GENERAL HARD TIMES Hard Times is a cry that is heard all over the state of Washington just now and it may be haard in other states the same as in this, but not having visited any of them the writer is not prepared to either affirm or deny. But whether in the fields, in the forests or in the factories everybody and his brother are hollering hard times and they have told this so much that they themselves really believe that the times are unusually hard with all classes in the Northwest, yet the commercial and savings banks of this section do not seem to bear out the hard times cry that all are so plaintiffly singing just now. A story is told of a boy who was set to watch a flock of sheep and in order to have a little fun he cried "wolf" and help came to his relief, but they found that they had been deceived. He repeated the joke a second time and again help came to his assistance to only find that they had again been deceived. The third day the wolf actually came, and though he shouted loud and long for help, none came and his flock was destroyed. If, therefore, the people are crying hard times for the fun of it, the time may come when hard times will come and no assistance will come to their appeal. Just how the citizens of this section can proclaim that Gen. Hard Times has captured the Northwest and especially the state of Washington, is rather a perplexing question, but they have done so to such an alarming extent that Gen. Prosperity, with all his army, has become thoroughly alarmed and has begun a hasty retreat. The man with money has heard in many places that hard times is stalking over the land, and he is either withdrawing his money from the banks or is letting it lay in the banks refusing to permit it to enter into commercial activity. The banks may be loaded down with currency but so many hard time stories are being told that they refuse to let it out without gilt edge security and thereby making it next to impossible to keep up commercial activity. Such a money stagnation gives the man with hordes of accumulated dollars neither worry or concern, but it means starvation to the working man and that includes the tradesman. Of course its for the means more money to the "pound of flesh" whelp to have hard times, for he profits from other's misfortunes, but to the truly humanitarian, who works on the theory that he is his brother's keeper, it is a calamity. But are there any hard times in this state at present is the question? After a careful study of the situation we believe we are safe in saying, there are not. That money does not seem quite as plentiful as it did a few months ago is admitted, and this, so far as the state of Washington is concerned is due to the fact that real estate gambling is not running riot as it was. Corner lots are not being bought today for an exagerated sum and sold tomorrow at a still more exagerated price, thus giving men the idea that they are millionaires, on which "watered" capital they try to live the life of real millionaires. Working men earn as good wages today as they did one year ago, but they too, have learned to live like at a millionaire pace and the wages they get today won't stretch over those ideas, hence he hollers hard times. The merchant has seen his rents doubled and trebled, the combines and trusts have raised the price of his wares for sale ten fold, and while he is selling as much he is simply the middle man and agent for the landlord and the trusts. It seems to us that for the past six years we have been traveling too fast, and having run down to an extent, as soon as we get our breath, holler hard times. How can there be such a thing as hard times in the state of Washington when everything the farmer, the horticulturist, the orchardist and the miner produces are sold at fancy prices. Millions of bushels of wheat and apples are raised in the state, which sell at fabulous prices. How can the owners of such crops be hard up? The owners of these crops are begging laborers and offering them greater wages than farm hands were ever known to get. How can that class of men be hard up? Every man and woman that want work in the state can find it if they but go where it is, and it does not require much hunting to find it. The farmers all over the state are selling their produce at fabulous prices then how can there be any hard times among them? It is said there are real hard times in the lumber industry of the state and yet one does not realize that there is if a bill of lumber is to be purchased. The logging laborers are for the most part out of employment owing to the lumber trust squeezing the consum- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1909 ers, but there is no trouble in the loggers getting other employment. The coal trust refuse to mine coal in a sufficient quantity that it might be sold at a reasonable figure to the consumer, and yet the miner is making as much money working half time as he formerly made working full time. The demand for laborers is greater at this time than in the history of the state and the wages are higher for that labor. If this be true, and it is, then how can there be such a thing in existence as hard times? In the city the cry of hard times is heard on every corner and yet more building is going on today than ever before in the history of the city. Workmen are in greater demand than ever before and like the employees on the farms and at the mines, wages a great deal better, but the hod carrier has learned to live at a pace that the mechanic should blush to think of and the mechanic is living at a pace that the contractor ought not to think of doing, and the contractor—well he is in the millionaire class. It will thus be seen that the alleged hard times in Seattle is nothing more or less than every fellow and his brother living beyond their incomes. Even the very city itself is living too fast. So fast is she living that taxes on property in which you reside is quite equal to high rent. Then add to the taxes the hundred and one special assessments and all the modern conveniences, and the man that owns a seven-room house in the city has more home expenses than if he were paying $30 per month rent. He of course has hoped to unload that on some unsuspecting tenderfoot and has failure so to do for the past twelve months has made him think the country is in the throes of hard times. It is safe to say that any hard times that may seem to be in this section at present is due wholly to the lull in real estate gambling and by no means from a scarcity of work or any general depreciation of wages or to a glut of the markets of the products of the land. While visiting a mining camp a few days ago the cry of hard times was heard so frequently among the miners that we were almost persuaded that hard times had really come again. On investigation however, it was found that the miner had formed a labor trust and had forced the price for mining coal so that they earned as much by working three days per week as they formerly got for working six days per week, and yet those men are complaining of hard times. They wanted six days work at increased pay as they had planned to buy many extras this year. To illustrate, the men when they worked six days per week earned on an average of $3 per day, making $18 per week, but they earn from $7 to $10 per day in and get but three days' work in a week, giving him on an average of $24 per week—$6 more than under the old system and yet he is not as well contented as he was when getting $18 per week. He figures it out that he is losing $24 per week because he is idle three days. And right here a short lecture to those miners might not be out of place. Put in your three idle days raising cabbage and potatoes—not wholly for yourself, but for the market. About the mines in question there are thousands of acres of good productive lands that could be farmed for the asking on which a miner by working at off days and hours could easily raise a couple of thousand bushels of potatoes and many heads of cabbage, which if he did not find a home market for, he could send to the larger cities and realize enough therefrom to make up the $24 he thinks he is losing by not getting steady employment in the mines. The man in the city who works but eight hours per day might take snatches of this lecture to himself. All over the United States there is a constant crowding to the cities on the part of the populace at the expense of the country districts, and not content with crowding into the cities when once in the city there is a constant crowding into the very heart of the city, which has called for immense apartment houses, and once in these the tenant is forced to pay trust prices for everthing on which he and his family subsists even to the very air he breathes, for if he wants outside apartments he must pay forty per cent more for them than the inside ones. The man may be earning big wages, but his expenses are so great that month by month he finds himself getting further behind. With neither land nor water on which to seek a bit of aid in the way of helping out. The wealthy city man is of course getting homes in the country and thus making it more impossible for the wage earner to acquire a piece of ground on which he can build a home or raise a partial amount of vegetables for himself and family. For the most part the country or farm lands in the LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 r t hwest are from twenty-five to fifty years behind the city and the poor man in the city seeks a lawn beautiful about his home instead of a garden valuable. City wege earners should seek homes in the suburbs and the lot on which their homes is built should likewise furnish them summer vegetables enough for all home consumption. Every man with an ordinary city lot, if given the proper attention, can make it produce more than half enough vegetables to supply the needs of his family. Hard times are common when there is either no work to be had, the wages so poor one can but eke out an existence on or when the products of the mills, mines and the farms either sell for so low a price that it does not pay to produce them, or worse still a glut on the market, which condition either in part or as a whole does not exist in the Northwest at present where there is such a general cry of hard times. As we see it the hard times that the people are suffering from at present are more because they desire to live beyond their incomes than on account of a shortage of wages, a scarcity of work or an over production. The clerk getting $20 per week who says he is suffering from hard times is generally living at a pace that only men getting twice his wages should expect to do. How a man getting $20 per week can expect to occupy $50 a month apartments and dress his family accordingly only a thief or a grafter can answer. The man getting from $15 to $25 per week who has a wife and one or two children shows that he has no financing ability when he sits down and depends on that amount to maintain his family without having some kind of a side issue to help out. Had the man a suburban home instead of an apartment home and then raise all of his vegetables and perhaps his chickens, he would have some money to invest instead of having to steal from his employer to keep up his false position. Its an unqualified mistake there are no hard times in the Northwest. OUR FEDERAL PATRONAGE Perhaps the oweers of the Post-Intellingencer are not not kictating the federal appointments for the federal appointments for the state of Washington and Alaska, but if they are not, then by mere chance some mighty good friends of the paper are being named for the positions by President Taft. There is hardly any doubt but that Harry L. Wilson will be named for the position of minister plenepotentiary to Mexico, a position that he has long coveted and which he will fill most admirably. His appointment is due largely to the fact that he is the brother of the owner of the P.-I. When E. C. Hughes was named for the position of federal judge in Western Washington it looked a good deal as though the fine Italian hand of the owner of the P.-I. was so close to the surface that its very shadow could be seen. When Mr. Hughes refused it and George Donworth was named he was just as acceptable to the owners of the P.-I. as was Mr. Hughes. Now comes the report that Walter E. Clark, the special Washington correspondent of the Post-Intelligencer, has been named for governor of Alaska. The owners of the P.-I. may not have been instrumental in all of the above appointments, but looks very much like it. The Hon. A. P. Sawyer, who has been in Washington City every since the inauguration of the Hon. William Howard Taft as president of the United States, returned one day last week and was delighted with his trip. Mr. Sawyer was born in the same town as was Mr. Taft and of course the two were playmates. Subsequently they both attended the same college and were graduated at the same time. After closing their school days Mr. Sawyer came West and Mr. Taft went to Cincinnati, Ohio. When Mr. Taft was visiting in Seattle last year he was for the most part the guest of Senator John L. Wilson and A. P. Sawyer. During Mr. Sawyer's stay at Washington City is said that he was frequently at the White House the guest of the President and his family. Former Senator John L. Wilson left one day last week for the East where he will remain for an indefinite period. "I may not be gone over four weeks and then I may be gone more than four months," laconically remarked Senator Wilson the day before he took the train for the East. While in the East Senator Wilson is booked to spend considerable time at Washington City where he will be the guest of President Taft and Secretary R. A. Ballinger. He will likewise be given a warm welcome by the Washington delegation and especially by Senator Piles of Seattle. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Eustace for King County.

Of course hogs are worth more than children judging by the sale price of the two. Now that H. H. Rogers is dead there is no doubt of him having to burn midnight oil. "Green Lake Church Makes Record," says a headline. An eight or a ten inch record? Mrs. President Taft coughed a few days ago and the Associated Press went into hysterics at once. No, dear reader, the extra session of congress has not adjourned as yet, but it has dropped into innocuous desuetude. Two brothers met in the county jail one day this week for the first time in ten years. Chickens will come home to roost. If the suicide crop continues as it has for the past ten days or more the attendance at the exposition will be noticeably lessened. "Cussin" is to be cut out in Wisconsin, which means that, "fighin" will flourish, for the man who cannot cuss will certainly fight. Walter Clark may be an awful good pencil pusher, but we doubt his ability to be governor of Alaska only as a tool of the other fellow. "Investigate my office," says State Auditor Clausen. Mr. Clausen seems more accommodating than some of the other state officials. With cement sidewalks extending from Seattle to Tacoma and from Seattle to Everett, Greater Seattle will soon be quite a berg. Seattle is without a dead line again. Just how "the fool and his money will soon part" under the circumstances is rather a puzzle. If Edward Corcoran ever sees the Sullivan estate distributed he will either live much into the next century or he will have to die and come back later on. In demanding that the Spokane officials be investigated it would appear that, the farmers of that county have more in their heads except hayseeds. These may be hard times in this section of the United States, but if they are they are brought on by extravagance rather than financial depression. Not being able to whitewash his friends in the legislative investigation Plinny Allen is trying to besmirch the reputations of innocent men, but Plinny is too well known for any one to take anything he does seriously. ```markdown ``` This ought to be a record year for circuses especially in Seattle, as the hayseeds will be here in countless numbers. When a man shoots a woman because he loves her and she does not love him he lies unless he shoots himself. If he loves her he should want to go right with her. It may be quite a pleasure trip for antomobilists to take between New York and Seattle, but we are not inclined to think that it will be taken by very many. Constant dry weather in Eastern Washington is responsible for a great deal of real estate changing hands all over that section without very much consideration. When Jim Drake is made marshall of Western Washington there will be Piles of Woodin politicians to add fuel to the flames for the defeat of the senior senator from Washington. We are of the opinion that the difference between maximum and minimum rates are railroad rates, which means all that a thing is worth for the railroad to haul it to its destination. After a careful examination the prison physicians have declared Capt. Haines sound. Of course he is sound for did he not kill Annis for criminal associations with his wife? Any man that will do that is sound as a silver dollar. "You'll Like Tacoma," says an invitation, which the Tacomaites will extend to the exposition visitors. You bet you will, if you happen to be good and tired, as you will be able to rest in Tacoma undisturbed by even a sound. There is no denying the fact that Larry Kelly is keeping his word to never earn an honest dollar, but it strikes us that he is not earning a dishonest dollar in view of the fact that he is always in a prison cell where it is impossible for him to earn any kind of a dollar. Ruth Bryan, so goes the story, is trying to build up the Democratic party, which is right and proper, since her father tore it down. The sins of the father shall be visited unto the children even to the third and fourth generation, so says the good Book, and here it is. Jack Johnson, the heavy weight boxing champion, played quite a-hide-and-go-to-seek game with Jack O'Brien last Wednesday evening in a six-round show fight. Johnson was reported "pussy" and showed a lack of training. Be careful, Mr. Black Jack, or your "good time" will land you in the pit of defeat. For the sake of a little fun at the expense of some Negro workmen the militia of Georgia fired into a work train and wounded two of the occupants. The soldiers were court martialed and fined $25, which was considered a travesty on justice by Governor Smith of that state, he claiming the punishment of the soldiers a thousand times more severe than the deed warranted. THE SATTLE REPUBLICAN It was from an Atlanta suburb that a telegraph operator, after a severe windstorm had passed over the place, wired to the associate press, "no damage done, but three 'niggers' were killed," all of which show how cheap human life in a black skin is held in Atlanta, Georgia. Down in Louisiana a colored man is congratulating himself for having made more money in one hour than he had ever made before. He was sentenced to serve one hour in the state penitentiary for manslaughter. When discharged he was given $5 and a full suit of clothes. "Come over to this country, Pat," wrote Mike McCartey to his brother in Ireland, "for wages are good and little work to do. All you will have to do is to carry a hod of brick to the top of a six story building and the other fellow does all the work." Sambo perhaps takes a like view of going to the penitentiary. The Daily Times last Tuesday evening ran a story to the effect that, the Hon. John L. Wilson might break into the senatorial race next year. It further stated that, the friends of Senator Piles were very much worried over the prospects of Senator Wilson becoming a candidate and had offered him many flattering political plums if he would refrain, none of which he seemed inclined to accept. Politically speaking Senator Wilson owes Senator Piles and his friends nothing except a political drubbing and it is more than likely that he will give them all that is coming. Not satisfied with conspiring against the aspirations of John L. Wilson the friends of Senator Piles went out of their way to abuse him like a pickpocket by day and by night and by such slanderous methods succeeded in defeating him and electing Piles to the United States senate. It is no longer in the hands of the politicians tricksters and railroad lobbyists to name the United States senator from Washington and of course the Hon. Samuel H. Piles and his friends are up against a hard political game and they know that John L. Wilson can make or break them, which has caused them to suddenly change their minds and see nothing but nice things in everything Wilson does. We do not say that John L. Wilson will be a candidate for the senate next year, but we do say that he will be very instrumental in electing a successor to Senator Piles. If he decides to throw his strength to Piles then Piles will succeed himself and of course some one else will be senator. Boosts John L. Wilson One of the strongest cards that an individual in political life can possibly play, is to be absolutely true to the men who gave him loyal support when that support was highly essential to success. A man in the political life may have scholarly attainments; he may be a brilliant stump speaker, possess a charming personality, but if the one essential qualification be lacking, that of being absolutely true to his friends, he can never be certain of his tenure of office. This qualification is possessed by at least one individual in the State of Washing- ton in a marked degree, and the man to whom reference is made is ex-Senator John L. Wilson. There is a man, who while occupying the exalted position to which the people of this commonwealth elected him, was never known to prove untrue to the men that assisted him when he needed assistance, and to this one qualification—that he possesses many others goes without saying—is in a large measure due Mr. Wilson's strong hold on the people. While on this subject it might not be amiss to declare that stranger things have happened in the state of Washington than that Mr. Wilson should again aspire to the exalted position he once before so ably filled. The Gazette-News will have something further to say on this subject in the near future. — Georgetown Gazette-News. Demands More Investigation The charges of graft made against Ex-Governor Mead and Auditor Clausen in the erection of the executive mansion by substitution of inferior and cheaper material than that provided for in the contract should be investigate thoroughly. These offices are still posing before the people as competent, honest and ambitious candidates for places of honor, power and public trust, and if they have been guilty of grafting or neglect of duty on so important a contract they should be punished and properly tagged for future public consideration. Auditor Clausen has been very particular on many minor bills that were of little concern to people generally. It will be interesting to persons having had small bills cut down to learn whether the Auditor has been as particular with larger accounts. It makes very little difference whether the state loses its money through neglect of duty or through deliberate thievery. The result is the same to the victim. The Hamilton vouchers and the executive mansion contract should prove the fitness or unfitness of both Mead and Clausen to continue in public life.—Chinook Observer. State House Laxity Investigation of the affairs of the state officers at Olympia by the legislative investigating committee has unearthed a condition little thought of at the time the committee was appointed against the will of at least a majority of the members of the legislature. It was first directed to the office of State Insurance Commissioner and from there into the office of Secretary of State, the latter has already resigned and the Insurance Commissioner is facing charges for the misappropriation of state funds. Now comes additional evidence of the laxity of the last administration in the arrest and imprisonment of Ortis Hamilton, former Adjutant General, on the charge of embezzlement of at least $20,000 from the military funds of the state, which he spent on a young widow of whom he became enamored. The latest development also involves former State Treasurer Mills, Ex-Governor Mead and State Auditor Clausen, who were all more or less lax in their work of auditing the vouchers of the military department. It FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1907 is surely a hard blow on the state of Washington that such a state of affairs should be possible. but as it is a fact there should be no let up in the investigation until every man who has in the past profited at the expense of the state shall be brought to a swift, sure and fitting justice—Goldendale Sentinel. State Is Fortunate The state of washington is indeed fortunate that a strong character was elected lieutenant governor at the last election. The investigation of state offices was brought about by the insistence of Gov. Hay. With a large business experience he was quick to see lax methods, if not criminal in intent. A press dispatch says that the governor favors stopping the investigation as soon as the secretary of state office is gone through with. It is to be hoped that this is not the governor's idea. If the office of any incumbent has been honestly administered a thorough investigation ought to be courted. It it is not or any investigation is opposed there is a public demand for an investigation. "A public office, a public trust," ought to be a living truism. The eyes of the nation are now on Washington. In the probe of public affairs Gov. Hay has placed himself in the same class with Gov. Hughes of New York, Hanly of Indiana, Folk of Missouri and La Follett of Wisconsin; men who have done much to purify civic administration and erect higher standards for those who are entrusted with public affairs. If these nooks are clean the public will be glad to know it. If not let them be made so. No party ties, no favorites, no friendships should intervene. The good name of the state is higher than any of these associates. Lincoln County Times. SEATTLE FLASHLIGHTS Seattle seems to have suffered from a series of murders and other kinds of violent deaths for the past ten days or more. Guggenheimer's Pathfinder car arrived in Seattle last Wednesday and was given a whiring welcome by the auto friends. Matthew Dow, the contractor of the Seattle armory, is being sued for the breakdown that that building suffered a few days ago. Phillip F. Kelley, one of Seattle's foremost business men, died last Tuesday. He was planning to leave for Europe when he was stricken. From a hotel standpoint Seattle is prepared to care for something like 50,000 guests per day, and with the aid of the homes not less than a hundred thousand can be housed per day. Emett H. Holmes, advance agent of the grand lodge of the A. F. and A. M. of the state of Washington, spent a few hours in the city last Wednesday making arrangements for the care of the members of the grand lodge, who will be in Seattle July 12th. Mr. Holmes thinks there will be a goodly number in attendance, and the most of them will be accompanied by their wives. There are two lodges in Seattle and it was thought by the members of the grand lodge that the local members of the order would make IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington for the County of Kingman, Idaho.

April 23—June 4, 1999 8 New York's Preeminence Among the many things that go to make New York the second, if not perchance the first city in the world, London being the only possible exception, are: Its 1,085 churches, 95 Baptist, 42 Congregationalists, 52 Jewish, 100 Lutheran, 128 Methodist Episcopal, 99 Presbyterian, 146 Protestant Episcopal, 227 Roman Catholics and 196 other denominations; its 20,839 factories employing 528,927 officials and wageearners; its prominent buildings, some of which are the largest, tallest and most costly in the world. Among these are the $10,000,000 custom house, the $1,200,000 sub-treasury and the $12,000,000 hall of records. The Church Street terminal in the largest office building in the world containing a floor space of 20 acres affording accommodations for 10,000 people.

Its large number of clubs and societies, aside from the hundreds ARE YOU A REPUBLICAN OR A DEMOCRAT? It Really Does Not Matter as What Follows May be Read by Prohibitionist or Woman Suffragist Most any man, either Democrat or Republican, would agree that protection was a good thing if he were the fellow that was protected. It is very simple and easy to understand, however, that protection may be had in other ways than the imposition of a Congressional tariff. Take for instance, any manufactured article that can be produced both on this coast and on the Atlantic coast at the same cost. It is as plain as day that now and for all time, the railroad freight charges on the hauling of the Eastern goods to this Coast is a perpetual tariff in our favor and that no living man can remove. Hence every Coast state, the Dakotas, Montana, the Rocky Mountain States, Western Canada and Alaska, will remain the perpetual market of Irondale. The steel mills at Irondale cannot hope of course to supply even a fraction of the enormous steel and iron demand of the Coast. The demand is increasing 10 per cent per annum. But this infinite demand does insure the operation of the steel mills at Irondale night and day, with big additions year after year. The point at this time is that Irondale will employ eventually thousands of workmen, and they with their families will comprise the inhabitants of what will be a large and flourishing city named Irondale, adjoining the steel mills on Port Townsend Bay. You have some idea what lots are worth in a large city? That is what they will be worth in Irondale a few years hence.

To be considerate. To endure success. To keep on trying. To avoid mistakes. To be a clean man. To obey conscience. To keep out of a rut. To forgive and forget. To profit by mistakes. To think and then act. To make the best of a little. To maintain a high standard. To subdue an unruly temper. To despise underhandedness. To recognize the silver lining. To shoulder a deserved blame. To smile in the face of adversity. To accept just rebuke gracefully. To value character above reputation. To discriminate between sham and real. But it always pays.
