The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1901-11-22

The United Investment Company,
a commercial enterprise Of Chicago,
owned and operated solely by col
ored men, and Pullman car porters
at that, have decided to open bank
in connection with the big stores
that they are already successfully
operating in that city. Some years
ago these porters put their moneys
together and started a small grocery
store, and their efforts were so sue
cessful that they branched out and
opened up dry goods store in con
nection, and the two have proved
such a financial success that they
now contemplate opening bank as
well, the real object and intentions
of which can be learned from the
president Of the association, Mr.. A.
H. Edmunds, from the following in
terview in the Inter-Ocean:
I'VE have formed this bank Tor the sole
purpose of widening our business horizon.
! In the employ of the Pullman company
are hundreds of young colored men who
by reason of natural ability and educa-
ton should have opportunities open TO
them in other walks of life. 1t is my
firm belief that the colOred man must

glish, 184 times in French, 145
times in Spanish and 17S times in
German.
Jane TOppan is the name of a
professional nurse who is now being
tried at Barnstable, Mass, for the
murder of one woman and Indirectly
with the murder Of six other per
sons. The greed for money seems
to have been the motive that
prompted Miss Toppan to commit
her numerous crimes.
The tip nuisance is said to be even
worse in Germany than it is either in
England or the United States. The
servants in Germany expect tips
from not only the household, but
even from the guests who visit the
house. If one accepts an invitation
to visit at another's home, he is ex-
pected to tip the servants.
The proposition from Australia to
make uniform postage rate of two
cents for letters to all parts Of the
world has met the approval of Italy,
Switzerland and Egypt and some
South American republics. Ger
many hatfootedly opposes the prop
osition, while England, France, Rus
sia and Australia want it referred
to the next postal worlds congress
to be held in Rome in 1902.
Geronimo, the famous Apache
Indian, is now leading a quiet life
at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and is said
to be a very decent as well as good
behaved Indian. He is treated kind
ly by the officers at the fort and
given all the privileges that are pos
sible under the regulations. Geron-
imo draws $35 per month as gov
ernment scout. By selling fancy
articles he earns about $4,000 per
year trading with visitors at the fort.

The automobile, like the bicycle.
is rapidly developing into an every
day utility convenience for locomo-
tion. Like the bicycle, it first be-
came a fad, but the fad was soon
supplanted by the facts and the
automobile has been reduced to a
practical science, and when it will
have been reduced so as to be sold
even more reasonable than it now is
it will become as common as the
two-hOrse wagon and team to be
found on the streets every day.
From $4,000 the automobile has
been gradually reduced until now a
very serviceable machine can be had
for $500. 1t has reached a marvel
Gus speed, as it has covered as high
as eighty miles per hour, and that,
too, on long runs Should the auto
mobile be so constructed as to be
able to hold up a speed Of eighty
miles per hour for light purposes it
will become even more useful than
the express train. AS the years have
gone by these machines have be-
come more valuable and more serv-
iceable each year. The following
figures taken from the automobile
record as to the speed rate it has
made since 1895 will be Of interest
to the admirers Of the silent steed:
In 1895, us miles were covered in
1913 hours, making an average Of
1867 miles per hour; in 1896, 1868
miles in 64.42 hours, making an
average Of 1862 miles per hour; in
1898, 933 miles were covered in
30.041, or 1921 miller per hour; in
1899, 1929 miles were covered in
1888 hours, or 1888 miles per
hour; in 1900, 837 miles were COW
cred in 20.50 hours, or 1921 miles
per hour; in 1901, 346 miles were
covered in 6.078 hours, or 564e
miles per hour. Faster time has
been made by the automobile than
this record, but it can be seen from
this that the automobile has come
to stay.
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1901-11-22

In carrying out the policy mapped
out by Henry c. Payne, member
Of the national Republican commit
tee, which policy was begun by the
late lamented Mckinley, one George
r. Rooster, a blatant-mouth moss
back Democrat, has been appointed
internal revenue collector for South
Carolina. KOester was recommended
by Senator McLaurin, who is under
taking to build up a white mans
Republican party in the South. Ii
the New York Age can be believed
on this matter, this man Rooster has
participated in more than one lynch
ing party in that section, in fact it
is conceded that he was among the
leaders that instituted the mobo-
cratic spirit that is so common to the
South, which succeeded in making
Ben Tillman governor and subse-
quently United States senator. He
did not agree with Bryan, and later
he sided in the McLaurin-Tillman
controversy with the former, and
now he is to be rewarded for his
h1gh-handed reasonable acts by be-
ing appointed to the best federal
position in the state. Although
President Roosevelt has satisfied
himself with Mr.. Koester's lynching
record and announces that the ap-
pointment will stand, nevertheless
bitter fight will be made on his con-
firmation in the United States SEN
ate with the view of knocking out
the appointment.
Prof. W. III. Council, it appears
to the average newspaper man, is
giving too much free advice as to the
only way Of making good citizens
out of the Negroes of this country"
Prof. Council is an able educator, it
must be admitted, and he is doing a
good work in his own peculiar way,
but he should let well enough alone
Ii he continues to dabble into things

Gently done in discussing the Roose-
velt-Washington dinner party, The
Republican is of the opinion that he
will injure the cause in which he
himself is most vitality interested.
The public is well aware Of the fact
that Southern colored educators and
bushes men in general are COM
PEELED to a certain extent to cater to
Southern sentiments and ideas, but
there is no need of trying to force
such sentiments on persons in the
North, and for Prof. Council OF
Prof. Anyone to brand the acts of
Northern white persons, who are en-
deavoring in their own peculiar way
to help the black man Of this cOun-
try, as meddlesome Matties, shows
that they do not use the proper dis
cretion in their criticism.

PASSING
EVENTS
Of Men and Things in the
Public Mind

Theodore Roosevelt is a subject
that is receiving a vast amount Of
consideration by the commentaries
of this country in the press, in the
pul pit and public lecture halls The
man who bears this name is a most
remarkable man. Before he was 43
he was president Of the United
States, a feat never before accom-
plished by a citizen of the United
States. The man from a public
stand point is not only an enigma,
but he is liksewise a curio. Instead
of catering to the public's wishes he
forces the public to cater to his, and
commands the public to follow him.
When he became president he had
not yet dropped his youthful follies,
yea, he seemed to have been moth
ing more than an overgrown boy,
and he seemed to have never realized
that mature manhood, with all
of its attending responsible
ties, was on him until he
had been pronounced president Of
theUnited States a few hours after
the lamented Mckinley had passed
away. Stepping as he did in one
brief moment from the attire Of a
frolicsome youth into the garb of
maturity, and that, too, with the
grave duties of state attached, he
was more to be pitied than praised,
and though he has a will Of his own,
it required the prayerful support Of
every good citizen Of the United
States to give him sufficient courage
to bear up under the severe ordeal.
He has now been president for
nearly two months, and he seems to
be equal to the emergency and
handles the affairs Of state with the
ease Of the most expert politician.
Truly is he the public wonder Of
the age.
