Negro and Catholic Church.

The reader of The Seattle Repubn-
can who sends us the following clip
ping on the grounds that the editor
hereof is hostile to the Catholic church
is sadly mistaken in his assumption.
If we were as hostile to the church
as he intimated in his note we GER
tainly would not now have our 14-year-
old daughter attending a Catholic
school. The article, however, is
worthy of space and the same is will
ingly given:
Your correspondent was a much
edited attendant at a high mass of
requiem in st. Patrick's church here
on the 18th over the remains of an
old cOlOred woman, a member of the
parish, Aunt" Julia Hanson, who
lacked only two years of being 100
years old. She was a notable figure
IN Washington, and all the papers here
gave extended notices of her lifeI
death and burial. Aunt" Julia was
born in Maryland in 1904, of a slave
mother. At her mothers death, eigh-
teen years later, her master freed her
and willed her a few thousand dol
lars. She came to Washington, in
vested her money in real estate and
went to work, and for eighty years
thenceforWard was noted for her in
dustry, economy, piety and charity.
Everyone knew her and no one failed
to praise her. Up to the day of her
death at SO she was active and clear
headed. The care of an invalid hus-
band and unfortunate brother for over
fifty years was borne faithfully and
cheerfully. Her investments proved
fortunate, and, Notwithstanding her
generosity to the church always, and
her charity to the poor and helpless,
black and white, she died wealthy.
Shortly before her death she gave $10,-
900 to Father McGee to help his new
church of the Sacred Heart Mrs. Han
sons remains were attended by hun
dreds of her own race and almost as
many white people. 1t was rather q
novel sight to see the center front Of
St. Patrick's church filled with colored
people-her relatives and friends.
Father McGee preached a beautiful
: sermon. He likened Aunt" Julia to
D the perfect woman who is described in
y the thirty-fifth chapter of Proverbs
y The woman who goes not about CAD
O ding, but who wisely attends to hel
: eternal interests, who keeps her house
O and makes it paradise for her family
= who works with her own hands for the
o welfare Of her household and lends
l. not her ear nor her tongue to frivoli
q ties; whose hand is always reached tC
r lift up the needy and the helpless.

ling of devout colored people in ever!

whelming majority, ma
jority doubtless larger than
that received by any other
candidate on the ticket, and
he would have done this if
he had had a strong Dem
Ocratic opponent, all because
he has made a most success
full official since he has held
the office and has attended
strictly to his business, not
leaving it to the care Of dep
uties or anyone else. When
DR.. Hoye has been needed
all one had to do was to tele-
phone to the Office and he
would soon be in cOmmunlca-
ton with the county coroner,
thereby not being annoyed
with deputies who could not
speak for their principal. 1t
is not in the province of The
Seattle Republican to intro
duce the present county cor
oner to the voting public in
this county, for he is perhaps
known ever better than The
Seattle Republican itself, so

Harold Preston tol the United States
senate, then the Lake Washington
canal will have friend in the United
States senate, and it won't be George
Turner. but it will be Harold Pres
ton.
The campaign in King county was
opened last Saturday evening under
the auspices Of the Young Mems Re-
publican Club, of which George B.
Lamping is leading light. Glancing
through the long liss Of gice presidents
the Pie-maker was astounded to note
that not single Afro-American was
among the number But what more
could have been expected from a club
that champions such a person as
George B. Lamping, who boasts of hav-
ing no use whatever for a ''nigger."
WhlIe the Pie-maker is well aware of
the fact that the placing of no colored
mans name on the list of vice presi-
dents did not lessen the number of lis
teners, but it was singular coincident
that the meeting was very poorly
attended, and Il don't give a damn"
was heard from all quarters on Mon
day when explanations as to the small
ness of the number was asked. The
Republican party of King county will
soon learn that this Young Mems Re
publican Club is going to prove a very
| bad actor, and the sooner that the
| party drops it the better for the party.
The Republican is pleased to note
that in another column hereof will be
found the Republican county tickets
OF Snohomish, Pierce, Kittitas and
Spokane counties. In carrying these
tickets on the local personal page OF
The Seattle Republican it is done in
order that it's readers may become
thoroughly acquainted with the Vari
Gus candidate in their respective coun
ties that are running for county of
fees. While the Pie-maker is anxious
ed, yet it wishes to call especial at
tention to the voters of the various
counties of this state that it is in
cumbent on them from a Republican
standpoint to make special efforts t.

The attention of the Pie-maker has
been called to the necessity of point
ing out to it's readers the duty
of voting for three congressman this
year instead of two. A great many
persons who have been too busy max
ing money have overlooked the fact
that under the new congressional ap-
portionment this state is entitled to
three congressman, which is one more
than she has ever had before. If you
do not desire to vote the Republican
ticket straight, then vote for three
congressman instead of two as hereto
fore. These congressman are nomin,
ated by the state at large and not from
districts as is the custom in many OF
the Eastern states. Again you are
warned to vote for three congressmer
instead of two.

are certainly Office hungry, as will be
seen from the following excerpt taken
from the Tribune:
At the council meeting last Tuesday
night wag suggested that although
only five cOuncilmen were present,
with the mayor and water superintend-
ent, there were six candidates for office
in the crowd-Mayor Anderson, Dem
ocratic nominee for state senator;
Chas. Slater, Democratic candidate for
auditor; H. D. James, Democratic NOM
inee for constable; c. H. Brakeman,
Republican nominee for coroner; B. H.
Morgan for representative and J. L.
Boyle for constable. 1t might have
been called a bipartisan convention.
The roasting that the Times of last
Sunday administered to Mr.. McCon-
naughey's Office as to how it has
been conducted for the past two years
was one of the most shameful conglOm-
Grated messes of prevaricatiOns that
ever blackened the pages of a news
paper. AS to the facts of the matter,
Mr.. McConnaughey did not inaugurate
the overtime system, but it was in
augurated and operated to an excess
under Mr. Whittelsey, the Democratic
county treasurer preceding Mr.. Nc
| Connaughey Since Mr.. McCOnnaughey
has been country treasurer the over
time system has been broken com
pletely and now no one gets any pay
for overtime in the Office. The Times
told a barefaced falsehoOd when il
said that Mr. McConnaughey had beer
buying tax certificates and had made
thousands Of dollars out of the Office
slnce he has been in charge. Mr.
McConnaughey defies the Times o.
anyone else to point out single in
stance where he has bought tai
certificate or warrant since he ha
been in office. The whole article in th'
Times bristled with falsehoods, mis-
statements, pervarications and down
right lies and the editOr-in-chief SHOULD
see to it that such falsehOOds ceas

even if they are for political pul
poses.

George Lamping says he does not
want any "nigger votes" because he
does not need them. Well, certainly
there is not a Negro in King county
that is a big enough ''nigger" to force
his vote onthis Negotiating office
seeker. The statements made by The
Seattle Republican in its fight against
Lamping can all be verified and the
mere fact that Lamping does not con-
tradict them is prima facie evidence
that they are true. If you vote for
Lamping next November you are not
in anywise interested in the upbiuld1ng
of the Negro race Of which you are
a member. No Democrat in heather
Mississippi is worse enemy to the
Negro race than George B. Lamping
and whether you can or cannot defeat
him it is your duty to vote agains1
him as matter of principle.

If Lamping would have attended to
business as he was elected to do, the
auditors Office would have had to hire
one clerk less, and during the two
years King county would have saved
by that alone nearly $2,400. Why is
Lamping not poor public servant?

riendship--Its
Obligations ~ y
81 wRIoHr a. pArrERson.

You have acquaintance, they pose before the world as friends
but have they been put to the crucial test Of sacrifice? Have they
been asked to do for you something that is not to their liking some
thing that will dscommode them; something that is not convenient?
The same test may be applied to yourself. You say you are his
friend, but have you been tried? Has he ever asked OF you some
thing that it is not convenient to grant; something that will make a
difference in your plans or your pleasures; something you would
rather not do? Have you granted the request or have you not?
True friendship, like true love, meets virtually all demands; it
stands every strain; it meets every demanded sacrifice. Your friend
is hungry and you feed him, but the act is not a test of friendship I'm
less you, yourself are hungry and you sacrifice your own desire for
food that your friend may be fed. Your friend is sick and you care
for him, but the act is not a test Of friendship unless in doing SO YOU
sacrifice a pleasure that the friend might be cared for.
You say This friends are countless" Be careful Do not abuse
the word, for it is a sacred word. Are they proven friends have they
stood the test; have they made the sacrifice. Amend the statement
and say 'his acquaintance are countless" There is a vast differ
ence, tSbe sure, but the latter is more often right.
