Seattle Republican

Olympia City Library THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN "We believe that no safer, saner, more necessary proposition was ever put to the people of Seattle than this proposed issuance of general fund bonds. It is a point of honor that should be upheld and an obligation that every citizen should unhesitatingly assume." (Extract from the speech of City Engineer R. H. Thomson to the Saturday Luncheon Club. That the credit of the city of Seattle is involved in the fate of the general bond issue on which the tax-payers of Seattle are to vote on December 29, is the statement of City Engineer R. H. Thomson and the members of the city council. In the bond issue is included $458,000 to cover the deficit in the regrade districts caused by the action of the supreme court in invalidating assessments to that amount. The credit of Seattle is involved because these assessments were levied to provide money to pay local improvement bond issues to pay contractors for their work on the Jackson street, Denny hill and Fourth avenue regrades and, if the amount of invalidated assessments is not made up in some way, the city will be forced to default on local improvement bonds to the amount of the deficit remaining when all legal assessments have been collected. Under our present system of local improvements, which is the only practicable one, to repudiate any part of any issue of local improvement bonds would be to destroy the credit of all such securities and make future improvements impossible or much more costly, until credit was re-established. Under the present system, contractors doing work for the city are not paid in cash but in local improvement bonds, as it would cause great loss and delay in work if the contractors were obliged to wait on the collection of the assessments levied for their money. The contractors dispose of these bonds to banks and bond buyers and get the money to carry the work through. The bond buyers depend on the collection of the assessments levied to get their money, the bonds being paid in installments running through a period of ten years at 6 per cent. As long as there is no question that all public improvement bonds will be met by the city when due, they will find a ready sale and the improvements on which Seattle's future depends will go on, but when a question arises as to the value of any bonds, bond buyers will either refuse altogether to buy Seattle improvement bonds or will buy them only at a great discount. That question has arisen in regard to the local improvement bonds to pay for the regrade work and the city council has given the people an opportunity to settle the question by a vote on December 29. Should the people vote against the general fund bonds to provide for the deficiency in the regrade assessments to meet the local improvement bonds, then bond buyers through the country will consider that the people of Seattle are willing to repudiate securities for which the honor of the city is pledged and would either refuse absolutely to buy any more improvement bonds or would buy them only at a great discount. If bond buyers refuse to buy Seattle improvement bonds, local improvements will necessarily cease and the city be retarded ten years in its growth while credit is being re-established. If bond buyers take the bonds at a large discount, the contractors bidding on local improvements must add the amount of the discount on the bonds to the amount of their bids and so the cost of local improvements to the tax payer will be greatly increased. The increased cost of local improvements during the time the city's credit is being re-established would amount to much more than the general fund bonds asked to make up the deficiency. The city council is not responsible for the action of the supreme court but it is responsible for the financial credit of the city and all efforts of the council to maintain that credit should be supported by the people. Judge George Turner, one of the leading constitutional lawyers of the country, declares that Governor-elect Cosgrove will have to return to the state to legally qualify for the governorship. Theodore Burton, of Ohio, is not to be a member of President Taft's cabinet, so say the latest reports from Washington City, which means that Burton will scrap with Charley Taft for the United States senatorship to succeed Joseph Benson Foraker. Hon. John L. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson will leave Seattle next Monday for a two months visit in Sacramento, SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, DECEMBER, 25, 1908 California, where their daughter, Mrs. Helen Chapin, resides. Mr. Graft has been operating in Lisbon all the same United States city council, and as a result the "strong box" is seven million dollars shy. "Henry Ewing's boy," we know, is not the only boy in Seattle, for we have two, but it's no fault of the Argus and the Times that the public does not think that he is. Unless the stolen robe be returned it would seem that William Pitt Trimble's chances of being crowned king is a forlorn hope. Oregon may send a Democrat to the United States senate, despite the fact that the legislature is almost unanimously Republican; but a loophole is being sought with fair prospects of being found. [Name] JUDGE THOMAS BURKE, Who May Have U. S. Senatorial Ambitions. To have to buy bottles of beer to throw at a passing street car and then have to pay $20 for throwing the booze was boozing a bit more than that drunken galoot had bargained for. Show me the person that would not sooner stand on a street car that is homeward bound than to stand on a street corner and see one or two cars go by but unable to board them because all of the seats are taken. Congress adjourned for the holidays without sending a challenge to President Roosevelt for a pistol duel, which is interpreted that neither the president nor the members of congress will indulge in any "high balls" during the Christmas festivities. VALUE OF WASHINGTON MINERAL OUTPUT FOR 1907. Many people are inclined to belittle the mineral resources of the State of Washington, but, nevertheless, the mining industry in this state is steadily increasing in importance each year and has already attained a big place in the list of wealth-producing enterprises. For the year 1907 the mineral output of the State of Washington, according to statistics compiled by the U. S. Geological Survey, was of a value of $11,617,706. The following table shows the diversity of the state's mineral resources and the value of the products: Clay products ..... $ 951,934 Coal ..... 7,679,801 Copper ..... 24,453 Gold ..... 262,300 Lead ..... 29,786 Lime ..... 238,568 Mineral waters ..... 10,820 Sand and gravel ..... 179,800 Silver ..... 55,400 Stone ..... 920,254 Tungsten ..... 32,500 Other products ..... 262,090 Total ..... $11,617,706 It may be a surprise to many, but it is a fact that Idaho's mineral output in 1907 was of greater value than that of Alaska, the valuation of the former's output being $21,300,612 and that of Alaska $20,200,552. Oregon's mineral output for 1907 was valued at $2,638,587. Volume XV, Number 24. H. R. CAYTON, Publisher. THE SPEAKERSHIP. The followers of J. N. Slayden are jubilant over the prospects of their candidate for speaker. Mr. Slayden has made a quiet, dignified and truthful campaign for this honor; he has made no wild promises as to committeeships; neither has he made any entangling alliance with any faction or crowd. He has made no promises to the Anti-Saloon League; neither has he held out any inducements to the Royal Arch. Mr. Slayden very properly considers that all questions coming up to the Legislature should be handled by that body without the interference of a speaker, and he certainly does not intend to drag these questions into the speakership fight. Again, Mr. Slayden appears to be the best fitted man for the place. He is a business man, being the president of one of the largest manufacturing concerns in the West. The finished product of Mr. Slayden's factory (the Northwestern Wooden Ware Company) finds a ready market in Denver, Omaha, Kansas City and all points between Tacoma and the Missouri river. A business man is certainly more fitted to preside over a body of business men than one who has had no practical business training. The fact that all of the older members favor Mr. Slayden speaks volumes in his favor, and the fact that King county could not swipe all the offices from him is helping Slayden a lot. It is generally believed that Meigs has promised King county the chief clerkship of the House. This is considered the most important place in the entire House. Lorin Grinstead was assistant clerk at the last session, while Meigs was chief clerk. It is generally supposed that Meigs has promised this place to his old assistant, but Grinstead is to have a fight, as Will Lysons too is out for the same job. As this is a speaker's appointment, it is reasonably safe to say that Slayden will name his own chief clerk, and in that event we would tout Lysons as a favorite, providing that King county is to have this fat billet. The question being asked by all the old members is, if King county is to get all the places, where do the little counties come in, sometimes referred to as the cow counties. If Meigs has promised King county eleven chairmanships, which includes practically all the important ones, such as appropriations, judiciary, public morals, educational, fisheries, etc.—if these have been promised by Meigs—where do the other or smaller counties come The Seattle Republican wishes you and each of you a very Merry Christmas, and it does so not as a matter of form, but truly so. Of all the holidays of the year none is so pleasant as Christmas. This is not only true among Christians, but even true of the atheist. Every home should struggle to at least take on a cheerful glow Christmas Day, and to that end we again wish you a very merry Christmas, and in due time a happy New Year will be added. in? In addition to this King county has a candidate for chief clerk in the Senate, the sergeant-at-arms and a host of candidates for minor jobs. Lieutenant Governor Hay has practically promised (or it is so reported) the appropriation and educational chairmanships to King county senators. Has Seattle gone mad with her strength? Does she intend to attempt to dominate Washington, as Multnomah county has Oregon? It is time to call a halt on this avaricious spirit of King by electing Slayden speaker. It will be done. Mark this prophecy! The fact that Cosgrove will not qualify in the immediate future is bound to injure the turkey market. The fellows who were to smother the succulent jobs in the event of Cosgrove's ascendancy, will not eat turkey for fear that something will happen to upset their plans. The Mead followers will also fight shy of the high-priced fowls at this yuletide, for fear that the same ax that severs the neck of the turkey may be wielded against them. Tom Morris, the popular sheriff of Pierce county, is responsible for the story that George Gregg, the capable deputy labor commissioner, has ordered suckling pig at his house to take the place of turkey that has decorated his Christmas table for the past few years. This may have been told in a jest, but it is only a straw that indicates in which direction the wind is wafting. It's the uncertainty of the whole thing that makes the present office-holder equally as nervous as the office-seeker. If Cosgrove should die today the turkey market would jump 30 points.—The (Tacoma) Forum. Tinkering with the tariff goes steadily on, but the tinkerers are finding it rather difficult to make it fit the widely different sections of this country. THE TRUE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT FROM A SUFFRAGIST'S POINT OF VIEW. At this season of the year we hear the greeting, ‘‘Merry Christ- mas,”’ iterated and reitera.ed wherever we go. We are so self- ishly happy in our own little plans and surprises that we are apt to forget those people to whom Christmas brings no tidings of “Peace on Earth, Good Will To. ward Man.’’ Yes, we are apt to forget the countless thousands who, afier a long preliminary of extra work which this season al- ways brings, seek their beds on Christmas day to allow the over- taxed bodies and nerves to recover from the dreadful strain. For instanee, we will take the shop girl. Do you think that Christmas is very ‘‘merry’? for her who, for two weeks before, stands baek of the counter of a big de- ‘par.ment store, from eight in the morning until ten at night? Just think of it! Fourteen hours in that nerve-racking noise and con- fusion, waiting on customers, who are not always so thoughtful and kind as they should be, and for compensation to receive at the end of the week a few dollars! No, we know that Christmas cannot be merry for her, for one must have a certain amount of physical strength even to be merry. With Charity. How are we to help these girls? As one woman thoughtlessly said when the shop girls’ wrongs were mentioned to her, “If I had enough money I’d give every shop girl in the city a dollar for Christ- mas.’’ Now this woman perhaps means well, but is this true char- ity? To be honest with ourselves, isn’t it really that we like to feel that we are a great benefactor and figuratively pat ourselves on the back that we have kept the sea- son in true Christmas spirit? For will that dollar clothe or nourish that girl for 365 days or until the next Christmas opens our hearts and pocketbooks again? No, it is like the old-fashioned doctor who applies a plaster to ease the pain instead of getting at the cause of it. Yes, help them. But not with what we generally think of as charity, but with the true charity, and that is, ‘Help them to help themselves.’’ Let them live with- out losing their self-respect in be- coming a charity. As the little factory girl, leader of the mill workers, cried out when their con. dition was spoken of at the char. ity conference in New York, ‘We don’t want charity, we want jus. tice!” So I say to you now ir regard to the shop girls. Place the ballot in their hands and let them legislate for themselves, for no class can be legislated for by another without it being to its dis. advantage, The ballot placed in the hands of woman would be the greatest Christmas gift, not alone for wo- man, but for man. The working woman’s position in the economic world is, at the present time, a detriment to the working man’s, She, just like the Chinese, is lowering the wage scale of man. And how is she doing this? Belonging to a dis- franchised class she must work long hours for whatever the em- ployer is pleased to give her. Her her union carries no votes. And so long as she remains Sica chised so long will man find it hard to compete with her in the sabor world. Many labor unions realize this and have indorsed womana suf- ras: At the annual convention of the California State Federa.ion of Labor held at San Jose last Gates, a young woman delegate [from the Wage Hearner’s Equal ‘Sufirage League said, ‘We just ‘came here because we feel ou unions have gone as far as they can to help the working woman ‘and because we need the ballot. |So I ask you to remember us when ‘the time comes for you to vote on equal suffrage.’’ This simple, outspoken plea from this girl asking for justice and equal opportunity for all, touched the kindly hearts of those ‘men, who know what it is to strive ae a living, and the equal suf- frage resolution was carried | unanimously. _ This will in time be the attitude of all unions on the equal suffrage question, for surely no man wishes to deprive his mother, sister, wife or daughter of that which is justly and inherently hers. Not only will he help others but in extending the hand of comradeship he will help himself. )—REPUBLICAN As the father and mother are essential in the home, so are they in the government. The mother’s heart is needed to work for laws which will benefit unfortunate ones. Working together in true com- radeship, and feeling that in help- ing one we are helping all—this is the true Christmas spirit. A report comes from Portland, Oregon, ihat the steamer Tacoma, the second largest ferry-boat in the United States, will be taken off. its run permanently which is be- tween Kalama, Washington, and Globe, Oregon, and that the trains which have been conveyed across the Columbia river for the last 23 years on the Tacoma will henceforth cross the Columbia on the new Northern Paeifie bridge at Vancouver. Mr. Rocekefeller’s contention that the oil business is hazardous will be indorsed by some of those who have tried to compete with the Standard Oil Company.— Rochester Democrat and Chroni- ele.

IS AN AUTOMIBILE A "DANGEROUS INSTRUMENT?" It is a rule of law well settled by authority that where a master permits his servant to use for his personal gratification or profit an instrument inherently dangerous, the master will be liable for the injuries negligently effected by the servant with such instrument. Is an automobile a "dangerous instrument" within the rule just stated as will entail a liability on the owner of an automobile for injuries negligently inflicted by his chauffeur upon third persons while said chauffeur is in sole charge of the machine and using it for his own purposes with the consent of the owner. This was the issue in the recent case of Cunningham v. Castle, 111 N. Y. Supp. 1057, where the court reached the following conclusion: First the master would not be liable in such a case as the servant at the time was engaged upon his own and not his master's business, unless the automobile should be considered a "dangerous instrument"; second, that an automobile does not belong in the category of dangerous articles, the mere permission to use which will involve the owner in liability for the negligence of the licsee. On this latter point the court said: "For the purposes of this discussion it must be conceded that the chauffeur was not engaged in the master's business, but was on a private pleasure trip of his own and was using therein the master's automobile with the master's knowledge and consent. It is urged that the automobile was a dangerous instrumentality, and that having been intrusted to the chauffeur, the liability of the master still attached because of its dangerous character. The automobile is not necessarily a dangerous device. It is an ordinary vehicle of pleasure and business. It is more dangerous per se than a team of horses and a carriage, or a gun, or a sailboat, or a motor launch. There is no evidence that the chauffeur was not competent and qualified to run the machine. In fact, he was employed by the defendant for that very purpose. If a game keeper had borrowed his master's gun and had gone from the estate on a hunting expedition of his own and had negligently shot a man, would the master be responsible because he was using that instrumentality, which might be dangerous if carelessly used, the gun? I do not think that the question of the ignorance or consent of the master has any bearing whatever upon his liability. The fact that the servant has used the horses or the automobile without his consent has probative force upon the proposition as to whether or not the servant was engaged in the master's business and was acting within the scope of his employment. The question is whether he was or not. If without the knowledge his master he took the car from the garage to a machine shop to have it fixed and an accident occurred the fact of the want of knowledge on the master's part would not affect the liability, because the act would be within the scope of the servant's employment and in the prosecution of the master's business. If the chauffeur were granted a two-weeks' vacation and the master said to him: "I am going off on a trip and will not need the machine; you may take it and use it for your own pleasure while I am gone,' I cannot think that he would be responsible for any negligence of the chauffeur during that period." The dissenting opinion by Justice Houghton in the principal case contended that the character of the use to which the automobile might be put by a chauffeur was sufficient to render the owner liable for injuries to third persons where such use of his machine was with his express consent. Justice Houghton argued as follows: "While a powerful automobile may not, strictly speaking, be deemed a dangerous instrument, it may become so if recklessly driven. They are so dangerous that the legislature has prescribed that their ownership must be registered, and the driver licensed, and that speed in different localities must be regulated. Motor Vehicle Law, Laws 1904, Chap. 538. The defendant recognized this when he instructed his servant to be careful on the trip which he permitted him to make. If a railroad official should loan a locomotive to one of the company's engineers for the purpose of hurriedly visiting a distant locality, it could hardly be said that the engineer alone would be liable for injuries inflicted upon third persons." The weight of authority is with the decision of the court in the principal case that an automobile is not a dangerous instrument within the rule of law now under consideration. McIntyre v. Orner, 166 Ind. 57, 76 N. E. 750, 4 L. R. A. (U. S.) 1130; Jones v. Hoge (Wash.), 92 Pac. 433; Lewis v. Amorous (Ga.), 59 S. E. 338. In the last case cited the court facetiously remarked: "It is not the ferocity of automobiles that is to be feared, but the ferocity of those who drive them. Until human agency intervenes, they are usually harmless. While by reason of the pay allotted to judges in this state, few, if any, of them have ever owned one of these machines, yet some of them have occasionally ridden in them, thereby acquiring some knowledge of them; and we have, therefore, found out that there are times when these machines not only lack ferocity, but assume such an indisposition to go that it taxes the limits of human ingenuity to make them move at all. They are not to be classed with bad dogs, vicious bulls, evil-disposed mules and the like." NORTHWEST BRIEFS.

Woodward was nominated in the white primary for the office of Mayor in the city of Atlanta. The white primary arose out of the demoralizing conditions of twenty years ago, when two factions competed for the Negro vote. Mr. Woodward had been Mayor of the city twice before, and, though identified with one of the special interests of the city, had made a fairly good executive. He had, however, disgraced the city more than once by public drunkenness, and he was held partly responsible, in public opinion, for the Atlanta riot, which might have been checked in its earlier stages by prompter action on his part. He was also recognized by the labor unions as their special representative, and his influence with them, with his promises for better behavior in future, secured him this third nomination in the white primary. Not long after his nomination he was found in a state of intoxication in the red light district of the city, and the full details of the affair were published by one of the Atlanta papers. The publication aroused the city to action, and, after full consultation by representative men of all classes, Mr. Robert F. Maddox, a prominent young banker of Atlanta, a man of high ideals and clean life, was nominated by a mass-meeting of citizens. Mr. Woodward at first withdrew from the race, but later reconsidered his withdrawal, and a fast and furious campaign was waged in the few days preceding the election.

The report of the superintendent of Mount Rainier National Park shows that during the past summer there were 2,826 visitors who viewed the many points of interest and beauty in that vicinity. The superintendent recommends that new roads and trails be opened and that no unreasonable restrictions be placed upon the use of automobiles within the limits of the park. The order received at the Coeur d'Alene land office from Secretary Garfield to the effect that all entries made under the timber and stone laws after December 1st will be considered by the department as null and void is causing a great deal of consternation among the settlers in the Northwestern states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington.

In the election, December 2, Mr. Maddox received a majority of 3,149, carrying every ward of the city except two. One of the significant incidents of the election was the alignment of the Negro voters with the cause of decency. The Atlanta Journal, in commenting on the election, says: "The Negro voters of Atlanta are entitled to the appreciation of the public for the high sense of citizenship they exhibited yesterday in supporting Mr. Maddox and the cause of good morals. It is an evidence of the esteem in which the best element of our population hold the duties of citizenship, and a growing regard for higher civic and domestic ideals." As is well known, the great mass of the Negro vote had been practically disfranchised in Georgia even before the adoption of the Suffrage Amendment, which does not go into effect before January 1. One result of this disenfranchisement has been the elimination of the more ignorant and venal voters among the Negroes themselves, and the opportunity of the better element to cast such a vote as was recorded in the Atlanta election. It may very well happen that the Negro voters who can comply with the terms of the Suffrage Amendment will hold the balance of power in local elections where they can win the respect and friendship of the better class of white citizens by siding with them on moral issues. these valuable land from the government for the small sum of $2.50 per acre as formerly, buyers will from now on have to pay something near the real market value of the lands. The report of the special committee appointed by the commercial bodies of Aberdeen, Hoquiam and Montesano announces that after a conference with President Elliot of the company that the Grays Harbor cities will be restored as terminal points and that the tariff schedules will not be increased.

Among the many fine building planned for the city of Seattle by the Metropolitan Building Company is the Cobb building which the company proposes to erect on the northwest corner of Fourth avenue and University street and as the offices of the company believe in the growing tendency of the times toward specialization of a particular business in buildings they propose to reserve this building exclusively for the use of the medical profession, dentists, doctors, etc. W.

Forty-six years ago Abraham Lincoln, then president of the United States of America, immortalized himself by giving to the world the Emancipation Proclamation, which instrument struck the shackles from four million slaves and thus paved the way whereby they could become citizens of this great republic, the peer of the most favored in all this land of the free and home of the brave. We do not agree with the pessimist, who is of the opinion that in issuing the Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln built better than he had planned or that the immortal Lincoln simply plunged into the dark without having any idea what he would bring forth, but that Lincoln foresaw that the Negro would sooner or later become an acceptable citizen of the United States and rank as the equal of any man. If he did not then what did he mean when he said: "I will make it so that you will not be able to distinguish a black man from a white man only by the color of his face." While that particular theory has not been fully accomplished yet it is rapidly reaching that state and the Negro of today believes that he can now see in the distant future the realization of the prediction of Mr. Lincoln. So hopeful is he of the final results in this struggle of his for a higher civilization, on the road to which he was started out by Mr. Lincoln, that he each year endears himself more closely to the memory of the sainted Lincoln by holding commemorative exercises of the issuing of the Proclamation January 1st, 1863.

The one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln occurs February 12. Many socie- ties, schools, colleges and states are already planning to make the day an eventful one, Lincoln needs no celebration to perpetuate his fame. The chief good will result in the in- culeation of patriotism in the younger generation by the reeall- ing of the needs of one of the world’s greatest men. Patriotism cannot be exalted too high. In strife of sectionalism with diversi- fied interest and aims the people of this great “nation are wont to forget that there are national ideas paramount to local demands. Par- tisan strife may make a certain elass forget that a contention car- ried to extremes is to touch the verge of treason. The nation needs to recall the valor and patriotism of her great men to bring anew the glow and fire of freedom which has INVITATION Lo the Pubuc: You are requested to be present at the auditorium of the Young Men’s Christian Association of Seattle, Friday evening, January 1st, 1909, at 8 o’clock, to witness the anniversary exercises of the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation by the immortal Abraham Lincoln, Year of Our Lord One Thou- sand Bight Hundred and Sixty-Three, which exercises will be held under the auspices of the Sunday Forum.

What is believed to be a new story of President Lincoln is told by ex-Vice President Adlai B. Stevenson of Illinois, in the Wom- an’s World (October). He says: Several months before President Lincoln issued the great proclama- tion of emancipation whieh gave freedom to the whole race of Ne- gro slaves in America, my friend Senator Henderson of Missouri, THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN came to the White House one day and found Mr. Lincoln in a mood of deepest depression. Finally the great president said to his caller and friend that the most constant and aeute pressure was being brought upon him by the leaders of the radical element of his party to free the slaves. “Sumner, Stevens and Wilson simply haunt me,’’ declared Mr. Lineoln, ‘with their importunities for a proclamation of emancipa- tion, Wherever I go, and which- ever way T turn they are on my trail, And still, in my heart, I have the deep conviction that the hour has not yet eome.’” dust as he said this, he walked to the window, looking out upon ennsyivania avenue, and stood there in silence, his tall figure tilt- ed against the light of the window pane, every line of it and of his gracious face expressive of unut- terable sadness. Suddenly his lips began to twitch into a smile, and his somber eyes lighted with a twinkle of some:hing like mirth. “The only schooling I ever had, ‘Henderson,”? he remarked, ‘‘was in a log schoolhouse when reading books and grammars were un- known. All our reading was done from the Scriptures and we stood up in a long line and read in turn from the Bible. Our lesson one day was the story of the faithful Israelites who were thrown into the fiery furnace and delivered by the hand of the Lord without so much as the smell of fire upon their garments. It fell to one little fel- low to read the verse in which oe- curred for the first time in the chapter the names of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-ne-go. Little Bud stumbled on Shadrach, floun- dered on Meshach, and went all to pieces on Abed-ne-go. Instantly the hand of the master dealt him a cuff on the side of ‘the head and left him wailing, and blubbering as the next boy in the line took up the reading. But, before the girl at the end of the line had done veading he had subsided into snif- fles, and finally became quiet. His blunder and disgrace were forgot- ten by the others of the class until his ‘urn was approaching to read again, Then, like a thunder clap out of a clear sky, he set up a wail which even alarmed the master, vho, with rether musual gentle- ness, inquired : “* “What’s the matter now?" “Pointing with a shaking finger later would fall to him to read 5 pi ee tin at the verse which a few moments Lud managed to quaver out the answer: ““‘Look there, master—there comes them same dawn three fel- lers again.’ ” Then, his whole face lighted with such a smile as only Lincoln vould give, and he beckoned Sen- ator Henderson to his side, silently pointing his long bony finger to three men who were at that mo- ment crossing Pennsylvania ave- nue toward the door of the White House. They were Sumner, Wil- son and Thaddeus Stevens. It is a coincidence worthy of more than a passing notice that a daughter of the first United States senator of the emancipated slaves, Hon. Hiram R. Revels, who was born the very day he was elected to the senate, should be a partici- pant on the program that will be rendered in this city January Ist next. Another coincident of a similar character might be men- tioned in that a son of Congress- man Long of Georgia, who was born the same time, should also be a resident of Seattle. Other Ne- groes have been elected to Con- avess besides those represented on he accompanying eut, but at the oresent time there is not a single person 2 member of Congress who adinits that he has African blood in his veins, and it is barely pos- sible that it will be a good many years before there is.

IS AN AUTOMIBILE A "DANGEROUS INSTRUMENT?" (Central Law Journal.) It is a rule of law well settled by authority that where a master permits his servant to use for his personal gratification or profit an instrument inherently dangerous, the master will be liable for the injuries negligently effected by the servant with such instrument. Is an automobile a "dangerous instrument" within the rule just stated as will entail a liability on the owner of an automobile for injuries negligently inflicted by his chauffeur upon third persons while said chauffeur is in sole charge of the machine and using it for his own purposes with the consent of the owner. This was the issue in the recent case of Cunningham v. Castle, 111 N. Y. Supp. 1057, where the court reached the following conclusion: First the master would not be liable in such a case as the servant at the time was engaged upon his own and not his master's business, unless the automobile should be considered a "dangerous instrument"; second, that an automobile does not belong in the category of dangerous articles, the mere permission to use which will involve the owner in liability for the negligence of the licensee. On this latter point the court said: "For the purposes of this discussion it must be conceded that the chauffeur was not engaged in the master's business, but was on a private pleasure trip of his own and was using therein the master's automobile with the master's knowledge and consent. It is urged that the automobile was a dangerous instrumentality, and that having been intrusted to the chauffeur, the liability of the master still attached because of its dangerous character. The automobile is not necessarily a dangerous device. It is an ordinary vehicle of pleasure and business. It is more dangerous per se than a team of horses and a carriage, or a gun, or a sailboat, or a motor launch. There is no evidence that the chauffeur was not competent and qualified to run the machine. In fact, he was employed by the defendant for that very purpose. If a game keeper had borrowed his master's gun and had gone from the estate on a hunting expedition of his own and had negligently shot a man, would the master be responsible because he was using that instrumentality, which might be dangerous if carelessly used, the gun? I do not think that the question of the ignorance or consent of the master has any bearing whatever upon his liability. The fact that the servant has used the horses or the automobile without his consent has probative force upon the proposition as to whether or not the servant was engaged in the master's business and was acting within the scope of his employment. The question is whether he was or not. If without the knowledge, his master he took the car from the garage to a machine shop to have it fixed and an accident occurred the fact of the want of knowledge on the master's part would not affect the liability, because the act would be within the scope of the servant's employment and in the prosecution of the master's business. If the chauffeur were granted a two-weeks' vacation and the master said to him: "I am going off on a trip and will not need the machine; you may take it and use it for your own pleasure while I am gone,' I cannot think that he would be responsible for any negligence of the chauffeur during that period." The dissenting opinion by Justice Houghton in the principal case contended that the character of the use to which the automobile might be put by a chauffeur was sufficient to render the owner liable for injuries to third persons where such use of his machine was with his express consent. Justice Houghton argued as follows: "While a powerful automobile may not, strictly speaking, be deemed a dangerous instrument, it may become so if recklessly driven. They are so dangerous that the legislature has prescribed that their ownership must be registered, and the driver licensed, and that speed in different localities must be regulated. Motor Vehicle Law, Laws 1904, Chap. 538. The defendant recognized this when he instructed his servant to be careful on the trip which he permitted him to make. If a railroad official should loan a locomotive to one of the company's engineers for the purpose of hurriedly visiting a distant locality, it could hardly be said that the engineer alone would be liable for injuries inflicted upon third persons." The weight of authority is with the decision of the court in the principal case that an automobile is not a dangerous instrument within the rule of law now under consideration. McIntyre v. Orner, 166 Ind. 57, 76 N. E. 750, 4 L. R. A. (U. S.) 1130; Jones v. Hoge (Wash.), 92 Pac. 433; Lewis v. Amorous (Ga.), 59 S. E. 338. In the last case cited the court facetiously remarked: "It is not the ferocity of automobiles that is to be feared, but the ferocity of those who drive them. Until human agency intervenes, they are usually harmless. While by reason of the pay allotted to judges in this state, few, if any, of them have ever owned one of these machines, yet some of them have occasionally ridden in them, thereby acquiring some knowledge of them; and we have, therefore, found out that there are times when these machines not only lack ferocity, but assume such an indisposition to go that it taxes the limits of human ingenuity to make them move at all. They are not to be classed with bad dogs, vicious bulls, evil-disposed mules and the like." NORTHWEST BRIEFS.

Woodward was nominated in the white primary for the office of Mayor in the city of Atlanta. The white primary arose out of the demoralizing conditions of twenty years ago, when two factions competed for the Negro vote. Mr. Woodward had been Mayor of the city twice before, and, though identified with one of the special interests of the city, had made a fairly good executive. He had, however, disgraced the city more than once by public drunkenness, and he was held partly responsible, in public opinion, for the Atlanta riot, which might have been checked in its earlier stages by prompter action on his part. He was also recognized by the labor unions as their special representative, and his influence with them, with his promises for better behavior in future, secured him this third nomination in the white primary. Not long after his nomination he was found in a state of intoxication in the red light district of the city, and the full details of the affair were published by one of the Atlanta papers. The publication aroused the city to action, and, after full consultation by representative men of all classes, Mr. Robert F. Maddox, a prominent young banker of Atlanta, a man of high ideals and clean life, was nominated by a mass-meeting of citizens. Mr. Woodward at first withdrew from the race, but later reconsidered his withdrawal, and a fast and furious campaign was waged in the few days preceding the election.

About 2,452 Indians will receive allotments during the present and coming fiscal years. One of the longest spans of telephone wires in the west has recently been completed. The line extends across the Pend Oreille river from Newport to the new mill site of the Fidelity Lumber Company. Three wires are used, each 1877 feet in length. The wires are of a special quality of Roebling steel instead of aluminum as was originally planned to use. The report of the superintendent of Mount Rainier National Park shows that during the past summer there were 2,826 visitors who viewed the many points of interest and beauty in that vicinity. The superintendent recommends that new roads and trails be opened and that no unreasonable restrictions be placed upon the use of automobiles within the limits of the park. The order received at the Coeur d'Alene land office from Secretary Garfield to the effect that all entries made under the timber and stone laws after December 1st will be considered by the department as null and void is causing a great deal of consternation among the settlers in the Northwestern states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Instead of being able to purchase Guardian INSURANCE OF SEATTLE was more or less identified with one of the public utility corporations, but the single issue between the two candidates was an issue of decency. In the election, December 2, Mr. Maddox received a majority of 3,149, carrying every ward of the city except two. One of the significant incidents of the election was the alignment of the Negro voters with the cause of decency. The Atlanta Journal, in commenting on the election, says: "The Negro voters of Atlanta are entitled to the appreciation of the public for the high sense of citizenship they exhibited yesterday in supporting Mr. Maddox and the cause of good morals. It is an evidence of the esteem in which the best element of our population hold the duties of citizenship, and a growing regard for higher civic and domestic ideals." As is well known, the great mass of the Negro vote had been practically disfranchised in Georgia even before the adoption of the Suffrage Amendment, which does not go into effect before January 1. One result of this disenfranchisement has been the elimination of the more ignorant and venal voters among the Negroes themselves, and the opportunity of the better element to cast such a vote as was recorded in the Atlanta election. It may very well happen that the Negro voters who can comply with the terms of the Suffrage Amendment will hold the balance of power in local elections where they can win the respect and friendship of the better class of white citizens by siding with them on moral issues. these valuable land from the government for the small sum of $2.50 per acre as formerly, buyers will from now on have to pay something near the real market value of the lands.' --- The report of the special committee appointed by the commercial bodies of Aberdeen, Hoquiam and Montesano announces that after a conference with President Elliot of the company that the Grays Harbor cities will be restored as terminal points and that the tariff schedules will not be increased. This is considered a great victory for the men who have been fighting the proposed increase. Among the many fine building planned for the city of Seattle by the Metropolitan Building Company is the Cobb building which the company proposes to erect on the northwest corner of Fourth avenue and University street and as the offices of the company believe in the growing tendency of the times toward specialization of a particular business in buildings they propose to reserve this building exclusively for the use of the medical profession, dentists, doctors, etc. W. A. Halteman, executive commissioner of the A.-Y.-P.

Forty-six years ago Abraham Lincoln, then president of the United States of America, immortalized himself by giving to the world the Emancipation Proclamation, which instrument struck the shackles from four million slaves and thus paved the way whereby they could become citizens of this great republic, the peer of the most favored in all this land of the free and home of the brave. We do not agree with the pessimist, who is of the opinion that in issuing the Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln built better than he had planned or that the immortal Lincoln simply plunged into the dark without having any idea what he would bring forth, but that Lincoln foresaw that the Negro would sooner or later become an acceptable citizen of the United States and rank as the equal of any man. If he did not then what did he mean when he said: "I will make it so that you will not be able to distinguish a black man from a white man only by the color of his face." While that particular theory has not been fully accomplished yet it is rapidly reaching that state and the Negro of today believes that he can now see in the distant future the realization of the prediction of Mr. Lincoln. So hopeful is he of the final results in this struggle of his for a higher civilization, on the road to which he was started out by Mr. Lincoln, that he each year endears himself more closely to the memory of the sainted Lincoln by holding commemorative exercises of the issuing of the Proclamation January 1st, 1863.
