The Seattle Star Newspaper, February 5, 1914, Page 1

Here is pleasant news. We -have a brand-new novelette, and we're going to let you read it. It will run all next week. It is called “A Man, a Maid and an emg Bs it comes hot and pulsating from the typewriter of Fred L. Boalt of The Star staff. It is in our opinion one of the most damnable outrages ever perpetrated. The scenes are laid in Seattle, and many of the characters are taken from real life here at home. Among them may be mentioned Dr. Matthews, Chauncey Wright, Jacob Furth, Detective Mark po man and Mayor Cotterill. The narrative will be profusely illustrated by actual photographs, especially posed for The Star by the players at the Seattle theatre.

SEATTLE, WASH., THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1914. ONE CENT Yiws'transn HOW JACOB FURTH BUNKS THE PUBLIC\ Jacob Furth has fed us lavishly during the last few days with his taffy in the kept press, telling us what a kind, benevolent institution the Puget SAY NAUNUULAAU HATTA | ee ed, no = Sound Traction, Light & Power Co. is. “We paid $800,000 in taxes to the people,” he said, BUT HE DID NOT TELL US THAT DURING THE | | SAME PERIOD THE PEOPLE PAID HIS COMPANY $5,732,360 IN TAXES. He did not tell us that residents of Seattle were taxed or $1,500,000 more to keep up the Puget Sound Traction, Light & Power Co., the Telephone Co., the Seattle Gas Co. and the Seattle, Renton & South- ern line) THAN TO MAINTAIN THE WHOLE OF THE SEATTLE CITY GOVERNMENT WITH ALL ITS DEPARTMENTS, AND ALL THE IMPROVEMENTS, STREETS, SEWERS, REGRADES, ETC. In 1912, the public service commission’s records show the total gross earnings of these four corporations were $8,698,974. Seattle residents paid that as tribute to the bondholders in Boston. During the same period they paid but $7,112,206 to run the city government. KIND — POLITICS SPEAR TO UNDERGO | ie NS FOLLOW.
