Seattle Republican

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN men of the city. I will not be a candidate. I am down and out of politics." Charles E. Coon, lieutenant governor of Washington during the Meade administration, spent a few days in Seattle not long since, and speaking of Irondale, said: "Irondale is forging to the front through her forges. She is going to make a great town. She now has something like 1,000 inhabitants (mostly workmen), and her school has thirty pupils, showing that the men are taking their families with them. Keep your eye on Irondale." John H. Perry has retired from the office of the prosecuting attorney and has resumed the active practice of law with offices at 906 Leary Block. Mr. Perry made a splendid record as deputy prosecutor, which should serve him well in his candidacy for the nomination of prosecuting attorney before the coming September primaries. Peter Miller, the much talked of police accuser of third degree practices, has again been found guilty of burglary despite the fact the case was tried in Tacoma. While Detective Tennant takes his conviction as a personal victory and a vindication of himself as against Miller's accusations, nevertheless a great majority of the people both in Seattle and Tacoma believe Tennant the inhuman wretch that he has been pictured, and they also believe Miller the monumental criminal that he has been pictured. Dr. M. A. Matthews is again in the limelight over a recent sermon against woman suffrage. He pronounces the want-to-vote woman as suffering of male-itis, producing about the same effect as graft-itis on men in public office. It caused much commotion among the women of the city, who spoke of Dr. Matthews and his sermons in language that would not sound well if incorporated in Dr. Matthews' next Sunday sermon. J. W. Bullock is one of the most unique characters that is figuring in the present city campaign. He came to Seattle to join the early Klondike rush. He was in the Klondike country quite a while, where he made friends by the scores and these are all supporting him. He returned to Seattle and began collecting for a coal firm and subsequently bought the business and has by fair dealings become one of the strongest business men in the city. P. P. Ferry is one of the good lawyers of Seattle and recently he has developed into one of the good business men as well. He is the head of the Leary-Ferry Land Company, which in a comparatively few years more will land him in the multi-millionaire class. He has recently completed the Leary Block, which brings him an income of $11,000 per month, which will pay for the building and keep up all taxes and interest within five years. Reginald H. Thomson is still the storm center of the present municipal campaign in Seattle, and yet he moves on and on without seeming to give the matter a moment's concern. Few, if any, men in Seattle have been maligned as has been Mr. Thomson, and yet he is the most important man as to the Historical Society SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. PersonsTalked About A. V. Bouillon, who is seeking the Republican nomination for mayor of Seattle, is a strange combination of nationalities. He is a Frenchman by descent, a Hungarian by birth and an American by adoption, and possesses many of the peculiarities of all of them. It is said of Ed. L. Terry, candidate for the Republican nomination for city treasurer, that he is one of the ablest accountants in the state. If, therefore, he is nominated and elected, he will not be at the mercy of his assistants to get the true status of the financial statements. Judge Orange Jacobs, who is now in his eighty-third year, is a candidate for the Republican nomination of councilman from the Third ward. Despite his age he is unusually vigorous, reads the finest print without glasses and has sufficient physical endurance to buckle down to six and seven hours hard literary work. His mind is as clear on all points of law as it was thirty years ago. Col. W. F. Prosser, who is a candidate for renomination and election to the office of city treasurer of Seattle, aside from being an ex-army officer of the Great Civil war, was a member of the house of representatives of Congress from Tennessee in re-construction days. In age he has passed his three score and ten years and yet is vigorous and active as well as ambitious and hopeful for his financial future. William H. Lewis, one of Seattle's well known young business men, is making preparations to begin an easy tour of the world later in the present year. Just a couple of years ago and Mr. Lewis was a man of moderate circumstances, but fortune favored him in getting some contracts to sluice some of Seattle's hills into the bay, which he sublet at an enormous profit, and it is now claimed that he has made for himself a clean half million dollars out of the transaction. John Roche is the name of the man who crys, "Irish World" on the streets of Seattle every day in the week. Despite the fact that he is on the streets every day with his budget of papers, rain or shine, yet it is claimed he is worth, conservatively speaking, nearly $100,000. He invested his daily earnings in Seattle real estate, when the same was much cheaper than it now is and it has enhanced in value until he is a rich man and yet he drolls out, "Irish World" as vociferously as well as persistently as when he first took up the rather odd way of earning his daily bread. Jack Shaw, who has been an employee of every state legislature of Washington, who is now a timber cruiser in the office of the state land commissioner, said one day this week: "John L. Wilson will sweep the state for United States senator." Judge W. H. Snell of Tacoma, in speaking of the next senatorial contest, said: "In my opinion Senator John L. Wilson will get a great many votes in Tacoma. He has many strong advocates among the most influential Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910 growth of the city in the whole municipality. Thomson is a man that the world is raving over, and yet every night in the present campaign he is maligned like a pickpocket by tinhorn Bouillon spellbinders. Great is the man who can quietly sit by and listen to a tirade of abuse poured out on himself without resenting it, but he not only can, but really does. Will H. Morris, Seattle's well known criminal lawyer, always attracts much attention wherever he goes, so much that it is frequently embarrassing to him. He has defended a great many persons accused of crimes, high crimes and misdemeanors, since coming to Seattle, and the cases that he has lost could be counted on the fingers of one of his hands. After the Riplinger acquittal a local publication suggested that the salary of the county prosecutor be made large enough to induce Morris to take the position in order that a few criminals might be convicted. Mr. Morris is a man of fine physique, striking appearance, commanding language and charming eloquence, the combination of which makes him a most successful trial and jury lawyer. "E. D. Cowan may have had his faults, but to my personal knowledge he is one of the best informed men in the state and will give the taxpayers the best run for their money as a member of the board of control that they have ever had in that office. If the state officials from time to time had taken Cowan's steer there would never have been any excuse for an investigating committee. Since I have been in the employ of the state Cowan has given me some most excellent advice, which I have followed with splendid results. He may not be a votegetter, but he is certainly a tax saver," said a well known state official one day this week. The above coming as it does from a man in whom the general public has implicit confidence, The Seattle Republican takes pleasure in giving it space, since it rather questioned the advisability of the appointment in its last issue. Henry T. Ewing of the firm of Calhoun, Denny & Ewing, who recently sold the Alaska block for $1,500,000 and is now about to close a sale for another pieec of Seattle dirt for almost as much as the Alaska block sold for. All of which shows that Henry is a splendid real estate aegnt. Henry Ewing, who but a few years ago, comparatively speaking, was working on the P.-I. at very small wages, but being a man of push and pluck he wanted something of his own and so he became interested in the insurance firm, which added real estate with him as manager. He is now one of Seattle's leading business men and is considered wealthy. Charles W. Gorham, a member of the house of representatives of the eighth legislature of Washington, state printer for four years under Gov. Meade, has recently sold to F. A. Leonard the daily and weekly Snohomish Tribune. It is said that Mr. Gorham cleaned up something like $75,000 the four years he was state printer and Snohomish is now too small for him.

Whoever the successful ones are, will be so only by the generous indulgence of that voting power invested in the citizenship of this municipality. To do the right thing, or to do the wrong thing faces each voter. Abstractly, it is the voters' choice; it is his civic prerogative. Morally, it is his duty to do the right thing as opposed to the wrong thing, to vote for the best interests of the city in so far as it is represented in each individual candidate. And so we say that it is strictly up to you, my voter! POLITICAL. Next Tuesday the primary election for the candidates for the regular election in Seattle will speculation is being indulged in as to what man and Democratic nominees for mayor. It, the American nominee that is the purport of this article, saying the situation over, The Seattle Republic, it would be a public calamity for the Republ. W. Bouillon. Should he be nominated he would being elected and there is where the real public are in. No one questions the good intention this is full of men who started down the sea of contitions. If elected he might be able to find eighty official really stole two bits, but while would so completely paralyze the business interest for cities would swipe the entire commerciality, it may not be in perfect harmony with the public, but you can not afford to paralyze the community just to appease your personal feelings, and have its go-ahead at heart then your personal feelings and vote for the man that attends a debbling block in the way of her onward march to do should he be nominated and elected. Bouillon next Tuesday will vote away his own vote in less than two months he will realize it is successful. Be broad minded and liberal and be for the moment and cast your vote so as being on and upward. You would have to search a long time to find your city, who has made a name for himself in so short a time as has J. W. Bullock and, as instructed his business that every one with whom he is shouting for his nomination to a public one "watered stocks and bonds" of course get me who deals on the square and in the open his business to become independent in a short but that he has dealt squarely with his good thing can not be sold by a man or a fin business on the square. That Mr. Bullock with councilman-at-large is already a foregone conclu- half so well as a member of the city council private business, the city will have one of the tough business men it has had for many years. F. H. Hurd has made a good councilman and, every patriotic, loyal citizen of Seattle show Frank P. Mullen is again seeking a Republ. councilman-at-large and before you vote for him following questions: On what terms did you get your property? In addition and how much did you pay for it? Were you personally interested in the Third how much came your way? Is it not a fact that when you were working on sons being opened up on Pike street you would in three saloons on Pike? Is it not a fact that you were financially retired district that Mayor Miller tried to localize? Are you interested in the Jeffries Constructing on Denny Hill and if so, did you purchase? If Councilman Mullen will answer these are you, Mr. Voter, in the opinion of the writer. Few men in the Northwest possess a more for councilman Frank P. Mullen and he there support of "men." There are a number of councilman-at-large that you can vote for wives just as useful in the council as Frank Mullen. Next Tuesday the primary election for the nominating of party candidates for the regular election in Seattle will be pulled off and much speculation is being indulged in as to who will be the Republican and Democratic nominees for mayor. It, however, is the Republican nominee that is the purport of this article. After carefully studying the situation over, The Seattle Republican is of the opinion that, it would be a public calamity for the Republicans to nominate A. V. Bouillon. Should he be nominated he would stand some show of being elected and there is where the real public calamity would come in. No one questions the good intentions of Bouillon, but hell is full of men who started down the sea of life filled with good intentions. If elected he might be able to find out where some naughty official really stole two bits, but while he was doing so he would so completely paralyze the business interests of the city that other cities would swipe the entire commercial interests of Seattle. You may not be in perfect harmony with the policies of Hiram C. Gill, but you can not afford to paralyze the commercial interests of the city just to appease your personal feelings. If you live in Seattle and have its go-ahead at heart then you should bury your personal feelings and vote for the man that at least will not put a stumbling block in the way of her onward march as Bouillon is certain to do should he be nominated and elected. The man who votes for Bouillon next Tuesday will vote away his own meat and bread and in less than two months he will realize it, should Bouillon be successful. Be broad minded and liberal and be your brother's keeper for the moment and cast your vote so as to keep your city moving on and upward. You would have to search a long time to find a man in this or any other city, who has made a name for himself in the business world in so short a time as has J. W. Bullock and, at the same time, so conducted his business that every one with whom he has done business is shouting for his nomination to a public office. Men who deal in "watered stocks and bonds" of course get rich quickly, but the man who deals on the square and in the open gets sufficient profits by his business to become independent in a short time. There is no doubt but that he has dealt squarely with his fellow man for even a good thing can not be sold by a man or a firm that does not do business on the square. That Mr. Bullock will be nominated for councilman-at-large is already a foregone conclusion, and if he does one-half so well as a member of the city council as he has done in his private business, the city will have one of the most active and thorough business men it has had for many years. F. H. Hurd has made a good councilman and, being an old soldier, every patriotic, loyal citizen of Seattle should give him a vote. On what terms did you get your property in the Denny-Fuhrman addition and how much did you pay for it? Were you personally interested in the Third street regrade? If so how much came your way? Is it not a fact that when you were working to prevent more saloons being opened up on Pike street you were financially interested in three saloons on Pike? Is it not a fact that you were financially interested in the restricted district that Mayor Miller tried to locate? Are you interested in the Jeffries Construction Company now operating on Denny Hill and if so, did you put any cash into the concern? If Councilman Mullen will answer these questions fair and square you, Mr. Voter, in the opinion of the writer, will not vote for him. Few men in the Northwest possess a more foul and vulgar mouth than Councilman Frank P. Mullen and he therefore does not merit the support of "men." There are a number of gentlemen running for councilman-at-large that you can vote for who will make themselves just as useful in the council as Frank Mullen and you should do so. The following is a splendid ticket for you: For Mayor, Hiram C. Gill. For Treasurer, Ed. L. Terry. For Corporation Counsel, Scott Calhoun. For Councilmen-at-large, J. W. Bullock and It is up to the voters as to who are to be the civic honors. It is, also, up to them as to join the struggles to get there. It matters not by the candidates, for, be their claims tenant be the sole arbiters. The wishes of the voters are to manage the affairs of Seattle. For Councilmen-at-large, J. W. Bullock and F. H. Hurd It is up to the voters as to who are to be the successful aspirants for civic honors. It is, also, up to them as to the caliber that wins out in the struggles to get there. It matters not as to the claims put forth by the candidates, for, be their claims tenable or not the voters must be the sole arbiters. The wishes of the voters will decide what persons are to manage the affairs of Seattle. The selections can be THE WHY OF HIGH PRICES. The St. Louis Globe Democrat has had a special representative interviewing men of business and seeking out as far as possible the real cause of such high prices on food stuffs. In his report issued in the Sunday number of the Globe this representative gives some interesting as well as instructive facts. The chief reason though for the steady increase in the cost of living as pointed out by some of the wholesale and retail dealers of St. Louis in their interview with this representative is the working of the inexorable laws of trade; one of which is that when the means of consumption become greater than the sources of production the result is increased prices in products. The concerted opinion is that the real cause is ultimately traceable to the producer himself. The tendency of the population to quit the farms and flock to the city. And, therefore, now as there has always been, an earnest appeal is made to remain on the farm. This is the only logical remedy for the alarmingly intense conditions that now exist and which bid fare to grow worse unless steps are taken to prevent. A "back-to-the-farm-movement" is the urgent cry. The country needs more producers. The steadily increasing population is unequalizing the supply and demand. CLASSIFICATION OF PUBLICATIONS. There are in the United States 21,504 second-class publications of every description. 1. Of dailies, 2553. 2. Of county weeklies, 13,515. 2. Of county weeklies, 13,515. 3. Of magazines and other periodicals, weekly, monthly and quarterly, of general circulation, 5436. Only 7 per cent of dailies circulate through the mails, the remainder being forwarded by railroads and other lines and sold from news-stands, by newsboys on the streets, and delivered by private carriers. Though only a small percentage of daily papers go through the mails, yet they furnish 40 per cent of the entire bulk of second-class mail, and much of this consists of single copies of large city dailies sent to individuals. The 13,515 county weeklies go free within counties of publication; only copies that go beyond the counties, which are a small 3 percentage of the whole, are subject to postage. Weekly, monthly and quarterly magazines, and other periodicals of general circulation, numbering 5436, depend mainly upon the postoffice for circulation, and these pay 45 per cent of all second-class postage; it is this class of publications, therefore, that is chiefly concerned in any proposed increase in postage rates. POINTS FROM "JASPER." The stock market has had a little setback. It is easy enough for the bull leader to sustain prices while money is plentiful and cheap. All the bankers put together were unable to stem the tide of panic of 1907. Industrial captains have conceded that we have become a little reckless in our methods of doing business. We are an industrial nation, the most progressive of all. The great corporations pay a generous share of our public expense. Geo. Westinghouse employs over fifty thousand men. Standard Oil Company employs seventy thousand men. Prosperity for one means prosperity for all; there can be difference in degree of prosperity. The whole nation shares in the profits that our great industries and our great railways make. We cannot expect a perfect state of society on this side of the line which separates earth from heaven. The best way to begin to save is to start in a small way. If you buy nothing but dividend-paying stocks whenever the market declines and hold them you will make a profit in due time. GIVE THE NEGRO A SQUARE DEAL. Down South, in some States the major portion of the population is colored. There is a vast mass of ignorance and passion there which has to be controlled, and we in the North cannot control it. It must be controlled and regulated by our brothers of the South. And instead of trying to make the work more burdensome and difficult, it is the duty of every true man to lend a helping hand to every effort on the part of our Southern brethren to give a better life and a more intelligent life to the Negro.—Justice Brewer, of United States Supreme Court. 4 THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN.

The discussion of the conservation of the natural resources of the country is most vital to the people, involving not only the direct issue, but the subsidiary one of the rights belonging to the separate states. The question as to whom the natural resources belong, to the states or the nation, cannot be too lightly passed over. Fundamental principles are to be settled which by all reason should have been disposed of years ago. And these questions of principles should be settled now, not left to occupy the time of future congresses. It, perhaps, is not too authoritative for the Federal Government to step in and save the great beauties of Nature from despoiliation, yet, in a constitutional aspect the deed belongs to the states. There are times when federal supervision is imperatively necessary, but whether that time is now impending has not been definitely exhibited in acts of dereliction upon the part of the individual states. Monopoly is grasping the throat of the people's interests; the vested rights are highly and audaciously menaced; so, if action is not taken by some effective law preserving these rights of the people the crime of the age will be forthcoming. It is but just to reason that the nation can best do the work in frustrating the monopolistic inroads now being made upon interests that belong to the whole people. And so the boycott goes on! No eating of meat to check the gouge of the Trusts. Less meat eating is, peradventure, a reformation of a salutary character to man. Pity he must eat meat at all. Still, if the prescription given the meat combine acts effectually, then it will be in order to begin a course of treatment on the high prices of other necessaries of life. All food stuff is unreasonably high for the prevailing low wage scales. The many are getting too little while the few are getting too much of the essentials of life. Yet, withal, meat is meat, and if you wish to enjoy its eating pay the price or join the boycott if you can eschew such food. *** It is a candidate's duty to clearly and unequivocally convince the voters that he is the right man; that he is worthy of the support he calls for. Often a candidate is THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910 the proper man but for lack of sufficient knowledge on the part of the voters of his merits he loses his fight. To the voters a candidate should present a good, clean record that has an element of superior capability, insuring greater usefulness in subserving the undivided interests of the whole people. The people must choose and they wish to choose right. On the whole the candidate most sought for is the one the people think can do the most good for the city's interest. It is up to the candidate to "show hands," and that, too, with palms upward, and especially is this true of the worthy aspirant. Unworthy aspirants are often successful because the voter having no knowledge of his competitor's better record gets confused and laconically says: "Oh, damn it, I'll give the rascal a vote anyhow." A candidate may be "first class' before and while soliciting the votes of the citizens, but, as is very often discovered, he becomes the opposite on assuming his possession of the office. Every candidate, if worthy, will treat the voters right even if he is facing a losing fight. HIGH-TIDE FINANCES. The state and national banks of Washington hold deposits to the amount of $187,194,697. America exports $500,000,000 worth of cotton annually. Seattle, Wn., claims to have $7,000,000 invested in the so-called "unitized property" scheme. Agricultural products of Washington represent the past year an aggregate value of $100,000,000. Some $15,000,000 were produced the past year from the mines of Alaska. The Irondale project near Port Townsend, Wash., has a capitalization of $20,000,000. The value of the salmon pack the past year has been estimated at $12,000,000. A daring attempt was made to steal $6,500,000 in gold from the Dareen Gold Mining Company near Cana, Panama, a few days ago. CONSERVES. Gifford Pinchot has not lived in vain. He, as a target, has brought out an army of sharp shooters. Had Pinchot not disobeyed how little of "conservation" would the country have known! "Natural resources" as a subject will soon busy the brain of the college neophyte. President Taft has not only a "great smile," but he is supplied with an abundance of "natural resources." The American people do not, as a whole, make many mistakes. Certainly none was made in the election of William Howard Taft. Conservation of Energy puzzles EPIGRAMMATICAL. Every thief leaves a track. Man follows nature—but at a distance. Man is the dog's god. The animal knows no other and can conceive no other. Discord brings out the animal that is in all of us. The great need of the world today is not so much marriages from good homes as divorces from bad homes. The wrong attitude of mind is that which fights for the bad thing. The right attitude is that which acts out the good things. It is doubtful if anybody ever gets anything in this world for much less than its real value. If wrongs are charged against capital, wrongs are charged against labor. It would do no good to have a high gear on a motor car if the operator had no knowledge of any but the low gear.

INFLUENCES AT WORK. Building operations in Minneapolis, Minn., last year amounted to $13,000,000. The Canadian Northern will build during the year 1910 more than seven hundred miles of railway, in Canada. It is estimated 100,000 Americans will enter the Canadian provinces during the year 1910. The excavations at Panama are being carried on at the rate of 3,000,000 cubic yards per month. In spite of so-called business depression, the Asphaltum Products Company of Georgetown, Wash., increased its business 100 per cent the past year. The most beautiful furniture which can be made is from the timber taken from the forests of the Philippine Islands. The Interstate Commerce Commission has handed it down that a shipper need not pay a higher charge where a larger car has been furnished without order of the shipper. The State of Washington owns over $20,000,000 worth of timber which is distributed over the state. Shipments to foreign countries have not measured up to the last three or four years in the business of lumber, as is shown by latest figures. The Northwestern Mutual Fire Association of Seattle has declared dividends to policy holders of 58 per cent of the premiums paid. For twenty-seven years Jacob Furth, of Seattle, has been president of the Puget Sound National Bank. The original area of forests of the United States was 850,000,000 acres, but it is now figured to cover 550,000,000 acres. IT WAS THE TEACHER. The school had the reputation of being the most turbulent in the district and for salutary purposes the new superintendent was a massive, muscular man with the strength of a giant and a habit of sudden, decisive action. He had just arrived in his new office and was busy explaining a mass of data when an uproar arose in the room next to him. It ceased, then it broke out anew and with more intensity. It was more than he could stand. He looked over the glass partition into the uproarious room and saw among the noisy lads assembled there a tall chap, who seemed to be making more of a row than all the rest combined. Beside himself with rage, the superintendent seized the tall boy by the collar, dragged him over the partition and banged him down into a chair beside his desk. "Now," he said, "sit still there and don't open your lips till I give you the word." Then he bent over his papers THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 4. 1910 and in the ensuing quietude worked away busily. Fifteen minutes passed. Then the head of a small boy peered timidly over the partition and a meek little voice said: "Please, sir, you've got our teacher." FUNNY STORIES There was a piece of cold pudding on the lunch table and mamma divided it between Willie and Elsie. Willie looked at his mother's empty plate. "Mamma," he said, earnestly, "I cannot enjoy my pudding when you haven't any. Take Elsie's." "You see, my son, every time you are naughty, papa gets a gray hair." "Oh, then you must have been very naughty! Look at grandpa!" *** Little Mary looked at the penny which had been given her for the collection plate and then whispered to her aunt: "How much are you going to give?" Her aunt opened her hand and showed her a quarter. "Oh," said Mary, "Don't do it! It ain't worth it." * * * "I'm sure I don't know why they call this hotel The Palms. I've never seen a palm anywhere near the place." You'll see them before you go. It's a little surprise for the guests on the last day of their stay."
