Seattle Republican

State Library SEATTLE REPUBLICAN VOL. XIV. NO. 49 POLITICAL POT PIE Having some legal hesitancy of trying to subsidize the leading weekly papers of the state it is said that the representatives of Senator Ankeny have begun to purchase those that are making a hard fight against his return to the senate, and is making much headway along that line. In the eastern part of the state a number of influential weeklies have already been sold to mysterious persons, and no sooner do the papers change hands then they at once announce that they will support Senator Ankeny for re-election, showing very conclusively that the mysterious personage, whoever he or she might be, was working in the political interest of Ankeny and that Ankeny money controlled the paper, which in the past had been opposing him. By this means a majority of the more influential weeklies of the state will soon be supporting the candidacy of Levi Ankeny because they will belong to him, and it is hardly expected of them to oppose their owner in his political ambitions. The operations of those mysterious persons buying up newspapers of the state that are opposing Senator Ankeny have not been confined wholly to the eastern part of the state, for it is said on very good authority that, the Georgetown Gazette-News, formerly owned by W. A. Carle and others, has been purchased by a man who is now in editorial charge, but who is without practically any authority in the management of the paper. Ever since W. A. Carle has been interested in the paper it has been anti-Ankeny, yea even Carle himself, for alleged political grievances was opposed to the re-election of Senator Ankeny, but no sooner had the paper changed hands, then both the paper and Carle suddenly became rabid Ankeny men, giving as an excuse for the sudden change, they are endeavoring to hold up the hands of Senator Piles. Mr. Carle in the past has not shown as much loyalty to Senator Piles as he might have, and all this sudden change of heart would seem to leave the impression among knowing ones that that mysterious person that is going about the state buying up weekly newspapers has begun to operate not only in the western half of the state, but right here in Seattle. Some one has said that there was more ways of killing a cat besides choking him to death with butter, and Senator Ankeny and his friends seems to have found that out. --- Despite the billingsgate of the Evening Swillbarrell (Times) it looks now as if the Hon. John L. Wilson will lead the King county delegation to the Republican state convention at Spokane and that A. P. Sawyer will be one of the delegates to the Republican national convention. This sheet that is neither pig nor pup in politics is trying hard to break into the Republican party and be the party organ, but no one takes its frantic appeals seriously; and, say what it will or may, it will not drive many Republicans away from the support of good Republicans who are from time to time holding up the banner of the Republican party, when it is being attacked by just such skunks as the Swillbarrell (Times). There is no frame up for delegates to the state convention on the part of any one save and except Murky Matt and his buckoneering boss, but it is conceded by all factions of the Republican party that former Senator Wilson is entitled to the honor of heading the Spokane delegation if he so desires and that A. P. Sawyer is entitled to be one of the delegates to the national convention if he so desires. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, Friday, May 1, 1908 CANDIDATE FROM WHITMAN COUNTY R. H. Kipp Enters the Lists for the Nomination for Attorney General Mr. R. H. Kipp, prosecuting attorney for Whitman county, has announced that he will be a candidate at the coming primaries for the office of attorney general. Mr. Kipp was born in Iowa in 1876, and for twenty-one years of his thirty-two he has been a resident of Lincoln, Spokane and Whitman counties, being almost equally well and favorably known to all three. He is now serving his fourth year as prosecuting attorney for Whitman county, and is the only prosecuting attorney to be reelected to that office in the history of the county. 1920 Mr. Kipp is the only candidate for a state office from Whitman county, whose commercial and political importance, backed by Mr. Kipp's legal and executive ability, should in the opinion of his many friends and supporters, carry sufficient weight at the primaries to easily make him the Republican nominee for attorney general. He has an extended acquaintance in Eastern Washington and a large following on the west side, and in the event of his election the state could be assured of a thoroughly business-like and economical administration of its legal business. --- And now comes the wise one, who declares that, the mysterious person, who is skulking around over the state buying up newspapers and immediately converting them into rabid Ankeny sheets; and, who is also supplying the Times with the Ankeny benevolent dope, is none other than Horace McClure, who was induced by Senator Ankeny to give up a most lucrative position at Washington, D. C. to come back to this state to act as his press agent. It is said that this same Horace McClure has been having W. A. Carle in tow for some time, with view of landing both himself and his paper in support of Senator Ankeny, in which he has been eminently successful. On general principies the Times is a political guerilla and in Horace McClure it has a most excellent advance agent. All of those letters which appear in the Times from time to time as to the wonderful amount of benevolent charity Levi Ankeny has been burdened with for all these years, are manufactured in the rather versatile brain of Horace McClure as he sits at his mahogany desk in Seattle for the salary that there is in it for him. PRICE TEN CENTS And now comes a rather enthusiastic Republican, who was a Miller man in the late municipal contest and says he is for the Hon. William Pitt Trimble for one of the the presidential electors. He made a nice fight for the nomination of mayor and was beaten on account of being supported by the Times and it would be a nice thing for the Republicans to do to pay him that honor for the fight he made. ** ** J. Hamilton Lewis, former congressman from Washington, now a resident of Chicago, would like to be governor of Illinois. He has a novel plan of conducting primaries and elections. He would have no primaries, as such, but would combine election and primary, let the voters name their men and the persons receiving the highest number of votes at any regular election would be declared elected to office. It would certainly do away with a lot of red tape and might put a few million political workers out of business. -Colorado Springs Telegraph. 紫 绿 紫 Indications point to the nomination of S. C. Cosgrove for governor at the coming primaries. Mr. Cosgrove is not a candidate of the railroads, the corporations or any other tainted outfit and if he gets the nomination it will be by the vote of those citizens who want vigor and honesty in the executive chair. Mead was placed in nomination four years ago by corporate influences which he was restrained in some degree from serving by strong public sentiment. The corporations, therefore, don't want him, and Lord knows, the people don't. As for Mr. McBride, he once had the loyal support of the people of Eastern Washington until he played into the hands of the railroad companies in the nomination of Mead for governor while pretending to be an anti-railroad man. Mr. McBride will not know that he has been in race in Eastern Washington when the votes are counted.—Columbia Dispatch. * * * Speaking about Senator Wilson going to Spokane as chairman of the King county delegation recalls to the writer a few remarks he himself made on the subject at a luncheon one day last week. "I want to see the county convention name 132 delegates who will go to the state convention who will make a showing. I do not think it wise or politic to select a number of delegates to the convention just for political pap's sake, none of whom will think of making the actual trip to Spokane, but select such men, who, when the convention is called to order, will be in their seats on the convention floor and work for the best interests of King county." ** The open advocacy of R. A. Ballinger as one of the delegates at large by the Swillbarrel is done for no other purpose than it believes Senator Wilson also favored Judge Ballinger, and if it got in and whooped it up for him for once it would appear to the public the Times had won a point. How hard the Colonel tried to be somebody, and how hard he is turned down, which enough to drive him to drink. ** Call Main 305 when you have a legal notice for publication and watch us get there for it.

EDITORIAL NOTES Thompson my be losing his grip on Seattle, but no one believes it simply because the Times says so. Will the next presidential nominee be Teddy the Terrible or Taft the Toiler, is the all absorbing question. Mayor Mueller is defying Kenneth Macintosh simply because he believes as does everybody else, Kenneth is only joshing. If another term of justice of police was not wanted, Judge Gordon would never have thought of that early morning call again. If a politician is only able to employ a first-class press agent there is never any doubt of his honesty and integrity and even greatness. "Piles will take the stump for Ankeny," says an enthusiast. He might have added, "and Piles will take a political hearse for himself for so doing." Olympia is said to have voters therein who are violently opposed to Mead, due to the fact, we suppose, for Mead having saved them the state capital. In pledging support to the Republican nominee for president, the South Carolina Republican convention has sprung the greatest joke of the season. Senator Piles having fallen heir to the John Sullivan estate is sufficiently well heeled to help Senator Ankeny in his campaign next fall. It takes money to win. That was a sad catastrophe that overtook the Gulf States, which resulted in some 500 persons losing their lives, the most of them being Afro-Americans, That girl who was offered $200,000 not to wed may have gotten $500,000 by wedding, in which case she was not so foolish as might be imagined on first blush. "Is the Navy Large Enough," is a headline. It is if the United States will agree not to go to war with any nation regardless of any provocation that may arise. Raisuli, the dark-skinned bandit, who was reported dead, which brought so much gladness to Frenchmen's hearts is not only dead, but the liveliest corpse on record. Senator Ruth is said to be for MrBride for governor. Let Lieutenant Governor Coon take courage as Ruth may be for him before the campaign is over. Colorado Republicans in convention assembled cleaned up for Taft, sending an unanimous delegation to Chicago for him, and thus the good work goes on. Yellow journals are now busily engaged in making preparations to pull off a war between Japan and England, the one with the United States having failed to materialize. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Those tinhorn lumbermen that are anxious to get into a controversy with the P.I., doubtless have more money than they sense. Will Messrs. Ives and Brehem set up and take notice. May number of the American Magazine has William Howard Taft pictured in every phase of life, all of which shows beyond a question of doubt that, Taft has the presidential nomination bottled. Before one is able to find time to read and digest one of President Roosevelt's exhaustive messages he has another on hand. The president must live to write long and beautifully worded essays. If Nick Longworth said what he is credited with having said about President Roosevelt and a third term, then Teddy should use a pisselm club instead of the proverbial big stick on his damphool son-in-law. Local option is rapidly coming to the front as the paramount issue in the campaign in this state, which will reach a climax in the November election. In the fight however, instead of the fur flying the beer will fly. It is to be hoped that all this reformation that is said to be taking place in the county is no fairy story, but the real thing. However, its an easy enough matter to reform in a prison cell, but awfully hard to reform when at large. Assessor Parish may not be making many votes for himself, but he is getting his name in the papers and will thereby brighten the pages of history, and after all, what greater reward or legacy could one wish to leave for posterity. President Roosevelt failed to get all of the battle ships that he asked for, but he may have been playing foxy grandpa and asked for four to make doubly sure of getting two. This man Roosevelt works in mysterious ways his wonders to perform. After listening to the charges and counter charges of crimes and fraud in the fight for the possession of the estate of John Sullivan, who died intestate some nine years ago, there is no doubt but what a good name is to be preferred to great riches. Some hot shots are fired at District Attorney Jerome by his accusers these warm days, and either Jerome himself is a red-handed criminal or his accusers are the most damnable perjurers. Wait and see. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN credited its political leader last week to the Georgetown News-Gazette, which was a mistake and should have been credited to the Georgetown Republican. Such mistakes Mr. Carle thinks might work great injury in a financial way. Suppose after all Senator Foraker should bolt the Republican nominee for president and should take the stump against him? We fear it would not be another case of, "they buried him with his niggers," but he with his niggers buried the G. O. P. To say the least there is danger ahead. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney George Vanderver must enjoy a scrap from the amount of entanglements he always is in. Never mind, big man, the bug-German will catch you next September unless you walk more circumstantial. The present political and economic policy of Seattle seems to be more of a journalistic one than a business one. Friday, May 1, 1908 To Politicians and the Public In local politics, during the coming primary campaign, by reasons of the restrictions placed upon the public press by the new primary election law, the TribuneTimes, after careful study of, and advice upon said law, has determined upon the following policy: All candidates before the primaries, if mentioned at all, will be treated with exact impartiality in our news and editorial columns. We shall have no candidates of our own and will play no favorites for others. Instead, and in order that all shall be placed on an equal footing, and that no one shall have a better opportunity to reach the public than another, we have opened a "political department." properly labeled, as the law requires, paid advertising. This we offer to the candidates as a public forum in which they may set forth, if they so desire, the facts of their candidacy, and the positions and platforms upon which they will ask the suffrages of their friends and the public at the primary polls. A regular advertising charge will be made for all matter published therein, and while assuming legal responsibility for its publication, all other responsibility for such utterances as may appear is distinctly disclaimed. Inasmuch as the primaries of all parties, under the law, are held at the same time and place, this department will be open to all candidates of all parties alike. The primaries over, this paper will be found in its accustomed place supporting the nominees of the Republican party for election at the general polls. —Port Angeles Tribune-Times. THE RIDDLE OF SUCCESS By Dr. Madison C. Peters of New York Nothing great has ever been accomplished in the world without hard work, and what people call genius is merely the knack of putting one's shoulder to the wheel of life and never taking it therefrom until, inch by inch and step by step, you have rolled it up the steep hill on whose crest is the mansion of success. We hear and read of intellectual giants, industrial giants and giants in every field of action; but if we take time to analyze their lives and works, we will find that they are not giants at all—just ordinary individuals like ourselves, save that they so trained themselves and so dominated their wills that they availed themselves of every possible moment of time they could and put it to good use, while others were standing idly by, letting the golden gems of time slip through their fingers, never realizing that once lost that they were lost forever, and that no art or device could recover them. What costs a man little is usually worth little. Examine into great lives, and you will find the amount of toil that lies behind them is immense, and that every laurel in their crown was placed there by downright honest, hard work at the expense of body or brain. Some may think that constant work will make a man a drudge without any pleasure in the world at all—so it would if the man did not train himself to have a love and an aptitude for the work, which all can do, and then the drudgery in itself becomes a kind of pleasure. In the end we may all become divided into two classes the drones and the drudges, or the idlers and the workers—the drudges or workers "get there," the drones or idlers are left behind in the race. Drudgery is the secret of success every time. The old German inscription on a key, "If I rest I rust," is as true of men as it is of the iron key. To be bright and shining, to be successful and consequently happy, we must keep ourselves polished with the oil of work. Friday, May 1, 1908 PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS R. H. Kipp, prosecuting attorney of Whitman county, spent a few days in Seattle this week. Gov. A. E. Mead and Land Commissioner Ross have gone to Washington City to feast with the president and talk state craft. State Senator Walter J. Reed of North Yakima if said to be in exceedingly poor health, so much so, that real alarm is felt over his condition. Dugdale's Indians lost the first series of games of baseball the past week, and if they continue to play as they did, they will lose the last as well. Swan Lewis, one of the best known men in Seattle, died in Portland last Wednesday. He with his family had just started on a trip round the world. Former Judge J. C. Denny, of Everett, was in Seattle this week and made the announcement that Wyatt J. Rucker would be supported in Snohomish county for one of the delegate places to the national convention. W. A. Halteman, a member of the house of representatives of the tenth legislature from Ferry county, was a visitor to Seattle this week strictly on business. "Meet me at Spokane, spokesman," he shouted as he hurried by in order to catch the outgoing train. "Whom the Gods Would Destroy." "Whom the Gods would destroy, they first make mad." It would appear that the destruction of the liquor traffic is approaching, for those engaged in it are getting exceedingly "mad." At Rock Island, Illinois, not long ago, the whole city was shaken at three o'clock in the morning by the explosion of a dynamite bomb, which destroyed the $10,000 press of The Daily News. This paper has been engaged in vigorous assault upon the saloon and gambling element of the city, which took this cowardly means of retaliation. This crime not only destroyed valuable property but endangered the lives of at least a score of men, women and children who were asleep in the upper flats of the building. Why have our readers not learned of this diabolical outrage before? Because it was treated with silence by the daily press of Chicago. When The News applied to a paper in an adjoining town for privilege of using its press, the latter journal was notified that if it extended the accommodation it would also suffer. A Methodist minister at Turlock, California, was horsewhipped the other day because he opposed the saloons and brothels. The persistent efforts of Congressman Sims of Tennessee to have prohibition legislation passed for the District of Columbia threatens to end in a tragedy. Sims recently has been receiving many threatening letters. The latest one, of such character as to warrant police investigation, is as follows: "MR. SIMS:—You are doomed to destruction for your virtuous(?) efforts to take away the liberty of the people of the city. You are going to be killed, and if your prohibition bill should pass, the Capitol with everybody in it will be blown up. Red Hand, Black Flag Society. P. S.—Your days are numbered." THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN A REACTION AGAINST REFORM One of those curious instances of reaction against reform occurred in the recent municipal election in Kansas City, in which Mayor Beardsley, an admirable and efficient executive, was defeated for re-election by a plurality of sixteen hundred in a total vote of forty-four thousand. Two years ago Mr. Beardsley was elected by about the same plurality. A man of high character, for many years president of the Young Men's Christian Association, and a leading lawyer of the city, he had served six years in the council and had become an expert in municipal affairs. His administration was efficient and progressive. He established a tenement commission and a municipal art commission, obtained the enactment of strict pure food ordinances and enforced them rigorously, and took a leading part in securing from the legislature authority for the city to regulate its public service corporations. At the time of his defeat he was engaged in a vigorous fight to secure from the council an effective public utilities commission to investigate the public serve corporations. That became an important issue in the campaign. For though the opposition party—nominally the Democratic—had declared in its platform for a utilities commission, its ticket had the vigorous support of the street railway company and the allied corporate interests, and it was widely felt that a ticket elected with such support could not deal aggressively with the questions likely to arise. Among these, it was believed, would be a renewal of an application for a twelve year franchise extension by the street railway company, first made in 1906. At that time the company had asked for an extension with five-cent fares, with practically no return to the city—an extension that undoubtedly could have been capitalized for several million dollars. When the grant was finally refused, the president of the company had remarked to the city counselor that the company would have nine more councils to get the extension from before the expiration of its present franchise. The Democratic candidate was pledged to grant no extension without a referendum vote, but there was much apprehension on the subject among those familiar with the resourcefulness of public service corporations. The opposition of the street railway company, with the votes it controlled, was only one factor, however, in Mr. Beardsley's defeat. By his strict enforcement of the pure food ordinances he had aroused powerful antagonisms. He had incurred the opposition of the liquor interests by his refusal to permit the sale of beer in the public amusement parks. The judge of the criminal court of Kansas City had recently inaugurated a strict policy of enforcing the Sunday laws. He had closed several of the theaters on Sundays, as well as the grocery stores and the cigar stands. While Mayor Beardsley had nothing to do with this policy, he was identified with it in the popular mind, and so was opposed by the people, who thought that "reform was going too far." The Emporia Gazette comments on the results of the recent election as follows: "The line-up between the people and the public service corporations is as clear in Kansas as ever it was in any municipality in America. The fact that the people of Kansas City were humbugged and fooled and deluded and thrown off the real issue does not indicate that the people are dishonest, but it does prove that the greedy public service corporations are still active in American politics, and that every device of cunning and trickery will be used to fool the people. The Kansas City Star made a brave, clean, honest, manly fight for the people."—The Outlook for May. 5 A Seattle or a Northwestern Fair ? The action of the Seattle chamber of commerce in formally censuring a contractor on the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific fair buildings for giving out a piece of work to an Everett factory will not win many friends for Seattle and her exposition among her sister cities of the state. The trade-at-home idea within reasonable limits is a laudable one, but it would seem that as state funds are to be expended largely in the construction of the fair buildings and the people of the state are expected to spend their money generously in Seattle both during the fair and at all other times, a formal boycott on the industries of other parts of the state in connection with the construction work of the exposition does not indicate a fair spirit. It seems particularly unkind toward Everett, whose people buy annually over two million dollars' worth of merchandise from Seattle merchants. If it were not for the mill work executed in outside towns during the past few years the building progress of Seattle would have fallen far short of its present state of accomplishment. The Seattle mills alone could not possibly have turned the work out. The "Northwestern Industrial Association," whose name is signed to the boycott on Everett's mills, would seem to be a case or misnomer, or else its members consider that Seattle comprises the whole Northwest. Whatever the "Seattle Spirit" is, it manifestly is not one of reciprocity. By their course in this matter the Seattle people give notice to the cities of the state and Northwest that while the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition is supposed to be a Northwestern display, to the expense of which the entire Northwest will contribute, it is really a Seattle fair in the interests of Seattle. With a federal appropriation right now hanging in the balance, this hoggish action is likely to invite a fatal blow to the fair. To be sure Seattle men are assuming the responsibility of making the fair a success, but a state appropriation is the basis upon which they are working, an appropriation to which every taxpayer in the state has contributed. To insure success, further appropriations, by national and state government and by the counties of this state are necessary. That means that they must have the good will of all the people of the Evergreen state back of them. They most certainly lose it, when they emphatically insist that the state's money shall go to none other but Seattle men - Everett Herald. Norman Hapgood, the journalist and essayist, was discussing American newspapers. "It is not enough that our newspapers tell the truth," he said. "Truth telling in itself is not particularly wise nor praiseworthy. Indeed it is some times the reverse." Thus a young man called on a young lady one spring morning very early. He had his big automobile along, he wanted to give the young lady a spin through the country. A little girl, the young lady's niece answered the bell. "Is your auntie in?" said the young man. "Yes, sir," said the little girl "That's good. Where is she?" he went on. "She's upstairs, in her nighty looking over the baulastrade," said the little girl. Call up Main 305 for Legal Work.
