HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON Publisher $USIE REVELS CAYTON Associate Champ Clark's publicity man certainly knows his business and that is just why Champ employed him. Had Senator Aldrich got his financial scheme out a bit sooner a different story might have been told as to his successor in the senate. Japan seems to have done the proper thing by Korea. She has killed it and is now preparing to serve it to those fond of the Korean fowl. Men about town are asking each other the question, "If it be possible for the Seattle Daily Times to tell the truth?" No one up to going to press had been found to vouch for it. The fellows that have been telling ugly things about Judge Rudkin had better get some other kind of rubbish to the president pretty soon or Judge Rudkins will be fixed for life. Poison seems to be a new way of settling the dispute among relatives, and yet it must be admitted, judging from the number of successful cases that have been recently reported, it is working well. Colonel Blethen's 10,000 Gill Club sounds a good deal like that 10,000 Burke Club that the Times wasted so much white paper and black ink on, which proved to be a myth of the most delusive type. THE SEATTLE REPUBICAN wishes to commend the selection of the Dilling campaign committee as it seems to have been done with an eye single to at least getting the kind of votes that Dilling prefers to vote for him. Ole Hansen for the past week or more has been quarantined at his home and that, too, when talking time is on us. It must be like gall and wormwood to that man of mouth not to be able to use it on every passerby. In reply to a question, "What makes more noise than a pig under a gate?" some one answers, the sugar trust under the law. It certainly looks as though the sugar trust is in line for all and more than is coming to it. "Japan cannot afford war," sagely remarks the Argonaut of San Francisco, and unless we are very much mistaken, the United States cannot afford to have Japan wage war on her just now lest she get licked clean out of her boots. Yes, dear reader, the state of Washington, is in need of thousands of men of the Dr. Ghent stripe, who find it burdensome to provide for a wife and children, as they make the most ideal citizens, and their desire to protect the women is so keen and noteworthy. Buying votes in the state of Ohio at the last general election was operated on the wholesale plan and yet among the hundreds that were bought and sold the black man was censipicuous for his absence. Is that another "white man's" luxury, in which black men are not permitted to share? SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1911 [Name not provided] LOVETT M. WOOD The weekly press of Seattle has been honored by the president of the United States in naming Lovett M. Wood as commercial agent of the department of labor and commerce in the Orient. The appointment is one of much importance to the United States government though it has not been generally sought after by the politicians. For the past eighteen years Mr. Wood has published the Trade Register of Seattle, which publication reflected the views of the mernantile institutions of the the Northwest. He has been eminently successful in the publication of the same and made for himself a standing in the community that is equal that of any of the owners of the larger and more pretentious daily papers. In his own quiet way few men have done more toward the buildidg up of Seattle than Mr. Wood, who has been a delegate to most of the trade conventions all over the United States and even in other countries for the past fifteen years. The newspaper property that he has built up is perhaps the most valuable weekly publication in the Northwest and it is all due to his untiring work. As a representative of the United States government in the Orient it is the consensus of opinion of those who know him best that he will do much toward fostering and stimulating trade between the United States and that section of the world. The merchants of this country after all have not gotten their share of the trade of the Orient, and it is all due to the fact that the trade relations have not been carefully looked after by some man with the business at heart. "Just sparring for time to get my political organization ready for action," was the laconic answer. Mayor Gill gave to the question of, why he abandoned all of his law proceedings against the recall, but most any one would have done likewise. Registering the tenderloiners by the wholesale is charged up to the Gill machine. Well, everybody and his brother knew at the time the recall move was taken up that every tenderloiner within a 500-mile radius of Seattle would be brought here to vote if the recall ever came to a vote and those opposed to a wide open town will just have to prepare to counteract the votes of those outcasts with votes from the respectable element, and if they cannot do that, then Gill is certain of election, for there is no way to reach those fellows with the strong arm of the law. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 publican VOLUME XVII. NUMBER 34 The political row that has been raging among the women in the state of Washington demonstrates that, they have already learned how to scrap over the spoils of the game. The registration in Seattle is not moving on as rapidly as it should and unless those opposed to Gill and Wappy get a good deal busier than they have been in the past there will be no use holding the election. We shall never forgive the woman prosecutor in the case, in which the first woman jury in Seattle sat, for not letting the case go to the jury just to see how many of the six came out with as much hair as they went in with. Dr. Brown, the well known dentist, has been named by the Socialists for mayor of Seattle in the recall election. Dr. Brown ought to be able from his extensive experience to extract the fangs from the octopus of Wappyville. From the number of endorsements State Highway Commissioner H. W. Bolby is getting just now it begins to look as if all of the opotition to him in the past had been murged into an Admiration society organized in his interest. If A. S. Glover is successful in completely establishing his legal right to that immense English estate, which has been accumulating for the past 150 years, he need not be a glover any longer, but for the balance of his life be a bloated bond holder. Senator Piles gives out the statement that the Alaska coal fields and mines must be opened up for development. Of course the coal mines of Alaska belongs to Senator Piles personally and for them to be opened up he has only to say the word. James D. Hoge, the well known Seattle banker has returned from a California trip, and is of the opinion there has not been many days during the present winter that Seattle folk have not spend $1,000 in the Palace hotel of San Francisco. Does that explain the hard times situation in Seattle? Senator Ruth kept his word and did not vote for Miles Poindexter for United States senator. It seems to us Senator Ruth is no bigger than his party and when his party said he should vote for Poindexter or any one else it was his duty to do as he had been commanded or throw up his job. Bat Nelson having failed to make any showing with the professional is now doing a monologue stunt in the New York vaudevilles and at the end of it challenges all comers in the audience for a bout to a finish. Bat always was a "has been" and he is even worse now than in his more palmy days. If reports be true Governor Hay is seriously considering Harold Preston as Judge Rudkin's successor on the supreme bench. While in another column hereof the name of John F. Main has been suggested, yet we are inclined to think no better man could be found for the place than Harold Preston if he will accept. The slush fund for the re-election of Gill is said to be considerably larger for the coming election than it was before and that is saying a good deal. Come to think this is a splendid time to work the slush fund racket for votes as it is said there are 5,000 unemployed in Seattle at present. Votes ought to come pretty cheap just now. It is said of Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, that when he started out in politics he was hailed as the Moses of the Negro race in that section, and to a man it rallied to his standard, but no sooner had he succeeded and got beyond their gunshot, he turned his guns on the men that gave him life and vitality in his inception. Unless we are very much mistaken Representative William Wray from the forty-third representative district of Washington has been reading the life and times of Senator Tillman and from it learned how it was done. --- PERSONS AND FACTS IN THE PUBLIC EYE 2 Among the recommendations of Governor Hay to the legislature now in session was one that prisoners be allowed fifty cents per day after they have served out their minimum sentence, and the same be sent to their families, who were dependent on them for maintenance before being sent to prison, or the amount be left in the office, in case they had no such dependents, and be given them when they will have been finally discharged from prison. The recomendation, to our mind, was good as large as it went, but did not go far enough. Every one convicted of a felony and sent to state prison should be placed at some kind of labor if nothing more than state road work, and for which such convict should be paid not less than one dollar per day, and two, if the work being performed will warrant such pay, and the same be sent to his family. It often happens that men are convicted of a felony and sent to the state prison and leaves a wife and a number of children to shift for themselves and before the father has served out his sentence his boy is likewise sent to the same institution for having stolen, which was the resultof a lack of the necessities of life. The state in trying to reform one person has made criminals out of many more. If on the other hand that father had been put at labor, from which he could have earned two dollars per day, the same would have enabled the mother to have supported and schooled the children and made good men and women of them. Placing a number of convicts in cells and then hiring their labor out to a lot of men, who speculate on their earnings, because they get it for a little or nothing, is criminal on the part of the state. In the state of Washington every man convicted of a felony could be put at labor that would be sufficiently remunerative to the state to pay such a convict wages that would keep the wolf from his family door, and yet the man be punished for the criminal act he had been found guilty of. The man found guilty of murder in the first degree, and sent to prison for life, should not be freed from the responsibility of maintaining either his wife and children or his aged mother and father that he, if not in prison, would be expected to support. He, too, should be given the same pay as if he expected to leave the walls at some time, and the same placed at the disposal of those whom he should support. While, we do not argue that convict labor should be put in competition with the labor of law abiding citizens, yet those convicts have to be supported, and if they have a wife and children, their children are entitled to the labors of their father the same as if a citizen and at large. If convict labor be placed at road building it need not come into contact with outside labor, but it can make things easy for the citizen to make even more money than he would under different circumstances. There are many things that convict labor can be put to doing that would make such institutions not only self-sustaining, but sufficiently remunerative to pay the families of the convict living wages. ANTI-RACE MARRYING It is perhaps a written law in every one of the Southern states, and if not a written law, a social law, almost involving the death penalty for a white and a black person to legally marry or to even co-habit in such a way as to show a social mingling of the races, but in spite of all that quite half of the "colored population" of those states are half breeds, the result of illicit relations between white men and colored women. There maybe isolated cases of the opposite sexes mingling, but if discovered the black man is always summarily lynched and as an excuse for the rash act he is charged with having outraged a white woan. In spite of that fearful punishment, halfbreed children occasionally come from that direction, but such children are at once given to some black mammy and its real mother is the same pure angel she was before the false step was made, and the child is said to be the offspring of some black woman with a white man. But these are facts so well known to every one who has lived in the South that they are not only ancient history, but not worth going over in this connection. If all of the southern states have made such masterly efforts to prevent the social mingling of the white and darker races and still the whole country is over run with half caste children does it not seem absolutely foolish for the legislature of the state of Washington to pass laws against the darker races intermarrying with the white race? The man that desires to go out of his race for a female companion will do so in spite of statutory laws, and when the legislature of the state makes it a felony for white persons to THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN marry colored persons, then it simply puts a premium on wholesale licentiousness. There have not been enough intermarrying between the whites and the darker races in this state to cause any alarm one way or the other. Until one or two white girls married Japanese, this question was never thought of, and that, too, in spite of the fact that hundreds of white men lived with Indian squaws, Japanese and Negro women, not only as their concubines, but as their legal wives. [Name not visible in the image] ALBERT J. GODDARD You and each of you know of Albert J. Goddard end you know of him because he has waged a relentless war on those men in a pool to rob the city of Seattle and the taxpayers out of thousands and perhaps millions of dollars. From time to time Mr. Goddard made the grafters uncomfortable and though he has not been able to wholly eliminate the graft system from the city, his relentless war on it has to an extent made it seek cover. His face was slapped on the floor of the city hall, yea in the council chamber and by the president of that body, because he made charges that seemed to involve the higher ups in the graft game that had been going on year in and year out. That Mr. Goddard was absolutely correct in making graft charges against the hundred and one regrade contracts that have been let in the city a great majority of the tax payers now verily believe, but it has been handled with such care and consideration that it is hard to get hold of the right end to start to unraveling the ball. He is still working on the knotty proposition and in the course of time it is firmly believed by those he has taken into his confidence that he will be able to show up the whole matter and expose the real grafters. Thousands and thousands of dollars have been expended by the city in the purchase of expensive automobiles which instead of being used in the interest of the city were used for joy riding by the city employees. Tuis form of graft and extravagance Mr. Golddard has for the past two years made war on and finally succeeded in having the city automobiles to an extent labelled so that they could be spotted when out joy riding. On the moral issues Albert Goddard has always been right and is therefore highly deserving of the support of the law abiding citizens of the city for the nomination and election that he is seeking in the coming primary and general election to be pulled off next March. He has made more than good for the three years he has been a member of the city council and he invites you to look carefully into his record berore casting a vote against him. How strange that it was not a dangerous practice for the races to mingle as man and wife as long as it was the white men seeking the colored women. The white women of this state are just as intelligent as the white men and they do not need any guardians to tell them who they shall marry, any more so than the white men. It is the rarest instance that you see in the state of Washington a black man seeking to be- FRIDAY, January 20, 1911 come the wife of a white woman for they a thousand times over prefer the woman of their own class and complexion, at least, partially so, although the white man has made it almost impossible in some instances for them to know whether they are marrying a white or a colored woman. If you prevent the marrying of the races by statute then at once concubinage between them will become common. One of the authors of the proposed law of preventing intermarrying in the state of Washington has argued in the legislative halls and likewise on the political stump against passing prohibition liquor laws and uses as an argument that when you say to a human being he or she shall not drink, then such person immediately decides to drink. In other words, it is impossible to legislate a human being into the practice of temperance. If this argument holds good in that one instance it will hold good in the race marrying instance. It does seems to us that the majority of the members of the legislature of the state now in session are men too broad in principle and too far removed from the dark ages of race into.lerance to burden the statute books with such a ridiculous and obnoxious law as the one proposed. So far as the Negro is concernrd he is a patriotic citizen of the United States and hopes to live peaceably by the side of his white neighbor and await the solution of this mooted race question by Him who has held the destinies of all mankind in the hollow of His hand since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary. This eternal stirring up animosity between the whites and the blacks has a most depressing effect upon the black folk and must be to the better element of the white folk and there is no good and sufficient reason for the question being injected into the affairs of this progressive state. If a white woman desires to marry a Japanese and finds it impossible to get a license in this state or some neighboring state the couple will at once hike to British soil where all races are permitted to marry as suit their own fancy, and the act will be done. How solicitious some of the members of the legislature seem to be about the offsprings coming from a white woman and a Japanese or Negro man, and yet the thousands and thousands of offsprings from white men and black women are looked upon as the strong men of the Negro race throughout the United States and are invariably selected as the leaders. It is a fact that the president of the United States rarely ever appoints a cold black man to a public office. It is said that 95 per cent of the Negroes employed in the various departments at Washington City are mulatoes and quadroons and even octoroons, thus showing that the whitos themselves give those halfbreeds the preference. To pass such a law would simply be an idiotic move and we hope it will not be done. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT Capital punishment is being vigorously attacked in the state of Washington just now and if the legislature acts favorably upon an enormous petition that will be sent to it in the very near future recommending that the capital punishment law be repealed, no more wilful murderers will be swung in the state for some time to come. As a precedent for this petition and prayer against the law the promoters cite the fact that the state of Kansas many years ago abolished capital punishment, and since that time the records do not show that any more murders have been committed in that state than in states where capital punishment is rigidly enforced. He, who so far loses control of his temper to want to take the life of a fellow being, will do so as quickly with the gallows hanging over his head as he would with only life imprisonment staring him in the face. Hanging does not deter one from taking human life. We rather sympathize with the efforts of having the legislature repeal the law, but we would like to see the person thereafter convicted of wilful murder sent to state prison for life and beyond the pardoning power of the governor or any pardoning board, unless it transpired that said person was not guilty of the crime. No human being, in our opinion, with or without the sanction of the law, has the right to take that which he cannot give, but the person who commits murder should have no rights of freedom among his fellow beings, and it should not be in the power of any one save by legislative act to restore such a moral cutcasts to those rights. Capital punishment is not only barbarous, but it does not lessen the number of murders committed. But a few days ago a girl grieved herself to death on account of the coming hanging of her father in the state of Oregon; while that is no very great argument against capital punishment, as she might have grieved herself to death over some other criminal act of her father, which would have incarcerated him in a prison cell for life, yet two lives will have been taken when the father is hanged, and still no one will be deterred from doing the same thing the father has done that brought this creat calamity upon himself and his children. As has already been said herein, we believe a person convicted of wilful murder should be sent to prison for the balance of their natural life, and that in repealing the capital punishment law another be enacted fixing life imprisonment on the guilty one and that such person shall never be pardoned by any governor or board of pardons unless some one is able to establish the absolute innocence of the party beyond a reasonable doubt. The mere fact that said person committed the act while temporarily insane or because insanity was common to the family or because said person was absolutely insane should be no reason for the said guilty person being pardoned or paroled from the state prison. If the deed was committed in a fit of violent passion then the person might the very next day have a similar attack and commit a like crime and to prevent the repition of it he should be placed in a prison cell, where the proper restraint would always be over him. If the person is of an insane family and the mania to kill showed itself in one instance it is perfectly natural for it to show itself in other instances, and such a person is always not only mentally irresponsible for his acts, but a real menace to those among whom he resides, hence life imprisonment should be his portion. COUNTY OPTION Superintendent Boyd P. Doty of the Anti-Saloon League no longer disguises the fact that, it his intention to place the state of Washington in the prohibition column, and he will be eminently satisfied to have the legislature pass the county unit law. State wide prohibition may prove to be the panacea for all the financial ills of the state, but it is seriously doubted, not by men who belly up to some saloon bar sixteen hours every day, but by real business men, who seldom if really ever take a drink of liquor in any shape, and all because it has been tried in other states and has not proven wholly successful. Six years ago the state of Oregon voted for the county option law and tried it for six long years, but at her last state election she voted down the county option law and the people adopted the municipal option law and the same is a part of their constitution. That law is now in operation in Oregon, but we are not going to say how well it is operating, because that is almost an unknown question just now, but men in other states, who are interested in the growth of their respective states, are watching it with a great deal of interest and among the citizens of other states that are watching it are to be found the real business men of the state of Washington. Now while Washington is watching the Oregon law go through its experimental stage, would it not be just as well to let her local option law go on as it is? Thus far is it not a fact that the Washington local option law is working very smoothly and nicely? Has it not made wet communities dry, and though it has made dry communities wet, yet the drys have had all the better of the contest and really they have no fault to find of the present law. For some reason just now there is a general complaint of hard times all over the state and just what to attribute the cause is more than the shrewdest business men can figure out, but it is. Now if the state by the present legislature is placed in the prohibition column it seems to us that it will further demoralize business and almost result in a general panic all over the state, which added to the present unsettled business conditions, would come very near bankrupting every man doing business in Washington. Sentiment is one thing and fact is another, and when you put sickly sentiment in the opposite scale of a balance against fact sentiment makes a mighty poor showing. There is no doubt in the eyes of every sensible man that the drink evil is greatly abused, not only in Washington, but all over the United States, and men, who have sense enough to know and do better, drink to an excess and make fools of themselves and paupers of their families, but we have known of men and families who ate in the same excessive manner and never had anything except what they ate at their meals, and so it is with anything that is taken to an excess. While Kansas may be getting along all right now with the state wide prohibition, yet even Superintendent Doty must admit that she underwent a long siege of hard times, when the state went dry. Every state that has adopted the prohibition law has swung to and fro on the subject and many that did adopt it, are THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN not either in the absoultely wet column or they have the local option law, such as is in existence in the state of Washington. In our opinion every community and municipality should have the right to decide by a majority of those living therein as to whether intoxicant liquors should be sold or not. The present local option law makes it possible for even Seattle to go dry if a majority of the voters of the community so desires, and that is our version of pronibition. But for one community, dry though it be, to say another community shall be dry because it is dry, is in our opinion, an intolerant idea and has no place in this age of liberal interpretation of right and wrong. If the constant agitation of any one subject is going to disrupt the business of the community, then such agitation should be stopped immediately if not sooner. [Name not visible in the image] EUGENE W. WAY Few if any members of the city council have done more effective work in that body than Eugene W. Way, who three years ago was elected a member thereof from the Second ward, and who was returned to the body one year ago without opposition at either the primary or the general election. Mr. Way is again seeking the nomination for a return to the same body and in doing so he invites the voters to look into his record as a member of the city council and if it does not justify them to vote for him at the coming primary and general election then he does not ask them to vote for him. Of course Mr. Way is to an extent opposed by the Gill administration and for no greater reason than because he has sought to prevent the city from being made a vice resort, where men were robbed by day and by night and the spoils divided up among those on the inside of the municipal game. Mayor Gill himself cannot deny that Mr. Way has made war against his wide open town policy from the very beginning of his administration and he has not let up a single day since that time, and therefore when the adherents of the Gill administration declare that Mr. Way only made war on the Gill wide open town policy, after Gill would not make him a part of the graft gang, it is so thin that one can see through it without even an x-ray machine. The fact of the matter is the Gill gang would have willingly divided up the spoils with Councilman Way, if he had shown any willingness to accept a divy. We some times tell a falsehood so often and with such vociferousness that we sooner or later make ourselves believe that it is a real truth, and that seems to be the case with the Gill gang in telling this Way falsehood. Mr. Way lead the fight on the restricted district and repeatedly said, "Why have a restricted district for fallen women any more than to have a restricted district for fallen men, such as ex-convicts and murderers." THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN verily believes that if the good citizens of Seattle will look carefully into the record that Mr. Way has made both in the city council and in the civic welfare organization, in which he has always been an active member they will give him their votes.

"It is a fact that I have ordered the cases in court against the recall move to be withdrawn as I propose to go before the people and make a clean fight on my record," came from Mayor Gill one day this week. If the mayor had have done this in the very outset we believe he would have made votes for his cause. In bringing his suits he has used the federal court as a cat's paw, and whether the opinion was or was not good law, there is no denying the fact the Gill adherents used that court to pull their chestnuts out of the fire and they had no sooner dane that then they began to make preparations to have the cases dismissed.

AMUSEMENTS "The Golden Giant Mine" will be the play at the Alhambra Theatre next week, starting Sunday, with Miss Emma Bunting in the character of Bess Fairfax, the sister of Alex Fairfax, "The Golden Giant" who becomes the bride of the gentleman gambler, Jack Mason. The play was presented here before by Miss Bunting, under the title of "The Gambler." The version next week will be more complete than the former, for the manu- neys were running around for two days offering some disinterested attorney $100 to appear in the case and go before Judge Hanford and ask for a dismissal and all because they feared the judge would conclude that his court had been used as a convenience, and go up in the air and give the whole outfit a ripping up such as they never before received. There is no doubt but that the Giil advocates were sparring for wind when they went into the federal court for relief and they meant to tie up the matter in the courts regardless of what Judge Hanford's decision might have been. But the boys are ready for the scrap now and it is said the largest purse that has ever been raised in the West for the election of a mayor is now in hand and those favoring a wide open town are ready to meet the nominee of the Welfare Legue in the arena, believing they will be able to beat him even at his own game. It was thought first that they would try to head off the legislation that has recently passed the legislature for relief in nominating an opposing candidate, but they concluded that too, might prove another boomerang for them and they like the court cases dropped it, and as said above are ready for the battle as soon as the opposition is ready to pull it off.

What Mr. Blaine has done in the city council in the way of exposing vice and crime protected by the minions of the law is known to every man, woman and child in the state of Washington much less Seattle, and he, therefore, needs no great introduction to the voters nor any great amount of boosting even by those papers inclined to support him. His record is not only an open book, but it is in the hands of every one in the city, and the most of the voters know at this time whether or not he has warranted their support for the nomination and election he is now seeking. The mere fact that the Seattle Daily Times editorially declares that it proposes to drive Mr. Blaine out of the town where he has spent the greater part of his life, and the town where no man can rightfully accuse him of having done any man a wrong, is sufficient excuse for peaceful law abiding citizens to give him their support. Some how or other Colonel Blethen, the editor of the Times, has found it convenient to leave every town in which he has lived and in some of them for years after hurriedly leaving he did not dare to show his face in less the minions of the law unsolicited provide a comfortable place for him to rest his weary bones, and that, too, without either cost to himself or the Times Publishing Company. In some of those places he for a time "run the town," just as he is now running Seattle, but it did not last long and he was soon moving on. Evidently that thing happened to the colonel so often that he has concluded that he will be able to drive E. L. Blaine out of the city, but, unless we mistake the temperament of the law abiding citizens of Seattle, he will not defeat him for either the nomination or the election to the city council. It was at the request of Senator Allen that President Paulhamus did not name him on more committees than he did. He writes this office and says: "My assignments are eminently satisfactory to me and as chairman of the committee on State Granted School and Tide Lands I have all the committee work I can look after." There is no longer any doubt but that the Elkins family has a strong call on the Republican party of West Virginia as the governor of that state has just named Dave Elkins, son of the old man, as United States senator to succeed his father, thus making the third generation to hold the position. Mrs. Eddy's heirs-at-law are trying to prevent the church from having what Mrs. Eddy left for it and yet the church is only getting its own as it was the church that gave her all she had. These heirs are trying to get something that did not rightly belong to neither Mrs. Eddy nor to themselves. Senator Nelson of Minnesota has introduced a bill in the senate for the government to lease the coal lands of Alaska and we suppose he will see to it that those leasing the lands will not pay to exceed three cents per acre for the same. The coal barons need the money and Senator Nelson is averse to them suffering. Pass the bill. In it is depicted with the simplicity of genius the struggles of a young sister to care for her two brothers, retain possession of a mine, amongst a hotbed of sharks, and eke out an honorable existence. A compromising position places her in a false light and some scenes of tremendous strength are enacted. Ethel Clifton was originally engaged by Walter Lawrence the manager of "The Three of Us," in New York to play this role, and made a splendid impression in the part. Joseph Galbraith has a strong, rugged and manly part and will make a splendid impression in it. Frank Denithorne has one of the best heavy roles of his season at the Seattle, and other members of the Baker Company are happily placed. "The Three of Us" has been selected from quite a few plays as the most desirable to follow "On the Quiet" and opens at the customary Sunday matinee, Jan. 22nd. FRIDAY. January 20. 1911 EDITOR SEATTLE REPUBLICAN: I have with considerable interest followed the comment of the paper concerning the ruling of Judge Handford, and I am led to believe that an injusctice has been done to an able, upright judge and a most worthy and loyal citizen. If I understand the conditions correctly, a petition or complaint was filed in Judge Hanford's court praying for an injuncting to restrain the payment of money to defray the expense of a recall election. Numerous grounds were alleged by the petitioner, but from my view of the case, became immaterial except only the sufficient facts charging fraud and illegality were set forth. On this petition, Judge Hanford issued an order for the defendants to show cause why a temporary injunction should not be granted and a date was set for hearing. Now when the case was called to be heard on the "show cause" order, the attorneys for the defendants filed a general demurer. Now a demurrer may be proper in such a case, but the attorney who files one in such a case takes desperate chances and the only safe practice is to do as defendants were ordered, show cause why the temporary injunction should not be granted. Judge Hanford held, and very prpoperly, too, that whether the allegations be true or not, they showed as stated, sufficient matter to require an investigation. Such being the case, demurrer was overuled, the defendants were in default. They were ordered to show cause and showed nothing. Defendants were wholly in default and if courts are to follow the recognized practice, Judge Hanford could do nothing else but grant a temporary injunction and when the defendant's attorneys saw fit to show cause as ordered, then the whole matter would be investigated. The truth of the matter is that the attorneys for the defendants, like Casey in the football game at Mudville, "went the wrong way." They should set up their claims of legality and in the same return they could have properly told the court that the allegations in the complaint were not sufficient and then Judge Hanford would have fixed a day for hearing and I doubt not would refused a temporary and finally a permanent injunction. It is wrong to criticise Judge Hanford for the negligence of the attorneys for the defendant, and that is just what was done in this case. A. G. McBRIDE. ADVOCATES PROBATING CONVICTS The spirit of a newer justice is abroad in the state of Washington which in its adoption in the courts of about thirty states of the Union, has fully justified its faith by its work. The system of probation, as a substitute for punishment, has taken root, and is being advocated by some of the most brilliant jurists of this state and was recently taken up briefly in a lecture given here by Judge A.

Odessa Record. LEGAL NOTES Making Patented Inventions It is a wide spread idea that one has a right to make a patented invention without the consent of the patentee, for his personal use only, and not for sale to others. This is entirely incorrect. The patent law grants to the patentee and those holding under him the exclusive right to the manufacture, use, and sale of the patened invention. No one has the right to make a patented thing for his own use. As a matter of fact, it has been held an infringement to make a patented article, although it was never used by the maker. The courts have gone so far as to hold that a devise constructed originally not to infringe, but with the intent that by the wear When Judge Rudkin retires from the state supreme bench The Seattle Republican rises to suggest that Governor Hay name Judge John F. Main of the King county superior court as his successor. Judge Main gives evidence of being possessed of equally as strong a legal mind as that of Judge Rudkin and the two men seem to work along similar lines. Judge Main is perhaps the hardest student of the entire superior court bench of Seattle and his opinions always show the care and precision he has run down every legal phase of the case. On the state supreme bench King county has but one member and in view of the fact that she has one-third of all the cases that that court is called upon to decide it seems that it would not be out of order to give her a larger representation on the bench. 5 ing of its parts it should become an infringement, is an infringement. X-Ray Evidence An entirely new use has been found for the X-ray machine, namely in acquiring evidence. The case was that of Browder versus Commonwealth, 123 Southwestern Reporter, 328. A Negro was on trial for shooting and killing a white man. He did not deny the shooting, but claimed he had shot in self-defense. The deceased after the shooting had a pistol. Defendant claimed that he had been shot in the breast by the decaased, which was the beginning of the difficulty. It would necessarily follow that if the defendant was shot, and if he could affirmatively prove it, then a case of self-defense would be clearly established. Accused moved for a continuance in order that he might be examined with the X-ray by a physician to show that he was snot in the breast and that the bullet had lodged in his back. The court on appeal held that defendant on return of the case might be taken from jail to an X-ray machine and examined; for this fact, if proved, would strengthen his testimony as to what occurred at the time of the homicide. Bleached Flour Process Held Illegal Shawnee Milling Company versus Temple, 179 Federal Reporter 517, is a suit in equity to restrain certain United States officials from seizing complainant's flour in interstate shipments under the national pure food law. The allegations are that the same is not harmful, but is more nutritious, wholesome, and attractive for making bread, and does not come under the ban of the pure food law. The flour was found to have been bleached by the agency of nitrogen peroxide gas under a patented process. The result is that new wheat and of an inferior quality is converted into flour with the appearance of flour from a better wheat that has been aged by time. Two processes are patented to produce this result, the Andrews and the Alsop. Under the Andrews the nitrogen peroxide gas is produced by combining nitric acid with a metallic compound. Under the Alsop it is produced by subjecting atmospheric air to a flaming electric arc. It is claimed by some that nitrogen peroxide is the agent for bleaching under both patents, while others claim that it is the ozone that does the effective work, while the nitrogen peroxide is a by-product when the ozone is thereby created. Whatever the truth as to what does the bleaching, it is both claimed and denied by chemists who ought to be able to agree that the flour is poisoned by such process. But if it is known that, after the air is thus subjected to continuons flaming electrical discharges, the resultant gas is conveyed by means of pipes to a compartment, and there is conningling with the flour agitated or in a cloud, and thus subjected to such treatment it becomes dry and white.—Scientific American. EE EE THOMAS P. REVELLE A CANDIDATE Thomas P. Revelle, the man who beat Representa- tive Humphrey nearly two to one in King county for congress, and who has twice been elected a member of the city council, is announcing his candidacy for another nomination and election at the coming prim- ary and general election in March. It was Tom Re- velle that fathered the first public market in Seattle that has proved to be such a saving to the citizens of the whole city and community. Every man and wom- an, who visits the public market, where they can buy vegetables and hundreds of other necessities at quite less than half what the same articles are sold for in the various corner grocercies and stores, should be ready and willing for that and for that alone to give him their vote. You and all of us know that it has been a God send to the city and we should not hesitate to give honor to those whom honor is due for the goods the gods pro- vide. From time to time the vice advocates have taken pleasure in trying to have a bit of fun at Mr. Revelle’s expense for him having quit the minis- terial work and gving into politics just as though the political profession was one of highway robbery. As a preacher he was upright and honest and as a politi- cian he has likewise been honest and he defies the hu- man being to point his finger to one questionable act he has done since he was a member of the coun- cil. Because Mr. Humphrey accused him of being the tool of the Seattle Electric Company in the city coun- cil cost Mr. Humphrey the loss of King county; even persons in the Seattle Electric Company, always ar- dent supporters of Mr. Humphrey, worked against him on account ot the villainous accusation. Mr. Re- velle’s work on the investigation committee was thor- ough and consistent, and though he was prevailed upon by thousands of persons to at least temper the final report of the committee so as to exonerate Gill and his chief of police he unqualifiedly refused and said he would make a report in keeping with the facts, which had been told tothe committee. It is to be hoped that Mr. Revelle will get the vote of every dec- ent man and woman in the city in both elections. “Are you an experienced avi- ator?’’ ‘* Well, sir, I have been at it six weeks and I am all here.”’ —Life, Blabb—Why do large women so often marry small men?
