THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
SEATTLE. WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1909.
A great deal has been said condemnatory to the last legislature of the State of Washington, but after all a great many things were passed by that body which will be of invaluable service to the growth of the State. The editor of The Seattle
Lay Citizens Criticise Legislature
While Ralph Nichols, of the Thirty-first Senatorial District, was a very active member of the senate and always got in with the majority, yet it is very doubtful if he gave general satisfaction to either his constituents or anyone else. Ralph feels his importance, and if you do not join with him in that feeling he proceeds to cut you out. Some man like Billy Carle or some other strong and popular man will skin Ralph two to one, and for him to be left at home would be a real blessing to the taxpayers.
Senator E. M. Williams voted on some measures that were before the late legislature that has made him a great many political enemies, and they are already after his scalp in the Thirty-second Senatorial District
Discussing the members that were the most useful in the late legislature is again a matter of private and personal opinion and almost wholly from the standpoint in which one is interested. This paper has already said much along this line and it will from time to time continue to say things as to
Doctor Ghent

It is said that
It is said that his political enemies are organizing against him and are satisfied they will defeat him in the primaries. This, however, is much easier said than done, because Williams, too, is a political scraper and is likewise organizing for the battle. With a dozen or more aspirants in the field he is almost certain of succeeding himself, but on the other hand, if the battle is narrowed down to a two-handed contest, the odds are greatly against Williams.
In the Thirty-third Senatorial District it is hard to say whether P. L. Allen will be able to succeed himself or not, but the chances are that he can, providing he is satis- Thirty-Third.
factory to Senator Piles, who lives in the district. It cannot be said of Allen that he was a useful member of the legislature or that he has any particular fitness for that kind of work, but it can be said of him that he makes himself a good fellow with the members and succeeds in getting many things through the legislature in which he is personally interested by so doing. He therefore may be able to succeed himself. It looks to the writer that George U. Piper made himself solid with his constituents in the Thirty-fourth Senatorial District and will have Thirty-Fourth. no opposition for re-election. If
he has any at all it will be so slight that he will not mind it. It is said that the wholesale liquor dealers will oppose him, but it's a long time before the election and they may see it in a different light by that time, but even if they do, he will be nominated beyond the peradventure of a doubt. State Senator W. G. Potts, who was chairman of the appropriations committee of the senate in the eleventh
as he has moved into the Thirty-seventh Senatorial District. He therefore is not looking for the job from that district, but it is said that his mantle is destined to fall on Representative G. W. Jeffries.
While Senator George F. Cotterill, of the Thirty-sixth Senatorial District proved himself a very useful member and was truly an able one, yet he is a Democrat in politics and despite his ability he
will have the task of a Hercules to succeed himself. It will be remembered that he only beat his opponent two votes when he was elected, and the Republicans of this district are beginning to organize even now to defeat Cotterill, and there is hardly any doubt but that they will down him. Prior to the senatorial contest, however, Cotterill will again try to be mayor of Seattle, and should he be successful he would not be a candidate to succeed himself.

POLITICAL POT PIE.
Republican was present for the most part while the legislature was in session and he can say without fear of successful contradiction that, there was less signs of legislative corruption lurking about the eleventh legislature than any other legislature in the history of the state. If any member got any money at all for his vote on any measure the sum was so small that it would not have set even the state house on fire much less the world, as goes the expression. Every time a legislature meets the lay citizens raise a howl that the members thereof are the most worthless lot that ever got together, but such is said without consideration, as those making the statement have no idea of just what previous legislatures really did accomplish in the way of good legislation. Some of the acts passed by the late legislature were vetoed and some of them that were not vetoed, in our opinion, should have been vetoed, but this again is only the opinion of one individual. If the governor had cut the appropriation bill some two million dollars or more it would have been a charitable act for the tax-payers, but he did not see fit to do so and so we must all stand for it.
Doctor Ghent Made Good
the personnel of the members. In this connection the name of Dr. Ghent occurs to the writer. To begin with he is a prepossessing looking gentleman and makes a good impression. He is also a good talker and never failed to respond when those things in which he was interested were before the body. From the very beginning he identified himself with those members known as the "wets," and he made a consistent fight for a local option law that to his mind would be fair. He made a number of speeches on the subject when it was up for discussion and always covered himself with much glory. His tuberculosis bill asking for an appropriation of $50,000 for the erection of a sanatarium under state auspices was a very meritorious act and should have been passed. The great "white plague" is a most dangerous foe to the human family and civilization the world over is combining to combat its ravages, and the measure proposed by Dr. Ghent was in keeping with the efforts that are being put forth all over the country. The bill, however, met its fate in the senate, and more, it is alleged, on account of personal differences than for any real opposition to the bill. He was interested in other bills equally as meritorious as those mentioned above and on the whole it can be said of Dr. Ghent that he made a most valuable member, the criticisms of Senator George F. Cotterill to the contrary notwithstanding. He will have little, if any, opposition for re-election.
Those lay members who did not approve of the course pursued by John A. Whalley, make no bones in saying that he was a dead one in the legislature. He of course was a dead one from their standpoint, but they do not know the facts
Whalley Was a Live Wire
when they speak in that way. Mr. Whalley was one of the most active members in the legislature and for a new member, with no more gift of oratory than he, few others accomplished as much as he did. He was the direct opposite of Dr. Ghent, and so far as the writer could observe they never agreed on anything unless it was on a motion to adjourn, and not always on that. Say what you will or may about Whalley, his opponents always knew just where to find him. In other words he was either for or against your proposition. He put through some very valuable insurance legislation and was active in the passage of a local option bill. He never approved of a real prohibition measure and yet he occasionally voted in a way that lead one to think that he did. There is no doubt but that he pleased his constituents and that he will be returned to the legislature if he so desires to succeed himself.
"I am inclined to think that the most of the members of the legislature from King county should be left at home next year when the time to nominate and elect members for the twelfth legislature comes round," said a very prominent newspaper man one day this week. After listening to the remarks on leaving the members of the eleventh legislature at home when the twelfth legislature is being made up it occurred to the writer that a word might be said on this subject.
King county has eight state senators, and the first in order is I. B. Knickerbocker, of the Thirtieth Senatorial District. There may have been more brilliant speakers in the senate than Mr. Knickerbocker, but there was no more conscientious or successful worker in the senate than he, and there is not a shadow of doubt but that if he desires to succeed himself he will do so, and that, too, almost without a dissenting vote. He was one of the very strong men of the senate.

If there was one man in the eleventh legislature whose constituents are dead after him that man is Robert F. Booth, of the Thirty-seventh Senatorial District. There is no more show for Booth to succeed Thirty-Seventh.

himself than there is of a snowball flying through hades. He not only did not please those of his constituents that favored legislation for the "wets," but he did not please those of his constituents that favored legislation for the "drys." If a member could act more unbecoming and ungentlemanly in a body of men than did Senator Booth, then he would have to do a whole lot of figuring in order to accomplish it. The next senator from that district will hardly pronounce his name Booth, even if it takes a Democrat to prevent it.
CURRENT COMMENT
ROOSEVELT SAILS FOR AFRICA
America's most renowned son and the United States' most distinguished citizen is now on the high seas en route to Africa, where for the next twelve months he will hunt big game and study the natives of that now very remarkable country, which has been considered the rightful home of the blacks, but who, like the reds of the Americas, are being driven from their native heaths and not wanted in any other country are being swallowed by the sea. Teddy, as his fellow-countrymen are pleased to term him when he is not present, sailed last Tuesday at high noon, and nothing was more indicative of his real greatness than the presence of the multiplied thousands of his fellow-citizens, who lined the docks and wharves of the New York harbor to get a glimpse of him as he was sailing away. Despite the fact that he is only a privtae citizen, yet the crowds are as anxious to pay him homage as when he was president of the United States, all of which go to show that the man is truly great whether in or out of office.
THE UNCROWNED KING
Notwithstanding the fact that Theodore Roosevelt more than William Howard Taft is responsible for the latter now being president, and notwithstanding the fact that Theodore Roosevelt has been the United States government for the past seven years, and notwithstanding the fact that the citizens of the United States love Theodore Roosevelt more than any other living man, yet but a few days after he retired from the White House he set sail for a foreign land to be absent fully half of Taft's term, thereby completely divorcing himself from the affairs of the government and leaving President Taft to do as suits him best, all of which makes him the most remarkable man in the world. It has been said of Mr. Roosevelt that he is the uncrowned king of the world, and it is not an exaggeration. Though absent from his native land and though divorced from government affairs, yet his works live on and his reforms are growing every day, and the entire civilized world is learning to love and admire him just as much as the citizens of the United States. The counsel of no living man would have a hundredth part of the influence with all nations in the world as that of Theodore Roosevelt.
LOST IN THE AIR
Lost in the jungles or in the fastnesses of the mountains has been common to the United States since the white man first landed at Plymouth Rock, but to be lost in the air is a new and perhaps novel experience for the ever restless inhabitant of the United States, who seem to be constantly in search of some undiscovered land or country into which he can rush, if not for conquest, for gold, the white man's god. Doubtless to get ahead of all others in making a complete observation of the Sierra Madre mountains prompted Capt. Augusto F. Mueller, with five companions, to go up in the baloon America at Pasadena, Cal., to take a sail over the mountains in search of something new. Unfortunately for the party a heavy snow storm set in a few hours after they had been in the air, and in order to keep out of its fury they were compelled to go up some 13,000 feet. They were sufficiently high to clear the mountain peaks, but did not have fuel enough to take them some ninety miles across the mountains to the plains, and to do that might have been certain death for them, as the plains beyond is a great desert on which nothing lives any length of time. They therefore concluded to light in the mountains, and verily did do so, and after a few hours' intense suffering made their way back to the foot of the mountains to meet the entire country made up in searching parties looking for them. Despite the thrilling experience the men declared they enjoyed the outing.

CURRENT COMMENT.
MONEYLESS MEN, are simply not wanted if their lack of means will necessitate a shabby appearance. No one wants to do business with a shabily attired person as an employer or employee. One writer says: "Rich or poor let the universe of men and women garb themselves in the very best possible." There is much worthy of consideration in the advice. A shabhy man or a shabby woman is despised the whole world over. No one respects them and old adages such as "Worth makes the man" and "Poverty is no crime" have been over shadowed years ago. "Fine feathers make fine birds." There is something of a philosopher after all in the man who makes the sometimes herculean effort to cover up the fact that his fnmily is needy by a neat appearance. That it is generally understood the shabhy man is not respected is daily demonstrated by the men and their families as they walk on the streets. The man is well clothed while the economies are practiced by the wife and children. At a glance this might appear as selfishness, but the man must daily meet the public and a prosperous appearance is what the public demands. This may be a human weakness but such are the conditions.
DEATH OF INFANTS in most cases is due to ignorance. Thousands of babies die annually on account of their mothers unintentional carelessness and ignorance. There is a movement on foot in London, which might be profitably adopted in America, to enlighten young mothers on the care, dress, and food of infants. The average mother among the poorer classes rears her child without thought, plan, or method. It is rather a wonder that so many live beyond their early childhood. These schools for mothers have an honorary medical officer, a woman doctor, who attends two afternoons a week to examine babies and their mothers and to give advice on their feeding, clothing, and general management. The babies are weighed every fortnight and a record kept of their condition. Mothers who come regularly join the club and pay two cents a fortnight, and they try hard to follow instructions in the feeding and clothing of the babies. The doctor in charge found irregularity of feeding to be the most common fault and bronchitis the most common ailment.
THE AWAKENING of Formosa is as wonderful as the awakening of Asia. Japan got Formosa at the close of its war with China, just about five years before the Philippines came to
America. The island was then the throes of rebellion and it was looked upon as about the poorest piece of property in the far east. Its inhabitants were thought to be pirates and savage head hunters, mixed with the lowest grade opium smoking Chinese, and it was turbulent to an extreme. After the island was ceded to the Japanese they had to fight their way from one end of it to the other to conquer it, and they kept a military establishment there for five or six years. The island pays its own expenses and will in time pay for all its improvements. They are putting roads everywhere and have introduced postoffices into all the towns. In 1896 there were only forty-five places where postage stamps could be bought. There are now 600 or 700. About I3,000,000 letters and post card and about 5,000,000 other postal packages go through the mails every year. They have money order offices and postal savings banks with tens of thousands of depositors. About 2,000 miles of telegraph wire and about a half million messages are sent over them every year. The savages were glad to see the Japanese come in and some of the tribes are quite docile. Schools have been established among them and men from certain tribes have visited Japan. Taken altogether the outlook fer Formosa is a bright one.
THE OYSTER LAND GRAFT.
"A great many graft bills ran the gauntlet of both houses of the late legislature, but the worst of them all, if such a thing be possible, was the Beach oyster land grab bill. Representative Gunderson, now deceased, who hailed from Mason county, successfully opposed the passage of a similar bill, but he was succeeded by Dr. W. M. Beach, who seems to have the interests of the oyster men more at heart than the state's, and that being a fact, he has hammered away ever since he stepped into Gunderson's shoes to filch the state out of her oyster lands. It's true he only got 400 acres this time, but that's an entering wedge and at each succeeding legislature he will endeavor to get more until all will have been taken."
The above article taken from the Seattle Republican, indicates that the writer labors under the wrong impression common over the state, if we may judge by the press generally coupling this measure with the "Seattle Ditch," "Wenatchee Bridge," "Spokane $30,000 entertaining graft," and a dozen other grabs into the state sack, in which no section of the state which had a single want was overlooked in the combination."
The so-called Callow Act was designed to convey title to some 400 acres of oyster lands in Mason and Thurston counties, which were taken up under territorial laws for the cultivation of oysters. In common with the later Bush Act this law contained the "revisionary clause," providing that the lands might revert to the state when used for any other purpose than the culti-

vation of oysters; carrying out the intent of the legislature when the provision for title to these oystermen was made.
However, the Callow Act, as interpreted by the best legal authority, seems to go further than this, and make it possible for the state to escheat these lands, whether or not they continue to be used in good faith for oyster cultivation, and simply pay back to the owner the price originally paid to the state and the "value of the improvements," which at any time would be represented merely by the oysters thereon, and no consideration made of the amount of work, if any, in the preparation and improvement of these grounds.
At the time those who had earned the right to do so, were permitted to perfect these rights, the lands were appraised by a board of commissers, and the price ranged as high as $23 an acre. While perhaps not half of the 400 acres are of material value, a good part of the remainder is after the lapse of twenty years, of considerable value. This is doubtless true of many thousands of acres of tide lands of other classes heretofore sold by the state at merely nominal prices, usually about $1.26 an acre. There is no demand that the state withhold a full and absolute title to these other lands, and as the oystermen who hold the Callow Act lands are using them in good faith, and as none of this class of lands has, or ever will have any value for other uses, the passage of the long-deferred law confirming title seems an act of simple justice.
Referring to the position of the late Mr. Gunderson the Republican seems to have confused this act with the county's contest against the attempted "oyster reserve" grabs of its fellows townsman, ex-Senator and Representative Palmer. Mr. Gunderson and all other representatives from Mason County have asked for the passage of the bill confirming titles to the lands originally conveyed by the state, but have consistently opposed any effort to have the state part with the title of any oyster reserve lands, either to its own citizens or to outsiders.—Mason County Journal. Acting Gov. Hay vetoed the Beach bill and this ends the case for at least two years.
We hear much about the "Seattle grab," chiefly from persons who couldn't, if it would save their souls, tell you the real facts in the case. The truth is that there is a great deal of merit in Seattle's claim for an appropriation for the Lake Washington canal enterprise, and we would not have the slightest bit of difficulty in recognizing it—if it were Tacoma's enterprise instead of Seattle's. By a thousand times, it is a more meritorious proposition than the purchasing by the state of the Wenatchee bridge, or the appropriation to Spokane of $30,000 for the entertainment of an irrigation congress. O, for a little candor and consistency in these days of false pretense and envy!—Puyallup Tribune.

This was drawn to compel the railroads owning rich terminals in Seattle to pay their just proportion of taxes. The assessor says the railroads under the proposed bill would have paid King county $250,000 more in taxes than they now pay and which in all justice they should pay.

Serre ghee ers ne ee es Leg a yo
on the decision in the contempt
proceedings before Mr. Justice
Wright of the supreme court of
the District of Columbia in the
case of Buck Stove & Range Co.
vs. American Federation of
Labor, 36 Wash. L. Rep. 822, we
have awaited the decision in the
court of appeals on the question
of the validity of the injunction,
which was rendered on March
11, 1909, affirming the decree of
the lower court This in our
opinion concludes also the con-
tempt proceedings, for, if the
injunction was valid, the de-
fendants are clearly subject to
the penalty of the Jaw for violat-
ing it.
The exact issues in this case
extracted from a mass of evi-
dence are not difficult to state.
The plaintiff stove company re-
fused to grant its metal polish-
ersanine hour day. The said
metal polishers thereupon called
a “strike,’’ but being few in
numbers, the strike was: futile
to compel the plaintiff to submit
to their terms. They then
essayed to make use of that more
effective weapon, the boycott.
Right here, however, the plaint-
iff interfered and , requested and
was granted an injunction re-
straining the local union and the
American Federation of Labor
from carrying into effect such
boycott, alleging that the boy-
eott was an illegal conspiracy to
injure their business. One of
the prohibitions of the injunc-
tion which was intended to pre-
vent the carrying into effect of
the conspiracy or boycott was to
the effect that defendants Gom-
pers and others should not in
any manner publish or declare
the plaintiff’s firm to be “‘un-
fair.’’ Here is where the de-
fendants attacked the validity of
the injunction, alleging that
such a mandate was void as de-
priving them of their constitu-
tional right to publish or speak
freely on any subject they might
choose.
The court of appeals has sus-
tained the terms of this injunc-
tion. This action of the court is
quite correct on principle pro-
vided that the premise be cor-
rect, to-wit, that a boycott is an
illegal, conspiracy. Granting
that the boycott was illegal it
was certainly not improper for
the.court to enjoin the attempt
to put it into effect if it be shown
that the injury to property
rights, about to be inflicted, was
irreparable and that there was
no adequate remedy at law.
Following logically, therefore,
to our final conclusion, if the
boyeott was illegal, and the
court had power to restrain
it, it necessarily follows that
whatever’ prohibition is neces-
sary _to make the writ of
injunction effective is. within the
power of the court tomake, even
if the prohibition affects the
constitutional right to print or
speak freely. .
This is not the case of an in-
junction prohibiting an individ-
ual from writing or speaking on
any subject he pleases. There
would be no authority for such
injunction. This is simply the
case of injunction prohibiting an
alleged band of conspirators
from carrying out the object of
their conspiracy, to-wit, the
establishment of a boycott. If
the only means of making effec-
tive the boycott is by writing or
speaking, even the exercise of
such sacred rights may be re-
strained, so far only, however,
as is necessary to prevent the
boycott itself from becoming
effective.
The court .of appeals recog-
nizes clearly this distinction, —
indeed, even more clearly than
did Justice Wright himself, who,
unfortunately, allowed himself
to be swayed by too much per-
sonal feeling against the defend-
ants. The court of appeals in
accordance with the rule, as we
have stated it, modified the
terms of the injunction by elimi-
nating therefrom the restriction
upon the defendants from ‘‘men-
tioning, writing or referring
to the business of the plaint-
iffs.””
The modification of the decree
of the lower court as indicated
was quite proper. ‘No injunc-
tion can thus unnecessarily a-
bridge the right of a free press
or free speech. The extent of
the restrictions which were
proper to be imposed was limit-
ed to those ‘‘‘references’’ by
writing or speaking which were
efficacious in establishing the
boycott, the thing sought to be
prevented,

A buxom young woman of
some twenty summers came into
my office the other day, relates
one of our correspondents, to see
me in regard to securing for her
adivorce. We talked over the
ease, and I advised her that we
would probably have no difficul-
ty in securing the decree on the
grounds of non-support, and
that it was likely to be a default
case.
She then ssked me our fee
and I told her it would cost her
$40.
“Well”? she said, ‘‘mother
has gotten three divorces and I
have gotten two for.$25 each,
and that is all I’m going to pay
for this one.’’
“You are charged with steal-
ing nine of Colonel Henry’s hens
last night. Have you any wit-
nesses?””? asked the Justice
sternly.
“‘Nussah!’’ said Brother Jones
humbly. ‘‘I’spects I’se sawtuh
peculiar dat-uh-way, but it ain’t
never been mah custom to take
witnesses along when I goes out
chicken-stealin’, suh.”’
They were asking the eminent
lawyer why he took so large a
fee from the trust.
“I think it was its largeness
that made it easy to take,’’ he
smilingly answered.
Then the state’s attorneys
conferred.
“And didn’t you stop to con-
sider that the money was taint-
ed?’’ they asked him.
“‘No,’’ he. ingenuously replied,
“J only stopped to count it.’”
| A lawyer came into court
drunk, when the judge said tc
him: ‘Sir, Iam sorry to see
you in a situation which is a dis-
grace to yourself and family and
the profession to which you
belong.”’
This, reproof elicted the fol-
lowing colloquy: :
‘Did your Honor speak to
me?”
“I did sir, I said, sir, that in
my opinion you disgraced your-
self and family, the court and
the profession, by your course
of conduct.”
‘May i-i-it please your Honor,
T have been an attorney in-in-in
this court for fifteen years, and
permit me to say, your Honor,
that this is the first eorreet opin-
ion I ever knew you to give.”

Class Distinction Is Un-Am-
merican; Neighborliness
Should Prevail.
By JACOH A, RITS, puthor and Journalist,
Twenty years ago there
wasn’t’ a single settlement in
New York city. Now there are
| more than sixty of them, and
the settlement idea is spreading
| everywhere.
The settlement is not a cure-
all. Its justa means of giving
us something that in our modern
cities we otherwise havn’t got at
all—neighborliness in the true
sense of the word. In the small
villages from which our cities
grew there was democracy in
coe relations. The city has
illed that. But it is essential
toa full and complete life, and
we must revive it.
All the grasping and the greed
of the world comes from not re-
garding our fellows as our neigh-
bors. One dosen’t trample his
neighbors. He works withthem
to a common end. We must
come to look on all the world as
our neighbors.
We must do away with the
idea of classes, There isn’t any
justification, for class lines in
America. They are unjust, un-
wholesome, unrighteous and un-
American.
Why should we have class lines
here in this country and one man
despise another just because he
has been lucky enough to make
a little more money? Aman has
some right to be proud of what
he makes with his own hands
and his own brains, but he
hasn’t any business putting on
airs over what he is merely try-
ing to spend,
| Weare all workin
pe America. I have never seen
aman that was worth anything
who didn’t work in one way or
another. I think that often the
man who sits at a desk does
harder work than the man who
handles ashovel. But, anyway,
| they both are workingmen.
There are just two classes,
those who work and those who
don’t, and there isn’t any reason.
why all those who work
ehouldnt be neighbors to each
‘other in the true sense.
The Color Line in Cuba.
No sooner is Cuba fairly start-
ed out on her career of independ-
ent self-government than her
pathway is beset with difficult-
ies. An insurrection is said to
be brewing in the province of
Santiago, and predictions are
freely made that the government
will not survive two years. The
race issue is to the fore there as
it is in our Southern states, with
the added complication that the
white inhabitants of the island
are in a minority and it is not
easy to see how they can devise
a plan by which authority can be
kept out of the hands of the col-
ored race, which is ina large
majority have thus far done any-
thing to give an excuse for
trouble, it is probable that the
agitation is due to the clique of
annexationists in Cuba and the
United States, whose only hope
of carrying out their program is
to stir upa rebellion that will
compel the American govern-
ment to interpose for a third,
and probably the final, time in
Cuban affairs.—Catholie Pro-

The Seattle Republican, a paper published by Negroes for Negroes, has just issued a beautiful special edition which is a credit to the publishers and the city of Seattle alike. The issue contains a large number of half-tones of views in and around the cities of Seattle and Tacoma, and many cuts of Negro citizens of more or less prominence in business and the professions. Such a product merits a wide circulation and will result in benefit to those connected with its production.—Cle Elum Echo.
A publication of uncommon attractiveness and special interest is the Northwest Negro Progress Number of The Seattle Republican, which also marks the celebration of the fourteenth anniversary of this enterprising and progressive newspaper. The number is replete with portraits of the progressive men and women of the race in the far-removed State of Washington, together with illustrations of their comfortable homes and upto-date business establishments. Nor is the coming generation forgotten, because over the caption, "Made in Seattle," appear some cute pictures of the little boys and girls who have made their debut in that thriving town. The edition comprises some eighty pages, printed on coated paper, and the half-tone engravings are of unusual excellence. H. R. Cayton is the editor and publisher of The Republican, and Susie Revels Cayton his associate. An article of timely interest in this edition is the editorial entitled "Come West, Black Man," which we republish in another part of The Age.—New York Age.
The Seattle Republican has just published a special "Northwest Negro Progress Number." It is a creditable publication from every point of view and begins with an editorial entitled, "Come West, Black Man." The issue shows by a concrete representation some of the evidences of progress which have followed upon the efforts of the Negro people of that section to advance in all important directions. The whole edition is well printed and gives live information as to the activities of our people. It is a record of achievements which any group of people could be proud, and we would suggest that our people everywhere secure copies of this special edition of The Seattle Republican.—Tuskegee Student.
The Seattle Republican has given its readers a genuine work of art, literally and typographical, in its seventy-eight page special edition which it has just issued, under the title of The Seattle Republican Northwest Negro Progress Number. The edition is embellished with fine half-tones of progressive Negroes, men and women, of the Puget Sound country, of beautiful homes and other institutions, all of which are highly creditable to our race in this country. The faces of the men and women appearing in this issue are marked with intelligence and Western progressiveness. The editor of The Republican must certainly have selected the finest looking people in Seattle, or else all the people in that city and section are strikingly handsome
PROGRESS OF NORTHWEST NEGRO TO BE EXPLOITED.
The accompanying cuts represent homes owned by Colored folk of Seattle, which cuts first appeared in a special edition of The Seattle Republican in 1907 along with many others. These cuts are reproduced at this time that the readers hereof may get some idea of what the Colored folk of Seattle are doing toward home-building.
The Seattle Republican is preparing to issue a similar publication in the very near future, which will be more comprehensive than the Northwest Negro Progress Number it issued in 1907, which number will be ready for distribution at the A.-Y.-P. Exposition and even before the gates of the exposition are thrown open to the general public. A competent force is now gatrehing facts for the next issue of the Negro Progress Number of the Northwest, and with the view of making it the best thing ever published in the interest of the Negro your aid is solicited.
That the public may get a complete yet correct idea of what the Negro is actually accomplishing in the Northwest it is hoped that every Negro will render the compiler of the Northwest Negro Progress Number, which will be issued about the middle of May, all the assistance within his or her power. It is generally believed that a great many Negroes from the East, South and North will visit Seattle during the lifetime of the exposition, and they will be pleased to get hold of some reliable statistics accurately stating the progress the Negroes of this section are making. If, therefore, you live in a neighboring city and know of any one there owning a home, write The Seattle Republican and make the fact known.
THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN.
Touching the Negro Progress Number issued by The Seattle Republican a few of the many hundred complimentary press and personal notices are requoted:
"The Northwest Negro Progress Number is par excellent. I am delighted."—Sergt. A. A. Houston, Spokane.
"Permit me to congratulate you on your splendid edition, the Northwest Negro Progress Number."—E. F. Myer, Bremerton.
"Your Northwest Negro Progress Number never had an equal so far as the Negro is concerned."—J. R. Hawkins, Winlock.
"If the colored folk do not appreciate a publication like your Northwest Negro Progress Number, it is quite evident that they are sadly lacking in appreciation."—Jas. A. Moore, of Moore Investment Company.

The following article concerns The Seattle Republican, published in the State of Washington. It has just issued its first number of its fourteenth volume. This number will make a worthy addition to any library. It contains 78 pages, and is filled with matter concerning the growth and progress
CUT OUT CLANNISHNESS
There is no excuse for clannishness among races or classes in the United States, for he or she who desires to do business and goes about the desire in a business-like manner will find it comparatively easy to do business with every other race or class of citizens in his or her immediate business community. That being a fact, any move toward clannishness on the part of any class, clique, clan, color or condition should be deprecated by the better element of any one or all of them. The colored man of the United States just now is riding the race hobby at a gait that would make J. I. C. hang his head in shame. The members of the African Methodist Episcopal Church have for their long suit this race hobby and work it overtime on members of another church who do not have "colored bishops." They, however, do not seem to practice what they preach, as the weekly organ of the connection has recently gone to the wall on account of non-support, and that, too, despite the fact there are over 800,000 actual members of the church; 8,000 preachers and with equally as many non-communicant sympathizers as lay members and preachers combined. If only the preachers of the connection subscribed and regularly paid one dollar per year for the paper that amount of money would have paid all the running expenses of the paper and allowed fully $3,000 per annum for the editor, and at the same time a better paper could have been turned out than has been in the past. Unless colored men learn themselves to see merit in the labors and efforts of each other, how do they expect other folk to do so. These folk advocate separate churches in order to get a square deal and yet they permit the organ of those churches they have built up on race prejudice to languish and fail because they are lacking in race pride to support them.
