Vice and Crime
Ruled Seattle
"Complaints that have been made of
the moral Impurity of Seattle were true
and all who have lived there. and kept
' their eyes even half open know it . . : ..
1 "The honest people and the better ele
ment of Seattle are thoroughly In ac
cord with tha work which haa been un
dertaken of purifying that city, and
rendering it aafe for visitors and esU
dents as well. The day of the ral e-off
BRd the brace-game la past, they hope,
and when it is ended the name Seattle
will be differently received by the trav
eling public It wUl no longer be syno
nymous with thugs; confidence men and
arraf tera." .
E. R. Clark, who gave the above to a
reDorter for Tha Journal at the Hotel
Perkins this morning. Is a resident of
Seattle and knows whereof he speaks.
He Is in Portland on business connected
wlth hia occupation, which it that of
. atock handling, "and after remaining
several daya here will go into the south-
. am part of tha state. . ' . - '."
"Have conditions In Seattle been as
bad a they were branded In the pressT"
was asked him. To this query Mr. Clark
replied: , ' , -
. CONDITIONS ARB AWFUL.
"Indeed they have; It haa been a
wide-open town In the fullest sense of
the term. There were gambling games
everywhere, and that means dishonesty,
, for it is mighty hard to run an honest
.'gambling game. Few know Just how
hard it is to gamble and be honest, for
few have tried it. and they went broke1
so soon that their experience was not
'lasting."
"Were the mayor,, the chief of police
ando ther city officers cognisant of tha
nnnriitlntm that xited?"
'Were they? Well I .should say so f
It la an acknowledged fact that the offi
cers have been "getting a rake-ofl for,
their btfndness, and It la no wonder the
' better element finally rebelled. The Clan
cys have been the middle-men In this
matter.- The gamblers and sharpers paid
to the Clancys and the latter handed the
. money over to the police after extract
ing a generous allowance for themselves.
Of course they Would npt do the work
for nothing." . -,:r
HOTELS AND GAMBLING.
Mr. Clark knew of tba arrest of Col.
H. & Dunbar, proprietor of the Rainier
Grand Hotel In Seattle, charged, with
conducting "brace games." " f ?T ' - -'
."iHit true that there' Were regularly
organized igambllng games running in
the Rainier Grand T" asked the reporter,
' Again was Mr Clara empRatlo Jn his
reply. o ., - .- -" -
They were, at it full blast.' he aald.
"Roulette, wheel-of-fortune and every
thing else along -that line.- Anybody -who
went in there could gamble."
. ''Was the Rainier Grand the only hotel
In which games were worked In thla
way?" was the inquiry, but Mr. Clark ad
mitted he did not know, r That there
waa gambling . In other hotels he waa
certain, but , he did not believe there
were regular , games in operation. If
any man mentioned "a game." however,
he u.dnot think there would be any
trouble in finding accommodation,
- TO CLEANSE SEATTLE.
"Trade with the' North and the gen
oral business of Seattle demands that
the moral atmosphere of the city be
purified," said Mr. Clark. "The reason
for this Is plain., People will not come
to a city and make their homea there
when that place is so foul it smells to
heaven. That la why the better element
wants the city cleaned."
Seattle being .a. centralizing point of
commerce, business and trade, gamblers,
thugs and sharpers from all over the
pose of. preying upon the .innocent or
unwary.! ,v, . . ..
' ' MR. FRYE 3 BLUFF.
"You can put it down that the Frye

"The present location of the Frye

These will have to be moved some day,
but you may depend upon It the firm
will never forfeit Kb business and the
immense amount of money that would

(Journal Special Service.)
SEATTLE. Jan.. 81. That the King
County, grand Jury intends to fully ln:
vestlgate the storios of bribery 'and
corruption of certain members of the
present City Council and former City
Councils, .was fullyIndicated this after
noon when ex-Councilman Thomas Navin
was juddenlyfsubpoenaed before; that
body. Ttiaa,tlonof the grand Jury
waa a surprise,, for; it had been sup
posed that the members of the Jury In
tended -first to clear, up the gambling
situation before it started Into other
matters it has- been charged to do.
But as a matter -'oil fact -the Jury has
no set program. It is proceeding in no
systematic way, but is calling witnesses
when -they can, best be used.
Tommy Navin, as he Is familiarly
known, used to -be a power in the First I
war a or tnia: city. Tvnere ne vices 01
the clty'are congregated. Navin was a
councilman for, three or four terms. He
w'as elected on the . v Democratic ticket
Last' 'spring he ran - for re-etectlpn, but
waa defeated by the Clancy gang candi
date. Patrick Fltxpatrlck, a printer.
During his years of service as city
councilman,. Navin was perhaps as lou
fin accusing his colleagues of corruption
as any member or the council. . Navin
waa never known to vote against the
granting of a aalooh license. In fact,
he was dubbad "the saloon man's friend."
But--no. one has ; openly accused ' Navin
of corruption in ofllca. ''
; ,f ld Much TalWaf.
Navlri, however, did a Jlot of taiklng on
the' floor of the City Council. ' Many
times be has furnished Sensational stor
ies for the newspapefs by declaring -that
certain .', of his colleagues . had been
bought. Once or twice he came, very
nearly, causing a tight In the Council.,
chamber. H haa his say, just the
same, although he waa careful enough,
to name no specifto charge of bribery.
The present' , grand Jury has been
furnished "with the facts of Navin's
accusations For that reason he was
called today; and. from the way the ez
ofllclal looked when. be was turned from
the grand Jury room, he must have gone
through a fire of mighty hot Questions.
His face Was red and perspiration stood
out on his brow aa ha hurriedly left the
grand Jury. room. Navin was mad, too.
llti refused absolutely to talk on the
subjects about whlch.he"waa asked, de
claring that ne naa taicen tne: secret
oath. But this much is known to have
been asked him: '
'- . One Crooked Deal.
If he knew why In the summer of 1901
the City Counelrcfused to pass a reso
lution callliur tor a special election to
vote on a oroDOBltlon to- raise the retail
liquor license from $800 to $1,000., At
the time the resolution was first sprung.

SALEM, Jan. 21. At noon today the
Senators died Into tha House of Repre
sentatives for the purpose of taking the
first Joint ballot for United Jtates Sen
ator. The roll call of each house' fol
lowed, the only absentees being Senator
Fulton, Representatives Adams, Hume
and Kramer, Nominating speeches fol
lowed. .,
Senator Mulkey of Polk made an elo
quent address, placing In nomination ex
Governor Geer. He laid- great stress
upon the fact that the people of the
state have jiamed him their choice for
Senator. He said; "The 'spirit of the
American Government demands that the
popular will shall be observed. The
people of a state ought to be supreme.
Every, member of the Legislature who
votea for Governor Geer today will be
voting for one of the eternal principles
of popular government." He- presented
strong reasona why he should be elected.
Hearty applause followed Mulkey'a: ad

Zddy . Vamea Taltoa.
RepresentatlVa-. l3ddr"of jTUlamook,
whose attitude In the Senatorial fight haa
been very uncertain, made a vigorous
reply, challenging . the statement that
Geer Is the people's choice. He declared
that his own county had given a large
vote for Geer, yet this did not express
their real sentiment When Eddy pro
ceeded to nominate Charles W. Fulton,
declaring him the real choice of the
people and ably qualified , for the high
office, there was an enthusiastic demon
stratiorf by members who have been
supporting him.
Senator Pierce of Umatilla, in behalf
of the Democratic members, presented
the name of "That brave soldier, that
brilliant statesman, that able orator,
Hon. C. E. S. Wood." He made caustic
reference to the evident intention of the
majority of the Republican members
to disregard the expression of popular
choice and warned them that- such a
course would surely end In. the people
hurling them from power..
, Xesult No Surprise. -
The result of the Joint ballot was no
surprise. It haa long been Known tnat
both Webster and Huntley would , go
over to" Fulton early In the fight and
there waa Uttlo doubt that Eddy of Tilla
mook would do the same. It Is possible
that Futton mar gain, one or two, votes
tomorrow, but there will be no radical
changes. ' '
The Multnomah delegation still holds
aloof, scattering its vote .among, a num
ber of candidates. , The only thing th
members of the delegation agree upon
Is that for the present at least they will
vote only fpr Multnomah men.-"'
Davey of Marten seconded-the nomina
tion of Geer and warned members of the
legislature that It was not safe to ig
nore the people's will- t .
Praise for Fulton.
Senatot Rand seconded tha nomination
of Fulton. ' He made the assertion that
Geer was not the choice of the Repub
lican party. This ealled forth an em
phatic protest from Kelley,, of Marlon,
ljifollctte who M..the only member of
the Marion, delegation not supporting
Geer, declared he was elected unpaged
and seconded the- nomination of Fulton.
He said no man could charge him With
disloyalty.
The roll was then called, resulting aa
follows: - , ' .
