Seattle Republican

State Library SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, Friday, June 19, 1908 VOL. XV. NO. 4 POLITICAL POT PIE Thomas P. Fay, the well known real estate man, has decided to shy his castor into the race for county commissioner from the third commissioner's district. He says: "I mean to run as a business man's candidate and if I am nominated and elected I propose to see to it that the county affairs are conducted along business lines. Among the many things I propose to stand for is a sinking fund for the county that all outstanding bonds and interest may be taken care of when they fall due. Then again I will fight for the building of good roads throughout the county, a thing we have not got at this time. Good roads will help the city just as much as it will the county and I therefore think the city should become as deeply interested in the building of good roads as the country, and in this contention I think that I will be heartily sustained by the business men of Seattle. In standing for a business like administration of the affairs of the county, I mean that the county must get value received for every dollar it expends and that the road funds will not be used for political purposes as it is alleged they have been in the past. A square deal for both the laborer and the county will be my contention in every transaction in which the county will be interested." * * * The first to announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination for superintendent of schools is Edward H. Stafford, one of the principals of the Seattle schools. Mr. Stafford had a long school record before coming to this county and he has stood high in school work since he has been here, having acted as superintendent of schools at Ballard and subsequently teaching in the Seattle schools where he stands very high as an educator. * * * . Representative Will E. Humphries is home from Washington City and has already begun to look after his political fences. Mr. Humphrey is most fortunately situated in a political way as he will hardly have any opposition for the nomination for the position he now holds until after the state has been redistricted, which will be some four or six years in the future. King county cannot afford to support two candidates for that nomination as in doing so she might lose the place and she therefore, for the same reason, will oppose any outside candidate for the nomination, which leaves the field practically clear for Humphrey until after the state is redistricted, as King county controls the district. The same thing applies to Cushman if he desires to hold on to the place he now has, but rumor has it that Frank will surely get into the senatorial race to succeed Piles, and the rumor seems well founded, in which case it is barely possible that he will be Jones' associate in the senate. ** Who the devil is Edward Von Huwaldt, who has announced himself as a candidate for the Republican nomination for sheriff of King county subject to the coming primaries? The Pie-maker has been dubbing around in the political circles of this county for a good many years, but he has heard of Von Huwaldt for the first time. This the Pie-maker suspects is a huge political joke and means Jim Agnew instead of Von Huwaldt. Will the various aspirants for judicial honors at the hands of the bar, which contest will be pulled off tomorrow (Saturday), abide by the decision of the election returns is the all-absorbing question among the attorneys today. If they do not, then it will be a long, long time before a similar contest is ever undertaken. On the other hand if the nineteen candidates take their medicine and let the results of Saturday settle the matter as to who will be the six judges for King county for the ensuing year, a precedent will be set that it will take years and years to overthrow. There are something like 1,200 or more lawyers in King county and only some 700 have registered, not to exceed half of the regular practicing attorneys in King county, and a majority of those not registered are opposed to the proceedings of tomorrow, which means that, they will hardly submit to the results of the bar contest, but some of them will announce themselves for the nomination for the regular primary election and make a fight wholly independent of the lawyers and especially those who agreed to abide by the decision of the bar election. --- The feeling to clean out the court house ring is growing stronger every day and finding many substantial backers among the heavy tax payers of the county. The men at the court house in many instances have been there entirely too long and for the good of the county some new blood should be infused into the machinery of the law. It looks bad for the same set of men to just change about from one office to the other at the court house and grow old nursing a public teat. It looks as if such men feel their inability to go out in the world and make a living, and if the county is to support such charges, why not send them to either the asylum or the county poor farm where they will not be such expensive charges? The affairs of the county are said to be in a most wretched condition, it requiring twice as much to run the county as is necessary and consuming all and even more than is taken in by excessive taxation, thereby slowly but surely running the county head over heels in debt. The county needs business men at the head of affairs so that things could run kind of even along. * * * Speaking about this joke the Pie-maker is reminded that one Jim Agnew has announced himself for the Republican nomination for sheriff. Of course Jim has been county auditor as long as he can be under the law and he feels that he would actually starve to death if he were not sucking some kind of a public teat, and he therefore strikes out for the biggest place in the county in order to make sure that he will not starve to death for the next four years. In case he fails to land this nomination you will see him strike out at once for some kind of a federal or state appointment in order to keep the wolf from the door. To work the dear people seems to be a weakness of Jim Agnew and he does that to a queen's taste. Gov. Mead's campaign which was opened at Bellingham a few days ago, is receiving attention of the press all over the state and the Pie-maker after watching the comment pro and con on the part of the various publications is inclined to think the Governor has all the best of the comment. That he made a telling speech no 1 PRICE TEN CENTS one who read it has reasons to doubt and that it is having good effect may be seen from the comments of the press and even from what may be heard from different persons who are discussing the speech. Governor Meade it will be remembered was nominated four years ago by the railroads as opposed to the McBride policies, but when he went into the campaign he was not long in discovering that, the people wanted, the things that McBride had advocated, and so he promised the people on the stump that, if the legislature passed such measures, and if he were elected, he would not vetoe them. He not only did not vetoe them, but finding that they were necessary for the good of the state he used his power and influence as governor of the state to push them along and succeeded beyond expectation. The friends of Governor Mead are now jubliant for they believe that he will not only beat all his opponents, but will get even more than the 40 per cent necessary for the nomination and be nominated to succeed himself by an overwhelming majority. They say further that, the very voters that supported McBride four years ago are supporting Meade now because he has carried out the policies of McBride, while McBride is now with the railroad folk and is opposed to the policies he represented four years ago. TEDDY THE TERRIBLE William Howard Taft—The present secretary of war, was at the supreme moment nominated by the Republicans in convention assembled at Chicago for president of the United States of America, thus ending one of the fiercest political struggles that has ever prevailed in presidential circles in the history of this "land of the free and home of the brave." While Taft, when he will have been elected president of the United States as he will surely be, may be president in fee simple, not even taking orders or suggestions from him in whose shoes he is so soon to stand, nevertheless there is no denying the fact that, he is a creature of President Theodore Roosevelt and his nomination is but another demonstration of the stronghold the president has upon the rank and file of the American people. The president has not only had his way in all matters of national legislation and government affairs in general for the past four years, but he has been able to dictate his successor, which, to all intent and purpose, means four more years of Teddy the Terrible. No president in the history of the country has had things as much his own way as has Mr. Roosevelt; no other president has had to handle such grave and momentous questions of state as he; and finally no other president's four year administration has been as free of mistakes as his, which explains his general popularity. We believe Mr. Taft will give to this country a conservative, sane and sound administration, and while he will to a more or less extent carry out the Roosevelt policies, yet he will likewise have a Taft policy of his own, and his sobriquet—Taft the Toiler, will be doubly more apparent for the ensuing four years than for the past four. While the whole country would be delighted beyond measure to return Roosevelt to the White House for four years more, yet Taft, will in our opinion, close the first four years of his presidency equally beloved as is Theodore Roosevelt himself. So here is for Taft and Teddy! PRESENT SITUATION IN INDIA DEAR EDITOR:— Reading an article written by one Indian, Mr. S. M. Mitter, commenting on Lord Cromer's views in the May issue of the 19th Century on oriental mind, and one by Mr. G. Mukerji in April's issue of the Overland Mail, discussing the immigration and educational question of Indians on the Pacific coast, I request you to publish these few lines in your valuable paper and oblige. I am very glad to see that our Indian young men are struggling hard to convince the liberty loving people of the United States the real position of the Indians in the mother land and on the Pacific Coast. I cannot help but admire the sacrifice of one of our Indian young men who has been forced to resign the post of sixty dollars, i. e., Rs 180 or so a month, for only undertaking in his own hands the hard task of managing a monthly leaflet, "Free Hindustan," and expressing his free opinion on the subject of "British rule in India and their policy, etc." This shows clearly that the national spirit among the Indians is awakening quickly and the time is coming very near to attract the sympathy of the freedom-loving nation-I mean the United States of America. The past Russo-Japanese war clearly explains the facts that if this nation had not have shown the heartfelt sympathy towards the right action of the Japanese, there would not have been victory in favor of the Japanese. In the constitution of the United States government, based on the universal principles of freedom and liberty, every one has the right to become its citizen, and so the natives of all other nations are being naturalized in the land of freedom. These are good signs no doubt for the harmonious development of the human races. Every one here has the equal right of speech and free expression of his thoughts and opinions in public, pulpit and press. But on the other hand what do we see in India? Manlike, Lord Cromer, student and keen observer of oriental mind of thirty-five years standing, feels that freedom of press in India, especially to Indian editors, is the cause of the present unrest in India. There in different parts of the country many young and old editors are being sent to prison, some for months and some for years, for rigorous imprisonment. And though in their whole lives they have never worked as manual laborers, now they are grinding flour with heavy, stone-hand-machines, and sending their heartfelt blessings to the British bureaucracy. Though Lord Cromer is right in saying that the doors of higher education should not be closed to the Indian mind, yet man-like Lord Curzon, the Auranzeb of the Mohamedan rule in India, has adopted the policy to stop higher education altogether, and THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN so the University Act has been passed in India to debar the Indian from the privilege of getting high education at home. After the unpleasant events of 1857, which was termed by our British friends as a Mutiny, as the Indians could not succeed in gaining their object to drive the British yoke away from their heavy laden necks, while the events of the same nature in France were considered a French revolution; and in the United States, war of independence, because they gained the desired object of their mind Arms Act was passed to cut the hands of the Indians, at the time of the risk of their lives even and thus not allow them to protect themselves from danger. Now we see the consequences of all this. On the surface of the earth there is no nation so poverty stricken, whose average daily income is less than two cents a day, whose daily meal is one-consisting of some leaves of shrubs and grass and a cup of God-sent rain, preserved in natural pools of water. Twenty-five million people died on account of starvation and plague during the last twenty-five years. Was death a welcome? Education is five per cent among one hundred and fifty millions of male population and one per cent among female. Throughout India, such a vast empire, there is not a single college for female education supported by the British goverment. Sixty-five per cent is taxation on land production, and no representation is allowed, on the part of the people. Under such a terrible condition, if people speak something publicly at home, they are considered seditious and hence sent to jail or deported from the country without any trial. And if they dare to come up in foreign lands, labor unions and Asiatic leagues stand against them. The doors of Australia and South Africa, Natal, are shut for them, and now they are being deported from British Columbia though these poor fellows are British subjects on paper. No work can be given to these poor fellows who have been so mercilessly taxed at home by the British autocracy and commercially robbed by B S. N. Co., of India, and C. P. R. Co., of B. C. in transportation. Foreign missions from the West are sending millions of dollars to convert heathens into Christians, but a few heathens on the Pacific Coast are out of work and no Christian heart is moved to help them. Some illiterate heathens coming in contact with the Christian laborers are going to adopt the evil habit of drinking, and one educated heathen wants to check it. Many obstacles and hinderances are put in his way by the educated Christian friends. Lord Cromer says India is a down trodden country enslaved with caste prejudices, as low caste Pharya is not allowed to see the high caste Brahmans. Of course it is true and it is a pity! But is not the British white face Heavenly born, more cruel and merciless not to even allow the high caste Brahman to see the Malechh British executive officer in the District? He says moreover in India congress committee there are high caste Brahmans. Of course it is not a fact. He is not aware of the fact that the congress does not claim to be a social organization but it is a political body representing political rights for the country for all sects, having no caste or creed, consisting of men of high abilities, qualifications and education. There are Parsees, men like Dada Bhai, Naoraji-Watchas, Brahmans of course. Messrs. Gokhale, Tilak, S. Boonerji, Mohamedens; Kashtrizyas - Rajpoots, Vaish, Aryas. Brahmans, Sikhs and all other communities of Hindu race or even Christians. There is no question of high or low castes, but it is just as it is in English Parliament, House of Commons, a mere matter of ability and qualification. The same law holds good in the United States House of Representatives and other western countries as well. We refer our readers to the article on "Asiatic Immigration on the Pacific Coast," by G. D. Kumar, published in the Daily Times, Victoria, B. C., and News Advertiser, Vancouver, B. C. They can then get a better idea of the situation, and we appeal to the nations to get moral support and sympathy for our national aspirations. BENCH AND BAR. (From the Central Law Journal) LIABILITIES FOR INJURIES The case of Cunningham v. The C. R. Pease House Furnishing Co., 69 Atl. Rep. 120, is interesting and based upon sound principles. In the principal case there was a common law count for negligence and a trial and verdict. The plaintiff's evidence tended to prove that the manufacturers of a stove blacking advertised in Nashua, stating that it was for sale by the defendants. The plaintiff's mother saw the advertisement, called at the defendants' store and asked the clerk if the blacking that they were advertising was intended for stoves or stove-pipes. He replied that, "it was for stoves" and that, "the warmer the stove the better it works." She replied, "won't that be fine, I can black my stove without letting my fire go out." Relying on the representation that the blacking could be safely used on a hot stove, the mother bought a can. Two days later the plaintiff, a member of the mother's family, used some of the blacking on a hot stove, and an explosion resulted, cuasing the injuries complained of. The plaintiff and her mother Yours truly, G. D. KUMAR. Friday, June 19, 1908 were blamelessly ignorant of the fact that the blacking contained naptha. The court likened the defendant's position to that of "one who puts destructive *** materials in situations where they are likely to produce mischief." 50 N. H. 420, 432, 9 Am. Rep. 267. Such a person must respond in damages to those who are injured because of his acts, if either he knew or ought to have known that the materials were dangerous and the person injured might come in contact with them." Hobbs v. Company, 74 N. H. 116; Scott v. Shepard, 3 Wills, 403; Cooley. Torts. 78. "Although the defendants probably did not have the plaintiff in mind when they sold the blacking to the mother, they knew the mother had bought it to use on her stove and that other members of the family were likely to use it. Consequently the plaintiff can recover if the mother could have recovered had she been injured instead of the plaintiff. The defendants will not be prejudiced by the assumption that the plaintiff cannot recover if the mother could not and by the omission to consider whether the situation might not be such that a recovery might be had against both the mother and the defendants. Ricker v. Freeman, 50 N. H. 439, 9 Am. Rep. 267. The case, is therefore considered as though it were an action by the mother," "The court says the common law imposes upon the seller the duty to refrain from falsely representing material facts for the purpose of misleading the buyer. The seller may praise the good qualities of his wares as much as he pleases and he is not bound to disclose their defects to the purchaser, even if he knows of them and is aware that the buyer believes that he is purchasing sound goods. But if for the purpose of inducing the prospective buyer to change his position, the seller sees fit to make any representation, either expressed or implied, in respect to facts which are material to the subject matter of the sale. he must tell the truth." 74 N, H. 57, and cases cited in the opinion. "The defendants admit their liability for an intentionally false statement of fact, but contend that they are not liable for a false statement honestly believed to be true, though negligently made," citing Derrry v. Peek' App. Cases, 337; Angus v. Clifford 1891. Ch. 449, 470. But the court shows that such is not the law in New Hampshire and cites Shackett v. Bickford, supra, a number of other cases to the effect that "a person who acts upon a false representation, made for the purpose of inducing him to change his position, may recover the damages he sustains in an action of negligence when he ought to have known it to be so," and concludes that, "If the defendant's false representation that it was safe to use the blacking on the hot stove 4 SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Published Every Friday at 307 Epler Block.

When an outsider looks up to the court house with the thought that, "I would like to taste public office for a season," he sees Sickles a foot long hanging therefrom due to the icy stare he gets by the gang.

Col. Frederick D. Grant may not have Southern devils as did his father to fight to a farewell finish, but he is nevertheless reducing militaryism to as fine a system as did his illustrious father. A life time sucking the public teat is a loong, long time, but that is just what a great many of the present employes of the King county court have done, and we believe a change would be good for the taxpayers. ```markdown ``` THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN To admonish you to read THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is a waste of words for you are doing that right now, but we would like to solicit you to pay for THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN after you have finished reading it.

"Real estate is quiet," came from a Seattle enthusiast one day this week as he mopped the prespiration from his brow, just as though he had ever heard of real estate making a noise, but the fool had to say something to be seen. High rent for the hundred and one small stores on Third avenue is responsible to a great extent for so many "For Rent" signs being seen. Its the rent man more than any other kind of man in Seattle that is killing the town and he knows it. George E. Adams, who was sent to McNeils Island for stealing gold at the assay office in Seattle, proposes that although he is in a federal prison he is not to be forgotten so easily as the other fellow had thought for, and he therefore periodically breaks into print. Of course a great many of the citizens of this community wrote letters of commendation to the Times for advocating murder, but all of them wished their names withheld from publication thereby showing that they were as dastardly criminals as the Colonel himself. We fear the Yakima Democrat is fooling itself in declaring that the Negroes of this country, owing to their opposition to Roosevelt will not vote for Taft, and if they are not successful in getting Foraker to run on a Lincoln Republican ticket, will openly vote for Bryan. There is no difference as far as the Negro is concerned between Bryan and Vardeman. The Republican National convention, which has been in session since last Tuesday, has been excitement from the very beginning. The southern contests were all settled in favor of Taft with the exceptoin of Louisiana, which was a compromise between the two factions. The proposition to cut down the number of delegates from the South was lost by an overwhelming vote. No retiring president in the history of the country received the ovation as did the mention of Theodore Roosevelt's name by the chairman of the convention, thus showing that he is near and dear to the majority of the folk of this country. The demonstration lasted forty-five miutes. Telephones had been arranged so that the president could listen to the proceedings of the convention without leaving the White House. ```markdown ``` Friday, June 19, 1908 Jack Stringer, who for the past eight years heen a deputy United States marshal in this district, has handed in his resignation to take effect July 1st. He takes this step that he may make the fight for the nomination for sheriff without a handicap. Now let the other fellows who thought that Jack was not a factor in the fight, set up and take notice. Jim Agnew who has twice been elected auditor of King county by the Republicans, and who is now seeking the nomination for sheriff, preferred to announce his candidacy in the Times (Democratic), prior to announcing it in the Post-Intelligencer (Republican), which simply means that Jim is a partisan only for what there is in it for Jim—a political hog. Mary Dougherty, a seventeen-year old girl of South Park, has been committed to the asylum and her ailment is said to be due to the brutal treatment of her own father and two other men, the former now being confined in the county jail, charged with the most heinous of crimes. We regret to say that none of the parties concerned are Negroes, because in so saying the idols of some folks are badly shattered. Not content with making a fool of himself over the jury releasing Chester Thompson, the editor of the Evening Swillbarrel (Times) has jumped from Tacoma to Kentucky, and is raging at the governor of that state like a mad maniac over the pardon of Caleb Powers and Jim Howard, two alleged accessories to the killing of Gover-Goebel. But why discuss the words and acts of a person, who is by far less responsible for what he says and does than Chester Thompson ever was. No Race of Men Incapable of Intellectual Development. By Jean Frost All condemnations of people and races in virtue of an innate superiority have in reality failed. Life has taught us to be more circumspect in our judgments. A savant who presumes to pronounce a verdict of eternal barbarism against any people deserves to be laughed at. Let us remember that in the time of the encyclopedists savants refused to the Russians the possibility of becoming civilized in the European manner. The following century was destined to give them the lie, for it gave to this people consigned to barbarbity thinkers and writers who are accounted among the guiding spirits of humanity. If the Russian nation shall arrive some day at enjoying that liberty whereby it may develop unimpeded its moral and intellectual faculties the cause of progress shall have counted a hundred million workers more. For ages the Negro races have been offered as proof positive that some nations are hopelessly separated from others in point of culture and capacity. But any one that has studied their development in the Southern States realizes that they are susceptible of rapidly absorbing the civilization now surrounding them. A few brief years ago Negroes were not considered capable of carrying on business transactions or holding property. Today thousands of Negro proprietors are conducting plantations of various sorts and own thousands of acres of land worth millions of dollars. In brief, it is only as the equality of men is recognized and their essential unity believed that progress can be accodnted for. Friday, June 19, 1908 ~ TALES OF THE TOWN THE SEATTLE REPUBICAN is in receipt of a letter from President Theodore Roose- velt bearing his thanksand congratulations for the splendid booklet recenily issued by the editor hereof, entitled Cayton’s Cay- ton’s Campaign Compendium. Even the president knows a good thing when he sees it. A similar letter from Secretary Taft has been received. Both are very busy men just now, but they are not too busy to overlook a courtesy. Will H. Thompson has given it out that he is of the opinion that he, accompanied by his son Chester, willleave for the South within a very few days and may cast his lot in that section. That Mr. Thompson is a most brilliant lawyer and will be a suc- cess wherever he pitches his tent, goes without saying. He would have been one of the leading men of this section had he used more diplomacy and tact, by cutting out, ‘‘I am from the South,’’ and everlast- ingly parading that before the public, which did not help hima bit, but on the other hand did him harm. The proposition on the part of the dairy- men in and about Seattle to have a bill passed by the next legislature appropriat- ing money out of the state funds to pay them for their diseased cows, whose milk they peddle to the public after the same has been badly watered, must be a joke that some good natured soul palmed off on the dairymen. The idea is preposterous and if the legislature should do such a fool- ish thing every mother’s son of them should be ridiclued from one end of the state to the other and the treasurer enjoin- ed from paying the money. A more ridic- ulous proposition was never before dis- cussed. “J. Edward got the chickens,’’ was quoted in a local weekly paper not long since and from which a very pretty story was told at the expense of J. E. Hawkins, the well known Afro-American attorney of Seattle. ‘I must admit,’’ said Haw- kins, that there is abit of truth in the story and the very thoughts of it makes me almost smile; for I am reminded by it that, its as much impossible for an Afro-Ameri- can to carry a sack with chickens on his shoulders through the streets of Seattle as it would be for a snowball to fly through Hades. I started a colored man witha sack of fine chickens to the owner, and it was after night fall when he started and he had not gotten more than three blocks from my house before a cop sent him to the station for stealingchickens. The man in charge telephoned me and I smoothed matters over and he was given the chickens and started out,again, but before he was three blocks from the police station he was again sent in and again released, having become acquainted. All told, he was ar- rested four times that night and finally an officer was sent with him, but by that time the chickens had all been smothered to death and the colored man, becoming dis- gusted, brought the sack of dead chickens back to my house and threw them on the porch where I found them the next morn- ing. I had some hesitancy about even try- ing the proposition myself, andso I bought other chickens at the market and had them .delivered.”’ Last Saturday there was held in this ‘city rather a remarkable meeting composed of the stockholders of the Alaska Central Railway Company, which road by the way THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN CS ARTE rR Li \ \ oN NY De iNineaee ar: a ‘ om ce Te eh ' Dig Cae a) Mi? ee oe i 7 iN Fs Hi Cees = : i 4 a Tae? bg a AONE A, aa pee as vont AAA A HN : ue " nae SE se iy ai Uo ea a : a oe a a a a i ae | a ee he cee | a oe re ae 8) | Hee ae etd i ihe ae canta ae 4 : car Tee x ee \\\l ie e i i es .

In the above meeting Mr. Bal- oor E laine charged President A. C.

The meeting was adjourned to June 25th, and to Chicago, at which time and place Bal- laine promises to make startling disclosures before the bondholders. $ Speaking about Ballaine, he is well known in this state among the old time politicians. At the time George Turner was elected to the United States senate, February 1897, he was reporting on the Tacoma Ledger at Olympia. He favored the Fusion ticket and did such effective work that he was made Turner’s private secretary after he, Turner, had been elect- ed. After spending a short time in Wash- ington City, he tired of the job and return- eq to the state, where he accepted a posi- tion on Gov. Reger’s military staff. He went to the Philipines with the Washing- ton boys, but returned before the fighting was all over. He became interested in Alaska and after many days hard work figured out the possibilities of building the Alaska Central Railway, and then, with Senator Turner as an adviser, set about to promote the scheme, in which he was em- inently successful. He is interested ina townsite in Alaska and it is reported that he has fair prospects of cleaning up a round million dollars, even if he never re- alizes anything out of his stock in the Alas- ka Central. Ballaine, like hundreds of other young men in the Puget Sound coun- try, stepped from poverty to financial prominence almost in a day. Call up Main 305, for Legal Work. Our prices are right.

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Next week the Seattle Theater will have Miss Emma Bunting and the Burgess-Bunting Company in "The Gambler." Among the plays of the west in the early days, this play, which was formerly called "The Golden Giant," still holds first place as the best and it will outlive any modern production of a western play, for the simple reason that it was written by a poet and a stage director who was unequaled at his time—Joaquin Miller and McKee Rankin. "The Gambler" breathes of a mountain atmosphere of a mining camp and deals with picturesque and interesting characters, who are living natural lives. To see Miss Bunting as "Bess Fairfax" is to see her at her best in a moodish character which gives her talent full scope.
