The Republican Ticket.
Seattle Standard.

The nomination of the Hon. John Leary for
mayor OF the city OF Seattle by the Repu blcan
municipal convention last saturday, marks a
new era in the affairs OF the city and demon
strates clearly and coaclusively that the Rspub-
hcsn party is determined to give the citizens of
Seattle an opportunity TO place a business man
in control of its affairs. His nomination as the
standard bearer OF the party, with but little
opposition, shows that he has the confidence of
large proportion OF the business men OF the
city.
That Mr.. Jeary has at all times been the firm
and tried friend OF the eitys best interests from
the beginning OF his residence here until the
present time. is q fact which will not be denied
by his bitterest political foes. In Sesttes dark
est days Mr.. Leary cast his fortune here, and
here he has remained, and to his splendid
executive ability, financial skill and wonderful
foresight, the city owes much OF its progress
and prosperity. His work for the city in the
past is an earnest of Whist We may expect OF
him in the future.
His time, his money and his talents have been
freely given, that our city might attain its pre-
sent growth and prosperity; and without dis
arrangement to others who have labored for the
development of the city, we can safely say that
the people of Seattle Will show theft apprecia-
ton OF his faithful services, and will again place
him al the helm as they did in 1854, and that he
will prove equal TO the emergency. and will
give the people s clean. pure and upright BUSH
ness administration of city affairs.
The Standard is almost certain thsi, in Mr..
Leary as mayor, all classes and races will find a
Just aud honorable official, who will recon-
mend the recognition of merit and fitness, re-
gardless OF race or nationality, in the distribu-
ton Of official patronage.

comedy, from that incompatible, philo-
sophical, intellectual rake, thief, glutton.
drunk braggart and coward, Falstatf,
whose wonderful wit and humor makes
him always welcome, down to vain and
stupid Justice Shallow, his imbecile asso-
ciate, Silence, and FaIstafFs retainers,
Bsrdolph, Pistol, Mistress Quickly and
Doll Tearsheet. The lights and shadows
of high and low life, both in thought and
action, come and go with the brilliancy
and quickness of the Northern Lights.
The action is full of animation, the field
Is crowded with energetic flesh and blood
humorous figures that are delightfully."- hui
man and sane in their sinfulness, whether
they fly to feast or answer the trumpet
for battle with equal promptness as did
Prince Hal, or seek to be first at the feast
and last in the fight, like Falstaf.
If the world had to burn all but one of
Shakspeare's plays it would keep the
play in which is included the largest ex-
hibition OF the vast sweep of Shakspeare's
genius as humorist; it would keep Fall
staff, Prince Hal and Hotspur and let
Hamlet, Lear, Macbeth and 0thello go.
1t is Shakspeare's genius as a deep hum
orist rather than his morbid tragic power
that stands for his immortal quality. The
wit of Mercutio, the humor of the nurse
and the serving men withdrawn from
Romeo and Juliet" would give Us q
rather tedious tragedy: take the humorist
Faulconbridge out of king John" and the
great charm of the play is departed.
Without Lucio and Elbow Measure for
Measure" would be like Much Ado
About Nothing" without Beatrice, Bene-
dict and Dogherry.
The sprightly wit and humor OF Rosa
It." Twelfth Night" lives chiefly be-
cause of Sir Toby Belch. Sir Andrew Ague
Cheek, Maria, Malvolio and the clown.
Perdita and Autolycus relieve the pathos
of the winters Tale" with humor.
The dIverting picture of Jack Cade and his
murderous communists is the immortal
part of Henry Sixth" The wit of Iago,
like the wit of Richard Third,
is brutal. but fascinating in its sane
malignity. 1t is the humorous side that
holds you in 'Coriolanus." Rabelais drew
Judge Bridlegoose; Shakespeare drew
Justice Shallow; Cervantes satirized
chivalry in Don Quixote and Sancho
Panza; and Shakespeare in the same
spirit of humor sketches the heroes of
Homer and their derider, Thersites.
The immortal writers of the world have
been the great humorists, because they
deal with the sane, serene side of human
nature, not its exceptional, sick, morbid,
tragic mood, and the great actors are the
great comedians, for they give US life
every day life as it rolls along; they do
not bore Us with the lunacies, the passion
ate speech and action of morbid folk. The
real hero is not he whose passion forces q
tragedy, but he whose humane self-re-
straint declines tragedy SO long as he can
keep his life at the level of genteel comedy.

sign board painting; never been any
literature outside of theology, mathe-
mates, mechanics and agriculture.
This wooden-minded, non-imaginative,
pig-headed crank was Diogenes in Greece,
who was the ''Sockless Jerry" of the an
Gent world; a dirty, cunning, dishonest
creature, who despised art, literature, elo-
quence, heroism, personal cleanliness and
the decencies and comforts of life. The
poor, mean philosophy of Diogenes has
been the inspiration of every political and
social crank in history. The architects Of
the Reign of Terror, who meant to make a
bowling wilderness of France, were of the
non-imaginative, wooden-minded sort.
Marar, living like pig in his filthy
straw, Robespierre affecting fru-
gality and humble lodgings, are
types of the pig-headed school of political
agitators, who see nothing on the right
hand or left; who cannot project them
selves beyond themselves, but think new
state can be carved or moulded mechan-
ically to order without regard to the wants,
the desires and the rights OF human na-
ture.
'Sockless" Jerry and the Longobardian
PETER would have been the very o1-eyed
daisies of radical reform by the methods
of the shambles had they lived in those
days. In our day; in our country they
are not dangerous; only irritating and dis
gushing when they do not promote the
gayety OF nations by their antics.
West Point without military
band is like an army without
banners; a bayonet charge without a bat
tie cry; a church without devotional
music or song; farm without shade
tree or flower; civilization without art,
poetry, eloquence, fiction, theater, opera,
social life, lift or recreation of any sort.
''Sockless Jerry" is alatter-day Diogenes,
half demagogue, half crank, a curious
mixture of vanity, cunning and arrogance
born of ignorance.

wAsHINGroN's RELIGIOUS VIEWS.

Washington, like Franklin, Laurens.
Paine, John Adams, Jefferson, Gouver-
neur Morris, Joel Barlow, and other
leading men Of his day. was deist;
that is, his belief correspondent to what
Is protested by Uuitarians today The
testimony on this point is conclusive.
Rev. DR.. Ashbel Greene, distinguished
Presbyterian divine and president of
Princeton College, affirmed that from
intimate acquaintance with Washington
he knew that, while he respectfully con-
formed to the religious customs of
society by generally going to church on
Sundays, if he had any religion at all it
was that of deism." Rev. DR.. Aber-
crombie, of Chrst's church, Philadelphia,
declared that Washington was a deist,
who resented his remonstrance against
his habit of leaving church when the
Lords supper came.
The late Rev. DR.. Henry NJ. Dexter, ed
itor OF the C0RgregGtionalist, said that
there was not line of historical evidence
that Washington regarded Christ as a su-
perhuman being, although he publicly ac-
knowledged in his valedictory letters the
benign influences of the Christian re-
Egjon." Washington did not believe in
Christianity as system of revealed re-
Egion. On his death-bed he made no ref
erence 10 Christ; he gave no sign OF belief
III Him as q Saviour, and although there
was ample time he sent for no clergyman;
he sought none of the consultations of re-
hgion. His private secretary, Mr.. Lear,
says that nothing was said by Washington
during his Illness about prayer, the Bible,
o. Christianity; he died like q stole, not
hike q protesting Christian.
The truth probably Is that Washington
regarded himself IS Christian according
TO his own Interpretation, as did Jefferson,
Franklin and Gouverneur Morris. men
who did not believe in miracles, nor in the
divine inspiration Of the Scriptures, nor in
the superhuman character of Christ.

No comparison can be made for the
Ninth ward, as it was not included in the
city limits at the time of the last regis
tration.
As a matter of fact, then, the First ward
shows smaller per cent. of increase than
any other ward except one. So much for
the "abnormally large registration in
the First ward" and the "bogus vote in
the First ward" by which the ring" ex-
poets to do such dreadful things.
AS 10 the increase in the total registra-
ton of the city, there is nothing extra
ordinary about it. The city has grown
considerably during the past year. 1t
grew a great deal during the previous
year. Registration closed before the last
city election on September 20. 1890
In order to have place on the registra-
ton books a newcomer must have
come to the state at least one year before
that time. Almost all of the new resi-
dents who fiocked to Seattle in the year
succeeding the fire came from other states.
so that practically none of those who came
subsequent to September 20, 1889, had a
place in the last registration.
The increase in the registration in the
eight old wards is about 25 per cent. Leav-
ing out of consideration the increased inter-
est in the election and the increased efforts
OF both parties to insure a full
vote, this represents the growth of
the city between September %, 1889, and
February p, 1s91-a period OF seventeen
months covering the time in which Seat
tie had the most rapid increase in popula-
tion it has ever known. The increase of
% per cent. in the registration is
fully accounted for by the increase
in the city's population during that time
and is borne out by postal statistics,
school statistics and all other statistics
that are resorted TO in measuring the
growth of cities.
The talk of an abnormal registration is
nonsense. 1t is like all the other mis-
representation, distortion of figures and
Justification of records upon which

ton was a religious man, who had faith in
God. even as did Franklin. who in l7s9 re-
minded the first congress that II should
not forget to invoke the favor OF ''the
Father of Light" and declared that God
governs in the affairs Of men.
A deist is today not one who denies re-
vealed religion. but one who denies that
the revelation through the Hebrew race is
the only revelation of God that has been
given to man. Under this definition
Washington, when convicted of being a
deist, still remains not only morally but
spiritually e member of a school of thought
supported by an illustrious company Of
clergymen Of all denominations in both
England and the United States.
