Publisher SUSIE REVELS CAYTON, . . . Associate THE SUICIDE ROUTE. The editor of Appeal to Reason committed suicide a few days ago and now every publisher and his brother are out with an explanation of why he did it. The long and short of it, from our way of thinking is, he did it because he was crazy. Persons commit suicide when they no longer retain their reason. May, perhaps, he fancied ere he did so he would be better off by being out of the world, and perhaps he was correct, but what he thought and what made him think as he did, the living know not. The editor of the Times charges the rash act to his mental and moral degeneracy, and tries to prove his point. If those things were responsible for persons committing so rash an act, we wonder why the editor has not committed suicide years and years ago. Despite the fact thousands of persons in and about Seattle read the Times then why does he remain silent under such a galling fire? We, however, do not take much stock in the retribution theory, for when one is mean and degenerate enough to be real bad, such an one really thinks he is good, and if he is criticised for his ways he really believes he is being abused. Despite all of the cussedness the editor of the Times has been guilty of since he has lived in Seattle and before he came here, yet he flatters himself as being a dispenser of justice and mercy, and for that, the good God has permitted him to prosper over the efforts of his fellow men. Suicide is a disease of the brain that the living can not successfully diagnose and we suspect that the dead who does so is so absolutely free from all earthly cares that he has no desire to do so. Will E. Humphrey, representative in Congress from the First Washington district, in a speech before the Methodist Brotherhood of the First M. E. Church of this city, made the prediction that, Vancouver, B. C., instead of Seattle would become the metropolitant city of the Northwest if American coastwise steamships had to pay portage through the Panama Canal. A vessel flying a foreign flag could load at New York or some other Atlantic Coast City and bring its cargo through the canal on the same footing as our coastwise vessels and unload at Vancouver and then distribute the cargo without duty to United States cities and towns. He feels certain that the canal will prove a detriment to Seattle in particular and the Northwest (United States) in general unless Uncle Sam's ships are sent through the canal free. Ernest Lister, on the face of the election returns, has been chosen governor of the state, but the friends of Governor Hay are not satisfied of the accuracy of the returns and will probably ask the legislature to have a recount of the votes. If they have any reasonable grounds on which to base their demand then, despite the fact that, it will cost the taxpayers $100,000, the recount should be had. It's of little concern to the average voter and taxpayers whether Lister or Hay is governor, but they are deeply interested in honest elections and fair and impartial counts. If, therefore, either Lister or Hay has cause to think and verily can make a respectable showing in that direction that, he has not been given a square count, the expense to the contary notwithstanding a re-count should be ordered. An honest count should not be opposed by any one regardless of who may win in the final outcome. J. C. Gregory, of the Bothell Sentinel, is threatening to re-buy the Auburn Argus, his first love, and if he does he will make an effort to completely corral the legal publications of the country. VOLUME XIV. NUMBER 36 PERSONALS The Seattle Republican would be glad to get a legal notice from you. Main 305 tells the tale. Billy Rupp only had to add a "ture" to his name to designate the name of the disease that put M. E. Hay out of office. Dr. Stewart and eight other quack doctors have recently felt the strong arm of the law and the feeling is still going on. John B. Gordon is one justice of the peace from a salary standpoint, that has the Superior court judge laid in the shade. One Vote Sampson will have to go to the Supreme Court to enjoy his legal right to a two-months' Superior court judgeship in King county. Honest Bob Hodge! Where in hell did we hear that name before? It must have been there as all avenues of escape were carefully guarded. Dr. Leonard's corroborated denial of an alleged attack on the order of Knights of Columbus on his part seems to leave some one in an awkward position. Mrs. John L. Wilson will not return to Seattle for some time. She is now in New York with her daughter, where she will remain for some months. Byron Phelps may be a Bull Mooser of the forever dye, but he has been a Republican so long that, it's hard for him to learn new tricks in his old age. Governor-elect Lister is absolutely correct in his statement that, "I was elected as much by Republicans as Democrats." Now, when he is governor, let him act like it. Ernest B. Herald recently married the widow of George Edward Adams and they are now on their honeymoon. Surely has Miss Cleary's lots fallen in pleasant places as the years go by. Howard D. Taylor's friends claim a majority of the members of the house favor his election. There are 48 Republican members and 48 Democrats and Bull Moose members and one Socialist. If the Bull Moose and Democrats should unite Mr. Socialist would simply be IT. Kenny Beaton may be able to convince Lister that, if he had not boosted Bob Hodge as hard as he did he, Lister, would not have been elected, and therefore, he, Beaton, should be Lister's private secretary and thereby become patronage distributor and thereby get "his dollar back." ```markdown ``` WOES OF THE NEWSPAPER MAN Original Cooperation. First Record in History of the Organization of the First Printers' Board of Trade. Said a primitive man as he sat in a tree, Where a wolf, seeking food, had caused him to flee: "Competition is fierce, I am tired of strife. A sabre-toothed tiger has eaten my wife. My children have gone the same way, one by one; The life I am leading is not any fun. "In front of his cave over there on the hill Is a man whom for weeks I've been trying to kill. If he sees I am helpless up here in a tree, It's a ten-to-one-shot he will kill and eat me. It's gotten my nerve, this competitive game I wish there was someway to alter the same." Now the man on the hill had not eaten that day, So, armed with a club, he had stolen away, And chance led him straight to the tree where the man Sat musing upon the competitive plan. "Ha! Ha!" he exclaimed, "here's some good easy meat; My wife and the children will now have a treat." Said the man in the tree, "Hold on! Over there In those rocks are a couple of cubs of a bear. It would not be safe to attack them alone, But together we'll strip them of hair, hide and bone. Their flesh is quite tender, for both there's enough— As for me, I am lanky and stringy and tough." Now the man from the hill was suspicious because The idea was opposed to competitive laws; But he finally consented, the bear cubs were slain And together the rivals went hunting again. Thus primitive man, with unbounded elation, Discovered the blessings of co-operation. Now, isn't it strange there should still be a man Who favors the ancient competitive plan? F. J. H., in Boston News Bureau. THE NEWSPAPER MAN. (By Hector Fuller.) Our eyes are thick for slumber and our brains are tired and stale; Nerves we have none to speak of, yet we never dare to fail. There are always cries for "copy," and they never cry in vain, For the Press's need is cruel and reeks not of our pain. 1. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SHE NEWSPA Through the endless summer evening when we should be with our wives, We are endlessly recording all the tales of other lives. We recount the deeds of heroes; there are new ones every day; Or are revelling in scandal for—about a teamster's pay. We greet the new-fledged statesman; self- important, great, elate; We warn the politicians what to do to save the state; We clink glasses with good fellows; yet we've got to keep our head For the scandals of the living and the virtues of the dead. There are some that seem to envy the positions that we hold, To think that our typewriters are like pens of beaten gold; For we still keep happy faces—though our homes we seldom see, And the smiles of wife and children are denied to such as we. But I guess we'll keep on going; take assignments; do the work; We may loaf, or drink, or gamble, but our tasks we may not shirk; For it's in our blood—the fever—and we die off one by one— But the Press goes on forever, for its work is never done. PRINTERS' PIE The make-up man in a rural weekly in British Columbia walked the floor most of the night with "Baby Darlint" in his arms, and next day mixed up items reporting an auction sale and a wedding ceremony. The description ran as follows: "Charlie Blank, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph J. Blank, was disposed of at public aution to Margaret Dash, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dash, of lot four, sixth concession, in the presence of eighty guests, including two mules and nine head of horned cattle. Rev. J. Binks tied the nuptial knot, averaging 1,200 pounds on the hoof. The beautiful home of the bride was very tasteful decorated with one set of harness, nearly new; before the ceremony Mendelssohn's Wedding March was given softly by twenty-one five-year old milch cows, looking perfectly charming in a light spring wagon, top buggy, open buggy and wheelbarrow. The groom is a well-known young man, popular in society circles of about thirty-eight Berkshire hogs, while the bride is an accomplished and talented teacher of a drove of Poland China shoats, pedigree furnished if desired. Among the many presents were one hundred bushels of potatoes, one drag harrow, hay fork, rope and pulleys, and other articles too numerous to mention. "The bridal party left on yesterday's boat on an extended trip, six months on approved note, four per cent off for cash." ```markdown ``` FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1912 AND THE PRINTER PIED TYPE ON WEDDING. The country editor has trials of various kinds of his own and some have worse troubles than others. An Arkansas man had written an article about a wedding that had occurred in his town and gave it to a printer to be set in type. The printer had been indulging to a limited extent in hydrant water, and he got the wedding article mixed up with a public sale notice and the whole thing appeared like this: Public Sale—William Jones, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Josiah Jones, was disposed of at public auction to Miss Lucy Anderson on my farm one mile east of Leonardville in the presence of seventy cows, including the following, to-wit: Seven mules, twelve head of Rev. Jackman tied the nuptial knot, with crinkly horns and one muley cow. The beautiful home of the bride was tastefully decorated with one Blackhawk corn planter, one sulky hay rake, one feed grinder, one set of double harness nearly new and just before the ceremony was pronounced the bride's sister played one Jersey cow fresh in the spring, carrying a large bunch of flowers in her hand and looking charming in one set of sleigh bells, six shocks of corn, three ricks of hay, one grindstone, Mouseline de soie, and trimmed with about ten bushels of wheat. The groom is a well known Durham bull, with ring in nose, and has always stood well with six Duroc hogs, while the bride is an accomplished driver with flowing mane and tail. Among the beautiful presents were two sets knives and forks, one steam engine, one riding plow, one wheelbarrow, go-cart, bob sled and other articles too numerous to mention. The bridal couple left for an extended honeymoon trip. Terms: Twelve months cash. Lunch will be served after the sale after which Mr. and Mrs. Jones will go to housekeeping in a hay-mow full of hay and two corn cribs in a cozy house near the corner of Main and chickenhouse close by. Colonel L. B. Bray, auctioneer. The newspaper man when he wants a little money tells through the columns of his paper that there are a number of his subscribers, in arrears and then when a fellow comes in from the country and pays his subscription the fact is often announced in the paper as though it were a rarity that any one paid his subscription. The merchant when he has a big bill to meet often announces that he is to have a slaughter sale, selling goods below cost. The doctor when he is short operates on some poor fellow with a heap of money. No business or profession is without its resources for gathing in the coin when it is absolutely necessary to raise the needful. Not even the minister of the gospel is without the means at his command of buying his wife the latest style gown. The plays on the fancied affections of the young people often serves the purpose as the following incident proves: The preacher was annoyed by the AROUND THE WORLD FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1912. sound of whispering coming from the semi- darkness under one of the galleries. At last he paused in his sermon and declared: “Tf the young people making love under the gallery do not come to me in the vestry before service next Sunday morning, I will name them to the church.’”’ It was a chance shot, but next Sunday found twenty couples awaiting him in the vestry. He married the whole bunch to prevent a reeurrence of the disturbance. SEATTLE THEATRE. Those who like thrills with their comedy, in other words, everyone who has a taste for melodrama well acted, will find a regu- lar 12-course banquet of it at the Seattle Theatre for one week commencing next Monday night, November 25, when Bailey and Mitchell will offer Rex Beach’s play of the Far North, ‘‘The Spoilers.’’ There are five acts in the ‘‘Spoilers’’ and each seems to try and outdo the other in exciting climaxes. The story deals with a ring of crooks who, under the guise of the law, jumped the valuable claims in the vicinity of Nome during the early gold rush in the North. Study of the situation was personally made by the author and most of his characters are sketched from life, Struve, McNamara, Glennister, Judge Still- man and Cherry Mallotte in the play, are well known to the residents of Nome in the early days of the gold fever. AT THE EMPRESS. Next week the following program will prevail during the week: Extraordinary announcement! Exclusive engagement over the S. & C. Cireuit of John B. Hymers ‘‘The Macy Models,’’ with Juan Villassana and a company of four- teen, mostly girls. Pauline Fletcher & Co., in an up-to-date comedy playlet, ‘‘The Girl With a Taking Way.’’ There’s a laugh in every line. Virginia Grant, my lady dainty in pretty songs. A natty duo, De Vere & Lewis, present- ing a refined musical offering. The unctuous comedian, Don Carney, original monologue and syncopated piano- logue. The clever canine comedians, Jacobs’ Dogs. Twilight pictures. THE ORPHEUM. Next week will put on the following spe- cialties : Paul Dickey & Co., in ‘‘The Come Back,”’ a romance of the campus. T. Roy Barnes and Bessie Crawford pre- sent ‘‘The Fakir and the Lady.’”’ High Life Trio, in music and songs. The London Hippodrome dancers, Oscar and Suzette, creators of the back-to-back waltz. The Three Bremens, the imps of the play- grounds. Lew Cooper, character songs. De Witt Young and Sister present ‘‘The College Boy Juggler.’’ World’s events in motion pictures. In Greater New York a Mr. Shutt was married to a Miss Up. If their offsprings do not Shut Up then they will not jointly partake of their parents’ pedigrees. Chicago is credited with having a Mr. Waffle, a Mr. Maple and a Mr. Sirup among her prominent business men, and it has been suggested that, the trio go into the restaurant business and make a fortune out of their names. Munsey’s Magazine, it is reported, has offered Theodore Roosevelt, he of Bull Moose fame, a salary of $100,000 annually to take editorial charge thereof. That’s some salary, but in that capacity Teddy is worth every cent of it. When George Hagerdorn of North Yaki- ma shot to death George Ogburn and wounded George De Foe in a jealous rage he did no more than any man should have done, but he showed the white feather, when he tried to hide behind the skirts of his wife, who had played him false and, who was the sole cause of the tragedy. Men who despoil the homes of their fellow men as did George Ogburn deserve death. Haderdorn was eighteen and Ogburn was nineteen. So perturbed is William J. Burns over the attacks of the Seattle Daily Times that, it is currently reported he is about to give up the detictive business and go into the foreign missionary work. The question is being frequently asked, why is the editor of the Seattle Daily Times so hostily in- clined toward Burns? Did Burns ever do him a wrong? “Not guilty’? was the verdict of the Federal jury that heard the case wherein the government charged Edwin F. Myer with having defrauded the treasury while he was chief clerk at the Puget Sound Navy Yard. The district attorney claimed that Myer and his accomplices defrauded the government out of $50,000 or more, but the government attorney failed to make good at the trial and the accused, as said above, was acquitted. Almost two years ahead of contract time vessels will pass through the Panama Canal and thereby realize the dream of two cen- turies. France almost became bankrupt over the proposition and turned it over to Uncle Sam who took it up and it now is practically a reality. Its completion gives the United States government the key to the Western hemisphere. Kansas, Arizona, Michigan and Oregon at the late election voted to enfranchise women. Wisconsin voted on the question, but went on record as being opposed to it. There are ten states in the union in which women have all the right of suffrage. For the first time in quite a number of years both the president and the vice-presi- dent of the United States will be attendants of the Presbyterian church at the National Capitol, when Woodrow Wilson and T. R. Marshall are inaugurated. Judge Landis of the U. S. court refused to liberate Jack Johnson on a cash bail of $40,000, but insisted that he give a security bail, and the same to be singed by some one worth that amount of money in real estate. Just why a security is better than a cash bail is more than the average person is liable to figure out, for with the most of us the cash takes precedent over every- thing else. It looks as if Judge Landis saw a chance to send Jack to the county jail and could not overlook the opportunity. Johnson may have wilfully broken the law, but he is at least entitled to an even break before the law and not booted about simply because he is a black. A jury found Charles E. Houston and J. W. Bullock guilty of defrauding the gov- ernment, and Judge Cushman, before whom the case was tried, imposed a fine of $2,000 and one year’s confinement in the King county jail on each of them. The case will be appealed. In view of the fact that Mr. Houston did not profit by the transaction it was thought by a great many persons that only a jail sentence would be imposed upon him. Four more of the Rosenthal murderers. of New York have been found guilty and sen- tenced to the electric chair. They now oc- ceupy cells in murderer’s row along with Lieutenant Becker. There are still others connected with that most damnable plot, and unless the cogs of justice jump a notch they, too, will get their’s. Another peculiar coincident in names is reported from Greater New York. A Miss Crabbe has married a Mr. Apple, which should be responsible for lots of crabbe- apples. John Schrank, the Hungarian, who shot Theodore Roosevelt, has been given a life sentence. We are not in sympathy with death sentences for criminals, but no crime is more deserving of death than when one attempts to take another’s life without cause, justification or excuse. Schrank got off very light. William J. Burns, the detective, on whom the wrath of the editor of The Times has from time to time, since the Wappenstein- Blethen expose, been turned on, promises, as soon as he takes care of a thing or two in the East, to come in person to Seattle and make it interesting for the editor of The Times. Rumor has it that Burns says he ‘‘has the goods on’’ the Colonel that will silence his vituperative pen. eS OT a ee ee ee ee ee ee the native white citizen has for persons of a different race or nationality to them- sélves is so pronounced that a Methodist congregation in Greater New York sold its church property because the neighborhood in which it was located was for the most part composed of foreigners. But later, thinking they perhaps had not shown just the proper spirit toward the ‘‘stranger within their gates,’ the money from the sale was voted to the foreign missionary work, but other money was raised and a new church built in a locality from which the foreigner was barred. The population of Alaska as given by the last census in round numbers does not exceed 32,000. The area of Alaska is some- thing like 600,000 square miles, or as large as Norway, Sweden and Denmark, which has a population of 10,000,000. The natural resources of Alaska are 100 per cent more valuable than those of Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and the country as well adapted to agriculture as the latter countries. Alas- ka has sufficient resources as well as terri- tory to sustain a population as large as the present population of the United States. If you are on the square and in the open in your business relations with your fellow man regardless of your color, complexion, nationality or previous condition, business men of other races and nationalities will lend you a helping hand in times of need. Recently a run was made on a bank in Richmond, Virginia, which was owned and operated by a Negro, and within an hour after the run began two of the leading white bankers of the city sent over $200,- 000 to the Negro’s rescue, and when the depositors saw the money rolling in by the wagon loads they took fright and the run was broken. The owner of the bank, whose word is better, perhaps, than his bond, though he be black enough to spit ink for the government, using the vulgar vernacular of the street, yet his ‘‘race prejudiced,’’ white banker brothers rushed to his rescue the same as if he were of their complexion. Right always wins in the long run. POLITICIANS Representative H. E, Foster, of the 47th District, and the well known attorney, is a candidate for Speaker of the House of Rep- resentatives. Mr. Foster was a member of the 12th session and was re-elected to suc- ceed himself. It is contended on behalf of the supporters of Mr. Foster, and his friends generally, that he would make an ideal presiding officer and that the business of the session would be handled with the greatest of skill. Mr. Foster has been a resident of Seattle for the past twelve years and is one of the active lawyers in the city and has been ac- tively engaged in the practice of law for the past twenty-one years. Mr. Fsoter is thoroughly familiar with all matters relat- ing to the affairs of the state and country THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN a 2 | hg oe H, E. FOSTER. generally, is an excellent parlimentarian and an able lawyer. At the last session of the Legislature on account of the extraor- dinary knowledge Mr. Foster possesses of the constitution and laws he became known in that session as the ‘‘constitutional Law- yer of the House’’and was by everyone re- garded as an authority on everything relat- ing to constitutional matters. Tt is said by members of the last House and by friends of Mr. Foster that he pro- posed some of the most substantial legisla; tion ever tendered the Legislature of Wash- ington. Mr. Foster was the first one to recommend a state bond issue for the pur- pose of constructing a system of permanent highways throughout the state, and present- ed a bill for such purpose which was held up and suppressed in the rules committee of the last House, as well as many other meritorious and valuable measures. Mr. Foster guarantees to everyone and to every measure, if elected Speaker, a fair and hon- orable consideration. Mr. Foster’s friends and supporters are urging his candidacy on the grounds of his ability and the further grounds that every measure and every mem- ber will be given a fair and honorable con- sideration. Measures which are suppressed and killed will be killed on the floor of the House and not suppressed in the rules com- mittee. No measure or member will be dis- criminated against and measures will be re- ported out of the rules committtee in the order in which they are received. Mr. Foster is one of the industrious mem- bers and should and will make an ideal pre- siding officer, He is assured of support from all factions in the state and is beyond ques- tion the logical candidate for Speaker. He is not making any unfounded claims about his strength but when it comes to the selec- tion of a Speaker all factions can safely unite on him as he is known by everyone to be not only able but a gentleman of in- tegrity and will make a Speaker who will FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1912. not discriminate against any member or any measure, All people agree that if Mr. Foster is elected Speaker he will not try to discrim- inate against this county. No jobbing will be countenanced. Mr. Foster now has more strength among the members elect than any other candidate, and should have no trouble about his election. If Mr. Foster becomes Speaker the business of the session will be transacted with promptness and dispatch and not left to the closing hours of the ses- sion. Otis M. Moore, in the early statehood days of Washington, a well known news- paper man, but who has been living in the East for the past three years, returned to Seattle last Tuesday and, so far as he now knows, expects to make Washington his home for all time to come. He founded the Washingtonian of Hoquiam, and after running it for years sold it to J. D. Dean. He moved to Seattle and was for a number of years city editor of the Times under Colonel Blethen. He subsequently bought the White River Journal at Kent and later on traded it to Dean for the Washingtonian, his first love, then a small daily. Later he sold it to Albert Johnson. Laboring under the delusion that he had all of the West he wanted he journeyed back to Maine and bought a farm. Three years, however, of that life was as much as he could stand and now he is ‘‘home again.’’ Albert John- son has just been elected to Congress and, may perhaps, Moore will re-buy the Wash- ingtonian. Mr. Meore was some politician in those early days as well as journalist. Edward COudihee, sheriff-elect of King county, has not named his deputies as yet and he will not do so until he gets good and ready. Cudihee is a man that never goes off half cocked and he therefore is going to take all the time he thinks he needs to select such deputies as will serve him best. It is thought that he will retain Matt Starwich, his Republican opponent, because Matt has made such an excellent deputy in that neck of the woods. It is also rumored that he will take care of John W. Roberts, a former Hodge deputy, who was let out of office because he did not see fit to work for Hodge’s guberna- torial efforts. Alexander J. Falconer, one of Washing- ton’s newly elected congressmen, has played a lucky political game. He has always had the opposition of the controlling political faction in Snohomish county, and yet when he himself went out for an office he always got it. He was twice elected to the house of representatives of the Washington legis- lature against the wishes of the political leaders of the county. He ran for state senator against one of the most popular poli- ticians of the county, and beat him to a fraz- zle. He was advised by even his best political friends to not make the run for congress, but he did it just the same and won out. Surely, surely, he was born under a lucky political star. Gay and Piper's Tribute to Wilson FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 1912 On Sunday morning, September 8th last, I with another friend, stood in the depot of this city saying "Goodbye, Senator—pleasant journey" to John Lockwood Wilson. He was leaving his home to visit his distinguished brother, the United States Minister to Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson, and his family. At that time Senator Wilson was in good spirits and apparent good health, though not robust, yet possessed, as we now see it, of an indefinable intuition of the closeness of that Grim Reaper which in time spare none. At that tiime he spoke, apparently as a casual remark, of the satisfaction he felt at the condition of his business affairs "should anything happen to me" and made some simple request of us in the event that anything should happen to him through which he might not come back. I however, expected his return; in no way did I think I was for the last time upon this earth saying to my beloved friend, "Goodbye, Senator—pleasant journey." We were friends. For nearly a quarter of a century our friendship was constant, enduring, faithful and true. He would not have me today attempt to paint him as moral man without blemish or fault, but I do stand here an ddeclare that I never heard a critic attempt to point a fault or an enemy seek to uncover a blemish in him that I did not instantly find an excuse or a defense. Friendship and pity toward a fellow man are as incompatible passions as love and hate and the two have no abiding place in any breast toward any object, and on this occasion I proclaim that my friendship of and for John L. Wilson was such that I never saw in him serious fault or material defect. I knew him well and to know him was to love him. He knew how to hold a friend because he knew how to be a friend, and his friendship once given was of that strain which possesses loyalty and fidelity, that grappled as bands of iron, and was as endurnng as the Rock of Ages because it was founded on Truth and in Love. I never heard him try to apologize for a friend,—never knew him to bear ugly tales, either to or from a friend. If his friend met adversity and he could help him, his words and efforts were gentle THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN nd Piper's and affectionate, his manner uplifting and reassuring; he knew how to help without debasement. I well knew my friend as congressman, as senator, as publisher of a great newspaper, as citizen and as husband and father, and in no relation of life was there aught for shame—aye,, there was in every relation a clean life and a splendid discharge of duties and obligations,—a close approach to that high standard of perfect ideals. I, in common with all his friends, was indeed very proud of 1980 WILSON R. GAY him, and rejoiced in his friendship. He had a way of doing things which was most effective and peculiar to himself. Challenged to combat, he was as brave as a lion and defiant as a giant, but withal, he was a modest man. I have seen him in his committee room of the House of Representatives and of the United States Senate when other members of intenational reputation would come in and in the most friendly way call out, "Hello, Jack—how is that great empire of yours out in the far north-west?" And before the ending of this friendly visit, the caller would be pledged to support some legislation which our representative was seeking to secure for this commonwealth. For in all walks 1. Tribute to of life, those who knew him best seemed to delight in helping him to secure measures which he was endeavoring to promote. In one thing he was greatly misunderstood, for there seems to have been a popular estimate of him that he made "demands," when, as a matter of fact, he never made demands. He would advocate a cause or gently make a request—ofentimes no more than an intimation, which was usually crowned with success, but if, perchance, he met with failure, he R. GAY never bore resentment, much less a grouch. Briefly (as all addresses must be upon this occasion) mention has been made of Senator Wilson as the owner and publisher of the Post-Intelligence. He assumed this great work when past fifty years of age and without previous training in that work, but he had an intuitive sense of a "good story,' of "newz,' and an appreciation of the public demand that a newspaper should have honorable character and stability, and he earnestly sought to meet those demands. But it is not of that I would speak,—it is of another matter. Senator Wilson loved peace and he became firmly convinced that the first great obligation of a newspaper, 1. 5 as an individual, was cleanliness and an honest publication of legitimate news; he believed his paper should unceasingly labor for the upbuilding of this city and this great northwest and that all personal bickerings and spites toward competitors should forever cease. He did his full part to bring about this end with happy results. No pledged words of such a course were ever spoken. No alliance of offense or defense with any competitor exists or ever was entered into. They at all times were and now are honest competitors, each pursuing its own individual course, and it is to be hoped this wise policy will forever continue. Just for a brief moment I gently open the door and enter the sacred precints of his home life, only enough, though, to speak of an ideal devoted husband, who faithfully kept his pledge to cherish his beloved wife, who has as girl given him her all in a sublime faith in his personal worth, which faith remained unshaken unto the end, and of his affection and inspiring love for his daughter and granddaughter. He loved them deeply, devotedly and strongly, and toward them was magnanimous, gallant, chivalrous. By them he was beloved unto devotion. He was their shield, indeed, to them, he was the embodiment of affectionate noble manhood. In his behalf, as in every other walk in life, we may safely use the old homely descriptive saying, "He was a well bred gentleman," for all his great qualities were of nature's implanting and he seemingly could not bend or stoop to aught that was base or ignoble. Senator Wilson was an orator and a public speaker possessed force, charm and effectiveness to a wonderful degree. If we were to search for the secret of this power so strongly possessed by him, it would probably be best found in his great love for his fellow men and his exceptional knowledge of human nature. The mortal life of John Lockwood: Wilson upon this earth is ended. In that Indiana town of his birth sods have been upturned there is a newly opened grave. It is winter. The birds do not sing; the grasses nestle not; neither doth the vine creep, but here and there is an evergreen, a sprig of myrtle, the amaranth, and the forget-me-not, emblematic of an immortality, [firmly believed in by our departed friend, and which is our solace and comfort in this sad hour. Spring will come again and with it the vines, the grasses and the birds and song, for Life never dies! And, though we will never again see the earthly form of Senator Wil- son, yet we know that that which was the real of him has not per- ished,—that our real friend liveth, though unseen by our eyes of sense. And we will not forget his genial personality, or his bouyant optimistic broad outlook and sub- lime faith in the destiny of his country and the glorious achieve- ments of his race. Not long ago I heard him remark that it was his firm conviction that the Anglo- Saxon race, the Christian religion and the Stars and Stripes were all upon an onward march around the world for the emancipation and uplifting of the human race. The spirit of our departed friend abideth forever. That in- definable something, which our faith and religion teaches is in the image and likeness of the Sup- reme Creator of the universe, could not perish but is immortal and endureth forever. He has gone upon his last long voyage, and I this afternoon repeat what I said but two months ago, ‘‘Good- bye Senator—pleasant journey.”’ ADDRESS OF EDGAR B. PIPER “Sixty-two years is the brief span of life just closed for the fallen friend whose death we are here today to mourn and deeds to commemorate, The memory of men yet young runs back to a time when this man’s life was yet in its early youth; the expecta- tion of men not old looks forward now to the mortal certainty that they, too, must in just a few years join the hurrying and innumer- able throng that has been happily released from the fitful fevers of the mortal flesh. ‘We here are awed and silenced once again by the fall of a soldier who has fought the battle we, too, have been fighting—in the same cause, at the same time, on the same field, against the same foe— the great battle of human exist- ence and for human rights. He was a contemporary ; therefore we see through the glass darkly the image of our own mortal destiny. He was a captain in the active service of the public; so we are reminded once again that no man Imoweth the place or the hour when the messenger shall come. He was a fellow journalist; so each of us who are yet in the midst of affairs is made to realize that THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN men may come and go, but the lamp of human progress must and will forever be kept aflame by other hands. He was an honest man, but the rain quenches the spark in both the just and the unjust. He was a brave man, as he feared not death, so we who knew him are consoled. He was a good man; thus he rests well. “We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths ; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs; He most lives Who thinks most, feels the nobl- est, acts the best. “T assume that I have been asked to say a word here today because I knew Mr. Wilson through almost the entire period of his residence in Washington i ‘ eae ea: < are es é Dt Came Ye: « ri oe oo Pe ee ‘ i * ee | i ee is . e Buco s sa oi: pa sie es. ge fa Ba oe eit PS ae hse the: Be ea Gua ce ae ie Rear oes: hie see We Res LR Ab Pa Ate ee oe Shek x ato - + EDGAR B. PIPER territory and state, and because we were friends. I may be per- mitted then to drop for just a moment into personal narration for I too, have been a living wit- {ness to some of the events in which he had a conspicuous and honorable part. I first saw Mr. Wilson at Olympia in 1889 during the state constitutional conven- tion. He had been in the territory for about seven years, and then had his home in Spokane. The long struggle for admission of the thriving and ambitious young commonwealth to the union of states had become a reality, for the enabling act had been passed by Congress, and ninety citizens of the first rank had assembled at Olympia, after due selection by the people, to frame the state’s organic law. This impressive duty was discharged with great formality and greater fidelity, and the oceassion attracted the atten- tion and enlisted the presence of every important man in the ter- ritory. Mr. Wilson was not a member of the convention, but un- doubtedly he might have been if he had desired. I fancy the reason was that his ambition lay in an- other direction entirely. “Being the staff correspondent at the convention of The Post-In telligencer, I interviewed Mr. Wil- son ag to the purpose of his visit, and he told me frankly—for pub- lication—that he was a candidate for representative in Congress for the new state and he was making his campaign. It was a character- istic performance—open, straight- forward and admirable. “There was no guilt about Mr. Wilson, no indirection or obliquity or false pretense. He was what he was, and he wanted what he wanted. He despised the sinister schem- ings of lesser men for place or power through promotion of their own ends by secret alliances or arranged activities or inspired publicity. His method was direct, his language plain, his opinions definite, his intentions positive, and his destination always in sight. “Tater, at Walla Walla, was held the first Republican conven- tion, and Mr. Wilson was there with the solid Spokane delegation behind him. Its sole object was to obtain his nomination for Con- gress—a tribute both to his per- sonal standing in his community and to his efficiency as a politic- ian, “T have no design here of tel- ling the story of the convention, only to say ‘that Mr. Wilson’s most formidable opponent for the nomination was Ralph Oregon Dunbar, a deserving and active man, who had long been a useful and widely-known citizen of the territory. After Mr. Dunbar’s de- FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1912. a solatium in the unanimous nom- ination for the supreme bench—a termination of a spirited and in- teresting contest that was satis- factory to Mr. Dunbar’s friends, and altogether fortunate for that gentleman himself, since he re- mained an honored member of the supreme bench until he died re- cently. “The return of Mr. Wilson to congress several times and his tri- umphant election in 1895 to be United States senator, his subse- quent participation in the larger activities of the state, and his ac- quisition of the Seattle Post-In- telligencer are as familiar to you as they are to me, and they have been abundantly illuminated by others, so I shall pass them over for a brief consideration of the sentiments and forces that influ- enced the formation of Senator Wilson’s character and gave color to his opinions and direction to his great energies during his life. “John Lockwood Wilson was born in Indiana during the days of the profound struggle over slavery and the vital issue over state’s rights. “Tn such an atmosphere was the boyhood of John Wilson passed, and he grew to manhood amid the scenes of reconstruction when all men had been declared equal, the nation had been saved, the ugly head of treason at home had been subdued and crushed, and the memories of the bloody sesession was still poignant and awful. I do not seek to reopen old sores or to revive partisan disputes, but only to state the fact that with the prespectors, the associates, and the family of young Wilson, the Republican party was the in- carnation of patriotism and Re- publican was synonym of patriot. “Tf, then, in those latter days of party disintegration, individual forgetfulness of the past and com- mon disregard for the memorable lessons of fruitful and terrible ex- perience we find John L. Wilson stnading up straight in his par- tisanship, in the firm belief that it is a sacred obligation to be a partisan—as it is—just as it is a privilege and a responsibility to be an American, we should not be surprised or critical. It was in his blood and in his spirit to know what he knew and to believe what he believed with all his might. Catch then, oh, catch the transient hour, Improve each moment as it flies; Life’s a short summer—man a FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1912. Senator Wilson was a part of the public life of territory and state. Yet here now the chapter ends, the curtain falls. But if it is over for him, it is in a sense over for us, for whatever comes, the day’s doings are not to be the same, the moving finger writes a new record, with new names, new events, new issues, new thoughts—new, yet ever old, for there is nothing new in human character, nothing new in human destiny; only the old story with an endless procession of new actors. The lives of every one of us who long knew Mr. Wil- son touched at some point the same affairs, the same-history, the same onward march of time and sweep of tide. “This life was showered with honors and the common portion of human vicissitudes. This man had friends who treasured him, a family who loved him and a con- stituency that trusted him, He had a worthy part in mighty events. He knew the great of a nation, and they knew and honor- ed him. He had a remarkable in- heritance through a distinguished ancestry of personal knowledge, memories and associations cover- ing the largest outstanding epi- sode of our national history. He contributed a notable share to the upbuilding of a splendid state. He was a teacher of sound moral pre- cepts and a leader of political thought through his fine news- paper. He preached honest jour- nalism. He owned sturdy convie- tions. He had fixed ideals. He lived uprightly and he died brave- ly.”’ IN. THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington for hing County.
