In speaking of the death of a prominent citizen the P.-I. says, "he died in his bed." Is that an unusual place out west for one to die, Mr. Editor? It must be taxing Lucifer's hosts almost beyond endurance to manufacture enough turbans for the hatless Turks arriving every day in boat loads. Washington apples are said to be very popular in other sections of the country. They, to say the least. are very edible in Washington. That Los Angeles barber shop that gives a meal with a shave must serve blood pudding for dessert, owing to the number of customers bled therein. Frenchmen have discovered that bananas make fine whiskey, which has both the taste and the flavor that attracts. Why not add a drop of bourgamont to the concoction and then it would likewise have the odor. If Charley was no better Pryor to his coming to Seattle and going on the police force, than he has been since arriving, then he has been an awfully "bad mans" during his life. Aviating may not be pre-arranged for suiciding, but it is the next thing to it, as the aviator is almost as certain of death as the man with a gun and a bottle of carbolic acid. President Taft's dining with his former secretary of the interior in Seattle did not make him very many votes in the state of Washington, but votes are not all even a politician is looking for. Andy Carnegie and Mrs. Russell Sage, both of whom advertised, they meant to die poor, lead in the New York tax list of available cash, which amount to $10,000,000 each. To die poor must be a harder job than they had anticipated. It has been a good many years since a public reception of a political nature in Seattle was pulled off, that the committee of vice-president was lily white, but the one that received President Taft last Monday "sho wus." Magazine stories in order to prove readable must get busy from the first line almost through the entire article. The people seem to be so constituted these days as to want to read those things that give them the greatest amount of real excitement. 0 SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, OCT. 13, 1911. THE STATE IN MOURNING. Harry Fairchild's death will prove a sad blow to the administrative affairs of the state of Washington as he was one of the most profound expounders of railroad rates in the whole country. He was a student of affairs and when he went on the railroad commission he gave up all private business and devoted himself exclusively to that work, and the advancement he made in it was most remarkable. It is said on good authority, his knowledge of railroad affairs was so profound, that he was seriously thought of by the President for the United States railroad commission. While on the whole he was far from being a popular personage among the rank and file, yet when you got acquainted with him, though you may have in the past opposed him, you would soon come to the conclusion that, he was a conscientious worker and not only conscientious, but an effective worker and always decided things coming before him as he saw them and that too without regard to who was helped or hurt by his decision. TAFT TOOK THE TOWN. President Taft's visit to Seattle was the signal for a great turn-out among the leading business men of the community, and while there did not seem to be the same enthusiastic turn-out as greeted President Roosevelt. yet it was a turn-out just the same. The President is a pleasing personage to look upon and his speeches in the west have been more or less from the shoulder, and if he makes the same kind of speeches in the east as he has in the west, we doubt very much if he will get the support of the millionaires' clubs. In Seattle he was the host of Representative Humphrey at a breakfast party and the guest of former Secretary Ballinger at a luncheon, both of which was a political mistake as neither of them can strengthen his cause in the Northwest. Mr. Ballinger was pronounced guilty by his Seattle acquaintances from the very outset of the charges preferred against him and Humphrey was beaten to a frazzle in his fight for re-election last fall in Seattle. It was a mistake to run the President up against those political has-beens. THE COLORED VOTER SNUBBED. Speaking about the Taft reception in Seattle, though the meeting at the Armory Hall was purely political, yet the committee of arrangements saw fit to snub the colored voters of the state by not inviting one of their number to act as vice-president of the their number to act as vice-chairman of the meeting. Whether the committee felt none of them was able to pay the three-dollar fee that went with the vice-chairman invitation or did so because they did not consider them worthy of participating in a meeting for the ```markdown ``` VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 32. president, the writer verily doth not know, but he does know that at every other such meeting in Seattle the colored voter was recognized by inviting one of their number to occupy a seat on the platform. There was a growing disposition on the part of the colored voters of the state to oppose the election of William Howard Taft and we would not be surprised, if the affront offered them on the occasion of the President's visit to Seattle, will not be instrumental in the national Republican ticket led by Taft losing every colored vote in the state, which, to say the least, amounts to something like 8,000. DID DILLING PREVARICATE? When Mayor Dilling makes the statement that the keep of the city automobiles only cost the city $1,400 and never to exceed $1,-600 per month he has either been grossly imposed upon by some one at the city hall or he himself is trying to impose on the general public. There is not a prominent family in Seattle whose one automobile does not cost at least $150 per month and at the same rate. if the city had but 15 automobiles, their keep would be $1,500 per month, but the city has a great many more than that and everybody knows that it costs more to care for a city automobile than a private person. While we are not prepared to give in dollars and cents the amount it costs the city each month for automobile keep, yet we do know it costs twice, three times and even more than the figure given by Mayor Dilling. Summing it all, the city could get along without it costing her anything for automobile care except for those in the fire department because they are not needed and the city could get along as well without them as with them. STRAWBERRY CROP FAILURE FAILURE. It is declared by those who say they know the facts that, though the farmers of Vashon Island shipped many carloads of strawberries from the island, yet they actually came out in debt, when the cost was counted up, which reminds us of the story Ben Butler told of the Massachusetts farmer that bought a hog and paid eight dollars for it. He kept it for a year, in the meantime feeding it ten dollars' worth of corn, and then sold it at the end of a year for twelve dollars, an actual loss of six dollars. When asked where did he get off in the transaction, the farmer replied, "Why. man, I owned the hog for a whole year." Who is responsible for this peculiar condition in which the strawberry growers find themselves is more than the writer is able to fathom, but, if they continue in that way, they will be like the school teacher's cat. "Johnny," said the Ts ne ke enema Prosecuting Attorney John F. Murphy of King county has caused the trial of Alden J. Blethen and others indicted in connection with the graft, alleged to be common to the Gill administration of Seattle, to be set for October 23rd, and he declares he proposes to -prosecute even the all-powerful Blethen with the same vigor and hope of conviction as he did the poor devils that corrupted voters by paying them to register and vote contrary to law. The publie, since the P.-I. and the ‘ea r = 3 y y y FREDERICK KARL STRUVE. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN “‘Tdle capital both in the Kast and in Europe is anxi- ous to seek investment in the Northwest, but it is hesi- tating on account of the unsettled conditions that seem to prevail all over the United States,’’ said Frederick Karl Struve one day this week, who recently returned from an extended visit to Europe and the eastern section of this country. ‘‘There is no doubt in the minds of the men with the money,’’ he continued. ‘‘but that Taft is to an extent carrying out the policy of Theodore Roose- velt and while he may not be carrying it out as strenuously as Roosevelt would have. still he is quietly doing it, and investments, from the standpoint of the man with the money, is not considered safe. The railroads are being attacked by the administration and other big concerns are likewise being hampered, and so long as that state of affairs continues, just so long will the capitalist refrain from putting out his money, and you will see still harder times all over this country unless there is a let up.’ Mr. Struve is one of the heavy real estate investors of Seattle, and represents a great many foreign investors in Seattle dirt and especially of Germany, and he comes as near knowing the true feeling of those persons as any other man in the country. He is one of the foremost business men of the city, being a heavy stockholder in one or two of the leading banks and is the son-in-law of Jacob Furth, who leads all the rest in Seattle investments. He is a native son and has grown up with the state. having seen it transformed from a howling wilderness to one of the most progressive commonwealths in the whole country. H. A.

How long will it take it to crawl out of the well?’’’ The lad worked away until a late hour at night and every time getting his cat deeper in the well until he finally gave it up and went to bed. ‘‘Did you get that example, Johnny,’’ sternly inquired the teacher the next day. ‘‘No, sir,’’ shyly ans- wered the lad, ‘‘but I tell you, teacher, if 1 could only have stayed awake a little longer T would have had the eat in hell in spite of his efforts to crawl out.’’ M’NAMARA FACING A JURY. The state of California has decided to try James B. McNamara first. whose trial has already begun and the first venire of jury- men has been exhausted. The prosecution seems to base its claim of guilt on the the- ory that, the man committed the act even if he did not. On the other hand the defense is proceeding on the theory that he is in- nocent though he actually did blow up the Times building and likewise commit other as equally heinous crimes. If the prosecu- tion and the defense are correctly quoted or interpreted herein then the trial will prove a travesty on justice, and that too regardless of which way it goes. Even the friends and associates of the accused man should refuse to reach any conclusions in the case until they learn whether or not there is any evi- dence against him that is not of a perjured CAPITAL IS NOT SATISFIED. nature. This thing of, ‘‘‘we horse thieves must hang together or we will hang alone,’’ may be all right from the standpoint of a horsethief on trial for his life, but both sides in this legal battle represent the true citi- zenship of the country, and if the trial de- velops into a wrangel between capital and organized labor, then it would be a thousand times better, if the presiding judge would entertain a motion for the dismissal of the charges against the McNamara brothers. In every other civilized country the courts of the United States are looked upon more in the light of kangaroo courts and judicial farce comedies than the great government balance wheels as are courts looked upon in other countries. If those men are guilty they themselves and not organized labor are guilty. The McNamaras are on trial and not organized labor and Gen. Otis and his as- sociates’ fight with labor should be lost sight of by both the prosecution and the defense. BLETHEN?S TRIAL THIS MONTH. Times seem to have kissed and made up, is watching..with abated breath to see if that journalistic truce is going to have any. effect on the Blethen trial, for, it is argued on the streets, that it begins to look asif the drop- ping of the prosecution is a part of the gen- gramme. If Blethen should escape prosecu- tion and the people got it into their heads undue influence had been brought to bear on Mr. Murphy to drop the cases even though both of the great daily papers supported him for, re-election he, in the opinion of The Se- attle Republican, would never be able to sueceed- himself. But the friends of Mr. Murphy have no fear in that direction and do not’ hesitate to declare, he will prosecute Blethen as vigorously, with both of the pa- pers demanding that he lay down, as if the P.-I. was in the same attitude as it was when the indictments were first returned against Blethen.

Not always, especially if there is another cynic in the neighborhood. "It is an axiom that when the farmers of the country are prosperous the whole country is prosperous," comments the P.-I. From the amount of complaining that is heard among the farmers at present, despite the alleged big wheat crops and the high prices on account of the defeat of reciprocity. the country is in hard lines though the farmers are reported by the newspapers as being unusually prosperous. "Pacific county is to have no local option election in December and the failure is due directly to the alleged adherents of the antisaloon league," says the Chinook Observer, and Editor Hazeltine of the South Bend Journal, acted as high priest at its funeral. King county, too, may not hold a local option election in December on account of a legal technicality, but every time such elections are put off by the liquor advocates, it but intensifies the anti-saloon feeling and another step is taken toward state wide prohibition. Let the people decide for themselves what they want and that, too, without invoking the aid of the courts to tell them what they want, and all will be well, whichever way it goes. Despite the fact that Vashon Island is the greatest strawberry growing section of the state of Washington and that land for strawberry raising is selling as high as $1,000 per acre, yet, according to the Ranch, published at Kent, the farmers sustained an actual loss on the strawberry crop this year in dealing with the commission men. It begins to look that if strawberry raising is to be made profitable the fruit will have to be manufactured into jams, jellies and syrups and sold to the wholesale grocers instead of marketed in crates. The Grays Harbor News is of the opinion that, there is a better tone in business circles throughout the country, and it argues that, that tone will be improved as soon as the crops are harvested. Now it seems to us that this is another case of the little boy going through the "graveyard" after nightfall, and whistling to keep his courage up. Business for the trusts and the corporate kings is very much better, but for the average middle man it is even worse now than ten months ago, and that is saying a good deal. In speaking about the late state fair at North Yakima, the Herald of that city says: "It was a greater and a better fair than ever before, was the verdict of the visitors and this is confirmed from all the expert sources where comment is obtainable." It must have been a great fair as the people seem well pleased with it, but how they will feel when a great big deficit looms up at the legislature remains to be seen. Seattle and Tacoma had better look well to their laurels or Kelso will soon be giving both of them a merry old chase, if the Journal of Kelso can be relied upon. In its last issue it said: "Building operations continue. A new brick building will soon be begun and great commercial activity in other THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN lines is in store for Kelso in the near future," and thus does the building up of cities go merrily on whether the farming community does or does not keep pace with the cities. A novel plan, according to the Record of Odessa, has been inaugurated by the real estate men of Spokane to make the city grow. A seeing Spokane crusade has been instituted and the citizens are shown the city by the real estate men that they too may help to boost the city and make it possible of course for the real estate men to make money. If a hundredth part as much energy and money was spent in building up the rural districts as the towns then the towns would build up of their own accord and the whole country would soon be unavoidably prosperous. The efforts of the real estate men are purely selfish as they do what they do in the way of building up the town to work it up to a boom state that they can sell more real estate. According to the Sun of Sunnyside two new publications have been started in North Yakima within the past month, the rehabilitation of the Forum by J. D. Jorey, which was formerly published in Sunnyside, being one of the two. Mr. Jorey was a Populist member of the legislature of 1897, but subsequently identified himself with the Socialist party, for the success of which party he has labored for many years. That exchange which the Oracle of Orting says has discovered that, "a poor girl has to be awfully good looking to be pretty and that a rich girl has to be awfully homely to be nigly," to which it adds, "a poor man has to be awfully smart to be intelligent, and a rich man almost a block-head to be ignorant," is pure pessimism of the deepest dye. A really pretty girl in a calico gown is as handsome to the average man as the one in silken robes bedecked with jewels. The rich girl with a homely face overcomes the imperfections of nature with the cunning devices of man, hence a really homely girl appears as a handsome one, but she comes in the class of the girl that made up to catch a beau, who, after she had married and took off her false bust, her false calves, her false hips, her false hair, took out her false teeth and rubbed the paint and powder off her face and presented herself for retirement, the fellow beheld her for a moment and exclaimed, "there is nothing doing." An item is going the rounds of the press to the effect that, the state of Washington produced 860 carloads of strawberries this year, worth nearly a million dollars, which was a great harvest for the producers, providing they got it, but if the Ranch, as may be seen in another column hereof, is authority for the statement that, the farmers who produced those berries came out in debt, the profit all going to the commission men, which, if true, the farmer is in a worse condition than if he had not raised a single berry for the market. The music of the snore from a sleeping person, as thinks the Spokesman, is not pleasant to hear, but to our mind the music of the snore is awfully soothing, especially to the one that is doing the snoring. The cigarette chap, who calls his father "the old man" and his mother "the old lady," many of which the Echo of Cle Elum claims are to be found in that city, is to be found in every other city in the United States, and especially in places where two-thirds of the business houses of the city are open saloons, where games run day and night and even on Sunday though, perhaps, behind closed doors. Hoquiam, according to the News, is waging a war of extermination against the Chinese of that section. If help is as hard to get in that section of the state as it is in Seattle then it seems to us that instead of driving the Chinese out more should be imported. The families of Seattle could find employment for thousands of Chinese cooks and household helpers at reasonable wages, if such could be had. It is simply foolish to argue that such Chinese help would knock white help out of employment for the work is now being done by the family, owing to the fact that utterly it is impossible to get any kind of help, and when you manage to get one he or she demands fabulous wages for darn poor work. The editor of the Ilwaeco Tribune is desirous of supporting John G. Lewis for governor, and the Raymond Herald adds. "you could not support a better man." Lewis may be a good man all right, but he has no more show of being governor than Stanton Waburton, and God knows that is not saying very much. 'Dick Hutchinson of Spokane, who objects strenuously to being called 'Slippery Dick,' wants to be a candidate for lieutenant governor,' says the Davenport Tribune. Well, if Dick decides to get into the race he will put up one of the best fights you ever heard of. Dick is dead opposed to Governor Hay and he will make an anti-Hay campaign. Now let Dick hook up with some strong gubernatorial candidate and you will see a fight that you read about next year. The Lincoln County Times deplores the publishing of the criminal slush so common to the daily papers of the country and thinks something should be done to prevent the young folk of the country having to read it, to which we agree and since it would be wrong to destroy the plants of the daily papers let's kill the editors. "The Waddah Club still lives," says the Auburn Republican, and that too despite the fact Frank P. Goss tried to scuttle it. Some things thrive by the opposition they make. "The man who never makes mistakes misses a good many chances to learn something," says the Enumclaw Herald. To make a mistake is to do something that you know you should not, and we do not see how you could learn anything from a mistake, which through carelessness you failed to do. If you do not know how to do a thing and make an effort to do it, and find that you have done it wrong, then you can profit by experience, but such a failure was not a mistake, because you did not know how to do it, when you undertook it. One profits from honest efforts, but never from mistakes. "A Negro in Des Moines fell seven stories and escaped with few bruises. He must have landed on his head," says the Vancouver Spokesman. May, perhaps, he landed on the ground instead of his head. Next. POLITICAL POT PIE 4 supreme court of the state of Washington, who wrote the de- cision of the court declaring the Employers’ Liability Act consti- tutional, is receiving a flood of praise from the state press for the able manner he handled the ease. Judge Fullerton has de- veloped into one of the most dis- tinguished jurists the Northwest has ever produced and he has the confidence of the people of the state as few, if any, other supreme judge of the state has ever before enjoyed. If at this time Judge Fullerton was not constitutional- ly barred from being a candidate for governor and should he an- nounce his candidacy he would sweep the state against all other entries, Governor Hay to the con- trary notwithstanding. The peo- ple.are looking for a Moses to run for governor, and in case they do not find one in the Republican party there is grave danger of them trying to find one among the Democrats after the primary election will have named candi- dates. HOWARD D. TAYLOR, late speaker of the, house. of repre- sentatives of the state of Wash- ington. who resides... at,. Eagle Gorge, was a Seattle. visitor, this week, and when seen frankly dis- eussed the Republican guberna- torial ‘situation “in this’ ‘state. “No, I have never officially an- nouneed niy ¢andidacy for gov- ernor atid may’ not, but I am against ‘Hay. Whether I am a candidate or’ not remains to be seen, but unless King county can get together on some one she will not’ stand a ghost of a show to win. Case and Hodge have no more chance than new-born ba.- bies. While Mr, Trimble has made no official announcement of his candidacy, yet he is considered to be in a receptive mood, but, in my opinion, he has too much money to make a successful can. didate. The voters of the state seem to be in a destructive rather than constructive mood just now. hence it is hard to say who will win. I am for any King county man on whom the Hay opposition ean unite.’’- JOHN L. WILSON and Alden J. Blethen occupied the same automobile in the Taft parade, but they. were careful to have a peaceable man sitting between them. nee SAM PERKINS: of Tacoma seems to .be the most wonderful lias ever produced. Seattle never “hutt-insky”” that the Northwest THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN has a public demonstration, but what Sam is on hand and always manages to edge himself in the front row. Sam butted in on Mark Hanna in the same old way. BOB HODGE made another grandstand play to ‘the superior court judges for more deputies, but is wagging along with the same number as he had before making his grandstand play. Hodge and his deputies with the aid of the bailiffs can handle the prisoners very well and thereby save the taxpayers thousands of dollars every year, and it should be done. STEWART SMITH and A. U. Tatro, state public accountants, seem to be persona non grata with the officials of King county. and all because they recommended the sealing down of the 1912 budget for the county. Everybody that opposes the court house graft is personally objectional to those in- terested in the graft and the most of the officials seem to be. S. A. WOODS, who has been deputy in the office of county elerk for the past seven years, has announced his candidacy . for county clerk and is making a still hunt in. that direction. Mr Woods stands: high as a. public official and is: being enthusiastic. ally backed by.anumber of well known citizens of the community. ALDEN J. BLETHEN, editor- in chief of the Seattle Daily Times, seems inclined to support President Taft for renomination and election. If the friends and admirers of Taft have and regard admirers of Taft have any regard better do something to insult the colonel that will make him oppose the President for, if he supports him, Taft is certain of being whipped to a frazzle. Colonel Blethen is a dead jonah and even President Taft will find it out if he (Blethen) supports him. JOHN McREAVEY, former JOHN McREAVEY, former state senator from Mason and Kit- sap counties, and who has been a business man of Mason county for the past forty odd years, has moved to Seattle and gone into the. wholesale cigar business. ‘When seen one day this week he said, ‘‘Mason county ‘has’ been voted dry and it being a logging community the men employed as loggers get their money and leave for points in other counties, where they can spend their money for booze and the general merchandise business is as dead as was Hector after he had been dragged three times round the walls of ‘Troy lashed to the chariot of Achiles.’’ Mr. MeReavey looks to be only in middle life, when in fact he is seventy-two years of age, but as active in business circles as if he yee ea? eee La Sere ey ey ae Te A. 8. RUTH, formerly state senator from Thurston county, has succeeded in defeating the equal suffrage for women in the state of California, or at least. to hear him talk, he thinks he did. Evidently the voters of California do not know Ruth as well as the voters of the state of Washing- ton, or they would have paid no attention to his prattle against the women whose shoes he is too foul mouth to unbuckle. SCOTT CALHOUN, for the past eight years corporation counsel for Seattle, has been offered’ the position of attorney for the Se- attle port commission, and’ has about decided to accept the same. In deciding to not again stand for the election of corporation counsel for Seattle Mr. Calheun opens up a new field for action for. the rising young attorney, who thinks all the city of Seattle needs.in order to‘become the great city of the world is his legal abil- ity to direct its proceedings. ‘It has been thought all along that Mr. Calhoun would be a candidate for‘ representative to congress from the first district of Wash- ington: to sueceed Will E. Hum- phrey; whom the people have de- cided to retire, but if he accepts the position he has been offered he will hardly do so. DR. PONTIUS must be prepar- ing to have another marriage ceremony performed as he was re- ported as being in a scrap at the Rathskeller last Saturday night and accompanied by a female. WILL E. HUMPHREY, who was overwhelmingly beaten in King county at the — last election, presided at the Taft meeting Monday evening. Will Humphrey is a dead one around the President’s neck so far as Se- attle is concerned and the same ean be said of Dick Ballinger and Sam Piles. LINCOLN DAVIS, Hyee Tvee of the Wadah Club, which recent- ly plunged into partisan polities head and ears, is said to be a can- didate for lieutenant governor, and will be backed by the organ- ization, which is said to be ex- ceedingly strong. In Tacoma local politics Senator Davis was aa FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1911. more or less successful. but in state polities he is an unknown quantity, save as a striker for Levi Ankeney and as an anti-pro- hibition worker, hence his eandi- dacy is being watched with more or less interest by a great many politicians just now. And again a great many persons are really wondering if the organization will cut any figure in state or county politics. Its first inning at the bat was in the election of port commissioners for Seattle and in that it was struck out almost be- fore it got to the bat. GEORGE W. H. DAVIS, secre- tary of the Brewers’ Association, plans to put up a manly fight to prevent the calling of a local elec- tion for King county this year and to that end he has instructed his attorneys to fight the proposi- tion through the courts, which, if done, will prevent it from being held this year, though it might be pulled off early in next year. JAMES W. MORRISON, the high grade saloon keeper, who is likewise a versatile writer, is con- tributing some splendid ‘articles to the Royal Arch paper in de- fense of the law-abiding saloon keeper, which might change some votes if put in some paper more generally read. a JACOB FURTH, who many years ago had a political itehing. hé desiring to go to the United States sénate, ‘but Who after ‘see- ing it was next to impossible, gave up the idea, but who has al- ways more or less mixed in’ ‘tity, county and state politics, has re- turned ‘from a business trip to the east. whither he has been for the past two months. He was accom. panied by his wife. Mr. Furth, though well up in years, is’ still very active in business circles and stands high among the leading men of the state. Discussing the coming judiciary fight in King county a gentleman, who has had a personal talk with all of the superior court judges, was heard to remark one day this week, ‘‘Every member on. the bench at present will be a candi- date to succeed himself next year. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN earnestly solicits your legal pub- lications and will give you as good or better rates than any other paper. Office phone, Main 305; home ’phone, Hast 140. Where there’s a will there's a fighting chance for the lawyers. “‘We never see the target a man aims at in life; we see only the target he hits.” Anyway, you never see a man wearing his diamond collar button at the back of his neck. And it sometimes happens that when a man puts his best foot forward he gets his leg pulled. The People’s Forum himself, and it was my intention’ to offer a few remarks upon the subject last week, but it is better that the matter has been deferred. I regret that the senator’s declaration was not delayed a few weeks, In fact, the sena- tor’s declaration should never have been de- elared; he should never have said that he was opposed to the initiative, referendum and recall; he should not have declared that these great forward movements in favor of reform are symptoms of hysteria. I do not recall that the senator included the direct primary when he declared himself, but if he failed to do so, it no doubt was an uninten- tional omission. California, led by that grand, noble man. Gov. Hiram Johnson, last Tuesday by an overwhelming vote adopted the initiative, referendum and recall: Oregon did the same some time ago and Washing- ton will do likewise when the opportunity is offered and the man who gets into the paths of these forward reform movements is liable to be stepped on, Our ex-senator is a bright, brainy man and a leader of men, and a man who in the future, can, and ought to.be. of more benefit to the state than he has been in the past, and both friends and enemies will regret to know that he still continues to ally himself with the old school of stalwart; poli-. ticians that have, with the slightest-exeep- tions, been repudiated by the voters: It’s the love of power that has caused our ex- senator, like Casey at the football game. at Mudville, to go the wrong way. ,Not-so very. long ago, he could sit in his office and. die-, tate the nomination and election of, aiy man in the county, but he has been shorn. of that power by the direct primary and those days of delegates and conventions are gone and gone forever. The. state needs the ex-sena- tor, the city of Seattle needs him as.a live, wide-awake. progressive leader and reform- er, but never again as an old school county political boss. Achilles skulked too long in . his tent at. the siege of Troy. We trust our ex-senator will emerge from his tent at once. The last legislature enacted a law requir- ing judges to grant a change of venue in all eases upon filing an affidavit of prejudice. No one is responsible for the passage of this law but the judges themselves. We regret to say that our nine superior court judges have added a section to the court rules that in some cases will deprive a party of the benefit of this law. As a rule, judges will not try a ease if the party is of the opinion that he cannot have a fair trial, and many changes have been made by trial courts upon the bare verbal request of the attorney. Then on the other side, some judges will pre- vent a change of venue if they can. Why this is so is to me incomprehensible. Why a judge would wish to try a case that he knows the party to the suit and his attorney both believe they will not receive a square deal, will probably always remain unex- plained. I looked twice)at- the rules before I could believe that Judge Ronald’s name was signed to it. I was no less astonished eS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1911: The fact of the matter is that, we have too many court rules, but in most cases they do no harm. In this instance, however, an ex- amination of the rule, if enforced, will in many instances deprive a party to an ac- tion of the right of change of trial court which the act of the legislature intended to give him. God never made fairer and more honorable men than some of the superior court judges for King county. and I am satis- fied these men did not fully realize the wrong they were doing when they signed the rule referred to. Prsident Taft’s fight on the recall of judges looks like thirty cents in California, where it was adopted by an overwhelming vote. Oregon has such a law, and Washington is eager to adopt it. There is no need of be- coming hysterical over the recall or its abuse. The judge who will fairly and with absolute impartiality try the cases assigned to him will never be troubled with. a recall; others are unfit to det as judges and ought to be re- called. The good and everlasting God never, in His creation of man, equalled so despicable a creature as a partial, dishonest judge, who with the power of the state behind him, re- fuses to give a man charged with erime or -a litigant in a civil action a fair and square deal. The recall will make the honest, con- scientious judge no better—it may put hon- esty and decency in the partial dishonest one. The fear of God ‘has no terrors for the lat- ter, the fear of man’s ballot may have. Some ‘day, the people will praise God for the re- eall. S204 ; 5 ee ap tg eee Lert oom ke We-have had oceasion to speak of Sheriff Robert T. Hodge’s nerve. We are pleased .te-ttote that even age does not apparently diminish it. The latest, was his refusal to serve a subpoen3 in a criminal case. Judge Main quietly advised the sheriff to serve the subpoena. He served it. At another time, the sheriff refused. to serve a warrant of ar- rest in a criminal case which was under. the seal of the superior court. I took the war- rant to the office myself. He served the war- rant, and that was one of the lucky hits of our Bob’s happy life. Judge Gay’s volubility apparently got the better of him last Saturday morning when he entertained the attorneys with a deserta- tion on preachers and saloonkeepers. It took three newspapers and all the leisure time of the jurist during the present week to cor- rectly and thoroughly explain himself. The jurist said there were more saloonkeepers than there were preachers. According to the late government census, his was a correct statement. He also told those present, who by this time were sitting up straight and tak- ing notice. that the saloonkeepers. worked longer hours than the preachers, and to em- phasize this he remarked and said that the saloon men were busier than the ‘preachers. I: don’t quite understand why the judge thought it necessary to explain himself. In exceptional cases, perhaps, the preacher might be as busy as the saloon man, but that By A. G. McBride THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN 5 parallel between the two occupations, or even intimated that the preacher was not the equal of the saloon man in all respects. Every great man must endure a certain amount of criticism and Engineer Thomson cannot expect to escape this chastizing. It is possible that the great engineer has been in the office so long that he has grown a little careless. and permitted contractors to over- charge the property owners on street im- provements, but I cannot believe he has been guided by any dishonest motives, Mr. Thom- son has been a very busy man. He has been an awful worker. Seattle does, and always will, love him for the great work he has done in laying the foundations for a great city. No, we will not give him a monument now, but later on he shall have one in harmony with the monumental work he inaugurated. If you must criticize him, go easy—go light, for he is the best friend your dear city ever had. . THE COUNTRY PRESS. For a number of years J. M. Layhue, now candidate for state superintendent of publie instruétion, was superintendent ‘of schools for Puyallup, which is only a few miles from Sumner, Washington, and in speaking about his proposed candidacy the Index of Sumner says, ‘‘he took an undue advantage of the editor by buying up a tax certificate on some property of his, which cost us quite a sum of money to redeem from him, and all the time Layhue held the certificate he was pro- fessing ‘friendship’ for the editor and knew the certificate he held was against his prop- erty.’’ If the above be a fact; and it’ is not denied, then it-would:seém that Prof. Lay- hue is not the man for the hiéad of the school systém of the state. ” ; “China needs . doctors,”’ says the Colfax Gazette.

That popular and always welcome drama of the blue-grass state, 'In Old Kentucky,' will be the attraction at the Seattle Theatre next week, opening with the matinee Sunday. This play, now justly famed as the most successful drama on the American stage, seems destined to break all theatrical traditions on account of its long and prosperous career. It stands in the front rank of popular offerings of the present day and it holds its own with the best of modern plays. The charm of the piece lies in its perpetual freshness and vigor. Its heart interest is simple and direct—its scenic attractiveness does not depend upon any passing fad, and its most thrilling scene has for its foundation that most stirring contest—a horse race. Sol Smith Russell's great comedy, "A Poor Relation," that has held the attention, excited the smiles and touched the hearts of the American public for the past dozen years, next week will be seen here in a revival that bears rich promise. Lee Willard, who starred in a long tour of the famous play, is to appear in the leading role. Edward E. Kidder wrote "A Poor Relation" to fit the peculiar talents of the eminent old-time comedian and ever since its initial success it has been known as Russell's play. "A Poor Relation" is a good old play belonging to the days when theater-goers were strong on lights and shadows, and were not ashamed of moisture in the eye, nor slow to hiss villainy and applaud virtue triumphant. Withal it is intensely interesting and is full of humorous lines and situations that ingeniously and irresistibly compel alternate laughter and tears. a a a a a a a a NN a RR a TOT i a a i Lc maT a RIG FEES ta Ss 18 Te Ne hte SU ee nee fe Me aE e- FRIDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1911.
