Main 305 427 Epler Block HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON, - - - Publisher SUSIE REVELS CAYTON, - - - Associate Blethen barking at the moon in trying to tear Reginald H. Thomson down. If "war is hell," as declared Gen. Sheridan, then hell is being overrun with Turks just now. Speaking about playhouses we are reminded that the Metropolitan of Seattle now has a Klaw at Cort. Marjorie Rieman has been exhibited enough in the courts to be quite a drawing card for her mother's road house. Former Secretary Ballinger is dying hard, but there is one thing certain, he is surely dying politically, if not already dead. Another reason why policement should not spy on other men's wives is, in doing so they may run on to their own wives in compromising positions. Another Seattle policeman has been found guilty of a heinous crime and at the rate they are being found guilty Chief Bannick will soon have to issue an emergency call. In Sending R. A. Ballinger gallavanting all over the country to look out for their interest, the Alaska coal thieves show how badly they hate to give up a good thing. "GEN." LEE, a Gov. Hay appointee, may be responsible for Hay's advocacy of the Federal government erecting a monument to the memory of the men who struggled for years to destroy it. King county is to pay a quarter of all the taxes of the state for 1912, and yet she does not get a single state office. What is that about "taxation without representation?" First Ward political bosses of the Harry Lake stripe seem doomed to don the stripes of the state for "delivering the goods." An honest man just cannot get a show. It begins to look as if the Seattle port commissioners will have to go over a good many Bridges before some people will be convinced that Mr. Graft will not be admitted. Women of the city out after hours, whether on business or larking, had better get a move on them when they see a policeman coming, as he cannot be trusted. "Support Hay for governor and I will subscribe for your paper, but will not pay until after the campaign in order that you will not fly the bargain."—George A. Lee, Chairman Industrial Insurance Commission. It was the wrong man that Commodore Perry's book drove to suicide, it should have been Cook instead of Astrip, for Astrip seems to have been an honest man while Cook seems to be the monumental liar of the age. Mayor Dilling says he actually found some things in other cities ahead of Seattle, but it was hardly the official misuse of automobiles. The cut in the county budget is so slight that it makes the commissioners smile. Inasmuch as Goddard's term as councilman expires next year there is no reason why he should not be elected mayor, which would mean cutting out the automobile misuse on the part of public officials. White man's angelic qualities were never more in evidence than when a number of them sold Indians a sufficient amount of whiskey to set the whole hundred mad with drink. Oh, ye Red Skins, emulate the white man if you would be a great people. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN THE PRESIDENT COMING. When William Howard Taft reaches Seattle next week, the President of the United States will be in our midst, and owing to the fact that he is President of the United States, a very remarkable personage will be in Seattle. It has been the custom of all nations since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary for the citizens to pay homage to their chief ruler when he or she appears among them as a visitor, and so the great turnout on the part of the citizens to see and meet the President of the United States will mean nothing as to the actual personal popularity of the man. After Theodore Roosevelt had retired from office and also returned from a hunting trip in the jungles of Africa he made a similar swing around the circles as the President is now making, and it will be remembered he was welcomed by millions of admiring fellow citizens, which demonstrated that Roosevelt was personally popular. Just now, however, President Taft is being very critically discussed by a great majority of the citizens of the United States and his every word and act are being carefully scrutinized and weighed. Is William Howard Taft President of the people or President of the trusts and corporate influence so common to this country?—is the question of the hour. By the progressive element in his own party he is looked upon as the tool of the corporations of the country, and yet he is making the present trip with the hope of disabusing the people's minds of that thought. Can he do it?—is the question. On this trip of explanation which he is making, he has made some very remarkable speeches and likewise made some very remarkable admissions concerning himself and his administration, but his speeches and his admissions do not seem to tally with his work in the White House, and though he talks most beautifully, yet the voters are not inclined to trust him, lest he, vulgarly speaking, be a wolf in sheep's clothing. He is being opposed by Roosevelt and while in case he is renominated Roosevelt may not openly oppose him, it is plain to be seen that he is persona non grata to him, but, it is argued, that even Roosevelt played horse when it came to the trusts and corporations and he received as much or more money from them for campaign purposes than did Taft's committee. However honest may be his intentions toward doing the right thing so far as the general public is concerned, he will lose many thousands of votes because he has been suspected. The Seattle Republican hopes that he will be given a free hand while in Seattle and be permitted to talk to the people and meet the people, even if it does not meet the wishes of the silk stocking gang that always monopolies the time of a President while he is in town. He will no sooner arrive in the city than will the representatives of the great corporations of the land with silk hats and automobiles surge around him and it will be as much impossible for a man in the ordinary walks of life to speak to him as it would be for a howling hyena to get near him. The President of the United States is nothing but a man and made out of the same kind of clay as every other man and possesses no superior ingredients over the average person you meet on the streets, and the people want to see the man and try to figure him out for their own satisfaction, and if not permitted to do so, they will let the corporation plug uglies go ahead and vote for him next fall. and they will vote for the other fellow whether he wholly meets their approval or not. TELEPHONE COMPANY GOT IT. Over in Indiana the municipality of Mt. Vernon had an arbitrary telephone company like unto the Sunset company in Seattle and it sought to overcharge the citizens so outrageously that the people got tired of it and at the expiration of its franchise the company was ordered to pick up its duds and go. It made herculian efforts to sugar FRIDAY. OCTOBER 6. 1911. the city officials just as the Sunset has done all over the Pacific Coast in order to get a new lease of life, but the officials were not open to bribery and the company is now down and out. Some day soon the people of Seattle will tire of being robbed by the Sunset Telephone Company, and while it will not be possible to kick it out, owing to the lifetime franchise Corporation Councilman Humphrey made it possible for them to get for nothing, yet the people will vote to put in a municipal system and thereby drive the old company completely out of business, which should be done and done without much further delay. Down in Oregon at the present time the Sunset company is rebelling against paying its just taxes and seeking to get the courts to declare the law unconstitutional, which gives the officers of the law the right to collect taxes as that company rightly owes. ANOTHER DAM BURSTS. While the first reports of the loss of human life at Austin, Pa., where a great dam broke and millions of gallons of water went rushing wildly down a narrow canyon which was thickly settled, were greatly exaggerated, nevertheless a number of persons lost their lives and the property of the valley is almost a total loss. Accidents will happen in the best regulated families, but in future either persons should not be permitted to settle behind great water dams or the building of them should be prevented by law. Whether or not engineers can construct dams to hold such large volumes of water we do not know, but it is a fact that periodically such dams break causing great destruction to human life and property, and the legislatures of the country should enact laws either preventing the construction of such or prevent the building up of towns in the wake of such in case they burst. RAILROAD LABOR TROUBLES. The general strike that prevails all over the system of the Illinois Central and Harriman lines is causing some uneasiness among railroad men as well as among railroad employers, though it is predicted the strikers will eventually fail. Periodically labor and capital make a demonstration against each other apparently more to show to the world how strong each or both really are than for any merit in the case. It seems to us the general government ought to take the bull by the horns and settle the labor troubles of the country, which could be done, and thereby save both labor and capital much effort and money. ITALY AND TURKEY SCRAP. War between Italy and Turkey is now in full blast, and, according to reports, the Italians are getting all the better of the scrap. While the powers of Europe are anxiously watching the war as it proceeds, yet no efforts have been made to put an end to it, and it is predicted by wise ones that, if the war continues a few weeks, the most of the European countries will find themselves more or less involved. The average American has little or no sympathy with either side as it's a matter of indifference to the United States which side occupies the African territory in question. Italy some few years ago attempted to chastise the government of King Menelik, but in one engagement lost 10,000 men and a large supply of munitions of war, and so signal was the blow that the Italian government at once sued for peace. Italy now feels she must lick some one in the African country and so she has pounced upon Turkey. Because she has been spiling for a war it is hoped the Turks will administer a similar dose to her that Menelik did. NEWSPAPER HERO DEAD. Admiral Winfield Scott Schley dropped dead in New York one day this week and his remains have been laid to rest in Arlington. The passing of Schley ends the final chapter of the naval con- Country Press and Comment FRIDAY. OCTOBER 6. 1911. troversy that raged for months between the friends of Schley and Sampson as to which was the real hero of the Santiago unpleasantness. No one seems to have given the men who did the fighting any credit at all for the victory, but all wanted it to either rest on Sampson or Schley. It is barely possible that a hundred different men in the engagement had more to do with the victory than either of them, but be that as it will or may, Schley lost many friends by the brutal way he attacked Admiral Sampson at the time his health was very poor and he did not have sufficient vitality to retort in kind. EDITORIAL PARAGRAPH. "Taft's firm antitrust stand," sounds good for campaign purposes, but will he practice what he preaches? The rich folk of this country may be wicked, but there is one thing certain, the rich folk do not believe it. The Italians are downing the Turks. It is a question whether the smell of the Turks is worse or better than the garlic. Billy Inglis is to lead the Taft escort, which ought to entitle Billy to a cabinet position or some equally remnuerative appointment. Wilfried Laurier's "bowing to the inevitable" is painfully patriotic, but it was only done after the inevitable had knocked him down. It begins to look as though this country is to be divided between Ballinger and Pinchot. What a pity hades could not be substituted. Bogue's civic center is preparing to show its head above the horizon and every good citizen should get ready to swat it with a vengeance. Is the Post-Intelligencer to be a Bone of contention in the coming politics of the state? That question is being asked by the political forecasters. ```markdown ``` Oh yes, my boy, learn the golden rule, but practice getting the money if you expect to have the money,—should be made a part of the Sunday school lesson leaf. Clarence D. Hillman may be guilty of all with which he has been charged, but it looks like Elmer Todd is getting even for some real or fancied grievance in hounding the man. The headquarters of the Washington-Oregon Railway is to be moved to Portland, which will take out of the city President Farrell. If the city can live through it we will be surprised. With the ballot as the big stick the woman voter of this country is pictured swatting the "saloons, white slavery and the roadside hells" hip and thigh. Of course, it's only a pretty picture. "Be of good cheer, California will yet have woman suffrage," predicted Susan B. Anthony some years ago, and it begins to look as if she was a prophet even in her own country. Work on the Lake Union belt line, which the last city council of Seattle made the Northern Pacific a present of, has been begun. It's a good thing and should be pushed along—the work. Matt Mattison has not been forced to go before an insanity commission since he has been in Seattle, but to look at the man and then to hear him talk one wonders how he has kept from it so long. The present hard times may be due to the people only pausing to take their breats, which seems to be the only thing corporate greed has left for them to take and they have not got strength enough to carry it very far. A white girl claims to have married a Japanese believing him to be a merchant, but the chances are she married him because she knew he was a gambler and had seen his flash roll and mistook it for real. Money makes the mare go. The convict who umpired the ball game played between convicts of the Atlanta federal prison may not have been called "robber and thief;" as are the umpires on the outside, and yet it is more than likely that he was not only one, but perhaps both of them. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Recalling judges may be just as fair as recalling any other kind of public officials, but for judges to be recalled every time one of them renders an opinion that does not meet the other fellow's favor, as in every instance where two or more are involved in a lawsuit, seems to us foolhardy, the opinions of the learned editor of the Observer of Sunnyside to the contrary notwithstanding. --- It is suspected that the writer of the excerpt herein is Col. Alden J. Blethen, and for that reason it has been marked exchange instead of being given the credit. It is as follows: "Eternity will last a good while, but he shall need it all to forget some of the things we did in a few months." Did you ever read anything that so completely fits the colonel's cap as the above, and for that reason he must have written it, but to ease his own conscience got it palmed off on, "Exchange." --- "You must live somewhere, why not in the Fairfield country, the land of apples, wheat, glorious climate and sociable neighbors," preaches the Standard of Fairfield. Oh, because, every other community in the state and the Northwest are saying the very same thing, and we get all confused as to which one is telling the truth; if any of them. And then again because clams grow on Puget Sound without having to be irrigated, and the greatest effort one has to put forth to get a meal is to dig the clams and build a fire out of the convenient driftwood to roast them in. * * * Evidently that must have been a newspaper yarn that reported wheat having jumped up eight cents the day after the defeat of reciprocity, as the Colton News-Letter says, "the wheat market is dull, the farmers haven't sold yet, and the circulating medium is scarce. In the meantime the cost of living keeps right on climbing." Here is a complaint being registered from a section where we had been led to believe the wealth of the world is to be found. Hard times seems to be raging everywhere. 'Billie Goodyear, after thirteen years active management of the Commoner of Colfax, has sold the paper and its good will to Charles H. Bass, who proposes to make it even a better paper than it has been in the past, which will be going some. Editor Bass does not propose to change the politics of the paper, but try to make it more progressive than it has been in the past. What chu goin' do, Billie? * * * When the Georgetown News-Gazette says, "This issue of the News-Gazette comes to you with 120 pages, it being, perhaps, the largest weekly newspaper in the state of Washington, which increase in size being made necessary to publish the summons in the Duwamish River Improvement case." Yes, the largest in the west and it is the largest summons we ever saw, and we hope the publishers of the News-Gazette will realize a handsome piece of money for its publication. ```markdown ``` If it be true that Uncle Sam has furnished Canada for the past year with 11,800 farmers every month, who took with them cash and chattels estimated to be worth $200,000,000, as has been published all over the country, then there is method in Canada's madness in rejecting reciprocity. * * * When Lue F. Vernon, the versatile as well as pungent correspondent, took a fall out of the Seattle Times in last week's Washington Standard of Olympia in the following paragraph, he preached a sermon that's worth repeating by every publisher in the state. Here it is: "The Seattle Times boasts that other publishers in Washington State are jealous of it as a newspaper. Name the publisher, please. In most instances, as a rule, the publishers of newspapers in this State are ashamed of it." --- "John C. Lawrence—to be or not to be? The Republicans would like to know," comes from the Independent of Olympia. We do not agree with you in that the Republicans of the state are expecting Mr. Lawrence to so stultify himself as to be a candidate for governor against the man who has kept him in office. We are no particular advocates or admirers of Governor Hay, but we do believe in fair play, and if Mr. Lawrence should enter the gubernatorial contest, he would demonstrate to the Republicans of the state that he is totally devoid of fair play, and we do not believe he is built that way. "It is a fact lynch law recognizes no geographical boundaries," as argues the Monitor-Transcript of Monroe, and it might have added, it does not realize to what depth of moral depravity the whole country is being dragged by its practice. The United States is the most murderous country in all the world and that too in face of the fact that, we take the law in our hands and punish some of the murderers. * * * A reader of the Poulsbo Herald wrote to the editor and said, "Your paper should have more editorial comment. We are making history now and you have a chance to make a lot of noise. I would like to hear more noise from you." That reader has hit the nail on the head and not only the Herald, but other publishers of weekly papers had better profit from that piece of advice. Too many papers are being edited by long distance these days. There is too little hard headed horse sense on the public needs in them, and there is a lack of scientific and general information in them all of which will make it impossible for weekly publications to very much longer hold their own even in remote rural districts. Uneiss there is a general improvement on the part of weekly papers their readers will find it convenient to subscribe for the local daily papers and add to their reading list of papers some of the weekly publications of national fame. Anyone can do it. Most anyone can be an editor. All the editor has got to do is to sit at his desk six days out of the week, four weeks out of the month, and twelve months out of the year, and "edit" such stuff as this: "Mrs. Jones of Cactus Creek let a can opener slip last week and cut herself in the pantry." "A mischevious lad from Piketown threw a stone and struck Mr. Pike in the alley last Tuesday." "John Doe climbed on the roof of his house last week looking for a leak and fell striking himself on the back porch." "While Harold Green was escorting Miss Violet Wise from the church social last Saturday night a savage dog attacked them and bit Mr. Green several times on the public square." "Isaiah Trimmer of Running Creek was playing with a cat Friday, when it scratched him on the veranda." "Mr. Long, while harnessing a broncho last Saturday, was kicked just south of the corn crib." At a Safe Distance.—"That member of Congress says you have voted for him for the last fifteen years." "That's right," replied Farmer oCrntossel. "You must think a lot of him." "Well, I dunno. You see, fifteen years ago I had a couple o' hoss trades with him, an' since then I've allus felt safer with him spendin' so much of his time in Washington."—Washington Star. Answered.—Bishop Goodman was one day addressing a Sunday-school when he said, in a most expressive way: "And now, children, let me tell you a very sad fact. In Africa there are 10,000,000 square miles of territory without a single Sunday-school where little boys and girls can spend their Sundays. Now, what should we all try and save up our money and do?" And the class, as one voice, replied in ecstatic union, "Go to Africa!"—The Watchword. The Seattle Republican will publish your legal notices and give you a square deal. Call Main 305 and talk with us. POLITICAL POT PIE REGINALD H. THOMSON, for the past twenty-two years city engineer of Seattle, is to quit the job to accept a similar position with the port commission of Seattle, recently created by the voters of the city. It is argued by the leading citizens of the city that Mr. Thomson is by odds the ablest engineer in the West, and ranks among the ablest in the whole country and can do the city a great deal better service as engineer of the port than to continue as city engineer, as the city work is so well advanced that in future it will be nothing more than routine, while the building of the port of Seattle requires a man with not only vast knowledge, but of local engineering experience such as Mr. Thomson has acquired by being city engineer. Though Mr. Thomson's selection was bitterly opposed by a few claqueurs of the Bruce Harbin stripe and a few old granny women, yet the citizens as a whole heartily endorse him and feel absolutely safe in entrusting the construction of the port of Seattle into his keeping. It is more than likely that some one now in the engineering department under Mr. Thomson will be named and confirmed as his successor. CHARLES S. PARKER, editor of the Citizen of Spokane, in discussing the gubernatorial outlook in the state says, "Wm. Pitt Trimble is cautiously feeling his way, and it is possible he may be King county's most formidable candidate." It is barely possible, and even probable, though as yet he has made no definite statement as to what he will do. However, should he get into the race he will be a warm one from the very outset, but this he has never said he would do. KENNY BEATON, who for the past seven or more years has been conspicuous in the journalistic arena of Seattle, but who recently took a fall out of the political game which he has given up, starts today for his former home in Ottawa, Canada, where he will settle down and try to be good the balance of his life. Rumor has it that Kenny cleaned up a bunch of money while in the business that would make John D., of Standard Oil fame, feel like tap ping him for a ready cash loan. It is claimed he made his biggest haul while editor-in-chief of the Star. Whether or not there is any real truth in the allegation the writer verily doth not know, but we do know all of a sudden he lost his job and no cause was assigned. OLE HANSON, who has been seriously ill for some weeks past, is able to be out and was presiding at the Disgruntled Club as of yore this week. He vigorously denies being the Ole Hanson that escaped from Steilacoom and committed suicide in the suburbs of Tacoma a few days thereafter, but his denials have not been corroborated and the most of those who read of the incident are inclined to doubt what he has to say as to this allegation. J. M. LAYHUE, assistant superintendent of public instruction to Superintendent Dewey, has announced his candidacy for the superintendency, and he hopes to make a more effective latter day campaign than he did some twelve years ago under the old political order of things. Prof. AL POT PIE Layhue was twice elected superintendent of King County and on retiring from that position became ambitious to be state superintendent. He therefore laid his plans for the state convention that met at Tacoma to nominate him, but the King county delegation elected a steering committee with John H. McGraw at its head, and that committee saw fit to give the nomination of every place to outside counties with the view of getting support for King county's choice for United States senator, and instead of Layhue being nominated as he had been assured, Prof. Bryan of Aberdeen was nominated. On the convention floor Layhue was outspoken and perhaps even abusive at the treatment he had received, and he could hardly be blamed, and he called upon [Image of a man with a white beard and glasses, wearing a dark suit and a white shirt with a black tie. The background is black with no other details.] REGINALD H. THOMSON his friends to bolt the caucus nominee and vote for him. Some of them really did, but those of his tried workers who did not he branded as traitors and for years and even until this day only speaks to them when he cannot help himself. Among that number was the editor of The Seattle Republican, and he always felt that Layhue was far more selfish than fair and he always thought the time would come when he would get an opportunity to even up old scores, and it seems to have come sooner than he had expected, and he does not predict that Prof. Layhue will carry King county with a sweep and a roar. JACK STRINGER and three other Hodge deputy sheriffs are candidates for the nomination of sheriff, and it seems to the piemaker that there is a splendid opportunity for some good man to get in and win the nomination hands down. AL RUTHERFORD, county commissioner, says he will never be a candidate for commissioner again, which must mean that Al has been decided upon by the Dan Abrahams bunch to run FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1911. for sheriff. For quite a while it was a debate whether Rutherford or Abrahams would run and they went out to feel the public pulse and it must be that Al has been decided as being the stronger of the two. Well, it seems to the Pie-maker that Rutherford will have a hard time being elected sheriff in the face of the extravagant record he has made as county commissioner. MATHEW DOW, one of Seattle's foremost builders and contractors, and who frequently dabbled into politics, has for the past year been getting so much work in British Columbia that he is seriously considering moving to Vancouver and taking out naturalization papers. "If I should decide to do so," said he one day this week, "I would have no serious cause for getting homesick as there are thousands of citizens of the United States all over that country. The whole country seems to be on one of the most substantial booms that I have ever witnessed." OTTO A. CASE, who desires to be the next governor of the state of Washington, is so full of hot air that his mouth acts as the escape valve to the storage steam chest in his stomach. Case for governor and Clayson for secretary of state, and the Republicans would have a state ticket of which even inmates of Steilacoom and Medical Lake could point with pride to. H. A. NEIS, a former Seattle policeman, who was arrested while he was on duty, charged with stealing a necklace from a woman on whom he had called, may not be guilty as declares both himself and his former police associates in the department, but the sympathies of the public are with the jury that found him guilty. It seems when the change came those policemen given to grafting took to down-right stealing, when it was no longer possible to graft. MARC KLAW, the head of the new playhouse of Seattle, the Metropolitan, may have been the center of a good many pleasant gatherings in his theatrical career, but in all his life it is here ventured he never was in one with more heart-felt enthusiasm than the opening night of the new playhouse. Klaw and Court, our own John, have been in a great theatrical war for the past two years and the Metropolitan is a result of that war. CHARLES PRYOR, a former Seattle policeman, was found guilty last Tuesday of criminally assaulting an unsophisticated Norwegian girl whose acquaintance he made by offering to show her some place which she was trying to find. Pryor's conviction makes the fourth police officer of Seattle that has been found guilty of having committed a felony while on duty, which makes the average citizen feel as if the city would be just about as well off without any police protection as with hundreds of bluecoats employed by the taxpayers at an awful drain on their exchequer. Speaking about the conviction of the policemen made an ex-police officer fall into a remniscent mood one day this week and he said, "If the general public only knew half of the criminal acts committed by the police officers while in the performance of their duties I feel safe in saying that there would be a general uprising and half of the officers of the law would be lynched. The police officer, whether you have a wide open or a closed town, that does not make three and four times more than his FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1911. Peay Gee anise ee ee ee force for the protection of the other members, and sooner or later he is.” ae H. S, FRYE, a well known Seattle attorney, was found guilty some months ago by a jury of his peers for having interfered with an officer in the performance of his duty. One day this week one of the superior court judges granted Mr. Frye a new trial on the grounds that, the evidence produced at the trial did not warrant a conviction. We have no desire to see Mr. Frye sent to prison for the crime, as what he did was done in the heat of a political campaign, but twelve hard-headed business men found him guilty after listening to the evidence, and they and not the presiding judge had the say as to the guilt or innocence of the accused, and when once they decided no judge should have the right to get the verdict aside on any such pretext. If it was subsequently found that he was convicted on perjured testimony, then a judge would be justified in setting the verdict aside, but never on the insufficiency of the testimony. It is just such Cases as the above that has fathered the movement for the recall of judges that must soon- er or later come, despite the evil effects it may have on the judiciary. The respective legislative bodies of the country have passed laws, but those with money who thought those laws meant they had to observe the golden rule have been ablé by the liberal use of money to have the judges, both federal and state, declare those laws anconstitu- tional until at this time it’s the courts of the Jands and not the people nor their elective rep- resentatives that run the government. Every law that is passed by a legislative body, with the view of making corporations do the right and square thing is taken into court by the corpora- tions, and it’s the rarest instance that they are not able to knock the law out and-all because the most of the judges are under the. influence of those rich corporations. Howevér much we may be constitutionally opposed to the recall of judges, it begins.to look as if it was the.only way out of an ugly mess. . 8 @ ere BRUCE HARBIN, he of unsavory political fame, demands of the members of the port commission that the man he advocates for engineer be ap- pointed, “because I represent the people.” De- spite the fact that Bruce simply tore his shirt for the appointment of George F. Cotterill dollars to doughnuts, Cotterill would not be seen as- sociating with him in public. * ¢ « BOB BRIDGES, who quit a $300 per month job with the Duwamish Improvement District to be elected one of the port commissioners, which is without salary, seems after all to have had method in his madness, as it is now reported the commissioners will spend in the neighborhood of six million dollars in the improvement of the Seattle harbor. If in the handling of all that money and an engineer of his chosing, Bob did not get his, then his right hand would have for- gotten its cunning and he would not be holding up his record of the past. Bob, it will be re- membered, was elected state land commissioner in. 1896, and when he took office he hardly had money enough to pay his way to Olympia, but when he retired he had sufficient tide lands in his possession to now easily put him in the mil- Hionaire class, We do-not say he did not get his tide lands on the square and in the open, but we do say he would never have gotten them if he had not have been state land commissioner. * ce © JUDGE THOMAS BURKE and John Lockwood Wilson have buried the hatchet and formed a political combine, which has for its object the RE Na Po ae eR mae THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Senator Wilson was hooked up with Judge Burke he could not be elected governor of the state.if he and Judge Burke put $100,000 in the campaign and had the support of both of the big papers in Seattle. Judge Burke is supposed to be-hooked up with the “interests” of the United ‘States, and it is believed he would go to Washington to rep- resent them in the coming struggle between the “interests, and the people for that reason we think he will die without having his senatorial ambition realized. CONGRESSIONAL POSSIBILITIES. Concerning the congressional timber in this dis- trict, the Vancouver Columbian has given the list as follows: H. B. Dewey, state superintendent of public in- struction, has a covetous eye on a seat in con- gress. Of course, Stanton Warburton will expect to be re-elected, and there is Jim McNeeley who would do honor to the place, and Jimmy Davis would be one of those who does things if sent to congress,—all these are of Pierce county, and all want to be congressmen. But, what of the country? Almost: forgot all about Charley Clay pool and Doe Carlyon of Olympia, and the peer- less A. ©. Little of Raymond. But these are not all by any means. There’s Harry Hewitt and Alex Polson, of Hoquiam, and Ed Finch, of Aber- deen—“ary one of which” would fill the bill to perfection, Doc, Beach, of Mason county, thinks he is really the right one to “get” ‘Warburton’s shoes, and when Doc thinks a thing he knows he’s right. Coming on down the line we meet good Senator Fishback, in Lewis county, and Ross and Stewart in Cowlitz, all good congressional timber. And while talking on the subject of congressmen there is positively no thought of overlooking Daddy Meigler of Wahkiakum, or our good brother Presby, of Klickitat. These are a few of the many congressional possibilities in the second district, outside of Clarke county. THE UPRISING OF THE GOVERNORS, “ Chlverary LIBCEL.) » ° mgibe oe eh The critics of our Federal courts have now been joined by the Governors of nearly half the States, a situation that is probably unprecedented in our history and that may result in more power for the Governors, or more for the courts, as one or the other emerges victorious. When the House of Governors, by a vote of 24 to 1, appointed a committee to represent it in the Minnesota rate case now pending before the United States Su- preme Court and to file briefs with that court as a protest against Justice Sanborn’s decision, the press of the country was at first startled by the unusual nature of this move. It meant, in effect, the carrying before the Supreme Court of a pro- test in the name of the States against Federal usurpation of State powers, and while the issue of “State’s rights” can claim nothing of novelty, this particular method of putting it before the country was apparently as unexpected as it is umprece- dented. ‘Whether this action impresses the Su- preme Court or not,” ironically remarks the New York Tribune (Rep.), “it will certainly impress the public with the ease with which a congress of Governors loses its head.” “Have our friends the Governors any reason to suspect that the Justices are about to violate their oath and betray their trust?” asks The World (Dem.), of the same city, To the Washington Post (Ind.), the attitude of the Governors seems “impudent” and worthy to be “laughed out of court,” and the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle (Rep.), deplores their “ill- advised attack on the Federal courts.” And the Salt Lake Herald-Republican (Rep.) can see in the whole matter nothing but the useless re- opening of a question settled once for all by the Civil War. Says the Utah paper: ~ “When the conference of Governors of the vari- ous States of the Union criticized Judge Sanborn of the United States Circuit Court for his de- cision in favor of the railroads in the Minnesota rate case, it opened a question which was settled half a century ago by the expenditure of much blood and treasure—the question of whether the rights of the States or of the Federal Government should be paramount.” The whole proceeding, thinks the Chicago Inter- Ocean (Rep.), “illustrates the muddle into which insurgency in Republican States and Bryan radicalism in Democratic States is getting 1tseil. — And it.goes_on to explain—. . es “The whole agitation of radicalism, insurgency, and Socialism for the past ten years has been for just what these -Governérs are ‘protesting against —for enlargement of governmental power at Washington. Now that the instantaneous uplifters are getting what they asked, for—what they in- sisted the ‘people’ must have or perish—they do not like it at all. They suddenly discover what every man of sense saw all the time, that the necessary price of more government at Washing- ton is less government in the States.” A great many papers, on the other hand, de- clare that the Governors acted with perfect pro: priety, and that any movement to delimit the twi- light zone between Federal and State jurisdiction over the railroads should be welcomed by the public, And in a formal statement Governors Harmon (Dem.) and Hadley (Rep.)—who with Governor Aldrich (Rep.) make up the committee— refer to an “apparent misunderstanding by some” of the purpose of the committee, and explain that they “expect to deal only with the legal side of the controversy.” In this statement they go on to say: “Byvery State in the Union is equally and vitally interested in the decision of this question, as the right of each State to regulate its own interna tional commerce would be destroyed by an adverse decision. We expect to ascertain as to what cases will first be considered by the Supreme Court in which this question will be decided, and if it is deemed advisable we will ask leave to present to the court a brief and argument in support of the right of the States to regulate commerce whol- ly within their borders.” The twenty-four States whose governors.indorsed the appointment and purpose of this committee are; Alabama, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New. Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. cee. fe Cartrie— “She can’t afford to buy a whole cemetery.”—-Puck.

A marked feature of "The Traveling Salesman," James Forbes' latest comedy, which will be presented at the Seattle Theatre next week, starting with the matinee Sunday, is the large number of laughable slang expressions, entirely new to those who find much to interest them in the works of the celebrated slang authors of the day. Mr. Forbes is a creator of risible expressions; he sprang into prominence by reason of "The Chorus Lady," but he has more than duplicated his first success in "The Traveling Salesman." Lee Williard, in his special engagement at the Alhambra next week, will offer a revival of the sterling old favorite, "My Partner." This is a California mining play with a story that is rich in heart interest and that moves along with the rapidity of action and thrill necessary to a true picture of the great out-of-door country. Mr. Willard will play the role of Joe Saunders, around whose loyalty to his partner, Ned Singleton, and the complication resulting from their falling in love with the same winsome girl the play is built. "My Partner" is a comedy drama and its immense success is due to the keen interest of its story, with its nicely balanced divisions of dramatic western action and hilarious comedy. The play will run at the Alhambra all week, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 6. 1911. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for King County. Notice and Summons. L. H.
