the following reference to American
and European systems:
Little progress in scientific stand
ardization of safety and sanitation has
been made in Europe and labor laws
in many instances fail to give exact
standards for the guidance of inspec-
tors and for the use of manufacturers

T. Washington in a speech to negroes
in this city.
Negroes from all sections of the
country, who are attending religious
convention, were urged to adopt a
constructive policy and get away from
the defensive, the negative, the more
critical side of life" He urgeds them
to make the homes they live in at
tractive and to lay emphasis on the
members of the negro race who own
land and are successful, rather than

MARSH AND COATES TALK
TO BIG CROWDS ON
INITIATIVE MEASURES

w. J. Coates of Spokane, second
vice president of the Washington
State Federation of Labor, and e. p.
Marsh, president of the same organi-
zation, addressed an audience of two
thousand people in the Coliseum Mon
day night upon the initiative measures
to be voted upon next Tuesday Mr..
Coates, the first speaker, reviewed the
struggles of organized labor through
out the nation to remedy unjust indus
trial and social conditions and told
of the active participation in those
struggles of the craftsmen engaged in
the liquor trades. Declaring that the
moral or ethical side of the prohibi-
ton question did not enter into the
stand taken by the federation, he made
a strong and eloquent plea for the
men whose lives had been spent as
workmen in that industry, who would
be dumped on the labor market and
no trade open to them should the al
legged prohibition measure carry. He
asserted that the bill meant removal
of the means of livelihood for thou
sands of union men while liquor could
and would be freely obtained as be-
fore.
President Marsh reviewed the his
tory of labor legislation at the state
capitol, dwelling on the difficulty of
obtaining adequate protection from a
Legislature dominated by special in
terests, He made plea for the en-
actment Of the bills known as the Five
Sisters and the Eight Hour bill.
Both speakers were attentively list
ened to. NJ. T. Altman, secretary of
the Everett Trades Council, presided,
and an orchestra kept the big crowd
entertained while waiting for the
meeting to commence.

HARTLEY AND HOGAN
WON'T DO

If there was ever a time in the his
tory of Washington when voters
should consider carefully the qualifi-
cations of the men or women running
for the legislature, it is at the coming
election. Upon the personnel of the
next legislature depends much. In
theory we have direct legislation in
this state. Tired and disguised at the
logrolling. porkbarrel methods of leg
islation that have marked our legisla-
tive body since statehood, the voters
by an overwhelming majority wrote
the principle of direct legislation into
the organic law. A standpat legisla-
ture grudgingly gave us the machinery
of operation for that principle. 1t was
made as unwieldy and difficult as pos
sible The standpat forces that have
in years past controlled the legisla-
ture never trusted the people and
were always jealous of any attempt on
the part of the people to take 10
themselves law-making powers. Should
the standpat element dominate the
next legislature, the machinery of di-
rect legislature, already weak, will be
still further weakened. One dominant
political party had the nerve to de-
clare in it's party platform for an
amendment to our direct primary law
which would compel the voter to reg
lister his party affiliation before be-
coming eligible to participate in a
primary election. Under the thin pre-
text of preserving party lines, they
would take away from the voter an
inalienable right. 1t is no business of
anybody what a voters partisan
politics may be prior to an election.
If direct legislation is to be the sub
stance and not the shadow, the voters
must have the right to amend the
state constitution through the initia-
tive. Constitutions in theory are writ
ten to suit the needs of the whole peo-
pie. If changing conditions demand a
change in the organic law of the state,
cold reason demands that the people
as a whole should have right to
change that constitution, independent
Of the legislature. The man or candi-
date that denies to the people that
right is not worthy the trust or con-
fdence of the electorate,
The republican candidates from this
district do not want the people to have
that right. They are men of the old
school who do not recognize the right
of the people to assume directly law
making powers. They are representa-.
tive Of that school of political thought
that recognizes property rights to be
paramount over human rights. Let
him take who may and keep who can
is their motto
Regardless of their business train
ing or their high standing in the com
munity, it is inconceivable that the
voters of the 48th legislative district
will vote for men of that type next
Tuesday. The Labor Journal holds nc
grief for any political candidates. But
We do urge every voter who believes
in the right of the people to legis
late who believes in the people, tC

been slipped over to secure to this or
that special interest some special ad-
vantage in the accumulation of wealth.
There is Unborn in the Anglo-SaXon
race a respect for law and constituted
authority. This inherent respect, the
homogeneous character of our popula-
ton, the division of voters into many
political subdivisions, all have contri-
buted to make it easy for corpora
tons to control legislatures, shape
federal legislation. We have many
great minds in our national congress,
men who were patriotic. We have
many more who were but the repre-
sentatives of this or that special in
terest. Did some corporation con-
template a raid upon the public do
main, it elected it's man to congress
to help pull it off Did you read the
roster of the United States senate in
years past you could have imagined
yourself sitting in while the roll of
directors of our great corporations
was being read.
The people are awakening to the
necessity of electing men to congress
who are in sympathy with the ideals
and aspirations of the working people
of the country, men who are of them,
who understand their problems be-
cause they have lived them There is
a revolution, bloodless but none the
less pregnant with meaning, in the
public thought of this country. Prop
erty rights which have been so long
paramount in the public mind, are be-
coming, as they should be, secondary
to the rights of human flesh and
blood, the rights of every citizen to
the republic to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness" made possible
through just social and industrial con-
ditiOns. A great constructive program
is under way in this country which
will require federal legislation to give
it effect. Unemployment, that cancer
eating at the heart of industrial life,
is receiving the earnest study of
thinkers and bills aimed at that evil
have been introduced in congress.
John E. Campbell knows as do but
few political candidates now before
the people the problems of labor, the
struggles, dreams, aspirations, ideals
of the working class. He is as un-
compromising in his principles as the
sturdy Scots from whim he sprung.
Three terms in the state legislature
he has stood like a rock for legisla-
ton to protect the health, lives and
limbs of the working people, make
/ pleasanter their lot in life. And with
all his convictions he brought home
the bacon" to the people, as a glance
over his list of legislative achieve
ments will amply testify. If Johnnie
| Campbell is sent to congress, as he
! Is going to be, we may be sure that
he will be found working and voting
in the interest of every measure pro-
posed of benefit to the whole people
of his district, state and nation.

Put Five-Year Limit on
Terms of School Doctors

On recommendation of Health OFFICER
W. c. Woodward, the Commissioners
today decided on the adoption of an or
der limiting to five years the terms of
medical inspectors of the public schools.
including dental inspectors. but provid-
ing that no inspector now in the service
shall be dropped on account of duration
of service alone prior to August 81, 1915.
In letter to the board DR.. Woodward
says he was led to make this recon-
mendation by a definite feeling that the
average medical inspector of schools
loses much of his usefulness after five
years service Whatever he has gain
ed in experience in the practice of me
dicine and in the discharge of his off,

very apt to be more than offset, If he

is not true can be cared for under the
right reserved by the Commissioners to
make reappointments. when specially

Pellagra Prevalent in
District, Says Woodward

The Health Department. in its weekly
bulletin issued today directs attention
to the presence of pellagra in the Dis
trict. the disease being more prevalent,
It Is stated. than ever before. The first
local case of pe'iagra was reported in
May, 1872 Last year ten cases wers
reported. The number OF cases report
ed since the beginning of this year is
twelve
'Of the twelve cases reported this
year. nine were of local origin says the
report. Five patients were white and
seven colored, showing a marked ex-
cess of colored cases, since there are
only one-half as many colored persons
in the District as there are whites. The
ages of the patients varied from twenty
three to>sixty-seven years. All cases
proved fatal
"Pellagra is usually chronic disease,
extending over a year or more. but
sometimes 1t runs an acute course.
Nervous and mental disorders are usual
and distressing features OF the disease.
No treatment by hygiene or drugs can
be relied on to cure, although some
patients recover. The treatment gen.
orally adopted Is that of rest and whole
some living under such conditions as
are best calculated to build up the
bodily strength.
The cause and mode Of spread of
peIlagra Is unknown. BY some the dis
ease has been attributed to eating I'M
sound or diseased corn, but the trend
of opinion is now against this hypo-
thesis. Pending developments the wise
course Is to preserve an open mind and
for prevention rely on the ordinary prin-
ciples Of wholesome living.
