few days looking over his mining in

up with the camp and expects to re-
turn in the near future to spend the
summer.
A fine strike has been made lately
In the lower end of the camp by
couple of Italian boys. They have
tunnel in about thirty feet under

three feet wide showing some free

this strike. Atlanta people wish then
every success. They are among the
some of the oldest claim holders in

Atlanta has good looking future
and there is every reason to believe
that it will develop into a large

Congressman Cushmall Dead

All that can or could be said
as to the death of the late Fran
els w. Cushman has been said
and whatever else that is said
must be that Of the individual,
and it is from that standpoint
that we undertake to say any
thing of him. Like most men
who knew Frank Cushman we
had a personal friend in him and
personal friend that it was al
ways q pleasure to meet. Few
persons are possessed of those
pleasing qualities and winning
graces to enable them to be the
sunshine that enters every life
they come in contact with, but
of the few, all must admit, that
Frank Cushman was one of them.
If any one has ever spoken i'll of
him such person has spoken it so
low that the other fellow did not
hear it. What a grand and glo-
rious thing it is for one human
being to be the Balm of Gilead
for the rest of the human family,
most Of whom either take on to
themselves the weight of the
world or refuse in any way to
become his brothers keeper,
thus living to him or herself, but
Frank Cushman was always
balm for the broken-hearted and
the soul sick he always had word
of good cheer and consolation
when he met you. Everybody
knows that Frank was one of
the "men" of this country and
to retell that in this connection
would neither be news nor in
formation to them, but before he
became famous in the affairs of
the world he always tried to
please those with whom he
came in contact.

It is with gusto that Humphries will recite to those
whom he and will stop long enough to hear him
tell of his certain success of
Has Miscegenation winning the last office which
Nightmare he has announced himself
candidate for, which he is en-
titled to for the various that he has been in

state and the great amount of good they have been
the tax payers. Just how however, Humphres did all
this those who have been in the state ever since he has
and who have been right with those who make the
laws ever since Washington has been state, are in
quandry toigure out but Humphries says he did, and
he must have, for Humphres never prevaricates only
when he wants office. With the view of further per-
petuang his memory in the legislative archives of this
state the distinguished John E. HUMPHREYS with the
assistance of DR.. Ghent King countys silver tongued
orator. has ordered the extraordinary session of the leg
islature the regular session to pass a law pro-
hibiting white men from ntermaaryng with the darker
races at the pain and penalty of long the pen
itentiary Now if all white men were of the John E.
HUMPHREYS stripe it would require fast going to
corral a colored woman long enough to marry him.
Again, if all the white were of the HUMPHREYS
Chadwick stripe then the coored folk of this country
The Seattle Republican., 1909-07-09

should feel themselves awfully
humiliated and likewise degener-
ated, if they were forced by
law to marry one of them,
and the colored folk themselves
ought to petition the legislature
of the various states to- pass
laws preventing race miscegena=
ton. But seriously it is peculi-
arly strange that the white men
are always trying to have some
law passed preventing white
men from legally marrying mem
hers of the darker races when
they never close their eyes of
their animal passions to the
charms of the most repulsive
female types to be found among
the ''niggers, Chinks, Japs and
Squaws. Oh, consistency, thou
art a jewel. To make a long
story short, neither Humphries
of want offs fame, nor Chad
wick of the Angus" will ever
remember seeing so foolish a law
put on the statute books of the
state of Washington.

the mailing of thousands of clap trap circulars compiled
by himself rehearsing his own greatness. And thus
could thousand and things of similar nature be
cited all tending to prove that John E. Humphries is
suffering from dangerous case of "ofiis mana' that
may prove fatal

haps observed it and failing to be able to answer the
mpled question passed but to this day those who
saw it would like for to explain what was 1t!
In politics John E. Humphries is exact counterpart
of Barnums What Is It?'' Apparently he is man
with average intelligence and yet he is the political
laughing stock of the state. He has sought almost ev
ery office high and low in the gift of the voters and
never had any show of getting office than would
an Afro American in Senator Hllmans home town.
His mania for office has always been looked upon by
the leading men of the state and community in which
he has resided as mild form of harmless want ofis
insanity The announcement in gathering of men
that Humphres is candidate for office always evokes
a round of merriment and laughter For time he was
simply huge political joke but his hankering for office
has taken on more violent form of later years. and if
he does not get to be police judge dog catcher some
thing else equally honorable, God only knows what will
happen to the man.

grow them in time Careless faults soon
become fixed habits which are difficult
to eradicate. because they are followed
almost mechanically, and in later life
these habits may stamp the pOssessor as
unrefned and may prove very serious
bar to social success.
Manners, refinement, rules of good
breeding are much discussed in these
days, and we judge people severely by
the breach Of Evolutionary laws, and
choose our society and even Our friends
by the tombstone OF courtesy.
Parents and inetrrCt0-s are not the
only teachers. They begin the work
which we must make perfect ourselves.
The rules which apply TO the training of
children apply equally TO their elders.
The Basic Law Of G3od Manners
The first rule in social customs is to
do nothing that may be disagreeable to
others; therefore, at the table, a we'll
bred person is careful TO avoid idgeting
about in his chair, or crumbling his
bread, or playing with the silver or other
articles he is careful to cat slowly and
with his mouth closed. and not to talk
with food in his mouth, nor does he
make any sounds when eating or drink
ing.
He does not draw his chair It'd so
close to the table that he IS compelled
TO lean back in It to keep any sort Of
position, nor does hc lean his elbows on
the table, nor does he talk loud and
nlo7opolize the conversation. Above
al. he does not talk On disaereca5le
subjects nor tell Of ua-lcasant grae-
some incidents or shocking accidents.

before discharging their cargo, animate
and inanim2tc- hence the origin Of quar-
antine.
But it is little more than a half a cen
fury since quarantine was established
on any thing ike a scientific basis, and
quarantine IS the national way to pre-
vent the introduction OF disease into the
country. The number Of lives saved
and the amount Of sickness which Is
thus prevented IS inCalculable. Epl-
denies of cholera have been kept in
allowance. attacks Of dread tevers have
been STAYED, fatal Ioathsome plaques,

To learn what an enlightened quar-
antine has done for the peoples or

sarv to turn back the pages OF history
and read of the depopulation which these

The measures OF. prevention have also

amount for the growth, health and main
tenance of the bodies Of those who sit
at the table and partake of them. With
the growth Of education along these
lines, the llousckeeper who neglects these
facts IS wei nigh criminal.
The amount of nourishment that
should be eaten by each to preserve
health and keep the bodily powers at
the best is another problem to be met.
The public authorities are exercising
more supervision than ever before, and
laws are enacted to ensure the purity of
foodstufs, but on the housekeeper de-

the thoughtlessness which characterizes
the family cooking and the provisioning
of the family board.
