At length the sun has set,
The shadows gather round,
But let us not forget
A joy that has been found.
A gentle soul has left
The griefs that here abound,
But. when the clouds are cleft,
The snow touched head is crowned
with laurels due to one.
Who, tho of modest mien,
Showed many deeds well done,
Asking no borrowed sheen.

Altho' tits but a tear,

Justice has wreaked it's awful vengeance
on Miss Flagler, he young white lady that
Wilfully shot down an innocent little col
ored boy in Washington, D. c., some
months ago, by having the family carriage
to take her to Jail where she was retained
in confinement for three long and dread
/ full hours. This is the most sham aful
piece of legal mockery that has ever been
perpetrated in a civilized land or that
/ was ever placed upon docket book. Had
the scales been reversed and had a young
colored woman so reckIessly shot down
some prominent white mans little son. no
power could have hardly saved her from
being lynched, and certainly no power
could or would have tried to save her from
life Imprisonment, if not hanging Such
justice, right in the mouth of congress
and under it's immediate supervision, is a
blot and a disgrace to American liberty
and supposed justice. But Miss F1agler
and her distinguished family now have a
family record to which they can point
with pride-it is that they have q. mur-
deress in the family. The average Ameri-
can girls have gone crazy all but with
in the past few years in getting an op-
portunity to wed some foreign count and
thus bring honor to their family, but Mr.
Flagler's family can now boast of gem
uine murderess. which to them may be
equally as honorable as to be a countess.
and it may give rise to a, new fad, and
then this lady will have the honor of being
the originator.

The disclosures Of the ten-cent freehold
ers' scheme in the P.-I this morning ought
to be sufficient proof that the proposed new
charter should be defeated. To incorp0r-
ate this freeholder clause in the charter
was but a hoax to deceive a certain class
of voters into the bell # that the new char
ter was all that they wished and that it
was relief from certain bad features of
the present charter, when in a fact it is
the worse kind of a piece of demagOgery.
No one shall hold an office but freehold
er says the new charter and then the
very same gang of men that are response
BILE for that clause in the proposed new
charter are the same men that are now
Matching up this ten-cent freeholder prop
osition by having men to pay ten cents
into the campaign fund of DR.. Jordan, and
thereby become a shareholder in a lot in
the city, and then be declared rightful free
holders. What a baseless fabric of
vision, and what a gigantic fraud both the
charter and this ten-cent freeholders'
scheme ali are. This new charter that is
to be voted upon next Tuesday should be
turned down by an overwhelming major
ity. The adoption of it would be no less
a calamity than the election of DR.. Jor-
dan mayor of the city. Jordan and his
friend planned all that is mean, low, VIC
ious and contemplate in this proposed
new charter, and it should be turned down
on that account The instrument is a
Populist doctrine and they make their
boasts on the streets that it is their ideal
charter, and if adopted Seattle will virtual
ly be at the mercy of the Populist party
in the future. The charter should be vot-
ed down if for no other reason. Let no
man who loves Seattle raise his hand Il
vote for this proposed new charter no
quicker than you will vote for Jordan, the

The committee consisting of MeSSrS.
Walker and Dixon CMr. Gross not being
able to attend) waited upon the central
committee last night in their committee
rooms and after laying their grievances
before the committee, the points were IN
formally discussed by all present. The
central committee said that it was unable
to say what places would be given to col
ored men, but it assured them that GER
tain positions would be given to them,
and that the committee as well as other
colored men in the city would be consult
ed before any appointments were made.
Or, in other words, substantial recogni-
ton would be granted the colored voters,
but the responsibility of such appoint
ments would fall on the shoulders Of the
colored men themselves; that is, if Sood
men were not selected the colored voters
themselves would have to bear the blame
for such unworthy officials. This was sat
isfactory to the coIored gentlemen, and
they assured the central committee that
they and the most of the other colored
men in the city would Go all they could,
as they have in the past, to see that the
present municipal ticket would be elected.

ticipation of the agreement the Republican

The Colored Independtn Club will hold a
very important meeting Thursday even
ing at the Red Mems hall, and every mem
ber of the club is expected to be present
The club has had a committee interceding
before the campaign committees OF the
various parties asking recognition for tne
colOred voters, and THIS committee MAKES
it's report Thursday evening, nence the ad-
visibility of all being present.
W hen the president, John w. Riggs, was
seeu this morning at his place of business
he said to a reporter of this paper: Let
if Misunderstood that this club, so far as
the president has got power to control 1t,
is not looking for a few paltry boodllng
dollars What 1 hope to do is to get rec
ognition for the colored voters. Should
you hear of any of the members that is
trying to sell the votes of the members of
this club for few lousy dollars, contrary
to the instructions of this club, you should
expose him in the fullest and you will do
me a favor, and 1 think the same would
be said by all of the better class of mem
bers in the club. The colored voters have
been sold out by blood-suckers too much
and if | have any influence with the club
and it's members, and L think 1 have, this
kind of business has got to stop. [ do not
know that any one is doing this, but should
they do it, do not hesitate to expose them
and you will be doing the respectable col
ored men. who intend to make this their
home, al great favor. Our club heartily
indorses your course in making a fight for
recognition of the colored voters, who
have never been recognized to any great
extent, if really any. We feel certain that
you will have things different in this coun-
ty and for that reason a vote of thanks
was unanimously voted you at the last
meeting. Our club consists of some of the
best citizens in the city, and it is by no
means made up entirely of grafterS, as it
has been intimated by some grafters them
selves, who were barred from the club
from the fact that they were well-knoWn
grafters and themselves largely response

At the last Republican primary election
there were 3,40O votes cast. There is no
great revolt in the party since that time.
In fact, if there is any, it will be hard
to find, hence it is reasonable to suppose
that the most of that vote will be cast for
the party nominees Tuesday. But admit
ting that Mr.. Gilman will get some of
them, which is extremely doubtful, the
number will be so small that it will be
more than doubly offset by the Democratic
votes that will come to the party. Thus it
will be readily seen that the Republican
party will poll at least 1900 votes, which,
allowing for the registered votes that VIII
not go out to vote on election day, it win
give Mr.. Black a majority of ALT he votes
cast, for not more than 1880 votes of the
$500 registered will be cast, and A. 900 will
be more than a majority.

STOLE A STORE

ed out to be a noted burglar. Detective
Corbett and Officer Griffith went to
Moore's room in the Olympic house, at
the corner of West and Virginia streets,
and after a considerable talk with Ellen
Brown a half-breed found there, they sue
ceeded in unearthing enough tools to start
a machine shop, sawmill or ship yard. The
tolls were taken to police headquarters,
where they have been identified as the
proprty of the Vulcan & Hicks iron works

Frank D. Blacks opportunities to be
elected mayor are much brighter since the
Democratic convention indorsed Jordan
Should the Democrats have nominated a
candidate for mayor such a nominee would
have received all the better element of the
Democratic voters. The other elements
may have supported Jordan, as they will in
this case, but those votes that the straight
Democratic nominee would have gotten
will now go to the Republican nominee, Mr.
Black, and he will be many votes stronger
thereby whereas he would have been the
loser otherwise. The Republican ticket
will get the party strength and large
part of the Democratic vote, and the in
dicatiOns are now that he will be elected
mayor by a majority rather than a plur-
ality.

Hon. John B. Allen will address the rat
ification meeting tonight. There is not a
man in the state who is more cOnVinc-

and it is always a pleasure to hear him dis
cuss the topics of the day in the political
world. That Mr.. Allen will delight the
great mass of citizens, who have their city
at heart, and that he will be so convincing
in his argument that not one of them who
hears him will think of turning this city
over to the Populists and demagogues are
all forgone conclusions.
