The Marquet Club

When the Argus of this city
says that the vile clubs now
operated by Oscar Collins and
William Bowman were permitted
to be opened up for the benefit
of the colored soldiers now sta
toned at Fort Lawton it as will
fully lied as it always does when
it speaks of the black man. The
fact of the matter is the Mar
quet club has been running wide
open for almost year and was
opened before it was thought
that the colored soldiers would
be sent to Fort Lawton. For
some reason the proprietors of
that club have been permitted to
conduct a wide open gambling
house all these months without
having been molested by the po-
lice authorities in a single in
stance. Rumor has it that Col
Inns has collected some
thing like 81, 800 per month from
the fallen Negro women that
frequent the lower end of the
city, which sum of money he
has turned over to some one and
the presumption is that Collins
and Bowman got their protec-
ton for the Marquet club for the
collection of that money. We
believe but few if any of the
soldiers frequent that miserable
dive, which, if reports be true,
is the worst crime breeding hole
in all Seattle. Those SO called
social clubs in the lower end of
the town are not social clubs, but
gambling holes in which the law
is broken every minute in the
day and the city and county au-
thorities should see to it that
every one of them is closed i'm
mediately if not sooner. Such
institutions are permitted to run
unmolested and the proprietors
of the same are catered to in or
der to catch the colored vote and
that's their share of the political
swag. The candidate who thinks
that he will get the colored vote
by catering to those criminals
has counted without his host and
the sooner he gets right the bet
ter for him politically although
he may pick up some campaign
money by defending them in the
courts.

Does Senator Wesley L. Jones
intend to sit idly by and see
Eastern Washington make a
fight for the election of Miles
Poindexter to the United States
senate and not enter strenuous
protest? If Poindexter is elect
ed will not Jones' seat be en-
dangered when he comes up for
reelection? If such a thing
should happen as PoindeXter be-
ing successful at the polls next
year would not Western Wash
ington rise up in political arms
at the very first opportunity and
see to it that every vote therein
would be cast for a man from
her section of the state and
thereby defeat Jones? In the
opinion of the writer Senator
Jones has had too much political
experience to not be able to see
and verify does see the results of
the election of Miles PoindeXter
or any other Eastern Washing
ton man to the senate next Year.
That being a fact it is the firm
belief of Senator Jones' Wester n
Washington friends that he will
do all within his power to see to
it that some man from Western
Washington is elected as a sue
cessor to Senator Piles. Who
Senator Jones will suppoIt is his
own privilege, but for his own
political preservation it is up tc
him to support some body from
the west side. The state OF
Washington is so geographically
divided that it would be very
commercially unfair to either
section to have both of the sen
ators come from one or the other
section. In speaking to prom

inent Seattle man as to the prob
able election of two senators
from either the eastern or west
ern section of this state he said:
Il would oppose the election of
two senators from Western
Washington just as strenuously
as | will oppose the election of
two senators from Eastern Wash
ington. I worked for the cleo
ton of an Eastern Washington
man last year because the west
ern section had a senator and I
felt that it was due to the other
side of the mountains to Rave a
representative in the senate of
Congress. Because there will
be a multiplicity of candidates
on the west side next year for
Senator Piles seat in the senate
it does not follow that the lead
ing men in Eastern Washington
should take advantage of the OPP
portunity and try to force the
election of man from that side
as a successor to Piles. But to
discuss the subject longer | con-
slider a waste of words because /
know the business men of East
ern Washington can see just as
far into a mill stone as the bust
ness men of Western Washing
ton and will not cut off their
noses to spite their faces. +"

SHOOTING THIRD.

A news dispatch appearing in a
Milwaukee paper this morning, dated
Camp Douglas, said:
ut is still the shooting Third. Two
battalions today qualified more men
with better scores than did the First
and Second regiments with their three
battalions. Thirty-three men made
better than the required 12O to shoot
on the long ranges, while only forty
three in the First beat ll8, and thirty
seven in the Second beat III.
''The Third battalion of the Third
has still to fire and it is certain that
at least dozen of them can qualify.
"This year will undoubtedly see es-
tablished new record for prelimin-
airy shooting that will stand for years
in The National guard of the state"
The names of Capt. Abraham and
Lieut.. Lucas appear among the twelve
high men of the regiment and among
those who qualified are Lieut.. Lucas
and Sergt. Goerling. In collective
firing there were five other companies
making larger scores than Co. G.
Capt. Abraham of Wausau was officer
of the day yesterday.

SCIENTIFIC FARMING.

G. P. Norgord, of the state expert
ment station, is expected in the city
some time in the near future and will
arrange for an event which will be of
interest and value to farmers in this
section. Since a part of the crops
were planted on the county asylum
grounds last spring, the work has
been carried on under the direction of
Mr.. Norgord according to scientific
methods taught at the College of Ag-
riculture in Madison. The results are
most satisfactory and the crops are
growing eXcellently.
Mr.. Norgord will give a public
demonstration at some date not far
distant, probably within few weeks.
The demonstration will be free to the
public ana Marathon county farmers
are expected to avail themselves of
the opportunity of learning something
of the theory of farming.
In his demonstration Mr.. Norgord
will show the most modern methods
of planting and caring for crops. A
special demonstration will also be
made on raising corn. He collected
seed corn in various portions of the
county last March and has germinat-
ed the seed from each specimen
selecting poor, average and the best,
and will show the results, telling how
the best can be selected for next
years crop. He will also give dem
onstration on the raising of alfalfa.
If some of the older farmers who
scott at modern methods will attend
this demonstration they may learn
something that will mean much to
their pocketDook. The old theory
that all one has to do to raise crop,
is to pillow up piece of land, harrow
it, plant it, and then let nature take
its course, has passed away. 1t is now
known that the selection of corn and
other grains is as important as the
correct breeding of animals. 1t is
known that there is correct way and
an incorrect way of conducting farm,
and that little "book learning"
combined with experience and good
common horse sense, make the best
farmer. 1t is that that Mr.. Norgord
intends to demonstrate. He proposes
to show that scientific farming excels
the old hit-or-misS style.

A FEW INACCURACIES.

The Wausau Record-Herald pub
fishes two column article in its
issue of Friday, concerning the Mara
thon County Agricultural society in
which there are a number of inaccur-
acies. The PILOT does not say this in
the way of criticism, for everything
dug out and compiled pertaining to
the early history of our city and
county is commendable. The R.-H.
says that the first fair was held in
1867, but the fact is the first fair was
not held until the fall of 1868. The
race track was not touched until the
spring, of 1868, and then the contract
was let to r.. III. Walrod who COM
pleted it 50 that races could be held
on July 4th, 1868.
The PILOT is of the opinion that
the agricultural grounds could not be
turned over to the city without an
unanimous vote fayoring such plan
by the members of the association.
That vote certainly could not be
secured on the grounds that the
property was To- be made park for
the city of Wausau. Much as we
would all like to see this done, we
doubt that it could be without more
in prospect than just park. The
idea that debt could ever be con-
tracted that would make it necessary
TO give up the grounds is prepoSter-
Gus. That is all moonshine, for a
debt of even $4,000 could he wiped
out by the people of our city and
county with determined effort on
short notice. Another thing, the
grounds were given for specific pur-
pose, and rather than run the risk of
future litigation it would be better TO
let things remain as they are.
