Lining up for the coming cam
paign," is not confined solely to the
man who has an itching palm for an
Office, but it is likewise true Of the
Seattle newspapers and newspaper
men. Within the past week some
notable changes in the editorial
rooms of the Times have transpired.
Tom McGill, who has been city edi-
tor since the retiring Of 0. NJ. Moore
from that position, has been fired
and he is now in Tacoma on one of
the papers in the capacity of re
porter. j. A. Costello, who is said
to be one Of the best reporters in the
city, is now city editor Of the Times
instead of McGill.

One Of the most handsome books
ever issued by the Northern Pacific
company has just been sent out. It
is certainly the most splendid review
of the Northwest that has been issued
by any one for years. It is not only
replete with Northwest information,
but it is likewise pleasingly diversi-
fed with historical "reminiscences.
Wonderland" the title Of the neat
new book, is certainly wonder in
its get up and is deserving Of the
very highest praise No book Of its
kind has ever been issued by any
other railroad company in the North

What can be the matter with the
editor Of the Vineland Journal?

for its TRADE of billingsgate against
Mr.. Wilson unless he happens to be
in one or the other aforesaid politi-
cal conditions.

A Negro during a recent fire at a
fiat house in New York distinguished
himself and proved that the Negroes
bravery is not "born of desperation
only He was on his way to work
and detected the fire, which soon
gained much headway. On the sec
ond floor man with his six little
children stood completely cut off
from all escape by the flames. This
Negro, M. S. Anderson by name
with two passersby ran into the
building next door and on up to the
third floor With his two companions
holding his legs, Anderson swung
head downward, and swaying his
body backward and forward managed
to reach the children as the father
held them up to him. And all were
rescued from a horrible and speedy
death.

The entertainment given to raise
the travelling expenses of the pastor
of the A. M. E. Church as a dele
gate to the General Conference to
be held in Columbus, Ohio, MAY Z,
1900, was a grand success both finanz
clally and as literary effort. The
Silver Leaf Club, an auxiliary of the
church, furnished the refreshments
and the Literary and Musical Club
furnished the literary and musical
treat. Both were perfect. The net
proceeds amounted to more than $780,
The thanks of the pastor and church
is gratefully returned to all who con-
trlbuted to the grand success.
GEO. A. BAILEY, Pastor.
The Seattle friends of Rev. Bailey
are quite pleased to learn that he will
soon leave for the General Confer
ence Of his church at Columbus. and
that the good folk Of Roslyn sent
him there in proper shape, financially
and otherwise. Rev. s. J. Collins
will also be delegate to the General
Conference, and he and Rev. Bailey
will leave together.

The recent influx Of japanese, in

The consolidation Of the Saturday
Mail and Herald was the desideratum
for the two papers. Practically
speaking, they were Of one opinion
before they consolidated, and there
was nothing else for them to do but
consolidate, that is, if they proposed
to do business instead of cut each
others throats. Messrs. Way and
Hampton are rustlers from the word
go, and there is no doubt but that
the new concern will put out one Of
the most readable papers in the city,
and likewise one Of the best paying
ones.

1t may be that the reason Senator
Turner has always been safe on the
woman suffrage" question in this
state, was because he felt absolutely
certain it would never be a reality.
If the women of this state had the
right of suffrage they would certain
ly vote against Senator Turner to a
woman, simply because he resorts to
means Of carrying elections that wo-
men do not stand for a single

The Dramatic Club of the Uni
versity of Washington gave their
second annual play last Friday even
ing. The play is entitled every
body's Friend" and to say that the
Dramatic Club interpreted it well
would hardly be doing justice to the
leading amateur artists who took
part. 1t was simply magnificent
from beginning to end, and the audi
ence showed its hearty appreciation
Of their efforts. 'Everybody's
Friend" is three-act comedy and
has had great success in many of the
leading Eastern cities. The cast of
characters was as follows: Felix
Featherly, Clarence M. Larson;
Frank Icebrook, Worth Densmore;
Major Wellington De Boots, Alfred
Giles; Trap, Ed McCammon; Eu-
genia Featherly, Elizabeth B. Han
cock; Julia SwandoWn, Edna Rob

sion was furnished by the university
orchestra. About all the students
and their friends attended the per-
formance. Then, there were large
number from town also present, so
that the club scored fnancil sue
