1t is very apparent, even at this
early date, that j. T. Ronald will be
defeated by much larger vote than
was either Jones Wheat Chart) or
Lewis two years ago. And why not?
Would it not be a burning shame for
the Republicans to elect a man like
Ronald to congress? It will be re
membered that the Republicans did
elect Ronald to office once on a time,
and the Pie-maker seems to remem-
Der hat he did not make a very bril-
liant record while he was in office
unless it was a record Of borrowing
the public funds and chase about the
country on that borrowed money,
which same money caused one Of his
fellow officeholders to serve a term
in the state penitentiary. The con-
census Of opinion concerning the
loans made by that official is to the
effect that there were others beside
Krug that should have done terms
in the state prison.

Among other things found in the
last issue of that paper we see that it
accuses Boyd J. Tallman, candidate
for judge of the superior court, with
repudiating promise he is said to
have made in reference to the ap-
pointment of colored man for bail
if. The Bee states that Mr.. Tall
man promised ''that he would do
anything any other candidate would
do" as to the appointment Of a col
ored man for bailiff, and that he now
says he never made such a promise
The Bee does not, however, state
that he has refused to appoint a
Negro as bailiff in his court.

I That's not all that Prof. Meredith
has done which is detrimental to the
public school system of. this county
Don't lose sight of the fact that the
election of M. M. Moss, who has nc
qualifications whatever for holding
such a position, is but re-electing
Meredith to the superintendency of
the public schOols), because Seattle
would not use a lot Of text books as
rotten and as vile as anything could
be, and yet be called school books, all
Of which are chock full of errors and
blunders Of the worst kind; in short,
complete murder Of Mother Eng
fish, this man Meredith, who is
now endeavoring to have his man
Friday elected superintendent Of the
public schools, has knocked the city
OF Seattle out Of nearly $4,000 from
the state school appropriation. Prof.
Meredith is aware Of the fact that
those text books are rotten, why then
IS he so anxious that the children Of
Seattle use them in spite of their in
correctness? Simply because it
means something for him; it means
something for Moss, and the two are
inseparable. Again, why is Prof.
Meredith so solicitous about Moss
being elected? Is it because that
Moss has had so much experience as
a school teacher and that he would
make an excellent school superin-
tendent? Not much, for Mr.. Moss
has never been princi pal of even
country school. Mr.. Moss has never
had any experience at school teach
ing at all except three years as a
subordinate teacher, and very subor-
dinate at that, in the High School of
this city. Yes, there is a reason for
all this, in the opinion of the Pie
maker, and it lies in the fact that
Meredith has tickled Moss back and
now Moss is to tickle Meredith's
back, and the combine to push the
text book steal Of this state to COM
plete success by driving Seattle into
using the nefariOus books or deprive
her Of some 100000 appropriations
of the state funds Perhaps the vot-
ers of King county will support a
man of the above ipe for superin-
tendent of public schools, but the
Pie-maker very seriously doubts it.

From knowledge gained by an
acquaintance with Boyd J. Tallman
covering nine years we know the
Negro has no better or truer friend
in King county than he.
Superintendent Meredith, who is
closely identified with the present
school text book outrage in this state,
has been for the past four years su-
perintendent Of the public schools
OF King county, drawing a salary Of
about 5000 per month. Now, let's
see if Prof. Meredith has earned his
salary from King county by giving
value received in the way of time
and labor for the salary he and his
assistant have drawn down from the
county. Since he has been school
superintendent he has completed a
full college course at the state uni
versity, and graduated therefrom last
year. Instead Of visiting the county
schools during the week he has spent
the days Of each week himself going
to school. Instead Of being in his
office, as the law requires, when he
was not visiting the schools in the
county, he was attending the state
university as a student, and during
each day Of the week the office was
locked up, and persons journeying
from distant parts of the county to
see either the superintendent or his
deputy on school matters would have
to journey back home without see
ing either, as Meredith was going to
school and his assistant teaching
school. Now, in all seriousness, do
you think Prof. Meredith earned the
money that has been paid him by the
county? Now, Mr.. Meredith had an
assistant superintendent and it was
his duty to be in the office in the alb
sence Of his superior, but he was not,
and instead Of being in the office, as
the law requires him to be, he was
holding a position as teacher in the
High School of this city. Now, did
this assistant refuse to draw his
salary for not being in the office over
a few hours each week? Oh, no; not
much! He not only drew his $75
per month for that little work, but
he likewise drew a big salary as
teacher in the High School. That
assistant was none other than NJ. M.
Moss, the Democratic candidate for
superintendent of schools in this
county at the present time. Now,
to your mind, dear readers, what
does this all mean? 1t simply means
that Moss is to be elected and will
appoint Meredith his assistant, and
in case Browne is reelected state su-
perintendent, Meredith is to remain
on the state board Of education and
the two are to flourish with the
West-Land Publishing Co. and he
and Moss to divide the emoluments
Of office between them.
Get the vote on the adoption Of
the text books Of this state and see
if Prof. Meredith did not do some of
the most peculiar voting that you
ever saw a man do who did not have
a financial reason for voting as he
did. He has locked up his office
since he has been school superin-
tendent and has been Saving wood
in his own private interest ever since,
but has never failed to draw his sal
airy at the proper time.

eff [ am ever elected governor of
this state | do not intend to use the
veto power, but allow the odium en-
mating from the acts Of any legisla-
ture to rest upon them and the party
they represent" so said Mr.. John
R. Rogers at Ellensburg, when he
was a candidate for the nomination
Of governor. In spite Of that asser-
ton, which Mr.. Rogers cannot deny
that he said in addressing the Free
Silver Republican convention, he
has used the veto power more than
any other man that was ever COVER
nor Of the territory or state of Wash
ington. He has vetoed right and
left and has allowed no legislation to
remain on the statute. books of this
state put there by a two-third major
ity Of the legislature unless such leg
islation met his personal approval
No man either in this or any other
state Of this Union ever betrayed
every promise and pledge he made
when a candidate SO fully and com
pletely as has John R. Rogers, and
yet in the face of all that George
Turner managed, with the powerful
influence of filthy lucre used on the
convention floor, so charged by
members of the convention, of cor
rupting a sufficient number Of dele
gates to renominate the man. Wa
there ever more burning shame
perpetrated on an intelligent people
than the denomination of John R
Rogers and School Superintendent
Browne?

Perhaps no administration in the
history of Washington, either as a
territory or a state, is guilty Of as
many little public steals as the John
R. Rogers administration. Every
petty little bill that the governor
and his especial henchmen have
made for their own private benefit
has been tried to be saddled on to the
state treasurer for payment and re-
endorsement. Talk about your re-
form, but this is reform with a ven
geance, and Gov. Rogers will find
that out before he has finished ex-
planning his peculiar reforms in the
present campaign.

Andrew F. Burleigh, one of Seat
ties erstwhile Republican leaders.
opened the Republican campaign al
Spokane recently, and it is reported
that the smooth oratorical tongue OF
Andrew had not forgotten its cum
ming, regardless Of the fact that it
has not been heard on the rostrum
for some four years. No man in the
Northwest can make a more elo-
quent as well as logical speech than
Mr.. Burleigh, and the state central
committee would do well to get Mr..
Burleigh to come this way once more
for a season. Seattle is always ready
to listen with open mouth to Andrew
F. Burleigh's political talks and he
should not be overlooked.

such a condition mean to the man
who had wife and little children

makes precious little difference to
the laboring man who is president, if
that president is with The party that

We do not know what promises, if
any, Mr. Tallman has made in refer
ence to the appointment of bailiffs,
but we do know that he will fulfil
any and all promises that he has
made, as he is an honorable and up
right man. But what do our people
expect from the Democrats should
they be elected? VIII either Judge
Jacobs, Judge Benson or Judge
Strudwick, if elected, appoint Ne
gro as bailiff? Judge Strudwick is
a Southerner, having lived in North
Carolina all his life before coming to
Seattle. That state is the last one OF
Southern states to disfranchise the
Negro by constitutional amendment
Can the colored people expect any
thing from him? Not one of the
present judges, who are all fusionists
ever appointed a Negro to any office
Neither will they in the future.

1t has been learned that quite a
few Officeseekers were at Enumclaw
last Saturday to take in the local
Harvest Home fair that was being
held in that city, at which many Of
the farmers were present. The can
didates took advantage of the large
gathering and showed up there, hop
ing to make votes for themselves.
The old grangers had, however, met
for good time, and did not want to
hear any partisan politics, and so
they decided to let each of the can
didates speak five minutes on any
subject they liked, just so it was not
on politics. In other words, if you
want to show yourself and try your
hand at making votes on your shape,

Taking their cue from the Liar
(Times) of this city, a great many of
the opposition papers of this state
are bowling Wilson-McGraw at the
Republican ticket in answer to cold,
hard facts shot at them by the Re-
publican campaign orators. 1t is
said that an American citizen never
learns Of the fact that either he OF
his great grandfather or some other
member of his family was guilty of
the most heinous crimes until he is
nominated for office. It's a sad com
mentary on the superior race" if ii
be true, that those selected as it,
standard-bearerS on opposition
tickets are always men OF
the most questionable charac-
ter. Without an excuse, save
cussedness, pure and simple, The
Times has most shamefully
abused Senator Frink since he has
been nominated for office, and this
has been taken up by the country
weeklies without knowing one thing
as to the truthfulness Of what they
are talking about, but they think il
proper to print infamous lies for pc
litical effect.

F. G. Robertson's brother, Of Lou
isiana, has spent his life defending
the criminal element of Louisiana
for killing innocent Negroes because
those Negroes made an effort to use
the elective franchise For that his
fellow criminals elected him to a seat
n congress. His brother F. G.. de-
termined to cast his lot in the far
West, so he came to Washington, and
has spent the last eighteen months
IF his time defending criminals of
the worst type, the dynamiters of the
Occur d'Alenes, and for that his
Democratic associates have honored
him with a nomination for congress.
1t would thus seem that the more
perniciOus a Southern mans assooi-
ates are the more he is honored by
his fellow partisans. 1t should not
be forgotten what a desperate race a
certain Democrat made in this city
for the congressional nomination,
the one that Ronald got, simply be-
cause he had won hundreds and
thousands of dollars at the poker
table and was able to pay big money
to the Democratic central committee
# he were nominated.

It's fatal mistake for the Expo
nent, a spasmodic little weekly now
being published in Tacoma, having
failed to make it go in Seattle, to
try to induce the colored folk Of this
state to vote the Democratic ticket,
their most damnable as well as dead
ly enemy Personally speaking,
the gentleman editing that spasmod-
ic sheet is a most excellent man, but
his political teachings are very very
bad. Every colored voter in the
South who has not been actually
killed for trying to vote has been dis
franchised, so that he cannot vote,
and this has been done by the Demo
cratic party. The only reason the
same is not done in the North is be-
cause the Democrats are too few in
numbers. Wherever Democracy
prevails, then you can rest assured
that it is death for the black man to
make any pretense Of being other
than a slave or a mental. Whenever
You see a colord man that will shut
his eyes and close his ears to all those
facts and advocate NegFaes support
ing Democratic nominees, he is do
ing so for the sake of money at the
expense Of his race. 'Life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness" is the
cardinal princip pie Of American civil
ization, and yet the black men Of
this country are denied that very
thing in every state south Of Mason
and Dixon's line. Are you going to
vote for your deadly enemies?

It is reported that owing to the
exceeding friendliness that the Re
publican party Of this county has
shown to certain Smiths" that they
intend to go to work to get the en-
tire "Smith family to vote the Re
publican ticket, and thereby give it
the largest majority that any ticket
in this county ever before received.
There is no doubt but that the
"Smith family can do that very
thing if it will, and it seems that it
has made up its mind to will it. So
far as the Pie-maker is aware there
will not be many Of the Smiths in
King county that will vote against
the Republican nominees. The King
county ticket has three Smiths
as nominees on it for one thing or
the other, and the Smiths highly ap-
preciate that very fact.

you can do so. Fortunately for the
Republican county ticket, their best
looking candidates were in attend
ance and unfortunately for the
Democrats, their worst-looking can
didates were on hand, so it is cur
rently reported that the Republicans
captiVated the grangers and their
fairer sex and that Enumclaw will
not give a single Democratic candi-
date a majority Of votes at the next
election.

Gov. Rogers wanted the state to
pay the expenses of his wife and
daughter to visit about over the
state, and that, too, despite the fact
that he was elected on an economic
platform. He and his friends are
boasting of the fact that the Rogers
administration saved the state many
thousands of dollars. For the sake
Of argument, and for the sake Of ar
gument alone, grant that it has.
Now, the question is, did Gov. Rog-
ers do that saving, or did Neal
Cheetham do it? From the CORE
spondence that has passed between
the governor and the state treasurer,
it would appear that Mr.. Cheetham
s the man. If Gov Rogers ever
saved the state single cent Of
money, he reclaimed it all for Pull
man car service for himself and fam
lily to travel from one part Of the
state to the other or to pay for his
private kilograms to his henchmen
concerning his own nomination.

POLITICAL POT=PIE

To September 22d not single
political speech, according to the
Elma Chronicle, had been made in
Chehalis county, and not single
heated political discussion between
individuals had been heard on the
streets Of Elma, which the Chroni-
Gle declares 'to be a funny cam
paign." Oh, that can all be fully
accounted for. 1t lies in the fact
that the men who were arguing poll
tics from a Bryan standpoint four
years ago have on an average Of Is
to 1 found good jobs at paying
salaries under the Mckinley admin
istration, and they do not have time
to discuss politics; and even if they
should take time, they are perfectly
willing to let well enough alone.
That spirit of contentment is to be
found not only in Chehalis county,
but in every other county in this
state, yea, every other county in the
United States, not even excepting
the South.
