SOUTH ADMIREs M'KIxLEY.
Though still solidly Democratic, II
Has Faith I'm the President.

sseeeessseeeesessssssssss


w. f. Paschall. a prominent business
man from Atlanta, Ga, Is a guest at
the Hotel Seattle, He came north as
far as San Francisco on business, and
having a few days extra time came on
to Seattle.
II think this is very prosperous look
ing city," he said yesterday. I'm fact.
1t has better business appearance than
any city of Its size have ever seen.
We hear a great deal about Seattle In
the South, and within the past year have
done some business with you.
while we are enjoying period OF
prosperity in the South. It Is not SO
great as you are having here. This
year we are getting a good price for our
cotton, whereas year ago we did not
pick 1t all. We look forward to great
er prosperity next year.
THE South Is always Democratic, you
know. We think more of President Nc
Kinley than any other Republican presi-
dent ever in the White House. His re-
cent trip through the South could not
have received a greater ovation. His adj
ministration has been a good and pros
porous one, and as Democrats. we can
hardly point out an error. Yet the South
is Democratic. and probably will be for
years to come.
I'VE hardly know where we stand on
expansion. This one question may cut
some figure next year, for, as rule.
I believe the South leans toward the war
policy Of the administration"

An effort Is being made to organize q

mining men are at the back OF the
scheme, which was at one time seriously

Over the route proposed II Is said grad
Ing would be very light and the cost OF
construction would be comparatively
small.
Heavy cost in transporting ore to either
the British Columbia or Spokane shelters
gives some indication Of meeting with
success.

President McKinley's appointee. Dur
ing his residence In Port Townsend
Mr.. Saunders was one Of the leading
men of the city, was the president OF
a bank and engaged in numerous i'm
portant business enterprises in addi-
ton to attending to the duties of his
office.
During his entire term Of once Col
lector Saunders was constantly under
FIRE by his many enemies. and hardly
a month passed without some charge
involving his professional life being
made. About the time Of his retire.
ment It was charged that a Chinaman
had secured entrance into the United
States by Illegal means, and that C0l-
lector Saunders was not only ccgni-
xant Of the fact, but had used his
of1cial position in the interests Of the
Chinaman. Nothing came of the
case against Collector Saunders, and
his friends have always insisted that
IT was trumped up charge made by
his enemies in the hope Of inJuring
him professionally and privately.
After turning over the Office of coll
lector he went East, and simultan-
eousiy with his departure came sto-
ry involving alleged forged stock cer-
tificates In which the ex-collector's
name was unpleasantly connected. A
week or two later came a story from
the East that Mr.. Saunders child had
died as a result of improper medical
treatment and that he and others had
been arrested for indulging In the
practice of Christian science In an
fps That charge against the ex-collect
the Federal court held that certain
ders claimed were part OF his salary
him.
To cap the climax the present g
claimed to be the forgery Of the s
Collector Saunders Official bond.

Here we have a proud, imperial city, rather disdainful of trade, aristocratis and easy gUing. conscious of . long past, its rulers still animated with the conviction that they are the Euocessors of Charlemagne and Otto, looking on Berlin as parveDu. on London as merely commercial, on Paris as half crazy.
