THE PASSING THRONG

THE PASSING THRONG
Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers Of Spokane were
visitors in Seattle for few days the week
past For the past sixty days Mr.. Rogers
has been in the employe of the legislature
and after the adjournment they came to
Seattle for a short stay. While in Olympia
he had quite a laughable experience In
complexion he is light muato and on
reaching Olympia he went to one of the
best apartment houses to get quarters for
himself and family. The proprietor saw
him by the lamp light and he might be any
thing, but cOlOred man and he was ac-
commodated. On the morrow, however, it
presto change and he was told to sur
render the apartment which he refused to
do on the advice Of a representative from
Spokane and so he occupied his luxurious
quarters during the session. How strange
the white man will refuse accommodations
to a man so white that he is taken to be
white
Mrs Susie Revels Clayton was a visitor
in Olympia last week and spent couple
of days looking over the capital city. It was
her second visit thereto, the other being
TWENTY-FIVE years ago. and to her the city
looked much the same the other day as it
did when she first saw it. The capital city
twenty-five years ago was the mecca for
the Republican politicians of the state and
while the most of the heavy work was done
in either Seattle or Tacoma yet an occa-
sional visit to Olympia to keep in touch
with the official family was customary.
Mrs. Clayton accompanied the editor of the
Seattle Republican, who happened to be
her husband, to Olympia and the three
days they were there they were quartered
1.-THE Olympia Hotel, as special guests of
the management, ---..~~..-~... Smith, and the
nice things of the hotel and the city were
hers. Editors those days enjoyed many
favors free gratis what others had to pay
big prices for.
1t DR.. Cooper will but adopt the slogan
OF the City Of Tacoma some years ago.
"Watch Tacoma grow and apply it to the
King County Colored Republican Club it
will but mildly express the rapid strides
the club is making under his leadership.
AT it's last regular meeting the room wan
comfortably filled with enthusiastic mem
