EVERETT NEWSPAPER CIR
CULATION.

There are four newspapers in Ev-
erett. They vary greatly in the char
acter and the amount of circulation.
The MORNING TRIBUNE is a
small daily newspaper without any
definite editorial policy. Its Sunday
circulation (biggest day. is about
half that of the COMMONWEALTH.
The EVERETT DAILY HERALD
is a daily with a relatively large cir
culation obtained from various con-
tents in which sundry automobiles
and town lots were given away to in
duce people to take the paper. 1t
follows an editorial policy of sup.
pressing working class news as unde-
sirable. 1t tells deliberate falsehoods
about the socialist movement. In the
past few years the HERALD has
printed many fake items about fake
industries about to locate in Everett.
1t is utterly unreliable and is run in
the interests of select gang of real
estate boomers and money sharks.
The LABOR JOURNAL is the Off

at least is inclined to favor Socialism.
In the recent national campaign,
the Menace said J. Malon Barnes was
a Jesuit, which was later proven an
absolute lie, and the Menace said
nothing more about it. A lie had been
exposed but the Menace made no
apology.
Home Rule or Rome Rule is the
vital question before the workers"
says the Menace. Wait until the
workers own their homes, then there
viii be no need to decide which shaE
rule.
The Menace seeks to divide the
working class upon religion. The
socialist party does not fight the
Catholic church upon religious mat

when any other organization OF indi-
yidual attacks it,

bars no one on account of their re-
ligious ideas. All it asks is: "Wil
you aid your class in overthrowing
the class that exploits you?" That is
the question.
Socialists take a broader and more
liberal view of religion than many
others.
The workers are robbed, Catholics
and Protestants alike. They are
dubbed on strike regardless Of re-
ligion. They are forced to work under
unsanitary conditions regardless Of
religion. Their children are driven
to sweat shops regardless Of religion
But when the workers attempt to
overthrow this system OF wage slav-

which am can live decently then

THE REAL MENACE.
By Carl Ulonska.

BY Carl Ulonska.
As a last effort to stem the tide of
socialism, the capitalists are trying
to divide the workers on religion.
The Menace, an anti-Catholic pa
per published at Aurora, Mo, with
circulation of about 100000 copies
weekly, is bitterly assailing the
Catholic church and in an underhand-
ed way pretending to be a Socialist
paper
It is a grave fact that many socia-
lists are working body and soul for
the Menace, distributing it, and Civ

This is nothing short Of treason to

The COMMONWEALTH is the Of

TAFT SPENDS THE: DAY
AWAY FROM HIS OFFICE
Engagements for Church Serv-
ices and Other Affairs Take
-. Up His Time.

President Taft did not go to the eXecu-
church services and the wedding of Miss
Boutell this afternoon were sufficient to
keep him away from the White House.
Late this afternoon, if he does not go to
play golf, the President may work on
one of his messages to Congress. The
decision was reached a few days ago to
divide his communications to Congress
into several messages and this will be
done.
The first, upon foreign relations, has
been written and is ready. The second
and third will cover matters at home,
while the fourth probably will relate to
the advisability of adopting the budget
system in the financial affairs of the
government.
Dinner at Regular Hour.
The Thanksgiving day dinner of the
Tafts will be enjoyed at the regular din
ner hour s o'clock. President and Mrs.
Taft and Robert and Charles will be the
members of the family present Miss
Helen is in Panama. The big Rhode
Island turkey was in the White House
oven in good time this afternoon to be
ready for the dinner
The much -talked-about mince pie from
Miss Della Torrey, the Presidents aunt,
had not arrived today, but there will be
pies all the same, the White House cook
having seen that the necessary good
things were prepared.
