Mrs. Harper, who spoke last, sum-
med up the long fight which the suf-
fragists have made ,or their cause.
Since 1869, she said. efforts have been
made to get congress to act, but no
gain has been made. She told him
she was one of a group Of women who
talked with President Roosevelt in
the same room in 1905, and that he
had taken no action.
Situation, Now Different.
Mrs. Harper pointed out to the pres
ident that the situation Is now differ
ent. Women have the vote in nine
states, she said. and the cause is rap
idly gaining ground. The time has
come when 1t is a question of national
Importance she declared, and when
the president and congress may we'll
afford to recognize it as SUCH.
She said that the suffrage question
is Of more importance than either the
tariff or the reform of currency and
banking laws, and that he could make
no mistake by taking it up in his mes
sage to the extra session of congress.
She then referred to his book and
told how his own arguments for de-
mcracy applied to votes for women.
After leaving the White House the
women expressed themselves as we'll
pleased by the interview. They said
that bills for the desired constitutional
amendment will be introduced in both

Representative Raker had made a
mistake In the hour Of the appoint
ment. and therefore the women arriv-
ed at the White House at 10 o'clock
instead OF II. He arrived in his auto
mobile but the women went on foot.
There was nothing militant looking
about the little group as they walked
up to the executive Offices and were
escorted to a secluded corner by Mr..
Raker. All were quietly attired.
Have Their Pictures Taken.
The women were not allowed to re-
main long in retirement, for a group
Of photographers discovered them and
escorted them to the front OF the eX-
ccutive Offices. where they posed for
pictures. They got past the police
men and secret service men without
even q glance.
Each Of the five had had her part
allotted to her. They were escorted
into Rreaident Wilson'S private Office
and after being introduced to him they
quickly took seats around him and
began their arguments.
Miss Paul. told the president tina:
they represented several million vot-
ers, and other women. and outlined
their desire for a mention Of their
cause in his message to the extra ses
sion of congress. She said that about
one-eighh OF the ELECTORAL college is
now chosen partly by women. that
one-Rfth Of the senate represents SUI
frage states, and that about one.ninth
Of the house represents suffrage
states. M. E..,
Mrs. Wiley. who is president Of the
Housekeepers' Alliance, spoke for
motherhood. She told the president
that women who arc mothers have
difficulty in shaping the lives Of their
children as they would wish because
they have no say in the making Of
laws. She said that woman suffrage
helps to make. for a better civiliza.

Mrs. Stone spoke for the women Of
the west. She said that the situation
Id Illinois shows the need of a Govt.
stitutional amendment for nationwide
suffrage" There is great difficulty in
amending the Illinois state constitt-
ton, she declared, and the situation in
other states is very similar. There

NORTH BEACH, Wash, Dec. 2l.-- An industry conducted solely on the rock.bound coast of Washington is hunting rare sea otter. Eleven men are engaged in this lonesome, tedious and sometimes long waiting occupa. ton. To facilitate fthe range of the eye the otter hunter is stationed at the top of thirty!foot derrick or tow CT erected on the rocks at a point where as much sea can be commanded as is possible. The tower is merely a tripod of poles, with ladder giv' ing access to a tiny house or protec- tion at the top.
 It is the business of the otter hunt CT to sit. armed with long ranged rifle, in this box as long as daylight lasts waiting and watching, for a sight of a sea otter. The habits of the otter are simple. It swims through the wa, ter. seizing fish from time to time. after which it climbs out upon a rock to eat it's meal. Then the hunter must take careful aim and attempt by long range shooting to get his quarry. So rare is the sea otter now that it is con sidered very good if from three to

six shots are fired during year.
 Once shot the hunter trusts to the action of the tide to cast the precious carcass out of the surf upon the beach. Shorty" Axtell, of this place is the luckiest man this year. He has skinned five sea otters since March 1. The hide of a sea otter is worth from $25O to $500, according to con, dition and size. The fur is highly prized by European royalty and is in demand in Japan. In this country few are wealthy enough to afford otter furs.
 The otters of the Washington coast are the survivors of an almost extinct species fsea life not very distantly related to the manatee or seacow of the Boring sea, whibecame almost extinct during the last century, but are still found occasionally in Sti Johns river, Florida.
 Otter. hunters have been known to watch for days, weeks and. months without seeing a single animal, Many otters keep far out. on the tiny specks of rock which are seen only at very low tide. These are hunted by Indians in canoes, but few are slain.

By Hon. Victor L. Berger First Socialist Elected to Congress

The international Tribunal at The Hague is hypocritical and conven tional humbug, The Czar of Russia after suggesting its establishment started the war with Japan.
 History teaches that only an armed people has ever remained free peo pie. This will undoubtedly hold good for the next thousand years to come even after we enter into that phase of civilization which is called Social ism.
 Especially under the present con dition I am in full accord with the ex ponents of German scientific Social ism when I advocate a universal ob ligatory military training and the arm ing of all citizens. War may be hell but there are few things worse than war-slavery, for instance.
 The international Socialist move ment is pledged to the universal military training of all citizens for the purpose of aggression.
 An yet the international labor move meint-of which the Socialist parties are the political expression-is the greatest power for international peace in existence today.
 At the last International Congress at Copenhagen a resolution was in troduced by some British and French delegates to determine whether the stoppage of work by the workers in

WILL PREVENT WAR
 SAYS HON. VICTOR |. BERGER

orv two countries between whom war ia threatened, could prevent the break ing out of such war" This resolu- tion was referred to the International Rureau in Brussels and will be dis cussed and probably adopted by the international Socialist and Trades Union Congress to be held in Vienna in 1914
 A mere glance at this resolution will prove that the working class of Eu- rope is in a very excellent position to prevent a war A general strike de- clared simultaneously in both coun- tries on the day that war is declared would simply make war impossible.
 Supposing war is declared between France and Germany. Now let all the organized railroad men, telegraph operators, blacksmiths, machinists, bakers, miners and sailors go out on a strike in both countries at the same time. Not train would move. not a ship would sail in either country, and there simply would be no war.
 And, by the way, the prevention Of war would be one of the two emer' gencies for which would advocate a general strike" the other would be for the defense of the voting fran chise.
 In short, I can readily foretell that wars between the highly civilized na- tions of Europe will soon be thing of the past. But of course the ytrib' unal at The Hague will do nothing and can do nothing-the enlightened proletariat will accomplish this.

Washington.-A demonstration more
impressive than the inaugural day
ceremonies in honor of President-elect
Woodrow Wilson-that's the ambiti-
Gus plan of the women in charge of
the arrangements for the great equal
suffrage pageant in this city March g..
When the proposal of a suffrage
parade was advanced a little more
than a month ago the women leaders
said they hoped to have 5000 march
ers in line. This was only a hope:
they were fearful that the inaugural
parade on the day following would al
tract so much public attention that
their own little demonstration would
be lost sight OF.
Vain fears. For since the very day
1t was estab- ished the suffrage head
quarters here have been beseiged by
society women of all the eastern cities.

men and government officials and by

raj parade might be Outshone. The

day with a message for Miss Column

Miss Miller is now considering the ad-
visibility of attempting TO carry out
