make your usual bad break about
this; it is only expressing a choice
between two men, that the teachers
are guilty of. Your man, Short,
was there, and made his fight, but
the teachers acting as noa-parti-

The three Judicial candidates of

gin to realize they will be left.
They are like the man who got left
by the train. He ran fast enough,
but did not start soon enough.
They are running fast enough, but
they should have started several
years ago to qualify themselves for
such a race. They should have
trained under Blackstone and Kent
few years, then they would not
be "brieAess barristers."
Irappears that counterfeit politi-
cal news is made in Utah, as well
as counterfeit money. The Tribune
and Geo. M. Cannon are Claiming
everything" for the G. o. p.
Don't let them pass such news on
you, it is but a clumsy imi-
tation. The truth is, ''This is a
Democratic Year." and there will
be a food against Republican mis-
rule in Utah. Those fellows
remind one of the Antediluvians
who told old Noah, that cit would
not be much of shower after all. >"
We desire to express our I'M

BosToN, July 10.-Four cities on the
Pacific coast are going to put forth
strenuous efforts before the board of
trustees of the Christian Endeavor So
ciety for the 1897 convention. Seattle
was the last of the four cities to come in
line for this honor, the others having
been Los Angeles, Portland and San
Francisco.
William H. Lewis, one of the delegates
from Seattle, spoke warmly on the SUBJ

gone cheerful over all the states and are
thoroughly convinced, not only that we
can suitably entertain the '97 conven-
tion, but that Seattle is the place on the
coast for it.

Seattle and the state of Washington

ness men who are taking an active part
and will devote their energies to making
the convention a benefit to Seattle.

CONCERNING PIANOS.
KImban's Methods a Menace to the
Entire Trade.
IChicago Musical Neys.l

lChicago Musical News.l
The following advertisement has been
given a prominent position in the daily
papers of Washington, D. c., and has
been printed in the Chicago Musical
of Portland. We desire to call the atten-
tion of the public to it.
The unfairness of the assertions it con-
tains needs no emphasizing, for they
will appear at once to the sense of right
inherent in every legitimate dealer in
pianos all over the country:
Next Tuesday will be special bar
gain day on pianos at our store. We
have found some grand bargains in new
Upright Pianos (not the celebrated Kim
ball pianos), and propose to give the
public a chance to secure new pianos
next Tuesday at manufacturers whole
sale prices.
The prices Tuesday next for these new
elegant Upright pianos will be only $149
and $3.50 each. Part time given if de-
sired. These pianos will be on exhibit
at our store all day Monday, but no sales
will be made from this lot until Tuesday,
and will continue that day only.
w. w. KIMBALL, Co.,
MetZerott Building, Cor. 18th and F. SITS.
The Kimball Company may regard
such methods as fair and honorable, but
they are open to the severest criticism in
attempting to destroy the piano trade in
Washington after many years of honor
able work to promote it.
The unfairness of the card lies in the
assertion that the pianos which are to
Io OF Sol o1 ,0k 10
by the Kimball company. Therein is
the poison.
This whole scheme is perpetrated to
give the Kimball pianos position to
which their merits do not entitle them.
Although the Kimball advertisement de-
clares these are not Kimball pianos
which are to be slaughtered it does not
enhance the value of their own instru-
ments.
Those who are familiar with the Kim
ball pianos know perfectly we'll that the
makers can afford to sell them at just
such ruinous prices as are quoted for
other instruments in their possession at
Washington.
What is there in the Kimball piano to
justify this step? Nothing.
The Kimball company make one of the
cheapest pianos in the United States.
And after the Kimball piano is made
ready for the market it is not then worth
a place above low rank.
When you come to think of 1t, can you
name any genuine, .tirstcIass house that is
selling the KimbaH pianos?
The Kimball managers may consider
they have made brilliant stroke, but
they are merely using gigantic power to
foist cheap make on The market.
The question is also one of broader
than mere local purview.
Such advertisements as these cut at the
root of the piano industry for they mis-
lead private buyers.
We shall not let this subject stop here
It is fraught with grave danger to the
entire trade, and, although the Kimhall
company is composed of schrewd schem-
ers, they may find they have far over
stepped the bou nds of legitimate bust
ness dealing.

Our Colored Population.

According to late report of the cen
sus bureau, there is no danger that the
United States will ever be overwhelmed
by its negroes. The black population is
increasing, it is true, but nothing like
IN proportion as rapidly as the white.
The first reliable statistics which
DR.. Henry Gannett, the census ex-
aminer, finds on the subject are those of
1890. Then there were in the country
3,l72, 006 whites, 757, 20S negroes. From
that time on, counting in the slaves
brought into tie country from Africa
and the increase in births here, there
was a continuous increase till, at the
1890 census, the colored population
amounted to 7,470, 049. In 1890 the
white population was in round numbers
so, 900, 900. The negroes had increased
about tonfold, the whites eighteenfold.
In 1890 the negroes constituted one-fifth
of the population. in 1890 less than one
eighth. The long line of figures shows
that the blacks do not increase so rapid
ly in freedom as they did in slavery-an
argument that may be used favorably
or unfavorably, according as one looks
at it. A large part of the increase dur
ing the early years of this century, how.
ever, when the percentage was the great.
est, was undoubtedly due to the slave
trade. In the decade from 1850 to 1860,
when the slave trade had nearly ceased,
the proportion of negro to white popu
lation was IA. IS per cent During the
first ten years of this century 1t was ovel
10 per cent.
There was an apparent increase in
the percentage Of growth from 1870 tc
1880, but that is now believed to be
due more to defective enumeration, In
1870 than to actual gain in 1880. Dur
ing the last decade the proportion ol
negro to white population was only
11.0S per cent. So that relatively to the
whites the negro population is now les'
that two-thirds as numerous as 1t wal
100 years ago. The statistician findl
that the blacks marry younger and have
on the average, shorter lives than thu
whites.
We are rather surprised to find fur
ther that the drift Of the negro popula
tion is at present away from cities to
ward the country. At the same time
they are moving from the border states
into the gulf states and those of the
south Atlantic border. Finally one To
grets to learn that the per cent of crimi.
nails is greater among tho blacks than
the whites, while there are at least as
many paupers. But, on the other hand,
school attendance is rapidly gaining
among the negroes.
