"Number Nine" or Nothing.

The action Of the executive board
of the Washington State Federation
of Labor in ordering President Marsh
and President Flysik to decline ap-
pointment by the governor on the
commission to draft First Aid" bill,
reveals the intolerance, narrowness
and arrogance of the leaders of organ.

have their pet measure, known as Uni
tiative Measure No. 81, or nothing.
They care nothing for the expressed
will Of the majority as shown at
the elections last month, nor the evil
dent fact that the intelligent and
more conservative men in the ranks
found serious defects in the recent
bill and knew it was not framed to
do justice does not concern them.
They want to penalize industry. This
the public has frowned upon. Now.
when they have the opportunity to
urge and work for the next best
thing. with every assurance that some
of their views will prevail. they lie
down and pound their heads on the
floor.
The attack on Editor Clark, of the
Grays Harbor Post, by the Aberdeen
and Hoquiam Trades Councils doubt
less received its inspiration from the
same source. Mr.. Clark's paper had
the temerity to oppose some of the
initiative measures framed by these
self-constituted legislators. hence the
objection, which in all probability will
be used to discount in advance any
bill that may be reported by the COM
mission.
The Herald holds no brief for Edi-
tor Clark. he is usually able to take
care of himself, but this paper remem-
bers when unionism was struggling for

supporter as staunch as the editor

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Weil.known Local Druggist Says
Everybody Is Using OId-Time
Recipe Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men who value that even color.
that beautiful dark shade of hair
which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
5O-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell it has been
applied. Besides, it takes off dan
druff, stops scalp itching and falling
hair. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that. besides beau
tifully darkening the hair, after a
few applications. it also brings back
the gloss and lustre and gives it an
appearance of abundance. 90

not really play an important part in

A Car That Cannot Start While Its
Doors Are Open.
Now that almost every person beyond
infancy in America has learned that
one bell means 20 stop and two bells
to go ahead an ingenious device is
coming into use which threatens to
throw the two bells knowledge into the
scrapheap.
In the latest type Of center door troll
ley cars, which are rapidly coming into
wide service. no signal to go ahead is
needed. y passenger sitting in front
seat is mystitied as to how the motor
man knows when to start the car after
Il street corner stop. 1t is all due to
coupling up the doors with the current
that moves the car.
When passenger wishes to leave
the car the conductor cannot open the
doors SO long as the motor of the car
Is running. When the car stops and
the conductor opens the doors the mo-
torman turns the handle Of his con-
troller on one notch. but the fact that
the doors are open prevents any cur
rent from reaching the motor. AS soon
as the conductor closes the doors the
current becomes available for the mo-
tors and the car slowly starts.
The motorman can never start the
car while the doors are open; conse-
quently it is always safe for him to
try to start at any time without wait.

Of the year. That would permit five
months OF fighting. 1t is all a guess.
Other wars afford little precedent. for
never before has war been SO exten-
sive or engaged In on SO vast scale.
The Crimean war lasted nearly a
year and half But OF this time the
siege Of Sehastopol occupied eleven
months. and the result was not long in
doubt. The campaign Of France and
Piedmont against Italy lasted only
two months In 1850. The rrussian
war on Austria Is known as 1.-The seven
weeks war" The Franco. Prussian war
LASTED about ten months. but 1t was
virtually decided at the beginning Of
the siege Of Paris, which came only
two months after the declaration at
war. The Russo Turkish war lasted
nine months. the Boer war nearly
three years. although the most impor-
tant lighting was over In a year, and
the Japanese Russian war year and
half.

War Costs.

Those who predict ruined Europe
after the war must remember that this
depends partly upon whether or not the
present struggle settles the armament
question. Europe now spends over one
thousand million dollars per annum on
the war business. If part or all of this
can be saved it will go far in the work
of restoration. Furthermore. war IS a
tremendous inspirer Of energy. as
France proved after 1870 and as we
proved after the civil war. Science and
industry will go forward even faster
when freed of some of the burden Of
the military fanatics. Our civilization
is not to be erturned.-Collier's.
