THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN

The United States advertises that
tits the country where all peoples
have equal rights, when in fact
there are fewer equal rights than
in almost any other country.
Money is the god of this great
country. When W. H. Seward
was Secretary Of State under Lin
coin he gave a dinner to the repre-
sentatives of foreign governments
A Texas senator, who was invit-
ed, said to him, "Mr. Secretary,
are you going to have Mr.. --
at your dinner?" why certain
ly," said the Secretary, che is
the minister from Hayti-" "But, "
said the Senator, che is a niger. y
"Yet he is one Of the finest schol-
ars in Washington" said the Sec
rotary. 81 can't help that, he's
a Niger" said the Senator. "He
is worth half million dollars, "
said the Secretary. "Ah," said
the senator, introduce me. :" You
can see the feelings Of that sena-
tor. He could not eat with the
Negro because he was a minister
from a foreign nation, nor because
he was an educated man, but soon
as the money question came up
he fell down and worshipped at
it's shrine. Everything is being
done to prevent the Negro from
obtaining wealth.

1.-THE QUEEN OF
THE WHITE SLAVES"

Ever since it was announced
that for the third week of the
Russell & Drew Stock company
at the Seattle Theatre, the stu
pendous play "The Queen of the
White Slaves" was to be the bill,
there has been great JOY IN the
hearts Of the patrons of that pop
ular theatre. "The Queen Of the
White Slaves has not been seen
in Seattle for several years, but
everybody remembers that it was
story of enthralling interest,
with a sustained excitement from
start to finish that is seldom
equalled on the stage. At the
time of it's last production at the
Seattle the audiences generally
voted it the best play of the type.

If a womana disguised as boy

the Shuberts are presenting at the

100000 WOMEN BREADWIN-

There are nearly 100000 wom-
en- breadwinners in the United
States.
One million in every five at
work.
Sixty-eight per cent of women
workers are under the age Of 35
and one-feurth have not reached
the age of 81. ~
According to the latest census
report there are in continental
United States, exclusive of Alas
ka, Hawaii and other outlying
districts, 4,833,63O women at
work. This means that Of the
23,500,000 women over Is years
of age in the United States, one
in every five earns her own living
Sixty-fve per cent of the total
number of women at work are
single, while 1853 per cent are
married, 17.7 per cent widows,
and 13 per cent are divorced.
Thirty-six per cent are native
white women, % per cent foreign
born, and the balance divided into
foreign born, whites, negroes and
Indians. @8
Notwithstanding the increasing
diversity of occupations for wo-
men, domestic service still remains
the most important by far of the
occupations in which they are en-
gagged, nearly one-fourth Of the
total number being reported as
servants. The surprise comes that
the next important occupation for
women is that of farm laboR
Nearly one-half a million women
devote their lives to this occupa-
ton; 90 per cent OF these, how
ever, are reported from the south
ern states, and of these 70 per
cent are of the Negro race.

is that of dressmaking, then come

Organized labor is still fighting

We will all have to go to school.
When boys and girls we must go

studies are ended we must go to
some other school to learn how

now they are holding farmers

WISE AND OTHERWISE.


People of little means should
cut out extravaganza. There is
too much the poorer class of peo-
pie trying to initiate the rich. 1t
is no disgrace to be poor, though
sometimes quite unhandy. In
fact the moderate livers are the
happiest and best people this
country has. Trying to keep up
in appearance with the rich has
kept many a family down. Every
one should live within his means,
regardless Of what others have or
do. The family is the happiest
who is content with their lot
Tacoma insists that the city
was named after Mount Tacoma.
Mount Tacoma was never lisped
until that city was large village
and tried to change the name
from Mount Rainier in order to
advertise their town. They also
advertise in the East that the
Navy Yard is in the vicinity of
their Tacoma. What subterfuge
next will they employ to boost up
their real estate interests?
There is an immense waste by
fires each year and mostly from
carelessness. If everyone would
have their buildings properly
built as to the heating and should
thoroughly inspect them every
fall the ravages by fire would be
materially decreased. Every lit
tie while fire is started by cross
electric wires. If those wires
were properly laid and insulated
there would be no fire originating
from that source. City ordinances
with good sound fine would ell
inmate this evil.
Our common schools are the
hope of the future. What shall
the harvest be? That depends
upon the education of the coming
generations. What this nation
shall be depends upon the way
our children are trained. To at
least obtain a good common school
education should be the result to
which every child should attain.
With a good common school edu-
cation and that with a good moral
training for all the coming men
and women this country should
excel all others.
Piles and Wilson, Wilson and

would be doing justice for the
people to cease hiring or giving a
Job to a labor union man. Any
set of men who will prevent a
man from earning a living for his
wife and children are not worthy
the name of man. The sooner the
people eliminate these men the
better for the community at large.
The matter of advertising is an
art. To an experienced advertiser
there appears daily advertise
ments that are not worth a fig.
The man who advertises don t
know it but the expert does. There
are two principal points in adver-
Using to be taken into considera-
ton. First the name, and, second,
the quality. The name of the ar
ticle figures greatly. Take for in
stance, the article of cigars. You
never heard Of a cigar with a long
or difficult name to pronounce
that was a success as a seller. You
want a cigar with an unusual
name and you stammer and can t
think of it and you say, well,
give me an Owl or Red Bird or
Mail Pouch. " There is but very
little difference in the quality of
cigars but it is the familiar name.
SO with all other articles. The
man who has thing to sell and
goes and whispers it down well
is not so likely to collar the dol
lars as he who climbs a tree and
hollers. -
Taft Day should be a boomer.
It is not often we are visited with
a president of this great and opu-
lent country, for presidents are
rather scarce, as we have only one
at a time. When the President
comes we will be greeted by a
very larged sized one, and appar-
entity very well groomed, although
a poor man. The election of poor
men in this country to the chief
magistracy is evidence that it is
not the gold. that counts with the
people but intelligence and com
mon sense.

word of interest and appreciation and

youth. The refreshing charm and

my heart. I know something of your
struggles to gain an education. I

and never rode "pony." But I rode
many a saw-horse. You have worked
and worked hard. You have earned
your reward.
Do you remember Christ's prayer
for those that His Father had given
Him, that none should be lost? I
claim you for Jesus Christ. I claim
you for the higher and more abundant
life. I make for you Christ's prayer
that not one of you lose, by misuse,
your chances in life. You are going
out into the world to take up different
occupations. One of you, so "pro-
phesy' has it, has chosen the hardest
yet the highest work-the ministry.

The saddest sight in this world is
that of a young man or a young
woman "down on the world" soured
on life, who has lost faith and hope
and love. The trouble is not with the
world but with you. The world is
what you make it. Each one meets
the rebound of his own life.

but In DONG them we are no more
performing a religious service than do
the rabbits when they, in obedience to
their sense of hunger, help themselves
to my garden truck.
What is nature without a Personal
God behind it? The religion that
amounts to anything may start with
the religious instinct but develops
into search after God, and comes at
last to the knowledge of Person
whom we love and trust and obey.
This is the kind of religion covet
for each member of this graduating
class. This is the more abundant life
of the text. Choose God. Make God
the God of your intellect, the God of
your heart and the God Of your will.
I want you to have strong vital and
practical faith such as the iron chan
cellor, Prince Bismarck Of Germany,
had whom men are not accustomed to
call sentimental. He said: eff I
we're no longer q christian I would
not serve the King another hour. If
did not put my trust in God I should
certainly place none in earthly
matters. If did not believe in a

dained this German nation to some
thing good and great, would at once
give up my trade as q statesman.

AT the April meeting of the
county commissioners the official
published report of the same shows
that s10,271.5s was paid out for the
first quarter Of this year to the
county officials of this county, which
includes their salary and expenses
while looking after their official work
for the county. Figuring on this
basis for the remaining three quar-
tiers it will cost NezPerce county
SAL ,056.20 for salaries and expesnes
of the county officials. The other
quarters may not be so costly and
they may cost more, but even this
amount does not include the books
used in the Offices or the county
printing for the officials.
After looking over this enormous
sum paid for three months work il
is difficult to keep from recalling
statements made by some in another
section of the county, that a large
could be run SO much more
cheaply than a small one as it would
only take n set Of officials to do
he work. If the advocates of al
arge county will take the expenses
this county and look them over
'arefully and then compare them
