:. Lord Byron's Descendants.

All the direct. descendants of the
poe. Byron are Catholics. Many Of
the descendants of Sir Walter Scott
through his daughter, who married ].
G. LQckhart, and was converted to the
faitli-are Catholics. The only surviv-
lug daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne
is q Catholic. Byron is truly the poet
laureate of st. Peters, Rome, no one
else having written line about that
cathedral of the world which is worthy
Of a thought beside his magnificent
poem, beginning:
But thou of temples old Or affairs
new
Stand.st alone with nothing like to
thee"
He died with crucifix under his
pillow. Scott, despite the evidence Of
bitter, inherited prejudices against the
church, both in his novels and poems,
yet testified so much to her benificent
influence, that the Waverleys novels
are justly regarded as having helpe'
to pave the way for the Oxford Movt-
ment. Hawthorne, in his "Marble
Faun," broke down many Of the preju-
dices Of Protestant Americans against
the Church; and his masterpiece, "The
Scarlet Letter." is, unconsciously, one
of the greatest pleas for the necessity
of Sacramento confession that ever
was penned. 1t is among the myster-
les of God that not to these men, but
to their children, came the gift of

Was Worsted By WI.

The Chinese minister Mt washing
ton, Mr.. Wu, Ia n man of more than
ordinary keenness, rs Senator Eugene
Hale Of Maine had occasion to learn
the other day. The treatment of the
missionaries in the far east was under
discussion and the senator had trOtted
out n number of Instances Of maltrcat-
ment. md even worse. that the mis-
sionaries had met with at the hands
of their eastern brethren. The senator
then pointed out to the minister that
this was hardly the way in which the
missionary should be received, and
that n liberty Of faith should be ac-
corded their subjects by eastern rulers.
All through this homlly the Chinese
minister had grinned sympnthetically
but n tri1e dcrIsively. Liberty Of re-
ligious thought, eh?" WI inquired ten
tativcly, when his chance came. "You
not always give liberty of religious
thought in this country; you some.
times persecute the missionary in these
great United States, think?" TO
this, needless to say, the Junior sen.
ator from the pine tree state inter-
posed n vigorous denial.
"No, you never do such things here,
never. You never pcrsecutc the poor
missionary! You are too high-mindet.
You have too much freedom of
thought for that!' And here Wu's
derlsivc smile grew diabolical. "How
about that Levantine affair?'
Levantine AFFAIR."" was the puzzled
inquiry.
"Yes, Levantinc affair; affair at LIE
want. What did you do thcre?"
And then the senator suddenly re.
membered the fate of q Mormon mis-
siOuary at Levant, Me. The keen ce.
lcstinl eye of the Chinese minister saw
the look Of understanding in Senator
Hale's eye, and he drove the nail
home
"What did you do with that Nor
mon missionary at Levant, eh? You
gave him what is called the tar and
feathers; is it not so?" But the sen.
ator had no response Mt hand.

Each valiant soldier Of the rank
and file seemed imbued with the
spirit Of war and marched boldly, in
solid phalanx in battle array. The
brave commanders waved high in
air imaginary swords with imaginary
right arms, and the fierce battle was
CIR from high noon to deWy eve. The
silent observer at times viewed with
alarm" the bloodless conflict, lest
these heroes of other fields, again
smelling the smoke of battle, should
engage each other in more sangu;n-
airy conflict. One proclaimed that he
would lose his other arm, if need be,
fighting for Frink and the public
veal, while the other, equally brave
but in milder tones and with more
modest mein averred that he stood
well in the council Of his city and
close to Humes; that he loved Guy
for his youth; that he would not al
low any member of the opposing clan
to Guy Humes unrebuked; that he
stood upon this field to do battle for
Guy alias Humes, Notwithstanding
the alleged devious and subterrane-
Gus methods Of the sappers and min
ers Of his clan.

''AlPS well that ends well" is an
ole but wise saw. The King county
Republican convention may have
started out very stormy, and wholly
Oh the wrong foot, but before it had
proceeded very far it fell into the
right groove and did a most charm
ing piece of work. Few persons III
King county would have thought
that L. B. Knickerbocker would have
ever permitted himself to become a
party to the slick piece Of political
sculddugery that was attempted 0y
the Humes men to capture the chair
manship Of the convention, and none
ever thought that Frank p. Lewis,
who has stood so fair in this city in
every particular, would have even
desired to have carried out a soul
dugery scheme so well planned, but
from the Pie-maker's way Of think
lIg each Of those men did so, and
did SO knowingly, and further dis
cussion oft but adds insult to IN
jury. 1t was a stormy convention,
and one that will be remembered for
many years to come. The Frink men
lead by such intrepid workers as w.
II. Morris, Ex-Governor John II.
McGraw, John p Hartman, j. d.
Jones and others, showed to the OPP
position that chicanery was no match
for ability and right. They lead
their men to victory without any VIC
lence, which, to say the least, was re-
markable, for the opposition expect
ed violence Of the worst kind, and, if
reports. be true, went there prepared
to meet violence. Thre is no doubt
but that the figures which Chairman
Knickerbocker declared elected
Frank 2. Lewis were agreed upon by
the men managing the Humes fight
the night before. 1t was an unfor-
tunate predicament in which to place
the Republican party, and the men
responsible for it should drop out Of
public sight for all time to come IN
stead Of hankering for more notori-
ETY..

The Democrats of this city held
their primaries last Wednesday even
ing and are holding their county
convention today. Unlike the Re
pubicans, the Democrats decided to
hold two county conventions. The
one in session today will simply elect
delegates to the state convention and
the one to nominate county officers
will be held in September. A fight
for supremacy in the county conven-
ton between the Goodwin forces and
the Hart followers will be the fea-
ture Of the convention. Ii Goodwin
is successful, it means j. L. Ronald
for congress, and if Hart wins it
means J. T. McElroy for congress.
If Goodwin wins it means the en-
dorsement Of John r. Rogers for the
nomination Of governor, and if Hart
wins it means that Rogers will not
get single vote from King county.
The fight for party supremacy prom
ises to be very hotly contested one
and may result in split in the con-
yention as it did some few months
ago

Victory, yictorius victory, has
finally crowned the three years eff
forts Of The Seattle Republican in
its endeavor to shatter the power Of
the Pipers in this city and county.
When it opened up the fight on the
Oregon tramps, the Turner hirelings
and the political boodlerS its friends
thought it was a great big mouthful
for it to try to swallow, and truly be-
ieved that the paper would be ruin
ed for so doing. In fact the Pipers
did declare that they would have the
business men withdraw every cent of
patronage from it. They made the
effort, and the editor Of this paper
has been practically ruined, fnan-
cially speaking, because he dared OPP
pose the Pipers and their great po-
litical machine. Nothing, however,
succeeds like success, and it CON
TUNED to hammer away at the Pip
ers, always telling such a straight
forward tale that it soon began to
convince others and then others, un-
til real storm had been kicked up
and resulted in their utter defeat.
Months ago the Pipers made hercu-
lean efforts to take The Republican
into the Ankeny fold, but at that
they had poor success. Knowing the
facts as this paper does, it is very
gratifying to it to now let loose a
few hurrahs over the defeat Of the
Oregon Tramps.

state stands higher than Prof. Lay
hue, and he will be an honor and a
credit to the ticket should he be
nominated. On a canvass Of the del
egation from King county it has
been found that an overwhelming
majority Of the delegates favor Prof,
Layhue's candidacy, providing it
does not interfere with that Of the
governorship fight, and it will not,
hence it looks now as though he will
be nominated on the first ballot.
Prof. Taylor, of King county, might
have stood a very good show for the

On test vote j. nj. Frink was en-
dorsed for the goyernorship and a
delegation selected to 60 to the state
convention that will leave no stone
untTned to accomplish that pun
pose. Since King county has held
It's convention many other counties
have held their conventions, and all
have endorsed Mr.. Frink. From the
Northwest comes the report that Jei-
ferson county is for Frink for gov
ernor. Next comes the report that
Skagit county is in the Frink line.
Then Whatcom county, not to be
outdone by her neighbors, has de-
clared for Frink. Snohomish is for
trink and Sam Nichols. Kitsap
county had a warm time, locally
speaking, but sent a delegation 20
the state convention to vote for
Frink for governor. Pierce county
is holding her convention today and
the probabilities are that Mr.. Frink
will get a solid delegation from that
county. Lewis county has also held
her convention, and it is for May
nard and Frink. Chehalis county is
not having much to say, but It looks
Frink-like. While the emissaries Of
the Walla Walla money barrel are
doing all in their power at present in
the southwestern counties to prevent
them from coming to Frink, yet it
looks as though their efforts will be
without success. Western Washing
ton will doubtless give Mr.. Frink at
least 80 per cent. Of her entire vote,
and with some aid from the eastern
side Of the state j. NJ. Frink will be
unanimously nominated. Tom
Humes' name will not be placed be
fore the convention. The Piper

lican faction to name ticket that
they need not be ashamed Of for a
single minute. | am glad to see
such rivalry, for when it is SO the
public's interest will always be most
carefully guarded"
The defeat of I. NJ. De Moss, from
a Frink combination standpoint, is
the lamentable thing Of the conven-
ton, 1t is true that Mr.. Frink's
friends could have nominated Mr..
De Moss if they had stuck together,
and that would have been good poll
ties, but Mr.. Frink had no cinch On
the delegates whereby he could force
them to vote throughout the entire
convention proceedings as he would
have them do, and to blame either
him or any one else for the defeat Of
Mr.. De Moss is puerile. George j.
Lamping is young soldier fresh
from the backgrounds Of the Phil
lppines, and it was utterly impossible
for either Mr.. Frink or any one else
to stem the tide that at once broke
loose for Mr.. Lamping as soon as his
name was mentioned. Even at this
late date it is almost impossible to
keep convention Of Republicans
from nominating an old veteran of
the civil war, though such parsonage
be totally unfit to hold the office to
which he aspires. The man who
stands before an enemy's bullets in
defense Of his country somehow or
another gets good deal more coil
sideration than the fellow who stays
at home. The Pie-maker has been
informed that Lamping is not only a
soldier, but is also a Well-educated
gentleman and has all the qualifca-
tons necessary to conduct the office
for which he has been successfully
and fairly nominated with credit to
himself, to his country and to his
party That being true, he is justly
entitled to the full support Of the
Republicans of this county, inelud-
hiding Mr.. De Moss and his entire
Ballard constituency.

And thus the war was waged by
the clans until the recall was sound
ed. When the sun went down the
field was strewn with the Wreckage of
war, advisory tickets, snipes and
shells Of peanuts; the atmosphere
was charged with the odor Of stale
smoke commingled with that pecu-

Not one word Of complaint has

nosed about ever since the conven-
ton adjourned and has failed to
catch one unfavorable comment on
the ticket named. On the other
hand, all Republicans speak in the
highest terms Of it, and the Demo
Gratis openly declare that it is a very
hard ticket for the opposition to
beat. The Pie-maker accosted
