The personel of the members of the committee for the most part is not such as to recommend it to the general public with any degree of approval that it will accomplish anything that those who worked the hardest to bring about the investigation desired. Speaking about the personel of the members of the committee leads the writer to speak for a second on that subject. State Senator Plinny L. Allen, who has been selected as chairman of the committee, is well known in Seattle, where he grew to manhood. Whether or not he is guilty of the accusation is perhaps a question, but he bears the reputation of being a man in whom not an ounce of political or publicconfidence can be placed. It has been the talk among the boys about town for many years that if you want a political trick turned, get Plinny Allen to do it. A number of politicians a few days ago stood discussing the investigating committee, and it was the consensus of opinion of those talking that, it was impossible for it to accomplish anything with a man like Plinny Allen at its head. Despite this unfavorable comment Allen may not be guilty of any wrong doing and may investigate the affairs of the various state offices with as much honesty of purpose as any man in the state. State Senator H. O. Fishback on the other hand bears the reputation of being one of the squarest men in the state, and it was common talk about the state house at the time the committee was named that all sides, so far as he was concerned, would get a square deal and that there would be no whitewashing done if he could prevent it. There is every reason to believe that he will prove the safety valve to the committee. Representative Wm. McMaster may be as honest as the days are long in summer, but he seems to be of a flighty, impetuous disposition and inclined to go off half cocked or that was the general impression formed of him as a member of the legislature. In whatever he believes he is correct, he becomes very much biased in it and is not willing to accord the other side fair treatment. Therefore, not much can be expected of him in the way of fair play unless the fair play is favorable to the side he represents. In other words McMaster was named because it was believed he stood for conviction, guilty or innocent. Representative Howard Taylor, judging from his actions in the legislature, is something on the order of McMaster, but more of the "me too" stripe. Everything he did in the legislature was purely of a selfish nature and done with the view of helping Howard Taylor in some way or other. In all the legislature there was not another man that showed as much narrowness in his legislative moves as did Howard Taylor. He is Howard Taylor --- Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents. A very rich woman while out riding perchanced to see a very poor woman gathering sticks for firewood and was moved with womanly symyathy to exclaim to her coachman: "As soon as we get home John and you put your horses away, come to me and get an order for a ton of coal for that poor woman." In the course of a few minutes after they had arrived to home John appeared for the order for the coal, but the rich woman had by that time basked herself by a warm fire, and replied to John's inquiry for the order: "I guess I will not send it, the weather has moderated." When the legislature was in session and things were all jumbled up together and there seemed to be no room for anything, Governor Hay was moved to help the legislature pass a bill ordering the sale of the capitol lands for the purpose of building a more adequate capitol, but when the legislature had adjourned and there was nothing but empty space all about the capitol building he seemed to have suddenly concluded, "we do not need any more space for state house purposes, there is nothing else but space in the present capitol building." Like the rich lady, the weather had moderated. Governor Hay knew then and knows now just exactly what the legislature meant when it passed the state capitol bill, and when he wrote to each member thereof for his opinion as to what he individually meant when he voted for the bill, Governor Hay himself is off his trolley or he thinks the members were off their trolleys. It was simply a grand stand gallery play and made for the purpose of attracting attention from him for his failure to vetoe certain appropriation bills passed by the late legislature and for which he is being mildly censured by the people and the press of the state just now. The accompanying picture is that of the present state house, which the opponents to the sale of the state lands for the purpose of completing the regular state capitol building, declare is fully adequate to accommodate the state as a capitol building for the next fifteen years, which may or may not be true, but for the sake of argument the point is granted. How long do those opponents of the bill think it will take to complete the building, the foundation of which is already up? To sell the lands and complete the preliminaries, to begin the work and finally to complete the actual erection of the building the greater part of the time will have been consumed. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that, the capitol commission, rush things as rapidly as it will or may, cannot complete the new building one day before it will be sadly needed for state house purposes. Governor Hay is too good a financier to not be able to see that it will be a great saving to the state to stop the present interest drain, which the tax payers are called upon to put up every year for the debt on the capital. The legislative investigation committee to look into the workings of the state offices and the various state institutions has begun to grind away, and as was predicted, the workings of insurance commissioner were the first to be looked into. In this office a peculiar if not strange condition presents itself to the committee, and it is that the commissioner himself admits everything that the committee is trying to fasten on him in the way of official mistake, and when the committee will have gone through this particular office it will have to report the very things the commissioner, in the very outset said, did actually exist. If the commissioner has violated any law, then thing for some one to do is to file a complaint with the prosecuting attorney of Thurston county and have him either call a grand jury or inform against him in the courts, and thereby save the state the expense of finding out by investigation what the commissioner has already confessed. There may be reasons for investigating other offices, but there certainly is none for investigating the office and official that pleads guilty before the charge before the court convenes.

CAYTON, Publisher not certain with which side he is really with in the fight, but in all probability he will manage to line up with the winner in due time to exclaim, "me too." While Representative Hubbel may be a man with as honest intentions as any man in the whole state, yet he was charged with having trained with the "wets" in order to get elected to the legislature and then voting with the "drys" after he got to the legislature, thereby completely reversing himself. If this accusation be true, then he is a man that is not to be relied upon. But even if he had not betrayed a trust as he has been accused of having done, he is a man that showed no ability at all to act in the capacity of a member of the legislature. It is very doubtful, if as a member of the committee he will be of any service toward either turning on or off the light. hed and unterrified Demohonor to what they are pleased to term "our patron saint Thomas Jefferson," but who in fact was not as much a Dem- Thomas Jefferson's Birthday Anniversary ocrat as Democracy is understood today as he was a Republican, and it is barely possible that he was not very much of either. Thomas Jefferson was one of the noble character of the infant days of the United States and he rendered his country valiant service, and that too, without much regard for party or section. His highest ambition seems to have been to serve well his country and to do those things that would redound to the greatest good to the greatest number, in which he was eminently successful, and his memory is deserving of everlasting praise by the citizens of the United States without regard to party, politics, creed or conditions. --- New Orleans regardless of its environments and its salubrious climate is making no numerical progress and very little, if any, commercial pro gress, as comes the report from there after a local census of the city had been completed. No city New Orleans is A Dead One in the United States is more favorably located and so easily approached by land and water as the Cresent City, and yet it is in a languid, listless state, gaining neither population or wealth. For the past ten years New Orleans has been the hot bed of anti-Negro progress, fearing, as she expressed it, the financial and political success of the Negro in any shape or manner meant social equality with the whites. This crusade against the black folks has been carried on to such a great extent that capitalists evidently feared serious trouble would sooner or later be the outcome, and so they have steered clear of New Orleans as a place of investment for their idle capital, which accounts for the torpid condition of one of the best located cities in all the United States. Here is truly a case of sowing to the winds and reaping a whirlwind. The sacrifice of many lives seems to be necessary to quicken public sentiment up to the point of demanding better protective laws against impending dangers. Such is the condition of afflairs relative to the au- Too Much Freedom To Automobiles tomobiles as they are now driven in our towns and cities. All other vehicles are driven under prescribed laws which the authorities see enforced, but the rich man's and likewise the stranger's auto has only to toot its horn and pedestrians flee for their lives or else get run over. A call for stricter rules well enforced should be the cry from all who believe in the rights of liberty and the pursuit of happiness. 自 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington for King County.

With "thirteen" jurors in a box to try Calhoun, the alleged San Francisco grafter, why is not that city in line for another mishap more disastrous perhaps than the late earthquake that shook her from center to circumference? After only three days of married life a Seattle woman became a raving maniac. Old grouch bachelors, who are opposed to taking the responsibility of a wife and family, now have another argument in their favor against getting married. It does not really matter how many blocks a policeman has to look over on the beat to which he is assigned, he does not look over any. A beat with only five blocks in it would for the most part be as sadly neglected as one with nine hundred blocks in it. Easter was simply "grand" and the ladies were quite equal to the occasion. It may not have been the original intention of those responsible for Easter ceremonies to make it a day of gorgeous display of fine clothes, but it is being done just the same. Governor Marshall, of Indiana, may be a Democrat and a Democrat of the old school, but Democrat though he is, he is not standing for Tom Taggart, the Indianapolis political Democrat boss to run gambling wide open at French Lick, a resort and a second Monte Carlo, his Democracy to the contrary notwithstanding, all of which must sound awfully strange to Tommy Taggart. An American has been made to believe that he really broke the bank at Monte Carlo, which was reported for no greater reason than to induce the hundreds of American suckers to try the game of breaking the bank and thereby lose every cent they have. A fool and his money soon part, and this is especially true of the average American traveling in Europe. Governor Hay seems to be in a hot box about what the legislature meant when it ordered the state capital built. Either the governor does not understand Mother English or he has worked himself up to the point to think the members of the legislature did not. Had Governor Hay used the same amount of precaution in considering the Wenatchee bridge graft that he is using in the building of the capital, he would have vetoed instead of approved of that $190,000 graft for a private concern. Why should the coming of any one else to the United States be detrimental to the common good of the country? Regardless of what nationality an emigrant may be, if the emigrant becomes an industrious, law abiding citi- zen, his presence in the country, whether in large or small numbers, should be no handicap either to the country or the individuals. The world was made for man and man has or should have the right to live in any part of it that he may see fit and where he prospers the best, and that too, without the interference from his fellow man. "Necessary Evils" "There are no 'necessary evils' in government," declares former Governor Joseph W. Folk, of Missouri, adding "that those who profited by abuses would shout the loudest in the denunciation of those who pointed out abuses." "Criminal wealth when assailed always tries to hide behind the skirts of legitimate business. The highest civic virtue is the overthrow of depravity. One of the obstacles to the progress of righteousness is the mistaken view that it injures a city or state to prosecute wrong doing. If patriotism could be made as aggressive as rottenness, the problem of good government would be solved. If corruption exists anywhere the people are to blame. If corruption is to be eradicated the people alone can do it. What is needed is more of the sort of patriotism that fights for city, state and country every day—that will go into battles of peace as well as battles of war. The most conspicuous municipal governments in the United States today are governments by the few and not by the people. Bosses usually are men of strong mentality but feeble morality, who have behind them the public service corporation and the saloon. They are the connecting links between the criminal rich and the criminal poor. They rule because the people do not rule." Facts and Fancies Mr. Sully, once known as a cotton king, proposes to save Southern planters $250,000,000 annually. Of course he will expect a commission. The end of the world has been set for 1914. Naturally people setting it retain the right to change the date. Mr. Patrick, of New York, displays such anxiety to go to the electric chair that the public is beginning to see excellence in the idea. Going the millionaire pace on $1000 income may be easy, but the road is short. Ice is to cost more, on the theory that people will pay more than go without. J. J. Hill is reported as optimistic. Must have gotten his share of the earth when he and Harriman divided it. The liquor act is accused of "having a snake in it." For the matter of that, so is the liquor. Boss Cox, of Cincinnati, was caught playing dice. The police were so astonished at finding him engaged in a game so innocent that they failed to arrest him. Doubtless the arrest of blind beggars is an occasional necessity, but the policemen who have it to do, do not feel entitled to medals. THE SATTLE REPUBLICAN Warning to a Republican Congress Does the Republican party want to lose control of the House of Representatives in the election of next year, and cripple Mr. Taft before his term is half over? In preparing the new tariff, Chairman Payne and his associates are compelled to meet two demands. To those industries which need protection they must give a rate which is adequate. They must provide for a revenue far in excess of that of the present year. Each of these requirements was met fairly well by the present tariff when it was enacted in 1897, but the changes in business conditions in the past twelve years have rendered a reshaping of the schedules imperative. The Republicans recognized this necessity in their platform of 1908. In calling the new Congress in extra session on March 15th, President Taft carried out the platform promise. Except in 1897, this was the first time in which the Republicans, in reviewing a tariff, were compelled to keep revenue needs in mind. But this necessity at present is immeasurably greater than it was twelve years ago. While the treasury deficit was $18,000,000 in 1897, when Mr. McKinley entered office, it will be at least $120,000,000 for the year which ends on June 30th, 1909, four months after Mr. Taft's accession. When a man or a firm in private business finds income falling short of outgo, the outgo is cut down. But to this elemental demand of financial common sense Congress gives no heed. In the recent regular session it expanded the appropriations to unprecedented dimensions, these appropriations being for the fiscal year which begins on July 1st, 1909. Even allowing for an improvement in business in the interval which would largely increase the government's income, the deficit for the year which begins on that date will be in the neighborhood of $140,000,000 or $150,000,000 unless new sources of taxation are invented. Here is a double peril for the Republican party. If the treasury shortage for the year which begins on July 1st, 1909, should be anything like $140,000,000, the Republicans will be on the defensive in the congressional campaign which begins just as that year closes on June 30th, 1910. The Democrats will be furnished with an argument which they can use with destructive force in the canvass. If, on the other hand, the Republicans are compelled to provide new sources of taxation, they can also be hit by the Democrats. New taxes are endurable in time of war, but levied in peace days, as now, it will be difficult for the Republicans to defend them. If the Republicans re-impose the stamp and other taxes of the Spanish war days, they will lose many seats in the congressional election, and, conceivably, could lose enough to put the Democrats in power in the House of Representatives for the second half of Taft's term. We hope the President will bear this fact in mind. The party which holds the presidency always loses some seats in the House in the election which comes in the middl of the president's term. Sufficient were lost in 1874, 1882, 1890, and in 1894 to put the other party in control. Thus Grant, (in his second term), Arthur, Harrison and Cleveland (in his second term), had the House of Representatives against him. Let the Republicans remember that while Mr. Roosevelt, in 1905, started out with a Republican majority of 114 in the House, Mr. Taft's lead in that chamber is only forty-six. A comparatively slight set back might give the House next year to the Democrats. The Republicans should be very cautious about imposing war taxes in time of peace. While they have carried the House of Representatives in every election since 1894, and beginning with that year, and while they have had a long succession of victories for President, they are not invincible. If adequate provocation be furnished, the people might be tempted to turn them out and give the Democrats a new ttial. A very difficult and delicate task is before the Republican tariff framers at this moment, and we commend these facts to the careful consideration of President Taft, Vice-President Sherman, Speaker Cannon, and the other Republican leaders at Washington. — Leslie's Weekly. Bishop Hamilton on Miscegenation But a few days ago and the newspapers of the land, and especially the daily newspapers on the Pacific Coast were filling space with yellow journal accounts of a white girl having married a Japanese, and even until yet distant rumblings of Mr. and Mrs. Aoki are heard. Now comes Bishop John W. Hamilton of the Methodist Episcopal church with the following startling announcement: "I am going to say something that will astonish you all. There is no necessity for having home and foreign missions. They are all the same. You women are destined to be the great-great grandmothers of the conglomeration of the Chinese, the Japanese and of every other race of the earth as they now mingle in America. This is inevitable. I do not advocate it, but I do say that Jesus did not suffer more for one man than another. "The people of the lower classes will mix and mingle. It cannot be prevented nor can the habits of the vicious aristocratic classes. This will result in the intermingling of all the human races, which will reduce the number of races on the globe to one. The only hope for this conglomerate race is the church of God. We must fit the members of all these alien races for further membership in the big family." When further questioned as to whether he favored the mingling of the races, he replied: "It is none of my business. There is so much crime and wrong doing going on, which we may deplore but cannot-help." In discussing the relations in this country between the white man and the black man, he said: "I do not advocate social equality. That is a matter which will take care of itself. But if a white man chooses to eat with FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1909 Negroes in his own house or in company, it is his own business, and it would be a piece of the grossest impertinence for any one to object. "I myself once dined with a Negro, a doctor of divinity, who was my guest in a hotel. An impudent young man swaggered up behind the table and inquired of the waiter what 'that nigger' was doing there. I sprang to my feet, told him who I was and inquired if he wished to speak to me, but he ran away like a shot to the other side of the room. "I know a Chinese preacher in San Francisco who had a white wife. She is everything that a preacher's wife should be. Their married life leaves nothing to be desired. Things like this contribute to the solidarity of the race. "However, we have nothing to do with these matters — with equality of the races and intermarriage. It is too much trouble to interfere with another man's martial affairs. But we have to do with the idea of one man getting the idea that he is so much better than his fellow man. I will probably be misrepresented on this subject, but I cannot help it, for it is discrimination before God to which I refer. There are other inequalities than those of race." When all of us learn to take as liberal view of this question as Bishop Hamliton then there will be a millenium not far ahead. Uncle Sam is destined to become the father of a people in in whose veins courses the blood of all nationalities, and that people will be the most powerful people physically, intellectually and otherwise, that has ever inhabited the globe. To even want to establish a consumptive camp in the midst of a resident portion of the city is criminal in its very idea to say nothing of actually establishing the camp. The residents of Queen Anne Hill should not only register their protests, but should defend their rights by force if need be to prevent such an outrage. When residents of another section of the city are going to court to prevent a man of a different race from themselves building an elegant residence among them, then the residents of Queen Anne Hill have a hundred times more legal rights to not only try to prevent by law but by big, armed force the bringing of diseased patients among them. Sickly sentiment is making herculean efforts to prevent Pioneer Place from being converted into a rest station for the convenience of the general public. As a beauty spot there is no denying the fact that Pioneer Place, being as it is in the heart of the city, the none such, but beauty spots are not to be considered when convenience spots are wanted. As it now stands the only place a stranger can find a lavartory is in some saloon and strangers do not always feel inclined to take advantage of the open invitation of saloons to use even their conveniences. By all means lets have the rest station at Pioneer place, and we further suggest that Fortson Place likewise be converted into a rest station, and still others would not be out of place. FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1909 BENCH AND BAR. NOTES OF IMPORTANT DECISIONS Elections - Illegal solicitation of campaign funds. It is surprising how much money the people are urged to contribute to each of the two great political parties in order to prevent the other from securing most of their votes with which to ride into power and to crush under the iron heel of oppression the rights of the common people. Our last clause is the usual peroration of the Democratic and Republican orators which we have now come to accept with patient resignation. But patience ceases to be a virtue with us when year after year we are assessed for contributions to convince the other fellow while at the same time the other fellow is likewise importuned for funds to convince us. When we and the other fellow, especially if we be office holders, get together, this little one-sided game of chance is declared off and a law is passed prohibiting the solicitation of campaign funds among certain employes of the government. All such laws are in the interest of a sound public policy and should be liberally construed in favor of the fellow who has spent all of his money in obtaining an office and then is asked to mortgage his debts in order to keep it. We commend therefore, the decision of the United States District Court in the recent case of United States v. Smith, 163 Fed. 926. In this case defendant was indicted under the federal statute for soliciting in the postoffice at Clanton, Ala., a contribution of money for a political purpose from the postmaster. It appeared that defendant was the Republican committee chairman of the county, and that he was conducting a political campaign there. He wrote letters in his office to a number of persons, including the postmaster, soliciting campaign contributions, and after putting them in envelopes, and sealing and addressing them, took them to the postoffice to stamp and mail. While stamping the letters in the postoffice, the postmaster came into the room and spoke to him. Defendant thereupon handed him the letter addressed to him, saying, "This will save a stamp." He took the letter, and defendant, without advising him as to its contents, immediately left the postoffice, not having in any way solicited any contribution except by the sealed letter. The court held that a verbal solicitation was not necessary to constitute the offense on the ground that the statute forbids the solicitation in any manner whatever, and, therefore, the solicitation was complete and the statute was violated when the letter was handed to the postmaster. Constitutional law-Indefinite in fixing the offense in a criminal statute. Against many of our criminal laws the charge of indefiniteness is often made. And in many cases the charge is well founded, until today in many states a citizen is not only presumed to know the law but also what the legislation intended to prohibit or what the courts may say the legislation intended. This is very unsatisfactory, but is only exceeded when the legislature adds to this uncertainty the interference of some court's idea determining agency in fixing the crime, so that the citizen must not only know the law or what the legislature intended by the law or what the courts shall say that the legislature intended but must also know at their peril what the courts shall say that the legislature intended for certain outside organizations to do before the definition of the crime shall be definitely fixed. This was the situation confronting the Supreme Court of Montana in the recent case of State v. Holland, 96 Pac. Rep. 719, which involved the construction of a statute which provided that any person who shall wear or use the insignia or ceremonials of any society, order or organization of ten years' standing in the state, unless entitled to use or wear the same under the constitution or regulations of such organization, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Appellant contended that this law was unconstitutional as it enabled the organization to fix the offense, thus delegating to it the exercise of powers rightfully belonging to the legislature. Thus a citizen was unable to ascertain from the statute what he was prohibited to do, but had to gain such information from the regulations of a secret society which were closed to him. To avoid the penalty of the statute he had to keep himself posted as to the changes in such societies. The Supreme Court of Montana held that as the legislature declared the prohibition and provided the penalty for its violation, but left it to the societies to supply the description of the violated ritual, the statute was unconstitutional. Central law Journal. U. S. District Attorney Joseph B. Keating, of Indiana, recently resigned his office rather than assist in an attempt by the government to remove the case of criminal libel against the Indianoplis News, from Indiana to Washington City for trial. Keating contended that defendants had a right to a trial at home. It will be remembered that this was one of the contentions made by our forefathers when Great Britain was in the habit of carrying them across the ocean to be tried upon criminal complaints. Mr. Keating is evidently one of those prosecutors who thinks it more important to have justice dealt out fairly than to lose a case—a prosecutor who remembers that a defendant has some rights and is entitled to some consideration even though the prosecutor might get more yellow journalism advertising by conducting himself as a persecutor instead of a legitimate prosecutor as contemplated by law. Regardless of the merits of the case, the average American citizen will respect the prosecuting attorney who had the courage to resign his office rather than be a party to depriving a fellow human being of rights which he believed him to possess — even though temporarily under the cloud of a criminal charge. The right of a state by statute or a municipality by ordinance to regulate the speed of automobiles seems to be clearly rec- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN [Name not provided] [Name not visible in the image] JOHN H. SCHIVELY Insurance Commissioner, whle legislative committee and Stock Insurance Association of the Grand Jury now in session thougnized by most of the courts that have passed on the question. Efforts have been made to show that such statutes were invalid because they did not apply to other vehicles. But an automobile is different from the usual vehicles found ordinarily upon highways, and its operatian occasions dangers peculiar to itself and makes it a proper subject for consideration by the legislature under the police power of the state. The cases of Bellingham v. Cisna, 44 Wash., 397; State v. Smith, a Rhode Island case and State v. Swaggerty, a Missouri case, all deal in an interesting manner with this question. The necessity for such regulations is deeply impressed by the number of accidents occasioned by the machines. Recent Deaths of Noted Persons. Governor Samuel G.

Wit and Humor A Boston lawyer tells this story on another lawyer named Ames, who was retained as counsel for a man who stepped in a hole in the street and broke his leg. Suit was brought against the city in the sum of $100,000. and Ames won the case. The city appealed to the supreme court, but here also the verdict was in favor of Ames' client. After settling up the claim, Ames handed his client a silver dollar. "What is this for?" asked the man. "That is what is left after taking out my fee, the cost of appeal and other expenses." The man regarded the dollar a moment, then looked at Ames. "What's the matter with this?" he asked. "Is it bad?" Three colored men were discussing the intelligence of different animals. One favored the dog, another the horse; but old Peter Jackson said: "In my opinion de goat am de 'tellingentest critter livin.' De goat kin read. I saw him do it.

Hopkins, Deceased, 114 N. Harvard Ave., Feb. 19—March 19, 1909. 8 He Owed a Negro That associate press dispatch last week that told of a constable, an attorney and a lot of workmen, who went to the home of a Federal judge and dismantled it under a judgment execution regularly issued out of the courts of that state, did not seem to think that the law had in any way been violated, but the outrage of the matter was, a Negro held the judgment, and it was to satisfy his judgment that the house was disrobed of all of its belongings. Why should there be any more indignation among the members of the bar for the judgment held by a Negro being satisfied than if the judgement had have been held by the governor of the state or some banker? The whole affair seemed to us the most ludicrous piece of information that the associated press has ever sent over its wires. So ludicrous was it that, the Seattle Daily Times, as big a fool as it is, editorially had the following to say on the subject: "A federal judge in Atlanta is very much exercised over the fact that a Negro who held an unsatisfied judgment against him dismantled his home of its furniture. It would seem that the judge should have looked after the matter in the proper way and the fact that the man to whom the judgment was given was a Negro has no bearing upon the subject. Of course we must allow something for the fact that the occurrence had its scene in Georgia, but from the facts at hand, we cannot see how the fault does not rest with the judge rather than with the Negro." Its just such contemptible articles as this dispatch that keeps a continued strife going on between the white and black folk of this country. Federal judge though he was he should have no more legal rights than any one else, and the law should have compelled him to satisfy a Negro's just claim against him the same as it would have that of the most influential banker in the country. Freedom It is of consequence that the notion of freedom be within us. It does make a difference. How many pass through life oppressed by the idea that we are slaves dominated by environment and influences that are fixed, and are no different from the inanimate things about us. It makes a difference if we believe ourselves not slaves to circumstances, not with characters inevitably fixed, and can look into the possibilities of the future and draw strength from them. We may then be master's of life's field - Prof. Palmer in Boston Transcript. When you want to insure with a reliable firm, call on E. W. Way & Co.

THE FASHION WEEKLY 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. 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. Selma Herman The Seattle Theatre has the best star actress and stock company of associate players that has ever been brought to Seattle for a lengthy engagement. Miss Selma Herman is an actress comparable with no stock leading woman that has ever played here, if her Gloria Quayle in "The Christian" this week is not a pace-maker, and she says it is not. The lady doubtless knows her capacity and prefers PROGRESS OF NORTHWEST NEGRO TO BE EXPLOITED PROGRESS OF NORTHWEST NEGRO TO BE EXPLOITED THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN ```markdown ``` other parts, but how the part she is playing this week could be improved upon by any other actress is difficult to imagine. If there is any defect in it they are visible to the seasoned critic. So many things have been said about Miss Herman that the patrons of the Seattle Theater expected her to be out of the ordinary. She is. She is in a class with the best star actresses now playing in this country, and she possesses youth, good looks and intelligence that will lead her high up in the archives of fame if she PROGRESS OF NORTHWEST ERO TO BE EXPLOIT continues before the public. "The Christian," the play this week, is more of a man's play; that is the men of the company have more prominent parts than the women. Mr. McCullough, the leading man, plays quite as good a John Storm as any other actor ever seen here in the part. Mr. Otto, who plays Lord Robert Ure, and Robert T. Holden, in the character of Horatio Drake, come to the front quite prominently as the star does this week. Miss Herman's company is not only the biggest and best stock company west of Chicago, but to compare it with any other would be like comparing a diamond brooch with a lead one. "The Christian" continues all this week. Next week commencing Sunday matinee, Miss Herman and her associate players will produce for the first time outside of New York City that great artistic success from the Garrick Theater last season, "The Little Gray Lady." The play deals with semi-official life in Washington, D. C., i, e., with the employes of the Redemption Department, and the audience will have the first opportunity to view the inner workings of Washington, D. C., boarding house society, not as it was but as it is today. As Anna Gray (the little gray lady), Miss Herman will have a better part than she has this week. He—I wonder how long you could live without money? She — Oh, until you needed something. FRIDAY. APRIL 16. 1909 W. H. FINCK Pioneer Jeweler and Watch Maker.
