The prospects of losing $25,000 would make you deny yourself much less a wayward son. Here is to hoping that Goddard will not only put the auto grafters on the run, but will run them in. In planning to leave Oklahoma for Africa the Negro is jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. President Taft took a day off. The Insurgents are hoping to give him a life time off. Maine is wet by twenty-six. Two thirteens is enough to make an Indian statute wet. There may be many jobs open in Seattle, but they seem to close up when you go to look for them. With Jim Ham Lewis in the senate Joe Baily would soon be forgotten by the general public. Owning both the Seattle and Vancouver jams Dugdale has caught the suckers going and coming. Judge Grosscup refuses to quit under fire. Then jump in the fire and quit. Single tax is said to work well in Vancouver. What's the use adopting the thing, if it has to work? The state of Maine is always in a stew, when she is not dry she is wet, and vice versa. Blot it out. It's a fact that money talks, but not half as loud and long as do taxes in Seattle. Taft's vetoes seem to worry him more than they do the voters, from the amount of explaining he is doing. Who said Humphrey and Stan Warburton were the Mutt and Jeff of the house of representatives? And yet they look like it. "God Bless Our Home" sounds good, but there are a whole lot of us who would like to know, what for? Wonder if the "lambs" of the United States will recognize their master's voice while he is swinging 'round the circles? In declaring for peace Japan seems only parring for time to better prepare for war. Evidently Johnny Bull suspected Laurier had Uncle Sam up his sleeve in his recipcity fight. --- CURRENT COMMENT. Whether the state of Maine went wet by twenty-six or dry by 300 is of little or no consequence so far as the aftermath is concerned. The mere fact that out of thousands of votes, which have for the past fifty years been overwhelmingly against the sale of liquor, to have so completely reversed themselves as the late main election shows, is sufficient proof that the people of Maine are anxious to adopt the open saloon as has the most of the other states of the Union. Individually we are with the drys, but generally we are for each man to settle for himself what he wants to do on the drink subject, and which ever way the majority is we are willing to abide by its decision. We repeat a former statement herein that, the open saloon in the United States is the burning question of the hour, but to our mind it is not so much the open saloon that hurts, as the damnable treat habit. War between Turkey and Italy has been imminent for the past week and even yet the war clouds have not wholly blown over though it is believed the powers will be able to pour oil on the troubled waters. Like the recent threatened war between Germany and France it is over African possessions. The European powers have divided up the continent of Africa to suit themselves and when one gets more than the other fellow thinks he or she ought to have then war is threatened until the other powers of Europe rush to the rescue and settle the dispute. Some day the African natives will make it so darn hot for the whole bunch of them that hell itself will be an icebox in comparison. If never before Uncle Sam fathered a black prince he did so in Jack Johnson, the heavyweight champion of the world, who is now in training quarters near Paris preparing to meet a boxing antagonist, who thinks he can either beat Johnson or make it a draw, which in fact would be the same as beating him, but Johnson is the hero of the hour and he is making almost as much money at his training quarters as he will at his fight. He is not only attracting attention by his clever boxing stunts, but the army of servants and attendants he has about him. He says never again will he live in the United States, but Paris for him. President William Howard Taft, who is now well in the West, on his great swing around the circle tour, for the purpose of personally explaining to the people his views on public matters, is not doing himself any harm so far as the West is concerned, but it has been hinted that he is showing so much political independence and declaring so radically in favor of measures in the interest of the people and antagonistic to the money powers that, he may be doing himself more harm in the East than he is doing himself good in the West. While he has not retracted a single iota so far as his vetoes are concerned, yet his explanations of them have so well pleased those voters of the West he has met and those who have read his speeches that, if he continues throughout his trip as he has done thus far the Insurgents will not have a leg to stand on and the trusts will be pronouncing Taft far from politically safe and sane and though they may permit him to be nominated they will see to it that, he is defeated by a safe and sane Democrat they will have nominated against President Taft. The attorneys for the McNamaras are doing a good deal of wiggling and twisting and taking up lots of the court's time arguing technical questions that have little or no bearing on the case, all of which goes to prove that, they have a dangerous case and are afraid to make square trial of it. McNamara has been re-elected secretary of the Structural Bridge and Ironworkers' Association and was voted a gold badge by the order, but if half of the reports about his connection with the heinous crimes that order is held responsible for it will be a hempin and not a gold badge that he will wear before many more moons. Like Seattle San Francisco has undergone a thorough municipal renovation and the whole bunch of grafters and semi-grafters have been driven from office, which means that the Golden Gate City is making preparations to handle her coming fair with business and dispatch and as much as possible have grafting cut out. San Francisco has been the eye sore of the Pacific Coast, and reform workers have not been able to do much toward cleaning up the various cities on account of San Francisco always maintaining a wide open town and a nest for grafters and thieves. Now that she has decided to give herself a wholesome cleanup let's hope she will continue in that condition and help the other coast cities drive the thugs and thieves from this coast, even if they have to be driven into the Pacific ocean. HOW SINGLE TAX WORKS A single tax law has been in operation in Vancouver, B. C., for a little more than a year, although the community has been educating itself up to this method of obtaining municipal revenue since 1905. The present mayor, L. D. Taylor, was originally elected on a single tax platform, and is now serving his second term. He is at present visiting in New York, where he has been interviewed with regard to the practical workings of the single tax idea, and what he has to say is interesting. It appears that Vancouver began to experiment with single tax in a moderate way. It did not, that is, undertake to apply the Henry George system all at once, nor has it done so fully as yet. The first step was to exempt from taxation 25 per cent of the value of improvements. This was done without creating disturbance or deficit, and two years later 50 per cent of the value of improvements was exempted, with similar satisfactory results. The great step of all came later, Country Press and Comment when assessments on improvements were entirely removed, and that year the tax rate remained as it was the previous year. Mayor Taylor says the tax rate has not gone up as a consequence of the new law; it is only 22 mills on the dollar, a rate which he considers low for a young and growing city. Taxes are now levied in Vancouver, for municipal purposes, on land values only. The provincial government, however, levies taxes for other purposes in accordance with the old plan, so that single taxes are, in a measure, justified in holding that even here the Henry George system is not being tested with entire fairness. Nevertheless, in the estimation of impartial observers, it will appear that the experiment is being carried along in Vancouver on lines broad enough to exhibit with sufficient strength and clearness all that is meritorious in the plan. Assessments are made annually, and since the elimination of improvement taxes began there has been, it is said, a steady increase in valuations. The present year, for instance, they have increased 25 to 30 per cent over last year, and Mayor Taylor is willing to be quoted as saying, without qualification, that the law is working out successfully. He claims that it has had a tendency to encourage owners of vacant property to build. In 1910 there were 80 per cent more building permits issued than in 1900, and this year the permits will exceed in number those of last year by fully 25 per cent. These permits are for residences, office buildings, stores and warehouses. In arriving at the valuation of land, the practise in Vancouver is to get as nearly as possible to the last selling price. The assessment is made on a basis of 65 per cent of this valuation; thus, a lot valued at $1,000 is taxed at $650. If two pieces of property lying side by side are under consideration, and one bears a thirteen story building while the other has a four story structure, the owner of the latter must pay the same tax as the owner of the former. In other words, as Mayor Taylor puts it, "instead of fining a man for improving his property, we put the weight of a fine on the man who doesn't. We do not believe that the man who erects a handsome residence or an office building on his lot should be fined for the energy he displays." Mayor Taylor, after witnessing the success of the exemption of improvements from taxation in the city, says he is convinced that the system should be applied to the country in general. The natural resources and the land should, he believes, bear all the burden of taxation. At the next provincial election he will make the race for membership in the House on this platform. "You can imagine," he says, "how British Columbia would grow if all improvements, all merchandise and all machinery were exempt from taxation." Possibly the distinction of being the first of the larger political divisions of the earth to demonstrate the soundness or the unsoundness of the Henry George theory of rational and equitable taxation may fall to the lot of this progressive northwestern province.—Hoquiam Washingtonian. If Canada does not want to be reciprocal then the United States should reciprocate in kind. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Following in the wake of the Capital Record the papers of the state are giving wide publicity to an editorial under the caption, "The Government Costs Too Much." Yes indeed it costs entirely too much to run this government and a halt should be called immediately if not sooner. "Many congressmen are getting their index fingers crossed to point with pride to their records in the extra session," says the Rockford Register. Well, if they do, it will be the last time they ever point to it. The record the members of congress made in the extra session is to their everlasting disgrace and should defeat every mother's son of them. That was a roasting that you read about, which the Colton News Letter administered to the Wood-Reeber outfit, who always manages to knock everything it is not allowed to squeeze. That brace of publicity holdups have worked the country papers into publishing candidates' dope for nothing, when they get good round sums of money for it, and because L. H. Gray would not stand for their graft, they are trying to knock the candidacy of Wm. Pitt Trimble—simply befouling their own nests. We almost agree with the Fairfield Standard in that, "Secretary Wilson has long since outlived his day of usefulness as a member of President Taft's cabinet," and the sooner he retires therefrom the sooner will President Taft's political stock take a rise. Under the capition of "Okumoff" the Tribune-Times took a fall out of the sainted Wood-Reber holdups that was worth its weight in gold. The country press is learning how its confidence has been abused by the Wood-Reber publicity bunch and hence it is not taking much stock in its howl at Gray because he would not stand for being robbed. Without any intention of being over inquisitive, we would like to know, what's the matter with the Olympia Independent? Its former bright crisp editorial thoughts seem to have rapidly gone to seed and it is now badly troubled with the boiler plate disease. It looks as if the Journal of Kelso is the whole show among the newspapers of that section, as it recently closed a contract with a firm for 1,000 inches to be used in 1912. If it got a good round business rate for the space there is no doubt but that things are coming its way. "With sugar, coal, wood and other necessities keepong up stiff prices, what is the man working for $1.50 per day going to do?" inquires the Sumner Index. Sooner or later he is going to kill somebody for putting things in that condition. Blackberries by the carload are still being shipped from Sumner, it is learned from the Index. Evidently Sumner has a great host of blacks thereabouts. If the voters of this country are doing a lot of thinking on the political issues as says the Sun of Sunnyside, it is something they have not done for many years. In 1896 when Bryanism was at white heat the voters did a whole lot of thinking on the issues of that campaign, but that over, they have FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1911 thought darn little since, and as a result, the grafter has been getting in his work. We know Alice Lord is a better man than some of the men who will vote for her for representative, as thinks the Patriarch, and she is better by a good deal than some of those who will not vote for her, for an example, Editor Clayson, who is a candidate for secretary of state. Pitted against Editor Clayson Miss Lord would get ten votes to his one. Editor Jesup of the Bremerton Searchlight occupied the pulpit of one of the churches of that city last Sunday and for his services, was allowed five dollars, which reminds us of the story of the colored "passun," that was on his way to preach at the Cross Roads, and met a dude white fellow going to see his girl, who asked him where he was going, and how much he got for preaching, and was told, "ten cents a day, sir." "That's damn poor pay," he exclaimed. Whereupon the colored man quickly replied, "and its damn poor preach da git, sir." It seems "ahfully quer" for the Observer of Sunnyside to wish that, "the editor-in-chief of the Seattle Times would go into a cataleptic trance for about seventy-three years," on account of the ideas the colonel advances, but that is just what it has done, and, it occurs to us, the editor of the Observer does not entertain a very high idea of the editor of the Times, Col. Alden Jay. "If the best laid plans do not miscarry Cle Elum will soon have a new shipping coal mine," says the Echo of that city. If the new mine is to be controlled by the trust as are the present mines of that locality, so far as the general public is concerned, it will not give a tinker's damn whether there is or is not a new mine there. There are already sufficient mines opened, if the output was not absolutely controlled by a heartless trust, to give the consumers fuel at prices twice and three times less than the coal costs the mine owners. There are no houses for rent in Bothell, according to the Sentinel of that city, and it is out advocating the building of tenement houses so that the city folk may be accommodated. If that should be done, dear neighbor, then you would be kicking because there were so many vacant houses for rent. Take it as you find it and you will be in much better mood over it all. When the Wilbur Register quotes from The Seattle Republican it ought to quote correctly and not garbble up the quotation so as to make its readers think that it fafored the candidacy of its owner for governor by leaving out the parts that would explain the other parts. The state press is far from being a unit for Governor Hay and it is hinted he will not have a single leading daily paper supporting him, which means he will have to spend $100,000 to succeed himself. The Union Labor organizations have finally discovered the manner in which a strike can be made effectual, and that is, by making it general. Don't kick. Labor produces the wealth, and give the boys their share. THE PEOPLES' FORUM FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 29. 1911 Eugene Lorton, founder of the Vancouver Spokesman, has sold his interest in the paper and will go to Oklahoma to assume the business management of a well established daily paper of that state. Mr. Lorton is succeeded by Herman W. Ross, who says the Spokesman is in good financial condition and is practically out of debt. The Blaine Journal in its last issue showed a group picture of the Morrison brothers of that city, six in number, all members of the same mill firm. No wonder the Journal printed the picture because it was a pretty fine show of human flesh. For the ensuing year you will find The Seattle Republican interesting reading matter. Would you like to have us put you on our subscription list for the year? Write us a card or, if you are in the city, telephone us, Main 305, and we will do the rest. TOO MANW COMMISSIONS.—William Pitt Trimble, whose friends are urging him to become a candidate for governor, is said to be strongly in favor of retrenchment in public expenditures, and as a means to this end favors the abolishment of some of the numerous commissions with which the state is today burdened. There is no question but that the state is going the commission way pretty fast, and the way the expenses are increasing it is about time some one undertook to quell the madness. We have commissions for everything imaginable, from measuring the length of our sheets to managing the railroads, and each one has its retinue, or rather, army of employes who are eating up the taxes about as fast as the taxpayer can pay them in. The people got the idea into their heads that there was altogether too much politics and graft in the management of state and national affairs, and they have gone to the other extreme, and are now getting a little too much "scientific" management. Government is not unlike ordinary business, and in business life the man who succeeds is the one who applies "horse" sense along with careful management. To see the way in which matters are drifting, one has only to look back over the past three years and attempt to explain where all the money which was paid into the state highway fund has gone. It certainly has not been spent in actual road making, but was expended to keep up an expensive "scientific" road commission. This was done because it was "found" that the farmers and ordinary taxpayers who were elected as county commissioners were not honest and capable enough to spend this money. Raymond Herald. Smiling Crawford is in a fair way of getting his smile ran over by a municipal street car. While money "makes the mare go," if your steed happens to be a horse it will move him on in the same old way. San Francisco turned down the Micks down to turn up the Sheeneys. Now how about the Shines? If the mayor of Indianapolis imagines a carload of spuds will have any visible effect on the market of that city he is evidently a humburg instead of a potato bug. Vancouver boasts of single tax, but Seattle has her bested with a double-tax-one for legitimate purposes, and the other for official automobiles. A man named Perrin, who happens to be the new manager of the Seattle, Renton and Southern, and who was sent to Seattle from Chicago to teach the Rainier Beach people a few things, blew into the city hall one day last week and looked up Mr. Valentine. This "big wind" from the windy city said he was there to see about the confiscation of the Crawford street car line. At that time he did not see much to feast his eyes on, but he will "see things" when Lawyer Hughes gets ready to move. If taking the Renton line under a city charter and franchise that expressly provides therefor is confiscation, I wonder what he calls what Crawford has been doing to the patrons of that line? Charging fifteen cents for a single trip within the city limits in violation of law could not truthfully be given so mild a name. Refusing transfers, to which the people were entitled is another, and in that manner, thousands of dollars have been wrongfully taken from the settlers living in the Rainier Valley. According to the ideas of right and wrong, as developed in the new manager, this wrongful taking of their money is all right, viewed, of course, from the ethical standpoint of a man from Chicago, but here in the West, we call it a very unlady like name. Mr. Crawford forced this "confiscation" on the people. A man with a grain of sense might have known that the course taken by the management of that line would result in some move that would protect the people. There will be one regret connected with this matter. Taking the line to the city limits still leaves Mr. Crawford a few miles of track into Renton. He should be completely eliminated from street car control in King county. It was President Taft's versatile genius that made him such a valuable man in the Roosevelt cabinet and he proved himself capable and efficient in every undertaking, but now we find him in a new role—that of a humorist. In Kansas, one day last week, he said that judges ought to be impeached, but not recalled, and he favored changes in the impeachment procedure. Now isn't that funny, side splitting mirth, to one who knows anything about the failure and success of impeachment trials? Only about a year ago the U. S. Senate sat as a court of impeachment and tried a federal judge from the South. There was no lack of evidence, but did that gang of corrupt and dishonest legislators impeach him? Of course not. Hasn't nearly every state in the Union, including Washington, had impeachment trials, and what did they amount to? The President must not be taken seriously on this subject—he must be taken as a humorist. A man recently died in Illinois from excessive laughter over a joke. This should be a warning to our ponderous President. One cannot help but admire the nerve of our militant sheriff. For the first time, I believe, since he has been in office, he turned into the county treasury last week the profits on boarding the federal prisoners. Heretofore, the commissioners refused to make some necessary changes and improvements in the jail kitchen and refused to employ THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN a jail matron, and Sheriff Hodge took this money, that ought to have gone into the treasury, and used it in the same manner as it should have been expended by the commissioners. I understand that not a penny of this money was used by Sheriff Hodge personally, and the use he made of the money was the use that should have been, but would not have been made by the board. The commissioners hired special counsel at an expense of five hundred dollars any they got after Mr. Bob. Now what Bob did to the commissioners and their five hundred dollars borders close onto the crime of cruelty to animals. But if I must say it, our Bob licked the whole outfit to a frazzle and I am not prepared to say in this instance "whatever is, is not right." The failure to secure sufficient names to recall Mayor Dilling and some of the councilmen conclusively shows that in Seattle, the recall is not a dangerous weapon. I believe a large majority of the electors, were a vote taken, would favor a change, the failure of the administration has been one of judgment. I have never heard Councilman Goddard's reputation for honesty question and his persistent fight for honest, clean government should meet with hearty encouragement. The new council has not been as economical as the hard times demand and so far as I know, Goddard has not had the support he should have from his fellow members. I am inclined to the belief that that man Goddard ought to be made mayor to succeed Dilling. It is reported that ex-Senator Wilson will soon leave for Egypt to remain until after the election. His paper is in better hands than it ever has been before and he will not need to worry about his business interests—at present, but when Hearst starts up, there will be a shaking up in the paper business in Seattle. Taft admits he isn't a politician. Speaker Clark should be equally sincere and make the same confession, for it was these two men who talked reciprocity to death. We are informed that Sheriff Hodge after reading last week's Republican concluded to drop out of the race for governor. Good boy!! It is rumored that he will become a candidate for county commissioner and if he does, it will be hard to find a man that can defeat him. The office of The Seattle Republican prints briefs at the most reasonable prices and would appreciate a trial. Main 305. NVICTOR MURDOCK, he of much Republican Insurgent fame, was a Seattle visitor this week, and while here spoke at the University of Washington. Murdock hails from bleeding Kansas and to sit through one of his political tirades you will be bleeding even worse than Kansas, if such a thing be possible. He hopes to carry Kansas against Taft both in the primaries and the general election, and since Kansas is given to chasing after the whimsical he may be able to do it. Detectives shadowed Judge Grosscup so long that he finally became overshadowed. By A. G. McBRIDE POLITICAL POT PIE HENRY B. DEWEY, if reports be true, is to quit the position of superintendent of public instruction of the state of Washington and make a fight to go to congress and succeed Stanton Warburton. In other words give up a cinch to chase after a vision. Professor Dewey may possess the elements of a statesman, but the Pie-maker seriously doubts it, and would suggest that, he hesitate and then hesitate again before giving up a snap for a snapper. MAYOR DILLING, who, it was declared, would practice economy in the performance of his duty as mayor of the city of Seattle, does not seem to be practicing what he preached, as he rides round in the city automobiles without the same being properly labeled the same as the other fellows, who take advantage of their official capacity to impose upon the taxpayers, by using the city automobiles for private purposes. There was and is no excuse for the recall of George W. Dilling as mayor of Seattle, but it would be an awful mistake to re-elect him. BOB HODGE is now being groomed for county commissioner instead of for governor, although Bob continues to say he is going to be a candidate for governor. It would be a bad blunder on the part of the taxpayers to elect Hodge as county commissioner because he would run things even more extravagantly than is Lafe Hamilton, and God knows that is saying a good deal. Things have been run so extremely extravagant at the court house by all concerned for so long that the taxpayers ought to see to it that, a complete sweep be made. HUGH C. TODD, the little whiffle, that wants to be nominated for governor by the Democrts, is not making as much headway since he moved to Seattle toward moulding public sentiment his way as he had imagined he would do, his taking his mid-day luncheon with the Disgruntled Club to the contrary notwithstanding. The Democrats of the state are inclined to give the nomination to some man like J. T. Ronald of Seattle, Jack Splawn of North Yakima or some other man of equal political experience and business affairs. THE POST-INTELLIGENCER evidently is taking itself seriously by imagining that the weekly press of the state is standing on tiptoe with abated breath watching and waiting to see, who it is going to support for governor, in order that it can jump in the band wagon. The most of the papers of the state come to the office of The Seattle Republican and we have failed to see wherein any of them have been making anxious inquiries about, what is the P.-I. going to do in the gubernatorial contest? Instead of being anxious as to what attitude it would take, the country press has been more of the spirit, don't give a damn. Three times has the P.-I. felt called upon to administer editorial soothing syrup to the weekly press, who had become peevish about what it was going to do in the gubernatorial contest, and it can be said without fear of successful contradiction that, it had seen nothing in the weekly press prior to either outbreak, unless in a dream, that jus- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN tified its becalming editorial. The weekly press of the state of Washington is as independent as a hog on ice and it is solicitous in no degree, as to what any of its big daily brother is going to do or whether in any brothers are going to do or whether in any sense it agrees with them. Do not take yourself serious, Mr. Editor. DON QUIXOTE CASE and Sancho Panzy Lincoln have sallied forth to defeat political wind mills and sign posts, and, as the brace struts up the streets of Seattle in quest of marauding enemies they present a most striking appearance. As long as Case was a member of the National Guard it was a great institution and he made an effort under its cloak to control the politics of Seattle, King county and the state of Washington, but was signally defeated. For the past seven years he has been graduating men in his office for political preferment and he himself has graduated in his own mind for the governorship and his Sancho Panzy chief deputy has graduated for county auditor and still some one else in his office is to graduate for county clerk and so will the auditor's office graduate some one for every position in the gift of the people for county and city jobs. Otto is evidently the worse Case of demagogery the state has ever seen and that is saying a good deal. JUDGE R. B. ALBERTSON is desirous, so say his friends, of being governor of the state, and if given any encouragement in the world will announce his candidacy. Well, with all due respect to Judge Albertson if he should do such a thing it would be the joke of the season. HON. LEE A. JOHNSON was in Seattle last week making arrangements to finance a big highland ditch in Yakima county that would bring into service many additional thousands of acres of rich soil. When seen by the Pie-maker he denied being in the city feeling out the political situation and said: "I know my name has been frequently mentioned in connection with the next Republican gubernatorial nomination, but I have had nothing to say about it nor did I inspire it. I want it distinctly understood I am no cat's paw to pull the chestnuts out of the fire and if my name is being used to defeat some objectional candidate I, under no circumstances, would permit the use of my name. If the people want me they will let me know it and unless I hear a distinct call from them I will not enter the contest. I do not intend to do anything that will retard or hinder the onward march of prohibition. I am a progressive but by no means a destructionist. I am a tariff reformer, but not on the lines mapped out by the Democrats. In short I am a Republican and by no means a political mongrel." IS WM. PITT TRIMBLE a logical candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination? was asked the Pie-maker one day this week, to which he replied: Just as logical as any one else, if not more than any one else that has as yet been mentioned in that connection. If any one can say aught against Mr. Trimble as a man and a citizen then we are perfectly willing to set FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1911 up and take notice. Mr. Trimble some years ago bought some real estate in Seattle and held on to it and as a result he is now conservatively estimated to be wealthy, but no one has ever heard of him taking advantage of any one in a transaction and he has lived a life above reproach. Mr. Trimble is truly a scholar and a gentleman. What more? HAY'S APPOINTEES. From time to time some newspaper or some officious politician has announced that some one holding an appointive office under Governor Hay would be a candidate against him for the gubernatorial nomination, and among the number so mentioned is John C. Lawrence, member of the railroad commission, Thomas A. Parrish, member of the tax commission, and John C. Perley. If any of those men should come out for the gubernatorial nomination after accepting appointments at the hands of the governor for a number of years such a person would not possess a single spark of manhood and deserves to be beaten so badly at the polls that he would not know he had even registered for the nomination. Of all persons to be despised it is the ungrateful person. Governor Hay may not be doing things as those men would have him do, but they would show that they are cowards and deceivers to live in his house as long as they needed assistance and then go out and try to pull it down on him while he is asleep. To pay $10,000 for the mayoralty of Seattle is a case of putting down the silent cash for a howling recall. There are Miles More of hard sledding before the Walla Walla banker will be even able to C. the Pacific Republic. Disqualify all candidates that refuse to be held up by the Wood-Reber publicity seems to be their tum-tum. It took blistering Kansas to warm Taft up to the situation, but once in working shape hot stuff came forth. Nadeau, Piles, Burke and Chilberg had their bee-gums on last Monday and we surmise some Japanese or Chinese cook must have landed that day. Perhaps the joke at which a man laughed himself to death, and which was forgotten in the excitement was, "Otto Case will be the next governor of Washington." The killing of a bear instead of a man was one of the many unfortunate occurrences of the past week. There seems to be nothing the matter with Kansas, but we are inclined to believe, the Kansasites are talking to Taft through their hats. Chief Bannick wants more policemen. Yes, we remember now the superior court has been sending a goodly number of Seattle policemen to the penitentiary. Unless President Taft cuts his trip short and returns to Washington City he will find himself in the Insurgent camp. Maine went wet in spite of the fact there are not to exceed a thousand Negro voters in the state. How about Brer Hazeltine? If as an evangelist Bryan can convert sinners into Christians as rapidly as he did hot-air into silver dollars, America will soon be sinnerless. L. H. GRAY FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1911 PERSONS TALKED ABOUT CHARLES I. ROTH, one of Bellingham's distinguished citizens, was doing business in Seattle this week and said, "Business is beginning to look up in our section of the state and we hope the worst is over. I have watched with considerable interest the gubernatorial crop of King county and have to smile when I hear the names of Hodge and Case mentioned in that connection. Those men may get a big vote in Seattle, but, in my opinion, they will cut a sorry figure in the other sections of the state." COL. W. F. PROSSER, who has been more or less prominent in the affairs of this state ever since it has been a state died at his home in Seattle last Sunday and was buried Monday. At a ripe old age he reentered the political arena under the guidance of "Majah" Case and met his Waterloo, which considerably soured his latter years. HOMER E. TURNER, with offices in the New York block, may be a candidate for superior court judge next year. He is one of the popular attorneys of the county and would make a great run. FRED C. BROWN, one of the justices of the peace of Seattle, is seriously thinking of shying his castor into the race for one of the judgements of King county next year and believes he has a show of winning. JOHN E. HUMPHRIES since the legislature has taken the nominating power away from the corporations may be a candidate for supreme judge next year. Judge Humphries and his advocates believe he was elected when he ran before, but was counted out. JUDGE J. T. RONALD is being importuned to run for governor next year on the Democratic ticket, and, if he so decides, he will retire from the bench. WILLIAM MARTIN, one of the best known attorneys in the Northwest, has recently returned from Alaska, whither he went to try a very important case. It is hinted that he may be a candidate for one of the King county superior court judgeships next year. He would make a splendid fight. JUDGE BOYD J. TALLMAN, it is reported, will not seek a renomination and election to the bench next year. THOMAS R. HORNER'S whispered intention of making a fight for mayor of Seattle next spring has not met with a flattering reception, and it is said that he will, in case he has not been sent to the penitentiary on account of the part he played in the anti-Hanford meeting, seek to oust John F. Murphy from the office of prosecuting attorney. JAMES A. MOORE is in the East hoping to overcome the obstacles thrown in THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN his way in regard to his successfully financiering the steel plant at Irondale, which has been and is still being done by some of the local banking houses, so it is commonly reported. L. H. GRAY of Seattle is one of the men that is very much in the public eye just now, so far as the country press of the state of Washington is concerned, and that, too, inspite of the fact that he was unaware of getting himself in the limelight. It seems that Mr. Gray made an effort to treat the newspaper men on the square and some of them not accustomed to good treatment got huffy about it and have tried to say ugly things about him, while others have given him credit for showing a disposition to be fair to the country press. The Argus of Seattle lead off in the criticism of Mr. Gray, not because it objected to getting a piece AY of money, but because the check it got was not as large as it got last year from Wood & Roeber in the Burke campaign. Then the Town Crier took a fall out of Mr. Gray because that concern was not given the job of doing the publicity work. Then the South Bend Journal showed up with an ugly criticism and when figured out it was due to the fact that its editor holds an appointment under Gov. Hay and is pledged to support Hay and discredit every other gubernatorial candidate. And as with these papers so with the one or two others that criticised him. But Mr. Gray is not thinned skind in the least and is enjoying the criticism and the general newspaper publicity he is getting out of it all. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that he has --- gotten as much publicity as though he had shot a bear instead of a man. CLINT W. HOWARD, the Bellingham whirlwind, who was responsible for Gov. Meade becoming a rabid prohibitionist, and who, it is said, tanked himself up to the last notch to make Meade's convention prohibition speech, was a Seattle visitor this week, but declined to discuss state politics. "GARD" KELLOGG, who has been a Seattle fire-fighter since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary, has finally got too old to fight fires and has retired on half-pay pension for the balance of his life. Who would have thought that "Gard" would or could have ever gotten too old to fight a fire, and yet he evidently has, which reminds the old timers that there are others getting badly mixed up with the shady side of life. H. L. HINDLEY, secretary of the Indus- trial Insurance Commission of the state of Washington, and likewise press agent for Governor Hay, who is traveling all over the state at the expense of the tax payers doing political stunts in the interest of Gov. Hay's candidacy for the renomination to succeed himself, has written to The Seattle Republican requesting that the paper be discontinued to the address of George A. Lee, chairman of the commission, if it is to support some one else for governor. Not only rob the tax payers out of thousands of dollars by charging up the traveling expenses to the state, while the multiplied hundreds of commissioners, auditors, adjustors and inspectors are out campaigning for Gov. Hay's nomination under the guise of doing duty for the state, but the state papers are to be brow-beaten and held up to public ridicule, if they dare oppose the state house ring, which is backing Gov. Hay and his parasites for a life tenure in office. Such a political ring as has the Washington state house in its grasp is a disgrace to American civilization. State politics is being aroused with a Trimble from Seattle that is producing a "set up and take notice" feeling. The state house ring has a Howell because the voters threaten to break it up. Secretary Fisher's private car accommodations has begun to bear fruit, as he is advocating the giving up of the Alaska coal fields to the thieves. If Commissioner Lee thinks the price of a subscription controls the editorial policy of this paper he is either a cheap skate or he believes the editor is. The Seattle Republican will publish your legal notices and give you a square deal. Call Main 305 and talk with us. One would suspect the law business rather rotten from the number of lawyers that want to be judges. King Lumber of the Northwest declares that Prince Reciprocity has given him a new crown.
