Seattle Republican

A question has been raised as to whether or not the speaker of the house of representatives of Congress elected for a special session, which special session convenes prior to the regular session Uncle Joe's can hold on without being re-elected. If there is a precedent for him Speaker's Rights doing either way no one seems to be cognizant of it and in such a Person John Jacob A the Southern seas pleasure and got John Jacob Astor and his son are reported lost in the Southern seas. He was cruising in the south for pleasure and got caught in a hurricane. John R. Lynch will retire from the army with the rank lieutenant-colanel, which will be the highest rank any Afro-American has ever attained in the United States army. Donald McMaster, a Vancouver, Washington, attorney, has been named by Gov. Hay as a successor to Judge W. W. McCredie, who was recently elected to a seat in Congress. Sam Berger, Jim Jeffries' manager, is the most talked of man in the United States. Johnson and Jeffries, who will do the act, have been completely forgotten and Sam is it. As the blood of the martyr is the seed of the church so is the punishment of the lyncher the seed of wholesale lynching. The U, S. supreme court has sentenced a Tennessee sheriff, two deputies and three laymen to terms of imprisonment ranging from two to six months for the former permitting a man to be Sam Berger, talked of man in fries, who will do gotten and Sam is Andrew Carm land at Creson, P cepted and the comments have been Charles L. W. Andrew Carnegie's offer of 450 acres of mountain land at Creson, Pa., for tubercular cases has been accepted and the colony will, as soon as shelter arrangements have been provided, begin actual existence. Charles L. Warner, who stung the Big Four for $643,000, now occupies a felon's cell in Cincinnati as does Mrs. Jeannette Stewart, on whom he is said to have lavished his illgotten gains. The way of the transgressor is hard. Dr. Jacques Bertillion, the French statistician, wants a heavy tax imposed on families where there are two or less children. The excess of deaths over the births in France for the past six months is 28,205, and to obviate this prompts the proposition of Dr. Jacques. Leslie M. Shaw in a public speech in Philadelphia declared the United States had to cringe before Japan after the San Francisco embroligio because she feared to risk a war with Japan. Then the proud Anglo-Saxon has after all had to bend his knee to a darker race. What a shame. Earl Bullock, who attempted to rob a Kansas bank, and who committed suicide rather than be captured, took Harry Tracy as his ideal hero. He religiously read a book recounting Tracy's deeds and declared he died a most noble death. What a pity that such rot falls into the hands of young boys. Alma Bell, a poor twenty year old California girl who was ruined by Joe Armes, a rich rancher's son, and then deserted, which she resented by fattally shooting him, is on trial for her life before twelve men good and true. If the jurymen are really good and true they will acquit this young woman. J. E. Chilberg, of A. Y. P fame, contorts what was intended to be a bit of political gossip of a complimentary nature in The Seattle Republican as sarcasm. Either J. Edward does not understand the English language or he is trying to play foxy grandpa. The Seattle Republican warns J. Edward to never get in politics or he will hear from it. Louise Arbogast, of St. Paul, is now on trial there for the murder of her father. Her mother was recently acquitted of the crime and now the daughter is being tried. There was no evidence to warrant the prosecuting attorney to put either one of the women on trial further than that the two women were in the house at the time the old man was killed and there was no evidence of anyone from the outside having entered the house at the time. Gen. Geo. W. Tibbetts, superintendent of the Orting Soldiers' Home, visited the Port Orchard Home on Tuesday. Gen. Tibbetts informed us that at the roll Soldier's Home At Orting families in the colony living outside the Home. The Home only has room to comfortably accommodate 350, so it can be seen that there are more than double the number now in the Home that can be properly cared for, and others are applying for admission every day. The law governing the question of caring for colonists living outside the Home provides that only those living inside the city limits of Orting can receive aid, which consists in issuing $7.00 worth of rations each month to each family.—Sidney Independent. --- Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents The Passing Throng. Mme. Margherita Steinheil, the 'red widow of Paris, has been acquitted of the charge of having murdered her husband. After one of the most sensational Red Widow Goes Scot Free secured instead of rightfully prosecuted, a jury brought in a verdict of not guilty and despite the verdict those who took a keen interest in the trial as the accounts appeared in the daily papers believe her guilty, but there is such a thing as overdoing even a good thing and this tho prosecution did and was rebuked by the jury for their cruelty. Even though apparently guilty of heinous crime a human being should be treated humanely. As was this woman treated in order to ring a confession from her so are the prisoners who are taken to the city jail in Seattle treated. It has been overdone and while those responsible for it will never be punished, yet they have and will be humiliated to such an extent that any real man would sooner undergo a period of punishment than such a public exposure. Maryland's Second Attempt to disfranchise her Negro voters proved as dismal a failure as did her first and it is hoped that the vote of Maryland on this sub- ject is the beginning of the end and that even those states that have already committed the nefarious outrage will repent of their act and either repeal the vicious Negro Disfranchising Gets A Set Back legislation or let it drift into inocuous desuetude. Brutalize a human being however low he may be and he becomes a brute in fact, but humanize him and he at least becomes a higher type of humanity than he was. In other words you drag down instead of build up a human being by having him understand he is in a land and country where might makes right and whether he does right or worng he gets the same kind of treatment at the hands of the controlling class. Give the black man the same opportunities of improvement as you do other races and classes that come or are among you and a decade will see a marked difference in him over what he now shows. Let the golden rule be your guiding star. Criminal carelessness is again responsible for the death of some 600 miners and untold grief and miserv for their families. At Cherry, Illinois, a miner became like so many lighted candles. It is ever thus with miners. After they have grown accustomed to the dangers of mining then they grow careless and will take chances, which will not only endanger their lives, but hundreds of others and if they get through at one time without accident, it but embolden them to attempt even more desperate undertakings and sooner or later an awful calamity follows. Any miner caught breaking mining rules should be arrested under a state felony law and on conviction thereof be forced to serve a term in the penitentiary. In no other way will such criminal carelessness be broken up. Violent diseases require violent remedies and this is one. s to have another grand jury, the is as follows: J. W. Sargent, F. E. W. Patterson, R. Lissinger, J. E. McClelland, L. M. Parker, Theodore Lier, Thomas Gilbert, J. T. Franklin, A. H. Johnson, A. S. White, Joe Lamar, John Anderson, R. R. Spencer, B. W. Mr. Bad Man They Are After You Schneider, A. L. Brown, J. O'Leary, N. T. Joliffe, F. L. Boehm, J. P. Gleason, Robert Bowren and William Lee. There does not appear to us a sufficient excuse for the calling of a grand jury, but the people have clamored for it and if the superior court judges had have refused it then the idea would have been bruted about that the judges stood in with the grafters. Now that it has been called let it look into every thing pertaining to county and city affairs in the county of King and indict the rich and the poor, the influential and the laborer one and alike if any tangible evidence is found against any of them. FRIDAY, NOV. 19, 1909. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. Uncle Joe's Speaker's Rights case it looks as though he would have to be re-elected. If it be a fact that the latter is the correct version of the point at issue then the insurgents believe they have votes enough to defeat Uncle Joe Cannon for re-election. This paper is in full sympathy with the overthrow of Speaker Cannon, and yet it is no advocate of the LaFollett-Cummings idea. Uncle Joe has outlived his day of usefulness and the Republicans should relegate him to the camp of has-beens. lynched and the latter for assisting in the bloody work, after the court had ordered a stay of legal execution. The punishment of those law breakers will not serve as a warning to them and while they may not repeat the self same act, yet if some ene of the members of the court should go to Tennessee and say what he or all of them have said in Washington City, he himself would be lynched ane those fellows sent to jail would be ring leaders. The average citizen of Tennessee and in the most of the states of the South is a border outlaw. These men have simply been martyrized and on their return to the state from their prison cells they will be received with open arms by the entire population and their children to the third and fourth generation will be honored to high official position by their fellow law breaker. To break the law of the land is the delight of the true southern gentleman. According to information lately come to light there now exist some forty or fifty treaties ratified by the United States Government, but which are still ineffective for the reason that other contracting nations have delayed in their ratification. Among these ineffectual treaties which await the sanction of the other contracting Uncle Sam's Treaties Not Reciprocated Uncle Sam's Treaties Not Reciprocated Argentina—Arbitration treaty, ratified by President Roosevelt on March 1, 1909. Ecuador, Bolivia, Haiti, Uruguay and Chile—Arbitration treaties, ratified by President Roosevelt on March 1, 1909.

Homer Lea, a well known writer, in speaking of Japan controlling the Pacific says: "In the event of war her supremacy could not be challenged until a sufficient fleet of colliers could be constructed. In three months time she could land 400,000 soldiers on the Pacific Coast and seize without resistance the Philippines, Hawaii, Panama, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California" and-rats. Volume XVI, Number 25. H. R. CAYTON, Publisher Persons Talked About. Theodere Roosevelt maneuver. "With Roosevelt, long before he devised his scheme to deport the blacks to Afrlca, the Negro ques, ion always has been a paramount issue. He told me that the criticisms he received from all parts of the country when he entertained Booker T. Washington caused him to come to the belief that it would be utterly impossible to educate the Negro to a standard of social equality with the white race, and that he saw clearly that no inferior race could exist for any length of time and prosper in a Republican country. Roosevelt said the attitude the South assumed toward the Charleston postmastership confirmed his belief, and that it was this, based on other facts he had gathered, some of which I gave him, that led him to form his plan to see if the only logical solution of the Negro question—deportation—could not be brought about successfully. Through Federal officers scattered throughout the South he ascertained that a condition existed that was leading to one certain end, and that would be the extinction of the Negro element by a method other than race decay. His data correctly informed him that the Negro as a laborer in the South was fast being replaced by the Negro as a thief, and that even such menial positions as waiters, street cleaners and day laborers on public improvements all were being filled with whites, while the Negro, having no employment left open to him, was gradually becoming more and more accustomed to support himself by thievery and to consider himself at war with the whites. 2 Is Roosevelt in Africa To Settle the Fate of the American Negro? An Astounding Story of What is Believed to be the Real Purpose of the ExPresident's Mysterious Journey to the Dark Continent That Theodore Roosevelt, while apparently in Africa on a hunting expedition, killing tigers and fleas, is in reality carefully investigating conditions to ascertain if it be not possible and practicable to establish in the Sudan country a second empire of Liberia, and thereby solve forever the Negro question of America, is the disclosure made by a United States Federal attorney, in charge of a Southern district, who relates the supnosee secret plans of Roosevelt in all their details. The plan as revealed by the former President's confidant is "to stake out a good section of the country in the Sudan, north of Congo Free State and west of German and British East Africa; hoist up the Stars and Stripes at the four corners, have Uncle Sam declare a protectorate, organize the native tribes into a suzerainty of the United States of America, and then will come the expatriation of the Negroes from this country to the new empire in the heart of Africa. In the rounding out of the plan, a wedge will be formed by a nation under the control of the United States, that will prevent the expansion territorially or commercially of Germany and will make the United States a factor in the balance of power among the nations of Europe now struggling to retain and enlarge their footholds in Africa. The Federal attorney who disclosed what he asserted was the intention of President Roosevelt to solve the Negro question while in Africa bore out his declaration with a buttress of facts that dovetail with the movements of Roosevelt both previous to his departing for Africa and since he has penetrated beyond the reach of the newspaper arm. "His plan to cross a territory not at present under the flag of any European nation," continued the Federal attorney, "his determination to take with him men known to be expert agriculturists, capable of judging soil conditions; his skill in surrounding himself with representatives of the civil and military arms of the government, and, above all, his persistent refusal to allow any newspaper men to accompany expedition—all these acts and facts lead me to believe that Roosevelt went to Africa to carry out the plan he discussed with me when gathering data on the Negro question. Again, he has taken with him a large quantity of trinkets with which to placate the natives with whom he first would be obliged to deal before mapping out the country to be populated by the Negroes. He has kept his plans absolutely secret, because every nation of Europe, at the first whisper of his intentions, would direct a dozen detachments to dog his footsteps and prevent another Fashoda THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN. Theodere Roosevelt All through his trips to the South Roosevelt sought information concerning the Negro question, and the information he received, I believe, is the basis for his expressing himself so freely and asserting it was his belief that the existence of the Negro in North America had become a question of the ability of the South to continue to bear a burden that was becoming excessive. "The police chiefs of every Southern city will assert that the Negro is the guilty thief in forty-nine cases out of every fifty. The penitentiaries are full of Negroes, and the Southern cities are clamoring for relief from Negro ex-convicts from the convict farms and prisons." The plan outlined by Mr. Roosevelt, and which took him to Africa to complete, contains a solution to every vexatious question connected with this problem. The fact that the Negro now is a citizen of the United States and is a property owner, and all the difficulties, legal and otherwise, entailed in the execution of this plan, all are solved in the explanation of Roosevelt's intentions to deport him, as disclosed by his confidant. "Theodore Roosevelt relies on his popularity as Napoleon did on his," asserted the attorney, "to carry him through all his difficulties in his novel scheme to deport the American Negro to Africa. He believes that it will be easy to persuade the nation to abrogate the Fifteenth Amendment, and then the Negroes will have the same relations to the Federal government as the Indians, and they were ejected from their lands handed down through centuries --- of ancestors and forced to migrate thousands of miles, as in the case of the Seminoles. He relies on the support of the South for the financial burden necessary to carry out his plan, provided his reports of conditions in Africa are favorable. If it is pointed out to him that the territory he would annex, practically, is far inland and not accessible, he will point to the success of the Mormons in making a fertile valley out of Utah, when they were obliged to cart all their material and supplies overland from Kansas City. 'Roosevelt will burst from the jungles of Africa next April and say, 'Here, I have done it, now help me. I have risked my life for a year to find a solution to your Negro problem. I have organized a friendly federation of tribes in the most fertile country of Africa. I have prepared a place for the Negro, where each can have a hundred and sixty acres of land. This is not the pestilential coast of Liberia, but the very heart of Africa. The colonizing of this country will also prevent the expansion of our commercial enemy, Germany.' And then, exerting all his influence, he will ram through legislation and strike while the iron is hot. He plans, if necessary or possible, to have the individual states issue bonds to finance his migration and expatriation proposition, in proportion to the Negro population in each, supplemented by a bond guarantee by the Federal government. As a last resort, he relies on the attitude of the South to raise the money, if necessary, by popular subscription, feeling sure every FRIDAY, NOV. 19, 1909 county and locality throughout the South will open subscription lists and that the money will pour forth in abundance. "There is one more problem, and Roosevelt seems to think he can solve this also. And that is the necessity of being able to persuade the Negro to migrate. State legislation Roosevelt knows he can control, if its object is to settle the Negro question; but by offering the Negroes peace and safety, freedom from conditions that are now humiliating, by offering each a farm with a bonus with which to make a new start and buy the tools of husbandry, by acclaiming that he is the friend of the Negro and always has been, and that his solution will improve them as a race and as individuals—by these means Roosevelt hopes to overcome the situation without compulsory legislation, unless it might be by a remote time limit of, say, twenty years. If he does not find conditions over there as he expected, as he has not announced publicly his plans, he can withdraw gracefully and no harm has been done; but I feel sure he will do his utmost to put the deal through. It is the kind of an undertaking he likes." What is Roosevelt really doing in Africa? Strong evinence is now being brought to light which affirms the rumor that he is there to solve the Negro question. Did Roosevelt, a man who has kept the world in a turmoil for seven years, go out to Africa with dreams equalling those of the Corsican, expecting to reverse the laws of ethnology and turn the tide of migration back from West to East? Did he expect to succeed where Monroe had failed, to combat the lust of European nations for every inch of soil on the Dark Continent? Did he expect to be able to accomplish that which the sacrifice of a million lives in the Civil War did not? And if this has been his real game, instead of lions and tigers, will he burst from the jungles of Africa next April, expecting with one hand to push back the nations of Europe, and with the other to beckon to the Ishmael tribe of North America and point it the way to a promised land? What is Roosevelt really doing in Africa?—Leslie's Weekly. The legislature will have to take another whack at the primary law. The supreme court holds invalid that portion of the law which provides that voters must declare their party affiliation when registering. Until the law is fixed up it is likely that as many Democrats as Republicans will take part in Republican primaries.—Colfax Gazette.

Seattle has had a Cooper for school superintendent long enough and a literary professor is suggested as a shange. Its up to President Taft to choose between Ballinger and Pinchot and it is berely possible that, he will choose neither. It will doubtless cost the tax payers of King County $20,000 to learn that all is well, but a fool and his money soon part. The Gray matter of the next senatorial campaign may cause ‘Seattle Piles of trouble. Experi- ence is a dear teacher, but fools will have no other. Ashmun Brown,’ a Seattle boy and a well know newspaper man and once private secretary to Gov. Albert E, Mead of Wash- ington, is now a newspaper cor- respondent at Washington City filling the place left vacant by Walter E. Clark, who accepted the governorship of Alaska. It is almost the concensus of opinion in Seattle that the school system here is the most ineffec- tive, so far as teaching the chil- dren is concerned, of any city on the Pacific Coast, It however, is quite long on salary grabing at least for the superintendent, the secretary of the board and the salaried army connected with the system. The schools of the city have been in the hands of the present diumverate so long that Secretary Rube Jones, dol- lars to doughnuts, without re- ferring to his private hooks, could not tell what his salary was when he was first employed. That the children are not get- ting a square deal.in the school rooms is the belief of hundreds of persons just as well educated as Supt. Cooper or Secretary Rube Jones. A board should be elected that would give Cooper and Rube their walking papers. Country Press Senator Cummings, of Iowa, is making national history. How- ever, itis history of much the same character as that made by James B. Weaver some twenty- five years ago and that of Will- jam Jennings Bryan during the past tenor twelve years. The trouble with Mr. Cummins is that he is attempting to force the Republican party to father the rantings of all the political monstrosities of the past and Present, with the promise that future discoveries along his line of progressive thought will be cared for by Republicans. —GoLp- ENDALE SENTINAL. King County is to have a grand jury, the first for many years. The Judges of the Sup- erior Court at a meeting last Thursday decided upon this course. There has been so many charges of graft in the manage- ment of county affairs. that the judges can no longer withstand the demand for an‘investigation. It is hoped that this investiga- tion will be true, and put to rest the many rumors of graft of King County, Much will de- pend on the character of the men who compose this jury, but men can be obtained who have the courage to do their duty.— Wuite RIVER JOURNAL. According to the Spokesman- Review the possibility that the city of North Yakima may go “dry’’ at the local option election is already causing alarm among the biblulous.

Any hotel that depends upon its bar to pay expenses is better closed. —Sun- NYSIDE Sun. Politicians in the heat of party strife not unfrequently say bitter and unjust things for which, when the passion born of conflict is over, they are sorry. But however genuine the regret it cannot undo the harm which such ungenerous or unjust speech may have done. All this might be avoided if- politicians would but pray the prayer of the late Governor Johnson of Minnesota, “Spare me from the bitterness and the sharp passions of un- guarded moments.”” Thonor the man who, in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the the world, with ignorant, intol- erant judgement, may condemn, the’ countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but sense of duty alone shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives, or the hearts of friends—CHARLES SUMNER, Collier’s, the always more or less wild-eyed national weekly, has over-stepped the bounds, and lost many friends for itself on the Pacifle coast, by its villifica- tion of the Secretary of the In- terior Ballinger.

POLITICAL POT-PIE Bouillon and should Hoge or some man of his financial standing get into the fight it looks as if Bouil- lon would be the successful can- didate for the nomination. The Billy Moore big stick is being used in Republican circles very effectively thus far and in Bouil- lon’s favor. His supporters are declaring that, if he or some other man of his political faith and belief is not nominated they will go almost in a body to Billy Moore or George Cotterill, one of whom will be nominated by the Democratic party. “J am glad some newspaper |ing them out of their hard earned has had the nerve to expose the|cash is not enough for him, but Polk directory fraud that hasim-|he proposes to get in and try to posed upon the business men of|ruin them politically.

To a Spokane paper Judge Thomas Burke, of Seattle, speaking on the United States senatorial situation in Washington said: ‘“‘If Senator Piles is nota candidate to succeed himself I will be,’”’ Times being a Democratic paper and Judge Burke still having a bit of Democratic mud hanging to his political clothes they evi- dently thought such a course an unwise one from a political stand- point. The senatorial contest so far as King county is concerned will lie between Wilson, Burke and Humphries. After having given the polit- ical situation careful considera- tion it is apparent that at present the voters of Seattle are almost to a man lined up either for the Gill or the Bouillon ideas. Some few hundred may be in sympathy with the Griffiths movement, but this is seriously doubted. The business men almost to a man are for Gill in the absence of any other candidate for the nomina- tion having announced himself and the laboring people are largely for Bouillon, not because they think he is such a great man, but because they think he has exposed a bit of municipal corruption that otherwise would not have been done and because for the further reason that, if there isa little bit, which Bouil- lon has been able against odds to dig out, there is a great deal yet under cover. It is entirely too long before the election for the laboring vote to become active in polities for they as a rule do not hold out. The captains of industry in and about Seattle will be able in the opinion of the writer to convince a great ma- jority of the laboring men, who now declare themselves for Bouillon, that he will prove the veritable bull ina china shop in the mayor’s chair of Seattle. That he will do so is the belief of every well thinking man today and that if he begins it then Se- attle’s great building improve- ment and other improvements that men with money are con- stantly putting in will suddenly drop off and Seattle wiil be deader than a door nail. Senator Samuel H. Piles may be a poor politician and do many things to his own political detri- ment, but the Pie-maker will never believe that Piles knew anything as to the contents of that remarkable political inter- view printed in the Times last Sunday. L. H. Gray may have asked favors of Senator Piles and he may have gone off half cocked because such favors were not granted ‘him, but even at that Senator Piles has hardly threatened to read confidential letters that passed between him and Gray on the stump asa_vin- dication of the course he has pursued or as condemnatory to the course Gray has pursued, Making public, correspondence which was written in confidence, is a serious thing and the public man that ever attempts it will not be a public’ man very long after he has done so. Senator Piles may be politically crazy, using the vulgar vernacular of the streets, but he aint no fool. H. C. Gill has formally an- nounced his intention of being a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor of Seattle. As has been previously said in these columns both A. V. Bouil- lon and Austin E. Grffiths have announced their intentions of do- ing the same thing, which at this writing makes a three cor- nered fight. It is rumored that James D. Hoge is being solicited to permit his name to be used in the same confection, but up to going to press he had not public- ly signified his willingness of do- ing so.

Out of the office of Prosecuting Attorney George F, Vandevere two candidates as his successor have announced themselves, viz: John H. Perry and John F. Mur- phy. Both are prominent in po- litical, professional and _ social circles, which means a hard cam- paign. Homer E. Turner will also be a candidate as may be Mayor John F, Miller and Frank E. Griffiths. Which may safely be in- terpreted that Senator Piles will not be a candi- date to succeed himself, If there were the slighest probability of Piles being a candidate Burke wouid not have given out the interview for in it is carefully couched his campaign policy and ap- pearing first in the Re- view was the well laid plans of Judge Burke and his Seattle supporters. Owing to the undue friendliness the Seattle Times has profe$$ed for Judge Burke in boosting him into the senatorial race it would appear that, the honor conferred upon the Review would have been given it, but the 4 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washoe for King County State of Washington Lamont University, a Corporation, Plaintiff, vs. A.

CHARLES R. CROUCH, Attorney for Plaintiff. Address: 627 Bailey Building, Seattle, Washington. Nov. 5—Dec. 17, 1909. 80 Amusements Charles Cherry's first appearance as a star in this city will be si nalized next week at the Alhambra, when the Shuberts present him in Clyde Fitch's latest comedy, "The Bachelor." The piece was first presented in New York where it ran many months at the Maxine Elliott Theatre going from there to the Whitney, Chicago. Its presentation, therefore has been limited to these cities. Again Russell and Drew announce a play that is practically new, for their stock company at the Septtle Theatre. On Sunday afternoon will see the first production in the west of Mittenthal brothers great play "The Banker, the Thief and the Girl." This play was first offered to theatre goers last spring and proving a success, it was given a big production and sent upon the road this fall. Thus Seattle gets a view of the play right on top of its opening in the east. Russell and Drew are negotiating for other plays of recent production, several of them of such magnitude as far as the scenic inventures are concerned, that they have never been seen outside of a dozen cities where the stages are large enough to accommodate the settings. The Seattle Theatre is large enough to take any play ever produced, in fact its equipment is one of the best in the country and it is particularly adapted to stock work. A lawyer with only a diploma and brass sign, who would lose a suit even if the other side was ready to confess judgement, will tell you how to run a new paper. A physician who would send his patient to the morgue before the perscription has been filled will know all the fine points of making a newspaper. An actor who never earned any other plaudid than a soft tomato will give instructions of handling the world's news. Any old lady who knows enough to get off a street car backward has positive opinions on the press. Even a society person who never paid anything but a call or made anything but a visit or did anything but a tailor knows how stupid those men are who write "stories," edit "copy," wrestles with "heads" that won't fit and get the paper out on time—AN EDITOR.
