Main 305 427 Epler Block Seattle, Washington HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON, - - - Publisher SUSIE REVELS CAYTON, - - - Associate POLITICIANS' PRESS AGENTS. Press agents for political aspirants are beginning to get busy sending political dope to the various newspapers with the view of having the same published without cost. These press agents are paid princely sums for their services, and their services consist in writing dope, not a word of which is correct, but so worded that even the publisher will be taken in by it. The weekly press of the state has been imposed upon by the politicians since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary and it is about time to call a halt. We suggest that publishers of weekly papers consign all press agent dope to the waste basket unless the same is paid for at regular advertising rates. There is plenty of things to fill your papers with besides political dope of candidates, at the expense of the newspaper publishers. Mr. A. or B. may not be the candidate of the daily papers with trust leanings, but Mr. A. or Mr. B. is not the candidate of the weekly papers only so far as Mr. A. or Mr. B. can work them, and the sooner the weekly press gets wise to that the sooner will the publishers thereof be considered in the political game. The newspaper publisher has space to sell and lives thereby. The chronic office seeker has no more right to expect that space to be given him than do business houses and it is not a business proposition for the publisher to give it, the flowery press agents to the contrary notwithstanding. When the management of one of the daily papers of Seattle was asked a few days ago by a prospective candidate for public office, what attitude would the paper take toward his candidacy he was informed that the paper was not in the business of nominating candidates for office and the paper was not interested in the personal candidacy of any one. On the other hand the space in the paper was for sale and if he or any one else desired to use that space it was so much per. If the daily papers are making it a commercial proposition, it's right and proper the weekly papers do likewise. The press agents of certain candidates are already trying to array the weekly press of the state against the daily press, not with the view of helping the cause of the weekly press, but to get the cause of some candidate exposed, which candidate's cause the daily press has rejected. If the weekly press does not take care of itself it is very evident that neither the politicians nor the daily press will do so. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, DEC. 15, 1911. Organized labor is reported as having spent $190,000 in preparing for the defense of the McNamaras and now comes the state of California with the report that she spent $133,000 in gathering facts for the prosecution, which in round numbers brings the cost of the case to almost $325,000, which to say the least was $320,000 too much. The disposition in the United States is when a person or persons be charged with crime, to make a mountain out of a mole hill if sufficient money is available on both sides. The crime that may have been committed pales into insignificance if the mazuma is forthcoming. Sometimes a rich man is sent to prison, but it's only after multiplied thousands of dollars have been spent in trying to corrupt judge and jury. The United States senate having been presided over by a Negro and an Indian there ought no longer be any doubt of the fact, using Uncle Jasper's words, "the world do move." While Blanche K. Bruce, the Negro from Mississippi, was in the senate he presided over the deliberations of that body for a day and gracefully retired at nightfall to his seat in the body. The country is growing broader and Senator Charles Curtis, the Kaw Indian from Kansas, presided over the senate a whole week during the absence of Vice-President Sherman. A strange coincidence in the Negro and the Indian being accorded this honor lies in the fact that both of them were so near white that the blood of the people with which they were racially identified could hardly be detected. Bruce should not have been classed as a Negro nor should Curtis be classed as an Indian. After a stormy session of the Republican National Committee, at which the ghost of Roosevelt frequently appeared, it was decided to hold the next presidential convention in Chicago, June 18th, 1912. The committee dodged the dangerous thrusts made by the enemies of the Taft administration by referring them to the convention, which was the same as deciding them in favor of the standpatters. While Washington seems inclined to favor the Progressive wing of the party a move is on foot to send a Standpat delegation to the convention and for the sake of vindication head the delegation with Richard Achilles Ballinger, which would mean the state would go overwhelmingly for the Democratic nominees at the general election. Arizona following in the wake of New Mexico went Democratic from stern to gudgeon, which, to say the least, was an unexpected blow on the cranium of the Republican party. New Mexico was conceded to the Democrats, even before it was VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 41. admitted, but it was thought that the Arizona voters had more sense. The recall of judges, which figured considerably in the the constitutional convention was defeated. The elections that have been pulled off this year seem to indicate that the public mind is in a Democratic mood. UNCLE SAM'S THIRST HABIT. The last year witnessed the largest production of distilled spirits in the history of this country,175,402,395 gallons having been produced, representing an increase of 6,828,482 gallons over the largest previous production, which was in 1907, and an increase of 19,164,869 gallons over 1910. The production of beer, ale, etc., amounted to 63,216,851 barrels, nearly 4,000,000 barrels more than in the previous record year, 1910. The amount of lisuor held in bonded warehouses for ripening now reaches the enormous total of 249,279,346 gallons. The quantity per capita consumed in the United States is not, however, in the case of beer, as great as in Belgium, the United Kingdom, Germany, or Denmark; while our per capita consumption of distilled spirits is less than that of Denmark, Hungary, Austria, France, the Netherlands, or Sweden. Of wines the quantity consumed in the United States is below that of Portugal, Spain, Germany, Italy, or France; and the per capita consumption is less than that of France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Austria, or Hungary. The quantity of malt liquors consumed in the United States in 1910 was 1,851,000,000 gallons, against 1,704,000,000 in Germany, and 1,397,000,000 in the United Kingdom, that of Austria being 430,000,000, Belgium 412,000,000, France 376,000,000, and Russia 231,000,000 gallons. Of spirits the quantity consumed in the United States was 133,500,000 proof gallons, against 232,750,000 in Russia, the per capita being in each case 1.45 gallons, against a little less than one gallon in the United Kingdom. The quantity of beer per capita consumed in the United States was, in 1910, 20 gallons, against 31.44 gallons in the United Kingdom and 26.47 gallons in Germany. In the consumption of wines France leads the world, 15,410,000, or 39.36 gallons per capita, in 1909. Italy in that year consumed 31.17 gallons per capita; Portugal, 27.39 gallons; Switzerland, 14.55 gallons; and the United States, in 1910, only 0.66 gallon per capita. Bath Robes, Smoking Jackets. E.

Last week you were told of the interview of Mr, Vail on the consolidation of the telephone companies in Seattle, and in that interview, if he were correctly quoted, and that is not doubted, Mr, Vail declared the American Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany did not own a dollar’s worth of stock in the Independent Telephone Company of Seattle, nor did any of the stockholders, but now comes John ©. Lawrence, chairman of the Utilities Commission of the state of Washington, and in an address before one of the church clubs of Seattle one evening this week unblushingly declared that the Sun- set Telephone Company many months ago got control of the stock of the Independent Telephone Company and since that time no effort on the part of either company has been made to extend or perfect the service of the Independent Telephone Company. That, however, all Seattle was well aware of and also believed the Sunset owned the Independent and the address made by Mr. Lawrence on the situation is quoted only to compare his statement with that of Mr. Vail, vice-president of the Sunset Company, in the Post-Intelligencer one week prior. If Mr, Vail prevaricated in a part of his interview the presumption is he colored the entire interview so as to hide the ‘‘nigger in the wood pile’? from beginning to end. But Mr. Vail was looking out for the fin- ancial interest of those who have put their money in the telephone system of Seattle and he was not particular as to what statement he made if by doing so he could divert publie attention from his company long enough for him and his associates to get by with the swag. Mr. Vail’s telephone company has spent, to say the least, a million dollars corrupting public officials in order to get a telephone monopoly on the Pacific coast and it is hardly possible that it did so for the sake of getting money to dis- tribute to the poor. Already this telephone company has piled up fortunes for its stockholders and if it sueceeds in getting a monopoly the half has not been told. There is no reason in the world why the municipality of Seattle should not estab- lish a telephone system and give the people better service and at the same time at half the cost the Sunset is charging, and still lay by a sinking fund for interest. and bond redemption. If the present telephone company can make money out of the busi- ness the city can likewise do it and do so too after greatly reducing the rate to the con- sumer. The city council should give the people an opportunity to vote on a municipal telephone system at the next general election in Seattle. The Seattle Republican fought long and hard for the municipal water plant, which brings to the city Cedar river water and it worked equally hard for the city light plant and the people never made more profitable investments. There is no doubt but that a telephone investment would prove equally profitable-—Let’s try it. UNION SAVINGS AND TRUST COMPANY The formal opening of the new bank room of the Union Say- ings and Trust Company in the Hoge building corner, Second avenue and Cherry street, was witnessed by thousands of persons last Satur- day evening and the oceasion was tinged with a bit of Seattle his- tory and romance, Among the guests of honor were C. D. Boren, who sixty-one years ago homesteaded an eighty, of which the spot on which the Hoge skyscraper now stands, was a part of the eighty, and on that particular spot Mr. Boren and his newly wedded wife erected a cabin, in which they resided for a number of years. Mr. Boren, who is now 87 years of age, entertained the throngs with pioneer stories and seemed as highly pleased as the owners of the block, After holding the claim for some years he tired of it and sold it for 4600, The purchaser did not think much of it and he sold a half interest for $300, but a short time thereafter he bought the half interest back and paid $3,000 for it. The assessed value of the eighty at present is over fifty millions and its real value is nearer a quarter of a billion dollars. If Mr. Boren has any regrets for haying sold so cheaply he does not show it: Another guest of honor was Roland H. Denny, the first white child born in Seattle, and he gives no evidence of desiring to shuffle off this mortal coil on account of his age. ‘A no less remarkable figure in the opening than the aforesaid characters was James D, Hoge, president of the institution. When a mere lad he came to Seattle and for a while was the secretary of John H. McGraw, president of the First National Bank. In that capacity he showed the kind of stuff he was made of and an uncle made it possible for him to climb the ladder of success by leaps and bounds. He in turn owned the Post-Intelligencer, the First National Bank and the Union Savings and Trust Company, and in all of them he has been a gigantic success. The new banking establish- ment is by odds the most imposing in the Northwest. If in its new home it continues to prosper as did it in its less commodious quar- EDITORAIL. For a time at least the MeNamaras will enjoy the quiet of San Quentin. Most persons able to shop at all for Christ- mas will shop early and that too without so darn much coaching from the daily press. “The perils of the street’? are largely due to the policies of the home, In other words, the boys and girls, who are responsible for the perils of the street, were permitted to have their own ways at home. Organized labor has undergone a trying ordeal in the MeNamara episode, but whom the Lord loveth Re chasteneth. Observe the Golden Rule fellows and your fight is half won. From last Saturday’s vote in the Commer- cial Club of Seattle it is quite apparent that the Chamber of Commerce will get no new commercial blood for the ensuing year. Spokane’s County Commissioners got: off easy if the women jurors only stole a couple of towels. The men steal both the water and the towels. The Harriman system has decided that a ten-mile tunnel under the Cascades is en- tirely too expensive to be even considered. Evidently the operators of the above system have reached the conclusion that the earning capacity of the patrons of the system has reached its full limit, and any further im- provements would have to be borne by the railroad magnates, which would be a burn- ing shame. ae Ser ee ee Sh See Ee Saale oe a ee Bath Robes, Smoking Jackets.

B. W. Coiner of Tacoma has been recommended by Senator Jones for United States district attorney for Western Washinton; while Senator Poindexter has recommended H. W. Craven of Seattle. Senator Jones could not have done anything more inconsistent as Coiner has arranyed himself against the Republican party so often that, it would be difficult for him to remember when he was a straightout Republican. On the other hand Pointdexter is quite consistent as Craven, like himself, has been a Republican only when he was paid so much for so being or when he considered he had a show to get an office. James A. Moore, the erstwhile Seattle builder and promoter, is not, in the opinion of this paper, as black as the receivers' report has painted him. Mr. Moore was responsible for more speculative capital coming to Seattle, and at a time when she needed it worse, than any twenty-five men combined. But it seems to be human nature to kick a fellow when he is down. He is now in the east endeavoring to straighten out the tangled web. James Wickersham, delegate to Congress from Alaska, spent a few days in Seattle this week. Wickersham belongs to the other bunch, who hope to gobble up the natural resources of the territory of Alaska and only fights his opponents because neither bunch is willing to an equal division of what is in sight. Edmond S. Meaney, professor of history in the University of Washington, has written and caused to be published a book of poems. Many years ago Meaney was thought to possess a queer streak and now it is plain to be seen, but in view of the fact that a price has been placed on the volume, perhaps few will find out about his troubles. Queen Mary's picture, which appeared in the Times last Tuesday evening, looked just like that of a woman, and yet it must be a mistake. Certainly the queen of England is not a human being, but more or less godlike. Is it not sacrilegious to make the queen of England really look like a human being? Jack Johnson reports his retirement from the fistic ring, and from the unsavory reports that have come from England of his six months' checkered career, he has not done so a day too soon. Johnson did not get the "swell head" over his fistic title any worse than all of the others that have worn the honor, but it looked worse because he was black. His handsome wife, like Jack, has had too much Johnson and is reported dying of tuberculosis. The apple that is soon ripe is invariably just as soon rotten. For months it has been reported that he is broke, which must not be true as he jumped a $90,000 contract with MacIntosh to tour Australia. Holeproof Hosiery for men, women and children. E. N. Brooks & Co., 1331 2d Ave. ns in the Public Myron E. Hay, governor of the state of Washington, was in Seattle one day this week and after having been administered a full dose of P.-I. strengthening cordial declared he had no intention of calling an extra session of the legislature, in which he either showed his good sense or the good sense of some one else. I. M. Howell, secretary of state by appointment, who is to be the candidate of the daily press, to succeed himself, writes this office to this effect, "since your valuable paper does not see fit to enthusiastically support my candidacy please discontinue the same to my address." It was this self same Howell that was reported as having recently said: "I care not whether a single one of the weekly papers of the state support me." Howell was defeated for the nomination at the last primary with the daily press supporting him and he may get it again. L. H. Gray of more or less local political fame, has gone to California for the winter, and rumor has it that he announced before leaving: "I am through for all time to come with the political game, and in the future will attend strictly to my business." C. W. Claussen, auditor of state, formally announced his candidacy to succeed himself in the Record of Olympia in its last issue. Unlike George Washington Mr. Claussen has no horrors of a third term. John M. Hunsicker, more or less prominent in local political circles, has two or more federal indictments hanging over his head for trying to increase the population of Seattle. Incidentally it meant something for him to make the increase and he needed the money in his business. Josephine Corlis-Preston of Walla Walla has decided to cross swords with J. M. Layhne for superintendent of public instruction, and there is talk of others. Gov. Hay, so it is reported, has been forced to spend a whole week in Olympia trying to figure out where he would get off, if he called an extra session of the legislature. He failed to figure it out. W. W. Wilshire must be "coming back," since he was recently elected president of the Seattle Commercial Club. Wilshire dropped out after serving two terms as state senator and for a number of years was almost forgotten, but he seems to be coming back. Ralph M. Hopkins, for many years clerk of the United States district court, was recently indicted by a federal grand jury and subsequently arrested, charged with having embezzled government funds in his official capacity. Hopkins was czar like and had really convinced himself that, God had made him out of a superior quality of clay than had other men been made. He has few, if Bath Robes, Smoking Jackets. E. N. Brooks & Co., 1331 2nd Ave. --- any, sympathizers in this hour of trouble, nor will he have if his "hour of trouble" is extended to ten years at McNeil. He is a protege of Judge Hanford. Samuel D. Bridges, like R. M. Hopkins, was clerk of the U. S. court in Tacoma, and he has been charged with having robbed the government out of $100,000, for which he has been indicted and arrested. It looks as if that brace of public looters told each other how it was done and then went to it. Though they have returned much of the money yet they should be convicted and punished. E. L. French, for the past two sessions a member of the Washington legislature, has announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination of lieutenant governor. The first session he was a member of the legislature he worked with the rather politically notorious Edward B. Palmer, and the last session he was a protegee of Jim McNeeley of Pierce County, who fathered and engineered the scheme to prevent the state from being re-apportioned for senators and representatives in the legislature because King County would get the bulk of the increase, which also carried with it the dividing of the state into five Congressional district. King County voters nor the voters of any other county in the state that are for fair play should give French a single vote and Jim McNeeley will get his.

McBride Country Press and Comment I made a trip to Falls City and Tolt last week. My first visit to those places was November 3rd, 1890. They have been "going some" in that part of the county since then. My last week's trip was made in an auto stage from Kirkland, over some of the finest roads in the state, and none that would be called bad. These highways were constructed by the King County road builder, Almus Rutherford. The King county judges met last week and assigned Judge Ronald to the criminal department for next year. Judges Albertson and Dykeman go into the equity. Judge Frater is to look after the juveniles for another year. I understand there was some opposition to the judge continuing in that department. One thing must be said of Judge Frater, and that is, he will give a matter a thorough investigation and never decide a case against man, woman or child, without giving the party an opportunity to be heard. The judge may paralyze a lawyer with his decision, but the attorney gets a respectful hearing first. A Renton chicken rancher saw one of Doe Hager's microbes sitting on the side of a water bucket and ever since he boiled the water for his fowls. A passenger on the Everett interurban wanted to get off between the city line and The King county country papers and some of the small weekly publications in Seattle have recently organized a county press association. A good thing if the members of the association will only stick together and go after better prices. Those papers, or some of them, are now printing legals for just a little more than it takes to set the type, and running after the business at those rates. If they do not think enough of their business to demand better prices for their work, these publishers ought to get out of it, and let men take their places, who have enough respect for the calling to lift it above a "cheap John" starvation level. Pt. Orchard Independent. Old King David wasn't the only man who ever "said in his heart that all men are liars." While we don't know of a verity whether the old man was absolutely accurate in the count, we are prone to believe that he was too near right to make betting on the margin a safe proposition. Human nature hasn't changed much in the last three thousand years, has it?—Sunnyside Observer. It's amusing how unanimous is the country and the city press in condemnation of the McNamarras since their confessions. Had the press, the pulpit and the people withheld deciding the guilt or innocence of those men until they had had a fair and impartial trial it would have been showing good common sense. The Coal Digger of Wilkeson with Arthur THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN le's Forum McBride Fremont a few weeks ago, but the conductor told him that it was against the rules to let any one off between those two points. The passenger was not willing to be bound by such a rule and started for the door, taking his own chances on making a safe and not too speedy landing. The conductor, not exercising the best of judgment, attempted to prevent the passenger from jumping off, and that is where the railroad man made a mistake, for the caged passenger swatted the conductor on the chin and face and then quietly jumped off the car. The only thing out of whack with this story is that the manager that made the rule was not the one who received the swats. The labor unions and Socialists should have taken my advice and not moved so swiftly in resoluting on the innocence of the McNamaras. You can't nearly most always tell about these things. When Burns says he has the cinch on a man, or a set of men, don't be in a hurry to dispute him. My idea is that when a man is charged with crime, wait and see. Do what you can to give him a fair trial, but otherwise, wait and see. The McNamaras have made every friend they have look like less than thirty cents, when they plead guilty. Bath Robes, Smoking Jackets. E. N. Brooks & Co., 1331 2nd Ave. and Comment Jensen as editor has made its bow to the public, while the Eye of Edson, a two year old, no loner watches the wicked world. Here is a truism from the Sun of Sunnyside that is worth remembering: "The man who speculates with the aim of getting something for nothing almost invariably winds up with getting nothing for something." From the Register of Connell comes the report that the inland empire is enjoying ideal winter weather. The entire apple crop of the Wenatchee valley has been picked and the most of it sold, and, judging from the price of the fruit in Seattle, the growers have money to burn. There is no longer any doubt in the mind of the editor of the White River Journal of the women being deeply interested in the political game as was demonstrated in the recent election held in Kent, when it declares every woman that had registered voted, except one, and she was out of the city. And now comes the Everett Labor Journal with, "James B. McNamara contrary to report is not a unionist nor did he eevr belong to a labor organization." Is that the "most unkindest cut of all?" Holeproof Hosiery for men, women and children. E. N. Brooks & Co., 1331 2d Ave. Friday, December 15, 1911. So quiet was the city election at Ridgefield that the Reflector felt called upon to remark, "We haven't any type small enough to signify how quiet the city election was. It was so quiet that the election board had a hard time keeping awake." Have your blind pigs been killed or have they got their eyes open? From the recent bank statements of Seattle it was observed that over two million dollars of the supposed circulating medium of this community had been put in bonds. No wonder Seattle is experiencing such a harvest of business failures just now. Leonidas Meritt, who took John D. Rockefeller to be "a kindly brotherly sort of a fellow," realized soon thereafter that he was even more so than a brother. Holeproof Hosiery for men, women and children. E. N.

Twice elected a member of the city council under the old convention system, but who was defeated as soon as the direct primary went into effect, seems to be the only man in all the 250,000 inhabitants except Col. Blethen that is willing to admit that Reginald H. Thomson had more power in shaping the affairs of the city than a member of the city council. Some one was heard to say one day this week that, Thomson may not have filled up all of the holes in Seattle, but there is no doubt that he furnished Col. Blethen with sufficient material to fill up the holes in the Times for a year or so more to come and all because the "colonel" would not be permitted to water his lawn out of hours.
