Ladysmith now speaks English
as usual.
The Englisd are being Bored
for peace at this writing.
If Dick Warner had half as
much pride as he has wind, he
would—well, he would know when
he was sat upon.—Ex.
It really does seem to us that
Tommy Church and his Review
deal too extensively in glittering
generalities when it comes to fac
tional Democratic politics.
A small vituperative sheet pub
ished at Blame still continues to
have the anti-Wilson nightmare,
though it has frequently announced
John L. Wilson deader than a
door nail.
Idiots are constitutionally pre
vented from voting in this state.
Juding from the recent Democra
tic conventions this law has been
frequently broken in the past, and
we suggest that in the future it be
strictly adhered to.
The Republicans of King county
have three candidates for governor,
Humes, Guie and Frink. In the
mix-up that is sure to follow An
keny's stalking horse Humes
stands a good chance to be shut
out of the race.—Walla Walla
Argus.
No, Mr. Tacoma News-Herald,
Avidupois Populist Tugwell will
not bolt even if John R Rogers is
re-nominated for governor. Tug
is from Texas where "yaller dorgs"
are supported if the dorg is only a
Democratic one. No, no, he will
never bolt.
Confusion will doubtless reign
supreme at Nome when the World
and his, family arrives there, but
we are repeatedly told that there
is gold enough for all who go, and
gold is a splendid pacifier for
restless humanity's nerves.
Uncle Sam drove a pretty clover
bargain when he bought Alaska
for $7,290,000, for that frozen land
gave up a half a billion dollars in
gold and silver last year, and is
expected to give up twice that
much during the coming gold
season.
We learn from the Issaquah
Independent that it proposes to be
short on the graft game, but a
little weed and a bitter seed on the
gaff game, when it comes to poli
tical enemies. Well, a good
grafter frequently develops into a
regular rag time gaffer.
Some of the state papers are in
clined to treat Bryan's allegation
that, "I am going to be elected
president next fall" as the stale
chestnut he has preserved over
from the four years ago campaign.
Mr. Bryan seems greatly in love
with the political mysterious.
"Fusion was a failure," solilo
quises the Pullman Herald, and
permit us to add, likewise a fizzling
fungus the odor from which has
sickened a great many Jeffer
sonian Democrats. It was a fail
ure, it is a failure, and, it will be a
failure forever mure world with
out end.
Within the past seven days not
less than 2000 persons have left
Seattle for Nome, and yet the
streets are crowded by day and by
night as though not a single person
out of the ordinary had left the
city. What better evidence do
you want that Seattle is the Hub
of the Northweat?
Our Fusion contemporary the
Mt. Vernon Argus thinks that
Seattle has so many Democrats
that one hall would not hold them
all. Well, neighbor, it was not
so much the incapacity of the hall
to hold them as it was the torrid
ness of the hall in which the herd
had been corralled.
We agree with the Whatcom
Reveille that Seattle is getting to
be a pretty bad town when a
Whatcom man is buncoed in it.
The bunco man must have first
given the Whatcom man the
money and then buncoed him out
of it for practice, for we feel quite
safe in saying that the Whatconi
man brought nothing to Seattle
from Whatcom that a bunco man
would have.
An Oklahoma girl who adver
tised for a husband got him. The
total expense for advertising and
wedding outfit amounted to $11,
and within a year her husband
died leaving life insurance policy
of $3,000. And still some people
claim it don't pay to advertise.—
Ex.
It is to be regretted that the
United States Supreme Court has
handed Kentucky back to the
blood-thirsty murderous Democra
tic party from which it had been
snatched by the Republicans,
despite the nefarious election laws
passed by the Democrats to fetter
Democracy about Kentucky for
another hundred years to come.
Brother Patterson of the Cos
mopolis Enterprise has plenty of
advertising space for sale to all
kind of partisans, he. announces,
but his editorial columns are un
purchasable by any kind of a par
tisan. That, he unequivically
reserves for his own politics, and
that is rock ribbed Republican
ism. Good for Pat
"Syndicate editorials" continue
to hold high hand among some of
the brethren. Were we going to
buy our brains we would much
prefer to buy some that were not
being used by the entire gang.
Brighten up your wits, fellows,
and fire that stuff in the stove and
give us good crisp Evergreen State
thoughts. You can do it if you
will only brace up and think you
can.
Spokane is classed as the second
city in the state by the Adams
county News, a recent census
showing it quite ahead of Tacoma.
There is no denying the fact that
there is more truth than poetry in
the allegation. Seattle and Spo
kane are natural political allies
and it showed very poor business
tact on the part of Seattle's repre
sentatives to cause a spirit of
animosity rather than friendliness
to come between them.
The Southern Democracy dis
franchises the Negro, runs jim
crow cars on tbe railroads, taxes
them without giving them repre
sentation, lynches those whom it
chooses to accuse, without the
formality of a trial, and yet holds
up its haods in holy horror be
cause they fear the Republicans
are going to -'oppress" the natives
of Porto Rieo.—Ellensburg Cap
ital.
The Pie-maker in the Seattle
Republican charges that Levi
Ankeny contributed $8000 to the
Humes campaign fund in the
recent city election in Seattle. As
the Republican supported Humes
for election, after opposing his
nomination, it may be in a position
to know what it is talking about,
but still we have our doubts.—Mt
Vernon Argus. Are you measur
ing our corn by your half a bushel
measure ?
Editor Mays of the Pomeroy
Independsnt does not hesitate to
pronounce the man that predicts
McKinley will carry the state of
Washington as a "nameless liar."
The state went Republican two
years ago against "fusion;" Demo
cracy is now hopelessly divided, as
will be seen from last Saturdays
state convention. Now in the face
of all this, Bro. Mays who appears
to be the liar, the man that has
alleged or the man that is denying?
When one has finished reading
the Vancouver-Register -Demo
crat he must be thoroughly convin
ced in himself that all Republi
cans are either corporation thieves
or political tools of such criminals,
while ail Democrats, Pops and
Fusionists are simply angels with
out wings. He, who can always
see faults in his neighbor, but per
fectness in himself, is like unto
the man that could see the pigeon
on the barn but could never'get a
glimpse of the barn.
King county does not desire to
beat i rank W. Cushman out of a
renomination for congress and the
Hoquium Washingtonian prevari
cates when it says she do^s. King
county wants the governor and it
proposes to have it. She has
three candidates for the position,
but that is her own affair, you
can rest assured that she will pre
sent but one candidate to the next
state convention for its considera
tion. Be sure you are right and
then fire away, Mr. Editor.
George Washington, the father
of the United States, and its first
president, according to the Coif ax
Commoner was at the time of his
election to the presidency, the
richest man in the country, even
at that day being a millionaire.
If that be true, and who would
doubt it since it comes from a
Democrat, how our country has
departed from its original customs,
since no president during the last
of the nineteenth century was
worth but little more than the
salary he drew for holding the
office, such is certainly true of the
present chief executive, William
McKinley.
We are told by the~News that
the City of Ballard has grown in a
comparatively short time from
3000 to 7000. That the citizens
are beginning to take a real live
interest in their thriving munici
pality and Ballard is no longer
over awed at its close proximity
to Seattle. We congratulate Bal
lard in its rapid strides, and es
pecially do we congratulate it for
showing its further good sense by
building principally toward Se
attle, as it will be but a few years
more when both will be jammod
into one. Grow on, sister, grow on.
It occurs to us that the Olym
pia Capital's syndicate politician
tried to be a bit satirical when he
wrote, "some trade follows the
Flag, as all the coffin manufact
ures report heavy orders from the
Philippines." Our Demo-Pop
journalist should not loose sight
of the fact that during Demo
cracy's reign in this country coffin
manufactures went to the wall as
badly as any other kind of indus
tries, simply because times were
too hard for people to die. People
know they can get a swell burial
now, hence they die without re
grets. It makes a whole lot of
difference, old man, with the
average American citizens when
the smoke stacks are in operation
and the wheels of industry are
moving, as to dying just the same
as to living.
Hon. William H. White
has been appointed to fill
the vacancy on the Supreme
bench of this state by Gov
ernor Rogers. This is the
goal of Mr. White's legal
ambition, the United States
senate, being the goal of
political ambition. He will
begin the duties of the of
fice June Ist next. In ac
cepting the position, which
he has so long sought, Mr.
White severs a law partner
ship between himself and
Mr. Munday, which has
covered a period of nine
te*n years duration and has
perhaps done as much
business as an}^ other firm
in the city,
Second Deputy Prosecut
ing Attorney Walter S.
Fulton has tendered his re
signation to his chief,
James McElroy, to take ef
fect June Ist next. Mr.
Fulton was prompted to
take this step owing to the
fact that his uncle was re
tiring from the law firm of
White & Munday. and he
being a junior partner in
the firm would be needed
in the office to carry on the
business.
