PRINTERS HOME
ON CANVAS

One cannot but be interested in the
systematic nationwide campaign be.
ing waged at the present time against
the Great White Plague. Medical
science, the pulpit, the press and SO
cieties without number have combined
to fight this dread disease and are
carrying on a great work of education
among the people. Foremost in the
ranks of these forces is the Interna.
tional Typographical Union. The work
being done at the Printers Home at
Colorado Springs is attracting the ad-
miration of the world. Right living,
sanitation and plenty of pure air is
the remedy taught and practised at
the sanitorium and it is accomplish
ing wonders in curing and checking
the ravages of tuberculosis.
The Edison film concern has pre-
pared moving picture reel showing
the work being done by the Typo
graphical Union at this famous health
resort. Upon being notified that such
a film was being prepared the local
union officials took up the matter of
exhibiting the same at a local theater
and through the courtesy of Manager
Singelow the film will be shown at the
Star theater today and tomorrow, No
vember and 8. The film is not only
educational but will be an entertain
ment feature as the scenes run in
story form.
A young linotype operator in New
York learns on the eve of his wedding
that he is a victim of tuberculosis and
is told that he must not marry. His
family, his fiance and himself are in
the depths of dispair when it is de-
cided to send him to the Union Print
ers' Home in Colorado Springs for
treatment He crosses the continent
and enters the sanatorium. The beau
tiful scenic surroundings of this home
high in the Rockies are depicted, all
the details of the life in the home,
the appliances for treatment of tuber-
cular patients. The young operator
makes his fight for life and happiness
and wins. He returns home, we'll and
strong again. to be clasped in the arms
of his sweetheart and relatives. The
story is naturally told and is powerful
in IFS effect These Dioturac ara not
stereopticon views but are vivid mov-
ing pictures. Everett people generally
should see this film at the Star theater
today or tomorrow.

STRONG KICK
FROM FRISCO
To the Labor Press:

To the Labor Press:
Conference.-The controversy exist
ing between the two factions of the
Electrical Workers and the revocation
of the charters of central bodies by
the American Federation of Labor be-
cause said central bodies refused to
unseat that faction not affiliated with
the international, has caused a storm
of protest from the rank and file on
this coast.
The San Francisco Labor Council
vigorously protests against the revo-
cation of the Alameda Central Coun-
ellis Charter by the American Fedora
tion of Labor, and is unanimously on
record that steps shall be taken i'm
mediately to amend the law of the
American Federation of Labor so that
the central labor councils may no
longer be at the whim or caprice,
either of the international officers or
subordinate officers of the A. F. of L.
The law on the subject is discriminat-
ing to the extent that it does not work
uniformly; i. e., that as long as inter
national officers do not see fit to pro-
test the seats of delegates of an un-
affiliated local in a central body, then
such delegates are permitted to remain
undisturbed; but just the moment
some international officer wishes to
pick out a central body or when such
international officer takes the notion
that this or that central body should
unseat local, then just that momen is
the whole machinery of the A. F. of L.
started in motion to force a central
body to obey, and this is done in most
cases regardless of where that central
body may be located or what disrup-
ton such order to unseat may cause;
nor is the fact that such central body
may be extremely loyal to the A. F. of
L. taken into consideration. If central
bodies are the 'bulwarks of the Amer
lean labor movement" then great care
should be exercised that they are not
thrown suddenly into turmoil and fac
tional strife because of these orders
from the A. F. of L. to unseat, they
are entitled to just as much consid-
Grafton as are large internationals.
The delegates from the S. F. Labor
Council are instructed to protest the
revocation of the Alameda Labor
Councils charter on the floor of the
coming A. F. of L. convention and to
support any amendment that will
amend the law in accordance with the
above.
Respectfully and fraternally,
JOHN /. NOLAN,
Secy. San Francisco Labor Council.

PRESIDENT ELLIOTT OFFERS
PRIZE FOR BEST CORN.

President Elliott of the Northern Pa
cific railway has provided valuable
trophy cup as a prize for the best
bushel of Dent corn exhibited at the
Northwest Land Products show to be
held at Portland, November IS to 20,
1912. This prize is open to competi-
tors living not only on the Northern
Pacific railway, but also to those on
the Spokane, Portland and Seattle, the
Oregon Trunk, and the Oregon Electric
lines. The corn winning the cup is
to become the property of the North
ern Pacific railway to be used for ex-
hibit purposes.
Mr.. Elliott feels that the possibilities
of corn raising in the northwest have
not as yet been touched by the farm
ers. Great triumphs are in store for
those who will persistently and scien-
tifically engage in this work and assist
in extending the corn belt in the north
west, and it is to encourage proper
efforts in this line that Mr. Elliott has
offered this trophy for the prize VIM
ming exhibit at the Portland Northwest
Land Products show.
Here is an opportunity that ought
not be neglected to show that the
northwest is right in it when corn is
under discussion.
The world does not yet appreciate
the fact that corn, as well as wheat
and oats and potatoes, is staple and
dependable crop in the extreme north
west when properly cultivated and
handled. Let us open their eyes 10
this fact.

WET BY 700
MAJORITY

After two years trial of the no-li-
cense system, Everett returned to the
wet column by majority of us votes.
1t had been confidently expected by
the dry forces that the women's vote
would continue Everett in the dry col.
umn, but the result showed that the
women divided on the question in
about the same proportion as the men
did. While there was no brass band
nor blare of trumpets about the cam.
paign work of the "wets" it was none
the less effective. Probably no other
campaign in this city has witnessed
such a systematic preparation for
classifying the vote and getting the
voters out to the polls. Good Govern.
ment League workers were in evidence
everywhere and every available auto
mobile was pressed into service. Mr..
and Mrs Voter rode to the polls in
style last Tuesday.
From the hour the polls opened it
was known the vote would be heavy
and the count showed nearly eight
thousand voters had expressed their
choice on the wet and dry question.
Early returns showed the vets to be
leading and at 10 o'clock fourteen pre-
cincts complete showed a majority for
the vets of 799 votes. The returns
later from the Seventh and Fifth
wards cut that majority down to 715.
The final figures were a decisive vic
tory beating dry majority two years
ago three to one, The effect upon
business because of a surrounding
wet area and the conviction that the
consumption of liquor in Everett had
not been materially decreased, un-
doubtedly led to the overturning of
the dry victory of two years ago.
So far as known Everett was the
only dry town in this part of the state
to reverse it's vote. Bellingham went
dry again by over 400, Edmonds con-
tinued dry by 1O7 and Mt. Vernon
again voted dry. Numerous towns
that were wet voted to stay wet,
among which are Snohomish, Marys-
vile, Granite Falls, Gold Bar, Ana
cortes, Sedro- Woolley.
Returns from all over the state from
cities and towns in which local option
elections occurred pretty conclusively
proved that the women voted as inde-
pendtly as the men upon the subject
and divided upon nearly the same
ratio.
Everett will remain without saloons
until January 1, after which time it
will be possible to assuage ones thirst
over a real bar as in days of yore.
But one saloon to each one thousand
inhabitants will be permitted and the
proposed ordinance imposes strict reg
ulations as to hours of closing, selling
to minors, habitual drunkards, intoxi-
Gated persons, etc. Repeated violation
of law will be followed by a revocation
of the license and the offender barred
from again doing business in the city.
The commissioners have assured the
public that the ordinance will be en-
forced to the letter, no matter who it
hits nor whose toes are stepped on.
Proponents of the license system be-
lieve that the saloon business can be
regulated They will have their op-
portunity during the next two years
to demonstrate the assertion to the
public.
