The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1911-07-28
FRIDAY, July %, 1911

When the county commission
ers refused to expend 81, 600 on,
for completing a piece of road
near Renton simply because the
state had done the work they
showed that they were sadly
lacking in good judment. Sup
pose the state did begin the
work, it was for the benefit of
the people in and about Renton
and Seattle and it would bene-
fit no other community, but the
the one in which it is located.
1t is another case of straining
at a gnat and swallowing a
camel.
E. B. Cox, state senator from
Walla Walla, spent last Monday
in Seattle and spoke as follows
concerning general conditions of
the state: Eyes, times are very
dull in Eastern Washington the
same as in Western Washington,
but the east side will harvest
the biggest wheat crop that it
has for the past twenty years
and the wheat crop alone will
put two million dollars into cir
culation. Hard times in that
section can not last longer than
when the wheat begins to move
and then add to the wheat crop
the other crops such as Eastern
Washington never fail to har-
vest and the man with the farm
is in luck this year such as he
has not been for many years.
There is too much business ahead
to think about politics and | am
not certain as to weather | will
be candidate for re-electian or
not.
J. F. DOUGLAS, president of
the Potla+ch Association, is in
sisting that the public be given
a final account of how the
Potlatch money was expended
and he is on the right road.
The question is, who among the
trustees of the association that
are arguing against it? and how
much did they get that did not
belong to them? Too often has
this been the case and it ought
be broken up. 1t is said of one
of the officers of the late la
mented A. Y. P. that he made
an immense fortune out of it
owing to the fact that he was
an officer and knew how to d.
rect things so as to get the
money for himself, and he has
not as yet been called to &C
count for it.
So antagonistic are the Jap
anese and Chimes to each other
that even in foreign country
where the two races meet it
is impossible for them to min
gle without race conflicts fol
lowing thick and fast. What
a pity two races show such a
lack of common sense.
George w. Jeffries, a former
state representative from Seattle,
who went to Alaska early in the
season to seek a fortune, has re-
turned to Seattle and left the for
tune up there and with no pros
poets of it coming down to him.
"The controversy that has been
going on over Alaska has COM
pletely frightened capitalists from
the country and it is now in a

BRIGNARDELLO
 WAS CONVICTED
JURY IN couRi ASSESSED FINE OF $40 FOR PERMITTING IN
 cREss AND EeREss.
Prosecuting Attorney Did -ot en' deavor to Prove the Actual Sale of Liquor-case Was
 Appealed.

Dominick Brign1rdello, keeper Of saloon at Malvern and Valley stfeels
 was yesterday afternoon in Justice Affords court fined $40 and costs, by a jury Of six, under a charge of permitting ingress and egress rom 1 his saloon on last Sunday, when Constab Ca erite, undertook to en- force strictly tn Sunday saloon laws.
 Prosecuting Attorney Wood was present and conducted the case TOT the state, while w. c. Bouic rep resented the defense. At the an nouncement of the verdict counsel for the defendant gave notice of~a motion for an appeal to the circuit court.
 It was not attempted in the trial of the case to prove that Brignar- dello, or his bartender, Fred Mazzia, really sold intoSicants on last Sun day, but tiile> --<se was based solely on the state law aB to ingress and egress from a galoo 1.
 Because a rt stam ant is conduc1od on the pr smisss, it could not be pre- sumed that the persons the cons-a- ble or his deputies had seen going and coming were there for intoxl- cants, and the defeI,se witnesses te-- tified that no liquors had been sold but there was evidence that the sa- loon porter, the ice man, and the bartender, had been through a door Iconnecting the restaurant department with the saloon, and that was ss--. cient to the end.

Christmas Favors

Even If the hostess is only intending to entertain the family, she will prob ably endeavor to tighten up her table with some Christmas faVors.
 The shops presented millions of these last week, and so, if you were to make round of the dinner tables today you would see so many that the greater part of them would slip your mind.
 Some tables will be graced only with Christmas cards bearing holiday senti- ments. while others. more elaborate, will have crepe paper baskets filled with candy for the women and crepe paper canes for the men.
 There will also be white candy boxes with a snowfall and a tiny holly spray on top; red sleds with holly; lack Hor- ner pies; snow men, and little red satin coats with holly boutonnieres.
 Of course, Santa Claus will be seen in various poses-jumping out of a basket. climbing out of a chimney, mounted on a snow pile decorating a Christmas box, driving an automobi e. and so forth.
 Just bear in mind that 1t is not so much what you have for dinner as t,4e little fixings on your table that count.

 But you love silver photograph frames, don't you?" I asked.
 He grinned ingenuously and said:
 Depends upon whose picture Is in it. The one picture in the world I'd like to own wouldn't be given me to save my life, because the girl won't have her photograph taken. What do I need with photograph frames when She's the eter- nal negative?"

Legends of Christmas Eve


 Tradition says that the hour of the Babes birth was the hour of midnight, and legend adds that from then until dawn cocks crow. In Ireland 1t is held that whoso looks into mirror on this eve will see the devil or Judas Iscariot looking over his shoulder surely thought sufficient to drive the hardest soul to a thought of the innocent Babe.
 Another legend tells that, on Christmas eve, Judas Iscariot Is released from that hell-'his own place"--and Is allowed to return to earth that he may cool himself
 in icy waters
 Wild and improbable although such and such legends appear on their faces. they bear study and repay it. for we then see that they are full of subtle spiritual expression, as it were that they are parables of certain spiritual facts. and it will be i'll for us should the Christmas day ever dawn on which such flowers of tender faith and wonder shall appear to us no more than dry curious specimens from the dead roots of superstition.

Catholic churches to usher in Christmas day by the celebration of three masses, one at midnight, the second at carly dawn, and the third in the morning. This custom dates from the sixth century.
 Preparatory to Christmas the bells are rung at midnight throughout England and the continent After the solemn celebra- ton of the mass in the churches of the continent which are magnificently adorn- ed for the erfestival, it is customary for the worshipers to partake of a collation..
 Christmas revels form phase of Christ mas celebration that comes largely from pagan observances. These were, in earlier days, accepted as a sort of compromise with ancient customs. The Roman festi- val to Saturn to mark the winter solstice, the turnng point of the year, and the Greek festival to Bacchus, correspondsd in dates to the Christmas season, while the custom of exchanging gifts. of dec crating buildings and lighting tapers, was common to both.

Christmas in Peru

The Plaza Major, or principal park, is the center of the celebration. In the mid dle is a magnificent fountain decorated with lions and angels, surmounted by a statue of Fame. Here hundreds Of jets of water leap up in the air, filling the atmosphere with freshness. Bands of negroes dressed in flowing red robes, some masked, sing weird chants and dance with wild. fantastic steps to the accompaniment of guitars and castanets. The Indian women, their long, black hair sweeping in masses almost to their feet, wave wands as all circle around with a graceful, flowing motion to soft music played on lute and harp. Ice stalls are scattered over the square, where the merrymakers can indulge fin what they consider luxury. for Christmas comes In midsummer in Peru.
