Seattle Republican

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents. "Perhaps this is partially due to the fact that Susie Revels Cayton has been associate editor and publisher of the Republican," says the Times in commenting on the life of The Seattle Republican and the fact that it has not missed an issue since it made its appear- missed an issue since it made its appearance to fill a "long felt want." Not partially due, but we ourselves sometimes think wholly due to that fact, for bless her heart, she has for all these years stood like a stone wall by our side and some times when the battle for existence was so severe that to live through it seemed more than human, she never waivered. No man or woman has a right to complain of the natural battles of life, for whatever is is, and the natural battles of life she and both of us have met with unflinching nerve, but that unnatural battle of life, of which a great majority of the citizens of the United States do not have to contend with defenseless and armless, we have fought as best we could and left the results in His hands, but whether natural or unnatural, the woman, the associate hereof and likewise the life partner of the editor, has more than borne her part. The woman who works on and on amid privations not only for herself but for her little ones and yet always sees victory ahead is the woman that not only makes husbands men in the true sense of the word, but who makes the men and women of tomorrow. The woman who can jot down a note or an article while the baby is soothed to sleep or while the dinner cooks and thereby hold up her end, and at the same time always having a stock of love and tenderness for the discouraged man is the woman that rules the world. All honor is due to such women and we therefore wish to enter a plea of guilty as charged. Rumor has it that Insurance Commissioner John. H. Schively will step down and out of the office just before the extra session of the legislature assembles in August. For some time, so goes the story, Mr. Schively has been contemplating such a move, but had hoped to Will Schively Stand Trial. get the promise of the state authorities that they would use their influence with the prosecuting attorney of Spokane to have the criminal cases now pending against him at that place dismissed before resigning, but whether or not the authorities have done as Mr. Schively requested is a secret of theirs, but rumor has it that Gov. Hay refused to interfere in the Spokane cases and will let the law take its course so far as he is concerned. It is the concensus of opinion in Seattle that Mr. Schively has not one chance in a hundred in escaping impeachment whea the legislature meets. Are all men more or less corrupt? Are all men ready to sell their honor and manhood if they get their price? These questions are prompted from Seattle Councilmen the fact that there is so much talk Become Personal. about the city of public graft. Two members of the city council ex- changed compliments while a committee of that body was in session and the compliments were of the kind that an honest man does not appreciate and of the kind that a dishonest man gets uneasy when he feels the other fellow has found him out. The tempest in the tea pot arose out of the fact that one member of the council charged another with representing a client before a council committee on matters that he himself would finally have to pass upon. In other words it is charged that this is but another form of grafting so common to the men elected to public office all over the United States. Graft in some form or another always manages to show up and sooner or later you will find men doing the petty graft act that you had decided in your mind were far above such. The disease of graft has become so common that men worth thousands of dollars will work grafts if they get in a position to do so. Labor unions to the contrary notwithstanding, Seattle's Welcome Arch is now a thing of beauty and to the most of us a joy forever, or at least as Welcome Arch long asit lasts. It has been completed and Most Beautiful makes a most magnificent appearance. The motto of the arch is Keep The Pot Boiling and to that end steam cauldrons have been placed on the top of each pier and steam rolls out of them day and night. This is a splendid motto for Seattle and it is to be hoped that she will continue to keep the pot boiling in the future just as she has in the past. But the idea has not been given very much publicity and many of the Seattle people are much exercised to see smoke coming from the top of the arch and so exercised did Mr. Compton, a well known real estate man become, that he rushed down to the fire alarm box and turned in an alarm, which in a very few seconds brought the whole department to the arch and there he stood anxiously awaiting SEATTLE. WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1909 Susie Roele Cayton the chief's arrival to point him out the fire, which he did and was almost ready to jump into the bay to soak his head, when he was informed that the steam coming from the arch was a part of the show. Among the notable gatherings that will meet in Seattle this year is the American Civic Alliance, which holds its first session August 8th. This Alliance is not much known of in this section of the United States and that being a fact it might not be out of place to give the readers hereof a brief idea of the objects and aims of the Alliance, which are as follows: Membership in the Alliance is limited to four thousand leading citizens throughout the United States who have gained public confidence and esteem, and the purpose is to form a non-partisan body representative of the best intellect and conscience of the nation, which shall provide for the establishment and maintenance of a scientific institution for the study and practical working out of political problems on local, state and national questions, and by its aid become the most influential factor in the formation and direction of sound public opinion, thereby reinforcing our government through political parties and placing it on a sounder and more scientific basis. This paper has been charged by a contemporary with having traduced John E. Humphries. We deny the allegation and defy the allegator for the reason, we do not believe such a thing possible. The same contemporary declares the editor of this paper is pining to be a "white man." If all white men are of the stripe of the editor of the Argus, then again we deny the allegation and defy the allegator. To be a "white man," we admit, is quite an honor and especially in the United States, but we are of the opinion that the editor of the Argus knows no more about such a sensation than does the editor of The Seattle Republican. Just why the editor of the Argus can not enter a political discussion without pulling the white women into it is more than the editor of The Seattle Republican is able to answer. Either he has not the ability to handle public questions or he hides behind some woman's skirts for the purpose of getting sympathy for his tommy rot. Be a man or a mouse and if you are too ignorant to meet those you would oppose, then keep your mouth closed and the world is not so apt to find out that you are both a fool and a knave. Rumor has it that J. M. Snow, the state highway commissioner, has been given his walking papers by Gov. Hay and that August 1st he will step down Olympia Politics and out and will be succeeded by Prof. By an Observer. Bolin, who has held a chair in the State University of Washington. "I do not think Gov. Hay will ever appoint P. L. Allen state printer for the reason he would not make anything by so doing. There is no doubt of the fact that the governor is under many obligations to S. A. Perkins and there is no doubt of the fact, at least in my mind, that Perkins is interested in the state printing office and if Gov. Hay should remove Boardman from the office it would give Perkins offense and would precipitate a fight between Gov. Hay and Perkins, a thing Gov. Hay is not looking for," came from a well known politician one day this week. State Library UBLICAN Volume XVI, Number 9. H. R. CAYTON, Publisher It is being said on very good authority that neither W. H. Snell, J. H. Easterday, J. M. Ashton nor W. H. Paulhamus will be candidates for the seat in the house of representatives of Congress made vacant by the death of Francis W. Cushman at neither the special nor the general election. Snell will not enter the race because he wants to go to the senate and thinks he has a chance, but he has not. J. H. Easterday will not go into the fight because he thinks he would be slaughtered outside of Pierce County, but that is doubtful. J. M. Ashton will not go into the fight because he is short of the coin on which to make the fight. He is sensible. W. H. Paulhamus will not go into the fight because he is not certain that he would have Pierce county behind him, the Perkins Press to the contrary notwithstanding. He is right. With those eliminated from the fight it looks as if Ed Cushman, B. W. Coiner and Lincoln Davis will be the men from whom Pierce county will have to make a selection. Cushman's successor will have to be nominated by convention and according to the last state convention Pierce would have seventy delegates in such convention, which would be about one-third of the convention and with that lead it would be an easy matter for her to make combinations and win her candidate out. Whether or not such candidate would win out at the polls would be a question, but he would certainly get the nomination. A number of candidates from the southwest continue to bob up serenely, but none of them have developed any great amount of strength. State Senator Ruth has not yet declared his intention of standing for the nomination and not only has not announced his intention of standing for the nomination, but he is inclined to be against it. The friends of John L. Wilson of Seattle are grooming him to deprive Sam Piles of his seat in the United States Senate next year. Wilson used East Side Jones to beat his old-time political enemy, Levy Ankeny, last year, and his success was so overwhelming, to Ankeny, that he is minded to tackle the political buzz saw again. Wilson has a strong following, but he also has more bitter enemies than any other individual in the political arena of this state, and the struggle for the seat now occupied by Senator Piles will make the famous battle of the Kilkenny cats seem like the cooing of a pair of turtle doves. —Colton News Letter. Dr. David Starr Jordan, president of Leeland Stanford University of California and international fish commissioner, appointed by President Theodore Prominent Roosevelt, and accompanied by Prof. Edward Persons. E. Prince of the Dominion of Canada, a like commissioner appointed by King Edward, which commission was appointed to formulate laws to regulate the fishing industry as it affects the two countries, spent a few days in Seattle this week. Frank W. Benson, who at present is both governor and secretary of the state of Oregon, has declared that he would not run for governor in 1910, but would ask to be re-elected secretary of state. Harriet Post, the daughter of Frank T. Post of Spokane, who has been selected to draw from the box containing the seekers of homesteads on the reservations that are to be given to actual homesteaders, is visiting in Seattle. Harriet is but twelve years of age. Charles E. Claypool, for four years state senator in the state of Washington, but who for a number of years has been seeking a fortune in the heart of Alaska, is returning to the state and announced by cablegram that he would be a candidate for representative in congress from the Second congressional district. Dr. Susan La Flesche Picottee is the name of the first Indian woman to take a regular course in medicine. She is a graduate of Hampton and likewise of the Woman's Medical College of Philadelphia, Penn. The officers-elect of the National Editorial Association are: A. Nevin Pomeroy, Pennsylvania, president; J. P. Baungartner, California, first vice president; R. E. Dowdell, South Dakota, second vice president; F. P. Hall, New York, third vice president; A. D. Mofett, Indiana, and W. F. Parott, Iowa, corresponding secretaries; R. H. Walker, Alabama, recording secretary, and Will A. Steel, Washington, treasurer. John W. Slayden is politically ambitious and is very desirous of representing the district in Congress, but it is not very generally believed that he would give Pierce county the service that some of the other men mentioned in this connection could do, and he would hardly get the support at home that Ashton or Paulhamus would get. --- INTHE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE Stato of Washington, im and for King county, James P, Johnson, Plaintiff. vs, Mag- Galena R.

About sixteen years ago, a man by the name of Cayton began the publication of "The Seattle Republican"and hasn't missed a number since. Perhaps this is partially due to the fact that "Susie Revels Cayton" has been the associate editor and publisher of The Republican. Occasionally the proprietors of The Republican issue a special number, partially for "profit," but more largely for "educational" purposes—and such a number has just made its appearance. This special number is in magazine form—consisting of more than sixty pages all told—printed upon excellent paper and containing many half-tones of superior excellence, not only from a photographic standpoint, but from the standpoint of good printing. There are many articles of interest contained in this special number—but the one that strikes us most forcibly is the leader entitled "Northwest Negro Progress." Among other points made in this leader is the one calling attention to the number of colored people in Seattle who own homes already constructed-or lots upon which homes are to be constructed in the future. There are one hundred and forty-eight names published, together with the valuation of each property—and many photographs of homes completed. In glancing over the values, only six pieces of property out of the entire list are below $1,000 in value—and those range from $300 to $750 each. There are dozens of properties ranging in value from $1,000 to $1,500—scores of properties ranging from $2,000 to $4,000 in value—six properties of the value of $10,000 each—three properties of the value of $15,000 each—one of $16,000—two of the value of $20,000 each—one of the value of $30,000, and one of the value of $50,000. This information alone will be a great surprise to most of the readers of The Times because it indicates a thriftiness on the part of the colored people not generally understood. Half-tones of the homes of colored people in other cities of the state are also given, together with pictures of lawyers, preachers, teachers, contractors and builders all of the colored race. Indeed if one wished to preserve such a sketch of the colored people of this city in particular, it would be wise to lay aside a copy of the Northwest Negro Progress Number of The Seattle Republican.—Seattle Daily Times. There is no denying the fact that the financial outlook does not look out very often on those who need finances the worst. "Let us have peace," exclaimed Gen. Clement A. Evans, a Confederate veteran, as he shook the hands of Gen. Frederick D. Grant, a son of the immortal U. S. Grant. That's what the men of the north have been asking for ever since and even before the war. Mr. Trust Magnate in Congress with Aldrich and Uncle Joe has been likened to Daniel in the lions' den, and while the Trust Magnate will come out no less harmed than was Daniel, yet the Republican party is digging its own grave. Senators Jones and Piles believe that the place left vacant by the death of Representative Cushman should be filled soon as possible. Senator Jones has Gov. Hays favoring the immediate calling of an election. As there are numerous matters in the district that need attention it is thought best to have an election so that there may be some one to attend to it. This age is money mad. Men go on year after year, piling up great fortunes that they cannot use, leaving behind them millions of dollars for relatives to quarrel over and children to squander to their ruin and degradation. The best heritage that one can leave a child. is a strong body, a head full of useful information and a heart full of love and human sympathy. Life is so very short that every person should strive in every way to scatter as much sunshine and happiness as he can. There are so many ways that this can be done with very little effort, that it seems that no one has a reasonable excuse for neglecting to do so. Kindness, love and sympathy is cumulative. The human heart is a wonderful instrument. A doll to a child, a few moments devoted to the old and the decrepit, a cheerful word to the sick, a warm handelasp to the downeast, a few flowers to those who cannot buy them, a little self sacrifice and the heart expands and as the little ministrations send back their sweet vibrations they grow and reach out just like ripples made upon the surface of a limpid stream by the dropping of a beautiful flower from a bending bough. NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE. The 9th annual convention of the National Negro Business League, which is to be held at Louisville, in "old Kentucky," Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 18, 19 and 20th, promises to be one of the most interesting and best attended conventions that has been held since the organization of the league at Boston, nine years ago. The stimulating effect upon Negro business enterprise which this League has been exerting under the direction of Dr. Booker T. Washington and his official staff has been clearly seen and appreciated and, in part, explains the League's constantly increasing membership. The League welcomes to its membership every man and woman of the race who is engaged or interested in some worthy Negro business enterprise and only a nominal charge of $2 per year is expected from each member, which membership fund is used in prosecuting the work and extend- BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. THE SATTLE REPUBLICAN BOOKER T. ing the influence of the organization; this membership fee of $2 also procures for each delegate a badge which entitles the delegate to a seat upon the floor of the convention as well as free admission and service at the annual banquet and at all of the other social functions provided by the local committee for the benefit of delegates. WIZARD OF TUSKEGEE COMING. Booker T. Washington will visit Seattle during the latter part of August, having accepted an invitation from the Washington Conservation Association to attend the first national Conservation Congress. Booker T. Washington was born near Hale's Ford, in Franklin County, Virginia. He says: "I remember very distinctly the appearance of the cabin in which I was born and lived until freedom came. It was a small log cabin about 12x16 feet, and without windows. There was no floor except one of dirt." Just after the war closed all the slaves were called to the master's house. When we were told that all the slaves were free. They then moved to West Virginia. He there saw a young colored man reading a newspaper to a large crowd of colored people and this fired his ambition. His step-father was not able to send him to school, but his mother, although she could not read, got him a book and did all she could to help him. Arrangements were made so that he could work in the salt furnaces and coal mines until 9 o'clock. This made him late at school. There was a large clock in the salt furnace which kept time for hundreds of men. I turned the hands forward, which gave him time for school. He finally got through the school and determined to go to Hampton. With the few clothes that my mother and brother John could secure for me, I started about the first of October, 1872. I rode on the cars and stage part of the way and on foot the remainder. He got to Richmond, Va., without money. He knew nobody there. He got there about 9 o'clock at night, hungry, tired and dirty. He slept under a plank sidewalk. Next morning he went to the wharf and asked the captain of a ship if he would give him something to do to get something to eat. The captain did so. He arrived at Hampton and met the lady principal who He was given a room. In a short --- time he presented himself to the lady. She showed him a large recitation room and told him to sweep it. He did it and the principal was so well pleased that she said, with a smile, "I guess we will try you as a student." He was graduated in 1875 and returned to Malden, W. Va., where he taught school for three years. He went to Tuskegee in June, 1881. It was in a section of country where the Negroes outnumbered the whites. He opened school on the 4th of July in an old church and a little shanty ready to fall down from decay. There were 30 pupils the first day. It was uphill work. He succeeded and now has a school with 70 houses, 25,000 acres of land and 2,000 students. Booker T. Washington, is known over the civilized world as one of the greatest educators. F. A. Cotton, superintendent of public instruction of Indiana, visited Tuskegee and said it was one of the greatest institutions of learning in the world. He has sent three men to the Congo Free State to teach the Africans to grow cotton. Everything grown on his grounds sell for a better price and more readily than from any other place around. In the spring of 1895 he was invited to deliver an address to Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn. This was a basis for many other addresses. Soon after the election of McKinley to the office of President the Washington Post and other papers urged the President to make Mr. Washington a member of his cabinet. WORK OF GRAND LODGE. The Grand Lodge of Masons met in Seattle last week. The Grand Lodge was organized six years ago with only three lodges. It has grown to eight lodges. The officers and representatives seem to have Masonry at heart. They work hard to bring the order up to a high plane. There were about fifty members present. The reports were fine. Grand Master J. E. Hawkins delivered a fine address. The reports of secretary and treasurer showed quite a good balance in the treasury. The ladies of the O. E. S. served lunch every day in the hall and they certainly did it in a way that the Grand Lodge enjoyed it. Representatives were from Portland, Ore., Spokane, North Yakima and Roslyn. The election of officers took place Wednesday afternoon and resulted as follows: J. E. Shepherson, G. M.; H. T. Asberry, D. G. M. Payne, G. S. FRIDAY. JULY 23. 1909 W.; Chas. Ryan, J. W.; Joe Sims, Treas.; E. H. Holmes, Sec. The officers were installed Thursday morning by W. F. Teister, P. G. M. of Indiana. There was a great deal of intelligence shown in the discussion of important subjects which came before the lodge. New laws were made and the lodge closed with a Methodist class meeting, to meet in Spokane in 1910. In attendance of the Grand Lodge of Masons were J. E. Shepherdson of Roslyn, James Williams, Henry Terrell, Roslyn; J. C. Logan, Ed W. Rutherford, G. N. White and wife of Portland, Ore.; Jerry Thomas, R. E. Crump, Chas. Ryan, Walter Scott, F. A. Stokes, Everett Pettway of Spokane; Joe Simms, Champ Brannan, W, L. Perkins of North Yakima; N. B. Simon, Tacoma; E. H. Holmes, Spokane, Jerry Flowers and Thos. Johnson, Spokane. BENCH AND BAR. The board of county commissioners have accepted the architect's plans for remodeling the second floor of the court house. There are now four court rooms on the second floor. The remodeling will give six court rooms and much better arrangement of the jury rooms and private rooms for the judges. The Supreme Court of Washington has been attacked by a man who is called an "ambulance" lawyer. He has grown fat on personal injury cases in which doubtless he always gets the "lion's share." It is too bad the legislature should waste time on charges eminating from such sources. There has been no evidence to sustain the charges so the whole scheme was simply to get free advertising.—Lincoln County Times. The State Bar Association will hold its annual meeting this year at Aberdeen and Westport—Cohassett Beach—one of the most beautiful of beaches and surf-bathing places to be found. The first two days, July 29th and 30th, will be spent in formal business affairs of the association, including the addresses to be given on the various subjects. On the 31st (Saturday morning) the Association as guests of the Chehalis County Bar will be taken by special steamer to the mouth of the harbor near the government jetty and out on to the broad Pacific Ocean, and then returned to the mouth of the harbor, to the south side—or Westport, where the rest of the day will be spent in pleasurable outing, and where in the evening a banquet will be given. The members will then be brought back to Aberdeen or may stay at Cohassett Beach until the summer outing is finished. Many members of the association will take their families and remain a few days at Westport for their vacations. There is a regular fare of one and one-third for the round trip, good for sixty days. Those coming through Seattle may do better by buying the round trip to Seattle and purchasing round trips from Seattle to Westport. Among the speakers listed are: Robert Cassidy, K. C., a prominent and wealthy barrister of British Columbia; James E. Babb of Lewiston, Idaho; W. W. Cotton of Portland, Ore.; Oscar Cain, Walla Walla; M. F. Gose of the Supreme Court; M. L. Clifford of the Superior Court of Pierce County; J. B. Bridges, president of the association, and others. 1 FRIDAY. JULY 23. 1909 WISE AND OTHERWISE ( UNCLE ANCIL ) It is said that the Jamestown fair had the effect to materially aid the growth of that city, and that real estate and business generally was promoted by the effects of the fair, notwithstanding the hard times which was experienced thereafter. If Jamestown was materially aided financially under such circumstances, Seattle certainly should have a large sized boom next year. No person visits the World's Fair here who does not go away with praise for Seattle and the surrounding country, and the climate is greatly above par. No one can miss it by investing in real estate in the State of Washington. Labor—all kinds of labor is honorable. The work of the banker or the merchant behind his counter is no more honorable than the blacksmith at his anvil or the farmer in his field or the man who sluices the hill and levels the ground for the erection of business blocks or beautiful homes. The man who uses the forge to sharpen the yielding iron into an instrument of usefulness is as much entitled to honor as the man of the law or the teacher of music. Every man is naturally adapted to some avocation and he is honored by all good people according to his success in his business and his worth in the locality in which he resides. The wealthy man who does nothing for his town or city as a citizen is a worthless parasite on society and should be looked upon with disgust by all people. When one views the subject of war between the nations of the earth in a just and common sense manner, we wonder at the very thought of an appeal to arms to settle disagreements and difficulties between nations. Why appeal to arms and sacrifice thousands of precious lives and millions worth of property and money to settle some dispute, be it trivial or ever so great? Arbitration would save all of this horrid sacrifice of life and property, the unwelcome feeling of jealousy and acrimony would be avoided and peace and prosperity would prevail instead. Is it not singular that the sane course has not been adopted by nations instead of the insane and unnatural manner of adjusting matters? To be sure, the nations are trying to get together and formulate a plan and an agreement for arbitration, but with slight success. The better element of the people all over the civilized world are longing for the time to come when "the sword shall be beaten into plow shares and the spear into pruning hooks," and that there shall be no more war. The time has come when closer relations should be cultivated between the United States and both Japan and China. It takes no superior vision to discern the fact that other powers are making inroads into the commercial business of these two nations. The United States should be alert to this fact and cultivate a friendly relation toward them that they would reciprocate and thus be a benefit to all three nations. In viewing the future it would appear absolutely Some years ago laborers were out of work, hunting jobs at almost anything and at any price; now people are hunting laborers, and at almost any price. The wages of the laborer appear to be satisfactory and all appears to be harmony between both parties. This is as it should be and will be as long as this nation is ruled by the better element, the safe and sane of this country. There is no way of doing business between all parties except the right way—justice between man and man, and when capital and labor shall make proper sacrifices of opinion and come together there will be peace and harmony. Capital cannot succeed without labor and labor cannot succeed without capital. It is evident that some men, and even some newspaper men, are somewhat deficient in their knowledge of the operations of the tariff. The principle of levying the tariff on foreign imports is not much different from the levying of our taxes. Some newspapers are discussing the question as to whether the tariff should be revised up or revised down. Such an idea is grossly erroneous. This government raises the revenue to defray the expenses of it by levying a duty on foreign imports and an internal revenue on liquors, tobacco, etc. The only question congress has to deal with is as to the amount of duty that should be levied on each individual article to bring the amount desired. Some articles should be revised down and other articles should be revised up. The only difference between the mode of raising revenue for the United States and the state by the assessor is that the assessor values the property to be assessed and the United States levies the revenue direct on each article. If the present rate of the tariff is insufficient to raise enough money to defray the expenses of the government it should be revised up; if too high it should be revised down. The clamor of some editors to revise the tariff down when it is evident that it would not produce enough funds to defray the expenses of the government is foolish in the extreme. That the children of the present age are not properly educated is proven many times over. Recently an examination was held at Annapolis, Maryland, for the naval service. Out of 500 applicants only 181 passed the examination. The cause was that they were deficient in spelling, reading and especially arithmetic. The idea of many persons that the children nowadays are not as well educated in the lower (or business branches) as they should be is well taken. There seems to be a desire to run over the business part of the education and pay more attention to the higher branches which are no aid whatever in business. Every child should be thoroughly taught in the lower branches before going higher in the studies. After graduating in the high school, boys especially, should be sent to a good business college and there graduated. All education above this is of no practical use. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN If there is any way for the city of Seattle to keep the A. Y. P. grounds and buildings as they are now after the exposition is over, it should be done. It would make an excellent resort for people any day, but especially on Sunday. The buildings could be leased for hospitals, private schools and other things, and would be a continual ornament to the city. The rents would certainly be sufficient to keep it in repair, and it would be a real park. Besides this it would be unique in that there would be no other city in the United States maintaining a park like this. Tacoma did herself proud on Tacoma day, last Friday. They are up to snuff on advertising. Among other things they gave out by the thousands a beautiful folder displaying the resources and advantages of their city. They place especial stress on cheap lands for the erection of manufacturing industries. This strikes the nail on the head for it is the manufacturing which brings the tin bucket brigade and which makes the town, and the town a city. Several months ago there was an able article published in the Times calling upon the Chamber of Commerce and the Commercial Club to advertise and induce men of c tal to invest in manufacturing in Seattle, but up to this date not one sentence has been uttered or printed. Seattle has let Tacoma do the advertising and she has now more manufacturing than Seattle, although she is only one-third as large. To exterminate flies take two teaspoonfuls of formaldehyde to one pint of water. Put in a dish. The flies like a weak solution and will drink it. Some die in the water, others will get as far only as the immediate vicinity. If there are large numbers of flies they may be swept from the floor. ITEMS OF INTEREST. "Vegetable milk" is used in Japan. It is made from the soja bean. The liquid is exactly like cow's milk in appearance and in taste can hardly be distinguished from it. To make it the beans are first soaked and then boiled in water. Some sugar and phosphate potassium are added, and it is boiled down till it has the consistency of condensed milk. A current newspaper item is as follows: "The wife of a Methodist minister in West Virginia has been married three times. Her maiden name was Partridge, her first husband was named Robin; her second husband, Sparrow; her present husband's name is Quayle. There are two young Robins, one Sparrow and three little Quayles in the family. One grandfather was a Swan and another a Jay, but he is dead now and a bird of Paradise. They live on Hawke Ave., Eagleville, Canary Islands, and the fellow who wrote this article is a lyre bird and an interesting relative of the family. About the most satisfactory lie is saying you had to sit on a jury when it was a baseball game. A man might as well be roast beef cooking in an oven as to be engaged to a stout girl and have to hug her on a hot day. An Eastern Washington girl held down a claim for over a year and then married an editor. Her close friends now think that for her nerve she should be awarded a Carnegie Heroine Medal. But where did she display her nerve, in holding down the claim or in marrying an editor?—Sumas News THEY DO SAY That the scramble for Frank Cushman's place in Congress is now on, but That as it is a case of many calling and only one to be chosen, there will be numerous disappointments. That some of the politicians think Pierce County should "lay low" this trip so far as to help out on the U. S. senatorship. That ultimately Pierce County might find herself fallen between two stools. That a man, or a set of men, who try to set class against class in political circles is a poor American. That it gives most of us a terrible jolt when we hear our friends praise our enemies. That many a man who thinks he has the nerve he had 20 years ago, will find himself dreadfully fooled if he takes a ride on the shoot-the-chutes at the A.-Y.-P.
