Robertson Lecture.

The lecture delivered by Mr.. Rober-
son of New York before the Central
Kansas Teachers Association In this
city last Friday night taken in all its
parts WAS something valuable. More
than 800 stereoptican views were shown
and nearly all of them represented
scenes in the Philippines. There we're
the jungles, the old Spanish fortiica-
tiOns, Anticipated canons, prisons, city
walls, cathedrals, palaces public build
ings, pl9zas, boulevards and streets Of
Manila, shipping, wrecks Of the Span
ish war vessels, interior of Filipino
houses, offices and Office furnishings,
matched houses of the natives, types
of Filipino faces of high and low
grades, also mestl2os or half-breed
Chinese, and portraits Of prominent
personages In the recent history of the
islands, and in fact everything Of in
terest one can think Of. Taken all
together 1t gave probably the best in

Seasr,e's health statistics for the year
which recently closed are satisfactory,
not so much for what they reveal upon
their surface as for the facts which the
board makes known In connection witn
them. The death rate advanced some
what over that OF 1897, owing In very
large measure 10 the floating popnla-
ton created by the Klondike activities,
but vigorous and successful opposi-
ton to the spread Of all contagious and
seasonal diseases has been maintained
by the health officers. and the net re-
suit In contrast with the difficulties en-
countered. has been good.
Every progressive city keeps In touch
with the advancement OF medical sci
ence and thereby secures health
status such as would have been increGi-
bic few years ago. Natural conditions
reduce Seattie's sanitary problems ma
terially. but there are local situations
which require skiliful and strictly mod
ern handling. and the necessity for be-
ing alert and active 10 all modern meth
DDS Is as incumbent upon this city as
1t is upon others. During the year Just
passed the marked success with which
the health officers. by their laboratory
and quarantine facilities. have been
able Ia stay the course OF diphtheria.
soaria;Ina and typhoid fever. is album
dant illustration OF the wisdom of the
local application OF the modern methods.
Slight demand appears to be made by
the board Of health for this years ex-
penditures. but there can be little doub.
that the city authorities win fully ap-
preciate the necessities Of the depart
ment and even stretch points In order 10
allow an adequate appropriation. Pro-
visions for maintaining a city's good
health should increase more rapidly
than a city's population.
Health Officer MoKechnie's recon-
mendations for an immediate establish
ment OF receiving hospital and the
providing Of an ambulance are timely
and appropriate and should be needed.
A city of the size OF Seattle, with its
large floating population. It's extensive

means for dealing with emergency cases
and for caring for the poor. The need
In this line has been of long standing
and grows more urgent with each sue

THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.

The reports from Olympia indicate
that the contest for the senatorship is
rapidly narrowing down to the point
where forecast OF the result may be
made with reasonable accuracy. The
rapid disintagration of the Wilson
forces is no more than was expected by
those who have kept closely In touch
with the feeling throughout the state.
Judge Humes' position has been ma
teriaily strengthened. and those who
have been led by constant iteration to
believe the reports circulated by the
friends of Senator Wilson that his can
didacy Is but blind behind which other
aspirants are making their fight, now
realize that they have been misled.

impression that there are other possible
asprants from King county who can
control its vote is equally misleading.
