The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1909-06-11

Hundreds of inquiries are
being made as to the treat
ment accorded Afro-Ameri-
cans on the grounds of the A.
Y, P. Exposition. While it is
impossible to make personal
replies to all such inquiries
THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is
in position to state for the
benefit of such persons that
the Negro fares just as well as
the white man on the grounds
In most of the eXpositions that
have been held in this country
there is no denying the fact
the black man was discrimin-
ated against, but that is not
true of the Seattle Exposition.
The managers and the citizens
desire to make the Big Show a
success and all propose to see
that every visitor is given a
square deal. There are about
200 Afro-Americans employed
on the grounds and if they are
not being accorded proper
treatment, they are keeping
quiet about it, and black folk
do not do that way very long.
Seattle does not do things by
halves and if you feel like
coming to see the show Seattle
will welcome you.
How about accommodations
in the city? There will be no
more trouble about that than
your reception on the grounds
Thus far we have heard none
of the larger and more expen-
siye hotels closing their doors
against the Negro, if you have
the price this is said advised
ly-you can get a room in the
best hotel in the city. Think
ing that a majority of the
Afro-Americans would prefer
to stop with people of their

in dealing with the public and
for that reason are we'll pre-
pared to serve those who take
up their quarters at their
house with consideration and
care. Mrs. Cayton has been
a resident of Seattle for the
past fourteen years, while
Mrs. Tester has only been in
the city for a short time, hail
ing from Charlottesville, Indi-
ana, where she served the
public as a school teacher SO
long that she is widely ac-
quainted throughout the Mid
die west.
While weekly roomers are
solicited, yet a number of
rooms will always be held in
reserve for transients thus
making it possible for dele
cations desiring to visit the
fair to get accommodations at
the same place.

H. L. Emerson reported Monday
morning that his orchard of 200 Bald
win apple trees recently set out on
Ames hill had been visited by deer
| Only one out of the 200 trees escaped
damage. Mr.. Emerson visited his or
chard Sunday and discovered that deer
| had evidently been at work. An IN
vestigation showed that scores of the
trees had been so badly nibbled that it
is doubtful if they survive. The tree
that escaped was protected by pile of
stone. In some cases the bark had been
entirely removed from the trunks of the
trees. As the orchard had been plant
ed only about year the trees offered
tempting meal to the deer. The inhabi-
tants of Ames hill say that when the
omen season arrives there will be some
thing doing in the way of deer hunting.
1t is safe to say that hunters of these
animals will be welcomed in that see
ton. The orchardists are beginning to
wonder if il ism I cheaper to take their
firearms and make war upon the ami

SANTA'S HELPERS

The great black iron frog
that served as coal scuttle in
the daytime lifted up his head
and croaked twice at the 1000

time for Santa Claus" he said.
you'd better peep out and watch
him come down my chimney. The
fire is nearly out, and if he steps
lively he won't even 4orch his
fur Shoes"
Just then there was queer
jingle-jingle of bells and a soft,
sliding sound on the roof.
Swish, swish-somebody was
coming down the chimney. The
coal scuttle frog hoped closer
and peered into the chimney's
depths. Hes coming; l see his
feet" he croaked excitedly. and
pretty Coo-Coo welcomed in her
little cooling voice the chubby,
smiling Saint Nick, who stepped
briskly out of the fireplace.
Quick, Froggie," Santa cried.
I'm later than / ought to be to-
night. You and Coo-Coo must
help me decorate this Christmas
tree. He put some things on the
table that Coo-Coo was to carry to
the top of the tree, while MI.
Frog was busy limbering up his
iron joints so he could place some
things beneath the tree while
Santa filled the stockings.
Puppy, hearing the commo-
ton, wandered in to see what 1t
was all about, but just as he
came in Coo-Coo hurried back to
her clock to cry out the hour.
and Santa's legs disappeared up
the chimney, while Froggie hop
ped back to his place beside the
crate and went to sleep.
Puppy. puzzled at seeing every
thing quiet, went back to bed
again and thought he must have
been dreaming of hearing queer
noises.
