Much has been said from time to time concerning the completion of the Panama canal and the great benefits the Pacific Coast is to derive from it in the way of cheap transportation, and the allegation is not denied, in fact, we believe that the rates from the East to the West and from the West to the East will be cheapened to a marked degree, but the question to the consumer is, Am I to benefit by this cheaper rate? Is the article so shipped to be cheapened in proportion to the reduction of the freight rate made so by the opening of the canal, for which the taxpayers of the country have paid almost a billion dollars? And then knowing as he does that the price of everything sold to the consumer is regulated by a trust or a combination of trusts he can answer the questions without a moment's consideration with, not a single cent less will I pay for the articles sold to me on account of the cheap rate. "Freight on typewriters," said a Seattle dealer, "will be reduced from $15 per hundred pounds to seventy-five cents per hundred pounds and that will be a big thing for our company." In other words the government has built the canal at an enormous expense to cheapen the freight rates on trust goods that the trusts may reap a greater harvest in the future from the consumer than they have in the past. If you do not call that class legislation then, what is it? When the city of Seattle put in an electric light plant of its own the private concerns doing business in the city immediately cut their former rates in two and the consumer was the beneficiary of the reduction, which was right and proper. It would therefore appear, if the public built the canal the reduction in freight rate ought to redound to the good of the consumer, but nay, nay, Pauline, not so, you pay the same price. Who is responsible for it we are not prepared to say, but the United States is completely domineered by trusts and the consumer is compelled to dance to their music or go hungry and naked. And under such conditions the trust king wonders, why there seems to be such a state of unrest all over this country just now. Keep up the pace you are going at, Mr. Trust, and there will not only seem to be a state of unrest, but there will be a bloody unrest prevailing in this country, and one even worse than the one that is now prevailing all over France. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, SEPT. 8, 1911. BEATTIE TRIAL A DISGRACE. The Associated Press has kept the wires hot with detailed accounts of the Henry Beattie murder case in Virginia and it has done so for no greater reason than because the parents of that young reprobate, who publicly admits he has ruined the lives of two innocent young women, to say nothing of the score or more he is silent about, is vastly rich, and even he may have acquired those riches in the same criminal way that his son has the notoriety he is now getting, all of which is done to give the public to understand that, if a person has money it is not in the books for him to be convicted of crime, though he may be guilty of murdering the purest woman or women of the land. It after all is a sad commentary on our much boasted civilization, and it can be said, without fear of successful contradiction, that so far as getting justice at the hands of the courts of the United States it is next to impossible, if your opponent has more money than you. TOO MUCH TAXES. At the election last Tuesday the large bond issues, except the one for the watershed about Cedar Lake, was defeated and rightly so. While there were some very meritorious propositions killed, yet the status of affairs was such that, the people were in no mood to vote for more bonds or anything else that would in any way increase their present rate of taxation. The defeat of the court house bonds is rejoiced at by the advocates of the Bogue Civic Center proposition, but they are hollering before they are out of the woods for, they will learn to their bitter regret that when that proposition comes before the public the voters will bury it so deep that it will never remember that it ever was a live issue. The whole idea is a real estate scheme and it is being hatched up for the purpose of a lot of men with large realty holdings in that section of the city to unload it at an enormous price to the city. In other words, they have not had an opportunity to sting the city treasurer and that is the way they have planned to do so, and the fellows who have already been given an opportunity to sting the city is helping along for the opportunity they have previously enjoyed. SENATOR BAILY TO OUIT. Once or twice in recent months Joe Bailey, the senor United States senator from Texas, has threatened to resign his seat in the senate, but has withdrawn the threat, now he gives it out that he will not be a candidate for re-election. The public has begun to smell a mouse in all of this talk of Bailey's about leaving the senate and it has begun to wonder what Bailey has done in the senate that is about to come under the observation of the public, which would bring him into general disrepute, and to avoid the scandal he is going to quit public life? Joe Bailey went into politics and into Congress a poor man and he is now conservatively rated as being VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 18. worth a few million dollars, and it has been hinted that his vast riches is due to his connection with the Standard Oil Company since he has been a member of the senate. But what more could be expected from a man, who has rose from the dunghill of the "poor white trash" of Copiah county, Mississippi, where clay-eating was "putty gud," than to grab everything in sight. It was with him like the old man that sent his boy off to school and had him educated for a physician. When he came home he gave him a horse and saddle and said to him: "My son, go out now and make money. If you can not make money honest, my son, make money." TRIMBLE FOR GOVERNOR. In another column hereof is published a communication from a committee, which is espousing the candidacy of Wm. Pitt Trimble, a distinguished citizen of Seattle, subject to the approval of the Republican party, and its contents are more or less popular and will meet the approval of a great many of the voters of this state. We do not understand the communication to be in any sense a formal announcement on the part of Mr. Trimble to enter the gubernatorial contest next year, but is rather a public pulse-feeler, and if the same meets a favorable reception then perhaps he will issue a Declaration of Principles and formally announce his intention of asking the Republicans of the state for the nomination of governor. Briefly speaking, the circular covers a wide scope, and points out many defects in the present manner of running the affairs of the state which should be rendered, and on the whole the letter furnishes much meat for thought. If Mr. Trimble endorses the ideas couched in the words of the letter, and he must as it is signed by one of the most reputable business men in the Northwest, he is a real reformer, and one, that would put the affairs of the state on a business basis and public officials would be told that they would have to do business for the state the same as they would for private individuals. Mr. Trimble stands high in this community and is a man possessing the most sterling qualities. He may not be the personally popular mixer that the other fellow is, but if you ever have any business dealings with him, you will go away knowing that he is the embodiment of honor and personal integrity and deals on the square and in the open with every one. Because he or she who aspires to public office has not in the past poked his head out of the tenth story window of some of the modern skyscrapers and hollowed, Hello, Bill, is no argument at all that such person is cold blooded toward his fellow man. He or she who does the most good to all is he or she who goes about his work and never fails to in some way lend a helping hand to the needy, who takes no undue or mean advantage of those he has business relations with and every time he does a humane act announce the same either through golden McBRIDE ON PERSONS AND THINGS megaphone or the columns of some yellow journal. Whether or not Wm. Pitt Trimble becomes a candidate for governor remains to be seen, but he has made himself clear on many of the vital issues of this state, and, if he really decides to enter the contest, then we suppose he will set forth his declaration of principles and his remedies for many of the existing evils. COMMENT. Dr. James A. Ghent has returned from a four weeks' wedding and business tour to New York and the mountains of Okanogan county, in which latter place he and Mrs. Ghent enjoyed a delightful outing. "Business seems to be stagnant all over the country and it is the general impression that it will not grow better until after the election. Taft may win in the coming fight, but I am inclined to think, Woodrow Wilson will give him a hard run for his money." Marshal Jacoby has returned from the Spanish War Veteran encampment and is delighted with his trip. The Spanish war vets have been playing a pretty successful game so far as Seattle is concerned, and Marshal Jacoby has more reasons to coincide with the statement than the average person. Bob Hodge has been shooting off his mouth again and declares he will not attend to the official wants of the court and the respective judges can declare it contempt if they so like, but he will give the county commissioners and the judges to understand he is Robert T. Hodge, sheriff of King county, and might have very consistently added to that, the darndest fool that ever wore a hat. William H. Flett, a prominent Seattle attorney, died last Tuesday after a brief illness. Mr. Flett came to Seattle a few years ago in the interest of the Presidential candidacy of Robert La Follett, but got a cold reception when he asked the Republican central committee to consider La Follett's name. He has since labored with the Progressives and of course was an adherent of Miles Poindexter. He was a law partner of Charley Shepard, with offices in the New York block. Oliver T. Erickson, one of the men arrested for denouncing Judge Hanford, is said to have done what he did because he believed it would make him the next governor of the state. Otto A. Case did not get an opportunity to get off his gun, but he had it loaded and made no bones in saying to those near him, "if I can get an opportunity to shoot my wad it will make me governor of the state beyond a per adventure of doubt." Finally the bruiser of the sheriff's office of King county, one Bob Hodge, was dying to get off his load of hog wash and he declared if he did there would be no doubt but that he would be elected in both the primary and the general election by a two-to-one vote over his opponents as governor of the state. One would hardly think there are as many damphools in one community as were seen at that anti-Hanford demonstration, and it begins to look as if the whole affair was planned to foster gubernatorial timber. ```markdown ``` No, things don't always turn out as the political prophets predict. One of the greatest objections to the recall has been the claim that this God given privilege would be abused and it may be, but depend on it, the people, the voters, controlled by public sentiment will do just about the right thing, and this is shown by the recent attempted recall of Mayor Dilling. The public sentiment is against his recall while at the same time I believe a majority of the voters are against his administration of city affairs, but the mistakes the mayor has made are errors of judgment, and a fair minded people will not recall under such conditions. But some one asks, how about ex-Mayor Gill's recall? Well, the people did not want to recall him and he was given every opportunity to permit it. Public sentiment was against his chief of police and whether the demand was right or wrong, the voters, the people, wanted a change in that department, and if the ex-mayor had listened to the voice of the people instead of the voice of some of his miserable political advisers, he would be mayor at this time instead of the present incumbent. Public sentiment goes off wrong sometimes, but as a rule, it expresses about the right side of every question. Last week I said I was in favor of the recall for judges, and come to think of it, it's an awful thing to disagree with the occupant of the White House on so great a question. However, this is not the first time Taft got away off wrong. His veto of the Arizona constitution will, as I believe, be approved by but few people, and shows to my mind that the old man is not quite as patriotic as he represents himself to be. If I am correctly informed, Arizona is the only territory to demand a recall of judges, and why? Because the President made a lot of dirty political judicial appointments in Arizona. If the President had followed the course of Grover Cleveland and personally selected the judges for that territory, instead of appointing on the recommendation of politicians, the people of Arizona would not have demanded a recall of judges. There would have been no occasion for the demand. Judge Gay recently said that "the very foundation of the government depended on an honest and fearless judiciary," and no one will deny this, and yet, in the face of this truthful declaration, we find a President appointing judges whose conduct and decisions create a public sentiment that demands a recall. The wrongful and unpatriotic appointments of our presidents in the past is responsible for the first demand for a recall of judges and I dare say, that if the men appointed to the Arizona judiciary had been able, upright and honest, the recall would not have been thought of. The same will apply in the states. There must be an improvement in the judiciary, or the recall will come. The tears the President sheds over a possible abuse of the recall are unnecessary. The same may be said of the independence of the judges. An honest, fearless, upright judge will never be recalled for the mistakes he makes. Americans are too fair THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN and square—the principle of fair play is too thoroughly engrafted in their makeup to demand a removal of any judge for a mistake in judgment. Leave it to the people. The recall will not, and is not intended to affect any judge who simply does his duty, and the discussion of the recall should be notice to the bench from Maine to the Pacific that there are wrongs to be remedied. A Canadian paper recently in discussing annexation said that it would bring to Canada "our tainted judiciary." Only a small percentage of the voters were at the polls Tuesday, but as usual, the people voted right. The art bonds were defeated five to one, and no doubt, on the theory that we could not afford the luxury at present. The court house bonds were also defeated. The past week made a wonderful change in sentiment on court house location. Many people opposed the court house bonds on account of the proposed civic centre. Now is the time for the establishment of the civic centre and no more public buildings should be built until the location has been secured. Seattle is already a big thing, and it has been made big by the push, energy and good judgment of the city officers backed by the people. Just look at it, and then think what it was twenty years ago and you can form some idea of the future. Judge Hanford gave Crawford and his handsome superintendent, of the Seattle, Renton and Southern, the worst jolt they ever experienced last week, when he dissolved his temporary injunction and refused the lawbreakers an appeal, and the next morning the company commenced issuing transfers to the Seattle Electric cars. Crawford has "bullied" the Rainier Valley people for a long time and the injunctions he has secured from our courts has given him a "full hand" for some time, but he became too arrogant and the "warriors" of Rainier Beach called a halt, and surely, they did Mr. Crawford up to a real "nice brown." The valley patrons now ride for five cents within the city limits and get transfers for the asking. They were entitled to these concessions for the past four or five years, and for the taking of the people's money wrongfully during that time we will not give a name. Criminal charges are still pending against participants on both sides, and now that Mr. Crawford has given the people their rights, if consistent within their duties, we would like to see these cases dismissed by the district and practicing attorneys, and permit peace and harmony to prevail. The Rainier Valley has been retarded in growth and increase in population for the past five years on account of the management of the street car service and now that these obstacles have been removed, give the people a chance to forgive and forget. The Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Fisher, has just returned from Alaska, and will now report his conclusions of law and fact to the President. His report will no doubt recommend some plan whereby the coal fields of that country may be developed, and in the Bp A. G. McBRIDE FRIDAY. Sept. 8. 19 FRIDAY. Sept. 8. 1911 meantime, the courts and the departments keep grinding away for the purpose of cancelling fraudulent entries and punishing fraudulent entrymen. Living as I have, during the greater part of my life in a country that was settled by homesteaders, and having been engaged in the practice before the Department of the Interior, I am in a position to know something about the manner in which the commissioners of the general land office and secretary of the interior departments were conducted during the past thirty years, and I do not hesitate to say that the government should have the principle of estoppel applied to it in these criminal causes that have been commenced. The conduct of those departments were a disgrace and as rotten and corrupt as they possibly could be. The government, that has winked at fraud and corruption for so long a time should have given the land, timber, coal and oil thieves notice that they must be good and it is unjust and unfair to jump onto these collectors of land, coal and timber claims without warning. Space will not permit me to enter into particulars, but I must mention the manner in which the acts of Congress were set aside in the interest of speculators in one instance. I believe it was in 1898, that Congress passed a homestead law for Alaska. President McKinley signed the bill. While Herman of Oregon was commissioner, he annulled the law, and no entries were permitted. An appeal was taken to the Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Hitchcock, who has the reputation of being an honest man, and he promptly sustained Mr. Herman in annulling the law. The excuse that Herman gave was that the act of Congress made no provision for a survey. But, the commissioner and the Secretary of the Interior held that the land that could not be taken as a homestead, could be entered if paid for in script, and mark you, under a law that also made no provision for a survey, but to aid the script speculators, they were permitted to hire a surveyor and in that manner locate their land. The law that permitted entries to be made for mercantile purposes, also contained no provisions for a survey, but these entrymen were also permitted to cause their own survey to be made, the same as script locators, but the homesteader, who was willing to hire his own surveyor and locate his claim, was knocked out. The government has been a party to fraudulent entries and land stealing for about fifty years and it should have given its accomplices notice of its regeneration and purification. A rumor has been afloat for several days that "Wappy had peached." This is, however, denied by the friends of the ex-chief. Strenuous efforts have been made to get Wappy to confess, and no doubt, he has been offered tempting inducements, but he still stands pat. It is claimed that Wappy could tell several things about the Colonel, and some of those interested in the graft prosecutions would gladly see Wappy escape punishment if that would ensnare the titled gentleman at Second and Union. The time when the golden rule shall be the universal rule of conduct is still in the distant future. A few men and a boy are now working on Dearborn Street on the west side of THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Twelfth Avenue. Work on the west side was stopped last fall on account of the rain and only resumed a few weeks ago. The whole summer was allowed to pass by without anything being done on that part of the regrade, and of course, in a few weeks when the rains commence, work will again be stopped. Some officers as well as men are fearfully and wonderfully made. Fifth Street, that required a fill to make it passable, is being improved. This work should have been done about three months ago, and why it was during that time left in the condition described is one of the civil engineering problems that the man with less than a technical education does not understand. This apparent tardiness is annoying to the people. There may be good reasons for it, and if there are, the officers should explain. "Jimmy" Hoge, the giant little financier, was in New York three or four months ago, and when he returned, one of the daily papers quoted him as saying that the financial depression would continue until after the presidential election. Now, a few weeks ago he was again quoted by a local daily, in which he was reported to have said that times were getting better and would continue to do so. Now what is bothering the writer is, was the little giant correctly quoted, and if so, which statement is correct? The people generally have an idea that the great banking institutions of Wall Street control the good and hard times, and when he returned from the East and said, "Hard times, boys," that the declaration was inspired. President Taft vetoed the act of Congress passed at the special session in which Schedule "K," the tariff on woolen goods, was materially reduced. It was that part of the Payne-Aldrich tariff that the president condemned and in one of his speeches declared that it was indefensible. The reductions made in the bill would have reduced the price of a suit of clothes from five to ten dollars. This veto looks like a blunder. The president indulged in several other vetoes that will cost him heavily in votes, but some excuse can be made for all but that of Schedule "K." "What will the harvest be?" Has any timber been discovered suitable for the construction of a governor? When we think of a Squire, a Ferry, a Rogers, or a McGraw, will the people be satisfied with less suitable material? Old-line politics seems to be doomed on the Pacific Coast, and Washington will hardly take a backward step. We want less politics in the governor's office as well as all other offices. The last elections in Oregon, California and Washington indicate as much. Who will make the discovery? Who will drag from his lair a suitable man for governor? William G. Potts, a former state senator from Seattle, made a hurried trip to Walla Walla a few weeks ago and after considerable explaining he convinced the authorities that he was not the Potts wanted and he was permitted to go his way. He returned home a few days ago looking the picture of health, his experience to the contrary notwithstanding. 3 CULLINGS OF COUNTRY PRESS. According to the Herald of North Yakima Speaker Champ Clark has reached "the point with pride" state, the rock on which so many Republican crafts went to pieces. Yes indeed the Standard Oil Company has dissolved alright and the books of the concern closed forever, but the Standard Oil goes bravely on clipping coupons in the same old way. Gifford Pinchot is now well on his way to Alaska and he says, "I go with an open mind." To the average person Pinchot's mine has been open so long that all of the common sense has run out of it. Recently a mob in Idaho took the life of a half breed Indian, who had killed his wife, who was likewise a half breed. A white man was an accessory to the crime, he being with the half breed when he committed the act, but the mob did not touch a hair in his head. Even mobs draw the color line. There is a difference in human nature like the wideness of the sea and nothing more clearly demonstrates that fact than, when a man in Seattle a few days ago committed suicide because a woman refused to kiss him, and that woman has not been yellow journaled for her beauty either. In the opinion of the White River Journal the move on the part of the citizens of Kent to put the city under a commission form of government is a good one, and if done will be a marked improvement over the system now in vogue in that municipality. Those cities that have tried the commission form of government are well satisfied with it and if it works well for other cities there is no reason why it should not work just as well for Kent. "Women on Washington juries will surely be a blessing and not in disguise either," argues the Citizen of Anacortes. We think so and have thought so for lo these many years, which prompted us, since the mind of The Seattle Republican runneth not to the contrary, to advocate equal suffrage for women. When the Star of Seattle asks, "What's the matter with the churches?' it gives itself away. There is nothing the matter with the churches and if that wild eyed anarchist that edits the Star would only go to church now and then, he too, would find out that there is nothing in the world the matter with the churches, only the bad people dont go and get made better. Under the caption of, Will Can Clams, the Irondale News tells at length of a new departure in the canning business, in which the Bugge Cannery at Washington Harbor is about to embark. If the public relishes the new can goods the Bugge concern and all other like canneries ought to make a fortune out of it in a short time as Puget Sound seems to have more clams to the square inch than the balance of the world combined. "Both Bob Bridges and Frank Terrace are farmers, that is Bridges is a pen and ink farmer and Terrace is a real farmer," declared the Patriarch last week. There is no denying it Daddy, but Bridges has succeeded in becoming a millionaire by his farming while Terrace is still plodding along as of yore. A correspondent in the Post-Intellingencer seems to have been unduly anxious to learn as to whether the marrying of cousins was illegal and to that end sought the advice of the paper. Perhaps the anxiety of the writer is due to the fact that he or she desired to marry a first cousin. The marriage of cousins is illegal and it should be criminal and the persons willfully breaking the statutes in that respect ought to be sent to states prison for life. In speaking about its contemporary the Auburn Republican says, "After several serious smash ups the small pox sheets have secured the services of a new chaffeur." In another paragraph it says, "No man ever made a success by trying to haul down somebody else and climb into prominence over his prostrate body." Consistency thou art a jewel. Unless the Hoquiam Sawyer has gotten its fingers crossed, Mason, Pacific, Jefferson and Klallam counties will get 29,000 Swiss emigrants in 1912, who are to get title to 600,000 acres of wild lands, which they will turn into profitable farms. Already $750,000 are on deposit in the state to pay for the lands as soons as the title has been perfected. Well that sho' is coming our way. "The man that goes round with a Uriah Heap on his head all the time needs watching every day in the week. "says the Sun of Sunnyside. We guess you ought to know neighbor for you have been accused of being that kind a feller. "The fall elections will show us if the breeze is still blowing Democratic," sagely remarks the Monitor-Transcript of Monroe. As much as we dislike to admit it, yet we are inclined to believe it will. The Independent of Olympia is absolutely correct about the tax payers of Seattle being up in arms at the expense of the board for an accountant to examine the books of the city and all because they do not believe the politicians appointed by those state house officials having power to do so are any more honest than the accountants employed by the city. The board of accountants is nothing more or less than another spoke in a great political wheel that is being built up in this state for the perpetuation of a few parasites in public office. We have almost reached the conclusion that if a clean sweep was made at the state house and ninty nine and nine tenth percent of all of the commisions and boards were killed the tax payers would be the beneficiaries thereby. "Many a man when he thinks a mortgage bought it cannot look his automobile in the face" says the Vancouver Spokesman. No, but he does look lovingly in the face of the woman he has joy riding with him while his wife is sick in the hospital, and he is glad he got the machine, though he loses the home of his wife and children on account of having bought it. A signed communication appeared in the Tribune-Times of Pt. Angeles in its last issue and the person signing it was none other than R. C. Wilson, who was once state senator from Clallam and Jefferson counties and subsequently a prominent business man of Seattle. Mr. Wilson, however, dropped out of the lime light all of a sudden and it has been the seven day wonder among those, who knew him best, THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN as to what became of him, and it now transpires that he is again in Pt. Angeles clipping coupons and living in perfect ease and comfort. Evidently he no longer has political ambitions. The Gray's Harbor News curtly says, "Champ Clark, Senator LaFollette and President Taft are having a hard time trying to decide which is the black sheep." Judging from the comment one hears as he meets his fellow men, the public is likewise trying to decide which, one of them is the blackest sheep. Recently an election was held in North Yakima and Leigh R. Freeman, the well known publisher, was a candidate for one of the commissions and was defeated and commenting upon it the Independent of that city said, "Leigh R. Freeman's vote was not at all commensurate with the estimate he is held by the good people of this city," His efforts to be United States senator seems to have met with the same disastrous results as did his efforts to be commissioner of North Yakima. That name Freeman is a jonah for the foul mouth son of Leigh R. Freeman, who resides in Seattle has met the same results in his political efforts in this city as has the father in North Yakima. "Where are we drifting?" asks the Aberdeen Herald. Unfortunate for the financial good of the country we seem just now to be drifting into the Democratic party, but it will be a sad day for the whole country when we get into it. "Live each day so you wont feel nervous in the presence of a policeman," says the Sumas News, and permit us neighbor to add, "and look every dam man in the eye and tell him to go to hell." In speaking about Representative Humphrey the Snohomish Tribune says, "His best friends would not recognize him now. He is sporting a full beard, black as night. It is said by some of his best friends in Seattle that since he got the jolt he did last fall in King county, that Will E. has failed to recognize them since his return from Washington City. "It is the man who hollows fire in a crowded house, whether true or false, that should be first extinguished," says the Winona News, to which we desire to add, Amen. It is learned from the Washington Standard that C. C. Aspinwall, superintendent of the State Training school at Chehalis, has just returned from an extended trip throughout the East at the expense of the state. He was accompanied on the trip by his wife, and she too went at the expense of the state. No wonder the taxes are so outrageously high, when state officials are permitted to take expensive junketing trips every year all over the country, living on the fat of the land and charge the same up to the state. Such trips are so close to receiving money under false pretenses that the next legislature ought to pass a bill making it a crime for a state official to leave the state and charge the expenses up to the state. Not satisfied with himself being on the pay roll with an expense account three and four times larger each month than his regular salary, this man as others working for the state always manage to get their wives on the pay roll, who are paid fabulous salaries in comparison to the wages of other women, FRIDAY. Sept. 8. 1911 as good by nature and far better practice, to look after their household duties. So many local papers are being edited at long distance these days that in culling from one paper you had better read over the whole exchange list to see, if the article is not a stock article and in giving one paper credit for it you find that fifty or a hundred more are as much entitled to the credit as the one you desire to credit it to, and that after all the one really due the credit is some publicity bureau in some of the larger cities. Do your work yourself. When the P.-I. says, "Another thing Secretary Fisher has probably learned that Alaska is too big to be gobbled up all of a sudden, even by such captains as Morgan and Guggenheim," the P.-I. seems to have a more contracted view of the qualifications of those fellows of absorbing every thing straight and crooked than they themselves are willing to admit. Alaska would be gobbled by that brace of highbinders and in two hours after having done so it would be so well digested that theywould be ready to gulp down everything else good that Uncle Sam has on or in the Pacific ocean. That hotel man quoted by the P.-I. to the effect that, "I have seen all of the cities of the West and none of them is in running with Seattle." must have a contract to sell to the City of Seattle automobiles for her city officials. JOB PRINTING Phone Main 305 Mr. Trimble for Governor the foremost business men and well known citizens of Seattle tor a suitable gubernatorial candidate from King County, as a suc- cessor to the present Governor of the great State of Washington, they finally reached the conclusion that Wm. Pitt Trimble, a well known Seattle business man and extensive property holder in Se- attle and other parts of the state, is the most logical man for Seattle to put forward, providing he will permit the use of his name in that connection. Those persons who have interested them- selves in the gubernatorial succession, on speaking to Mr. Trimble of their conclusions, found him rather reticent on the subject and before giving it any serious consideration he desired to have sume expression from the voters and the state press. There is, now- ever, no doubt in the minds of those who have been seeking a broad gauged and liberal minded man for the Republican guber- natorial nomination from Seattle, that a great majority of the voters of King County would give Mr. Trimble their undivided support, thus making of him the acknowledged King County gubernatorial candidate, if he showed any strength in the other counties of the state. Wm. Pitt Trimble is a man of wonderful personel and makes his mark in whatever he undertakes. He is a‘man of high ideals and a man who. stands for the purity of home in the broadest and most liberal sense of the word. On all public questions he is fair and just, exacting of no man more than he himself would be will- ing to give. His theory of the solution of all public questions is that men should consult together without either the majority or the minority imposing upon the other, and a happy conclusion of the whole reached after having reasoned together. For more than twenty years Mr. Trimble has taken an active interest in the de- velopment of Seattle, and he has always argued that the rich and the poor, one and alike, should be fully heard on all matters of vital importance to the taxpayers that justice be meted out to all concerned. Mr. Trimble believes that taxation in the State of Washington is too high and that it is either taking from the poor and middle classes the homes they have previously paid for or it is preventing such persons from acquiring homes at all, and unless this evil is radically remedied it will have a depressing effect on the future development of the state, for the real wealth of any state or com- munity is the extensive owning of homes on the part of the work- ing men and women thereof. When the taxes on a home is as great as the rent for the same property would be, there is no longer an incentive to own a home, and as soon as such a condition is brought about, class feeling arises. The state seems to be top heavy with commissions, traveling auditors and inspectors, whose salaries and traveling expenses are largely responsible for the ex- cessive taxation with which the property holders are burdened, and it should be the duty of the next state administration to make an honest effort to bring about retrenchment along that line. Few if any persons in the state have been more active in the development of good roads than Mr. Trimble. He has always contributed liberally for the good roads campaigns and has been on hand at the meetings held to further on the cause. He believes that the building of good roads throughout the state means a rapid development of the varied resources of every section of the whole Northwest. the workingman, the miner, the lumberman, the mer- chant, the business man, and all manner of man would be greatly benefited and with the delightful climate with which the grand state of Washington is blessed, the building of. good roads would mean the coming of many additional thousands, of tourists every year. Mr. Trimble believes that the building of good roads should not be taken up as a hobby, but as a business proposition in the interest of the development of the state and the whole country. Mr. Trimble is proud of the fact that-he has always been an enthusiastic advocate of woman suffrage and when the women of the state of Washington were battling for human rights and equal justice he was to be found in the thickest of the fight. He is the son of a Kentucky father; who, in spite of local conditions, openly fought against the principle of human chattels, and when that ques- tion had been settled forever and the father laid to rest, the son sisters of the men, who made it possible for this to be, “The land of the free, and the home of the brave,” not only in theory, but in fact, equal rights for all. : The resources of the State of Washington are so varied and likewise numerous that there need not be any serious conflict be- tween labor and capital for the next fifty years, and ere that time, it is earnestly hoped, that a satisfactory solution to the mooted labor question will have been discovered. Mr. Trimble, however, has always maintained that the highest wages possible should be paid to the laborer whether such be skilled or otherwise. In all troubles arising between the employer and the employe, he believes in the arbitration of the differences, and he further believes that unless such a course be pursued sooner or later a serious conflict between capital and labor will be precipitated. He argues, all men are born equal, and when troubles arise between them it is their duty as men and brothers to reason together, each giving and tak- ing that the troubles may be amicably adjusted. Should the friends of Mr. Trimble, who are seeking his consent to use his name in connection with the next Republican. guber- natorial nomination and election, finally succeed in their undertak- ing, and should he ever be governor of the State of Washington, the poor man the same as the rich man would always receive a warm welcome at his office, and the advice of the working man as eagerly sought by him as that of the wealthy man. In the : ey... : Goa Ba eS; ae = a : ‘4 ; > : be ee oe oy development of the latent resources of the state, he would take both labor and capital into his confidence and endeavor to act for the best.interest of all concerned. It requires the harmonious work+ ing of labor and capital to assure the speedy development of this or any other state, territory or community, and if the two work at cross purposes the development is bound;to be’slow, if at all. Wm. Pitt Trimble has always affiliated with the Republican party, but in spite of his party affiliations he has always shown more oz less political independence and refused to accept the “ye). ow dog” theory, and support vicious men for office because the: daim to be Republicans. He is still of the opinion that men shoul, aot become so party blind as to elect persons to office, when they have reasons to believe such persons will use the office as a means of imposing upon the taxpayers. All things being equal he believes n electing the party candidate. As a final word to all we positively state that Wm. Pitt Trimble is not connected in anyway with a political machine; he is free to act on all questions. Respectfully submitted, | CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE, es By L. H. Gray.
