WAKE UP!

DO YOU KNOW the Panama canal
will be open to traffic in 1915?
DO YOU KNOW the coming South
eastern European immigration expect
ed on the Pacific coast after the canal
opens is 100000 in the first five
years?
DO YOU KNOW one steamship
company alone has sold $4,000 steer
age tickets from Europe via the Pana-
ma canal to Portland and Seattle, and
no one knows how many to California?
DO YOU KNOW this influx of inn
migration will glut the labor market
of the coast states, disorganize the
workers, drive those here farther in
land, and generally demoralize labor
conditions as established by union
labor?
DO YOU KNOW that land sharks,
steamship companies and commercial
interests are spreading advertising all
over Europe that the Pacific coast is
a land flowing with milk and honey,
with gold nuggets lying in the creeks
visible to the naked eye, and labor
so scarce that employers are begging
for men to go to work?
DO YOU KNOW that commercial,
educational and some semi-religious
interests have been conducting
series of PRONUNCIATION conventions
on this coast for three years, boost
ing for European immigration?
DO YOU KNOW that not only are
Washington, Oregon and California
endangered from labor's standpoint,
but also the Rocky Mountain states,
for when the labor of the coast is
crowded out of work by the immi-
grant, he in turn will go inland to
crowd others out of work?-The Tim

are barred.
All that is required is that you ac-
cept the economic theory of Carl
Marx, and have a determination to
inaugurate the cooperative common
wealth" by whatever means may be-
come necessary. Above all it is re-
quired that you have BACKBONE and
a willingness to be guided by major
itv rule. That is, of course, majority
rule within the organization.
Surely, such a league" has for
long time been necessary and now,
since the working class has really be-
gun to wake up, it appears an assured
fact.
True, there are sceptics, there are
those who profess to believe that all
of those different organizations can
never possibly come together on any
ground; there are those who say that
the working class will never organize
any act as a unit
There are those who say "You can
never make it work." which reminds
me of the old backswoodman who
never saw a locomotive until late in
life. It was explained to him that the
locomotive would run of its own
power, and haul loaded cars. After
careful inspection he replied: yes
it's a mighty fine looking contraption'
but you will never get it started.
After the engine had started, and had
almost disappeared up the track he
said: Eyes, they made it go, all right
but they will never stop it," And let
us hope we never will-not until 1t
lands us in the cooperative common
wealth any way.

EVEN THE PROFESSIONAL
OPTIMIsTS SCENT DANGER
IN BIG IMMIGRATION.
LARGE immigration Predicted.

Large Immigration Predicted
The Norwegian vice consul at Los
Angeles ventures the prediction that.
within two years after the opening of
the Panama canal. more than 100000
Europeans will immigrate hither and
settle in the Pacific coast states. The
data upon which he bases this con
clusion are those of the tickets which
are already sold in parts of Germany
to those who expect to settle here
when the Panama canal affords a
cheap and easy means of transporta-
ton to the states bordering on the
Pacific. According to advices which
he claims to have received, already
10000 tickets have been purchased in
Berlin alone and 80 per cent of the
purchasers are German farmers, who
viii come prepared to purchase land
and take up intensive farming.
The estimate seems exaggerated.
For some reasons it is to be hoped
IlldJ II IS eAdBBtIdltds lHb pa coCh1
population of the three states border
ing on the Pacific, even allowing for
substantial increases since the census
was taken, falls short of 100000 peo-
pie. There is an abundance of room
and full opportunity here for popu-
lation many times that large. But
there is not the present opportunity
to take care of the addition of two
fifths as many as those now here
within the short space Of two years
time. This state could readily find
room and profitable employment for
another million of people in time, but
not if they were dumped in here all
at once.
But whether the present estimates
are extravagant or not, it is certain
that with the opening of the Panama
canal the Pacific coast states are to
witness one of the most extraordinary
immigrations that the world has ever
seen, and that the growth and the de-
velopment which they will have sud
denly will be the most remarkable
phenomena of the present century,

Well, let him. say so if he chooses /;
let him even THINK so if he is weak
minded enough; in any case it will
not hurt us a particle; it will not re-
tard the march of the revolution one
moment.
The revolution is coming, it must
come, and it has donned its seven
league boots and is on the way. Or,
to be more modern, let us say that
the revolution has thrown the lever
over to the high gear and has turned
on the benzine full flow. Nothing can
stop the revolution, nothing can even
hamper it to any great extent.
Let foolish people in the garb of
judges gnash tpeir foolish teeth in a
frenzy of rage, set editorial prostitutes
of the lowest type vomit forth thier
editorial slime until the stencil of it
turns the stomach of the most aban-
doned, it is all in vain, nothing will
suffice, nothing will hamper, the revo-
luton comes on apace.
Or perhaps, what if it were even
fastened by such action on the part
of the mouthpieces of capitalism?

WAGES IN CANADA.

The Canada census report for 1911
shows that in the previous year ALL
1875 men, women and children were
employed and paid $197, 228,701 in
wages. That makes an average year.
ly wage of $41S.63. This probably av'
erages about the same as wages paid
in the United States. On this munifi-
cent salary, the working man is ex-
peoted to marry, take care of home

NEW YORK, May 15.-Taking up
the thought expressed by Ambassa,
dor Da Cana Of Brazil, tonight, at
the dinner of the Pan-American So
ciety of the United States, that it is
'only those who understand each 9TH
er who are led into investigation by
sympathetic interest,"" Secretary Bry-
an advanced the idea of actual and
continuous contact with the people
of the South and Central American
republics as the best means of streng-
thening our relations with these coun.
tries. The suggestion by Da Cana
that travel and investigation of the
countries to the south would draw
them nearer the United States in
bonds of commerce and friendship,
prompted Bryan to express the opn-
ion that the canal zone SHOULD be
made a meeting place for those who
would acquaint themselves with the
people and way of other American
nations" Bryan, with the ambassa-
doris, or ministers, of every Central
and South American nation accredit-
ed by this country, were guests of
honor at the dinner.

Slayer Of BOY

WASHINGTON, May l5.-Sentcnc-
ed to be executed in the district Jail
tomorrow for one Of the cruelest MUIR
ders in the criminal annals Of Wash
ington, Tony Milano's only hope Of cs-
Gaping the sollows lies in :he remote
possibility that President Wilson may
grant an eleventh-hOur stay. MilanO,
an Italian shoemaker with a little
shop at 4th and II streets, was con-
victed of having killed twclve-year-old
Harry Smith with the blows of ham,
mer the night of September 8, 1911.
1t was alleged that the boy went to
the shoe shop to get hcange and that
Mlano, who had been annoyed by
other boys. thought the boys stammer-
ing was a method of making fun of
him. Early on the morning following
the alleged murder Milano set fire to
his shop, it was contended for the pur-
pose Of destroying the evidence of his
crime. A sister of his victim, driven
frantic by til edeath CS her brother,
later took her life.

WASHlNNGTON, May l1.--Further
representations from the Japanese
government in support OF its protest
against California land lcgslatoin
were forecast when Viscount Chinda,
after being informally notified of Gov
crnor .Johnson's inten lion to sign the
land bill, called twice at the state de-
partment to inquire when the govern
or will probably act.
After the Ambassador first visit,
Acting Secretary Moore went to the
White House and spent half an hour
discussing the situation with Presi-
dent Wilson. 1t is understood. how
ever, Moore was able to throw but
little light upon Johnsons intentions
when he saw the ambassador later
The viscount's calls gave rise to the
impression in official circles that Ja.
pan is not inclined to delay pushing
her protest and tina! another formal
communication probably will be forth
coming as soon as the California bill
is actually signed. Meanwhile the
president has been discussing with
Acting Secretary Moore the course to
be pursued in framing reply to the
original protest. -
This subject will come before the
! cabinet meeting tomorrow, but the
answer will not be immediate unless
the Japanese government insists. On

as much delberation as the diplomatic
agents will permit.
