HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON - - - Publisher USIE REVELS CAYTON - - - Associat When Tom L. Jhonson of Cleveland Ohio passed over to the great beyond one of the world's noted characters was silenced. Whether what he did was right or wrong, whether what he did was contrary to the laws of nature or not, whether what he did was for the greatest good to the greatest number or not, we believe that he believed it was, and time only will tell whether it was or was not. In his immediate city, if left to their own volition, we believe, a great majority of the residents had implicit confidence in him and would have kept him at the head of the city'y affairs indefinitely, and thereby gave him an opportunity to demonstrate to the whole world the practicability of what he advocated, but his ideas were in direct opposition to those advocated by the leading financiers of the world at the present time, and for them to be even given an opportunity to be demonstrated might have meant a general over turning of fixed principles, hence Tom Johnson's ideas were bitterly fought and he was after, many hard fought political battles, crushed in his home town. He, however, may have sufficiently planted the seeds, that though he himself is dead, they will spring up, take root downward and become fixtures in the general government. But whatever may have been his faults or his failures he was a most wonderful man with a most wonderful mind and history will record him as one of the noted reformers of the United States of North America, Tom L. Johnson will take his place, at least in the minds of the great middle classes, by the side of Henry George, whose teachings have become standard literature. Who the devil are Blodget & Co. that Seattle should have to set up and take notice because they refuse to take her bonds? When did it happen that some little two by four bond scalper could hurt the credit of a town of the commercial importance of Seattle? Let Blodget & Co. go where they do not have to build fires and when they have gone there will still be plenty of persons to buy Seattle's bonds. If the success of Seattle is dependent upon the wishes of a lot of bond brokers then the sooner her credit goes to the dimnation bow works the better for all concerned. Of course the Times would publish such stories because it is paid by the "interests" to keep a watch-out for just such coupes and then enlarge upon them for all they are worth. Have you observed the Times is neither defending or condemning the work of the grand jury? In the light of the past the general supposition is, it would like awfully well to denounce it, ifit dared and, it is said, the reason it does not dare to do so is because the editor of the Times is expecting a call from Roberts most any old day. It must be awfully annoying to one to be a member of an Uneasy Club. So disappointed at the failure of the legislature to pass the road bill that he advocated Sam Hill has threatened to nail up the doors of his Seattle home and move bag and baggage to his country home in Klicitat county and may perhaps leave the state for good. Mr. Hill must have good roads on the brain. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY, APRIL 14, 1911 It is said that one can not go to the banks of Seattle and borrow $4.95 on a five dollar gold piece. In other words the banks are not loaning money on any kind of securities. That is a splendid way to build up a city and Seattle is enjoying a period of prosperity just now unprecedented in her history on account of this policy on the part of the banks. One business man who needed some money real bad slid down to Portland and made the loan down there and yet he is doing business in Seattle. There is such a thing as one heeding too well and here is a true case of it. The banker may have the money, but he will soon see the town in awful financial straights if he continues to pursue his hide bound policy. Today by Gov. Hay's special proclamation is arbor day in the state of Washington, and trees are supposed to be planted by every one, who has a home and even those who have not. If the poor people could be induced to plant more gardens and care for them as they should be they could get along very well without trees or at least they could be made a secondary consideration. For King county to purchase the Meadows might prove a profitable investment from a dollars and cents stand point, but it has not occurred to us that the county had gone in to the real estate speculation business and we do not feel at this time that the county ought to go in debt for any thing but absolute neccessities and not too far in for those. Among the big ones of the country that were sent to jail in the month of March were Jack Johnson and Clarence Hillman. Johnson is crazy and Hillman is a criminal that will do anything to get the other fellow's money. Both of them deserved twice what they got. Mr. Recall has been working on Judge Gay and as a result that resignation that was promised for May 1st has been pocketed for the time being and perhaps for all time to come. Its wonderful how smoothly Mr. Recall is working these days. Not long ago Bobby Boyce in one of his well written articles declared a woman's leg the most beautiful thing on earth. Well great minds do run in the same channel for we had come to the same conclusion and in fact it seems to be a weakness of man. Democratic Duty, Mr. Democrat, is the same as it was a hundred years ago, raise hadese and view with alarm the prosperity of the country. His duty in the present Congress will be no more omnious than it has always been in the history of the party. THOUGHTS FROM THE COUNTRY PRESS. "Get together," is the slogan of Pt. Angeles. For the sake of life and long happiness it is often better to get apart. When persons are out for the spoils getting together frequently means hanging seperatly. * * * "When the present labor troubles will have been settled it will probably be better for all concerned that it happened," argues the Cle Elum Echo. It has been learned that the trouble at the mines of the Northwestern Improvement Company at that place was the work of disgruntled adgitators and that they will now be weeded out and not given any more employment in the works of the company. * * * The Goldendale Sentinal is much impressed with the argument advanced by Dr. James Withycombe of the Oregon agriculture school that five and ten acre farms are large enough for one family, not only for maintenance, but for the accumulation of a rainday supply. It sounds good to us for we have seen what can be done on one acre to say nothing of ten acres. *** "Whats the matter with Colfax?" ask the Commoner of that place. Nothing in the world is the matter with Colfax, and if there is anything the matter it is with the folks in Colfax. The town will be alright if the folks will only let it alone. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 publican VOLUME XVII. NUMBER 46 When editors of newspapers air personal differences among themselves in their respective papers it is high time they cease to poke fun at the old women news mongers of the town. Recently the editor of the Waterville Press declared the editor of the Oroville Gazette was in the ossified class, whereupon the Gazette retorted, the editor of the Press was the only editorial blackguard in the state. Perhaps both of the papers have told the truth, but why trouble the public with things in which it is not personally interested. ** "Sumas is better than it looks," declares a folder from there, which is backed up by the Sumas News, and from what has been said about the thrift of the coming metropolis of the northwest there must be more or less truth in the allegation. * * * "Our next governor will be chosen from the ranks of Democracy and perhaps, Hugh C. Todd will be the man," argues the Davenwort Tribune. Oh quit your kidden. The Democratic party has about as much show of winning the next governorship of Washington as a snow ball has of flying through hades and Todd no show in case there was any show for Democracy. --- The Auburn Republican is the latest King county "long felt want" to be sprung on an expectant public and it has the here to stay "appearance." "The spring crop of colonists to the White River valley is unusually large," is learned from the Kent Advertiser, which ought to mean quite a movement in the real estate business down there. Howard Taylor, speaker of the house of representatives of the late legislature of the state of Washington, will, in the opinion of the Colton News Letter, give Gov. Hay a hard run for his money in the gubernatorial mixup next year, all of which remains to be seen, and it can not be seen until it has actually taken place. --- Too much space has been given to the Pullman escapade, which resulted in the indefinite suspension of three young fellows from the Washington college, by the daily papers, according to the ideas of the Lincoln County Times. If the young whelps had been given terms in the penitentiary instead of indefinite suspension the right and proper thing would have been done. The pranks of college boys are getting altogether too realistic for the good of the moral atmosphere of colleges where males and females attend. . . . Are Young People Deteriorating is a head line in the Sunnyside Sun. Go chase yourself and cut that old chestnut out. Of course they are not, for are we not told in the Bible, there is nothing new under the sun. Well, the man who thinks he is called upon to reform the universe is like unto the man, who thinks the universe would go to the dimnation bow wows if he should die. The world would wag on if even Theodore Roosevelt would die and that is saying a good deal, at least in the mind of Senator Miles Poindexter, who seems to see the world and the fullness thereof in the presence of the "colonel." . . . Peder Jensen told the writer at Olympia that he would soon announce himself as a socialist. In view of his Seymour support the announcement will be delayed for a while—at least till the socialists have a chance to win. Peder Jensen has made a first class jackass of himself, and none but a confounded ingrate would turn his back on the man who has given him his chief support—that is just what A. V. Fawcett did for Jensen. We want to apologize to our readers for the support that we gave freely to Peder Jensen. We are willing to admit NOW that we DIDN'T KNOW JENSEN.—Tacoma Forum. And thus do editors of metropolitant papers and publications boost men into great public prominence to tear them down again. Peder Jensen an unsophisticated Democrat unable to intelligently speak the English language, was boosted into the state senate which should have been occupied by a Republican and all because the Forum tore its shirt for his election. In future do not support men that you do not know. [Picture of a man in a suit, looking serious.] 2 PERSONS TALKED ABOUT. JOHN F. MURPHY, the man that is striking terror to the hearts of the evil doers of King county, was being discussed by a bunch of fellows one day this week, and the nerve he is exhibiting in having, even men who in the past had professed firm friendship for him, brought to justice, was being enlarged upon, when Senator Dan Landon broke in with. "Once I saw John lose his nerve, when he was not facing determined men as he now is. He and his wife were out joy riding with me in my new automobile and after we had gotten about thirty miles from home the machine got unruly and we began to try to make it go, when all of sudden it took fire and the flames shot into the air some twenty feet. John was standing in the road but a few feet from it, when the mishap occurred, and the sight of the flames completely unnerved him and he made a long leap for life. His wife was still sitting in the machine and seeing him take leg bail screamed, "John are you going to leave me to burn up in the machine?" That however brought him to his senses and he turned and made one mad rush for the machine, in flames though it was, and took his wife out as though she was a baby. We enjoyed the joke while we were tramped to the nearest railroad station. JAMES R. MORRISON, who has twice been elected surveyor of King county, has been endorsed by the Good Roads convention of southwest Washington for highway commissioner of the state. Morrisson is one of the most successful as well as competent surveyors King County has ever had and it is to be regretted that the late lamented legislature did not pass a measure permitting officials to hold office during good behavior, if the people so desired, and if it had Morrison would be elected to the office he now holds as often as he would accept it. Should he be named for highway commissioner what would be King count's loss would be the state's gain. CHARLES W. WAPPENSTEIN, former chief of the police under the Gill administration, was again arrested last Saturday, being the fourth time since the King county grand jury has been doing business. If he should be convicted on all the indictments he is now charged with and got even the minimum sentence for each he would be considerably over an hundred years old when he would have finished them. It is hinted that not less than a baker's dozen more may be piled up against him, which gives one the impression that, the members of the grand jury must be disciples of Mrs. Eddy and expect the now famous ex-chief to live always and they are taking time by the forelock and propose to get a good share of even his always time. REV. E. B. SUTTON, convicted of falsyfying the registration books at the late recall election in Seattle, is a candidate for gubernatorial clemency and his application bears the endorsement of the court, the pulpit, and the press of the city, because they believe what he did he did not know it constituted a crime. It remained for the Catholic Progress to be the only publication in the county that had any opposition to the govenor giving clemency to the over enthusiastic divine and its only reason, so goes the story, was because at some time in the past Rev. Sutton had very severely and sarcastically criticised the Catholic church. Now is that the kind of religion that the Lord and Master taught? Does the Progress advocate evil for evil, or does it believe in the teachings of the Bible, which says, do good for evil. No wonder persons in other countries do not wholly accept the Christian religion, because all of the isms advocate a different method of getting to the same place. Do right should be the chief principle of all religions, and thus far and no further. ROBERT T. HODGE, who has announced his intention of making a fight for the gubernatorial nomination next year, is again in an ugly fight with the county commissioners over the perquisites of the office of sheriff, and it is predicted that he is going to lose his fight, not only lose his fight with the commissioners, but be made the political laughing stock of the state. It is said of Hodge that he is so grossly ignorant that he does not know that he is a political nuisance. P. F. PURCELL of the Purcell Safe Lock Company, who has just returned from a trip to the Atlantic coast, is of the same opinion of all of the Seattleites that go east and hear the business men of that section talk about Seattle, that if the Seattle business men do not get together and stand together they will in a business way die seperately. The Seattle Republican not long since spoke at lenth concerning Mr. Purcell and among other things it said, he managed the Gill campaign, which he took exceptions to, "instead of managing the Gill campaign I had practically nothing to do with it and my opinion of the Gill campaign is it was the most unbusiness like campaign I have ever witnessed and if I had been managing it things would have been far different than what they were." HERMON S. FRYE, of the firm of Gill, Hoyt & Frye, who, in the Gill administration, was dubbed Friday Frye, on account of him seeming to be the go between in the Gill administration, has been found guilty by a jury for interfering with an officer that had arrested a man accused of crime. When he was arraigned he objected to being put through the same stunts as an ordinary criminal. but he has been found guilty like an ordinary criminal and unless the lower court is reversed he will most likley be punished like an ordinary criminal. It is a presumption of law that every one is innocent until found guilty, but once found guilty irrespective of previous standing the same kind of punishment should be meeted out to such persons as is to the person of the humbler walk of life found guilty of crime. CHARLES ALF WILLIAMS,a veteren newspaper man, died at his home in this city last Monday, he was considered one of the most accomplished journalists in the Northwest. His work has been confined exclusively to the daily papers. Woman suffrage has the right of way in most of the state legislatures that are or have been in session this year as may be seen from the following legislature votes on woman suffrage; California, ayes 98 nays 17; Kansas ayes 121 nays 40; Oregon and Nevada both gave a two to one vote for equal suffrage; the Illinois senate 31 ayes 10 nays: Montana 38 ayes 32 nays; Michigan 55 ayes and 44 nays; Maine 70 ayes 66 nays: Massachusetts 69 ayes 161 nayes. It will thus be observed that Massachusetts was the only state legislature that cast an unfavorable vote for equal suffrage, and, shame on the old Bay State. All Europe is said to be exercised over what they believed is a veiled attempt on the part of President Taft through the reciprocity dodge for the United States to rob England of her North American possessions. It is also reported that the Mexicans are exercised less Taft orders Uncle Sam to absorb the entire Mexican republic. There is no doubt but that Taft has got all the big ones talking about him and if Roosevelt does not look to his laurels Taft will even out advertise the advertiser. "You," said a well known business man, "say times are hard in Seattle and ask me to explain why they are so and why there are so many vacant houses in the city. Well, in my opinion, both are due to the fact that Seattle is now a Sunday school town," and yet no one ever heard of those who make up a fast town ever producing a single dollar and seldom if ever attracting any dollars to the town for investment. Would not one be safe in saying, "find one honest man in the government employe and the reputation of FRIDAY, April 14, 1911 JVMES D. HOGE, one of Seattles leading bankers, is home from an extended business trip to New York and other business centers in the east, whither his banking and building business took him. I am of the opinion that the whole country is undergoing a business depression just now and Seattle with one or two exceptions is in no worse condition than the other cities of the country. There is absolutely no danger of a panick and yet there will be no rush of business until after the next presidential election. So far as Seattle is concerned the persons interested in her growth and general prosperity want to quit knocking each other. In the east you can hear that Seattle is quiet and that the chief cause of it is a lack of harmony among her leading business men. Many of us have the idea that Seattle is IT and all because we have made a bunch of money out of real estate, but unless Seattle gets factories and a bucket brigade she will see greater financial depressions than she is now undergoing. Men in Seattle with money do not seem inclined to put it into infant industries and persons interested in such concerns have to go out of town to get the money to operate on, which ought not to be. I am inclined to think that rents are too high and a general scaling down of ground floor rooms in the business district and in resident portions of the city would be a good move to restore the former healthy business condition of the city. Lets work together and do those things that will attract to our city the greatest amount of publicity. And despite the fact the whole country is undergoing a business and financial depression, owing to our extensive as well as our Oriental trade Seattle will not feel it so keenly as other cities that do not have these lucrative resources to draw upon. the government for employing only honest men will be saved." and the same not be found? When Congress winks at grafting within its very walls what else could it expect employees of the goverment all over the country to do, but to graft ever time they get an opportunity? Who will deny that ours is a nation of grafters and public looters? The Tacoma Socialists having been disfranchised, owing to the candidate backed by them at the recall election being low man in the race, thus leaving the contest to Fawcett and Seymour, the leaders have served notice on the members of the party that, if any one of them vote for either of the running candidates such persons will be kicked out of the party, and yet they argue for personal liberty. Default divorce cases will in the future be heard by Judge Wilson R. Gay and unless the attorneys and the plaintiff's tell a mighty straight tale they will have a gay old time getting the desired default. That woman that gave up a million dollars to wed another man must have a wonderful amount of confidence in men, and certainly more in the one she is going to marry than the one she did marry. The immortal Teddy may have received a warm reception everywhere he has been on his recent swing around the circles, but he himself does not deny that he got a cold reception in Idaho, owing to a three foot snow fall while there. Nonie's dog team race has been won by Scotty Allan driving a malmute team, and thus ends another of the most exciting and damphool sensations that has ever taken place in Alaska and that is saying a good deal. A Bellingham man is advertising a $3,000 flying machine for $500. It is barely possible that he will find another damphool in the Northwest, but it is seriously doubted. S. Foster Kelly will be brought back to Seattle to answer an indictment, which has been returned against him by the grand jury. The trial may humilate him, but we do not believe he will ever be convicted. em ye hn ie ro (. eS Bo oS rs % a oe b ae ih Brae gee ot) v rr eee FRIDAY, April 14, 1911 A young man in the southern section of Seattle committed suicide because his lover died a few weeks previous. He evidently had not heard that there is just as good fish in the sea as was ever caught out, Ivay May Henry, with her two children and S. Foster Kelley, her affinity have been arrested in San Francisco, which means that Mrs. Henry will louse her children, which is nothing short of a dam shame. Missouri’s supreme court has saved the alleged slayer of Col. Thomas H Swope his Hyde by granting the doctor a new trial. Dr. Hyde still says he is inno- cent of the murder, bnt he could not say niuch else and expect to live. Mrs. Hetty Green is thinking of giving up her flat in New York and live with her son presumably to cut expenses during the present financial depression. A dollar saved is always a dollar nade. Chicago, it would seem, still belongs to the Har- rison family, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. Just how long before Owner Harrison will levy a tax on all, who desire to visit the windy city is not known. That pesterferous blind pig, which worked over time at the parks in Seattle on Lake Washington for so long has taken upits permanent quarters in Everett. A real live ghost is seid to be doing much to amuse the denizens of Porter, a small town on the N. P. be- tween Seattle and Portland. If that ghos¢ is not care- ful some one will knock its block off. April and March seem to have decided to swap wives whether the vox populi desired it or not. The changeappears to be highly entertaining to both of them. Because Abraham Lincoln read the Bible every morning is no argument that every body else should do as he did, for Lincoln was only a man like all the rest of us, and every man should have the right to do as he pleases about things in which only himself is personal- ly concerned. However Bible reading is a commend- able short coming in any one. Money, material, machinery, merchandise and men are the five Ms the business man of today have to deal with and they come pretty nearly including every busi- ness transaction one meets with through life. Now that the Democrats control one branch of Con- gress Mr. Free Trade, who has been resting on his ores for many years will again be a conspicuous figure about the Nationa! Capitol and it is barely possible that he will often be seen on a mule. Former Secretary Shaw, who is visiting Seattle with the view of giving the Irondale plant a thorouch going over in order to report the same to European capitalists whom James A. Moore has interested in it, says, ‘If I were a young man I would come to Seattle and go into the manufacturing business,’’ and he has the right steer, for Seattle is ripe for small manufac- turing plants as well as large ones. Hundreds of ten and twenty men manufactories could exist in Seattle. Mr. Shaw has also carefully gone over the Vulcan Iron Works plant and he and Mr. Moore may become inter- ested in it. Nothing to our mind is so torturing to a human being, who has spent his or her life in giving others pain and humilation, as the day of retribution. He, who has sought at all times to do his fellow man an in- justice, must be more miserable than was Dives as he lifted up his cyes in hell and beheld Lazarus in the bosom of Him, who doeta all things well, when the day of retribution finally overtakes him. A few days ago Jim Tillman, the brother of Ben Tillman, died in mis- ery and shame after laying bed fast for many months, during which time he was absolutely friendless and forlorn. The day of retribution for the damnable life he had lived was slow in overtaking him, but. terrible was its punishment when it did. Ben Tillman, who profited by the same tactics as did his brother, also had along run for his money, but disease and misfortune have likewise overtaken him and his days, instead of end- ing ina flame of glory as he felt confident they would be are being ended with his body diseased and his mind a mental wreck, Both of them were strickened in a manner that they had ample time to reflect upon the sins of commission of which they were each exceed- ingly guilly. Lets hope that each of them repented of the error of his ways and made his peace with na- tures God before the grim reaper ushered him into There are some tecords at Albany that no fire can wipe out.—New York World.

STRAY THOUGHTS, Worry is not work. Prayer is not a method of making a demand. An error is partly atoned for if profited by. A great many men mistake notoriety for fame. Christianity is living. Religion may be mere con- versation. Servility may be purchased with money, but friend- ship never. A life of sin is not wholly atoned for by one min- ute of repentance, Man is the only animal that seeks to profit from the labor of his young. Love is still going along when mere friendship has turned up a side street The meanest thief in the world is the one who robs children of their childhood. We have to learn to like some people just as we had to learn to like olives. Some people think they have repented when they are merely afraid to do it again. The bill of fare may be in French, but that doesn’t add anything to the taste of tne ham and cabbage. We always know a man lived, if, after death, iz is truthfully said of him: ‘‘The children loved him.”’ People who waste time discussing what hell is never experience the pleasure of thinking about the joys of heaven. James A. Moore, Seattle’s real builder and promoter, returned last Saturday evening from the East, which extended to London and other European countries, but unlike the most of the Seat- tleites that went to Europe last winter, Mr, Moore was by no means seeking pleasure or reerea- tion, but he was there in the in- terest of Seattle in particular and the Northwest in general, for he was there endeavoring to finance the Irondale plant, which, if done, promises to give the Northwest the greatest boom it has ever had. It was the latter part of last Oc- tober that he left Seattle for New York, where he planned to get through with his Irondale busi- ness by not later than the latter part of November, but he encoun- tered unforeseen financial diffi- culties and, aecording to the grape- vine dispatches, he found it im- possible to raise the amount of money he desired for the plant in New York, and so he sailed for London in December, whither he has been ever since. Whether he raised the necessary money the writer verily doeth not know, but rumor has it that, if he has not actually raised the money, he has almost done so and some of the men he interested in the plant are already here looking it over and are very favorably impressed not only with Irondale, but the entire Northwest and it is almost an as- sured fact that the ten-million dol- lars will be raised and that, too, very soon, James A, Moore is a promoter Naa ER EN ai a ea a ae not so much for the money that is in it for him, but for the love of the game, and in all of his previous promotion schemes he has been eminently successful and it is verily believed, by all who know him, that Irondale will be the the crowning climax to all of his promotion schemes. Quoting him second-handedly, he says, ‘‘I have nothing else to live for except the realization of the great iron industrial plant at Irondale and that done I am ready to give up business of all kinds and deseriptions.’’ While James A. Moore is not a man that weeps over spilt milk or because the other fellow does not see things as he does, yet the writer has been told by one who ought to know whereof he speaks, that Mr. Moore recently said: “My greatest opposition has come from alleged Seattle business men. They had no sooner learned that I had left for New York to raise money for Irondale than they wired ahead of me warning capitalists to not invest in my proposition as it was not a safe investment. Tf that is not true they certainly gave me no backing, and to call upon them for verification would have been like calling upon so many lamp posts so far as my proposition was concerned. All men work for selfish ends, and of course I would reap a large part of my labors in building up this gigantic iron plant in the Northwest, but with it in opera- tion along the plans I have laid out, it will be a souree of revenue for the whole seetion, and what I personally receive from it would not be more than a grain of sand on the seashore in comparison to what the whole section will gain.” The same man who volunteered the information above is also one of Seattle’s promoters and financiers and he declared he knew personally of a number of business men who had knocked the Irondale plant and not only that plant, but every other industry that were trying to be financed for Seattle and the surrounding country. The special edition of The Seattle Republican, which was des- ignated as the Men Building Seattle, issued January Ist, 1911, under the caption of ‘‘Who Is Who in Seattle,’’ spoke as follows of Mr. Moore: ““Tn starting out with the name of James A. Moore, the well-known Seattle promoter and builder, no one will deny but that he has brought more capital to the city, which has been invested in permanent buildings, than any other known person. His undertakings have simply been gigantic, and yet they have all been carried through with- out a hitch. Magnificent buildings have been erected at his suggestion, and the crowning climax of them all is the Washington Hotel building. If Mr. Moore has been instrumental in inducing a dollar to be invested in Seattle he has been instrumental in the investment of multiplied millions. Irondale, though not entirely a Seattle industry, yet it will be a strong Seattler feeder. The name of James A. Moore will go down in history as the greatest promoter and builder of them all.’” 4 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for King County. Summons by Publication.
