The coming election in Seattle for municipal officials from mayor to councilmen will be non-partisan. Any candidate for office who is so at the behest of any political party or organization can not legally qualify for the office to which he may have been elected. To become a candidate for a municipal office in Seattle twenty-five qualified voters must sign a petition requesting A, B or C to be a candidate for mayor or any other office that is to be filled and file the said petition with the city comptroller, who will at once notify the person petitioned to become a candidate and such person must accept the same within ten days or the name will not appear on the ballot. The names of all persons so petitioned will appear on the primary ballot. Where there are more than one candidate for the same office the two getting the highest number of votes at the primary election will be declared the regular nominees and though one of them gets a majority of all the votes cast, yet such candidate is only a nominee and must be voted for two weeks later at the regular election. That no one may be misled we repeat, no one seeking official honors in Seattle must do so as the candidate of any party or such candidate is ineligible. This is said in view of the fact a number of mayoralty barkuses are being groomed by party organizations. At her next election Seattle will elect a mayor, a corporation counsel, a city comptroller, a city treasurer, three regular councilmen each for three years and one councilman for one year to serve out the unexpired term of Councilman Steiner, who resigned, such member of the council will only serve one year as Mr. Steiner was elected for only two years and at the election only one of his two years will have been used up. We all know that, if the present Congress thwarts any attempts at economy, it will be doing no more than it has been doing since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary. The very idea of associating Congress with economy is preposterous. Two months ago The Seattle Republican intimated Blethen's go free, owing to the kiss and make up of the P.-I. and the Times, and after reading last Sunday's P.-I. and Times, we feel almost like saying, "I told you so." SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DEC. 8, 1911. In holding the indictments against certain would-be Alaska coal land grabbers valid the United States Supreme Court has saved the government's vast coal fields from the clutches of a syndicate of human hogs, who would not hesitate to corral the air in order to financially profit therefrom. It does not amount to a tinker's damn whether any of the men indicted are convicted since the government's right to prevent syndicating her natural resources at the expense of the masses by knocking out the demurrer set up by the defense and sustained by Judge C. H. Hanford, was thoroughly established. The next move of the coal barons will be to keep Congress from authorizing government officials from developing the country at the expense of the general government. When the McNamaras plead guilty, the most diabolical crime of the century was laid open for inspection. "God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform," and He caused that brace of foul red-handed murderers to plead guilty that the monumental crime of the age would have no condolers as it would have, had the men been found guilty by the ordinary process of law. It, however, is the concensus of opinion that the McNamaras plead guilty, at the behest of the "higher-ups," who, perhaps, are equally guilty before the fact with the view of protecting themselves. Organized labor as a whole may not have been a known party to the McNamaras crimes, but its actions in the past toward non-union workmen condoned those crimes, and its effort to raise a half a million dollars to defend the McNamaras without knowing whether they were guilty or innocent is proof sufficient that they were willing and ready to resort to any manner of violence to prevent non-union workmen from taking the places of striking union men. The last leap of the Sixty-second Congress of the United States of America is being spun off, the presidential election coming next year with the House of Representatives Democratic and the Senate and the President Republican, with the Socialist assuming a threatening attitude at the front door of the national capital the presumption is nothing but cheap politics will either be attempted or accomplished during the short session. The Alaska question, which the Progressives purpose making the paramount issue in Republican ranks for the presidential nomination, will cut a conspicuous figure in the present session. The tariff question will likewise be worked overtime by both Republicans and Democrats. President Taft's third annual message was, as are all Presidential messages, full of meet for thought, but the chief thought LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 an 911. VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 40. COMMENT NT in the message was the bursting of trusts. There seems to be no denying that President Taft purposes to throttle the trusts and those interested in that game fully realize what they are up against, but they see no way of bettering themselves by openly opposing Taft, for, perhaps, La Follette or even the immortal Teddy, if you please, might fall heir to his shoes, hence they are keeping still. President Taft is in a most peculiar situation, he is charged by the laboring people as being a trust protegee and charged by the trust magnates as being of a Populist turn and seeking to disturb the business conditions of the country, hence under the circumstances neither faction really wants him to be his own successor. His recent message, however, has to an extent lessened common criticism of him. Whether Governor Hay will or will not call an extra session we verily doth not know, but we are inclined to believe he will, not because he will be convinced of its necessity, but because he will hope to make some political capital of it for his own candidacy. The calling of the legislature will mean at least the expenditure of $100,000 of the state's money and all for the sake of sickly sentiment. A lot of claquers want a Presidential preferential vote taken for an advertisement for La Follette. The state of Washington, in our opinion, is most decidedly in favor of La Follette for President and the members of the Republican State Central Committee should not hesitate to order a general primary election to elect delegates to the various county conventions, who, at the state convention, would select delegates to the national convention, which convention would take such steps towards endorsing a Presidential candidate as it saw fit. Not long ago the police department of Seattle raided a hotel and arrested a number of persons, guests of the house, but in their rooms, and so far as any one knew obeying the law. The doors of many of the rooms were kicked open when the occupants refused to open the door. One room was occupied by an Alaskan hunter, and he was awakened and told to open his door or it would be kicked open. "All right, go to it, but, if you do, there will be need of an undertaker's wagon as well as a patrolman's wagon," and he immediately put his shot gun in order for action. The bluecoats smelled a mice and looked for easier victims nor did Chief Bannick fire or lay off the men for not breaking open that particular door though it was the only one of many that was not broken open that night. Everything seems to be a frame-up in Los Angeles in the McNamara trial and the leading citizens thereof. If the McNamaras ```markdown ``` Sunset Telephone's Beautiful Vail Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company, is betraying no trust in saying "My company stands ready to purchase the plant of the Independent Telephone Company of Seattle." Yea, not only stands ready to do so, but verily has done so, Mr. Vail, and a veil is thrown over the transaction with the hope that the Seattle municipality would authorize it, and thereby put the business houses, offices and homes of the city at the mercy of one of the most mercinary and heartless trusts that has ever operated in the United States, which is saying a good deal. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company makes good "only when it can not help itself and if it is given a telephone monopoly in Seattle in three months' time after the deal has been signed, sealed and delivered one could walk across the city and deliver a message before he could reach the other fellow by telephone service. We who were here when this self-same company had a telephone monopoly in Seattle know whereof we speak. There is hardly any doubt but that that smooth-talking representative of the telephone monopoly was sent here to give out the interview, which appeared in the morning paper concerning the two telephone companies in Seattle which was prepared in New York and inserted for so much per, so as to Vail the real issue and throw the unsuspecting public off its guard and thereby forge a telephone monopoly about the commercial neck of Seattle that would take a decade or more to burst. When Mr. Vail says, "we only want a reasonable return on our money invested," we shudder at what we may expect in the future in the way of monthly telephone rentals, as less than a year ago this same telephone company advanced its rate 25 per cent, and its excuse for so doing was, the great number of telephones in use in the city, that is to say, the greater the number of telephones in use the higher the monthly rentals must necessarily be. Following out that theory that company would no sooner absorb the Independent system than it would, in order to keep from going broke, have to again advance its rates and business telephones would probably cost from $9 to $12 per month. We know a great many persons can and will pay the increases, but is it fair? We know a great many persons would be getting off with less telephone costs than with the dual system, but does that justify the robbery. Is it right to permit a company of men to rob the community out of a million or more dollars annually? In the light of the Vail interview we see more clearly than ever that the only sensible as well as reasonable thing for the people of Seattle to do is to establish a municipal telephone system and operate it at actual cost, which would include a sinking fund for retiring the bonds and likewise a maintenance fund. Do that and there is no doubt but that the business telephone rates in Seattle instead of being increased to $9 or $12 per month would be reduced to $3 or $4 per month. Seattle now owns her water and electric light systems and her citizens enjoy the cheapest rates for water and light of any other city in the whole country, unless it is some city similarly situated. We therefore believe that the city of Seattle should itself take over the Independent telephon system, but, if that can not be done without legal complications, let both of the present companies go to the dimnation bow-wows and inaugurate a complete up-to-date system of its own, which would make it possible for every householder in the city to enjoy the telephone convenience. Running a city should be done on a business basis and whatever public service convenience that can be operated at a better advantage to the people the municipality should lose no time in adapting the use of such. Why should the people interest themselves in the proposed telephone merger since it will only put them at the mercy of a bunch of Wall Street gamblers who have no regards for the feelings of God, man or the devil. The owners of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company have no ties in common with the business men of Seattle save to filch them by high telephone rentals and exorbitant telegraph rates as the same company owns the Western Union Telegraph Company. Give us a home telegraph company. 2 would plead guilty prior to the city election neither of them would be hanged, which would be done if they remained silent and permitted the Socialist candidate for mayor to be elected. The men plead guilty and the other side kept promise and one got life and the other fifteen years. The Socialist candidate for mayor was not elected, yea, instead of being elected he was beaten by 60,000 votes. There are ways and then ways to do things and the Los Angeles business men are dead on to their job. EDITORIAL It must have cost thousands of dollars to carry on the war of destruction against the non-union establishments all over the country and the question arises, Didn't those contributing the money know for what it was being used? "Well, I reckon." Gompers lost his head after the arrest of the McNamaras and failed to find it even in the light of the dual confession of the brothers. Unless the distinguished gentleman slows down some one will suspect he has reasons for soaring high. Technically speaking, Standard Oil Johnny has jumped his job and another fills his shoes, but we suspect Br'er John has a good stout string to "another's" coattail and when he shows any signs of not doing as he is told that string will be given a good hard jerk. There are more ways of killing a dog besides choking him to death with butter. It is not for the hotel men of New York to discuss, How can we prevent the traveling public from being robbed by the tipping system? but for the traveling public to devise ways and means to escape being robbed by the proprietors of alleged "high class hotels." Darrow did not use quite all of the $190,- 000 collected for the McNamaras' defense, in selecting six jurymen to his liking, but he did the best he could. If we were asked, Why is the Sunset Telephone Company like a beautiful woman? we suspect we would answer, on account of its magnificent Vail. Who knows but what Clarence Darrow did really divide up the money with the bribe-takers and that he is more generous than he is given credit for? Stranger things than that have happened. We wonder if the editor of the Seattle Daily Times entertains any higher opinion of W. J. Burns, the world's most re-nowned detective, now than he did some months ago? True enough Burns did not quite get the Colonel, but he gave him a close call, so close that even the Colonel should not hesitate to give him credit for doing things. With Clarence Dayton Hillman practically in the penitentiary and Charles F. Munday and those associated with him in the Alaska coal land grab forced to go to trial, it begins to look as if no mistake was made, when it was said, "Your sins will find you out." The mills of the gods grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN J. J. D. Dean. Friday, December 8, 1911. The president of the King County Weekly Publishers' Association, is one of the foremost publishers of the state. He is the publisher of the White River Journal and The Ranch, each of which rank among the most successful publications of the entire state. Prior to casting his lot in Kent Mr. Dean owned and operated the Daily Washingtonian of Hoquiam, which was the first daily established in the Gray's Harbor country. "A little hard labor would not hurt some of our muck-rakers," says a Times editorial. Quite right, Colonel, and you would be surprised to know how many persons right here in Seattle that have expressed bitter disappointment at Seattle's chief muck-raker escaping a term of hard labor. From last Saturday's vote one might suspect there is a Socialist propaganda club in Seattle. Friday, December 8, 1911. L. Frank Brown, one of Seattle's leading Democrats, is now affiliating with the Republican Progressives. He evidently has a political bee in his bonnet. E. C. McDonald, deputy United States district attorney of Spokane, was attending to legal business in Seattle this week. George Turner, one of Washington's foremost men, has been named by President Taft as one of the commissioners of international water ways and boundaries. Myron E. Hay, governor of the state of Washington, is between the devil and the deep sea as to calling an extra session of the legislature, but he would not be if he were not of the milk and cider stripe. those who figured in the late Tacoma conference as to calling an extra session of the legislature, are office seekers and hope to improve their chances by the part they take in this political horse play. C. D. Hillman's efforts to break into the federal penitentiary has been more successful than he had thought it could be. In thirty days more he will probably be a boon companion of George H. Parker, the wireless telegraphy fiend. Judge J. T. Ronald may have done the only thing he could have legally done in the Blethen case, but in doing so he has lost a good many votes in case he is a candidate to succeed himself. Richard Winsor, after a score or more futile attempts to be elected to an office in the state of Washington from United States senator down, was elected a member of the school board last Saturday. He is a highly educated gentleman and will give the district splendid service. E. Shorrock for the third time has been elected a member of the school board. By those who know it is claimed his services have been more beneficial to the district than all of the other members combined. Judge A. W. Frater, who has had such phenomenal success with the incorrigible boys and girls, is to continue to preside over the juvenile court. Some time ago a number of women registered a protest against Judge Frater, but the protest was not wide spread. POINTED PRESS PARAGRAPHS.

This offering will be the same as that which made the long successful run at the Whitney Opera House in Chicago. The theme of the piece came to the attention of the author during his career as a newspaperman with the New York Herald, and all of the funny situations are of the modern day nature, and the solution of the complications brings many laughs. Dave Lewis has inserted into the play many bright lines of his own construction, and with the specialties that always feature Lewis' plays, the offering is doubly worth seeing.

ALBERT HANSEN JEWELER @ SILVERMITH Established FIRST AND 1883 CHERRY The People's Forum By A. G. McBride The superior court has given Colonel Blethen a clear bill of health. By force of the constitution and the statutes of the state of Washington, the Colonel is not a nuisance, and has not maintained such a thing. But the whole thing was funny—exceedingly funny, and actors in the play, played well their parts. The Colonel was indicted several times and from what I can learn, against the judgment and desires of Mr. Murphy, and so thoroughly was the prosecuting attorney convinced that the evidence was not sufficient to convict, that he refused to sign and file the indictments until ordered so to do by the court. This was made clear during the trial of the case by Mr. Fulton, and the only mistake that I can see that was made in the case was, that Judge Ronald should have cited Mr. Murphy to appear and again declare himself, and if in his judgment the evidence was not sufficient, the case should have been dismissed and the county saved the costs of a trial. Mr. Fulton knew how little there was to the matter, but in acting his part, you would have thought he was making the fight of his life, and in a most desperate case. The prosecutors, Mr. Caldwell and Mr. Lundin, put up a stiff fight without any evidence. They fought desperately, but apparently they were not bothering themselves as to the question of guilt or innocense. Caldwell got so earnest that he started a "rough house" with the court, just like I do when Judge Gay and I take a turn. A lawyer friend of mine said to me, "It's a frameup." No, it was not a frameup. Judge James T. Ronald don't participate in "frameups," and if there had been any evidence to sustain a verdict, the judge would have submitted the facts to the jury. But the funniest part of all, was the serious manner in which Walter Fulton took himself. This case reminds me of the time when I first started in the practice. In the county in which I lived, a justice of the peace fined a girl named Charity Mahala Slusser for committing an assault and battery in and upon the body of a girl named Rosa Beard. She appealed to the higher court and just before the case was called for trial, eight lawyers choose sides and tried the case. When the third day of the trial was nearly ended, Charity Mahala Slusser gave out, and her collapse was complete. The judge thought he saw "something" and directed a verdict. The lawyers made an awful fight. They fought as hard as Walter Fulton and Hugh Caldwell did in this case. History has repeated itself. It will not be long until the primaries will be held for the nomination of county officers and judges. Everywhere you hear that we ought to have an improved judiciary in King county, and last week I said I would give the recipe in this issue. It's easy, awful easy. Publicity by the P. I. is all that is needed. To illustrate: If a judge misbehaves himself, or makes a queer decision, go to it. He will resign if you tell him to. The P. I. did just that little trick, and not so very long ago, either. If we are to have any improvement in the courts, it is the newspapers that can give us the informa- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN tion. It may be said that no one paper or person has the right to assume the roll of a dictator. But you forget that at the present time we are governed by the papers. The people don't rule—it is the newspapers. You don't like to hear it, but it is the truth, and the two great papers of Seattle, by a united effort, could give us the best and cleanest governed city and county on the Pacific coast. You can prevent the election of undesirable and incompetent judges, and you ought to do it. Of course, my recipe is no good unless favoritism is eliminated and public welfare only is considered. Seattle is going some, when it elects a Socialist to the school board. These Socialists are a happy and enthusiastic gang. They all turn out and vote—the Republicans and Democrats stay away from the polls. Some people think socialism will wear out of a man in seven years, but that is a mistake. There are too many alluring things about the principles of socialism. The most perfect government that ever existed was that of the ancient Egyptians, when they taught the people that the true aim and object was to make life easy and the people happy. Socialists are striving to attain such conditions. They want a fairer show in the great struggle of life than they are getting. They may not get all they expect, but if they keep on increasing, they will secure an improvement of present conditions. The criticism against the conduct of Mr. Clarence Darrow, chief counsel for the McNamara brothers, are in the main unjust. It seems strange to me that with so many lawyers and so much litigation, the relations of attorney and client, from a legal or ethical standpoint, are so little understood. One of, if not the ablest editorial writers on the Pacific coast, recently said, "that it is not the lawyer's business to clear a guilty man." That statement is only about half true. A lawyer has the right, and it is his duty to appear and defend a guilty man, and use all fair and honorable means to secure for him a fair trial, and if in doing so, the man is acquitted by force of a defect in the law, or otherwise, I cannot see why the lawyer should be blamed. We have no evidence that proves that when Mr. Darrow broke up his business in Chicago and went to Los Angeles to defend the McNamaras, he then knew they were guilty. But it may be said that he should have abandoned the case when he discovered the guilt of his client. No, wrong again. Even in the defense of a guilty man, the defendant is frequently entitled to the benefit of some mitigating evidence, and there is some testimony of that nature that might properly be introduced in the McNamara trial if it had gone to a finish. The people of Boston in 1770 became very angry with John Adams because he defended the British soldiers who shot Crispus Attucks, but thereafter these same fault finders joined in a tribute to Adams and his associates. Frequently men are accused of crime, who by the strong public sentiment are declared guilty, and who find it difficult to secure the services of an at- Friday, December 8, 1911. torney, and more difficult yet to secure a fair trial, and in these cases, innocent men are sometimes prosecuted, and the lawyer who defends in such a case, should be regarded as a public benefactor. The best and safest plan is to give every man, guilty or innocent, a fair and impartial trial. This question of defending guilty men has been discussed for centuries. The able upright The announcement was made last Monday evening that Mr. Crawford had been eliminated from the management of the Seattle, Renotn and Southern, and that the new president wanted peace, not war, with the residents of the Rainier Boulevard. The new man's name is Mills. I'll bet he isn't as good a fighter as Crawford, but a man of a dozen times more sense. Mr. Murphy has declared himself on the Blethen case and he has conclusively shown that the mistake he made was that he did not dismiss the case without a trial. Judge Ronald remains silent, and very properly too. He may make mistakes but the people know he will not do a wrong. Mr. Caldwell feels sore. I don't blame him. I know how it is myself. I presented a murder case before the judge, and about thirty minutes before I was ready to rest my case, the court inquired if the balance of my evidence was on the same line. I said it was. I didn't want to lie, so I told the truth. Judge Ronald didn't intimate that I had failed to prove a case, he told me so in the strongest kind of words. I kicked, just as Caldwell did, but my case went out of court just as the Blethen case did. Judge Humes once told me a lawyer had a right to cuss every court's adverse ruling, if done in the absence of the judge. I did this, and felt better. After a year's consideration, I think the judge was right. judges, not the criminal lawyers, have declared, that it is the duty of a lawyer to defend a man, though guilty, to the extent that he have a fair and impartial trial, and the law is maintained and the better vindicated thereby. When Mr. Darrow became convinced that it was to the interest of his clients to plead guilty, he promptly advised the defendants to do so, and no doubt, he has done a great public service in advising the McNamaras to confess everything and bring to justice the men who hired them to commit these crimes. It may cost a whole lot to live in these days of trust and monopoly, but, owing to the preacher trust, the coffin trust and the undertakers' trust, its simply nothing in comparison to the high cost of dying, which, being a fact, voluntarily we refuse to die unless H. C. Henry or some other philanthropist reduces the cost of dying to a "living" rate. The Seattle Republican FOR LEGAL NOTICES Telephone, MAIN 305 Friday, December 8, 1911. LEGAL NOTICES 427 Epler Blk.
