Seattle Republican

The Seattle Republican Single Copies, 10 Cents. Who Will Be Mayor of Seattle is as much a puzzle to the Seattle citizen today as it was a month ago, and that too despite the fact the contest has narrowed down to Gill and Cotterill. During the past week the Cotterill forces have rallied round their standard bearer and, be it said to their credit, have done splendid work. On the other hand the Gill followers realizing their strong lead have given themselves no great uneasiness. The Seattle Republican is not willing to make a numerical prediction as to the outcome of next Tuesday's election, but it can not see how Gill can be defeated. Should Cotterill get three-fourths of Parish's vote—9,000—and two-thirds of Wells' vote—6,500—and hold the vote he got—14,500—he would have about 30,000 votes. Gill will certainly hold the 24,500 he got in the primary, and if he gets 3,250 from Parish and 3,350 from Wells, it would give him upwards of 31,000, thus leading Mr. Cotterill by more than 1,000. Of the registered vote 64,500 there were over 10,000 truant and for Mr. Cotterill to beat Mr. Gill he must be able to rally a heavy per cent of that vote, which is hardly probable, though possible. The Gill people on the other hand believe he will get 60 or 75 per cent of the Parish vote and thereby increase his totals at the expense of Cotterill. There is another phase of the situation that has not as yet come to the surface in this campaign and that is that the wet and dry fight will measure arms in the Gill-Cotterill contest, and the latter's success or near success will mean a hot wet and dry fight in King county at the first opportunity. War with Mexico seems to be inevitabe on the part of the United States, not that there is any real excuse for it, but to quiet those belligerent natives, that they may conduct a less turbulent republic. They have been scrapping among themselves for some years, but they resent to a man any interference on the part of Uncle Sam, although the factions hatch up their attacks on each other in rendezvous within the United States. The fact of it is the Mexicans are being preyed upon by other nations and especially by adventurers from the United States and a great deal of the recent trouble down there is traceable to the desire on the part of the Mexicans to drive the Americans out of the country. However the periodical revolutions in the country not only disturb the business of Mexico, but likewise of this country and we would not be surprised if within the next decade the United States will be compelled to annex the country to protect herself. Germany is "spiling" to get her fangs fastened about the country and should she be successful Uncle Sam's Panama Canal would not be worth ten cents to him. If the American Telephone and Telegraph Company has as many $10,000 positions, as SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1912. President Vail of that company declared it has, then the manager of the Seattle station must be drawing down something like $25,000 annually for his services, judging from the many shrewd tricks he has turned since he has been in charge of the Seattle plant, on both the individual patrons and the municipality, and he is truly worth every cent of it. Not satisfied with the enormous sum his delinquent penalty fine brings to the company every month he by stealth and deception, so thinks the mayor and the board of public works, has successfully combined the Sunset and the Independent telephone companies without the consent of the city officials. It's those men who can go out and get the money for the masters hid away in caves and retreats that are valuable, and if the resident telephone directors are guilty of having combined the telephone companies by stealth and deception, as is reported then it is little short of highway robbery, for if done at all it was done with the view of defrauding the city out of her interest in the Independent Telephone Company. The trick was hastened because it was believed that a municipal telephone system would be voted at the next election. If one will play an underhanded game in one instance he will do it in more and once these companies become one then the people will be robbed from a to z. If therefore Mr. Seattlite you wish to protect yourself against this gigantic telephone monopoly then cast your vote for a municipal telephone system. The Southwest gets the next Republican state convention, which the committee has decided will be held May 15th. If Aberdeen treats the Republican delegates as well as she did the delegates to the Press Association held there last August the delegates will be delighted at the work of the state central committee. The convention will contain 668 delegates and based on one delegate for every 200 votes cast for S. G. Cosgrove. [Name] ALPHEUS F. HAAS. Vote for him to succeed himself as he is right on all public questions. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 VOLUME XVIII, NUMBER 52.

The appointment for Douglas and Grant counties and for Stevens and Pend d'Orielle counties is to be worked out from the precinct polls in 1908 election, which have not yet been obtained. Three counties have been divided since the 1908 election. A FAKE DIRECTORY R. L. Polk and Co. are again arranging to publish a "directory" of Whitman county. This firm has been engaged in this business for several years, but its directory is a fake, so far as being an authentic list of the residents of Whitman county towns is concerned. No effort is made to take a census of the towns and get the names of the inhabitants. This was attempted several years ago but since that time the same list of names, the same addresses and the same occupations have appeared in each succeeding issue. Many of the people enumerated have died, moved away, or changed address, but their names appear in each succeeding issue of the directory as they did in the first issue. In some cases in the 1911 directory the names of women appeared as they did in the first issue. These women had married, changed name and address, and some of them had families, but the 1911 directory published their maiden names and addresses as was done in the first issue. A directory that would "direct" would be a great convenience to Whitman county people, but an alleged directory, which is only a fake, gotten up for advertising purposes, is a nuisance and should not be patronized. If this firm would take a complete census of these towns each year and get the names of all the inhabitants in each, the directory would be a good thing, but they do not do this.—Colfax Commoner. This alleged directory company seems to fake every community that it does business in and therefore Whitman county is no exception to the rule. Its Seattle directory is simply a delusion and a snare and it's not right one time in ten. It seeks to please the real estate men by boosting Seattle's population, but when you refer to it you soon discover it is a fraud on its face. The man, woman or child that pays a cent of money to the Polk Directory fraud belongs to that class of citizens who have been styled, "a fool and his money soon part." POLITICS AND POLITICIANS N. R. Ayers, who hoped to jolly the voters of Seattle into voting his company (on paper) a fortune for nothing, will soon learn that a subsidized press can not lead the people very far. Rev. Adna W. Leonard is a splendid pulpit orator, but he seems to make little or no headway at the political game. Abe Ruef's failure to come through gives former Mayor Schmitz a clean bill of sale from the trial court, but it looks tough for Ruef. Miles Poindeter is reported putting in the most of his time doing gallery stunts among the Lawrence strikers instead of looking after the commercial interest of the state of Washington. W. H. Paulhamus of Sumner is one of the pronounced Roosevelt men of the state and so strong is the Roosevelt sentiment that the same sentiment may make Paul governor if he so desires. John G. Pierce deserves an election and acording to the vote of the primary he will be elected. He has done well since he has been a member of the council and he should be continued in office. It would be a burning shame to elect Joe Smith in preference to Pierce. Emma Hackett has been granted a divorce from John Hackett, but she must pay him $50 per month alimony, which is said to be the first instance on record where the court has ordered a woman to pay her former husband alimony. The statement is not correct as the divorced wife of Trusten P. Dyer, formerly state senator from King county, received alimony from his wife by order of the court. Tom Alderson, who for the past ten years has been congratulating himself as being one of Seattle's foremost politicians, took a try out at the game in the late municipal primary contest, and discovered that the place he really occupies in the public mind, is about as insignificant as a human being can possibly occupy. Tom Murphine will probably experience the same fate when he runs for congress next fall. Champ Clark, a Democratic candidate for president, is 62 years old today and he is having the first real birthday party of his life, and to help him make merry on the occasion he has caused to be published in a Washington City paper an invitation making welcome everybody to his feast, not even barring the much despised Negro, which is so common to real Democrats. Champ is the first Democrat that has sense enough to break away from his traditional Negro prejudice and openly bid for the Negro vote and it will do him a lot of good. When the Democratic party as a whole adopt Champ Clark's idea then and not until then will the Negro vote divide up in politics. George F. Cotterill is appealing to the women of Seattle to elect him mayor irrespec- THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN tive of what the men do. Are you, Mr. Cotterill, so much of a molly coddle that you are wholly unable to make any headway among the men and hope to win an important election through sickly sentiment and by appealing to hysterical women? If you are a man fight like a man and fight with men. There are lots of men who are going to vote for you, providing you defend yourself like a man and not like a hysterical grandma. Robert M. La Follette gives it out, "I still have hopes of winning the presidential nomination." Well we have fears that his hopes are suspended on broken sticks. We suspect that if Bobby had have had the remotest idea that Teddy was going to steal his thunder he would not have insurged at all. William Jennings Bryan, the matchless one, is in Seattle on anl alleged lecture tour, but dollars to doughnuts he is on an awakening tour in his own subtle presidential interest and is lecturing on the side at so much per in order to lessen traveling expenses. Bryan is a brilliant talker and whenever he talks, whether in his or the other fellow's interest, he sees to it that he gets the coin for it. John E. McManus, at one time active in the politics of the state and senator from Whatcom county died last Saturday. In later years he has been more or less indisposed, but he as well as his friends had reached the conclusion that he was recuperating. He was on the streets all day Friday and ten minutes before he was stricken he was in a happy frame of mind. He elaves a host of personal friends and business associates to mourn his sudden and to an extent rather unexpected death. James P. Agnew, who always manages to handle the money, has been employed by the "special interests" of the city to fight Albert J. Goddard's relection, and to that end has opened up palatial headquarters and has substituted John Schram for Goddard. This jim agnew is one of the most insignificant creatures in the form of a human being and can always be counted upon to turn a political trick, if supplied with unlimited coin. He it was that distributed thousands of dollars of Thomas Burke's money when he knew Burke had no more show of winning than a snowball in flying through Hades. Goddard has stood by the best interest of the city and every loyal and patriotic citizen should vote for him next Tuesday. James D. Lowman, president of the New Chamber of Commerce of Seattle, and in many other respects a promoter and builder of the Northwest, is home from Washington, where he has been for the past two months in the interest of Alaska legislation. Mr. Lowman is one of Seattle's most loyal advocates and is not selfish in his work. W. D. Hofius, one of Seattle's foremost businessmen, died last Tuesday. Prior to his death he had enjoyed fairly good health, but was overcome with heart failure, from which Friday. March 1, 1912 he never rallied. He accumulated a fortune during his business career. His life was spent apparently in the endeavor to get together a vast fortune and he succeeded right well. Thomas B. Sumner of Everett, who was seen on the streets of Seattle one day this week, is watching with considerable interest the outcome of the political fight in Seattle, is of the opinion that, it was a political mistake on the part of the P.-I. to support Cotterill in preference to Gill. In speaking about the Roosevelt boom he said, "In my opinion Teddy is in line for a political frost bigger than Grant got, when he came out for a third term. The country may rush upon Roosevelt, that it may only be permitted to touch the hem of his garment, but I do not believe it." Col. Robertson, editor and proprietor of the Republic of North Yakima, was doing the big city last Wednesday. When asked what he thought of the Roosevelt boom he replied: "I no longer relish doses of bull con and do not propose to take any more of them unless I can not help myself. Chasing after false goods neither sounds nor looks good to me." The colonel is one of the big ones of the state and his visit to Seattle like that of Sumner and Lesh may have had more or less political significance. Dan E. Lesh of North Yakima was visiting Seattle the past week. He looks the same Dan Lesh that he did when he was a mighty political power in the Republican politics of the state. In the fourth and fifth legislatures of the state he was a state senator from Yakima county. His presence in Seattle at this particular time might have had some political significance. Fred B. Chandler, the sissy seeking the office of comptroller, has no more show of winning the office than has some fellow who was not even a candidate and he does not deserve it. E. J. Brown, the Socialist candidate for corporation counsel, after all is going to get a good many straight Republican votes, not that they know anything detrimental to Bradford, but they think that that particular office has been handed down from sire to son quite too long and they will vote for a change. J. Will Shafer, one of the brightest legal minds in the Northwest, who is the state law librarian at Olympia, was among the passing throng in Seattle this week. When he is not on duty for the state he devotes his idle moments to briefing difficult cases for attorneys not accessible to libraries, and out of this he realizes more than the salary paid him by the state. J. D. Dean, president of the King County Weekly Publishers Association, has issued a call for a special meeting of the Association Saturday, March 9th, at 11 o'clock a. m., which will be held in Seattle at the Commercial Club rooms. LIBRARY EDWARD J. BROWN Candidate for Corporation Counsel Elmer E. Todd, U. S. district attorney, will be relieved from duty as soon as the Tacoma census fraud cases will have been disposed of. Mr. Todd is requested to clear up these particular cases because they might embarrass B. W. Corner, who has been practically decided upon as his successor by the Taft administration. Corner, however, has not been named as yet, and, since there is always a chance for a slip between the cup and the lip, he might, on account of his loyalty to the "Colonel" get the "mit." John F. Miller, former mayor of Seattle, may be for Gill in preference to Cotterill for mayor, but his last Saturday evening speech did Mr. Gill more harm than good. Persons with sound judgment can hardly conceive of Mr. Miller harmonizing his speech last Saturday for Mr. Gill with his speeches on the recall against Mr. Gill. Really Gill must have wondered in which speeches did he tell the truth. Moritz Thomsen, who for the past two months or more has been sojourning in Europe, returned to Seattle last Monday evening. He reached the city just in time to have a brief talk with his friend and business associate W. D. Hofius before he breathed his last. Mr. Thomson has been heavily interested in farming and mining lands in Mexico, but it is reported that his company has sold its holdings there for five million dollars. He is one of Seattle's leading business men and delights in fostering infant industries for the future greatness of the city and country. John Barrett says: "If the United States would experience the largest benefits possible to its foreign commerce from the Panama canal it will make this inter oceanic WATERWAY AS FREE TO THE SHIPS OF ALL NATIONS AS ARE THE TWO OCEANS WHICH IT WILL CONNECT. ALBERT J. GODDARD Albert J. Goddard has been frequently criticized by first one of the daily papers and then another, and in fact he has never been a newspaper favorite except with The Seattle Republican, who had reasons to know he was as white a man as ever tread shoe leather. He has exposed graft and special interest in the affairs of the city and for that he has been severely criticized, but newspaper criticism did not swerve him from his sworn purpose and he fought on and on in the interest of the tax payers, the special interest men and the grafters to the contrary notwithstanding. His efforts were rewarded with coming in under the ropes in the recent primary race second and his friends hope that he will do equally as well in the general election. In the recent fight he let things take their own course and did little or nothing to foster his candidacy, not even opening up campaign headquarters. He worked on the theory that the people knew him and knew exactly what he stood for and aside from the fact that he let them know he was a candidate to succeed himself he made no further effort to convince the voters that he should be supported by them, and that is the way all honest men should do. If after serving the people as has Mr. Goddard done, he would have to make a house to house canvass for votes to be re-elected he did not deserve the nomination. While he did not get the newspaper support that he thought he was entitled to, yet he has no criticis mto make and again throws himself on his record in the council for election or rejection. If at any time he has done anything not in keeping with the best interest of the city then he openly declares he does not merit your vote and you should vote for the other fellow, but if the fight he as made from time to time since he has been in the council to protect the tax payers from the grafters and the special interest men meets your approval then he hopes you will give him your vote. His actions in the past is a mirror of his actions in the future should he be re-elected, though it will at no time lead him into doing anything that will injure the credit of the city.

The increase of the trade of the United States through a free canal will be so much greater than that through a toll canal that this increase in the first year would EQUAL THE REVENUE FROM TOLLS FOR FIVE YEARS, while in ten years the increase resulting from a free canal over that of a toll canal would pay nearly twice over the orig- Teddy the Terrible has gone and done it and now the devil will be to play and Taft will have the time of his life to save enough of his bacon to remember he also ran. It is the consensus of opinion that Theodore Roosevelt will carry every western state for the convention and capture enough of the eastern states to make Taft look like thirty cents with a hole in it. There is hardly any doubt in the mind of the person who thinks, but that Taft is one of the ablest presidents the United States has ever had, but he is no leader. Instead of moulding public opinion he does a commendable act and sits down to wait for the public to pass judgment on it, while Roosevelt does a commendable act and instead of sitting down and waiting for the public to commend him for it he leads them up to approving of his acts and that too in a very short time after he has done it. It can be said without fear of successful contradiction that Theodore Roosevelt is the most popular man in all the world just now and has been for the past ten years. In all that time he has done nothing either as a public servant or a private individual, which did not seem to meet public approval, and but add another brilliant star to his already illustrious crown. Possessing as he does the utmost confidence of the people it is perfectly natural that he listen to their appeals and say to them, if you want to nominate me for the presidency of the United States I will decline the honor. He is perhaps the only man the Republicans could put up at this time that would have any show of winning and we believe the Republican leaders all over the country see the hand writing on the wall, and will desert Taft like rats do a sinking ship and seek refuge on the rocks of Roosevelt. The only man in the Democratic party, since the recent withdrawal of William Jennings Bryan from the presidential race, that could possibly give Mr. Roosevelt anything like a battle is Woodrow Wilson and he does not seem to have one chance in a hundred of getting enough convention votes to nom- inal cost of the canal, or fifty times the cost of annual operation. Having recuperated his fallen fortunes by raising the price of tea Sir Thomas Lipton thinks he has quite enough money to again challenge for the American cup. In other words he has teaed up.

The presumption is that iastead of the Democrats nominating a conservative man of the Woodrow Wilson stripe they will now swing to Harmon or some other interest man and nominate him with the view of getting the corporation influence, which always has been more or less anti-Roosevelt, and that particular man at this writing seems to be Judge Harmon. The state of Washington, in our opinion. ```markdown ``` EDITORIAL With the English government operating the telephone and telegraph lines and making preparations to take over the coal mines, it begins to look as if a mild form of Socialism has already been accepted as well as adopted by the public officials of that country, and we suspect the captains of industry in this country will soon be declaring England the home of the cranks.

A more remarkable man on the whole never lived in the Northwest than Jacob Furth, and time will prove the truthfulness of this assertion. Friday, March 1, 1912. "Aunt Della, an octogenarian relative of President Taft seems to be too old to think clearly on the presidential situation. Bond voting in Seattle has become such a fad that we suggest that the most of it be cut out of the coming election. At a Socialist convention recently held in New York delegates from thirty-four of the leading colleges of the country participated. But that is no argument in favor of Socialism as damphooldom is as often found in college classes as in farmers' frolics. Chasing instead of receiving the nomination is the attitude Roosevelt has been pictured by the cartoonist. A thing that's not worth working for is not worth having, so lay too, Ted. When Uncle Sam spanks Sen Yor's Rio Grand until Mexico will need no more rain Jacob Furth has been selected as president of the recently organized electrical company, which combines all of the properties of Stone and Webster in the Puget Sound country. This is no news to the general public because the daily papers have already given this wide publicity, but it is a word of comment on the personel of Mr. Furth that prompts this article. In spite of adverse criticism Jacob Furth has slowly but surely become the most important personage, from a business and commercial standpoint, of any man in the Northwest. He is now a man beyond the three score milestone, and yet he is as active in business as a man in his early forties, and his investments are made with the same eye to business as when he first laid his plans to open the doors of the Puget Sound National Bank. Newspapers large and small have pounded him on the back, when they wanted to attract attention to themselves or bolster up a ditry game and we do not remember of a campaign that has ever been made in Seattle, but that some reformer did not solemnly announce, if the opposition won Jacob Furth would be given a deed in fee simple to the municipality. But Jacob Furth remembered the old adage, "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad," and he moved on in the even tenor of his way, without affirming or denying any of the allegations or accusations, until today, in a financial way, he stands head and shoulders over any other man in the city. Some time ago we inquired of Mr. Furth why he did not retire from active business and travel and rest the balance of his life." "For me to retire from active business would mean my almost immediate death. Nothing could give me a hundredth part the pleasure and comfort as close attention to business with short intervals of rest and recreation," he briefly replied. It is almost miraculous that a man of Mr. Furth's years should be made the active head of a gigantic corporation, battling day by day for business, and each day in his office contending with men in the prime of life and apparently as well fitted to drive a shrewd business deal as he. He does all this and at the same time keeps his 'tother hand well on the throttle of the business THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN for six months there may be peace in the south. It must give Gov. Hay great pain to see a banker go to the penitentiary judging from the wiggling he is doing to keep H. M. Boon the convicted banker out of the pen. A banker is no better than a baker so let him take his medicine. Is it not almost time for the daily papers to name some one else for Judge Donworth's place on the federal bench? That Tong war among the Chinese seems to be more than the usual war of words. Back to the farm has become very popular with poor city folk, but at present wages they will die of old age before they can save up enough money to pay their ways back to the farm. "MUTT AND JEFF." "Mut and Jeff," those two lovable characters, whose adventures have been the course of endless amusement for old and young for some time, are to be with us soon. This time they are not to display their mischievous and hilarious spirit through the columns of the newspapers, but are to appear in the flesh and blood. Their advent will of course be through the medium of a new and original musical comedy in three acts, bearing naturally the title of "Mutt and Jeff." The offering will be the attraction at the Seattle Theatre next week, opening with the matinee Sunday. "Mutt and Jeff" is replete with original ideas, catchy music, pretty and fascinating young women who are talented and capable comediennes, singers and dancers who understand their business. "Mutt and Jeff" are a pair of irresistible funny fellows and their antics should fill the theatre with resonant laughter throughout the run of the comedy. Officers E. L.
