This paper just now is not prepared to argue for or against the adoption of single tax by the city of Seattle, but when you see the class of men who are fighting it you are inclined to believe it is not a bad thing. The P.-I.'s editorial one day this week against the single tax amendment was almost convincing until the owners of those valuable tracts of real estate, from which such large sums for tax purposes are annually raised unaimously approved of the thoughts and ideas advanced by the editorial. It seldom ever happens that even rich people cry to be given an opportunity to bear the burdens of the poor, and if the rich of this city are really advocating such then truly is the milennium dawn now at hand and neither side need give this or any other subject any further consideration. The ground on which stands the Alaska block may be a thousand times more valuable than a lot in the suburbs, but how about the hundreds of acres of vacant lots all over the city, on which only a few cents taxation are paid? A number of persons each own more than a thousand acres within the city limits and one concern owns in the neighborhood of 5,000 acres within the city limits, and those vast acres bear a very small part of the city debt. It seems that it would not be a bad idea for those acres to bear a proportionate share of the city burden. This, however, is not a single tax argument, but from our view point a just and equitable argument that the lands of the city regardless of their owners bear the burden of taxation and each parcel share and share alike in the amount. LOOKINK OUT FOR NO.1. A city bank and trust department has been unanimously passed by the city council of Seattle to handle the city's funds and to look after the bonds of the city. In other words Seattle is going into the banking business. Another proposition before the city council is the establishment of a municipal paper for free distribution in which all of the city's legal notices must be published. With multiplied thousands of dollars always on hand the city ought to always be able to take care of her small bond issues. In other words if the city was doing its banking business in its own bank it could do business with herself as does any other banking house and advance the money to one department when it was needed. The banks of this city pay SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, JAN. 12, 1912. two per cent for the use of city deposits and take those deposits and buy city bonds for which they get seven per cent interest. If the city did her own banking business she could save herself five per cent interest on the deal and still let her surplus money out for 4 per cent interest. It costs the city of Seattle a hundred thousand dollars annually to have her ordinances and other legal notices published, when a municipal paper could be run and need not cost to exceed $20 per day, $120 per week, $480 per month and not to exceed $6,000 per year. Even if it should cost $10,000 per year the city would save at least $90,000 annually. A municipal paper would not in anywise interfere with any of the legitimate publications of the community though it would cut off the Blethen graft. The city could not do a more business-like thing than to establish a municipal paper for its own use. A MUNICIPAL TELEPHONE. The voters of Seattle have been given an opportunity to vote to establish a municipal telephone system and the Pacific States Telephone Company is uneasy lest the proposition carry, which would result in condemnation proceedings being begun against the Independent Telephone Company of Seattle and the same used by the city as a nucleus on which the municipal system would be built. The mere fact that the telephone trust is spending bushels of money to head off the move and to throw as many stumbling blocks as can be found in its pathway is sufficient evidence that, the stockholders of the trust are convinced that the worm is about to turn and they stand a good chance of losing a big bunch of money, for if Seattle should adopt a municipal system other cities and towns of the Northwest would undoubtedly follow in her wake and it would only be a matter of time before the Pacific States system would be completely driven out of this territory at a loss of many thousands of dollars. So successfully have this system combatted the proposed municipal system idea that even the Seattle Star, who always agitates, and holds up trusts and trust magnates to public scorn and ridicule has shut up like a clam and indicates by its silence that, it has no further objection to the telephone trust continuing to rob the patrons of its system. Evidently the Star has a Vail over its head through which it is exceedingly difficult for it to either see or talk. The city of Seattle can operate a telephone system for fifty per cent less to the patrons than 2—REPUBLICAN—Jan 11—sal does the Pacific States Telephone Company and no one was better aware of that fact than John C. Lawrence, a member of the public service commission, when he permitted the Independent to increase its rates, knowing as he did the system was owned by the Pacific States. Do your duty and vote for a municipal telephone system the same LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 45. as you did for water and light systems and you will get just as good results from it as you did from both the water and the light system you voted Seattle to inaugurate. POLITICAL DISTURBERS. Democracy seems no less lacking for an internal disturber than does Republicanism. Bryan and Woodrow Wilson today are giving the Democrats of the country far more concern so far as the success of their party at the polls next November is concerned than is President Taft himself. It is no less a fact that Roosevelt and La Follette are worrying the Republicans a hundred times more than the Democratic nominee. Roosevelt, so say those who admire him, intends to whip the Republican party to a frazzle duds and go. If on the other hand Bryan does not hesitate to announce that there is no success in store for Democracy unless Bryanism prevails throughout its organization. If we are an independent people in thought and action it's giving a good deal of leeway to two men to permit them to be the whole show—master and clown. If Col. Roosevelt is not satisfied with what the Republican party does let him pick up his dudes and go. If on the other Col. Bryan objects to his party's action let him get out. Bryan says Roosevelt has stolen his thunder as to public policies. If in that he be correct, since he, Bryan, is such an ardent patriot, it is suggested that he permit Roosevelt to also adopt him, and then the brace might be able to run the country between them without friction. This hero worshiping of Roosevelt and Bryan is puerile on the part of the citizens of the United States and seem to indicate that the whole aggregation of citizenship is made up of toadies subject to the will of a domineering master. Script—that wonderful independent journalist—is still having his string of papers support all Democratic candidates and denounce all Republican ones. He is independent—only he is a Democrat. Only death can prevent President Taft from making a fight to succeed himself, so Taft himself makes bold to announce. That ought to hold T. R. for a while. One of Uncle Sam's most notable sea captains, in the person of Robley D. Evans, took pass ports last Wednesday across the dark waters that lead to the great beyond. Admiral Evans was a most remarkable man and with a still more remarkable career. A good clean business man for mayor of Seattle is the "desideratum," as argues the P. I., but tell us, pray, in what business has the P. I.'s candidate for mayor ever engaged except that of office holding? Convict Morse should have sent the Warden a Christmas present instead of offering to divide up his winnings in his Wall Street gamblings and then perhaps things would have been better for Morse. POLITICS AND POLITICIANS William Jennings Bryan went down for the count at the quadrennial meeting of the National Democratic Committee held in Washington City last Monday and Tuesday. The committee is controlled by the trust element of the Democratic party and for that reason Mr. Bryan got no more than he might have expected. But inspite of his defeat Mr. Bryan is the biggest man in his party from the standpoint of the voters and if the trust element overrides the wishes of the progressive element and name a trust candidate for president then at the behest of Mr. Bryan the rank and file of the Democrats of the North will do nothing to bring about the election of such a candidate. The committee after spending the most of the time trying to smother Bryanism fixed the date of the next convention June 18th and to convene in Baltimore. James W. Bothwell, city comptroller, on learning the finance committee of the city council refused to certify the vouchers for checking the recall petition, declared that unless the committee came through he would certify to the petition and the recall of Blaine and Wardall would be on. If you can do it now and feel you are doing right why did you not do it at first? Did you do as you did at first in order to favor some one? Did you do the people at the behest of Blaine and Wardell? If you did they served you right by doing you. He that diggeth a ditch for his neighbor is deserving of himself falling therein. Officers of the loy should themselves obey the law and turn not to the right or to the left for friend or foe. If you thought the petition legal you should have sent it through and let the interested parties fight it out in the courts. As it now looks you sacrificed every name on that petition and all you asked for what you did was the pay for yourself and your men. Charles S. Reed, superintendent of the penitentiary at Walla Walla has filed his report with the governor as to his junketing trip to India, which cost the state about $1,000 and the report contains nothing in the way of information that could not have been gotten out of the consular reports regularly and periodically issued. It was a mere pleasure trip for Mr. Reed at the state's expense. It is a well known fact that the United States can not raise and manufacture jute within 100 per cent as cheaply as can India and if jute bags were admitted into this country free of duty they would not cost half as much as they now do, all of which Mr. Reed and Gov. Hay knew before the trip was made. Gov. Hay has withdrawn the state convicts from state road building, which would have been an everlasting benefit to the state to have them fide about Walla Walla making grain bags at a dead loss to the taxpayers. If the convicts at Walla Walla would be put at road building and manufacturing shoes, clothes and other things used in the state institutions they would not onl ybe of service to the state, but would at the same time be learning a useful trade or occupation. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN S AND POLI Will E. Humphrey, representative in Congress from the first district of Washington, hastened to the White House one day this week to announce to the President that, the state of Washington, owing to a recent change of sentiment, would send a Taft delegation to Chicago. Humphrey may be correct, because the daily paper triumvirate has willed it, but if a Taft delegation goes to Chicago there is grave danger of a Democratic delegation going to Washington to the sixty-third Congress. Mr. Humphrey's informants as to the political situation must have been Senator John L. Wilson, Thomas [Name not visible] WESLEY L. JONES Who the Politicians Hope Will Take a Federal Judgeship. Burke and Sammy Perkins, all of whom are now in Washington City. The Seattle Republican has no objections to Taft getting the Chicago delegation, but it is of the opinion that a majority of the voters of the state are not of a like opinion and that La Follette would be endorsed if the majority was given an opportunity to express themselves on the subject. Representative Humphrey is being considered as Judge Donworth's successor, and, it is reported, he can have the job if he likes, and he is inclined to like. In last year's campaign Humphrey got an awful jolt and he is not sure but even a worse one awaits him this year, and by accepting this appointment he will dodge a bad drubbing. Should he resign there would be a mad scramble for his place and Seattle might have so many strong candidates that an outside man would cop it and thereby rob Seattle of all representation in Congress. Hiram Charles Gill has filed for mayor and at once donned his fighting clothes. Should Gill be elected it would be a body blow below the belt to the recall movement. J. M. Frink is bitterly opposing the Bogue Civic Center plans. In this, however, he is January 12, 1912 not alone, "but," said one of the prominent men of Seattle, "has anything in the way of civic improvement ever been advocated for Seattle that might mean ten cents more taxation for Mr. Frink, but that he not only denounced the proposition, but branded those advocating it as grafters? If the improvement happened to enhance the value of some of his property without increasing the taxation Frink has been for it. There are few if any more wealthy men in Seattle than J. M. Frink, and yet every minute of his life is spent in fighting some purely imaginary foe or driving a bargain to increase his wealth." A. G. McBride writes, If reports be true, progressive state Republicanism is to receive a jolt at the hands of the radicals that is liable to make our "Teddy" and "Bobby" shed tears. The frame up is a fine one and its plausible look is my excuse for giving it to the public. It will be remembered that Senator Jones was offered a Federal Judgship in eastern Washington last year, and declined it. Had this appointment been for the western district, Senator Jones would no doubt have accepted the appointment. Since turning down this life long job, the senior Senator has concluded to move onto the west side and reports are that he has, or is about to dispose of his property on the east side with the intention of locating in Tacoma. It is now said, that the Senator will accept the appointment to the vacancy that will occur by the resignation of Judge Donworth. Senator Jones figures, and correctly too, that a life position on the bench is better than a doubtful chance of a reelection. But this isn't all. John L. Wilson, is to be appointed Senator, who will be endorsed by Col. Blethen and for this appointment, Gov. Hay will receive the support of the P.-I. and Times. And this isn't all. Parish will be Gov. Hay's candidate for mayor and comes not only to secure his election, but to build up a political machine with stand pat blood predominating. The appointment of Jones and Wilson are easy and the latter of course will last until the direct primary chooses a man. If this scheme works out all right, it is expected that the result will be to again put the radicals or standpatters in the saddle in this state. Will the people want to sacrifice all they have gained by progressive ideas in this state? James Patterson DeMattos, on returning from the office of mayor of Bellingham, said, "in this state named after George Washington, who never told a lie; in this state which gained a larger percentage than any American commonwealth in the last decade; in this state where within the next generation probably larger opportunities will develop than within any like area on the habitable globe it is estimated that within its larger cities combines are being made and hereafter Washington will be a government of the newspapers, by the newspapers and for the newspapers and their henchmen; that they will name our United States senators, our Governor and our Mayors, our State and Mun- January 12, 1912. icipal legislators; that “human insects’’ are schooled to do the bidding of this limited oligarchy, which controlling all the press franchises calculates it would be absolutely and supremely dominant. It is only a few weeks since in a neighboring city one news- paper was attempting to prove that the head of a rival paper should be in the penitenti- ary. Since then Damon and Pythias become back numbers and these two men are the “real thing.’’ What is the reason? George Donworth, United States district judge for Western Washington, has resigned and thereby made another vacancy, over which the politicians can scrap. Judge Don- worth is one of the ablest minded men that was ever elevated to the federal bench in the Northwest, and those who have prac- ticed under him say, he is just as fair and impartial as he is able. In returning to pri- vate practice it is more than probable that the old law firm of Piles, Donworth & Howe will be rehabilitated. The firm began to go to pieces when Piles went to the senate and Donworth went on the bench. H, 0. Fishback, state senator from Lewis county, is being urged to stand for the Re- publican nomination for state treasurer and Barkus is willing. While in the banking business he learned how to keep all he got and that having become a second nature to him, if elected state treasurer, the whole of the state’s fund might stick to his fingers and he be unabe to shake it off. Then again since he has gotten a taste of office holding the desire seems to grow on him. Tf the tax payers of the state would be wise they would avoid electing persons to office, who do noth- ing but seek some kind of a pubic office. Mr. Fishback may be on the square, but he is entirely too office hungry to look good to me. Orville Billings of Tacoma seems to have experienced a vision, from which he learned that Orville, has been designated by Him that ruleth the universe as the man: to -straighten the tangle web in which the pol- iticians of the state have become entangled, and to that end he has announced his eandi- dacy for governor on the Republican ticket. “The old time Republicanism is his platform and he is against all the modern reforms. As to the vote he will get it’s hard to say, but the story of Ben Butler and Charles A. Dana might throw some light on that point. y will get one million yotes,’’ said Butler when running for president on an Abe Lincoln platform, ‘‘There is no doubt of it. Your own vote will be 1 and it will only require a slight twist of the wrist to add enough ciphers to your one to make it a million,” replied Dana. It is suspected that Mr. Bill- ings is looking for an appointment. C. T. Hutson, for the past four years dep- uty U. S. district attorney, has resigned to take effect February Ist. He will continue to reside in Seattle, Mr. Hutson prior to moving to Seattle to fill the above deputy- ship lived in Connell, Washington, and from there was elected to the state senate.

He will continue his partnership with Ballinger, Reynolds & Hutson with offices in the Pioneer block. This makes another vacaney over which the politicians will serap. Clark J. Savage, a state house parasite, has announced his intention of running for state land commissioner. Thus far every one who has announced his or her intention of running for a state office is a state treas- ury parasite, who seems to be afraid to go ie a et 4M Pei b TARTS r ee uca . nt RS i 5 , ee CHARLES S.

Should Judge Gay make a fight for the place he would have a long lead over any other applicant in view of the fact the daily press combine of Western Washington would support him and Senator Jones would not oppose him. Despite the fact Hiram Charles Gill made ugly charges against him for political effect he is a very popular judge and will be overwhelmingly re-elected to succeed himself in case he is not named for the above position. For four years he was United States district attorney in Seattle and made a splendid record. The Seattle Republican publishes legal notices, gives good service and very reasona- ble in its charges.

Of course Andrew Carnegie had never heard of the Sherman law and all because he instructed’ his attorney to not tell him about laws foolish legislators passed to inter- fere with his and others’ money making. If James A. Moore should come back as he now promises to do, it would be impossible to find a person in Seattle that ever uttered a hard word against him. This commercial diplomacy so common to Americans frequent- ly gets them into many comical situations. And now comes the hotel trust of Seattle and importunes the mayor and council to pass an ordinance preventing representa- tives of cheap lodging houses from erying for their houses at the depots and wharves. Persons who come to Seattle must go to the trust houses and be robbed and this is to be sanctioned by a city ordinance. If you have not sufficient money to put up at high priced hotels, stay away from Seattle is in effect the meaning of the movement.

McBRIDE Theodore has broke out again and threatens the courts with the initiative and several other things if they don't quit declaring laws unconstitutional. I could view Roosevelt's discomfiture with greater calmness if he had made high grade appointments to the federal judiciary while he was president. If the people want a more liberal construction of the constitution, change it, and the courts will be only too willing to give the people what they authorize, but as long as they are willing to live under an antiquated constitution, don't blame the courts for construing in according to its import and meaning, and in accordance with the construction given by other courts. A man who possesses the power and influence of a Roosevelt can do an awful amount of harm in stirring up the people to desire or demand of the courts a class of decisions not warranted by the constitution of the United States, the state, or their enactments. What the greatest cause for complaint is in my opinion, is the great difference of opinions by the various courts on the same questions. The uncertainty of the law. The cause for this is easily discovered. It can only in part be remedied. I went into the registration office one day ast week to see one of the employes for a few minutes on business. I did not wish to register then and thought I would return some other time for that important function. My advice to you is, if you don't want to register, stay away. When I appeared at the entrance door, two or three men asked me what ward I was in, and as I swelled up with pride answered "the fighting twelfth." I was thinking of Grant, Danner and a host of scrappers in the Twelfth that fought Crawford to a standstill and finally caused him to be kicked out of the street car business. Well, one of the doorkeepers led me down to the Twelfth ward counter and left me, and I passed on to find the man I was looking for, but my guide seeing me passing on ran down to where I was and herded me back to the counter. I slipped away when his back was turned and met a man I knew and enquired for the object of my mission. I was told I would find him on the floor below and I then tried to make my escape. At the exit door, a man, bigger than myself, stopped me and asked me for my card. I was about to hand him my professional paste board when he showed me a registration card and asked for mine. I tod him I had none. He looked and acted as though he thought I belonged to the Ananias club for the past seven years. As soon as I could regain my composure, I told him I hadn't registered, and didn't intend to, and he let me pass out into the corridor. While I was looking for the stairway, the man at the exit door rushed after me and rounded me back to the door. After I was put through the third degree, I made my escape. If all the city employes are as painstaking and diligent as the registration outfit, they earn their money and ought to be given a Thanksgiving turkey every six weeks. Telephone: 206 1144 AM. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The Collier's Weekly recently took a fling at the Supreme Court of the State of California for declaring the Schmitz indictment bad. Mr. Heney, the great prosecutor, probably wrote the instrument, and he, and Prof. Wigmore, the author of a work on evidence, have declared that the indictment was good. It should be remembered that Mr. Heney is a great prosecutor, that is, a great trial lawyer, but that don't say that he is equally as good as a criminal pleader. Now, if I am correctly informed, the point made against the indictment was this: The indictment charged that Eugene Schmitz committed certain acts, while the evidence showed that the acts charged were committed by Eugene Schmitz, as mayor of the city of San Francisco, that is, in a representative capacity. Such a pleading would not be held good in a civil action, much less, in a criminal prosecution. It is contended that the indictment was good, because no proof was necessary to show that Schmitz was mayor; that the court, under the California laws, took judicial notice that he was mayor of the city of San Francisco. The fallacy of that argument is apparent when we consider the rule that the allegations of a criminal pleading are not measured by the proof that must be offered. Indictments must frequently contain allegations that need not be proven by the prosecution. Some negative allegations for illustration. There are others. Then, there are some material matters that may be proven without a reference thereto in the pleading, but official, or representative character, is not one of them. It seems to me it would be more generous on the part of the court's critics if they would produce some authorities in support of their contention. I would like to be referred to some text book or decision that declares it to be the law that a man may be charged individually, when his offense is official corruption. Does such a pleading apprise the defendant of the nature of the charge against him? I don't think so. The petroleum area of Pennsylvania covers 2000 square miles and the gas area 2730 square miles, which excels all other states? The state of New York has a greater water power development than any other state? She operates 6,513 wheels, generating 885, - 862 horsepower. The average good potato crop in Germany amounts to 50,000,000 tons? The United States government paid $1,- 430,000 toward the education of Indians and but $100,000 toward the education of Negroes? Tripoli has 1,000,000 inhabitants made up of Arabs, Moors, Jews, Negroes and Europeans? The annual exports amount to $2,- 000,000 and the religion of the country is Mohammedan? DID YOU KNOW THAT EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS If your name is McNamara try to get it changed immediately if not sooner—it's a hoodoo. Democracy has gone South again and if Republicanism does not come North immediately if not sooner it will come to grief next November. Whether taxes in Seattle be single or double it takes all the owners of individual homes make to pay them and any change will be a relief. In declaring 1912 will be full and overflowing with "good times" Wall Street must have decided to do an unusual amount of charity and elymospnary work among the common people. President Taft is anxious to see Rooseveltism ground into powder, but those doing the job are warned not to say naughty things about "my dear Theodore" while they are doing it. Gov. West has an upon your honor convict camp and not a single man has tried to escape. There should be as much honor among convicts as among the unconvicted as the former got caught while the latter are still at large expecting to be caught. There at least remained a spark of manhood in Preacher Richason when he confessed to killing his sweetheart and not further deceive the other woman that believed him innocent. Richason, however, is no worse than hundreds of others, who commit the same crime, but are not caught. Jack Johnson and Jim Corbett are in a war of words over a proposal to Johnson to lay down and permit Jim to come back. The 3—REPUBLICAN—Jan 11—sal ..... former coolly declares while the latter hotly denies. The game seems to be made up of a rather dirty mess of poisoned pups. Merging the various Puget Sound electrical plants and street railway systems into one forty million dollar concern should neither be opposed or sanctioned by the people in general. If on the other hand the people have an eye to the future they will start at once to laying the foundation to owning similar plants and systems and operating them in the real interest of the people. Albeit the state of Georgia is so "dry" that her very bones rattle as she warbles, yet for Christmas cheer Macon Georgia received thirty-five carloads of whiskey. Other cities of the state did well in the purchase of liquid goods to greet the Prince of Peace, but Macon took the cake. Such prohibition is a snare and a delusion and if it does not work any better in Washington than it does in Georgia it will be a waste of time and money adopting it. ```markdown ``` fanuary 12, 1912. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Soft Lights from Life’s Other Side Anent the numerous lynchings of Negroes for alleged outraging of white women in the South a white woman has the following comment : Jessup, Ga., Jan. 4.—‘‘I suppose amid all this hue and ery of ‘Lynch ’em!’ ‘Ku-Klux ’em!’, the small voice of a dissenter will not be heard, or if heard will be shouted down as an alienist in the cause of Southern wo- manhood.

Look at the hordes of mulatto children swarming in the cities, the towns and even the country, and say how far is the white man responsible for conditions. If he stoops to the black man’s woman, what then when the black man dares to lift lustful eyes to the white man’s woman? Can the Anglo-Saxon exter- minate the children of his own blood, half breed though they be? “Let him who is without a blemish cast the first stone.’’ Accomplish by willing interest on the white man’s part—brute force by the Negro —the result is the same, outraged Nature and degradation of our Southern blood. Then if riot, bloodshed and extermination must come, in the name of justice, let it be by men who are fit guardians of the South’s honor. I have expressed myself at considerable length, so must omit it, as possibly it would benefit no one. Yours for the South’s honor and justice. VARA A, MAJETTE. —Advoeate.

At the time Mr, Allen was being consulted the lit- tle jail had not been in use for a long time, except as a storage warehouse. When his Negro client stated the facts, Mr. Allen saw it was a weak case, and that it would be easy to acquit the prisoner, and replied: ‘‘I can get him out all right, Sam, and it will cost you $25, but I wont’ turn a wheel until you go out and raise the money’’ —that being the customary way of securing fees from the average negro. Sam happened to be a thrifty negro of the Booker Washington type. He had that very day sold a farm for a large sum and had the money in his pocket. He pulled out a roll from his trousers pocket large enough to choke a horse, and began to peel off a $20 bill, when Mr. Allen interrupted: ‘‘Look here, Sam! Is your brother in the little red briek jail or the big jail?’’ “‘He’s in de big jail, Mr. Allen,’’ replied Sam. © “Oh, I thought you meant the little jail,’”’ said Mr. Allen. ‘‘It’ll take $50 to get him out of the big jail.’’ And Sam paid the fee cheerfully. 5 been filed with the clerk of said court.
