WAS
TOO SHORT

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SEATTLE, March 7.-"Seattle
was not ready for the single tax.
Our campaign of education was
too short and other more spectacu-
lar issues absorbed the peoples
attention"
This was the explanation given
by Councilman o. T. Erickson to-
day for the defeat of the single
tax measure at the election Tues
day. Erickson, who was elected
by the biggest vote ever polled in
Seattle, was the father of the sin
gle tax amendment.
George F. Cotterill Is a single
taxer but the people who showed
their confidence in these two men
turned down their theory.
A strenuous fight was made
against the single tax by the big
land owners, especially those In
the business section.
Erickson says the fight to give
the single tax the try-out will &C
on, but 1t will not be brought ur
again for at least two years.

On n of Eve.

The greatest twenty women have
been made into a list,
But somewhat hastily compiled
the student must believe,
For while he sees a lot of names that
never would be missed,
There is no place in all the score
reserved for Mother Eve.
Although a bone in Adams side, she
sprang to sentient life,
And after that the garden seemed
more joyous than before;
The truth was. Adam needed much
comrade and a wife
Some voice more sweet and sooth-
ing than the gentle lions
roar.
What other woman ever lived who
gossiped with a snake?
Who plucked her raiment from a
bush, and who was always
kind,
So that, though now and then per-
haps she made a slight mis-
take,
was h0Nti hhoWh W Wtdl q ultoc
that buttoned up behind?
She never said to Adam she was
going home to nav"
She never pinned her hat on with
a dagger or a sword;
And il she lacked full measure of a
knowledge of the law,
Her ~nibbling of the apple has
been overmuch d%eplored.
We say a word for Mistress Eve,
sole mother of the race;
She should be in that twenty. and
We want to see IL done.
If none will drop away from 1t to
make the needed space,
Then add her name and let IL
bring the list to twenty-one.
