Main 305 422 Epler Block Seattle, Washington HORACE ROSCOE CAYTON - Publisher SUSIE REVELS CAYTON - - Associate Perhaps the senate thinks Seattle has too many Irish citizens to grant to her home rule. If Madero is shot Uncle Sam proposes to mediate in Mexico—just bound to have scrap. Mayor Cotterill is still smiling, the success of Griffiths to the contrary notwithstanding. If Griffiths would withdraw from the mayoralty race now he might be Seattle's mayor next year. The human hog who blackmails his way through life must be made from the offals of all the balance of the earth. Despite its hoo-doo, Washington's thirteenth legislature has a Hart in it that warms up to the lieutenant-governor. Now that a new president has been selected by the jarring factions of Mexico, hostilities should at least stop for a month. A revolution within a revolution is Mexico's condition just now, and Madero is the one each revolution is after. President Taft got a bumping in Congress the other day that must have made him think of the late November election. If Cain, the slayer of his brother Abel, of biblical fame, is the father of the American Indians, then who fathered the Africans? Under Madero, Mexico has sailed through bloody seas, and now it looks as if Madero will have to take a dose of his own medicine. Handicap the state of Washington just now with state-wide prohibition agitation and it will prove the feather that broke the camel's back. Hard times seems to have been driven completely out of the East, but he is still sticking to the Northwest like a sick kitten to a chair post. From the amount of money the income tax promises to turn over to the government to be distributed by the Democrats a long felt want is in sight. Woodrow Wilson as president of the United States promises to knock custom into a cocked hat, as he is planning to visit the Philippines while president. Europe is surely overrun with wars and rumors of wars this year, and unless the dove of peace gets busy immediately, if not sooner, things will happen. If the ex-policeman, who testified against Mrs. Fay Edwards, told the truth then Mrs. Edwards could be consistently charged with having raped a policeman. Hungry Democrats are going to be hungry longer than they had anticipated, if President Wilson does not make a clean sweep immediately after March fourth. Mr. Investigation is working over-time in the state of Washington just now and yet he does not seem to be finding much that he is willing to talk about. Whether Olympia will see any wet or dry legislation enacted is still a debateable question and the advocates of neither side are satisfied with the situation. If hostilities in Mexico cease Uncle Sam will lose a golden opportunity to land troops on Mexican soil, and Mr. Mediation will again lose another chance of territory grabbing. Whether the Spanish or Turkish language will predominate in Hades for the ensuing year has not been fully decided as yet, but it's a drag and a draw between the two for the honor. Men who are perennial candidates for some kind of public office do not seem to get much consideration from the voting public, and yet they never take a tumble to themselves. If the Mexicans want a good first-class president, and one that will bring peace and harmony out of chaos and cussedness, we suggest they select Henry Lane Wilson of Washington. What's the use of arresting one or two of the policemen of New York for grafting, when time and money could be saved by arresting the entire force and sending them to prison on general principles. Schedule K is said to be the rock on which the Republican party foundered, but we are of the opinion that, it will be schedule G, meaning greed, that will be the rock on which the Democratic party will founder. Political rumor has it, Governor Lister will make a clean sweep as soon as the legislature adjourns, and experience will count for nothing. What will be the Democrat's gain will be the taxpayers' loss in such a wholesale removal. If it is a fact that State Senator Nichols jobbed the southwest in the shape of preventing good roads legislation, then the southwest is getting hers for jobbing King county in the way of preventing re-apportionment. A report comes from the East to the effect that the breweries will ask the next Congress to class beer as a semi-temperance drink. If this is done, then it is a safe bet that half of the states of the Union will go dry at the first opportunity, if not sooner. After thirty years' agitation of the subject Oregon has a sterilization law and so fearful was its chief advocate that it might be emasculated between the governor's office and the office of the secretary of state that, she, herself, took the bill to its destiny and was receipted for the same by the secretary. Negroes who worked for Democratic success last year have been given some slight intimation as to what Democratic success means, so far as their future is concerned, by the passage of the Mardwick bill by Congress making it a felony for the inter-marriage of the white and black folk in the District of Columbia. Well, you would have it. DUNCES WHO MAY BLAME TOBACCO. That over 90 per cent. of all boys who fail in the grammar and high schools are smokers, is asserted by Prof. M. V. O'Shea of the University of Wisconsin, as quoted in the University's Press Bulletin (Madison, December 16.) The tobacco evil, he declares, is the most serious one that the public schools have to contend with. We read: "Most boys do not learn to smoke because they like tobacco, but because their schoolfellows smoke. It is a social thing with the boy. By doing it he thinks he is one of 'the crowd' and not an 'outsider.' Unruly boys are almost always addicted to the cigarette habit. Smoking robs pupils of their docility. Records kept of the work of students who were not addicted to the smoking habit when they entered the high school but who acquired it later show that not only did these pupils become harder to manage, but the quality of their school work also declined greatly. What a hold VOLUME XIV. NUMBER 48 the smoking evil has gained on public school boys is indicated by the statements made by a number of high-school principals who declare that from 50 to 80 per cent. of high school pupils are now using cigarettes. It is an interesting fact that the strongest sentiment against smoking has arisen in communities in which the raising of tobacco is the principal industry. Tobacco men do not want young boys in their own communities to moke, and in a number of places in Wisconsin various organizations have taken a stand against smoking by school children." Tomorrow (Saturday) and the citizens of the United States will pay homage to the memory of George Washington, the father of his country, and a complete suspension of business is promised. As we get further and further from the real life of Washington, the sweeter his memory becomes, and we believe a more general public demonstration should be held in the great civic centers in honor of his memory. It is quite a coincidence that the birthdays of the funder of the country and likewise the savior of the country should come in the same month and only ten days apart. Citizens of the United States who flocked to Mexico a few years ago, with the view of becoming millionaires from the golden opportunities that that country presented are not sure about getting the money now as they were when they first invested in that country of revolutions. Way after you have passed your fiftieth milestone and you find yourself in no more certain state of mind as to what the morrow will bring to you in the way of something for maintenance for you and others dependent on you for still riper years, than did you when only twenty, it takes not only a philosopher, but likewise a psychologist to meet your fellow man with smiles. No, no, the world has not been unfair to you, but you have been unfair to yourself; but it is hard to keep from trying to lay the blame on the world. As long as there is life, we are told, there is hope, and Nature distributes this oil of hope in such liberal quantities that it is truly a faint heart that does not see better days ahead. The results of the late primary election in Seattle was a great surprise to the wise ones. Austin E. Griffiths himself hardly realized that he would lead the ticket as he did and we suspect E. L. Blaine was equally surprised that he drew fourth place. If you can take previous primary elections as a precedent, then Blaine will be beaten at the polls. If Griffiths holds his own at the regular election, and he will, and if the three daily papers take the stand that the three leading candidates be elected, as they have more or less done in the past, then it looks as if Griffiths, Marble and Parish will be the next councilmen. Blaine is a splendid man, but he has not popularized himself within the past two years. It is currently rumored that he is opposed to municipal ownership of public utilities and unless he can disabuse the public's mind of that he will not even run third at the general election. Seattle seems to be the storm center these days, for every political fad and ism that can be thought of and the mind of the voting public is at sea as to what will happen. Should single tax show a gain over two years ago it will intimidate capital that otherwise might seek investment here, and if a hundred and one other things that are being agitated by those who seem to have nothing else to do but to conjure up doctrines and isms to impose on Seattle, she will make little or no progress for the next five or six years. Governor Blease wants a law making it a penalty for reporters to misquote a public official. Blease would gain by being misquoted.—Baltimore American, Nothing out of the ordinary for a senator to get lost in the capitol. Sometimes they are hopelessly lost in the Senate.—Atlanta Constitution. Another hopeful sign of the times is that Tennessee has elected a United States senator without the aid of firearms.—Los Angeles Express. 2 WASHINGTON'S THIRTEENTH LEGISLATURE. Despite the fact something like 1,090 bills have been introduced into the legislature, but few of them have run the gauntlet of both houses and been signed by the governor. In other words, the session is quite two-thirds gone and practically nothing has been accomplished. The Cheeney Normal school appropriation bill, which reached the governor, has been vetoed, and though an army of lobbyists from Spokane and the surrounding country are in Olympia with the view of rallying the members of the legislature to passing the bill over the Governor's veto, no move has been made in that direction as yet, and when it is, dollars to doughnuts it will fail. It begins to look as if the Thirteenth Legislature is to be the hoodoo, as has been repeatedly predicted by the superstitious. The legislative reapportionment bill will be reported to the house next Monday, so thinks Representative Kennedy, and while it does not give King county her just desserts, yet it will be an improvement over what she has now, and it may pass both branches of the legislature and be signed by the governor. Others, however, who were spoken to about the bill, were no so sanguine over its success, and were of the opinion that no legislation would be passed changing the present legislative apportionment. The lobby from the smaller counties are urging their representatives to leave the apportionment as it is and let King do her "worst." Those representatives of the present legislature that always holler hog at Seattle seem to do so for the express purpose of detracting attention from them while they hog everything from King county. Home rule for cities of a certain class met its fate in the senate last Thursday, and those who have studied the bill and its aftermath are of the opinion that it met a deserving death. It matters not how large cities become they are still a part and parcel of the state in which they are located and it is utterly impossible for them to become an independent body and still be a part of the state. If the Houser water front bill passes both branches of the legislature and is signed by the governor, Seattle will be plunged into an ocean of litigation, which will do her no good in the way of forging ahead. Just now Seattle seems to be the legitimate prey for every contending force and faction in the state, and unless she finds some way to break the spell she will find herself in a bad way from a commercial standpoint. The bill may be directed at the big fellows, but in the end the bulk of the weight will fall on the shoulders of the laboring people. When you kill the hen that lays the golden egg every day to be sure you will have the dead hen, but she will last only a short time and then you will have neither hen nor egg. Cutting that part of King county outside of the city limits of Seattle off from the Seattle congressional district and in lieu thereof hooking on Kitsap county, reads like a chapter from fancied fiction such as H. Rider Haggard wrote in his palmiest days. If the bill becomes a law it will be the worst congressional abortion, so far as districts are concerned, that one has met in a lifetime, and it would give the famous Mississippi shoestring district cards and spades and then beat it two to one. Seattle should be a district all by herself, but if that is not considered feasible then King county should be one congressional district. It seems an undeniable fact that there have been introduced into the present legislature more bills of a personal character than in any previous legislature in Washington. Men by the scores and even hundreds are flocking to Olympia every day the legislature is in session urging the passage of some bill that has been introduced by some friendly member for the express purpose of giving a select few of them some commercial or financial advantage over some one else. All such measures should be promptly killed. The Utes are going back on the war-path again—the first films were a failure.—Washington Post. Some socialist literature reads as if socialism would make all motormen motorists.—Houston Chronicle. The principal need of Cipriano Castro, just now, seems to be terminal facilities.—Cleveland Leader. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN PURELY PERSONAL. Henry Lane Wilson, Unele Sam's ambasador to Mexico, is undergoing an ordeal that he had least expected, despite the fact the Mexican government is given to monthly revolutions. Mr. Wilson is standing by his guns and the United States has in him a man that is looking after her interests as few others would do. Ambasador Wilson hails from the state of Washington and his fellow citizens are very proud of him. W. T. Dovell, one of Seattle's foremost attorneys at law, is spending a few weeks in San Francisco on legal business. Mr. Dovell took a hand in the political game last year, but on his return from Chicago he announced he had all of the game that he desired, and resigned in favor of whoever wanted the job. Otto A. Case has not been heard from for some time, and his political friends in the city are a bit uneasy about him lest he got lost on the sea of Innocuous Desuetude. E. H. Wells, editor in chief of the Seattle Sun, not only looks wise these days, but he likewise looks pleased and especially when he looks over the Sun and sees how bright it is. Judge Howard, so goes the story, will retire from the bench after March 4th, unless he is confirmed by the senate before that time. In other words, he will give the president an immediate opportunity to select his successor. Clarence Dayton Hillman is back from his summer outing and is "pleased to be back in Seattle again." Others have said the selfsame thing and said so out of idle curiosity, but it's dollars to doughnuts that Mr. Hilman meant what he said. Bob Bridges was in Olympia this week waiting for the investigating committee to call on him to divulge latent information about official corruption, and it is currently reported that he is full and overflowing of his subject. Prosecuting Attorney Murphy let loose a broadside on the social clubs of Seattle last Tuesday and Wednesday, and as a result the books of those organizations are being carefully scrutinized. Peter Miller has had a long run for his money, but he seems to be up against the real thing, and unless the supreme court comes to his rescue he can see his finish. Charles Marble ran like a scared wolf in the late primary election and it is believed he will run like a couple of them at the general election. His roundness is said to be responsible for his fast running. Councilman Blaine might make a few votes for himself if he would take the trouble to explain to the voters that he is not hostile to the inauguration of the municipal railway. Andrew J. Quigley was a candidate for one of the six nominations for city council last Tuesday and he did not seem to run as well as he did on former occasions. It looks as if the voters had tired of seeing him run for office. Frank Goss, representative in the legislature of Washington, has succeeded in having his anti-hanging bill pass the house and the odds are in favor of the bill passing the senate and it is a sure thing the governor will sign it. Howard D. Taylor, speaker of the house of representatives of the Washington legislature, is being severely criticized in Seattle just now over his actions in the Congressional districting of the state, and Representative Foster and his friends are shouting at the top of their voices, "I told you so!" Mr. Foster insisted, prior to the selection of Taylor, that he, Taylor, was fornist King ocunty and he, Foster, now says Taylor himself has demonstrated the correctness of the charge. Thomas Murphine donned his fighting clothes last Wednesday on the floor of the house of representatives, and if Speaker Taylor had not run to the rescue of Edgar A. Sims, the buldozer of the house, there would not have been a grease spot left of him. Murphine had right on his side and Sims had might on his. bled a indW. vtneary hand feeb oaln show feeder vldd Mrs. L. L. Valentine was awarded a $22,200 damages against the Northern Pacific Railway Company by a jury in the sueprior court last Thursday for the loss of a little finger. Had she have lost a hand or an arm, taking the little finger damages as a basis, it is barely possible that she would have bankrupted the company. John Pattison, erstwhile candidate for governor of the state of Washington and at present Democratic National committeeman of the state, has been decided upon by President-elect Wilson as pap distributor of the state. Some time ago, so goes the story, Hugh C. Todd, chairman of the Democratic state central committee, met Mr. Pattison and agreed upon a distribution of the loaves and fishes in the state, and it is barely possible that, President Wilson is acting upon the agreement of the two bosses. J. E. Chilberg, president of the New Chamber of Commerce, was in Olympia last Thursday making a fight for the $500,000 appropriation by the legislature for the Panama Exposition, but it looks as if he was kieking against the pricks, as the members of the bunch grass counties argue, Mr. Chilberg knows nothing about the needs of the agricultural districts of the state and he is arguing from a banker's standpoint. Samuel Hill is nothing if not sensational and he sprung a sensation on the telephone merger of the Pacific Coast, when he appealed to the federal courts to inquire into the merger, on the ground, a telephone monopoly had been created. A federal grand jury is investigating the merger at present and Mr. Hill is so pleased that he smiles whether any one is near him or not. It was Sam Hill that got Governor Hay's goat and it looks as if he has the telephone company on the hip. John P. Hartman, a Seattle attorney, spoke in North Yakima one day this week to a Farmers Industrial congress and told the farmers how to reduce the cost of living. There is no denying that Mr. Hartman is an excellent lawyer, but no one had ever charged him with being a farmer and yet he pleads guilty without even being formally charged. MUCH IN LITTLE. Owing to the strain on the nervous system, persons addicted to the gambling habit are not fitted to perform the activities of common every-day life. Lord Rutland is the newest Shakespeare, so thinks a noted Belgian scholar, who has been devoting considerable time to the real writer of the books, which bear the name of Shakespeare. A move is taking shape that has for its object the uniting of all of the Protestant churches, which will combat the further spread of Catholicism. The Presbyterian branch seems to be taking the lead in the new cult. Charles Bourseul, a noted Frenchman, claimed that he was the real discoverer of the telephone instead of Bell of America as is commonly reported. Friends of Bell do not deny the allegation, but they declare he perfected the telephone, which was equal to being the original discoverer. In order to supply its vast foreign possessions with English-speaking settlers the British Empire is being rapidly drained of its inhabitants.

Willie had been forbidden to try his new skates on Christmas afternoon, because his parents thought the ice was not safe. Consequently, when he appeared in the doorway, dripping wet, there was trouble brewing. "Don't lick me, Ma," said the offender, "because I've just saved three men and two women from drowning." "How?" demanded his mother. "Why," explained Willie, "they were just going on the ice when I broke through." A clergyman, called suddenly away and unable to officiate at the Christmas services in his own church, intrusted his new curate with the duty. On his return home he asked his wife what she thought of the curate's sermon. "The poorest I ever heard," she declared; "nothing in it at all." Later in the day the clergyman, meeting his curate, asked him how he had got along. "Finely, sir, finely," replied the curate. "I didn't have time to prepare anything myself, so I preached one of your sermons." During the Christmas dinner a young Frenchman was seated next to a fine-looking young woman who was wearing a gown which displayed her beautiful arms. "I came near not being here tonight," said she. "I was vaccinated a few days ago and it gives we considerable annoyance." The young foreigner gazed at the white arms of the speaker. "Is that so? he replied. "Where were you vaccinated?" The girl smiled demurely and said: "In Boston." CHARLES MARBLE CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION AS COUNCILMAN Edwin L.

As the Sunday school teacher entered her classroom the Sunday before Christmas she say leaving in great haste a little girl and her still smaller brother. "Why, Mary, you aren't going away!" she exclaimed in surprise. "Pleathe, Mith Anne, we've got to go," was the distressed reply. "Jimmy'th thwallowed hith collection." Didn't Matter. The night watchman of a large hotel saw an apparition in white moving along the hall at 2 a. m. He hastened his steps, and tapped on the shoulder what proved to be a man. "Here, what are you doing out here?" asked the watchman. The man opened his eyes and seemed to come out of a trance. "I beg your pardon," he said, "I am a somnambulist." "Well," said the watchman, "you can't walk around these halls in the middle of the night in your nightshirt, no matter what your religion is." In His Native Element at Least. Belle and Alice were discussing their sweet-hearts. "Alfred, you know, is spending the winter in Florida," said Belle, "and among his Christmas presents he sent me the dearest little alligator you ever saw." "How lovely," said Alice; "but how are you going to keep him?" "I hardly know," said Belle, "but I've put him in Florida water until I hear from Alfred." Not Just What She Meant. The lady had just been introduced to her partner at a holiday dance and was talking to him vivaciously. "Tell me," she said, "who is that terribly homely man over there?" The gentleman looked. "That," he said ponderously, "is my brother." "Oh!" gasped the lady in horrified amazement. "Pardon me. Really, I hadn't noticed the resemblance." In Search of Information. Donald and Jeanie were putting down a carpet. Donald slammed the end of his thumb with the hammer and began to pour forth his soul in language befitting the occasion. “Donald, Donald”” shrieked Jeanie, horrified. “Dinna swear that way!” “Wummun!” vociferated Donald, “gin ye know ony better way now is the time to let me know it!” He Was Going Some. A group of visitors was going through the county jail and a burly negro trusty was called to open doors for the visitors. "How do you like it in here?" one of the women asked. "Like it, Ma'am? If evah Ah gets out o' heah Ah'll go so fer frum here it'll take nine dollars to sen' me a postal card." Unnecessary Instructions. "Now, Tommy," said his mother, giving her final instructions before he left for the Christmas party, "remember, if you're asked to have something you want, you must say, 'Yes, thank you,' and if you don't want it——" Hommy raised his hand. "That's all right, Ma," he said, "you needn't bother about that part of it." A Wise Precaution. "Mr. Grimes." said the rector to the vestryman on the Sunday morning before Christmas, "this morning we had better take up the collection before the sermon." "Indeed!" said the vestryman. "Why?" "Well, answered the rector, "I am going to preach on the subject of economy." Some Advice. The proprietor of the second-hand store was not so tidy as he might have been. One day while standing in front of the store an Irishman approached and asked: "Hov yez anny clean shirts in yer store?" "Sure I have," answered the clothing man, anxious for a sale. "Lots of them, so clean as anything." "Well," said the Irishman, moving away, "go in and put wan of them on." --- Willie's Life-Saving Device. "How?" demanded his mother. The Curate's Plan. Where It Happened. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1913 He Knew. It was the opening of the winter session and the teacher was making up her list of pupils. "Well, my boy," she said to one youth, "what is you name?" "Tom, Ma'am," said the boy promptly. "That does not sound well," she said; "you should always give the full name. You should have said 'Thomas.' And what is your name?" she asked, turning to the next boy. Flushed with the consciousness of having learned something new the young man arose and said proudly: "My name is Jackas." Do as He was Done Bv. The goose had been carved at the Christmas dinner and everybody had tasted it. It was excellent. The negro minister, who was the guest of honor, could not restrain his enthusiasm. "Dat's as fine a goose as I evah see, Bruddah Williams," he said to his host. "Whar did you git such a fine goose?" "Well, now Pahson," replied the carver of the goose, exhibiting great dignity and reticence, "when you preaches a speshul good sermon I never axes you whar you got it. I hopes you will show me de same consideration." A Christmas Toast. Here's to the red of the holly berry, And to its leaf so green; And here's to the lips that are just as red. Worse Than That. "Your Honor," said the prisoner, "you don't know hod heartrending it is to have a wife who can cook but won't do it." "No," said his Honor, and then added feelingly: "Thank goodness, man, you haven't one that can't cook and will do it."
