The human race Has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised Against injustice, ignorance and lust, The inquisition yet would serve the law. And guillotines decide our least disputes The few who dare must speak and speak again, To right the wrongs of men." PATRIOTIC PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATION Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States, seems to have forgotten that he is a Democratic president and, according to the precedent of a hundred years or more, must serve his party in preference to serving his country, and is really serving the republic first. It has been a great many years since a man has been elected to the presidency of the United States, that was able to see any good whatever in any measure that was brought forward for the betterment of the affairs of the country unless the measure originated within his party lines. Many of the issues advocated by the Populist some years ago were ridiculed and hooted down because a Republican or a Democrat did not originate them, and when absolutely killed was hunted up and passed by the dominant party and is now a law of the land and doing yeoman service. President Wilson seems to have the good of the country at heart and if he can control the unruly members of his party, who still eling to the idea there is nothing good outside of the Democratic party, then the country may be the beneficiary of a truly patriotic presidential administration. CALIFORNIA'S ANTI-JAPANESE WAR. The hulabaloo that California is kicking up over the proposed alien land law is a burning shame and disgrace. If California wished to prevent aliens from owning land in the state se has a perfect right to, but the law should affect the Englishmen the same as the Japanese and Chinese. Every man and woman that are permitted to enter the United States should be eligible to citizenship and should be encouraged to become a citizen of the republic, and the Orientals should be no exception to the rule. We believe a majority of the citizens of any country have the moral right to say whether or not a certain race or nationality shall enter the ports of the country with the view of living therein, but we do not believe this or any other country has the moral right to deny any person, who comes here to live, the right to become naturalized citizen, if he or she likes. As to the work of the Japanese, they are making of Western Washington a veritable garden and the lands that they clear and put in a high state of cultivation, have increased in value a thousand fold. The land owners in the White river valley, on Vashon island, and other sections, where the Japanese have developed are not a hundredth part as fearful of the yellow peril as the members of organized labor, who labor more to cut down the time for work and increase the amount of money they get for the few hours they pretend to work, than they actually toil. The Pacific Coast would be the beneficiary if a million Japanese and Chinese farmers were permitted to land and lease the lands along the coast. RICH MEN AND YOUNG GIRLS. There is no doubt of the fact that "rich men who take advantage of poor girls" and bring about their moral undoing are the most despiceable whelps that ever drew the breath of life, but they have done so SEATTLE, WASH., FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913 since the mind of man runneth not to the contrary and they will continue to do so for generations yet to come. The higher ups seem to take a fiendish delight in preying upon the ones lower down. Because, however, this has been and is being done is no reason why those caught in the act should not be punished and the more severely they are punished the less keen others in the future will try to do so. Men however seem to look with complacency upon other men who rob young girls of their virtue and it is only once in a great while that the officers of the law can convict one guitly of the heinous crime. Let's hope that the entry of women into the body politics will bring about a radical change on this question and that no case of white slavery will be tried unless at least half of the jury be females. PERSONS TALKED ABOUT: G. W. H. Davis, secretary of the Brewers' Association, has been in conference with the representatives of organized labor for the past week endeavoring to adjust threatened labor troubles. The representatives will reach an amicable agreement. Editors Bone and Blethen, respectively of the P.-I. and Times of Seattle, are both in the east, whither they went to attend the meeting of the Associated Press, and, according to dispatchs from New York, they were permitted to put their feet under the "big ones'" table. Judge Macintosh is now holding court in the attic and while he may not develop into the attic philosopher, yet there is no doubt of him being the attic jurist of the Northwest, at least for the present. Judge Macintosh is the state's only native son on the bench and he is making good. Frank McDermott, president of the Bon Marche, is making preparations to have the store celebrate its anniversary within ten days and great are the preparations he is making. Those connected with the Bon Marche do things with a hum. A. B. Ernst has been reappointed a member of the park board and he semes as well pleased over the appointment as if he had been made postmaster of Seattle by Prident Wilson. He is devoted to the park work and gives up a great deal of his time to its needs. Judge John E. Humphries of King county, who had the county commissioners arrested because they would not provide him with an American flag with 48 stars on it, has plenty now. Since he made the war he has been presented with three. He is still camping on the trail of the commissioners, however, as one wall of his court room is still bare.—Chinook Observer. Dr. Adna W. Leonard leaves for the east April 28th to be gone five weeks. While in the east he will lectur in many of the larger cities. He has been in Seattle about two years and is considered one of her foremost divines from the point of ability as well as zealousness. George Turner, Washington's most noted Democratic politician, who was popular with Republicans, seems to have incurred the cold shoulder of the Wilson administration and he is not only not to be consulted as to appointments in the state, but he is to likewise lose the position to which he was appointed by President Taft. John T. Gayton, who was messenger of the federal court in Seattle under Judges Hanford and Howard, but let out when Howard failed to be confirmed, has been reappointed and is now on duty. In speaking of his appointment the P.-I., for the first time in many months, told about it and neither quoted Mr. Gayton as using "nigger jargon" nor did it bring out the fact that he was a Negro. "The sun do move." --- VOLUME XV. NUMBER 4 R. V. Ankeny, one of the Seattle bankers charged with accessory to the failure of the Schricker bank, who was to be tried in May will not be tried until some time in June. Senator Poindexter practically has gone over to the Democratic party, judging from information which leaked out recently. During the special session of the senate Poindexter went to Democratic leaders and asked them to provide for him on committees, fearing the Republicans would treat him badly because he left their party. The Democrats as a result of his appeal, gave Poindexter a small chairmanship, but that was all they were willing to do for him, and it was given, it is understood, on his promise to vote with the Democrats on the tariff bill and on other close party issues. He therefore appears to have dickered himself back into the Democratic party, though openly professing still to be a bull moose.—Tenino News. H. R. Cayton, of the Seattle Republican, was in the city this week on business. The rumor is out that Cayton is to sell his Republican and devote his time to a magnificent apartment house. If Cayton disappears from the journalistic field, the cause will have lost one of its brightest and most scintillating writers.—Tacoma Forum. Jesse S. Jones is to retire from the public service board May 15th, after a continuous service of six years. Mr. Jones has made an excellent servant of the people and it is too bad that all of his experience is to be thrown away and the whole board placed in new hands. John H. Schively seems to be a hoodoo to insurance companies as the two he has connected himself with have gone into the hands of receivers. He went east soon after retiring from the office of insurance commissioner and accepted the management of a large insurance company, and he had hardly been installed into office before the company was placed into the hands of a receiver. Judge Cushman, in order to relieve the crowded calendar, has been holding court in Seattle for the past week. The appointment of Judges Ronald and William Hickman Moore is said to be out of the question and it is also said Judge Chadwick has no show. Rumor has it, Judge Ronald's connection with the Krug affair has hurt his chances and rumor has it that Moore's testimony in a case in which he was financially interested, has blasted his chances of appointment. Judge Chadwick is reported to have been too outspoken in some campaign, which blasted his opportunities to go on the federal bench. New men are now being considered and an appointment may not be made for months. Hugh C. Todd, chairman of the Democratic central committee, who managed the late campaign, is developing into a great publicity agent. It is reported that he does not even intrust his publicity work to a lieutenant, but does it all himself. He is working to be the big Democrat of the Northwest under the Wilson administration.

All orders by telephone or telegraph promptly attended to. Telephone East 13 2 The friends of Jacob Furth in the Northwest and they are legion, are standing firmly by his side in this his hour of trouble. Those who KNOW and have had dealings with him and the Puget Sound National bank, will require more than a jury of twelve ordinary men and women to shake their confidence. Jacob Furth and the Puget Sound National bank, are pioneers in this country and their names are nearly synonymous terms. The Puget Sound National bank is built on honor and its chief cornerstone is Jacob Furth. Petit juries may come and go like Tennyson's babbling brook, but the monument that Jacob Furth has built in the hearts of his countrymen for honor and integrity will live forever.—Tacoma Forum. Jacob Furth was found guilty of complicity in connection with the failure of the Schrecker bank at La Conner, undoubtedly much to the surprise of a majority of people who have been watching the proceedings more or less closely. Of course the case will be appealed, if not tried again, and the final outcome will be in doubt for some time to come.—Anacortes Citizen. We do not believe much in penitentiary punishment at best. It seldom accomplishes any object and, in this case it will certainly accomplish none. The farmers of Skagit county will be as far from regaining their lost money as they were on the day of the bank failure. If Furth has been rightfully found guilty of a criminal offense, he deserves some punishment, but it is rather a pity that the law governing his case and the cases of others like him, for there have been many Jacob Furths, has no distributive feature. We have no criticism to make of the verdict, but we do deplore most heartily the apparent unwillingness on the part of the banker's friends to bow to the edict of the court. When business men, even former judges of the supreme court, admitting their ignorance of the evidence and the facts in the case, take it upon themselves to criticise a jury, it is little wonder indeed that the seed of contempt and disrespect for courts and court procedure thereby sown in the public mind blossoms forth later in the scarlet flower of anarchy.—Bellingham (Labor) Journal. The Conviction of Banker Furth. Had the news gone out from the Whatcom court house that Banker Furth, of Seattle, had been murdered in cold blood, instead of having been convicted of a crime conected with the failure of the LaConner bank, probably such announcement would have created no more consternation in the Queen City than did the news of his conviction. The general surprise and regret at the unexpected outcome of the trial is joined in by the editor of the Courier, knowing the kindly and benificent instincts of Jacob Furth. It would seem that some subtle or uncanny condition of things in Whatcom county had conspired to humble the rich because of a prejudice COUNTRY PRESS ON JACOB FURTH Hundreds and thousands of good men and women worked for the success of the court house bonds last fall because they wanted King county to have a new court house and because they believed that the architect, who had planned the proposed building knew what he was talking about, when he said $945,000 would be sufficient money to build it, eight stories high, fronting on four streets. It now transpires that that amount is not more than a quarter enough and that the amount is subject to petty grafts to the extent of some $50,000. It does seem that men would try tomake a pretense at being honest and on the square and in the open in their dealings with their fellow men. Evidently nothing is planned by officials that is not subject to a side graft by "experts" or "scalpers." King county is sadly in need of a court house and the said court house should be on the plat of ground lying between Third and Fourth avenues and James and Jefferson streets, but she does not need a court house bad enough to permit alleged "experts" and grafters to appropriate a tenth of the amount it will take to build it, for their own private gains. Whether or not there is anything in the newspaper stories, which reflect very severely on the integrity of the architect of the proposed court house building, we know not, but enough has been brought out that the matter be given a thorough investigation even if it takes a court proceeding to bring out the facts. Architects come pretty nearly knowing what a proposed building, for which they themselves draw the plans, will cost and we can not see how an architect could under-estimate the cost of a building to such an extent as that for the proposed court house. While a great majority of the citizens of the county favor the Yesler site for a court house, yet they do not want to be robbed because they favor that particular location. The fight over the building of the new court house for King county is becoming more bitter each week. The county commissioners recently passed a resolution to proceed with the construction of a three story building covering the entire block. However, the municipal League of Seattle enjoined the commissioners from the sale of bonds. So the fight continues.—The White River Journal. existing among the class of people predominating on the jury of conviction.—Skagit County Courier.

The people of Seattle are greatly exercised over the conviction --- of Jacob Furth, their leading banker and financier, who was accused of abetting another in receiving bank deposits when the institution was known to be insolvent.

While a great court house, yet they do not want County is becoming more bitter to proceed with the construc- ter, the municipal League of Se- e fight continues.—The White The Furth Verdict. Every right thinking person must deplore the miscarrage of justice of which Jacob Furth has been made a victim. Convicted on appeals to passion and class prejudice that would have done credit to the inflammatory hatred of a Goldman, one of the foremost constructive financiers of the Northwest has been declared guilty of a violation of the banking laws of the state. From an admitted set of facts, from letters simple and frank, a classconscious jury has seen fit to draw inferences that have no warrant in common sense. It is a triumph of demagogy which will not be without its reaction. Too many people have known Mr. Furth, day in and day out, for the better part of a lifetime to accept the word of an emotionally biased jury. Too many men in this city and in this state owe their financial existence to him to believe for an instant that he is a violator of any banking law. Too many men have found him their last refuge from ruin to believe that he would jeopardize his untarnished name for a few dollars. Mr. Furth, like every banker above the pawnbroker class, loaned more money on character than he did on tangible security. All over Seattle there are business men who, in their time of need, had little more than their character to offer him, and these men do not hesitate to asy that they do not feel that their receipts for repayment square their obligations to Mr. Furth. But this was not part of the trial. The jury was appealed to as poor men to convict a rich man; as farmers to convict a banker. To Mr. Furth, in the closing years of his long and honorable life, the result cannot be but crushing. It is not in human nature, certain of innocence, to find complete consolation in the unabated confidence and the additional esteem of those who know. There still remain the pain of injustice and the resentment against the wrong. But Mr. Furth stands today as he has always stood, a big man, fair dealing, right-thinking, honorable in all ways, a credit to Seattel and the Northwest. Seattle Post-Intelligencer, April 19. Creditors of the defunct private bank of W. E. Schricker & Co. of LaConner, how do you like the above? You who have keenly felt the financial loss; you widows and orphans, who were practically left penniless when the Schricker & Co. bank closed its doors, does it help to alleviate your financial circumstances or help heal the gaping wound produced by this banking fiasco? Not by any means. Is the above editorial in keeping with the true facts in the case? Those who attended the trial as witnesses or spectators, say the evidence produced by the state was convincing and overwhelming in its nature. Why, then, all this commotion and going into hysterics over what appears to be a just verdict? The Post-Intelligencer tries to make its readers believe that it was a triumph of demagogy; that the jury was biased on account of Jacob Furth being a wealthy man. The jury, twelve men, or more accurately speaking, eleven men and one woman tried and true, after hearing the evidence, the Continued on page 4.

(Continued from Page 2) pleas of opposing counsel and listening to the charge given by Judge Hardin, rendered an honest verdict. How could they have done otherwise? This stigma cast on the jury by the P.-L. and the Seattle Chamber of Commerce is deeply resented not only by the creditors of the Schricker & Co. private bank, but by the people of LaConner and Skagit county generally. And, in conclusion, isn't it fair to presume that the citizens of LaConner and Skagit county who suffered so severely and acutely from this bank failure, have, or at least should have, as much rights in the premises as the select friends of Jacob Furth among the "higher ups" in Seattle? We think so. If not, why not?—LaConner Mail. SLANDER.

For the week commencing Monday night, April 28, Bailey and Mitchell will present "The Fortune Hunter." It was this play in which Fred Niblo, Josephine Cohan and Frank Bacon were starred and, it was presented here at the Metropolitan Theatre last season. It is a comedy wherein strongly contrasting characters are met, mingle and make a tale of absorbing human interest. The play ran for one solid year in New York, and will be presented here with all of its elaborate scenic equipment and the rural features that won it fame and success in its original production. Nat Duncan, a young man who Rainier BEER has come to the end of his rope, has a good friend in a rich broker. The broker has staked Nat time and again, but he has always been a failure in the city. As a last resource, the broker puts a proposition to Nat, which, the broker thinks, will put Nat on his feet again. He tells Nat to go to a small town, be a model young man and marry some rich man's daughter. Nat agrees to try and the broker finances the scheme, starting Nat out with $1.-500. HELPING THE WITNESS A Swede was being examined in a case in a Minnesota town where the defendant was accused of breaking a plate glass window with a large stone. He was pressed to tell how big the stone was, but he could not explain. "Was it as big as my fist?" asked the nervous judge, who had taken over the examination from the lawyer in the hope of getting some results. "It bane bigger," the Swede replied. "Was it as big as my two fists?" "It bane bigger." "Was it as big as my head?" "It ban about as long, but not so thick!" replied the Swede, amid the laughter of the court. Apropos of winter charity, J. G. Phelps Stokes, the New York capitalist, told a story at the recent convention of college societies. "Two shivering urchins," he said, "stood on a bitter January morning before a picture shop. An Alma Tadema was in the shop window, and one of the urchins, studying it, said: “‘Who was this Nero, Tommy? Wasn’t he a fellar that was allus cold like us?’” “No,” said Tommy. “That was Zero, another feller altogether.’” Mrs. Jones—My son’s six feet in his boots. Mrs. Smith—Six feet in his boots?
