eff suffrage wins in November it will
be the solidarity of Washington labor
that will be its strongest help" is the
conclusion of Mrs. p. P. Stafford and
Mrs. Rose Moore of Spokane, who have
returned from a tour of the state in
the interest of the suffrage amendment.
Their visit in Everett will be remem-
bered by many. In speaking of Ever
EFT they declare this city to be the most
strongly organized city in the state.
They found the unions everywhere
ready to endorse suffrage, only indi-
vidual members here and there oppos-
ing it. The unions promised their sup
port on election day and gave liberal
donations toward the campaign fund
The local suffrage club has found the
same condition existing. Representa-
tives from the organization have had
the most cordial reception wherever
they have appeared, and their visit to
the local BARRIERS union was followed
by a check of $40 received at the head
quarters from the union to be used in
the campaign. Other unions are con
siderng similar action.
This simply confirms experience
wherever political reforms have been
under consideration, whether in this or
other countries. Reforms spring from
the people. Business is conservative
and financial interests always fear
change. Were it not for the ever-ac-
tive upward and onward striving of the
would rot in its tracks. A glance at
the political history of this country
will quickly show that the political ut
terances of the workers, whether in
town or country, whether farmers or
mechanics, have always been on a high
er plane than the political statements
made by tho parties or conventions
where business men have been in con-
troll. Reform measures have always had
a double chance of passing where the
working people have interested them
selves sufficiently to go to the polls.
The only reform measure which is
a state issue in the present campaign
is the proposition to so amend article
vi as to allow women to vote on the
same basis as men. The passage of
that amendment is of particular i'm
portance to workingmen. Tn the equal
suffrage states almost as soon as the
political influence of the women could
be felt, reforms We're enacted which
touched labor. Where the state was
a direct employer, as in the case of
school teachers, the wages of women
teachers went up to the same level as
the mems where they did the same
work. Everywhere they have helped leg
islate against child labor This help
alone. which the women would render
in protecting future generations, would
be reason enough why organized labor
should. to man, vote for equal suf-
frage. for it is through child labor that
greedy wealth saps the strength and
intelligence of the coming generations
of toilers and puts them thus much
more at the mercy of their despoilers.

character we clearly perceived the
contamination of Fate. We gasped in
the rapid modification Of the air.
IA furious delirium possessed all
men; ana, with arms rigidly out
stretched toward the threatening
heavens, they trembled and shrieked
aloud. But the nucleus of the de-
stroyer was now upon us--even here,
In Aidenn, shudder while speak!
For moment there was a wild lurid
light, alone, visiting and penetrating
all things.
"Then-let us bow down, Char
mo:m, before the excessive majesty OF
the gr at God! then there came
shouting and pervading sound. as If
from the mouth itself Of HIM, while
the whole incumbent mass of ether in

a species of intense flame, for whose
SURPRISING brilliancy and all-fervid
heat even the angels In the high Hea-
ven OF pure knowledge have no
name! Thus ended all"
1t will be observed that Poe finally
makes the comets nucleus touch the
earth, thing that may possibly hap
pen with some future comet, but
which cannot happen in the case of
the comet of HALEY.
Besides, after the time when Poe
wrote an actual encounter of the
earth with a comets tail is believed
to have occurred.
This was in 1861, when a great
comet swung as Halley's Is now eX-
pected to do, between the earth and
the sun, swishing its long tail over
the globe, and the only consequence
noticed was slight misty light in the
air on the night side Of the earth.
1t may be remarked that the por-
ton Of the tail of the comet Of 1861
that is supposed to have passed over
the earth was situated at about the
same distance from the comets head
as will be that Of Halley's comet.
The earth, however, did not pass CEN
'i"'iS SiAou6h IiiS Soil, diu, Lux as
that is concerned it is not likely to
pass centrally on the present occa-
sion.
The deeper the earth is buried in
the tail, the denser the latter is likely
to be. 1t is conceivable that we
might pass through portion dense
enough to produce other effects than
those imagined by Poe.
Among the effects which it has been
supposed might be produced by the
passing Of a comets tail over the
earth is the introduction Of particles
of the matter serving as the nuclei Of
dust, which, slowly descending to the
surface, would produce physiological
effects Of the nature of influenza. But
this presupposes considerable quan
tity of such dust.
All things considered, it is proba-
bic that the only results of the ex-
pected encounter that can be dectect-
ed will be Of an electrical character,
and here VIC are too much in the
dark to make any precise predictions.

shot and killed Becky Chisolm, a
colored domestic in the employee of
his mother, last night at the Will

1t appearing that Williams fired the
revolver, which he thought had been
unloaded and which the woman had
snapped three times at him. The
45-calibre bullet passed through the
arm and then entirely through the
body. The slayer was committed to
