THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1909. his each and every word when he made his speeches before his fellow members. He has some eloquence in his voice, he sees a point, but he fails to tell it in such a manner that it carries conviction to anyone save himself. To listen to a running debate in the house of representatives such as the local option issue has repeatedly brought out in the present session one is surprised to discover that not a single man in the house on either side of the question has the fore his fellow voice, he sees a per that it carries Speech Making in in the House. Unless you heard him talk n Unless you knew to the contrary by actually having heard him talk under pressure you would never think that James Weir of King County could make Weir Can a speech, even if it were written and he Talk Well. had committed it verbatim et literatum, yourself, for when Weir gets his Scotch blood up he talks, and talks well. His voice is not only clear and distinct, but his articulation and grammatical construction are al-cost perfect. As strange as it may seem, he likewise possesses a vein of satire that he can use very effectively in debates. He has twice asked the attention of the members of the house to listen to him while he preached the word to them and each time he so far eclipsed all others that you sat dumb founded as he spun it out and you hardly wanted to believe your own eyes and ears. Weir makes no pretenses of being a speech maker or floor leader and is therefore not always on his feet disgusting his fellow members with his verbage. Beach Always Beats Himself. at even a country cock-fight, much less in the legislature in an oratorical contest. He, however, is full of fight and is not afraid to stand before the crowd and make his rambling remarks, which gives him more or less pretige as a house leader. but his articulation cost perfect. A possesses a vein in debates. He bers of the house word to them an In this connection Ole Hanson must not be overlooked for before Hanson came to the legislature he had gained the reputation of being a four flush off-hand talker. There is no denying the Gallery Player. fact that he does make a good political speech. On the rostrum he always talks on a subject on which he has thoroughly posted himself beforehand and he is not in a red-hot rough and tumble debate, hence he talks well. In the legislature it's a horse of another color. He is in a hand to hand battle and he is being constantly nipped by his colleagues, which seems to have the effect of rattling him or he becomes so enthused on his subjects, as he was on the race track bill, that he loses his equilibrium and slops all over. Hanson is charged with talking to the galleries and there may be a bit of truth in it, but when he does talk his voice is clear, clarion like and can be heard by every one in the house. He is by no means a leader on the floor of the house and yet we are inclined to think he is a rather clever vote getter. In his speeches he sometimes makes a point, but he seems unable to profit thereby. His logic is poor, but his oratory is good. Hanson needs some one with far more experience than he has had to act as coach for him and he might develop into a good strong public character. In reviewing the would-be speech makers of the house of representatives as they have impressed us from time to time during the present session it is not done with any evil intention, but in a vein of friendly criticism purely from our view point and if some of Legislature Wine and W representati impossible stituent was so he sees Sensible Talkers Not Leaders. Sensible Talkers Not Leaders. those who have been criticised would profit by the friendly tip they would make more useful members. Only those who have vied to be house leaders by butting into every discussion that arose whether they knew anything about it or not, and the hundred and one other members have not been noticed, many of whom have frequently made splendid short speeches since the session opened. On the whole, however, there are fewer men in the house that can put up a debate this session than ever before in the history of the legislature of the state and it is alleged that it is due to the fact that under the direct primary law candidates for the legislature could canvass by postal cards Representative Edge of Spokane, who has made himself believe that he is a leader on the floor of the house, has some of the qualities of a public speaker. He can stick to his text, which is more than the ordinary would-be floor leader can do. While he is more or those who have by tip they would who have vied to discussion that a it or not, and th not been noticed splendid short su Postal Card Candidates. instead of by eloquence under the old system, hence a man that could not repeat the alphabet of the English language so could be heard ten feet from him was just as apt to be elected a member of the legislature as the truly eloquent man. The postal card candidates usually wanted to go to legislature for a personal motive and every time he votes on a question it is done so as to further his "personal motive."

Mr. Democrat proceeds at once to ex-postulate on some kind of government reform. After you have been informed that Representative E. L.

IN THE TENTH LEGISLATURE. ability to make a genuine speech, that is such an one as rings with eloquence, oratory and logic. Dr. W. M. Beech of Mason county on the local option bill was the minority leader—that is leader of the "wets" and after listening to him make one effort at speech making, you ask yourself the question, Who or what gave the man the remotest idea that he could make himself understood Even worse than Dr. Beach is Frank Jackson of King county, who has handled the anti-saloon league's cause on the floor of the house. The "speaker" gave him unlimited opportunities on the floor, but Frank Jackson he was always devoid of facts and False Alarm. left the impression on his hearers that, if "I" were not in the legislature the state of Washington would go to the dimnation bow wows. Jackson is without voice, articulation or logic and is about as much fitted to be a legislative leader as is a whispering spirit. In a debate he loses his temper and indulges in personalities rather than facts and therefore has no influence on the floor of the house of representatives except among those who think only on the local option issues as he does. If there be a single man on the floor of the house of representatives that comes within a mile of making a speech it is T. J. Bell of Tacoma. He has the voice and likewise a smattering of eloquence, but his logic is far fetched and when he has finished his speech-making stunt, you wonder what was that rather pleasing commotion just passed. Mr. Bell, however, is not only a willing, but he is likewise a loud talker, which of course makes him quite popular with the gallery guards. If Billie Bishop of Jefferson did not get excited, and if not excited over enthused on those things he rises to speak for or against, he would be a clever debater, but with all his faults he has Beach and Jackson both skinned by a ten to one shot. He sees a point and loses no time in making it, and being something of a parliamentarian in a running debate it takes a clever opponent to hold him down. This is his third session in the house and he is well up on the rules, which is a great help to him in the debates. less logical in his talk his delivery is in an undertone and after he has been speaking for a minute it becomes a continuous monotone and reminds you of a rumbling running train each minute getting further and further from you, until the sound dies in the distance. Mr. Edge is lacking in positiveness as he will advocate a thing in the forenoon and will reverse himself in the afternoon. He, however, is a Democrat and that may account for his legislative eccentricities. Todd, the youngest member of the house, who hails from Lincoln county, would have a hundred times more influence with the members if he were not so thoroughly convinced that, he is a real statesman. We are of the opinion that he will improve with exper- ience, but he is a budding young Democrat, and the odds are greatly against his ever seeing the legislature again. Mr. Todd is much troubled with "I" this and "I" that and in his debating contests his fellow members soon tire of his personal prattle. His pose on the floor and his studied words are all convincing that the young man practiced long and well before a mirror before he left home for Olympia as to just how he would stand, how he would jesticulate and, finally, how he would articulate LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 PUBLICAN Volume XV, Number 24 H. R. CAYTON, Publisher thinks he is. But serious, it is a fact that Mr. Farnsworth is a very clever debater and if he returns to the legislature he will become a strong floor leader even among Republicans. His voice is clear and distinct. He knows what he wants to say, he says it and he takes his seat without repeating himself a half a dozen times trying to make a long speech. But Mr. Fansworth, like all Democrats in this state is simply a Republican mishap that will hardly happen again. Just why Representative R. S. Lambert of Whatcom should be so anxious to take the floor on every debate that is precipitated in the house no one Lambert Thinks but himself seems to know and it is He Is a Talker. very doubtful if he does. Like so many men who are as totally devoid of all the qualities that go to make up a speaker and debater as is a steamboat whistle in an early morning fog, Mr. Lambert, too, has made himself believe he possesses those qualities and having convinced himself that he does he is working overtime to convince the other fellow. About the only quality as a floor leader that he seems to possess is that he himself believes what he himself says and to that end is conscientious. He would be a useful member if he would cut out his speech-making and eagerness to mix in all of the debates. There may be and there may not be any real cause for an investigation as to the internal workings of the various state house offices, but Official Investigation there is a sufficient amount of Should Be Invited. rumor afloat for the officers themselves to court official investiga- tion, that is, "if they are on the square and in the open," as it is verily believed that the most if not all of them are. It's the really dishonest official or individual that fears investigation as to his handling of either public or private properties. There is always more or less suspicion that hovers about the head of a public official and if such official shows any disposition to close his books from the public or to not court the most thorough and searching investigation, if the public seems to want it, then that suspicion will sooner or later become an open accusation. A stitch is time always saves nine. Always bear in mind that, for want of a nail a shoe was lost, for want of a shoe a horse was lost, for want of a horse a man was lost and all for the want of a horseshoe nail. The members of the legislature are being piteously importuned these dying days of the session by their constituents to save, if possible, their Legislature Chased personal graft bills from natural Wine and Women. Such a constituent was overheard making such a plea and his representative was repeatedly telling him that it was impossible to get his bill out of the committee. Mr. Constituent was not satisfied with Mr. Representative's word, so he sees the chairman of the committee himself and got cold comfort. It was but a few minutes thereafter before he began to berate the entire legislature for wasting the people's money by spending two months here and doing nothing. "Why all this damn legislature has done has been to chase win and women," he vociferously exclaimed. He referred to the local option and woman suffrage bills, but those members who heard him must have interpreted it differently, as they shook with anger and resentment. Whereupon a bystander gently exclaimed, "Guilty conscience needs no accusing," and nobody replied. After playing horse for almost the entire session those members of the legislature that have been under the influence of Boyd P. Doty shook off Horse Play the legislative vampire and voted for a Cut Out. reasonable local option bill. The extremes, who for a time would listen to Horse Play Cut Out. no form of compromise on the subject, but held out for prohibition or nothing, were glad of an opportunity to accept such terms as were handed out to them. The senate first broke the Doty spell and passed the Nichols bill and the same was immediately transmitted to the house, where it was referred to the committee on public morals. After a week's diagnosing of the bill that committee created an entirely new bill for the consideration of the house, which, after a day or more of warngling over it, was passed and immediately transmitted to the senate. The salient feature of the new bill is it makes all incorporated cities a unit within themselves and the balance of the county a unit. --- IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of WIOR OF THE A.

Attorney for Plaintiff. Office and P. O. Address: 629 Burke Building, Seattle, Washington. March 5. April 16. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington in and for King County. In the Matter of the Guardianship of George Klinefelter, Annie Klinefelter, Hazel Klinefelter, and Leonard Klinefelter. Journals. No. 9166. Order to Show Cause. George W. Klinefelter, the guardian herein, having presented to the Court and filed herein his verified petition in all respects in compliance with law praying for an order of sale of the one-half interest of said minors in and to the court appointed in Clallam County, State of Washington, and more particularly described as follows: The North half of the Northeast quarter and the Southeast quarter of the Northeast quarter of Section thirty-two, Township twenty-nine North of Range fourteen West, and it appears that there is not sufficient personal estate in the hands of said guardian to pay for the education and support of said minors, and to pay the just debts of said minors, and discharge certain liens on the real estate belonging to the said minors, and it is necessary that said guardian be so equipped with funds for said purposes, and the court being fully advised in the premises It is ordered that all persons interested in said estate be and they are hereby directed to appear before this Court in Department No. 4 of the Superior Court Office, Washington, on the 18th day of March, 1909, at the hour of 9:30 a. m., then and there to show cause if any they have why an order shall not be made authorizing said guardian to sell the real estate of said wards for the purposes and for it.

Legal Publications a Specialty. March, so far as the Puget Sound country goes, came in through the lion's mouth. That Green Lake real estate dealer may have had his fun first, but the indignant woman got hers last and he is both wiser and the sorer. Taft's inauguration yesterday, was the most imposing thing that has ever taken place in the United States. Is that an indication that a king and queen will sooner or later hold forth in this, "land of the free and home of the brave?" "Pittsburg Officials Guilty of Graft", says a headline, and if the truth were known many of the officials of every other city in the United States are tarred with the same stick. On the jury that is trying the Standard Oil concern in Chicago sits a farmer. It was quite considerate on the part of the "interests" to condescend to have one farmer on the jury, but dollars to doughnuts they knew their man before they consented for him to go on the jury. The members of the eminent domain inspectors of Seattle have been endeavoring for weeks to lobby a bill through the legislature increasing their salaries from $5 to $10 per day. Had they been at home trying to do their duties they would have come nearer earning the sum they are already being paid. "The current issue of the Bertillion Eye, a local police and detective publication, is embellished with excellent photographs of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition officials; deserters from the United States army, crooks and Alden J. Blethen," says a news item of the P. I. Here is a back handed compliment that, in our opinion, is the worst that Col. Blethen has ever gotten in the Northwest. Talk about "the most unkindest cut of all," but here it is in all its glory. Jack Patterson has been declared the hero of the horse rescuing escapade in Seattle a few days ago and awarded the gold medal. We believe we would rather not have had the medal if it were to bring the cheap notoriety that it did. There may be a mad scramble to get on the jury in some places, but if all of the citizens of King county are of a like mind as those summoned to Judge Albertson's court last Monday to serve on the jury for the ensuing month, such a desire is not common to the citizens of this com- --- munity. "All of those desiring to be excused, rise and come forward," said the Judge. Whereupon every one of the entire venire rose and presented themselves to the court each thinking he had a good and valid reason for not acting as a juryman. Times must be exceedingly good when men refuse to earn three dollars per day as juryman and that too when they would perhaps not be called on to sit more than two thirds of the actual time they were summoned to serve. WOMAN SUFFRAGE. The legislature has passed a bill which provides for the submission to the people of an amendment to the constitution giving women the right to vote. The legislature simply did its duty. If two-thirds of the electorate of this state want women to have the right of franchise, they should have it. And in the opinion of The Tribune, they should have it anyhow. We havn't always thought so. But a broad, conscientious study of the principles involved must bring any thoughtful, fair, unbiased mind to this conclusion. As a matter of right, why shouldn't a woman be entitled to vote? Why, for example, should every ignorant, unprincipled, irresponsible old toper be vested with a right of citizenship which is denied to your mother, A A. S. RUTH President Senate wife and sister? Where is the justice of it?—Puyallup Independent. The woman suffrage bill finally passed the senate last Tuesday, and as it has already passed the house and will receive Governor Hay's signature, it will be submitted to the people for ratification or rejection at the next general election. It now remains to be seen what the temper of the people of the state may be to- [Picture of a man in a suit and bow tie]. SAM H. NICHOLS Secretary of State ATTLE REPUBLICAN ward this important proposition. Washington, in the '80s, experimented with female sniffrage, and after about two years' trial, revoked the privilege for many reasons, mainly social and domestic. We were then in a territorial condition. Whether the fact that we now enjoy statehood, with a large increase in population, will affect the body politic toward a favorable consideration of this suffrage amendment to our constitution, is the question now at issue.—Big Bend Empire. House bill No. 59, providing for the submission of a constitutional amendment granting women the right to vote, was passed by the senate Tuesday and is now ready for the signature of the governor. If the rank and file of the women of our state want the ballot, they are now in a position to get it, but the male voters will first want to know whether all this clamor for woman's suffrage comes from the home and fireside, instead of from a few woman agitators and disgruntled old maids,—Odessa Record. HOT REPUBLICAN SCRAP. One of the hottest political fights in Republican circles that this state has ever seen is now on and Governor Hay, S. H. Nichols, J. H. Schively, E. W. Ross, J. A. [Picture of a man in a suit and bow tie]. M. E. HAY Acting Governor Falconer and A. S. Ruth, all well known men, are taking the lead in it. Hay and Senator Falconer are asking the legislature to appoint a joint committee to investigate the various state offices and the state house officials are protesting. Secretary Nichols and Insurance Commissioner Schively seem to be the immediate ones that are under suspicion, while Mr. Ross has come to their rescue as a matter of friendship. Senator Ruth, president of the senate, does not look E. W. ROSS State Land Commissioner with favor on the investigation and will oppose it if it peeps up in the senate again. BENCH AND BAR. Our Supreme Court has held that a man is not guilty of fraud in not calling attention of another to the latter's mistake. In the case of Evert vs. Tower decided February 1st, 1909, it appeared that the Bell Tower Co., received $1,665 worth of eggs shipped to it by one Evert who drew on the company a draft for only $456—being $1,200 less than the correct amount, Evert did not discover the mistake until more than three years thereafter. He alleged that the company knew of the mistake at the time and that its concealing the same was a fraud on him and that the statute of limitations did not commence to run until he learned of it. But both the trial and appellant courts held that the company's action did not amount to a legal fraud such as would prevent the statute of limitations from running. The importance of an initial letter of one's name was made evident in the supreme court's decision in Carney vs. Bingham. Certain property was assessed to John E. Carney. A tax delinquency certificate recited the name as John G. Carney, and foreclosure proceedings were had under such name. Summons was published. John E. Carney lived near the property J. A. FALCONER J. A. FALCONER State Senator and was well known. The court held that the mistake in the initial of the middle name rendered the proceedings invalid as against the property and the owner John E. Carney. The recent Judicial appointments made by Acting Governor Hay have given general satisfaction. The appointment of Judge Morris was well received and especially in King county, where he had served a long time C. W. JOHN H. SCHIVELY Insurance Commissioner FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1909 upon the bench of the superior court. He is an able lawyer and a fearless judge, but withal a courteous gentlemen whose bearing has won the respect and kindly feeling of attorneys and litigants before him. At the bar primary last summer he received the largest vote of any candidate. Judge Parker is highly thought of and his appointment was not unexpected although an effort was made by a portion of the Pierce county bar to have another attorney appointed. Judge Parker was a candidate last fall and received a large plurality. The appointment of J. T. Ronald to succeed Judge Morris upon the superior court bench in King county, came as a surprise to many—but, generally speaking, it was a pleasant surprise. Ronald is a Democrat but a good lawyer of large experience. He is regarded especially strong as a trial lawyer and hence will be particularly efficient upon the trial court bench. The appointment of John F. Main is regarded as a good appointment and especially gratifying to the younger attorneys and to the students and alumni of the State University with which institution he has for seven years been connected as an instructor in the law department. He is a deep student, a hard worker, a man of good judgment and conscientious in his work. Each and all of the men stand for those things which make for good, clean government and the appointments are therefore gratifying to the best people of the state. "I was only acting the part of peace-maker," explained the prisoner. "But you knocked the man senseless with a stick," the magistrate pointed out. "Sure I did," was the answer.

The Seattle Republican is without a competitor in the field of weekly journalism of this state and this is said without fear of successful contradiction. The Republican is no competitor to the Argonaut of San Francisco or Goodwin's Weekly of Salt Lake City, Utah, but is as far ahead of the weekly papers of the state of Washington as the above mentioned weeklies are ahead of it. During the life of the eleventh legislature a representative of The Seattle Republican has been constantly on the ground, has mingled with the members, has observed them in the discharge of their official duties and on publication day used the entire front page of the paper discussing the questions the members were advocating and in which the public was vitally interested. It has endeavored to be fair to all, but be that as it may there is no denying that it is an up-to-date weekly and with more energy and enterprise than all of the other weekly papers of the state combined Despite the fact that the United States woke up this morning having a brand new president and an almost entirely new cabinet, nevertheless there will Uncle Sam Has a Brand New Administration. hardly be any radical changes instituted by the new administration from those pursued by the outgoing administration. If Mr. Taft has been quoted correctly, and we think he has, he prior to his inauguration went over his inaugural address with President Roosevelt with the view of being in perfect harmony with his policy, hence it is fair to presume that everything will move on in the even tenor of its way though "Teddy" has been supplanted by Taft. This, after all, is a wonderful old government of ours as it can shift from administration to administration, from peace to war and from war back to peace without any commotion among the rank and file of the great mass of citizens. In other words, a Democratic administration can succeed a Republican and a Republican a Republican and the people—the bone and sinew of the land—are not disturbed in the slightest degree. The farmer of today becomes the warrior of tomorrow and the warrior with the same readiness becomes the farmer. The citizens of no other country in the When the Savior was on earth Satan took him on the mountain top and showed him the world and the fullness thereof, all of which he offered to the Lord God of Hosts if he would fall down and worship him, but he was rebuked and commanded to "get ye behind me." When Henry Clay, one of the foremost statesmen of the United States, was bending every energy and straining every nerve in his mind, soul and body to be president of the United States, it was put up to him by the "interests" of the country to choose between his sense of right and the presidency, but he was not to be tempted from the road of right, and he unhesitatingly replied, "I would rather be right than president." We believe that William Howard Taft will on tomorrow, after he has become president of this proud republic, say to the "interests," get ye behind me. We believe he will say to the money bags this is a government of the people, for the people and by the people, and no special interests will swerve me from my purpose of serving the people. To err, we are told, is human, and if on the other hand Mr. Taft should elect to throw the weight of his administration on the side of the interests he will not have done any more than the rest of the presidents of the United States for the past half century or more, with the exception of Theodore Roosevelt, have done, and despite this the country has existed and in many ways prospered, though it may have wandered somewhat away from the straight and narrow path blazed out by Washington, Jefferson, Monroe and Harrison.

Such it seems will be the nature of the commission. Difficult as are these tasks, we predict that they will be done. A matter of vital concern to Liberians, Liberia will be helped. A matter of momentous importance to the Negroes of the world, the Liberian Republic will be preserved.—New York Age. will be recalled that the efforts largely of Charles Sumner and Frederik Douglass defeated the project. The critical condition of Liberia demands that a commission no less able should be sent, Grave problems both of territory and government confront the Republic. Fruitful sources for these have been the uncharted boundaries of Liberia and her conflicting treaties with the great powers and the African tribes. There are internal questions no less hard: a stable financial and customs system, the provision of a sufficient and sustaining education, the need of renovating the condition of the government, the dethronement of the grafters, the placing and institution of honest woes.

In spite of Democratic protests President McKinley appointed him collector of customs of the port of Charleston, South Carolina, but the Democrats in the senate were able to put off his confirmation from time to time and in the mean time President McKinley me his tragic death and Dr. Crum became a legacy of President Roosevelt. In the latter he found a grand defender and champion of human rights and when the senate refused to confirm him the president promptly sent his name in again and so on until he was confirmed. His second confirmation did not meet the same determined opposition as did his first, but when the president sent it in for a third confirmation, through the influence of Senator Tillman it was held up and President Taft would have been called upon to grapple with the same ugly situation as had his two immediate successors. Dr. Crum realizing the embarrassment it might give Mr. Taft tendered his resignation to take effect March 4th, thus going out of office with the man who had stood by him like a stone wall.

Mr. Roosevelt Taft the Toiler has set a pace for his successor that in the Succeeds opinion of the writer he will do well to closely Teddy the Terrible follow. It has already been said that the money bags of the United States have delivered their ultimatum to Mr. Taft to the effect that, if the "interests" of the country were not harrassed by him as they were by President Roosevelt his administration would be a brilliant success, and General Prosperity would marshal his forces undisturbed in every nook and corner of this country, from the lakes to the gulf and from ocean to ocean, or it would be a series of financial disasters.

WASHINGTON For any race, regardless of color, just emerging from a state of bondage to a state of freedom it is mighty important in the evolution of that race that it be taught as soon as possible, especially while it is getting the experience in its early life, to keep its feet upon the earth—to not yield to the temptation to fly off into artificial atmosphere. The teaching of the young Negroes in the south to keep their feet on the earth, to keep in touch with the soil, to keep in touch with wood and iron and the real things of life, has been farreaching and most helpful in influence. The results of this kind of theaching will show themselves much more in the future than in the immediate present. Then, too, for a race just coming out of slavery it was mighty important at many large centers in the south that the race should have that education which should teach it the dignity of labor, the same lessons that the early settlers of New England learned years ago, the same lessons in regard to labor which have made the present generation of people who inhabit New England strong, powerful and useful citizens. The Negro, like any other race, needs its professional men, needs men with college and university education, but back of these and around these it needs an intelligent, thrifty, skillful, producing class who look upon all kinds of labor as dignified and all kinds of idleness as disgraceful. PRESIDENT-ELECT AFT VISITS NEW OR LEANS. President-elect and Mrs. Taft arrived in New Orleans February 11th, on their return from Panama. Never was a welcome more hearty than that accorded Mr. Taft by the citizens of New Orleans. The city was gaily decorated in his honor. As he was escorted through the principal streets of the city by a large procession of prominent New Orleans business men, and numerous military and secret organizations he was vociferously cheered by the thousands who had assembled to greet him, Mr. Taft was delighted with the genuineness of the enthusiasm displayed and said: "I think New Orleans extended the greatest welcome given me of any city I have visited so far." One of the most pleasing features of Mr. Taft's visit was the reception accorded him by the colored citizens of New Orleans under the auspices of the Colored Young Men's Christian Association. More than ten thousand progressive Negroes representing every walk in life assembled to greet the President-elect. His address upon this occasion was practical and optimistic. It is Mr. Taft's chief desire that all traces of sectionalism be removed. The keynote of his speeches is that he will be President of all the people. President-elect and Mrs. Taft departed carrying BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. with them the prayers and best wishes of all.-South Western Christian Advocate. NOTABIE DEAD. E. J.

CURRENT COMMENT BARING MEN in political life, who are the ten greatest living Americans? is a question New Yorkers have been recently exercising themselves over. The answers have been many and varied. The following ten names are found to be in the lead: Thomas A. Edison Andrew Carnegie J. Pierpoint Morgan John D. Rockefeller Mark Twain Admiral Dewey Charles W. Eliot Cardinal Gibbons Henry Clews Alexander Graham Bell. ABANDONED FARMS is a serious question just looming upon the Eastern horizon. The west has unceasingly encouraged emigration during the recent past, consequently there has been a slow but steady stream of emigrants toward the far west. Eastern men have awakened to find many of their farms abandoned and so have organized what is to be knowa as the Eastern Farm-Life Protective Association. There will be a strong effort put forth to stop this out going tide and turn it to the smaller farms and truck gardens of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and some of the Southern states. STRANGE SHORT STORIES That Alligator dinner, given to President Taft in New Orleans cost $25.00 per plate. Wonder if Brer Charley paid for Bill's.

The idea of associating her name in that way with an ordinary American when her illustrious father is on the verge of sailing for Africa where royal families are as thick as hairs on a dog's back, is absolutely disgusting. A Chicago policeman, who has been on the force in that city for the past twenty three years. retired from the office last Monday, and it is estimated that he is worth in the neighborhood of $200,000, which sum he made and accumulated while he was on the force. It is plain to be seen why there is always a rush to get on the police force—there is money in it. Dr. F. W. Sparling is Dead. Dr. F. W. Sparling is Dead. A vigorous champion of the Union, which he helped to defend during the four years of the Great Civil war, passed away last Monday after a week's illness in the person of Dr. F. W. Sparling of Seattle. Though born in Ireland the United States never produced a more loyal son than he. He never became thoroughly reconciled to the Southern Confederates and repeatedly desired another opportunity to shoot every mother's son of them into the fiery furnace of everlasting perdition. He was for many years prominent in the political affairs of the state and for two years coroner of King county. An Arkansas justice of the peace, was a jovial, good-natured man and always ready to do a favor for a friend. Sam Jackson was being sued in the justice's court, but had not yet engaged a lawyer to defend him and asked the justice to recommend a reliable lawyer for that purpose. "Take my old friend Donnegan," said the Justice. "Donnegan is a fine fellow," said Jackson, "but I do not think him a good lawyer." "Perhaps not," replied the Justice, "but he has never lost a case in this court." Donnegan was employed and was rewarded with his usual success. FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1909.
