed during the summer in a well-equipped theatre in Seattle, and the people of the East are sweltering and gasping for breath, sooner or later they are going to wake up and emigrate to God's country. That is why the fame of Seattle has become great for summer theatres, and Messrs. Russell & Drew were the first ones to discover this, profit by it, and reap a golden harvest of sheckles for themselves and the fortunate companies they have brought here during the past several years, among which the Burgess-Bunting Company at the Seattle Theatre this week holds first rank as a dramatic organization. Seattle has had some pretentious and good companies in the past, but as a melodramatic organization of the better class, nothing comparable with the one which will occupy the Seattle Theatre for the next twenty weeks. Miss Emma Bunting is an actress in a class entirely of her own; she is sure to become a C., during the stirring war times of 1863. Going to the Seattle Theatre will become a habit, not only with society people, but the great middle classes, consisting of families, the very patronage that such plays call forth, and the class of dramatic offering that reaches the hearts of all well-thinking people and by which they are benefited greatly as well as amused. favorite with everybody who witnesses one of her performances. This week the company is presenting "Anita, the Singing Girl," a play that everybody can enjoy and learn something from as well. Next week, starting Sunday afternoon, "A Colonial Girl" will be the play. In it Miss Bunting appears as "Polly Primrose," a little heroine descending from the early colonists. The scenes are laid at Georgetown, near Washington, D. If you wish to marry, or correspond with refined ladies or gentlemen, address "Seattle Select Club," P. O. Box 922.
