The stock of the Independent system has been purchased by the stockholders of the Pacific Staces system and the Independent system sooner or later is to be put out of business. While, however, the Independent system is being slowly put to death, the Pacific States system is doing a bit of frenzied financiering. The latter system has a perpetual franchise and the right to charge as much as it pleases for the use of its instruments, while the former system can only charge a stipulated sum for its instruments. Now, in order to have the people themselves administer the death dealing blow to the Independent system, the service is to be made so ridiculous that those who have instruments will order their removal, and those who apply for their installation will never be able to get any consideration. Not less than a thousand Independent instruments will be removed at the end of the present month. In the meantime, the Pacific States company is boosting its prices onward and upward by leaps and bounds, and it is but a matter of a short time before you will be paying as much for the Pacific States instruments as you have been paying for both of the the phones. Is it not time to talk municipal ownership for telephone system? THAT NAVAL INSULT It striks us that the wearing of the uniform of Uncle Sam must have a head swelling effect on some of the officers in the army and navy, if half that has been published by the Times concerning the alleged snub Mayor George W. Dilling is said to have given the officers of the Maryland and the West Virginia while they were in the Seattle harbor not long since. Those parasites have gotten it into their heads that everybody and his brother must make of themselvs bowing apes, when they come round, and hand to them the keys to their homes for their use at pleasure, and if that is not done, then they have been snubbed, and for the alleged snub, shore leave is denied to the crews while in port near such town. If less attention was given to the social features in the army and navy more efficient soldiers and sailors would make up Uncle Sam's fighting forces. Because, forsooth, Mayor Dilling did not have time to put on a swallow tail coat and go through a lot of monkey and parrot antics, the officers got even by not permitting the sailors to spend a part of their earnings in Seattle doing the high time stunt in the saloons and resorts of the city. If the price to be paid for the expenditure of a few dirty dollars is to be the sacrifice of the mayor's manhood and his right to select his own company, then let her go Gallagher, for Murphy is dead. An old adage runs, "talk is cheap," and there may be places where it still holds good, but the person with a Sunset telephone in his home or office in Seattle knows that talk is the most expensive luxury about the "ranch." SEATTLE, WASHJNGTON. FRIDAY, MARCH 24, 1911 TACOMA'S ANTI-TREAT ORDINANCE The anti-treat ordinance, which has been passed by the voters of Tacoma, is a good thing, though the devil may have brought it. Mayor Fawcett may not have meant well when he sprung the thing on an unsuspecting public, but he built better than he had planned, for the commissioners. on the referendum idea passed it up to the voters of the city to decide, and they gave it a two to one majority. The treat habit is more responsible for the drunken excess common to this country than the stuff the treaters get drunk on. Two is a company and three a crowd and when two men drop into a saloon to treat each other it may end in a dozen or more leaving that saloon as full as goats before closing time. If the crowd happens to number ten or more, its generally two or three treats round with the "house" thrown in, before the crowd disperses and by the time that has been done the most of them have to be taken home or to some hotel in a taxicab. It is almost unprecedented for one man to go into a saloon and stand up at the bar until he gets beastly drunk, and yet there are cases of it. There may be a little less booze sold over the bar, but the good arising from the enforcement of the ordinance will be almost as beneficial to the dispensers of vinous and malted liquors as to the persons who make hogs of themselves. The average American has learned to not only drink all kinds of intoxicating beveragee, but has learned to do so in excess, and that is largely responsible for the universal fight upon it. Hundreds of families would not object to having a case of beer or wine sent to their homes if the whole thing had not been beastalized by the "treat" gang, who spend their evenings with the boys in some corner saloon with, "you tickle me and I'll tickle you," until all of them are beyond the place to know whether they are being tickled or mauled to death with a hickory club, which they richly deserve. An anti-treat ordinance might not be a bad thing for Seattle. OUR EX-PRESIDENTS Ex-President Roosevelt comes to California in the character of a publicist and lecturer, a professional type made familiar to this generation by the career of Mr. William J. Bryan, who has not only sestained his fame—such as it is—by it, but has grown rich out of it. It is a legitimate occupation and one, we are bound to say, for which Mr. Roosevelt has qualifica in many respects similar to those of Mr. Bryan. It may be of interest to review the occupations in which our ex-Presidents, since the foundation of the government, have interested themselves. Washington returned to his potomac plantation and gave his energies to agriculture. John Adams went home to Massachusetts and devoted himself to literary leisure, including the study of political questions. Thomas Jefferson devoted himself to the cause of public education, became a species of political sage and died poor. Madison, who had a generous private fortune, lived quietly among his books. John Q. Adams came to congress from Massachusetts, and after a service of seventeen years, during which he fought on the one hand for the right of petition and on the other for human liberty, died in the capitol. Jackson lived a long and busy life on his plantation near Nashville, diligently pursuing the occupations of a farmer and never offering to mingle in politics. Van Buren never engaged in any business, but continued a quiet factor in politics. Tyler returned to his farm in Virginia and died while serving as a member of the Confederate Congress. Polk took no part in business affairs after leaving the White House, although he was planning to re-enter politics when he died. Fillmore lived a life of social and literary ease at his home in Buffdlo, again being a candidate for the presidency on the Know Nothing ticket in I860. Pierce spent the remainder of his life in foreign travel and later became a senator from Tennessee, but died not long after taking his seat. Buchanan lived through the Civil War, but took no part in political or other activities. Grant went into financial business and wrecked his fortunes, but recouped them for the benefit of, his family by VOLUME XVII. NUMBER 43 authorship. He ventured again into politics, but was defeated in his candidacy for a third presidential nomination. Arthur planned to re-enter the practice of law, but death came to break his plans. Hayes retired to private life and to educational work. Harrison resumed the practice of law. Cleveland became an educator and a publicist—the latter in the limited and highest sense.—San Francisco Argonaut. EDITORIAL EDICTS From dispatches from across the sea, Irondale is to have Moore money for fuel for the flames. Teddy announces he is against the recall of judges. Does that mean that Teddy is tiring of his socialistic hobby? Treat your friend like a dirty dog, if you like, but in Tacoma do not treat him to a beer, or you may get a free ride. Wonder if "Kurnel the Kulprit" is a member of the Uneasy Club of King county? He may not be, but he acts like it. As to whether a civilian can insult the uniform of Uncle Sam all depends on whether the man wearing it is white or black. There is certainly some one in the state who thinks the twelfth legislature did good work, but thus far we have not met with such an one. Both Hillman and Wappenstein are to be admired for the readiness with which they can put up large bonds. Only men with the money and the friends can do those things. Since Hilmlan has been convicted it has not been reported that he has tried to bribe Judge Donworth, but doubtless Hillman is not to blame for that comcial oversight. With not a dollar's appropriation to the credit of the state highway commission, what's the use of Governor Hay appointing a highway commissioner, unless he desires a friend to get the salary. Why does not the U. S. district attorney for Western Washington take a fall out of the telephone trust in Seattle just now as it seems to be the most flagrant and vicious trust in operation the Northwest. If it be true that the black on the Negro, by coming in contact with it, will, to any extent, rub off, Uncle Sam's treasury certificate will be a bit off color when James C. Napier, the Negro, takes over the office. Some of our exchanges in speaking of the appointment of W. H. Lewis as assistant attorney general of the United States place more stress upon the salary he will get than on the duties he will have to perform. Secretary Ballinger may have been made the goat of the Taft administration, as has been suggested by the White River Journal, but we suspect B'rer Ballinger would reply to the Journal's comment, "it never touched me." Despite the numerical strength of the Smith family, and especially in Seattle, those of them who sought office went dawn and out, but one getting near enough to landing to be even seen. You may be numerous, but not enough so to get all the offices. Just to keep our hands in and perhaps give the "new woman" ample schooling in how to vote, Seattle is to have another election in May to vote on the question of bonding the city to the extent of $500,000 for an art and museum building. Just keep up bonding the city, and within a few years more what is now prosperous Seattle will be nothing more or less than a municipal museum with "Dead Broke" as her center piece. --- PERSONS IN THE PUBLIC EYE WORLD'S SCIENTIFIC NOTES 2 Ira D. Bronson, Sr., one of Seattle's well known business men, died last Sunday and was buried Tuesday. He was well and favorably known for his sterling business qualities and left a record from early manhood to almost the very day of his death to which his children can point with pride. His sons, who live in Seattle and Tacoma, respectively, Ira D. and Charles, are both men of splendid qualifications and stand in the front ranks of the business men of both cities. --- John Cort, the Northwest theatrical magnate, left for New York last Wednesday to be absent from the city for a period of four weeks. Mr. Cort is one of the busiest men that live in Seattle and while he is in the city every minute of his time is taken up attending to business pertaining to his theatrical affairs. --- Samuel L. Lemmon, who aspired to the appointment of United States marshal for Western Washington, but who fell short of the proper endorsement, spent the winter in Washington City and returned to Seattle a few days ago. It was predicted when he left for the East that he would be able to land some other position while in Washington, but if he did it has not shown above the horizon as yet. WO An ozone-producing electric fan, now being made in Vienna, utilizes Dr. Franz Fischers's novel discovery that when air is much heated and then suddenly cooled ozone is produced. A combination of small flywheel and air-fan is driven by an electric motor, and sucks in air and sends it through a kind of funnel to a Nernst radiator, giving a heat of two thousand degrees C. The heated current is cooled by mixing with the air into which it is then forced. Of the oxygen passed through, about four per cent is ozonized, and this proportion cannot be exceeded, so there is no risk of an excessive production of ozone. A single piece of apparatus, weighing not more than thirty pounds and needing but a small amount of power, is sufficient to purify the air of a large hall. ```markdown ``` The downpour of rain that some times follows a flash of lighting is usually supposed to be due to the coalesence of fine drops on losing their electrical charge, but Laine, a Finnish observer, has found reason to adopt a new theory. He concludes that the thunder jars the drops together. Near Vaas, a heavy thunderstorm came up from the east late one August afternoon, and as the sun was unclouded, a brilliant double rainbow appeared in the east for half an hour, arching from horizon to horizon. At each roll of thunder the rainbows seemed to me much shoken, the edges being blurred. This could not be due to the lightning, and it seemed that the same cause might enlarge the raindrops and disturb the rainbows. --- The first sun picture was taken by Mr. Thomas Wedgewood in the year 1793. It represents a Savoyard piper. In 1840 a gold watch was made for the Sultan of Turkey, which was five inches in diameter and cost more than six thousand dollars. Lake Huron holds a curious record in having more islands than any other lake. It has at least three thousand. --- An alternating current of electricity plunges back and front through the filament in an incandescent lamp 120 times a second. The value of the output of Quebec's mines has more than doublef in ten years, from $2,549,076 in 1900 to $5,552,062 last year. The Witwatersand district of South Africa is said to be the greatest gold-producing center of the world at the present time. --- A large prrportion of the so-called Holland flowering bulbs imported into this country every year in reality comes from the south of France. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SONS IN THE PUBLIC Former United States Senator John L. Wilson, who has been East for some weeks is still at the home of his mother, who is seriously ill, and will not return until her condition changes. 0 Lee A. Johnson, one of the leading lights of Eastern Washington, has begun to feel his way among the politicians of the state preparatory to announcing his candidacy for governor. 0 Governor Hay is halting between two opinions as to whether to call an extra session of the legislature or not. He is willing to call the extra session providing the legislature will do one thing and then adjourn, but unless he gets a pledge from a majority of the members to that effect he will not call it, and in that he is wise. John D. Atkinson, former attorney general of the state of Washington, who is temporarily residing in Tacoma, was among the visitors to Seattle last Tuesday and says he will soon move back to Seattle and will open offices here with the view of operating in mines in Alaska. The surface soil and rock have been removed from a big Pennsylvania anthracite mine, and the coal is now easily taken out by steam shovels. A distinguished Vienna physician has attributed the increase in diseases of the respiratory organs to the growing practice among men of going clean shaven. --- Experts have estimated the waters of the state of Washington as capable of producing 3,000,000 horsepower, of which but 163,000 horse power has been harnessed. The Hawaiian islands of Lanai. which has been practically barren for several years, will be reclaimed by a water conservation system and devoted to sugar beet culture. Next to the Washington monument, the new Pilgrim's monument at Cape Cod, Mass., which is 272 feet high, is the loftiest structure of soid masonry on this continent. The British Weights and Measures Association is receiving much encouragement in its campaign for the 112, pound hundredweight in the United Kingdom. Both Harvard and John Hopkins Universities are trying to find out whether the education as animals is accomplished by the gift of imitation or the force of instinct.

Washington may be drifting prohibitionward, but one thing certain there will be nothing doing along that line for nearly two years more. Timber is protected from dry rot and insect attacks by boiling it and allowing it to cool in and absorb a saccharine solution by a new process that comes from Australia.

An automobile street sweeper in use in Paris is provided with a water tank for sprinkling just ahead of the broom, which is revolved by the motor instead of by the rear wheels, as usual. EYE George W. Jeffries, twice elected a member of the legislature of the state of Washington from Seattle, will temporarily move to Valdez, Alaska, where he hopes to recuperate the losses he sustained in politics. Its not so much as to "what the Chamber of Commerce has done and is doing for Seattle," as what it has not done and the amount it has cost to do what it did do. In other words is it an expensive luxury? 0 Richard Achilles Ballinger is expected home today, (Friday), and a great demonstration is being prepared for his coming by many of the business men of the city. He will, as soon as he gets his bearings, take up the practice of law and perhaps give up politics for all time to come. 0 James Brown, the well known Olympia newspaper correspondent, was among those visiting the Hub city this week. Mr. Brown is an attache of the office of State Land Commissioner Ross, and makes no bones in saying all of the accusations against his chief are absolutely false and in fact without foundation. Despite the fact that it possesses coal fields covering more than 4,100 square miles, Spain imports more than $10,000,000 worth of fuel each year. --- The increasing use of oil fuel in the British navy has so polluted some of England's harbors that special regulations have been adapted governing its use while a vessel is in port. Much cigarette paper is made from waste untarred hemp rope. The telegraph companies of the United States employ about 30,000 persons. Germany is experimenting with glass telephone poles, reinforced with wire. There is an average to about one cow to every five persons in the United States. The British admiralty has developed a system of wireless telegraphy for submarines. While French railroad builders were digging a tunnel recently a fossil stag was unearthed in clay 100 feet below the surface of the ground. Syria is soon to have its first telephone system linking the towns in the Lebanon mountains. Indians of the Upper Amazon have developed "wireless telegraphy" by means of drums made of hollow logs tuned to varying pitches. —Opportunitiess.

The Seattle Republican would appreciate a legal publication from you and guarantee to make you as low a rate as any like publication. Phone Main 305 and it will do the rest. FRIDAY March 24. 1911 Speaking about candidates for governor, here are a few of those who have already partially announced their candidacies: Gov. M. E. Hay, Spokane; Howard D. Taylor, Otto A. Case, and Robert T. Hodge, all of King county, and Lee A. Johnson, of Yakima county. This, under no cinrcumstances, constitute anything like all of the aspirants for the nomination, but it will give the reader some idea of how things are drifting in that direction. It will be observed that M. E. Hay is already holding down the position and he is not leaving a stone unturned to succeed himself. Aside from the patronage of his office to strengthen up his political fences he is the acknowledged leader of the anti-saloon forces of the state and it is conceded by even liquor dealers that the state seem a bit inclined to the prohibition side of the house just now and with the women voting, if the Seattle election is any criterion in that direction, it looks as if Gov. Hay will get the almost unanimous woman vote. He is well supported by leading newspapers of the state and especially daily papers. It is barely possible that he will be warmly supported by the Spokesman-Review, he being a resident of Spokane, and has always been more or less in accord with the political policy of the Review. He will, unless, some unforeseen break occurs, be supported by the Perkins press and it is the concensus of opinion that the Post-Intelligencer is favorable to his candidacy. It must be admitted that he has a strong line-up and will be a most formidable candidate. Howard D. Taylor, speaker of the house of representatives of the twelfth legislature, rather reticently announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for governor just as the legislative session was closing and it was well received, at least by the members and the lobby that were watching the body draw its last breath. Taylor is not exactly a wet nor a dry candidates, but he will get a great many votes from both sides. He will doubtless receive the united lumbermen's support, which will prove a strong spoke in the political wheel. He will be without very much newspaper support, unless it comes from the Times, which both he and his political advisor frankly admit, would be like placing a millstone about his neck and throwing him into the sea with the admonishment, swim to the shore. County pride will not cut much ice in his vote, as there will be two other, and perhaps even more, county candidates for the same nomination. Seattle's new city council is rapidly getting down to smooth running order. It was organized with Max War- Seattle's new city cou smooth running order. It dall as president and by naming each of the members as chairman of some committee of some important branch of the city work he seems most familiar, thus giving the present administration a healthful and prosperous air. Mr. Wardall has had considerable experience in the council and if he combines his experience with his ability he will make a splendid presiding officer. Wardall is one of the three-year men and he is hoping to cut his cards to SINCE 1890 hoping to cut his cards to MAX WARDALL. hold the presidency during his incumbency of the office, although Erickson is equally ambitions and hopes to succeed Wardall at the end of the first year. * * * Otto A. Case, auditor of King county, is a candidate for the gubernatorial nomination and of course will have some little political strength, but by no means enough votes to come within a ten-mile stretch of the nominating gate. Case was twice elected county clerk and once county auditor of King county, and at each election showed he was more or less popular with the voters, but his success swelled his head and he has developed into a political nuisance. If he steps out of the race for auditor of King county he can put it in his pocket that he is in line to step down and out of politics, which he richly deserves. ```markdown ``` If Lee A. Johnson of Yakima gets into the gubernatorial fight as he is now threatening to do he will prove Gov. Hay's most serious antagonist, for he will divide the anti-saloon vote with Hay and is perhaps as popular, if not more so, in the bunch-grass counties. He would in all human probability duplicate the Cosgrove campaign, which would bring to him a great deal of scattering strength. He would be backed by Senator Miles Poindexter, who is bitterly opposed to Gov. Hay. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN AMONG THE POLITICIANS [Name] HOWARD D. TAYLOR Candidate for Governor. Robert T. Hodge, who has been twice elected sheriff of King county, and showed a great deal of strength, will seek the nomination for governor. He has nothing to back his aspirations for the office save his over-supply of ego. He is a man with no more fitness for governor than a government mule. Bob is without educational qualifications and totally lacking in common civility among those he meets from time to time. Those who voted for him for sheriff would no more think of voting for him for governor than they would for president of the United States, and yet if you would ask Bob of his fitness for president he would reply: "Taft is a muttonhead in comparison to the administration I would give the country." And he really believes that in being twice elected sheriff of King county he is in line to be nominated and elected President of the United States. --- If the statesman germ continue to sprout and spring up the gubernatorial crop in the state of Washington will be very prolific next year. Accord- ing to the Times, State Senator A. S. Ruth of Olympia has announced his candidacy for the Republican gubernatorial nomination to succeed Governor Hay and proposes to make a Cosgrove campaign in order to make more certain his nomination. Presumably Senator Ruth will be backed by the liberal element and in that case it will precipitate a straight fight between the wets and drys of the state with Ruth sponsor for the wets and Hay sponsor [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie]. A. S. RUTH for the drys. If the wets get lead into a fight like that they will be skinned so badly that they will not know they also ran. Seeator Ruth is a very able debator, and to our mind, presents his case at the bar of the senate better than any other man that has ever sat in the Washington legislature with perhaps the bare exception of Senator Cotterill. In Thurston county, for some unaccountable reason, he is rather popular but thus far and no further. In the other counties of this state he is looked upon as a coarse, vulgar politician, all the same Hi Gill of Seattle, and then add to his natural short comings the load of favoring an almost unchecked policy for the saloons and dives of the state, and it is safe to say under such circumstances he would be beaten four to one by Governor Hay. 3 W. R. White, of Olympia, has been named by Governor Hay as highway commissioner to succeed H. L. Bolby, whose teem has just expired. A splendid salary awaits Mr. White, but he will have little or nothing to do save draw his salary, as the legislature made no provisions for the prosecution of the highway work of the state. But for two years he can put in his time studying conditions which may be very necessary, but of course, in case a new governor is elected he will be removed as has been Bolby on account of petty desentions in the administration. --- King Dykeman and Rebert W. Prigmore have been named by Governor Hay as judges for the two new places created by the late lamented legislature and they doubtless will assume their duties on the bench about April 1st. King Dykeman is one of the most popular young attorneys in the city of Seattle and his appointment has been foreshadowed by almost every one since it became an established fact that the new places would be created. He is president of the Young Men's Republican Club of Seattle and has always taken an active interest in the politics of the state and county. --- Robert Prigmore was not looked upon in the outset as a formidable candidate for favor at the governor's hand in this particular, but his stock took an upward bound, and by last Saturday it seemed a foregone conclusion that he, too, would be appointed. It is said that H. A. P. Myers had the call for the appointment had he have cared to accept it, but he did not care to divorce himself from his private practice for the honor. Prigmore is considered by those who have an opportunity to judge him to be one of the safest and most conservative attorneys in the city and possessing a splendid judicial mind. It is predicted that both of the appointees will give splendid satisfaction and the governor will never have cause to regret his actions. Col. George B. Lamping, who for a number of years, has been the domineering spirit in the National Guard of Washington, has withdrawn from the Guard for all time to come and in withdrawing he uses the rather laconic but forceful language of, "I want to wash my hands clean of the whole mess." It is to be regretted that the governor and all the rest of the officers of the tin soldier brigade do not follow in the wake of Colonel Lamping. --- Two candidates for sheriff of King county has already announced themselves in the persons of Jack Stringer, chief deputy under Sheriff Hodge, and Matt Starvitch, a field deputy, located at Ravensdale. The first stock production of Dunstin Farnum's romantic play of the good old Mississippi river boat days, "Cameo Kirby," will be given by the Landers-Stevens Company all week starting with today's matinee at the Seattle Theatre. In theme and style "Cameo Kirby" is in a class by itself. It is picturesque and romantic and deals with the old days now gone forever, depicting the scenes and characters made so famous in Mark Twain's delightful story "Life on the Mississippi." The title role Kirby, called "Cameo Kirby" because of his custom of wearing cameos, was one of the class of gentleman gamblers who made their living by traveling up and down the river on the palatial steamers and playing cards. This role will be played by Landers Stevens who is most admirably fitted to it, while the charming part of Adele Randall, will be in the bands of Miss Georgia Cooper. Adele's father is despoiled of his large estate by a Colonel Moreau and commits suicide. Suspicion is thrown onto STATE BANK OF SEATTLE—Yesler Way and First avenue; capital $100,000.00; E. L.

Dixon, Vice President; J. H. Morris, Cashier. One of the very popular judges of King county, threatens to resign from the bench on account of the inadequacy of the salary, which is $4,000 annually. The times and the customs how changed from the times and customs of Judge Gay's father, when $4,000 annually would have meant a fortune to any one so fortunate as to receive such. It is a lamentable fact that the superior court judges and likewise the most of the officials of King county are underpaid in comparison to what men of like capabilities in private practice and business are paid for their services, and the recent legislature deserves the everlasting censure of the tax payers for not raising the salaries of the judges and officials of counties of the first class so that men of ability and experience might find the salary of sufficient inducement for them to accept and hold the positions. Not only Judge Gay, but other members of the King county superior court, who, it is alleged, will soon resign and therefore, almost demoralize the present status of the bench and all because members of the bar, who practice before them, are able to sport automobiles, when out with their families on Sundays and evenings, while the judges have to walk, or at best take a street car ride. Somebody is setting too fast a pace for the others to travel by, and sooner or later, either the judges or the practitioners are going to run so very fast, instead of turning with the curves of the track they will go off on a tangent and perhaps plunge headlong down, down some dangerous precipice. The salary should not always be the controlling spirit of occupying a seat on the bench, but on the other hand the judge should be paid a salary commensurate with the custom of the times and the communities. There is no doubt but that a judge in Seattle should be paid more than a judge in a country town, and of course a judge, at a time when all the necessities of life are five and ten times higher than when Judge Gay was a child, should naturally get a great deal more salary than did judges fifty years ago. But the question arises, What's the end of all this? Does it mean that this country is rapidly drifting into a state of landlordism and their hired attorneys? It is a fact that the attorneys, who have won any degree of distinction at the bar, would under no circumstances accept a judgement except as a crowning climax to their active and successful careers, or for the sake of the experience on the bench for a couple of terms with a view of commanding larger fees from rich clients. In other words the hope of being a judge is but the hope to lay the foundation to make more sure of amassing a fortune after retiring from the bench. Taking it all in all, the demoralized condition of the bench all over the United States is looked upon by most European and even South American countries as a rather sad commentary on the much boasted civilization of the United States. JUDGE WILSON R. GAY--LEGAL NOTES [Name not visible in the image] Judge Gay's resignation, which has prompted all this moralizing, has not, so far as the public knows, been yet tendered to Goveraor Hay, and his friends are inclined to hope that it will not be, and yet every man knows best his wishes and desires in such cases and conditions. The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a person's face, but no details can be discerned. The governor of the state of Washington will appoint three superior court judges for King county between this and the first of April and we wish to remind him, as the appointing power, that the best is not too good. We trust no politics will enter into their appointments and that men will be selected of qualification of ability advisedly. If judges of ability and integrity are available, so much the better, but above all, let have honest men. The judiciary of the United States, both state and federal, is not above suspicion. One careless or crooked judge, taints the whole court, no matter how many other honest ones may be his associates. The moral sentiment of the people is improving and we believe at the next election, greater care will be taken in seleeting judges. If you wish to test the truth of these statements, ask your friends and neighbors what they think of our courts. The people are not unduly suspicions and are slow to criticize our judiciary, but the truth is, our judges in many caces are, to say the least, careless. Oddities of testators. - The Irish gentleman, says Tid-Bits, who has left $5,000 to a religious house, on condition that his wife which enters it and spends the rest of her life in prayer is another example of the quaint methods by which the dead some times endeavor to control the living. It was a blunt farmer who knew drew up his will leaving $500 to his widow When the lawyer reminded him that some distinc- J. tion should be made in case the lady married again, he doubled the sum, with the remark that "him as gets her'll deserve it." It was a wealthv German who, fifteen years ago, bequeathed his property to his six nephews and six nieces, on the sole condition that each of the nephews married a wowan named Antoine and each niece married a man named Anton. The first born of each marriage was to be named Anton or Antoine, according to sex. Each marriage was also to take place on one of St. Anthony's days. What happened to the nephews and nieces is "wropped in misery" in the office of the German registar general. An exchange states that the winding up of the estate of the widow of a former French consul general at Jerusalem. an old lady, who died two years ago, leaving property valued at $6,000,000, will be no easy matter. The deceased seems to have been incessantly occupied in making wills and adding codicils. The last codicil discoverdd, which is dated August 16, 1907. "confirms the two last testaments." revoking all the others. Nine of the number are plainly revoked by the above codicil, but six others all bear the same date, May 9. 1904. wife Two of these appear to be the "last testaments" referred to in the codicil, as no later wills have so far been found. But which two of the six are the latest? The lady evidently wrote them at different hours of the same day, but there is no indication in any of them of the precise moment. The point is an import- ```markdown ``` ant one, as by three of the six wills, but not by the others, a female relative of the deceased inherits large sums, which the universal legatee may or may not have to pay. The courts are now engaged in an attempt to determine by "internal evidence" which of the wills most probably expressed the latest wishes of the deceased, French jurisprudence allowing in such matters considerable latitude. Without any warning a Washington boy of eight says the Cleveland Plaindealer, has been brought face to face with the fact that life is fréquent a very hard proposition. The boy is to receive an estate, value not named, under certain conditions. These conditions are severe engugh to leave the fate of the estate, value not named, in considerable doubt. The boy must graduate from a public high school before he is fourteen; he must win a college degree before he is eighteen; he must study law six months at Oxford; he must graduate from West Point. After receiving his commission he must resign and complete his law studies and then practice the profession. All this he must accomplish by the time he is twenty-eight. Incidentally he is to acquire proficiency in manual training, FRIDAY: March 24, 1911 in dancing and in music, and is to beware of women. If he fails to meet these conditions he is to forfeit all claim to the property. Probably the boy is too young to appreciate the magnitude of these tasks, but it looks as if the coming twenty years would prove an exceedingly busy period for him, with the shadow of failure ever darkening the rugged pathway. The man who made this peculiar will and imposed these exacting conditions may have had an exalted view of the importance of a thorough education, but the wisdom of his method and the value of his theory can only be told by the youth himself,--this hapless hero of a gigantic educational plot. Later on it may occur to the young man to seriously consider the value of the estate as compared with the labor and sacrifices of the task. Our readers will recall the fact that the late board of county commissioners instead of strictly attending to the business of the country devoted their time waging warfare against some county officer, when they were not quarreling among themselves. The employment of special counsel by the former board cost the taxpayers five hundred dollars for which the people received nothing and the intended injury to the county officer attack on proved a fiasco. One of the members of the old board sought a reelection, on his recent course, and was promptly turned down. The ex-official made an effort to get into the new council, but with even less success. It must be apparent that the people do not elect officers to scrap with other officials, or to quarrel among themselves and the two late elections have demonstrated that such is the feeling and temper of the voters This warning is apparently unheeded by the present board of commissioners, and after being in office for two short months, we find the present board in turmoil that can only result in detriment to the taxpayers. There may be several reasons why the present board insists in "scrapping" instead of attending to the county business; and a diagnosis of the case will no doubt develop the face that one is—the job that the members of the board have undertaken is too large for the men. What is needed on the present board of county commissioners is at least two good capable business men. who will care more for the welfare of the county affairs than they do of providing positions for their special friends and relatives. The electors have probably made a mistake and we are pleased to say that the recall law that was passed by the late legislature, will soon go into effect, and it would be worth many thousands of dollars to King county to make use of that powerful weapon and place on the board three high grade business men. The county has such men in abundance, and with the improved moral sentiment in our community, men who show that they are too small for the job can easily be replaced by men of better business ability. NEGRO LEADERSIHP MUCH MOOTED QUESTION YELLOW JOURALISM RESPONSIBLE FOR DR. WASHINGTON'S FRIDAY. March 24. 1911 Intoxicating liquors. Scheme by club for distribution to members as sale in Prohibition territory-Various have been the devices by clubs to distribute liquor purchased under cover of the interstate commerce clause, among members as ordered, so as to avoid the distribution being a sale. The device by a North Carolina club for an artistic finish, that won out before the supreme court of that state, occupies a very bad eminence. It, however, barely escaped, as the chief justice and one associate dissented from the reversal of the conviction. State v. Colonial Club, 69 S. E. 761. This scheme was an arrangement whereby the officers of the club were authorized to order for any member of the club beer or other liquor in bottles-have it shipped to the care of the club, which NEGR Whether Booker T. Washington or some other equally prominent Negro be the acknowledged leader of all civil, social, religious and financial organizations among Negroes in the United States seems to be greatly agitating the Negro press and pulpit throughout the country. Why not forget it and let it adjust itself? What's the use of an acknowlekged leader? Of what good purpose could such leader be to the Negro in general? Does not the success of a class, race or sect of people depend more on the general uplift of the whole people than a few successful individuals? Why not let every Negro, in his own quiet way be a Booker Washington? Is not the train porter, who conserves his earnings and then invests them in real estate or in United States bond, and thereby lays the foundation for financial independence, a more useful citizen than a hundred and YELLOW JOUR Nothing short of cussed yellow journalism is responsible for that Geaman in New York on last Sunday evening assaulting Dr. Booker T. Washington, who had entered an apartment house in search of a white man with whom he had much business from time to time. The yellow journalist is ever ready to herald to its readers that all Negro men lie constantly in wait to outrage some helpless white woman, and the wife of that German, seeing a colored man in the hall announced to her husband that he was acting suspiciously, and being in America, he felt absolutely certain, that that gave him a license, without so much as to take the trouble to enquire of the black man his business in the block, though absolutely none of the German's business, to assault the Negro and if he resisted, to even kill him, for to not have done so might have meant the outraging 1 of every woman in the block. alone with the average Negro Now, as a matter of fact, the than she is with a man of her white woman is infinitely safer own color. It is safe to say that BOOKER 2 WASHINGTON. should place it in its refrigerators with beer or other liquors so that all identity of property would be immediately lost. Any member directing the club to order beer or liquor was given a book of cupons, each cupon for a bottle of beer, if beer is ordered, and the cupons being for as many bottles as the member, paying in advance to the club, should order. The club deposited this money in the bank to its own credit and sent on its check for the aggregate of what was paid into it on orders. When the beer arrived it was served by the club's waiters to members, indiscriminately, for curons. The majority of North Carolina Supreme Court held that the club was merely a bailee of the liquor and that there was no sale and it was paid as such bailee one "A' M.'s." and L. L. D's?" If one has the ability to lead it does'nt require any public proclamation on the part of the whole or a part of the people to make the fact known, for it will assert itself in spite of opposition. Whatever your hands find to do endeaver to do it better than the same kind of work has ever been bone before, and, if you do, like Booker T. Washington, you will sooner or later, occupy the center of the stage with an admiring public for an audience. A leader is not so much a moulder of public opinions as he is the exchange board through which the ideas of all the people are registered and distributed for mediation and modulation. Great men differ and for ten or twenty millions of people to pretend to select one man as a leader is not only preposterous, but without a historic precedent. A Negro leader living in Alabama or New York could have no idea HE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN for storage and service by fees and dues of members. The minority held that title passes to the club and the cupons taken up by it were evidence of the indebtedness. It would seem that a device like this should deceive no one. We think it plain that, when the members arranged among themselves, one should not have any right to demand of the club the return to him of the specific property he orders this destroys the relation of bailor and bailee. A bailment is a delivery of goods in trust for the execution of a special object in relation to such goods, and there arises a contract, express or implied, to carry out the object of the bailnent and in default thereof to redeliver the goods. The trust here was for the club to mingle goods so that no particu- member should have claim to in the world what is best for the Negro in Alaska, Washington or California to do. It is absurd to think there will ever be a distinct Negro race in the United States; and for an alleged leader to encourage the Negroes to so work that only Negroes will reap the reward of their labors is but inviting extermination by bloodshed and violence instead of by gradual absorption as must and will be the final outcome of the Negro in the United States. Let every man among you be a leader. Let every man choose for himself an occupation, if only to run a bootblack stand or a peanut wagon and then work to the end that, the public will get better service from you than any one else, and without even your knowledge or consent you will be voted leader of at least your immediate community, and your success will spread to other sections, and you, too, will be talked about far and wide and your ex any specific goods, and the club in consideration of the bailment, promised to convey title to the bailor of other bottles of beer. When it redeemed its promise this constituted a sale of those other bottles. It took up a coupon for each other bottle as a credit pro tanto on its promise to transfer to the bailor as many bottles as he had delivered to it. The bailment to the club was to mingle the beer with other beer. We are aware of the general principle that where there is a confusion of goods by consent the owners become tenants in common of the mixture, but we thlnk this does not apply to this kind of a case, because the club agrees by issuing its cupons in advance of its coming into actual custody of the goods, that it would redeliver absolutely as much property in kind as was IOOTED QUES ample will be adopted by others. The real leaders of any class are those who live honorable, upright lives and who direct their individual efforts of life so that others will take them as exemplars. Whether or not you get a single vote for leadership, if you do your duty as a man and a patriotic citizen, you will stand as high as he who through flattery and cajolery is unanimously voted the leader. Dr. Washington is a man with a wonderful mind and along educational lines it is almost without a peer in this or any other country. With such a mind it is perfectly natural for him to be considered authority in his profession by all races, and perfectly natural for the Negro to point with pride to him. To that extent he is the real leader of the Negro as well as the less fortunate Caucasian. Dr. Du Bois is a philosopher, a logician and a man of letters and FOR DR. WA ninety-nine out of every hundred white families in the South pay no more attention to the passing in and out of a Fegro man to their wives and daughters' rooms than they do of a big black dog. It is a fact that widows in the south, with themselves and children as the only white occupants on large plantations tenanted by scores of Negro men and boys, are not only not molested, but not even given an impuword by the Negroes. The foreigner starts to America in about the same state of mind as did the fellow depicted in the Tirres last Monday evening, who lived in New York, but decided to move to Seattle, and to protect himself from the savage Indians that lurked about with death in their heart, loaded himself down with fire arms and amunition, to but meet a New York friend on the same train also headed for Seattle, loaded --- 5 paid for by the member. If the members were tenants in common, any loss or depreciation would follow them. If the club's obligation accrued only upon the goods actually coming into its custody, then if the transfer to the mass was a loss by each member of title to specific property, the member would be guilty of a sale, and the club in redeeming the cupons guilty of another sale. The club would be guilty whether title passed to it before the liquor arrived at destination or afterwards. Its guilt consisted in redeeming its coupons. This question needs to be argued with all techicnal refinement, for it is only by technicality that escape of criminality is sought. There is abundant authority against such device blinding justice. STION he takes high rank among the world's greatest thinkers. Who denies that he is no less a leader in his line than Dr. Washington, and yet these leaders can go on and on doing their respective leadership works and never have cause or excuse to clash. There is a railroad porter running into Seattle that has real estate conservatively valued at $75,000, which he purchased from the money he made as porter. He is a genius at getting the money and more so at investing it. That man has few if any equals in mrking a fortune out of nothing. He is a leader of splendid leading qualifications and just as deserving of leadership honors as Washington or Du Bois. He is a leader of leaders who successfully leads himself.

So also with the foreigners that start to America, of which the German in New York is a brilliant example. they get the idea that, the Negro, like the fabled African chipaneze, never loses an opportunity to do a white woman a wrong, hence their seeming readiness to assault a black man who does not immediately explain his presence in houses or communities where, for the most part, white women prevail. While the assault was brutal and wholly uncalled for, and an exchange of positions on the part of Dr. Washington and the German would have almost, if not actually, precipitated a race riot, yet as said in the outset, America's yellow journals and not the German's experience with or hatred for the Negro is responsible, for the assault, and for that reason the German was to an extent, excusable. --- 6 Concerning the recent treaty and the Japanese immigration to America the following excerpt from the North American Times, a Seattle Japanese publication, will be read with more or less interest by Anglo-Saxons all over the United States and especially those living on the Pacific Coast: "Owing to the stricture with which the Japanese government is observing the 'gentleman's agreement" entered into with the United States government as regards the immigration of Japanese in this country, the character of the Japanese who today have the high honor and dear and sweet pleasure of landing in the United States has considerably been changed. These men and women are in a sense the pick and flower of the race, so far as their usefulness and deserving are concerned. Compared with the European immigrant, the Japanese stands in bold relief. "We admit that there have been in this country in the past some of our countrymen who have not done honor to the name of our race. They have been ruffians, rowdies, gamblers and vice-promoters in large scale or in small scale, as the case may be. And we admit also that their influence upon our community has been so pernicious that even today we occasionally suffer form all sorts of social disease arising therefrom. That these pests of society have been allowed to enter this country was indeed a reflection upon the intelligence of the government officials of this country. And therefore it was proper that they awoke to the necessity of checking their inroad here. "But that is now a thing of the past. Today we are very pleased to observe that these undesirables are rapidly being replaced by highly desirable men and women who are a sort of tonic to our community. They are like pure water poured into a muddy pool, or like the rising sun illuminating the world of twilight into broad daylight. If ever there were any guest that should be welcomed here with outstretched arms, it is the Japanese immigrant of today. These desirable immigrants will materially assist in the upbuilding of the state. Work is plenty here, and what the United States needs today, as ever before, are men and women who work, and, to be sure, work for the cause of good government. If our readers demand proof of our assertion that our newcomers are doing well in this country, we invite them to take a little time to study their conditions after they land here. There is not yet any definite statistics showing the ratio of goodness of those who have been here for a number of years, and of those who have been here for a number of years, and of those who have come here in these few years. But everywhere we find striking evidence to prove that the latter are doing a world of good in uplifting the sluggish sense of duty and honor that have been dormant in the life of their predecessors. Put them in the fields of agriculture, and lo! there looms up beautiful garden tracts in lands that once were full of stumps and underwood. Give them employment in the city, and behold! in ITEMS MORE OR LESS INTERESTING [Image of a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a thick, high-collared coat with a fur collar.

Send them to schools, and you will see them outclassing those who have been here for many years.

It is no more nor less than right that we should be, because we are here to live and to enjoy our life. But there can be no life, that civic life, unless we have citizenship with us. We are confident of our ability to take care of this privilege of citizenship, if it is entrusted to us.
