For some reason unknown to the
editor hereof a great many colored
voters speak as if they intend to vote
for Ed Cudihee. Many Of them voted
for him two years ago and they say
they have no reasons for changing
their vote. One voter said: Il am for
the Office-seeker that does not forget
me as soon as | have voted for him
until he wants another Office. The Re-
publican nominee for sheriff may not
be that kind of man, but he is I'M
tried, so far as the black man is con-
cerned, and l feel like letting well
enough alone by voting for Ed Cudi-
hee. | do not know who else is going
to vote for him, but Cudihee has my
vote The Seattle Republican knows
not as to what Cudihee has done, but
the only colOred deputy sheriff ever
in King county was appointed by a
Democrat sheriff. The colored Repub-
licans have received less recognition
in King county than in any other coun-
ty in the state, where they have half
as many votes as there are in King
county.

We are sending instruments in every direc-
ton. Come i'll and see what is going on
There are times when it is necessary, as
every merchant viii ltell you, to sell goods
practically at cost and sometimes less than
cost, as we are now doing, on certain lines
for reasons frequently announced.
We are obliged to not only clear out
large number of new instruments this week,
but in addition we have a number of old
styles, dropped from the catalogues and
slightly used pianos, some of which have
been on rental a few months and are Writ
ually the same as new. The list of bargains
is too long to enumerate here, but will quote
few samples, as follows; New standard
upright pianos in various fancy woods,
former prices S265, 1925, 1915 to $475, now
S131, $195, 5000, 1920 to $342.
We have a number of new organs that
will be closed out at little more than half
regular price, from AZ for the $S5 styles to
SOS for the $11O instruments. We sell in
struments on easy payments when desired.
One price to everybody. The great bargains
we are offering must be seen to be appre
dated 1t is a pleasure to show and tell
YOU all about them, whether you buy or not.
Step in. In fact it will pay you to put
yourself out little to do so.

have seen, 1t cannot be beat anywhere.
We had as good crops here last fall as
I ever saw, and everything gets ripe
in good shape. We had as good ripe
potatoes as l yer ate in my life. There
is no better place for stock on the con-
tinent than here. Horses and cattle
will do as good running out all winter
here as they do where they are fed all
winter there. Have built me a resi-
dence and now all l want is a wife to
keep house for me. have some break

summer l intend to have more done.
and then l will be ready for business.

"DRY SMokERS"
Men Who Smoke UnIighte6 Cigars
Betray Their Mental Unsoundness.


Philadelphia Record: A physician had
to wait the other day for two hours In an
office building. AS he sat in idleness a
man with a fresh but unlighted cigar in
his mouth came into the room and began
to talk. He talked a long while and then
he went out again. He returned at the
end of an hour and the cigar, still I'M
lighted, was still in his mouth. The ply
sician said afterward to the man in
whose office he was waiting: Does your
friend often go about with an unlighted
cigar in his mouth as he has been doing
this afternoon" The other answered.:
"Often? Oh, always. He is never with
out that ornament"
We'll" said the physician, thoughtful
ly, its a strange thing to say, but 1
wouldn't bet on your friends sanity a
year hence"
why not?" asked the other.
Because I have seen so many paretics
who had this habit OF dry smoking, as
the thing is called, that I have come to
regard the habit almost as a sign of in
|cipient paresis. Lombroso regards 1t as
such a sign, and SO does the English:
alienist Maudsley. Look out for your
friend. Watch him very closely"
