Seattle Republican

State Library THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN It should be exceedingly gratifying to the Republican party that their presidential candidate not only received a larger popular vote than did his Republican Victory Democratic opponent, but that he Was Overwhelming. actually received a clear-cut majority over all other candidates. Roose- velt received a larger popular vote than did his Democratic opponent, but that was largely due to the fact that every Northern state voted for Roosevelt almost to the complete exclusion of Parker; while on the other hand, Parker received practically every vote in the South. Democrats have been wont to boast of their presidential candidate, that though defeated in the electoral college he received the largest popular vote, and they therefore favored the election of the president by popular vote, but we suspect they will not play that tune so often in the future. The vote for the various candidates was as follows: Taft, Republican, 7,637,676. Bryan, 6,393,182. Debs, Socialist, 448,471. Chafin, Prohibitionist, 241,255. Watson, Populist, 33,871. Gillhaus, Socialist-Labor, 15,421. Total for all candidates, 14,852,239. Either the population has rapidly increased within the past four years, or many of the stay-homers got out and voted, as there were 1,341,531 more votes cast at the last election than four years ago. There are still millions of votes in the South that should turn out and vote, but they either do not have the ambition to do so or a great many are afraid to do so lest they offend the Democratic leaders of that section. During the past week several meetings have been held and many interviews have appeared in the public press relative to the improvement of the Improving the Duwamish River by straightening and Duwamish River. dredging it from deep water on Elliott Pay to head of navigation on the Dui- wamish River. This is an improvement that should have been made long ago. Some years ago we understand an interest was taken by those in part interested, looking to an appropriation for survey and improvement, but those in authority then as well as now were inclined to oppose, if said improvement interfered with the construction of the Lake Washington canal. From recent developments it now appears that the people of that section of the city and county are going to make a determined effort in this behalf, the Lake Washington canal to the contrary notwithstanding. Of course for years we have heard and been told that the government was to build the Lake Washington canal, and to this end the people of King County levied an assessment upon their taxable property, purchasing the right of way, paying certain mill owners damages, donating the right of way so purchased to the United States government. A fierce controversy has been raging for the past ten days between President Theodore Roosevelt and the editors of some two or more leading President Roosevelt vs. Newspapers. the purchase of the Panama Canal from the French government." Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World editorially declared "there was," and sticks to his text, while the President brands him as a malicious prevaricator, and should be punished for criminal libel. Pulitzer, however, has substantiated nothing and to that extent he is unfair to the general public. If he has any facts as to crooked work in the purchase of the canal he should publish them. Saying just enough to keep the public in a teeter, in the belief that he has the real stuff up his sleeve, which he will use if forced into court, is nothing short of blackmail, not only on the President of the United States, but likewise the entire reading public. To be plain, it looks just like a yellow journal fake with no greater aim than to sell papers. It was Pulitzer's paper that published the fake interview about the emperor of Germany and was forced to cable an apology. Does the City Council of Seattle want the voters to understand that, it believes the civil service laws of this city a failure? If not, then why in heaven's name does it take the bull by the horns and override its rules and regulations whenever it sees fit so to do? In a recent examination three of those who took the exami- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1908. nation pointblankly failed and, according to the civil service regulations, had no right to be employed to work for the city thereafter, but not so: the positions they were occupying before taking the examination were given new names and each of them continued in the employ of the city. The above is especially applicable to one Bert Graves, who is being groomed by the city hall ring to succeed Harry Carroll at the next city election. An anticourt house wave swept over profanity hill last summer and as a result the political gang that has corrupted the county's affairs was not wholly swept out, but it was so badly crippled that it will be many moons before it will be again strong enough to run things with the high hand it has for the past eight years. If many more such cathops as the Bert Graves incident be pulled off at the city hall, the voters of the city will repeat what the voters of King county did, "turn the rascals out." Circulating a petition for the purpose of persuading Judge Milo A. Root to qualify as one of the supreme judges of this state, to which position Judge Root he has been elected for the ensuing six years, is or should be looked upon as being born of good intentions, but wholly uncalled for. Judge Root is either legally and ethically unworthy to qualify—or he is legally entitled to the office to which he has been elected. Judge Root has not been found guilty of any crime. No man has accused him of having committed any crime and until he has been charged and found guilty, who has the right to say he shall not qualify for any office to which he has been elected. His only offense seems to have been a bit of indiscretion of letter writing to one whom he believed a life-long friend, but who betrayed his confidence with the hope of hiding his own peculations. If such indiscretion as that charged against Judge Root be a crime then let him without sin cast the first stone. The signers of that petition, however, are not the only ones that are calling for Judge Root to qualify, but hundreds of the leading citizens of the state are writing to him to qualify as though naught had happened. Judge Root's greatest indiscretion, in the opinion of The Seattle Republican, was in ever having resigned at all. He was guilty of no wrong and he should have stood still and defied the whole world. Nothing short of bluffing bulldozers can be said of the Castro government of Venezuela, which is made up of treacherous snakes in the grass. Venezuelan Bluffers For the past five years that government, under the direction of Castro, has been defying both the govern- Getting Bluffed. ments of Europe and America by the committing of first one overt act after another until the diplomatic relations between every civilized power and itself have either been broken abruptly off or so badly disturbed as to be of no force or effect. Castro has threatened to go to war with all of them, but no sooner had the Dutch men-of-war besieged his ports and begun to destroy his miniature navy than a great hew and cry goes up and the populace begin to whine like whipped whelps. If the United States had done her duty she would have spanked Castro some months ago and forced the Venezuelan government to pay her just debts whether it pleased or displeased Castro. It's an international mistake for the United States to permit an European power to wage war on an American government, however just the provocation may be. In other words, for self protection the United States should settle all such disputes regardless of what the contending government may have to say on the subject. It's a source of exceeding regret from one end of the state to the other that, the Hon. Henry L. Strowbridge died in the very midst of collecting Halteman's Troubles the state's exhibit for the A.-Y.-P. Are Numerous. exposition, albeit a man of wide acquaintance—the Hon. W. A. Hat- tenman—has been named as his successor. Mr. Strowbridge had been working steadily on the exhibit for the past eighteen months and being a man of few words, kept the most of his plans within himself and for the most part they were buried with his remains. With but a few short months more allotted for the work, Mr. Hatteman will be expected to get the state's exhibit together and put it on the grounds, which, to say the least, is a gigantic undertaking. If the state puts a creditable exhibit in its building it is up to those with whom the late Mr. Strowbridge planned to divulge their plans and prepare to carry out the program just the same as if he were alive and executing the work. Washington would be almost forever and one day after disgraced if she does not make the best showing of any state, and it's up to each and every one of her citizens to lend a willing hand in accomplishing the work. Mr. Halteman needs your assistance to an even greater extent than did Mr. Strowbridge. CREEDS OF THE PRESIDENTS. Some one has been stirred by the recent controversy over Mr. Taft's religious belief to tabulate the Presidents according to their religious or church affiliations. The St. Louis Christian Advocate prints the list, and from it may be seen, as that journal observes, that the creeds of the Presidents "have been almost as varied as their politics and personalities." We read: "Washington was an Episcopalian, and one of his biographers says he was a communicant, while another declares that although he was a regular attendant on the services of that church, he was no more than an adherent and sympathizer. John Adams was a Unitarian, having been brought up in that faith and adhering to it all his life. Thomas Jefferson was repeatedly charged with being a free-thinker, some even said an atheist of the French school, but after his death his friends and family asserted that he was a believer in God and divine revelation, the immortality of the soul, and a future life, their statements being sustained by certain letters and documents found among his papers. Madison and Monroe were both members of the Episcopal Church, remaining in that connection all their lives. John Quiney Adams was a Unitarian and for most of his life was connected with the same congregation which bore on its rolls the name of his father. For the greater part of his life, General Jackson had no religious affiliation whatever, but in the evening of his days, and mainly through the influence of Mrs. Jackson, he attended the Presbyterian Church, and after her death became in fact as well as form a member. On his estate he built a Presbyterian church and spent much money in contributing to its support. "Martin Van Buren was not a member of any church, but was a regular attendant on the services of the Dutch Reformed Church near his home in Kinderhook, N. Y. William Henry Harrison was a communicant and for a time a vestryman in the Episcopal church. For a long time after his death his pew in Christ church, Cleveland, Ohio, bore the silver plate indicating its ownership. In his inaugural address, he made what he called 'a confession of faith,' testifying to his religious belief. Tyler, like Harrison, was an Episcopalian, and personally a very devout man. Polk was not a member of any religious denomination, though in deference to Mrs. Polk he generally attended the services of the Presbyterian church. During his last illness he was baptized by a Methodist clergyman, a friend and neighbor, and formally received as a member of the Methodist church. President Taylor was a regular attendant on the services of the Episcopal church, and although the testimony is somewhat conflicting, it seems probable that he was a member. Millard Fillmore was a Unitarian, born and raised in a family belonging to that denomination. President Pierce was a Trinitarian Congregationalist, and his religion is described as 'more of the head than of the heart.' Buchanan was a very acceptable member of the Presbyterian church. "President Lincoln, although described by his biographers as a man of deep religious convictions, was not a member of any denomination, although he often attended the Presbyterian church. Andrew Johnson was not a church member, although during his residence in Tennessee he generally attended the Methodist church. General Grant never connected himself with any church; though when he attended services at all, it was generally those of the Methodists. It is said that shortly before his death he became a member. Hayes was for many years a member of the Methodist church. Garfield was the only President who ever officiated as a preacher and pastor. After leaving the pulpit for the platform he remained a member of the Disciples of Christ. President Arthur was prominently connected with one of the leading Episcopal churches of New York City. President Cleveland was a regular attendant and, in his later years, it is said, a member, of the Presbyterian church. President Harrison was a Presbyterian and for many years an elder of a church in Indianapolis. President McKinley was a Methodist. President Roosevelt is a member of the Dutch Reformed church. President-elect Taft is a Unitarian." Money may be scarce, but from the amount of shopping that is going on in Seattle for Christmas it's not near so scarce as it would seem to be. The value of the produce of the farmers of the United States for the year 1908 amounts to $7,778,000,000, the largest in the history of the country. Volume XV, Number 24. H. R. CAYTON, Publisher.

EDY COMPANY Of twenty-five people will open an indefinite season at the Third Ave- nue Theatre next Sunday after- noon. The company comes here with a reputation of being one of the cleverest stock musical com- edies. that has toured the coun- try in the past five years. It is not a combination, but a stock mu- sical comedy company, capable of presenting a number of musical comedies at popular prices, in equally as good a manner as road companies do at high prices. They will demonstrate this in the open- ing play, ‘‘A Lost Baby,’’ said to be a sparkling musical farce, full of comedy, catchy music and a chorus of very pretty girls—we have seen them. “WHY GIRLS LEAVE HOME,” The play at the Seattle Theatre next week, is promised to be one of exceptional merit. The story is purely a wholesome and con- sistent one; it is that of a willful girl being guided into question- able pleasures by a man of the world; a hot-headed older broth- er, a sweetheart, a sister and a mother who do not understand the girl, take part and complicate the situation by misunderstandings. ‘There is a great deal of emotional work, as well was many exciting scenes; while the comedy inter- spersed throughout the action is of the side-splitting source. The play is mounted on an elaborate scale, and an admirable cast has been selected to interpret the sev- eral characters. ‘‘Why Girls Leave Home” is a problem play, but it is a problem that should be studied by every one who has daughters, sisters, or other kin- dred of the weaker sex, as well as all parents. The play is an ob- ject lesson that could not be du- plicated. i ha i | Smoking Jackets, Pee. —§ << uy i ae Bath Robes (NARS Var So ea Seana ea And Novelties is ————— ¢ La fl is R in men’s ‘ ft a) fh at at home ii i | 7 i apparel. erp TaglaeN This is an Exclusive Men’s ne Gin “Small Wear Store——the Store ie [§36188) where you buy the right kind a ei es ete of Holiday Gifts for that man. eo JSS ClTy. 200, Hatters and Men’s Fornishers. 1881 Second Avenue.

The recent disagreement be- tween Butterworth & Sons and Collins, Bros. was evidently a very grave affair. Now that the Commercial Club of this city has elected a new board of directors we wonder if the members thereof will cut out Boos. There is no doubt but that ‘drink is a mocker, but what trou- bles us is, why 80 many alleged in- telligent persons will permit drink to mock them. Improving the Duwamish river is agitating the public mind quite considerably just now, but do not fet that disturb you, dear reader, as it will not last long. That the law is no respector of persons is evident from the fact that former United States Senator John L. Wilson has been drawn on the jury for the January term. It was a political pessimist that was overheard to declare that graft had become ‘so common in the state of Washington that it had even taken Root in the su- preme court. Ss It’s next to a erime if you have the money to shop early and do not do so. It’s never too late to do good, and if you have not already shopped for Christmas do so as soon as you read this. Did the Root-Gordon investiga- fion committee strike a Hill that they had not figured on, which ae- counts for it shutting up, like a elam. Do not get alarmed, John- ny, that Hill will not cave in. Uncle Sam’s skeleton in’ the -closet, better known as the Brownsville affair, has been dragged out again and evidently fo. do service in the senatorial con- test now raging in the state of Ohio. Shi os ee Seattle’s Commercial Club may have been made to Trimble like an aspen leaf in its late election, but the Revelle sound broke the spell and the hosts stood still and watched for the Salvation of the viee president. Old Daddy Clayson, of the Pa- triarch, seems to be a peculiar brand of the genus homo (4), neither sensible nor foolish. He is undoubtedly the most cantaker- ous pest that has ever been per- mitted to associate with human beings. Sea When Wells and Chase began the publishing of the Star it was a rather hazardous undertaking, but they made a go of it and pe other day Mr. Wells sold out his interest in the business ‘and real- ized a sufficient amount of money to live in perfect ease the balance of his days, and for a few months at least he proposes to take life easy. Mr, Wells shows his good sense in quitting the struggle when he gets the money. “Shall We Abandon Christmas Trees?’’ is a headline. If we wish to be long lived, yes, but if shorter years are desired rather than lessen our happiness in wit- nessing the flaming Christmas trees, then unqualifiedly, no. Choose ye between the two. In Seattle and on Puget Sound Emma Goldman has seen better days, and no one seems to realize it to a greater extent than Emma herself and especially when she languishes in a prison cell for making inflammatory speeches. Of course Capt. Haines was in- sane when he killed William E. Annis, and what man with a hand- some wife whom he idolizes would not be when he is aware of the fact that a more fastidious fop has stolen her love from him by hav- ing deceived the woman. ‘There seems to be no doubt but that the police are keeping the lower end of the city clear of lewd and vicious characters, but every other end of the city is paying very dearly for the lower end be- ing kept clear, and a little of that goes a long ways. It looks as though we are no longer to be troubled with the question of the succession to the presidency in case of mishap to President-elect Taft. From all appearances we would have an able ‘‘chief”’ in the person of Mrs. Wm. Howard Taft. From the results of the state convention of the Young Men’s Christian Temperance Association for the ensuing year it will be a rather Lippy proposition, but the institution that is not lippy will do a very little toward making a success in its undertaking. There is a great deal of doubt existing in regard to the sanity of that Russian millionaire, who re- cently set fire to his enormous bank roll and then called his rela- tives to the bed side to thank him for having delivered them from the terrible curse of wealth. * Seattle is not being run exactly on the principle of a ‘‘wide open town”? of the type as that run by the once famous Tom Humes, but you are liable to be tapped by one of the women looking for you in any of the resident districts of the city, which comes pretty near- ly being a wide open town. Causing to be published speck- led-face editorials in the Daily Times belittling the state’s direct primary law may look quite ‘‘ili- gant’’ to Kurnel Blethonius, but it appears quite ridiculous to the av- erage citizen—no more so, howev- er, than everything else that ap- pears in that wind jamming sheet.

The ease was twice taken to the supreme court of the state om \ <p. yf ww f INSURANCE CO. OF SEATTLE THE SRATTLE REPUBLICAN and the cost when settlement was finally decided upon amounted to $3,600. In our opinion two big- ger fools never lived. We recom- mend this ease to Dr. Holeome and his former wife for perusal.

If so, let us hope that, the worst has been seen and that the good work will begin again even more vigorously than before. If Representative Jones’ bill to pension those telegraphers, who served in the ¢ivil war and who subsequently received honor cer- tificates of service from the war department goes through he will have spent his time in a better and more practical cause than the man who introduced the bill to confer the honor certificates. e If the delinquent subseribers of The Seattle Republican would re- mit the price of the past year’s subseription the management of the paper would appreciate it just as much as if they had sent him an expensive Christmas present.

Do It Now. If one can read between the lines the press dispatches would seem to indicate that Miss Ethel Roosevelt will not only make her debut in Washington society while her illustrious father is still in the White House, but it is more than probable that she, like her sister Alice, will take unto herself a fad, which she wil] at times con- descend to call ‘‘my husband,” before leaving the White House. Councilman Frank P.

Gomorrah of it. Being appealed to by a fallen woman in the resident portions of the city goes against the grain of some of the more fastidious gen- tlemen of the city, who, however, had no hesitancy of appealing to those self-same women when they were eribbed vp in some place where their wives and sweethearts could not see them appeal to them.

The members of the State Bar Association are to tender Judge Hiram E. Hadley a banquet before he retires from the supreme bench, which he will do in January next. It can be well said of Judge Hadley that he has enjoyed the complete confidence of the entire bar of the state ever since he has been on the bench. His twelve years as one of the members of the supreme court of the State of Washington have been years of usefulness, and his work will live after him. He is considered a man of striking qualities, a man of splendid educational qualifications and a man that seems peculiarly fitted for the honors of a judge. In retiring from the bench Judge Hadley will form a new partnership with his former partner, former State Senator C. W. Dorr, and the new firm will open offices in Seattle. Both men are excellent lawyers, and will start in with a splendid practice, the most of which Mr. Dorr has held together during the twelve years Judge Hadley has been on the bench. --- It is intimated that Judge Mark A. Fullerton, of the supreme court, is of the opinion that Governor Albert E. Mead cannot legally hold the office of governor after the 11th of January, and that if Governor-elect Cosgrove is unable to take up the duties of the office it will fall on the shoulders of Lieutenant Governor-elect M. E. Hay. When doctors disagree, who can decide? If the legal complications that are about to arise on account of Mr. Cosgrove's illness are so complicated that the members of the supreme court are divided on the point, then it seems almost foolhardy for the laymen to discuss the subject only in an abstract way. However, it is the opinion of the editor of The Seattle Republican that Governor Mead can legally hold the office of governor of the state until his successor is qualified, and that if the man who has been elected to qualify fails to do so at the proper time he will act as governor until he does do so. We further believe that Mr. Cosgrove can qualify and then assume the duties of the office any time during the four years to which he was elected to serve, and if he does not qualify Gov. Mead will hold the office for four years instead of two or until the next general election. * * * George F. Vandevere, prosecuting attorney-elect of King county, takes the opposite view of the legal entanglements that will arise by George F. Russell failing to qualify for county treasurer, and declares that, he will on taking charge of the office advise the county commissioners that a vacancy has occurred in the office of county treasurer, and it's up to them to elect a successor to Matt H. Gormley, the present incumbent. Mr. Mackintosh, the present prosecuting attorney, in whose office Mr. Vandevere is chief deputy, holds just the opposite and has given the commissioners an opinion to the effect that no vacancy will occur and that the failure of Mr. Russell to qualify will mean that Mr. Gormley will hold on until a successor has been elected and qualified. The latter seems ORANGE JACOB good law to us, but we must confess to have never acted either as a supreme, superior court or justice police judge at any time, in short, we have never been admitted to the bar for the purpose of practicing law, hence our opinion will not weigh very much when those interested begin to unravel the tangled web. 粤 方 京 Few men and attorneys in either the state of Washington or Oregon are better known than the Hon. Orange Jacobs, Judge Jacobs, as he is known, is a pioneer to the Northwest, and has been in the public eye one way or another for the past fifty years. In territorial days Orange Jacobs was appointed associate territorial justice for the years of 1869 to 1870. He was elected as delegate to Congress in 1876, serving one term. Between that time and 1896 he was considered one of the leading attorneys of the Northwest, and was one of the leading men of the country. In 1896 he was elected superior court judge of King county, and served it for four years. Judge Jacobs is now a well-preserved octogenarian and has retired from the active practice of the law, though each day he is to be found in the office of his son, giving advice when called upon. For the past few years he has been preparing a book of his life, and that has just been completed and the same published, a copy of which is now on our desk. "The Memoirs of Orange Jacobs" is a well-written book of 234 pages, and not only deals extensively with the life of the author, but likewise with the general country. The book is already proving a good seller, and the first edition has almost been half sold out. "Your honor," said the lawyer. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN ORANGE JACOBS JUDGE ORANGE JACOBS. "I ask the dismissal of my client on the ground that the warrant fails to state that he hit Bill Jones with malicious intent." "This court," replied the country justice, "ain't a graduate of none of your technical schools. I don't care what he hit Bill with. The p'int is, did he hit him? Perceeed." ```markdown ``` According to a ruling of Judge George E. Morris no one of the six superior court judges of King county is eligible to hear the mandamus proceedings brought against the county commissioners in connection with the assessments for the Lake Washington canal, all of them owning property which will be affected by the rulings of the court, and so an outside judge will be called in to hear the case. EQUAL SUFFRAGE A great deal of comment has been caused by Roosevelt's letter to Dr. Lyman Abbott in which he says, "I believe in woman suffrage, but I do not regard it as a very important matter." He then goes on to say that he does not believe it would bring about any of the evil effects which are feared by some, but also he thinks that no great change for good would come from it. In other words, he believes things would go on in outhe the same old way. Thousands of men and women all over the United States have gone into print in answer to the President's assertion that "no special improvement could be seen in those states where women vote. Surely it is very effective to see how large a number of these letters are from Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho and Utah—the states where woman suffrage is no longer a theory, but a fact. ```markdown ``` The workers for this cause have always been able to secure from persons living in these states a vast amount of favorable expert testimony, and no one has yet been able to bring forward one honorable, trustworthy person from any of them, who will speak against it. Judge Ben Lindsey, known all over the world for his glorious work in the Juvenile courts of Colorado, has always been deeply and earnestly in favor of woman suffrage. In speaking of the work being done by his court, he says, "The Juvenile Court of Denver has always had back of it the support of the women, especially the mothers of Denver, and whatever the success it may be credited with is, largely, if not entirely, due to their efforts. During the last campaign Judge Lindsey, because during all the time he has held office he has refused to "knuckle under" to the political leaders, was refused a place on both Republican and Democratic ballots. Not at all daunted, he ran on an independent ticket. Everyone predicted an overwhelming defeat for Lindsey, but the women, always ready to fight for right and justice, came to the rescue. A big campaign was begun. Election day at every precinct in the city a little fellow was stationed. There he stood on a soap box, rooting with all his might and showing the people how to scratch their ballot so as to elect Ben Lindsey. It was probably the first time in the small boy's life that mother patted him on the back for playing hookey from school, and the women well as one paper put it. "The women would have turned out to vote for Lindsey if it had rained rats and mice." 5 The result was they brought in the faithful judge with more votes in his favor than both the opposing candidates had together. Keeping a good man in office is one of the things women will do when they are given the ballot and which they now do where they already have it. Professor Harry E. Kelly, formerly of Iowa State University, and now a prominent lawyer of Denver, in speaking of the good effects of the woman's vote, says that such important considerations as public education, sanitation, libraries, child labor, the care of the old and insane, humane laws for children and animals, and such subjects as more intimately affect home life and conduce to the prosperity of the family, would be lost sight of by the men in the scramble of partisan warfare for office, were it not for the fact that the women will not see them obscured by anything. Mrs. Sarah Platt Decker, of Denver, president of the General Federation of Woman's Clubs, says, "There is a splendid womanly independence in being a voting citizen, and there is a much more chivalrous devotion and respect on the part of the men, who look upon their sisters not as playthings nor property, but as equals and fellow citizens." Testimonies without number could be given, of which these are a fair example, and which all go to prove that woman suffrage has improved conditions where it obtains. When Roosevelt says that woman's work is in the home, that old time argument, he is giving the best of reasons why women should vote. Surely, if there wasn't one other reason than that the rearing and educating of children is so entirely in the hands of women, that of itself is sufficient reason. In Roosevelt's own words, "A mother must be something besides a cross between head nurse and housekeeper." A woman with no knowledge or interest in outside or public affairs, cannot raise a family of broad-minded and public spirited citizens. The only way this interest can be aroused in them is by giving them some stimulus. To ask women to study politics without giving them a vote, is as unreasonable as it would be to ask men to take long law courses merely that they might when they become fathers be able to teach it to their sons.
