The tragic death of tho ex-Chief
of Police W. L. Meredith in Seattle
on Tucmlay evening at tho handri of
John V. CoiiHidino, scrvcx to illus
trate the desperate nature of the po
litical situation in the Queen City,
and the chance one takes against his
life in swearing to the truth in behalf
of the colored editor of an Afro
American publication. The whole
trouble between Meredith and Con
Hidine was political. Editor Cay ton's
weekly paper, the Seattle .Republican,
had undertaken to cxposo the corrupt
methods by which Chief of Police
Meredith was growing fat in his
iilllco by bribery from factions against
which Considino and his friends had
arraigned themselves. Cayton said
something editorially which caused
his arrest and prosecution for libel.
During the progress of the case Consi
dino appeared as witness against
Meredith and in favor of Kditor Cay
ton. The jury failed to convict the
latter. Meredith was forced to resign
from his olllcial place as chief of po
lice. The result was the meeting of
Meredith and-Consodine, Meredith's
cowardly attempt, to kill his former
friend and the tatter's fatal shot.
Tho political feature of tho tragedy,
however, has not yet been concluded.
One of the leading citizens of Ore
gon, ami tho man to whom much of
tho credit for tho rapid upbuilding
of Eastern Oregon is due, is Hon. J.
M. Church, tho president of tho He
publican State League, and an hon
orable and polished gentleman, u con
sistent and progressive business man
of much more than ordinary fore
sight and ability. Mr. Chiirah is
president of the La Orunilo National
Hank and is interested in many
enterprises in Eastern and Central
Oregon through which the state's ad
vancement is being very materially
assisted. As a politician of keen
foresight and most trustworthy judg
ment Mr, Chinch has no superiors in
tlff state. Ills counsel is sought by
, the ablest party men in Oregon ami
his guidance ami leadership are that
of a man thorough in touch with the
needs of tho masfcs anil familiar with
tliu best means of supplying them.
No man in the state stands higher
in the esteem of tlitiMt who know him,
in-, business, in polities or in any le
gitimate pursuit, hoeia, commercial
or political, than does lion. J, M.
Church.
Mr, J, Edwaid Hawkins, a promi
nent citizen of Seattle and a very in
fluential member of our race in every
walk of life, having successfully prae
ticed law in the Queen City of Wash
ington for many years and now hold
ing an important place on the Repub
lican Central Committee of King
county, has been in tho city during
tho week engaged in tho work of or
ganizing a lodge of new degree in the
tinier of Negro Masonry. Mr. Haw
kins has met with excellent success
in propagating a camp of Mystiu
Khiiners for Washington and Oregon,
many members of the local lodge of
Colored .Masons, Enterrip.o No. 4
enthusiastically allying thonwlvcs
with tho new oragniratiou of Shrin
ers. Mr. Hawkins Is a very able
and popular man and ho leaves no
doubt in tho minds of those who meet
him that his heart is in tho work in
which he is now engaged,

littlo tlonlit that tho iinponiltnn cam

tho history of tho ulato ami that n
oonaiilnralilo nmnWr of now elements
will hu interested in tho result, hnt
tho nso of names of eminent politi

tho factions feel that thoy can "kill

jiumtar of ambitious aspirants left,
After assaying tho role of peace
maker in connection' with tho Till-iniin-McLiuirin
imbroglio in South
Carolina, it will bo small comfort to
Col. Uryun to bo denounced as a
meddler, on one hand, and a half
baked Democrat on the other.
Hon. Charles A. Towno's oil octo
pus is capitalized at $2,000,000. And
yet, only a few months ago, Mr.
Townc was ready to throw n lit every
time he saw more than six figures in
a row.
Thero is a movement in Texas to
send Dill Stewart to congress. Mr.
Stewart is not exactly a plutocrat
swatter, but his going to congress
would bo a fine thing for that body.
Tho French doctors who represent
that tho internal anatomy of man is
not arranged on correct proportions
evidently belicvy that the creature
may bo greater than the Creator.
It Is understood that ono of tho
reasons Senators Tillman and Mc
Liuirin had for withdrawing their
great moral show was to give the
Charleston exposition u chanco.
It is a close struggle to determine
whether Andrew Carnegie, J. l'ier
pont Morgan or tho American jockies
are making tho biggest hit in Eng
land. St. Louis is almost ready to begin
the actual work of buying a munici
pal lighting plant for its pulbic
buildings.
Hypnotism and psychic suggestion
are two handy exeusses for those who
want to escape responsibility for their
acts.
