It's Not Segregation

tTo win the next national, state and
county election so far as King County is
concerned is my highest ambition, and to
that end I am appealing to all Republicans
for their cooperation, F" said Reeves Anymore,
chairman Of the King County Republican
Central Committee last Sunday afternoon
in an address before the King County Col
creed Republican Club. The Central Re-
publican organization is the parent body to
the whole, but it seems to be necessary to
have sub organizations, such as is this club
to reach the goal. If any one has the idea
that in fostering this club the Central or
ganization is encouraging segregation such
an one was never worse mistaken. Like
all the other distinct classes in the body
polite of this country it seems to me that
colored leaders can make more Roadway
lining up the colored voters than can white
leaders and yet the colored Republican is
Just as welcome in the parent organiza-
ton as the white Republican. The men,
bers Of this club will get their full party
recognition not only in the campaign, but
after the campaign. Be it understood, how
ever, that only Republicans will be recog-
nized. Decide among yourselves who you
will have as your representatives and
through your chairman present their names
and, believe me, they will be named" The
above is good organization talk and such
as the old political war horse the late John
Lockwood Wilson Of Seattle used to preach
to his political organization.

General Preston's Demise

One day last week Gen. S. M. Preston OF
this city passed to the great beyond. He
was not quite centenarian, but he was
near it, but remained more or less active
almost to the time of his death. have had
many talks with Gen. Preston, since
he and I first became acquainted in
Seattle. have always rather enjoyed talk
ing to G.. A. R. veterans of the Great Civil
which habit I suspect, I acquired while
living in Kansas in which state lived $780,
900 such veterans. However, after first get
ting acquainted with Gen. Preston I was
conversation, because for a number OF
years he livd in Natchez, Mississippi, which
was but few miles from my birth place,
and he was personally acquainted with hun
dreds of persons with whom [ was ac-
quainted and he was personal friend of
my father-in law. I however. bore him no
i'll will for that. When was lad bidding
and budding for manhood I casually met
Gen. Preston at state Republican func-
ton and learned from the political warehouses;
that he had been more or less instrumental in
the election Of DR.. Hyram R. Revels to the
the House of Representatives and he rem
dered valuable assistance to scores of strug-
Cling colored men and women whose chains
Of bondage he had assisted in the Great
Civil War to burst assunder. But both
Gen. Preston and myself dropped out Of
Mississippi Circles and strange to say sub
sequently met him in a casual way in the
middle west, but did not recognize in him
my Mississippi acquaintance and again we
parted. Gen. Preston s G.. A. R. button at
tracted my attention one day in Seattle and
[ engaged him in conversation and learned
from. him that he was the Mississippi Pres
ton and the middle-west Preston that I had
known at different times The milk in the

digging a canal, which was the sole
reason for its presence there. There
was no desire on the part of the
Government to populate the country
with Americans. The men were
forced to work in malarial climate !:
conditions were insanitary, and ev-
lery man who went there was de-
termined to return to the States as
soon as he had earned enough mon
ey to satisfy his ambitions.
Under these circumstances, in or
der to make the work attractive,
every possible concession was grant
ed the men. Houses were built and
a commissary operated. As a health
measure every man was requested
to visit the North at least once
year, and no inducements were Of
fered for men to settle there per-
manently.
In Alaska it is different. Here
the Government wants employees
who intend to live in Alaska and
help develop the country. This eli
mate is the best and healthiest in
the world, and there is no reason
why anybody should be granted a
free trip to the Outside each year.
Conditions in Alaska and Panama
are as different as the respective
locations Of the countries are dis
tant. There is no similarity either
in the work, conditions, populations,
or aims of the Government, and the
sooner all comparisons between the
two projects are dropped the better
for all concerned.
If the last two demands are grant
ed, it means the destruction of An
chorage and a blow at the develop
ment of Alaska, and, so far as the
| Times is concerned, the granting of
them will be opposed to the last
ditch. In fact, the closing of all
work on the entire project, and the
abandonment of the country to its
primeval conditions, is more agree
able to the Times, and to the resi-
| dent Alaskans, than any concessions
which will bring about the So
called Panama conditions"
/ As to the wages, however, as
stated before, the Times believes in
| a fair payment for services rem
dered, which means that high wages
should be paid. This matter, we
believe, can be settled amicably BY
the representatives of the men and
the officers Of the Alaskan Engi-
neering commission, and any fair
demand by the men will be support
ed to the utmost by the Times,
which, when it tenders its support,
will go the limit.

neering commission, in the Anchor
age division, recently waited on
Chairman Mears and Engineer Gerig
with a request for numerous con-
cessions, including a wage advance
of rs percent. Previous to the ar
rival of the chairman at Anchorage,
a committee was appointed to pre-
sent the requests of the men, and
at later meeting, held on August
Both, this committee reported that
1.-The interview was held according
to plans, and answered by Mr.. Gerig
to the effect that our hands are
tied at present and a reduction is
anticipated until the final word re-
garding the appropriation has been
received" Mr.. Gerig intimated,
however, according to the report,
that the "the boys would be taken
care Of"
After the matter had been dis
eussed at length, the committee was
instructed to take the matter up by
wire with Chairman Mears and John
". Hallowell, at Nenana, in an eff
fort to have the wage scale and
other demands settled Immediately.
Whether or not this was done is not
known here.
Among the complaints recited by
the Anchorage employees was one
concerning the meals provided at
the Anchorage mess. Another COM
plant charged that prices charged
at the commissary at Mile 50 were
exorbitant and in excess of Anchor
age prices.
In addition to an increase in
wages, the coast workers want the
commissary at Anchorage reopened
to all employees and the institution
Of Panama conditions, which include
free transportation to and from Al
aska, six-weeks' vacation each
year, VII transportation 10 and
from the States, and free house rent
for all white employees.
The Anchorage Times has an
rounced that 1t is in favor Of the
highest possible wages to all employ
es commensurate with good bust
ness" but it is opposing the other
demands of the men.
The Government is building a rail-
, road in Alaska in order to settle
this community with an American
population, points out the Anchorage
paper. . . -. With this end in view.
argues the Times, the Government
has laid out townsites and sold lots
to business men and other citizens,
apparently with the intention of en-
couraging them in their efforts and
attracting people to settle along the
railroad.
With an abiding faith in the good
intentions of the men at the head of
the construction work, merchants
and other business men have set
tied in Anchorage, and, it is idle
to state otherwise, are dependent
almost entirely upon the trade of
the railroad employees for support.
Were the commissary TO be opened
and goods sold to all the employees
at cost, it would mean that the mer-
chants would have to go out of bust
ness. 1t would mean a general exodus
from Anchorage which would deal
Alaska blow from which il never
; would recover until the order open
|. ing the commissary was rescinded.
AS to the demand for the same
concessions which were granted the
employees on the Panama canal, prac-
tically the same reasons must be ad-
vanced for its rejection.
In Panama, the Government was
