Main 305 422 Epler Block Seattle, Washington HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON - Publisher SUSIE REVELS CAYTON - - Associate January on the Atlantic coast may have been unusually warm, none of which the Pacific coast enjoyed. There is one thing The Seattle Republican always furnishes its readers original ideas on all current events. Suppose Thomson should stick the Times in his damage suits, it would be "some money" to charge to profit and loss. With both Hillman and Hopkins leaving McNeil Island, the "prominent men" row thereof will be badly shot to pieces. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Seattle Business, a Sun that promises to be the delight of the community, and the comfort of his parents. We have learned that Harry B. Jones, who is accused by his wife of maintaining a dual family was not the other Mr. Jones, but was simply Mr. Jones. There does not seem to be any justifiable excuse in making Seattle a spearate congressional district, apart from King County, except for a few to control the election. "Comforts of home" have been added to logging camps in the Northwest. There is such a little doing in those camps that its an easy matter to add the luxuries of home. The report that Editor Blethen controls the P.-L. should fall of its own weight after last Saturday's editorial, which among other things said: "Seattle does not want to lose Dr. Matthews." If it were a mutual agreement between Dr. Turner and his wife that their marriage should never be recognized by each other, what in heaven's name was the excuse of them marrying at all? A court of justice has decided that a husband has no legal right to open his wife's letters. Perhaps that conclusion was reached on the theory "eves dropers never hear any good of themselves." It is the concensus of opinion that there is grave danger of the Democratic harmony ice pond being badly broken with Bryan, Clark, Underwood and other "big guns" all skating thereon at one and the same time. It will be a hard blow to the advertising end of the papers of Washington if the office of coroner is abolished. Almost as much money was spent in the election of the coroner of King county last year as was spent in the election of the governor. Those responsible for the publication of the Seattle Sun are to be congratulated for the magnificent paper they turned out the first day, and each subsequent day. The Sun is truly the "longfelt want," and if it continues as it begun, there is no doubt of it filling the bill. These are supposed to be hard times and yet the Sun is born and becomes a strong, vigorous youngster from the very outset. Long may it shine. COURAGE We will speak out, we will be heard, Though all earth's system crack; We will not bate a single word, Nor take a letter back. We speak the truth, and what care we For hissing and for scorn, While some faint gleamings we can see Of Freedom's comming morn. Let liars fear, let cowards shrink, Let traitors turn away; Whatever we have dared to think That dare we also say. Otheres Nussel Howell Levi Ankeny was elected to the United States Senate on the thirteenth ballot ten years ago (January 29th) thereby defeating Addison G. Foster, seeking re-election, and John Lockwood Wilson, who had also served four years as a member of the senate. This was Mr. Ankeny's third attempt at election, which proved the charm. It was variously estimated that the three efforts cost Senator Ankeny upwards of $750,000, but he was determined to have it at any cost. At the time Foster was elected at the instigation of Senator Wilson, it was reported that Mrs. Ankeny said to friends in Olympia, "If Senator Wilson would decree that Mr. Ankeny instead of Mr. Foster succeede him in the senate as a reward $100,000 would be a mere bagatell, but Wilson was too bitter toward Ankeny to consider any proposition. Senator Ankeny served his six years, but failed of re-election and retired to private life. He still resides in Walla Walla. John B. Allen, one of Washington's first United States Senators and pioneer citizens, has been dead ten years (January 29th). In territorial days he lived in Walla Walla and was United States District Attorney for the State of Washington. He traveled to the various places where court was held by stage or horseback, and in after years he often recited many pleasing reminiscences of his experiences on the planes. It was while U. S. District Attorney that he became intimately acquainted with Cornelius H. Hanford of Seattle, which acquaintance ripened into fast friendship and resulted in Mr. Hanford being given the appointment to the federal bench. Mr. Allen was elected as one of the first United States senators from Washington and drew the short term—Gov. Squire drawing the long. Few men were more affiable and accommodating than Senator Allen, though his political associates made for him some very bitter personal, as well as political enemies. After his defeat he concluded Seattle a more lucrative field than Walla Walla for his profession and he formed a law partnership of Struve, Allen, Hughes & McMicken, that soon became the leading firm of the Northwest. Senator Allen's family still resides in Seattle and his son-in-law, W. T. Dovell, took his place in the firm. George Turner deadlocked the legislature of the State of Washington twenty years ago and succeeded in defeating Senator Allen for re-election. Gov. McGraw appointed Senator Allen to succeed himself, but the United States Senate decided that he was not entitled to hold the place, owing to the legislature's failure to elect. Judge Turner subsequently left the Republican party and joined the Free Silver Republicans and was elected to the senate by the Pops, Democrats and F. S. Republicans in the fifth legislature, January 1897. He soon became famous in the halls of Congress. Since leaving the Senate he has been repeatedly honored by Republican presidents to represent the United States government in foreign controversies and he is now U. S. Commissioner on fishery disputes between the United States and Canada. John Lockwood Wilson was elected a member of the United States Senate by the Washington Legislature eighteen years ago, after one of the most desperate political battles in the history of the Northwest. He succeeded Senator Allen and had but four years to serve, owing to the failure of the legislature to elect two years before, during which time the state had but one representative in the senate. The session of the legislature was rapidly drawing to a close when Mr. Wilson concluded that his cause was lost, packed his grips, paid his hotel bills, thanked his supporters and prepared to leave for Washington City the next day, but Senators Ide and Deckebach, Representatives Scobey and Taylor, took a more hopeful view of the situation and succeeded in rallying the shattered forces and during the night they not only re-opened the Wilson headquarters, but secured enough signatures to assure Mr. Wilson's election, and at the joint session the following day at high noon John L. Wilson was elected. The speaker of the house of representatives at that session of the legislature was the Hon. R. B. Albertson of King County, who is now one of the Superior Courtous in the politics of the state for many years thereafter, even to the time of his death a few months ago. But this week the Thirteenth legislature paid a glowing tribute to the memory of Senator Wilson and the leading eulogizer was Representative Goss, who for many years was city editor of the senator's paper. Many others joined in the memorial service and much of his political life during the thirty years he was a citizen of the state was recited. James G. Blaine, the Plumed Knight, and Uncle Sam's matchless statesman, who repeatedly sought the presidency and died as a result of his defeat, has been dead twenty years, having died January 27th. The name of Blaine will live as long as that of any statesman ever produced in the United States. Blaine's Twenty Years of Congress, which he wrote after retiring from the senate, is one of the master pieces of American literature. No man who has ever run for the presidency of the United States had as many enthusiastic supporters as did Blaine. He would have reached the goal of his ambition had not one Dr. Burchard in a fit of over enthusiasm made the invidious comparison, "rum, Romanism and rebellion," every Catholic voted against him and he was defeated. Grover Cleveland was president of the United States twenty-five years ago and among the many unpopular things that he attempted to do was the return of the flags of the Confederate armies, which had been captured by the Union armies. The Presidential order was rescinded owing to the storm of protests it precipitated.. President Cleveland likewise vetoed thousands of pension bills of Union soldiers and made remarks at the same time that was said to reflect on the Union veterans as soldiers. The order to return the Confederate flags and the satirical comments about the Union veterans contributed much toward his not succeeding himself and the election of Benjamin Harrison. Times have greatly changed since the Cleveland fiasco and today the flags of the Confederates are being returned and the veterans of the "blue" and the "gray," in their respective uniforms and under the tattered flags from the fields of battle hold reunions and rejoice at the prowess of each. Instead of Cleveland being dispised by the Union veterans for his insults, his memory is honored and reverred, and thus "the world do move." William Jennings Bryan says: "Cabinet positions ought not to be regarded as currency with which to pay debts. They are responsible positions and in filling them the President-elect should look to the future and not to the past. "A public official has no right to discharge political obligations at the expense of the public. The men selected by Mr. Wilson for the cabinet should be selected not because of personal service rendered to him, nor even because of past service rendered to the party. The individual counts for little; the cause counts for much. An individual if he had a proper motive for working, finds sufficient compensation in the triumph of ideas, principles and policies; he does not need the consolation of office. Offices should be used to strengthen the party and to advance the things for which the party stands. "The Commoner declines to discuss cabinet possibilities, but it ventures to express the hope that Governor Wilson will be governed by a higher motive than gratitude in the selection of his official household. In other words, the welfare of the party and the welfare of the country, not the ambitions of men or the interests of individuals, should be considered." James Hamilton Lewis of Chicago declares that there are 46,000 persons in the employ of the United States, who serve as spies, detectives, investigators, watchers, decoys, betrayers, silent accusers and secret slanderers of everything which pertains to the citizen in America." It is reported that Mr. Mellen will give up all his steamship and steamboat lines—will cease to be a water-Mellen, as it were.—New York Press. You may now tip your waiter or porter and not break the law. Goss wants the legislature to make it a misdemeanor for one to assume a false name. Who stung you, Frank? VOLUME XIV. NUMBER 45 perfecting her parking system and that is a thousand times more valuable than a twenty acre tract donated to the city for a park. Singletaxdom is receiving more consideration at the hands of the Seattle voter this year than is customary, and while it may not be adopted, yet it will be given so much consideration that if there be any real merit in the thing it will stand a good chance of winning two years from now. Now that the income tax is a stern reality, I am in favor of the adoption of single tax as the one work in with the other like a ball and socket" said a prominent business man of the city one day this week.

The chief speaker was Edward C. Cheasty, president of the park board and he recited the history of the Collin's playfield and the work the park board has accomplished. Mr. Cheasty is a park enthusiast, and he has devoted the most of his time without price or cost to making for Seattle beautiful as well as inviting parks and playfields. He has not given to the city valuable tracts of lands for parks, but he has given his time and talent to the city in 303 Twenty-second, South FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1913. Despite the apparent lethergy of the voters of Seattle to register during the month of January, they are coming around beautifully now and it is safe to predict that 60 per cent of the voters of the city will have registered before the poll books close. There are many important measures to be voted on this year and as near a full vote as possible should be cast. The municipal lighting plant has cost the tax payers considerable coin, but they have gotten value received for veery cent they have invested in the plant and the bonds that are to be voted upon at the coming elections, for needed extensions and improvements, do not seem to be unreasonable.

Office and postoffice address, $14 Northern Bank & Trust Bldg., Seattle, Wash. Henry Broderick and George W. Dilling are rather optimistic on the subject that Seattle is on the threshold of another hoom, which is perfectly natural, as the former made a $500,000 real estate turi and the latter $100,000 turn and both within the past week. That amount of money would make most anyone opto- mistic. Wilson R. Gray, who recently resigned from the superior court bench to take up practice again has probably “‘come back’? more rapidly than anyone who has ever attempted it. He is now one of the leading practioners of the county. Michael J. Carrigan, after absence of a few months in the employe of the tax payers of Washingtdn, looks perfeetly natural at his desk in the offices he retained during his absence. ‘‘There is nothing in the charge that I neglected my duty, save in the heat of the campaign, when I was working for the election of Hay, but there is lots in the charge ‘‘I was an offensive partisan, hence my dismisal, but thats the political game.’ E. G. Ellis, deputy prosecuting attorney of King County, is now a deputy prosecutor in Pierce County. It is plain to be seen that Ellis is after Peter Miller’s goat. has sent to many of the personal friends of the late John L. Wilson, a very beautiful steel engraving, neatly framed. E. L, Blaine is making his third race for a member of the Seattle City Council, and if he runs as well as he did on other occasions, so far as he is concerned there is nothing to it. Homer M. Hill, who is seeking a nomination for a member of the City Council, gives evidence of being a difficult hill for the bunch to run over. Oe eT Ee re LR ES Eee Pe ee gl ANE ee) aa OEE tA gS OOS 2) ae a eee ener | ly taken unto himself a better half, after going to the legislature. It is easily understood now why Mr. Childe was so anxious to go to the legislature—that was the only show of getting the one he loved best to be his bride. Judge Ronald has been threatened with death by an anonomous card writer. Persons who resort to such silly notoriety are too cowardly to kill a kitten, to say nothing of a man. Judge Ronald is a just judge and merits no such deadly threats. Dr. M. A. Matthews has decided to ‘‘stay with his people’? and in reaching such a conclusion he pleases a great majority of the citizens of this city and com- munity. Since casting his lot in Seattle, he has been a world of help in the general uplift of mankind and there still beg room for improvement, it is hoped that he will stay long and fully complete his work so well begun. Reginald H. Thomson has filed another $90,000 damage suit against the Seattle Daily Times, and rum- or has it there are still more to follow. Even the worm will turn and so has Thomson. He has been abused by the Times like a pickpocket for the past tei years or more and he now proposes to make life even more burdensome for the editor of the Times than the Times made it for him, which is saying a good deal. J. A. Bates, editor and publisher of the Sumas News says: ‘Love will be sure to find a way.even al- though the senate does pass its bill ‘prohibiting inter- marriage between white and colored races.’ It has always been thus and if love does laugh at locks and doors, it is probable that it will laugh at the law. Yet artists have better suecess if they know how to mix colors.’’ H. M. Boone, a former state senator of Washington, who was convicted of the crime of receiving bank de- posits, knowing the bank to be insolvent, has decided to take to the lecture platform and his theme will be, “Phe crite of the state as to her wards.” Mr. Boone is a keen observer and he says he kept his eyes open while in prison and now he proposese to let the cat out of the walet. BC a alse THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Benjamin Spear, editor atid publisher of Water- ville Press, is a candidate for the registership of the U. 8. land office at Waterville. Editor Spear is an old line Democrat and one of the state’s most successful country editors and the other Knights of the Pencil hope success will erown his efforts. J. W. Bryan, Congressman, elect) from at large, has decided to claim Seattle his home. Does that mean he thinks Humphtey an easy’ vietim to devour or does it mean that, Bryan realizes his election was a p-lilieal freak, and he has no show of succeeding himself from ahy district in which Kitsap county will be placed or from any other district. The House of Representatives desires aliens to own land in Washington, but makes exceptions of Chinese and Japanese. The Senate seems to be of the opinion that private shooting preserves are not good for the state. The school teachers are spending considerable in lobbying for the passage of the Teachers’ Pension Bill. Voting machines are being shown the members and a most favorable impression has been made by their operation. Senator Hutchinson is desirous of abolishing the only way to get Deep Creek Jones’ goat. Senator Freneh’s persistency to down the Negro gives one the idea that its a personal matter with him.
