Industrial freedom. [volume] (Edison, Wash.) 1898-1???, 1899-03-18

closest friends have made us aware you are
Justly celebrated; or, that you can talk like
quarter horse, and III allow write like greas-
ed lightning or, that life is consecrated to
service here, and that the coiony's need
should control the individual preference, and
our knowledge Of the same be a guide as to
the service which we feel it desirable you
should perform. That particular aptitude IS
discovered here sometimes only after neces-
sary experimenting. That the policy OF eX-
pcrimentng involves The possibilitEo oil mis-
take, and therefore it is provided that your
tenure of this office, that tenure of any Office
shall cease when the incumbent ceases to
give that satisfaction which might re&sona-
bly, be expected from another. That as the
scope Of our activities widen these conditions
will be modified In the meantime what
person should dc, land what there is for him to
do,and not What he would do,will necessarily
fix his occupation, while we have concluded
that Interested friends and subscribers may
appreciate the novelty for a time ofhaying our
progress and our experiences narrated from
the point Of view of a new arrival.

Mr.. and Mrs SHELTON ard three daughters
from Fayetteville, Ark, are late arrivals, and
we think they have come to stay.
The weather is now getting warm and
pleasant, the rain is ceasing and the sun keeps
popping through the clouds, welcome WISH
tor.
We women of Equality have been trying to
wait patiently to see the first individual house
going up. And our superintendent of public
Improvement said yesterday, we would not
have to wait much longer as they would COM

FRIENDS AND COMRADES:

We want your help: we need It. all the
world needs it. VIII you refuse to come up
to our aid when you hear this ,;,ll2
To do your duty viii bring you peace and
comfort and joy. Never in the history Of the
race has there been greater need for unaelHsh
devotion to duty, and there has never been
such opportunity for placing your name high
on the scroll of fame and before this world
wide conflict is ended new names win be en-
rolled there far above those that now inspire
Us with hope and courage.
We want to teach socialism and we think
YOU ought to help us to do This since we mus.

The surost way and the easicst to do this is
to get the people 10 THINK and TO do this
they must read. Now, can't you ra one per-

All Sorts of Subjects.

Sister Burgess said, will you write a few
words to the sisters outside. Not being born
Il poetess like Sister Temple, and having a
full sized crop of mumps in the family to
nurse, you must not expect very much. Did
you say humps? Yes, mumps. All the child
rem are getting fat very rapidly, and Bud is
no exception. You don't know Bud? Well,
you will when you come to Equality He is
my little tow-headed three-year old that
roams the hills at viii, or did until the
mumps caught him, and now he "fnks" mann
ma must "wocls me" all the time. If you
could have looked in at Equality this evening
you would have seen how we sisters cooperate
in yard cleaning. Sister Darr. suporintend-
eat of health and sanitation, and four or five
other sisters, rakcd and swept about half an
acre Of ward besides levelirg down good
sized mound-with picks, hoes and shovels.
Now you must not think our men folks idle
or lazy, far from it. They are working like
beavers cleaning our land to put in our crop.
and we like to think that we can help them,
be it ever SO little. They were very much
pie lsed with our evenings work and said
they would give Us vote OF thanks We
think of tackling a large cedar stump tomor-
row which stands in front Of our sewing room

AS We Enter,

Owing tothe random and whilom tour, which
we decided after our atriyalin Seattle to make
to sundry other parts on the Sound, instead
of coming directly TO Equality; and to the i'm
possibility therefore OF determining at that
time Just what train would ultimately convey
us to BELFAST; and to the impossibillty later
when this piece OF information could with ac-
curacy ba toretold, OF conveying it to the
comrades in Equality in time to arrange for a
CONVEYANCE to meet us, we were obliged when
we arrived on Sunday afternoon Feb. 18th, ii
we would sec Equality chat evening, to APP
ply foot power to the problem, and make
those members which furnish so many people
apparently with their springs to logical ac-
ton, get down to their proper business and
tread earth.
And how it rained.! and it made no noise
about it either. Not case evidently OF un-
due elementary exuberance. Just an ordina-
ry rainy season rain understand. I thought
perhaps that the funereal stiffness might be
oue to some great calamity overhead, that
the flood gates were thrown wide open, and
this copious outpo6ring came in vertical jets
directly from the celestial reservoirs Of
grief. Such causes in physical science as /
am familiar with, might apply to like effects
in Montana for instance. But thell not
fit this situation. So ! ana going to set
Up my own theory for this phenomenon.
Satisfied that il they Try to get away with it
they'll be obliged to expand their own be-
yond the limits OF prcconceived proportions,
and that new necessity you know is bad for
an old theory.
And what forcst!! The first / ever saw.
Saw woods aud wildernesscs before. Called
them other nimes, Hadn't seen then.
Those troes tau and stitely fellows, aver
AGING in size along for three or iour miles,
from to feet at the base, and raising some
OF them to d height iJ is said Of 500 feet. Yes,
millions of them are forest Generous al
trurians too. In the amplitude Of their
strength, they bear the Trailer vines and
moases TO lottier onincnees, to wider v1stas.

trees are out OF ight and, as to whether the

And in fact this matter leaves quite load
on his mind until he reaches the clearing and
exposure takes place. ~ hen he viii marvel that
such great trees upon such small roots grew.
