HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON - - - Publisher 3USIE REVELS CAYTON - - - Associate WHEN THIEVES FALL OUT Now that the investigating committee for the city of Seattle is nearing its reporting time things have begun to leak out, which make one think, that the thieves have fallen out and began to squeal on each other, and before the committee makes it final reports the cat will be completely out of the bag. First one person and then another, all of whom were more or less close to the heart of the Gill administration, has begun to tell what he knew about the graft game, and men conservatively estimated to be worth thousands of dollars with splendid business associations, are charged with being just as keen for their cuts of the graft pie as those worth nothing but their daily graft. Where there is so much smoke there is bound to be some fire, and where so many are testifying that this and that man was getting large sums of graft money there must be some truth somewhere about it. Before this investigating committee began its work this paper would no more have thought the editor of the Seattle Daily Times was mixed up in the various forms of graft that the Gill administration has been fostering than it would have thought the editor of the Times would have been connected with a gang of chicken thieves; and it does not at this time say that the editor of the Times got his out of the graft that is alleged to have been practiced in the city under the Cill administration, but it does say that the editor of the Times has been so indiscrete in his association with those on whom the major part of the graft charges have fallen that his name has bobbed up in a thousand and one different places since the investigation began, and so often and so unmistakably has the footprints of the editor of the Seattle Daily Times shown themselves that, the members of the committee seem unanimous in the opinion that either Col. Blethen got his or somebody that greatly resembles the colonel got it. Then again, the way the Colonel has hollered in the Times, ever since the investigating committee began, against the workings of the committee was of itself ample proof that he was afraid of something. The honest man has no fear of the light of day being turned on his transactions. He has done no wrong and if any one desires to take the time and trouble to investigate what he has done, he will render them all the assistance within his power to do so. On the other hand, the dishonest man will use every effort within his power to prevent an investigation and if the investigation goes on in spite of his protest then he starts in to discredit it just as Colonel Blethen in the Seattle Times has done since the investigating committee began its work some six weeks ago. The Times editorially has branded Blaine and Kellogg, not exactly murderers, but so near it that, it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to distinguish the difference between them. Summing all of the charges and counter charges up, it looks as if it were a nasty nest of poisoned pups, and for the good of the city and the state in general the whole bunch ought to be cleaned out. WASHINGTON AND ITS CONSTITUTION It is claimed that the state of Washington has almost reached its constitutional limit in its number of SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1910 senators and representatives in the legislature and that the next apportionment will have to deprive some of the smaller counties of a senator and representative in order to keep within the bounds of the constitution. Members of the legislature are paid by the state and do not rightly belong to any county, and we, therefore, suggest that the next legislature, instead of killing time trying to give this or that country more or less representation begin at Vancouver and lay off the entire state into districts, and that too, without any regard to the county, in which the district falls. It should be the object of those having charge of it to keep in mind the population unit without regard to the amount of territory in which such unit is to be found. Such a division might deprive Pierce, King, Spokane or some other county of a representative or it might add to what it already has, but that should not enter into the situation. When the various members meet at the legislature owing to the fierce contention between the counties half of the time allotted to the sessions of the legislature is generally fritted away over one or a combination of counties getting together to prevent some larger county from hogging something that she is not, from their viewpoint, entitled to. The constitution is explicit as to the base of representation and, so far as the legislature is concerned, all county lines should be be blotted out and the state arranged in senatorial and representative districts without regard to the county they may happen to fall upon. It will be argued that the state is already laid off into senatorial and reprdsentative districts, which is more or less true, but the districts were laid off from a county and not from a state standpoint. In every county that is admitted it has been taken for granted that such county is entitled to at least a representative in the legislature, when, according to the constitution, it is not unless it happens to have its pro rata of population. That the readers hereof may refresh their memory on the base of representation as fixed by the constitution the sections referring to the same are herewith quoted: ARTICLE II—Legislative Department Legislature. Section 1 The legislative powers shall be vested in a Senate and House of Representatives, which shall be called the Legislature of the State of Washington. Limited Membership. Sec. 2 The House of Representatives shall be composed of not less than sixty-three nor more than ninety-nine members. The number of Senators shall not be more than one-half nor less than one-third of the number of members of the House of Representatives. The first legislature shall be composed of seventy members of the House of Representatives and thirty-five Senators. State Census. Sec. 3 The legislature shall provide by law for an enumeration of the inhabitants of the state in the year one thousand and eight hundred and ninety-five, and every ten years thereafter and at the first session after such enumeration made by the authority of the United States, the Legislature shall apportion and district anew the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives, excluding Indians not taxed, soldiers, sailors and officers of the United States army and navy in active service. Yakima county's judicial grist has grown too large for one judge to grind, say local lawyers. Therefore the coming session of the legislature will be asked to give us a second judge to assist Judge Preble, who is undeniably an overworked man, although that genial and modest official would scarcely admit it, since he is endowed with an inordinate capacity for work. However, we doubt if the judge's work would be so hard if a more common sense system of jurisprudence were in vogue in this state. Lawyers too frequently kill time in court and through delay. Then again, too much of the court's valuable time is consumed in hearing petty cases mostly of the criminal class that the law should allow the court commissioner to hear and finally dispose of.—Yakima Democrat. VOLUME XVII. NUMBER 28 PERSONS IN THE PUBLIC EYE James W. Maxwell will be unanimously re-elected president of the Seattle Commercial Club. He has made an ideal officer and has pushed the affairs of the club forward at a lively gait since he has been at the helm. Eugene Lorton, a well known daily newspaper publisher, issued his first number of the Saturday Review of Seattle last Saturday and it was a splendid review. It is proposed by the new publishers to make the review the weekly paper of the state. J. L. Douglas, secretary of the Metropolitan Building Company of Seattle, has recently returned from a six weeks' visit in the East in connection with the affairs of the company. Mr. Douglas has been instrumental in bringing a vast amount of capital to the city. Jacob Furth, president of the Seattle Electric Company and one of the heavy stock holders of the Seattle National Bank, has returned from a trip to the Orient, whither he went as a representative of the Chamber of Commerce of Seattle for the purpose of interesting the Chinese government in the commercial enterprises along the Pacific Coast. 0 Senator Wesley L. Jones has declined the federal judgeship of Eastern Washington, which was tendered him by President Taft last Monday. There was quite a number of applicants for the position, but it is the concensus of opinion among the wise ones that, State Supreme Judge Frank H. Rudkin of North Yakima will be named and confirmed. 0 James Wickersham, delegate to Congress from Alaska is preparing to urge statehood for the territory by the present Congress. Alaska is about as much prepared for statehood as Timbuctoo. The "interests" of Alaska are finding it hard to steal the natural resources with it as a territory and for that reason they hope to make it a state, when they can get there Eli with both feet. 0 It is rumored about the streets that, the Hon. John L. Wilson is to succeed Secretary Ballinger in the cabinet. No man in the state or the whole country for that matter is better posted on the affairs of the interior department of the government than Senator Wilson, and if he does succeed Mr. Ballinger the department will lose nothing by the change. ---0--- Kenny Beaton has been indirectly accused of having been the man to get the money of the sheriff's office and now it is claimed he was mixed up in the Gill administration as being one of the men to get the money. If Kenny got all the money he has been accused of having gotten he must have a good deal of it salted away just now. Yes, he must have enough salted away to live comfortably on the balance of his days. --- If James D. Farrell retires from the active management of the affairs of the Oregon and Washington railroad in the Northwest the Harriman system will find it has lost a most valuable man. He is now in California on the sick list and is getting strength preparatory to going to Europe for a long rest. While away it is said Charley Chaimberlan will look after things. Chairman E. L. Blaine of the Seattle Lexow committee will be ready to make a complete report of the findings of the committee next Monday evening. Already relays of the evidence are reaching the office of the mayor and by the aforesaid date all of it will be ready to become public property. It is said that the report will either make or break Blaine, Kellogg and Revelle from a political standpoint. Robert F. Booth, who will be a candidate for lieutenant governor at the next state election, is already trimming his sails for the fight, and he believes, even at this distant date from the primaay election, he has more than an even break to land right side up with care. Rumor has it that May Arkwright Hutton, of Spokane, has aspirations to be lieutenant governor of the state and will make a fight for the nomination at the next state election. She was the first woman in the state to register to vote, and it is said that she will be warmly supported by the women and that she has many political admirers among the men. E. M. Williams stopped the editor hereof long enough to say, "I have made no announcement as to being a candidate for the council next year, and I am at a loss to know, who could have circulated such a story. I am down and out, and I know when I have enough of a good thing. It takes more than sweetened hot air to put me in the race for councilman." 0 The next legislature will be called upon to give King county three new superior court judges, and already a number of well known attorneys are aspirants for the appointments. The state of Washington should be divided into judicial districts like the districts for representatives, and that, too, without regard to county lines, and the judges of each district should hold court in the nearest county seat. 0 Joseph Schlumpf, a Seattle councilman from the Third ward, writes this paper to the effect, he is in no wise connected with any combination, liberal or otherwise, and that he will make a campaign for the nomination on his merit and that it will be a moneyless campaign. No one had ever accused Joe of making other than a moneyless campaign, although if he should whisper that into Maud's ear he would be kicked a somersault instanter, if not sooner. ASK $200,000 FOREST PROTECTION The committee appointed by Governor Hay on forest fire legislation proposes to ask the coming legislature for an appropriation of $200,000 to be used in forest fire prevention. There is a strong sentiment throughout the state in favor of giving the commission the amount it asks for. The money will be wisely expended and that it will serve a great and good purpose there is no doubt. The forest fire question in this state is of increasing importance and the able men that the governor has named to look into the matter, believe that $200,000 is none too much, if the state is to conduct an intelligent fight in the interest of the forests. The commission is working in harmony with the Whishington Fire Forest Fire Association, which has done so much to educate the people against forest fires and which has at the same time been diligent in fighting the fires. D. P. Simons, of the Forest Fire Association, is looked upon as one of the ablest men in the west in work of this kind and Governor Hay's commission has been able to gain much valuable information and assistance from him in framing the proposed legislation.—Ex. VENTILATING A COAL MINE Down into the air shaft, every hour of the day and night, an enormous fan in the fan house at the top of the shaft pumped air into the mine, and by a system of doors and stopings this strong current of air passed through every mile of tunneling, never crossing its own path and never stopping, until it again reached the main entry, but this time at the foot of the hoisting shaft, through which—fouled by the gases, the dust and the impurites of the mine air—it poured out, a cold blast in summer, and in winter a misty tower of misty vapor that ascended far into the structure of the tipple tower above the shaft mouth. To keep this current of air from taking the path of least resistance and "short circuiting," cutting off whole sections of the mine, there was arranged a system of doors which were opened to allow the trains and mine cars to pass and closed again when they had gone through. As an additional precaution to take care of this life blood circulation, without which work in the mine would be impossible, inspectors—whose duty it was to measure the strength of the current and to inspect the doors and stopings to see that no part of the mine escaped the cleansing draft—passed constantly from place to place, testing for the presence of gas with their safety lamps and ever measuring the volume and flow of the air current.

ABOLISH THE COLLECTION PLATE A revolution of church finances is pressaged by the abolition of the collection plate by all of the Methodist churches of Cook county, Illinois. Methodist churches have never had the pew-renting system, and the collection plate method of gathering revenue has seemed to be a necessary part of Methodist worship. It is highly significant that it is among churches of this denomination that the initial step has been taken which may eventually supersede the time honored collection plate by a more business like system. Churches cannot too soon correct their lack of financial system, with its dependence upon chance contributions, socials, bazaas, etc. In their financial department, churches should be as well organized as any business enterprise. The deficit which most of them are accustomed to face at the end of every year is not credable to the cause of religion. Sooner or later churches always meet their obligations, but it would be to the advantage of religion if these were so provided for in advance that they could be met without the delay of many months or even years. The Cook County (Illinois) churches plan to make out a budget of all expenses at the beginning of the year, and provide at once for meeting it. The most progressive churches have long been doing this, but without question a big majority never have done so. As the result, most churches are behind in meeting their obligations as a chronic state, until there are some good people who seem to think it should not be expected otherwise. This gives the church a bad reputation in paying its bills, when it ought to have the best, and induces various questionable methods of raising funds. Not only so, but it often brings the clergy as a class into ill repute through no fault of their own. To his own great embarrassment, the minister is slow to meet his financial obligaoions, simply because the church he serves thinks he may be paid at any time. On all moral questions a clergyman should be an example, and there is some moral significance in the way one pays his bills. Any church claims to be independent, any church that would scorn the mere suggestion of missionary support, should be compelled to meet the salary of its minister and all other obligations as promptly as any purely business organization would do so. This may not be a spiritual activity, but it has a direct and decided bearing on spiritual influence and success. The world, for example, would not have a very high opinion of a revival of religian in a church that is always behind in its financial obligations.—Leslie's Weekly. PRESIDENT TAFT TO CONGRESS Be it said to the everlasting credit of President William Howard Taft that he recognizes a sound when he hears it, and he no sooner hears it than he sets up and takes notice. His recent message to Congress was not only full of meat for thought to all manner of man and especially to the general welfare of this republic, but it recommended legislation along the lines that the people spoke last November. While we are not exactly prepared to say that President Taft has erred in his administration policy, yet since he has been president, somebody in the service of the government has erred, but he is not so arbitrary as to think that neither he nor his administration is infallible, and therefore, he no sooner gets an opportunity to correct the evils, for which a part of his administration had been the victim, than he orders it done. It is not supposed that all the things that the late message recommended will be passed by the present Congress, but it can go a long way in that direction, and, if it were wise as to the future good of the Republican party, it would pass every one of them. The Post-Intelligencer editorially discussing the message says: "President Taft's message is essentially and strictly to Congress; it is a statement in detail of the condition and needs of the departments and bureaus of Barn FRIDAY December9.1910 The image provided does not contain any text or images. It appears to be a blank or white space with a rough sketch of a person's head and shoulders. the government, and in many respects is probably the most complete and the clearest statement of the kind issued in recent years." The message may be strictly to Congress, but the members of Congress are also members of citizenship of this great republic and are amenable to the wishes of those who are not in Congress, as it was by their suffrage that they are in Congress, and the people should interest themselves in the message by letting the members of Congress understand that, it would be well for them to set up and take notice of what the president has said on these important subjects and act accordingly, or they will not remember of ever going back to Congress. The Republican party has permitted special interest men to become entirely too prominent in the affairs of this government and especially the legislative end of it, and that was largely responsible for the rebuke the party was administered last November, and the sooner the party reverses itself and gets back to its old teachings the sooner will it be restored to power. The message has been boiled down to present the following pertinent facts: --- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN. THE PRESIDENT PRESIDENT WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT Cease passing laws regulating corporations until present statutes are given trial. Direct government's activities to economy in administration, enforcing laws, enlarging foreign trade. Provide some form of ship subsidy. Don't attempt any new tariff legislation at present. Make tariff board permanent. Appropriate $19,000,000 to fortify the Panama canal. Make appropriations for rivers and harbors only on reports of commission of experts. Pass anti-injunction law. Readjust mail rates to make magazines pay more thrn at present. Provide new banking and currency system. Add two battleships and several auxiliary vessels to the navy. Dispose of coal and oil lands and water power sites by lease. Report estimates for next year cut to $630,494,013.-12, which is $52,964,887.36 less than current year. Extend civil service to diplomatic and consular aervice. --- Increase officers of army and engineer corps. Rush fortifications at Corregidor and Pearl Harbor. Give president authority to fix Panama canal toll rates, with limit of $1 per ton. Prevent railroads owning ships trading through canal. Revise court procedure to cheapen litigation. Reommends parcel post on rural deliveries. Extend civil service to all postmasters. Prosecute vigorously all census padders. Establish bureau of health. Impose heavier fines on steamship companies for violating immigration laws. Make provision for retiring superannuated government clerks. Reimburse Southern Pacific for its expenditure in fighting Imperial valley floods several years ago. Amend law to enable interstate commission to advance railroad valuation and fix responsibility in the issuance of bills of lading. Give some fitting recognition to Commander Peary for his North Pole discovery. 4 RELIABILITY OF THE COLORED SOLDIER The adjutant general of the army has issued his annual report, and finds occasion therein to make comparison of the records of desertions of white and colored soldiers. He finds that the percentage of desertions of white soldiers during the year was about two and one-half times as great as the percentage of desertions of colored soldiers. In explanation of what appears to be evidence of the greater loyalty of the colored soldier, the general reason is offered that, "to the colored man the service offers a career; to the white man, too often, only a refuge." Without evident intention, this explanation seems to carry a tinge of injustice. While the colored recruit, as a rule, does not turn to the army as a "refuge," either from lack of industrial opportunity or from evil ways and demoralizing companionships, it is equally certain that no rosy dreams of a "career" of satisfying brilliance determine his enlistment. The white soldier's opportunities in the latter direction, particularly for service in the field, are actually better than those of the colored soldiers, whose reward for conspicuous bravery seldom reaches higher than the honor of a non-commissioned officer of paltry rank. The few colored men who have graduated from West Point and who have thereby won the legitimate rank of lieutenant, have been invariably shifted from the regular service to special branches of military work, where promotions and "careers," in the military sense, have not followed with sufficient swiftness to make them an example for the emulation of the ambitious of their race. To rise from the ranks to the office of a corporal measures the average height of the "career" to which the enlisted man of color may aspire. The colored soldier endures all the hardship, in barracks or field, that the white soldier endures, and, in his own country, at least, is subject to certain social limitations to which the white soldiers are total strangers. As an all-round proposition, therefore, the service is not so much of a trial to the white soldier as it is to the colored soldier. But the truth of the matter is that the colored man likes the elementary pomp, the discipline and the careless freedom of the army life, and sticks to it, enlisting again and again, until primary loyalty becomes an indelible habit and his calling a settled fixture, up to the periord of retirement. If this is a career, it is a very simple one, which, in the record of the army, is made illustrious by the evidence of a most commendable loyalty to the country's cause more than by anything else. Not only do few colored soldiers desert, but a larger percentage of them reenlist than is the case with white soldiers. And when they finally retire, even without the honors of commissioned office, as a rule they have money and a practical self education which insures them success in private life. The greater value of the military experience and training which these men acquire will doutless show its effects upon posterity as the years roll on and the limitations of the army decrease. For the colored man is a natural-born soldier.—Colorado Statesman. FOR BETTER NEGRO SOLDIERS The accidental killing of Joseph Harland by two recently enlisted men of the Twenty-fifth infantry brings to mind several facts which should, by proper authority, be placed before the war department. Without entering into the merits of the controversy that led to the present unfortunate state of affairs, we have been aware for some time of the fact of that recruiting officers throughout the country have not during the past five years exercised the proper caution in enlisting Negroes to the service. Unofficial statements gathered in the city of Washington, D. C., from parties in a position to know the facts and also from several retired members of the army are all of the same effect. The Citizen feels safe in asserting that there is within the ranks of the army and in the war department a very substantial opposition to the use of Negroes for army service and by some manner of means this element has gained control of the enlisting branch of the service. Their methods are subtle, they know that there is among the Negro race all classes of men; they know there is the good, bad and the indifferent. They know further that every time a bad man gets into the service it is one point in their favor and that the country can be made disgusted with the Negro as a soldier in no surer or swifter manner than to have bad men enter the service and commit offenses contrary to law, order and decency. From the statement of officers of the company from which these two unfortunate men come it is hardly true of them that they are bad men, but there is no denying the fact that the recruiting officers do not look into the character and past lives of Negroes to the extent that they do white men for the same service. The presence of this fact is a decided drawback to the Negro as a race and a stumbling block in the way of she good men already in the service who have the ambition to make the service all that it should be. Last summer when Secretary of War Dickinson was in Seattle investigating the conduct of the members of the Twenty-fifth with regard to certain charges, he took particular pains to inform the opposition to the presence of the regiment in those parts that there was but one way of getting rid of the Negro soldier and that was by petitioning members of Congress to abolish the entire service in so far as the Negro is concerned. This was very good advice for those who are willing to blot from memory the illustrious past of this valiant regiment, it was just the thing for those who can see absolutely no merit in the Negro as a soldier, but, on the other hand, why would it not be a proper thing for those who hold the opposite view, for those who remember the Negro's service in fighting Indians and protecting the homes of early settlers, for those who remember the events of the Spanish-American war, to petition Congress to see that the War Department gives through its recruiting office, the same careful attention to selecting a Negro soldier that it does in selecting white men for the same service. Alley rats, dive hangers-on and exconvicts are not the kind that make good soldiers for either the black or white races. The Citizen would assist in a movement that would bring this matter to the attention of our friends in Congress. The Negroes of this land would like to see the Negro regiments recruited by Negro recruiting officers. There are plenty of of capable Negroes in the service for this department.—Spokane Citizen. HONESTY IN OFFICE A great many persons labor under the belief that any person holding a political position is always ready and willing to take a piece of money if tendered them for services, for which they are paid to do by the government. There are still others, who are of the opinion that, the most of the public officials will not even do their sworn duties unless they are sugared on the side by those applying to them. There are still a few others, who think that all public officials will sacrifice the interest of the government, if the man with the money, will make it an object for him to do so. The question is, Is there an excuse for such an implied or open accusation against one's fellow men? How did such ideas get into circulation? An old adage runs, "where there is so much smoke there is bound to be some fire." Now does it follow that, where there are so many accusations there must be some truth? Legislators are charged with passing laws favorable to corporations because the corporations pay them big money for so doing. Members of the city councils are charged with granting city franchises to public service corporations, that rob the tax-payers because the charter seekers pay the councilmen large sums of corruption money. In fact all public officials are charged with catering and really favoring the wealthy men of the country to the detriment of the toiler, and are further charged with only being hirelings of the rich and put in office to look after their interest. If a hundreth part of what has been charged against public officials be true, then, the affairs of this country are in a deplorable state, and the day is not far distant, when anarchy will reign supreme. Instead of finding ing new diversions for the minds of the young folk on the boy scout order it would be a great deal better to instill more truth and honesty into the children even if they die a little sooner. CITY SHOULD OPERATE TELEPHONE The city of Tacoma should prepare itself to take over and operate one Telephone system. The Pacific Telephone Company has no franchise and is merely operating by a legal technicality. The present franchise expired in 1908, but being a foreign owned corporation they fled to the federal court where they hope to get a decision or an estopal of some sort which will permit them to further mulct the people with a maximum of charges and a minimum of service. This publication expects to spend a lot of time and enegry in showing the history of this corporation in the state. It will be worth reading. The Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Company is a foreign owned corporation. Its Pacific coast headquarters is in San Francisco where its chief stockholders are waxing fat. Every time you pay a dollar for telephone service the bigger part of it is shipped to San Francisco to assist in building palaces for the holders of Sunset stock. There is no reasonable reason that can be advanced why this city should longer tolerate this foreign owned octopus. A telephone is a simple thing to operate. Proof of this can be found by visiting any one of their exchanges. The city can FRIDAY December 9. 1910 easily operate such a plant and the service would be better and rentals might be slightly reduced. Anyhow, the service would be improved for the reason that complaints could be taken up here and acted upon at once instead of being to San Francisco. Another important phase of a municipal owned telephone is that the money would stay in Tacoma in our banks—rather than being shipped to San Francisco—and that would help.—Tacoma Forum. SEATTLE BANK DIRECTORY FRIDAY. December 9. 1910 Frank H. Paul, Frederick W. Newell and Deitritch Hamn were re-elected members of the Duwamish waterway commission last Tuesday. Frank Paul is one of the best campaigners in King county and he seldom if ever loses a candidate that he goes out to elect. Richard Achilles Ballinger, Secretary of the Interior, has been found, not guilty, by a majority of the members of the investigating committee appointed by Congress to inquire into the affairs of that department under Mr. Secretary Ballinger. Now that he is no longer under fire the probabilities are he will resign before the winter is over. Among those who will aspire for one of the nominations for councilman next February is E. W. Way, at present councilman from the Second ward. Mr. Way has made a splendid councilman since he has been in office, which has been almost three years. So good did he do during his first term as councilman that he was without opposition both at the primaries and at the municipal election when it came time to elect a successor to him. That he will be bitterly opposed by the wide open policy advocates goes without saying, but in spite of them he should win the nomination and election in a walk. Austin E. Griffith is dead crazy for an office and he no sooner gets turned down for one than he is out for another. It is said that he is now a candidate for the nomination of councilman and will make an aggressive fight for the place. Will Mr. Griffith kindly state, why he is so thoroughly convinced that, the voters of Seattle want him to hold an important office? Has he ever got enough encouragement on previous attempts to break into office to justify him to try, try again? It is perfectly natural for the heirs of the late L. C. Smith to ask that J. W. Clise be made administrator of that part of the Smith estate in the state of Washington and King county as he knows more about its affairs than perhaps the heirs themselves. Giddeon Tupper and Charles H. Crawford, two notorious tenderloiners, is said to have opened a club house across the road from the Golf and Country Club and it is the supposition that, they are of the opinion that there will be some mighty rich pickings thereabouts during the winter season. It will be a joy ride that you read about, when things get under full head way, for the women of the town to flock out there by the automobile loads to spend a few hours in a resort conveniently close to the man with the money. State Bank Examiner J. L. Mohundro is working away on his bank report to Governor Hay, which will be ready soon after the legislature convenes. This has been a strenuous year in banking circles and Mr. Mohundro will doubtless have a great ITEMS MORE OR LESS INTERESTING deal to tell his excellency, when, "I take my pen in hand to write you a few lines." The bankers of the state are likewise very anxious to write the governor and the legislature a few lines, which they wish to have incorporated in the laws of the state, and to that end the committee of the bankers met last Wednesday to discuss the proposed laws. Rev. Robert H. Gowen, rector of Trinity parish of Seattle, introduced Ellen Terry at the Moore Theater last Wednesday evening to the vast concourse that had assembled to hear her give the Shakesperian readings. It was fitting tribute to a worthy woman to be introduced by so able a divine as Rev. Gowen, but did not some of the other goody goody preachers of the city drop dead the next morning when they read about it? Ole Hansen, of legislative fame, had the experience of being arrested one day this week on the charge of assault. Mr. Hansen got his man, but it was a clear case of mistaken identity, he, Hansen, believing the man was going to strike him, while the man had no intention of so doing, and therefore, received Hansen's fearful uppercut wholly unawares. The matter has been amicably settled. Frederick Carl Struve, the well known real estate man of the John Davis firm, has returned from a New York business trip, and is of the opinion that financial matters are picking up in the East. Mr. Davis, his partner, is now in Europe. P. P. Carrol, a well known Seattle attorney for a quarter of a century, is one of the organizers of a vast British Columbia lumber syndicate, in which a large number of English capilists are interested, and the company is making preparations to begin shipping lumber next year. The company has something like 800 acres, which is heavily timbered. It cost them when purchased some years ago something like fifty cents a thousand and for which the company was recently offered five dollars per thousand. When the Good Roads convention made Reginald H. Thomson of Seattle president of that body it put at its head one of the ablest engineers in the whole country and one of the best generally informed men in the Northwest. From a city building standpoint Mr. Thomson has few equals in the United States and that he is as well posted on road building throughout the country as he is on the affairs of the city is likewell known. PSALM 23 An editor with a penchant for saying real pointed things must have been responsible for the following credited "Exchange" which is a pity, as such good dope is entitled to closer credit. Peruse and paste in your bonnet, for Psalm 23 is out of the ginger jar of experience: THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The politician is my sheperd. It shall not want for anything during his campaign. He leadeth me into the saloon for my vote's sake. He filleth my pockets with good cigars, my cup of beer runneth over. He enquireth concerning my family, even unto the fourth generation. Yea, though I walk through the mud and rain to vote for him, and shout myself hoarse, when he is elected straightway he forgetteh me. Although I meet him at his own house he knoweth me not. Surely, the wool has been pulled over my eyes all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of a chump forever. — Exchange. THE REPUBLICAN LINES MUST CLOSE Republican dissension in 1910 did what it attempted to do in 1872 and failed. It defeated the Republican party. As in 1884 and again in 1892. Republican defection has placed the Democratic party in power. For the next two years Congress will be a divided house, the Republicans retaining the upper branch while the lower passed into Democratic hands. But while this is a Republican defeat, it is not, in any actual sense, a Democratic victory. There are as many Republicans in the country in 1910 as there was in 1908, when Mr. Taft had a plurality on the popular vote of 1,269,000. It was Republican apathy and treachery that defeated the Republican party in the recent election. But this does not inevitably mean that the country will elect a Democratic president in 1912. It is true that the Republican defeat for the House of Representatives in 1882 and in 1890 was, in each case, the prelude to a Republican defeat for president two years later. The Democratic reverse for president in 1896, too, was heraled by the reverse of that party for Congress in 1894. But the Republican defeat for Congress in 1874, in the middle of Grant's second term, did not work that way, for Grant was succeeded by Hayes. Moreover, the Democrats won the House in 1878, in the middle of Hayes' service, while the Republicans elected Gaafield in 1880. On the other hand, the Democratic victory for Congress in 1886, in the middle of Cleveland's first term, did not foretell a Democratic victory for president two years later, for Cleveland failed of election at that time and Harrison entered. The year 1854 furnishes a close parallel to 1910. Proportionately the majority for Pierce, Democrat, in 1852, was far larger than was that for Taft in 1908, for Pierce carried every state except four, which went to Scott, the Whig, and Pierce's party won a long lead in the House. But in 1854 the new Republican party swept the country and won a large plurality in the House of Representatives. Pierce was far more surprised at that setback than was Taft at the one which hit him a few weeks ago. He had a hostile House on his hands for the last two years of his service. But though the Republican party all over the coun- ry rejoiced at its victory of 1854, and many of its leaders predicted victory for 1856, the Democrats carried the country in that year, electing Buchanan and regaining control of the House and retaining its control of the Senate. There is a fair presumption that the 1854 sequel will repeat itself in the case of 1910. But this presumption will not transmute itself into fact unless the Republicans immediately bury their differences and resume their old-time unity. If they are to win in 1812, they must regain the harmony and enthusiasm which they displayed in 1900, in 1904 and in 1908. Mr. Taft has made an excellent president. No man in his place could have gone further in attempting to carry out the pledges of the platform on which he was elected than he has done. He has been honest, courageous and tactful. For the setbacks to his party in New York and Ohio and for the loss of the House of Representatives, he is not personally responsible. A Democratic wave has swept over all the North and West this year. This was one of those surges of hysteria which come periodically in every country possessing representative institutions but which are more prevalent in republics than in limited monarchies. The Republican leaders must look the situation squarely in the face and prepare for party rehabilitation before the next campaign opens. Having accomplished their purpose of defeating their party, the insurgent chiefs should now ask themselves wherein have they or the country been benefited by placing the Democrats in control of one branch of Congress and of the governments of many states. This piece of insurgent folly has dealt a hard blow to the country's prosperity at home and its prestige abroad. Having inflicted this disaster on their party and on the country, now let them make at least partial amends by getting back into the party, recognize its platforms as binding and talk and work as Republicans hereafter And an excellent time for them to make this new departure is in the short session of the Congress covering the three months in which their party remains in control of both branches.—Leslie's Weekly.

WORLD IS GROWING BETTER Every issue of a newspaper which tries to record the most important events of the day seems tr be on its face an indictment of the human race and modern civilization. Stories of greed, oppression and crime often take up most of the space in its columns. The effect upon the reader is some times to make him think for the moment at least, that the world is growing more hard and cruel, and that society, as it is constituted, is a failure. But such a view is all wrong. and the thoughtful reader soon realizes it. The world is growing better all the time, and humanity is steadily advancing from one plane of life to another. The reason there seems more wickedness is that the people of the earth are in closer communication with one another than they were only a few years ago. Crimes which once remained unknown to all but a comparatively few are now revealed to the entire civilized world, that it may know the sort of men it must suppress, the extent of the harm they inflict and the manner in which they are dealt. Wrongs which once flourished because they were hidden are now dragged into the light of day and exposed in all their meanness in the pages of the newspapers. Modern civilization through its most powerful agency for progress, the public press, lays bare the hitherto hidden wounds inflicted upon society that they may be cured and their repetition prevented. No, the world is not growing worse. There is less of poverty, crime and suffering than existed only a few years ago. Life is easier, more profitable and more full of joy.

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is looking for your legal publications, and if you are looking for your own business interests you will see to it that no publication is sent from your office without first talking with CAYTON about it. It is an indisputable fact that there are but two weekly publications in Seattle that publish lawyers' legal notices and give the lawyers no trouble on account of errors and prompt "returns" of publishers' affidavits, and THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN takes the lead. In this day of busy, bustling activity, the lawyer's time is so much absorbed in the preparation of his voluminous cases that he has not the time to look the paper over every week to see if his notices are being regularly published, nor to read over his notices to see if they are absolutely correct. It often happens that even lawyers make errors in getting up their notices for publication, which errors are very annoying to the lawyers if not detected and corrected before going into the paper. If, therefore, the lawyer feels absolutely certain that the publisher gives his personal attention to notices or calls the lawyer's attention to them before going to press sent to his paper and either corrects small errors in notices it's a great relief to his mind. The publisher of THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN has had so much experience with legal publications that he can detect a faulty publication almost as readily as the lawyer himself, and, if not a grievous one, corrects it then and there, but if a grievous one, the lawyer's attention is called to the same before going to press. Returns on publications are promptly made, so that lawyers do not have to worry about the publisher's notice after his case has been called in court. 307 Epler Block Phone Main 305 Seattle - - Washington THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Seattle Republican, a newspaper printed in the county, and of general circulation therein.
