MINORITY RULE.

The fact that our government
is now in the hands of a party
which polled only a minority Of
the votes at the last election pre-
sents a problem Of Importance.
This condition is not a new one,
but 1t is attracting a great deal
of attention all over the world.
The imposition of the will Of the
majority upon a whole people is
a doctrine in whose defense
much has been and much may
be said. But the imposition of
the will Of the minority upon
the whole people cannot be iusti-
fled in the same way. The So
luton which a great many wise
men r looking upon with favor
Is some scheme of proportional
representation which will give
every party as much representa-
ton in the Legislature as the
number Of its votes would en-
title Il to Such n scheme would
give every body of men Of reason
able numbers holding some def
mite political doctrine at least
some representation even though
they might not be numerous
enough to carry the elections in a
single district.-Nicholas Murray
Butler.

giving the city so much land as was
necessary to make the street wide

OF this incident was the receipt OF a
letter few days ago from Mr.. Hill in
which he stated the city would be
given an easement TO all the land nee
essary to make such improvement as
the council deemed necessary without
cost. The letter was read at the

Lack of Reliable War News

One OF the peculiar and altogether
new features OF war is the lack Of re-
liable news about the great European
war which broke out on the first OF this
month. An impenetrable cloud OF
secrecy hangs over the war zone, which
is practically all OF Europe. The num-
Der of killed at this time is variously
estimated at from twenty to thirty
thousand, and the wounded all the way
from fifty to one hundred thousand.
According to the latest advice an awful
battle is now in progress on the Bel
gian and French frontier facing Ger
many. 1t is scarcely likely that this
battle will decide the final result but it
may go long way in indicating the
outcome.
The Titanic struggle is comparable
to nothing in history either ancient or
modern. To try and foretell the final
result is waste of time. When one
reads the dispatches about the people
of this or that capital city facing the
result with calmness we are misled.
The people are not calm, they are
stunned, dazed with the calamity which
has befallen them. If calm at all it is
the calmness which sometimes follows
utter despair and loss Of hope. 1t will
be set down in history as the greatest
tragedy that was ever enacted on this
earth and the woeful thing about it is
that it could have been prevented.
1t will set civilization back five hun
bred years. II will leave wounds and
scars that will be long in healing. 1t
will leave a faint Of poison in the blood
that the seventh generation will not
efface. Do not think for a moment
that the United States will 60 I'M
scathed. 1t will benefit materially
but it will lose morally and officially.
The psychological effect will be far
reaching and long felt

Peaceful Settlement of a Troublesome

to 1900 square feet Of ground on
Front street which the city has long

the railroad company to buy the land,
but the price asked was over six hun

sion, free from the abuses to which it
has been pat by the overlords OF
special privilege, will guard the Amer
lean farmer and workingman in every
legitimate way against the underpaid
labor of Europe. and will give the
American producer the American mar
ket when he makes honest goods and
sells them at honest prices.
The progressive party believes that
the tariff commission should have plen-
airy power to ascertain whether or not
the labor employed in protected indus
tries is receiving fair and just pro-
portion Of the benefits OF that protec-
ton, and that no discrimination should
be made against the farmer.
Neither OF the old parties approves
of the progressive plan for tariff COM
mission. The progressive party intro
duced a bill in congress providing for
such a commission under date Of May
6, 1918. 1t was referred to the COM
mittee on ways and means, where it
will peacefully slumber until such time
as the people place the reins Of gov
eminent in the hands Of the progress
sive party.
Let every progressive put his Shout
der to the wheel in this campaign and
let the people know the position of
the progressive party on this important
issue.

Chelan county for thirteen years. He
served iour years as county auditor,
two years as mayor of Wenatchee, and
is at present a member of the city
council OF Wenatchee. From long
acquaintance and personal knowledge
OF his qualifications we can say no man
in Chelan county is better qualified to
serve the district in congress than Mr..
Gellatly. He keeps posted on mat
tiers in which the welfare Of the state
is involved, and has lived here long
enough to know what we need. He
has always taken a deep interest in
public roads, the reclamation OF arid
lands and taxation.
