OUR MANY CRIMINALS.

Despite our boast Of having reached the
highest pinnacle of civilization of any other
nation on the face Of Gods green earth, yet
if the record of other American cities even
favorably compares with that Of Seattle then
the great army of criminals in this land of
the free and home Of the brave" is sufficient
ly large to threaten a war OF determination
on all persons, who do not believe as do
they. During the year 1906, which closed
it's eyes last Monday night at II o'clock,
over 5000 persons were arrested by the po
lice in the city on either petit or felonious
charges, and placing our population at 2OO
900 it means one out of every twenty-five Of
the citizens of the city were hauled before
the police judge on a criminal charge, to
say nothing of the hundreds who were taken
before the other two justices of the peace.
All told one would be perfectly safe in say
ing one in every twenty persons living in
Seattle were arrested some time last year.
Of course Seattle is a seaport town and the
slums Of the earth drift here, but it looks
as if our civilization was as much a Grim
inal breeder as a Christian breeder. No
country perhaps in the whole world has
worse criminal record and it begins to look
as if it would be more beneficial for the
United States to call in her foreign mission
aries and put them to work at home.
The Seattle Republican., 1907-01-04

DR.. Josiah Strong, president Of the institute,
has been looking into the subject and has
this to say
'We in the United States kill in four
years some $4,000 persons more than fell
in battle and died Of wounds during the four
years of the Civil War We are killing more
than twice as many every year as perished
by violence in both the French and English
armies in the three years of the Crimean
War.
''There are more killed and wounded on
our railroads every year than the entire
losses Of the Boer War on both sides in three
years We have industrial casualties enough
every year to keep one conflict like our war
with Spain going on 1000 years, or twelve
such wars going on for 100 years. Our
peaceful vocations cost more lives every two
days than were lost in battle during the en-
tire Spanish War.
From the best statistics obtainable I may
say there are today $4,000 persons in the
United States under sentence of death to be
executed at an unknown moment during the
next ten years, 100 next week and the same
number every week until the gnastly work
is completed An intelligent and earnest ef-
fort would procure the reprieve of a multi
tude of these innocent victims.

PASSING EVENTS.

A social war of determination has been
declared on the uniformed soldiers of Fort
Walla Walla by the "400" Of the city Of
Walla Walla and the first move in that di-
rection was when Mrs A. 3. Painter pro
prietress Of fashionable skating rink, re-
fused to sell the soldiers desirous of visiting
her skating rink any but spectators tick
cts, y the amusements of the floor for skating
being denied them, and she explained.
"The soldiers are not taken in socially
here and we can't take them in when they
are not received anywhere else The public
won't have them We have no objection to
them ourselves, and I am sorry we have to
exclude them, but there has been great OBJ
jections to them among the select class who
patronize us. You see, it is not like the
theatre where they have seats They mlngle
more here So we have made rule that
no common soldier in uniform shall be al
lowed on the floor"
Indignant at the social snub the soldiers
threaten to call President Roosevelt's atten-
ton to it just as though President Roosevelt
was a little Jesus or an absolute monarch
of all he surveys Negro troops were sta
toned at Ft Walla Walla Immediately pre-
ceding the present troops now there and
the Negro troops were not only socially os-
tracised by Walla Walla's 400, but they
were civilly ostracised and many ii not all
of the hotels, restaurants, theatres and
places of amusement being closed against
them-and yet they never once thought
of calling President Roosevelt's atten-
ton to those insults and if they had
they would have been drummed out OF camp.
Now let these fellows take their medicine
as did the black boys. It's clear case OF
not being wanted and you should not want
to go where you are not wanted.

LAST SUNDAYS WRECK.

The Baltimore & Ohio railroad, in which
45 persons were instantly killed, thus ending
the old wear as she begun in blood and car
mage, serves to remind us that a convention
will be held in New York beginning Janu-
ary 28th and lasting two weeks under the
auspices of the American Institute of Social
Service for studying and exhibiting safety
devices for dangerous machinery and other
things to avoid fatal industrial accidents.

It's no idle dream to say the P.-I. s Pros

AT SPRUCE STREET BAPTIST
CHURCH.
Sacred Concert Sunday at P. M.
Promises to be a Grand Affair.

Judging from the extensive prepara-
tons and the names of prominent
singers and musicians in the list be-
low, the sacred concert Sunday even
ing at Spruce Street Baptist Church,
promises to eclipse anything Of the
kind ever witnessed in this city. Prof.
J. A. Porter and DR.. A. NJ Townsend,
the promoters and managers, need no
introduction to the public They
have done enough in giving high-class
entertainments for all to rely upon
a simple promise that they will have
an enjoyable program. This promise
has been made. 1t is learned from
Prof. Porter that the services Of Mr..
Frank Fowler, the bass soloist, who
was until resently with Madam Coles
Jubilee Singers, has been secured for
the occasion, as well as others. A
few noted ones are Messrs. c. H. KEEL
ly, Shedrick Joiner, DR.. Hampton
Misses M. e. " Reed, Josie Saun
ders, Jennie Dunson, Madams Nellie
Dunlap, Nellie Young, A. M, Town
send, Bessie Isaac, Josie Henderson

been selected by DR.. A. M. Townsend
and Prof. Porter. The concert viii
