State Library THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN LITTLE REPUBLI SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1909. United States Supreme Court Judge David J. Brewer is not opposed to the combination of capital, through which certain men amass vast fortunes, but he them. In other words permit a certain few to combine their moneys and crush out all small competitors and then rob the consumers until all concerned are so rich that Cresus of old would look like the proverbial thirty cents with a hole in it and the people unable to either have a sufficient amount to eat or wear and in that condition let the rich dogs meet out small quantities to them in the shape of alms. It is perhaps contorting Judge Brewer's ideas to make him reach such a conclusion, but look at it in any light you will or may such results would be inevitable. The combination of capital, which will result in a corner on the market of the necessities of life, can not result in anything else but privation to the masses and nothing should be done in this or any other country that would permit a privilege class to spring up. "There is no danger of Socialism gaining any very strong foothold in the United States because there are too many young men who want to be something and would not be satisfied with the conditions that Socialism impose of its adherents," so said Charles E. Hughes, governor of New York and who was likewise a for- Should Be Officers They put the ture, the go any officer o For months King county of such gam Socialism Cannot Succeed midable candidate for the Republican presidential nomination as a successor to President Theodore Roosevelt. It is hoped that Socialism and its dogmas will never succeed in this country, but unless the men of this country, who have succeeded in "being something," adopt a more liberal policy toward those who are trying to be something there will come about a mighty revolution. There are no royal apes in the United States of the kind found at European courts, but the money kings simply squeeze the life out of the poorer classes and then make them stand up in public and say they like it. "Being something" in the United States simply means getting together a great bunch of money which in most instances is criminally used. Congress is once more grinding away, it having convened last Monday. President Taft's first message was like all other presidential messages full of meet for the very first bills to be introduced in Congress was one to direct the president to use all force by land and sea to chastise Nicaragua for the killing of two subjects of the United States and to have the president of that beligerent little republic punished for the same. Then the buncome bills began to pour in and among them was one introduced by Representative Humphrey to appropriate $500,000 for the Lake Washington canal. Mr. Humphrey feels that he has political troubles at home and took this early opportunity to begin to hedge for the next election. Every Congress promises to be the most important in the history of the country and this one is no exception to the rule. Seattle folks were brought face to face with the proposition of the white race intermarrying with a dark race when Mark Ten Suie, a Christianized China- iety that no other white preacher would dare brook public opinion and perform the ceremony. The relatives of the girl, who up to that time had registered no protest to the union, at once implored their daughter and sister to break off the engagement despite the fact the license had been issued.

A few days ago Corporation Counsel Scott Calhoun of Seattle returned from an extended trip through the East which took him into the New England states. "While I did not meet the boom A Long times of 1898, yet I found a steady Prosperous healthy business atmosphere Period wherever I went and the indications are the country is beginning A Long Prosperous Period One of the longest periods of prosperity in its history. The prospects of extensive railroad building next year has been an incentive for the steel plants to begin work and the most of them are running at full capacity. Any where in the East, North or South if one desires to attract special attention to himself announce you are recently from Seattle, which is your home, and before you can realize it you are the center of attraction and the target for questions galore. Seattle is simply on the tongues of a great majority of every body you meet after crossing the Mississippi river. In other words the friends of Seattle talk more about it and do more boosting for it than the real Seattle folk." Tex Rickards has c fistic mill and guaranteee 000 Tex Rickards has captured the Johnson-Jeffries' fistic mill and guarantees the fighters a purse of $101,000 and two-thirds of the moving Johnson picture shows, which sums are to Jeffries be divided between the fighters Jingo according to the terms of their agreement. The amount bid for Johnson Jeffries Jingo this fight and the anxiety of all of the bidders fully demonstrates how the public pulse beats on this fight. Not even a prospective war with Japan could be more talked of than the Johnson-Jeffries mill. Few professions, sciences or industries even in the United States are so alluring and attractive financially and otherwise as that of being at the top in the prize fighting ring. Young colored boys feel honored to be dubbed Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries is the ideal of young America in white. Prize fighting may be brutal, but every healthy young American is perfectly willing to be styled a brute if he is certain of even partial success in the prize fighting ring. King Gustave of Sweden disguised himself a few days ago and worked for a number of hours as a stevedore for the purpose of learning by experience the true condition of the laboring man of his country. He proposes to do more of such mingling with the common people and then set about a series of reforms. He may have been A King Was A Stevedore A King Was A Stevedore an ideal ruler even before, but there is no doubt now of him becoming the ideal ruler of the world. Nothing to our mind would bring the rulers of civilized countries in closer touch with their subjects than to mingle with them without fear or reservation at least some of the time. The little boy who climbed: a telegraph pole to see President Taft and after taking a good view of him came sliding down long before the procession passed, and when asked his reason for so doing replied, "he is just a man," said it all and when the rulers remember that they are just human beings like any one else there will be less of the tyranical spirit exhibited. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1909. thinks that men who acquire such riches should be liberal toward religious, educational and charitable institutions and do as has Rockefeller and others give liberally to Combined Capital Condemned Socialism Cannot Succeed thought and likewise full of meet that the individual members of Congress will not have thought a single time of after each shall have returned to his home.

H. R. CAYTON, Publisher those years, had contributed hundreds of dollars to its support, has in every respect demonstrated that he is all that a pure Christian gentleman should be, gives every evidence of being more the white man than the Chinaman and yet he was ridiculed out of marrying the girl he loved and who seemed to love him by his Christian associates and all on account of race prejudice. Races have mixed and mingled since the races were first put on earth and to such an extent that one or the other and often both have been completely lost and why not this. If the white race is so weak as to go to pieces by the intermarrying with a darker race then it is already tottering to its fall and the sooner it falls the better. But this is not a fact for the white race will lose nothing by intermarrying as in this case and it looks as if some one was straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel. It too frequently happens that officers of the law either elected or appointed to enforce the law as they find it on the statute books either do or do not enforce it as they themselves feel as to the Officers enforcement of such a law. They Should Be totally disregard the fact that it Officers is the law, and enacted by the lawing making body of the land. Officers Should Be Officers They put their judgment up against the entire legislature, the governor and the people. What right has any officer of the law to refuse to enforce any law? For months slot machines have been running all over King county without molestation although the operating of such gambling devices meant a penitentiary term if the operator was convicted by a jury of his peers and there was no interference on the part of the executors of the laws. The officers of the law in this instance did not do their plain duty and have no greater excuse for not doing it than that the law did not meet their approbation. Just such cases as this frequently happens, which has brought about a general disregard for the law all over the United States such as can not be found in any other civilized country. If any one has gotten the idea that the dark skinned citizens of the United States are unmindful of the memory of those patriots to the cause of Negro emancipation, in which some lost John their lives and which precipitated Brown the Great Civil War such doubting Memory Thomases should read of the meetings held all over the country, last John Brown Memory Thursday in memory of John Brown, who gave up his life that they might be free. It was the fiftieth anniversary of that memorable occasion. In Seattle last Sunday afternoon the members of the Sunday Forum paid glowing tributes to John Brown and his co-workers, but especially to John Brown. In a few weeks more, January 1st, the Lincoln's page of history will be turned over and again the black folk will demonstrate their appreciation of the men who stood in the gateway and advocated their freedom. "Yes we shoot the niggers, we burn them at the stake and we stuff the ballot boxes and what are you going to do about it," growled the one-eyed old viper from South Carolina in a speeeh Uncle in the United States senate. Nothing! Sam's! Absolutely nothing. Because Criminals to do anything would mean the sacrificing of a million innocent Uncle Sam's Criminals Northern men's lives as was the case in the Great Civil War and it would be a sacraledge for genuine men with brawn and brain to die at the hands of the white barbarians of the South, who sit about in supine idleness year in and out and study border outlawry. But every lynching and burning at the stake of defenseless Negroes, but further beastalize those already brutal border outlaws until some day they will again take on the defiant attitude of before the war, when again something will have to be done. Its but another more desperate effort to keep the nigger down, but the day may yet come when even the Negro will be given an opportunity to return the barbarous treatment which is almost daily administered to some member of the race, in kind. Suppose the Japanese should attack the United States and seek an alliance with the American Negro, what would the consequences be? 2 THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN. Published Every Friday, 307 Epler Blk.

Winnipeg must be preparing for a red hot political campaign as it is learned that Harry Watson Cornell has recently taken up his abode in that city. Seattle is perfectly willing to vouch for the fact that Harry is a stem winder. A professor at Pullman, Washington, in the state agricultural college on a salary of $2,000 per year has been employed to run three big farms in British Columbia at a salary of $3,500 per year and all living expenses with an automobile thrown in. It pays to know your business. If the dealers combined for the purpose of raising the price of turkeys for Thanksgiving the work of the pure food commissioners has knocked their profits sky high by condemning thousands of pounds of foul fowls that was held over and they expected to sell them for Christmas. The Seattle Republican prints legal notices and sees to it that good service is rendered to those datronizing it. Phone Main 305. POLITICAL POT--PIE Some reasons why the Hon. John L. Wilson is the best man in the state of Washington to represent us in the United States senate. After a careful investigation and summary of the political situation in the state of Washington, it is my firm opinion that the Hon. John L. Wilson is the logical Republican candidate and should be elected to the exalted position of United States Senator at the next primary election for the following reasons: 1. He is ably fitted by training, experience and distinguished public service and is considered the strongest, most popular, available and desirable candidate that we can present to the voters of King county and the state of Washington. 2. He is not tied up to any one set or faction. He will represent all classes—the poor, the rich and the medium. By electing the Hon. John L. Wilson as our next United States Senator, he would undoubtedly be placed on some of the most important committees which would be of great and valuable service to the state of Washington and the entire country. 3. The Hon. John L. Wilson has always been true to his friends and the public. No man can point his finger at him and say, "he failed to keep his word," and it is a well known fact that if the Hon. John L. Wilson makes a promise it can be depended upon absolutely. 4. Hon. John L. Wilson as former United States Senator has been tried by his friends and the public in general and has not been found wanting. His opinion and advice is sought for by all classes, and throughout his entire terms as a public servant he was always ready and willing to listen to any grievance or suggestion from any one; his door was always open to strangers as well as friends. 5. Look up the public records from any district in the state of Washington and you will find that during the terms of the Hon. John L. Wilson as former Congressman or United States Senator, he was instrumental in getting for the state of Washington more than any man that has held office before or since. 6. Representative men and the public in general are daily sending us promises of their loyal support for the Hon. John L. Wilson, giving us their assurance that it is their settled conviction that with the Hon. John L. Wilson as a candidate for United States Senator at the next ensuing primary election we can feel certain that the candidate who will be endorsed for election to the United States Senate by the voters of this state, will be a King county citizen and that man will be the Hon. John L. Wilson. The state of Washington has shaken off her former frontier ideas and is now considered and acknowledged one of the great states of the Union, and in my opinion the one man that can command the greatest possible interest and support not only in King county, but throughout the state of Washington is our candidate—the Hon. John L. Wilson. Does Senator Wesley L. Jones intend to sit idly by and see Eastern Washington make a fight for the election of Miles Poindexter to the United States senate and not enter a strenuous protest? If Poindexter is elected will not Jones' seat be endangered when he comes up for re-election? If such a thing should happen as Poindexter being successful at the polls next year would not Western Washington rise up in political arms at the very first opportunity and see to it that every vote therein would be cast for a man from her section of the state and thereby defeat Jones? In the opinion of the writer Senator Jones has had too much political experience to not be able to see and verily does see the results of the election of Miles Poindexter or any other Eastern Washington man to the senate next year. That being a fact it is the firm belief of Senator Jones' Western Washington friends that he will do all within his power to see to it that some man from Western Washington is elected as a successor to Senator Piles. Who Senator Jones will support is his own privilege, but for his own political preservation it is up to him to support some body from the west side. The state of Washington is so geographically divided that it would be very commercially unfair to either section to have both of the senators come from one or the other section. In speaking to a prom- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Hon. John L.

GRAY. inent Seattle man as to the probable election of two senators from either the eastern or western section of this state he said: "I would oppose the election of two senators from Western Washington just as strenuously as I will oppose the election of two senators from Eastern Washington. I worked for the election of an Eastern Washington man last year because the western section had a senator and I felt that it was due to the other side of the mountains to have a representative in the senate of Congress. Because there will be a multiplicity of candidates on the west side next year for Senator Piles' seat in the senate it does not follow that the leading men in Eastern Washington should take advantage of the opportunity and try to force the election of a man from that side as a successor to Piles. But to discuss the subject longer I consider a waste of words because I know the business men of Eastern Washington can see just as far into a mill stone as the business men of Western Washington and will not cut off their noses to spite their faces." Senator Piles has announced his withdrawal as a candidate to succeed himself as U. S. senator from this state and will use his best efforts to have Judge Thomas Burke of Seattle, elected as his successor. Some dozen or more aspirants who have hereto- --- E.W.WAY & CO. ANCHOR YOUR SAVINGS IN SEATTLE BAILEY BUILDING SEATTLE BEST BOARD COMPANIES REAL ESTATE-INSURANCE fore announced their determination to wrench Senator Piles loose from his seat in the senate are more or less discomfitured by this change in the program and are now busy forming new excuses for their being elected to that exalted office.—Goldendale Sentinel. The senatorial fight though a year off is growing in interest. Following Senator Piles' announcement that he would not be a candidate again, other names have appeared quite rapidly on the West side. Ex-Senator Wilson, Judge Burke, Robert McCormick and Judge Humphries. So far Congressman Poindexter is the only East side candidate. With so many names on the West Side it would seem that the East side is to be a winner as in the last campaign "The winner has been a long time coming." But is welcome. Lincoln County Times. The Marquet Club When the Argus of this city says that the vile clubs now operated by Oscar Collins and William Bowman were permitted to be opened up for the benefit of the colored soldiers now stationed at Fort Lawton it as wilfully lied as it always does when it speaks of the black man. The fact of the matter is the Marquet club has been running wide open for almost a year and was opened before it was thought that the colored soldiers would be sent to Fort Lawton. For some reason the proprietors of that club have been permitted to conduct a wide open gambling house all these months without having been molested by the police authorities in a single instance. Rumor has it that Collins has collected something like $1,800 per month from the fallen Negro women that frequent the lower end of the city, which sum of money he has turned over to some one and the presumption is that Collins and Bowman got their protection for the Marquet club for the collection of that money. We believe but few if any of the soldiers frequent that miserable dive, which, if reports be true, is the worst crime breeding hole in all Seattle. Those so called social clubs in the lower end of the town are not social clubs, but gambling holes in which the law is broken every minute in the day and the city and county authorities should see to it that every one of them is closed immediately if not sooner. Such institutions are permitted to run unmolested and the proprietors of the same are catered to in order to catch the colored vote and thats their share of the political swag. The candidate who thinks that he will get the colored vote by catering to those criminals has counted without his host and the sooner he gets right the better for him politically although he may pick up some campaign money by defending them in the courts.

The ‘Folly and Mischief” of Prohibition (Letter of Bishop Hall to the Burlingto Free Press. ) 8 Sa ER ae wy Fee eee tn, hibitory law, and in particular that I would specify the consid- erations which led me in my let- ter to Mr. Clement to speak of its ‘folly and mischief.’’ Brief- ly my grounds are these: 1. Experience has shown me that the law does not prohibit. I, myself, have had to deal with repeated cases of drunkenness, some of them habitual, unhin- dered, and, to a certain extent, I believe provoked or aggravated by the existing law. Election day in Burlington (when, if ever, the uninitiated might expect the law to be enforced) presents ocular demonstration of the fu- tility of the law. 2. Prohibition drives under- ground the mischief which it seeks to cure, making it more difficult to deal with the evil, and impossible to regulate the trade, as for instance in the quality of liquor sold. 3. The present law leads, I believe, in many cases to heavier drinking, in clubs and at home, liquor being purchased in larger quantities than would be the case if it were possible to pur- chase at a restaurant a glass of wine or beer. 4, Especially pernaps among the young prohibition provokes resistance. Stolen drinks, not only liquors, but waters, seem to possess an added sweetness. Of course, if all use of what may be intoxicants, save for medicinal purposes, were in it- self wrong, these two considera- tions (8 and 4) would be of no weight. 5. Few persons, I suppose, with any knowledge of its actual working, will deny that the law as it exists is connected with a vast amount of hypocrisy, on the part of buyers, sellers and offi- cials. May not this hypocrisy, being a deeper and a more wide-spread evil, be a greater mischief than the intemperance which it is sought to check? 6. Prohibition, by many of its earnest advocates, is connected with the notion that all (saye for medicinal purposes) of drink, that in excess may be intoxicat- ing, is wrong. The use of such drink is, in itself, nomore wrong than the use of tobacco. In either case it is the misuse which we have to guard against. Doubtless, with many persons, total abstinence (from wine or from tobacco) may be safest and best. To attempt to enforce this on all persons is to manufac- ture an artificial sin, with the risk of leading many persons to think lightly of what is abso- lutely wrong (for instance drunk- enness), because they have come to recognize that there is no real sin in what they have been taught to regard as equally wicked. 7. This suggests what seems to me one of the most serious ob- jections to the prohibition law. It tends to break down the sense of obligation in the case of all) law, human or divine, ‘‘Here,”’ some one says, “‘isa law which. is not enforced, to which no moral obligations belongs (be- yond the fact that it is a law), which is commonly disregarded. Why should not other laws be disregarded likewise (the 6th, or 7th or 8th commandment, for in- stance) ?’” 8. Once more our existing prohibitory law I think foolish and mischievous, because it is largely an attempt on the part of one set of people (our coun- try folk) to legislate for another set of people (in our larger vil- lages and cities). They enact a law which, whether wise or un- wise in country districts, cannot be enforced in the larger places. You will understand, sir, I feel sure, whether you agree with me or not, that it is in the in- terests of temperance, as of rigbtousness in general, that I urge these considerations, in re- ply to your challenge, I recog- nize to the full the evils of in- temperance, and the right and duty of the community to guard, so far as may be, its citizens from what is a menace to the community as well as the indi- vidual. I would gladly welcome any well-considered scheme for avoiding the evils attending the practically unrestricted sale of liquor which may be seen in some neighboring states. But I cannot think that the practical experience of Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine is in favor of a prohibition law. Faithfully yours, Arthur C. A. Hall, Bishop of Vermont. Toward the close of a recent law suit in Massachusetts, the wife of an eminent Harvard pro- fessor arose and with a flaming face timidly addressed the court. “Your honor,’’ said she, ‘‘if I told you I had made an error in my testimony, would it vitiate all I have said?’’ Instantly the lawyers for each side stirred themselves in ex- citement, while His Honor grave- ly regarded her. “Well, madam,’’ said the court, after a pause, “‘that de- pends entirely on the nature of your error. What was it, please?’’ “Why, you see,’’ answered the lady, more and more red and emburassed, ‘‘I told the clerk I was 88. I was so flustered, you know, that when he asked my age I inadvertantly gave him my bust measurement.” “Rastus was de neanest, on- godliest, triflin’est, no-countest, sinfulest nigger boy dat ever shot eraps or robbed hencoops, and cuss—why, dat little debble could cuss mighty nigh as han- som as old man Joe Cannon _his- sef, and dat’s sayin’ a heap! “One time, when Rastus was in de worst bonds of sin and _in- iquity‘ he had a job o’ totin’ shingles whar dey was repairin’ a steep roof up on a four story house.

When he seed dat he was gwinter scoot | right over de edge and drap | sixty feet to de sidewalk, he knowed dat he was soon to be a dead nigger, and he begun to | beg and promise and pray like ‘| lightnin’; ‘Lawd, save me and :|P’ll be a good nigger — Father -|’thart in heaben hallud beth’ */ name kindgom come will be done | —Never mind, Lawd, I’ve done -| cotch on a nail by my britches!’’ 5 1 Pointed Paragraphs Fit for the gods—the theatre gallery.
