Judge John E. Humphries of King
county, the same gentleman who
packed the Jail with Socialists during
the free-speech fight of last summer,
and was finally muzzled by the other
Judges of that county, has announced
himself as candidate for the state
supreme bench. That famous Let

cred when he was a candidate for o..
S. senator, will be dug out of cold stor-
age and again delivered to the prole-
tariat. The coming campaign will
have it's serious side but there are
few laughs in store for the people at
that. It will be mirth-provoking
spectacle to see the Judge proclaiming
himself the champion of the oppressed.
He admits that few "reds" will be
against him. After the votets are
counted he will imagine the majority
of the voters have turned red

RIGHT OF PEOPLE TO LEGIs.
LATE" DOMINANT ISSUE.

Circulators of the "Seven Sister" pc
titions have taken the field in this city
and are making a house-to-house can
vass for signers for these measures.
At this particular time there is just
one argument to be put forward to
the voters, i. e., do they believe in the
people having the opportunity to say
by their ballot whether or not these
measures shall become law. The prin-
ciple of direct legislation is the issue
at stake just now rather than the
merit or demerit of these bills. Here
tofore the individual voter has had
very little to say about legislation.
Measures We're introduced in the legis-
lature and became the subject of trad
ing rather than of individual merit.
Just last week a prominent member of
the last legislature frankly told me
that he voted against a measure in
which he believed because by so doing
he gained promise of support for a
bill of his own which he thought to be
of more prime Importance. The trad
ing system is wrong yet it was the
legislative way of doing business
Under the initiative and referendum
we carry the responsibility of legisla-
tion back to the individual and put it
suuarely up to him to decide what he
wants and what he does not want.
Every friend of the initiative and refer
endun will sign the initiative petitions
so that the people later may decide
whether they want the laws or do not
want them. That there is merit
enough in these bills to warrant their
Incoming issues in the election is
proven by the fact that they are and
have been subjects of debate and dis
cussion in the legislature, on the public
prints. The cost to the taxpayers OF
an initiative election is not good argu-
ment when one considers the financial
burden piled upon the people year
after wear by former legislatures. Nor
can legislation always be measured IN
dollars and cents. The effect Of vic
fous legislation upon the body polite
is felt in a score of ways not always
translatable into cold mathematics
If YOU believe in the people settling
these questions by direct vote, sign
these petitions.

SKINNER BY NAME AND SKIN
NER BY OCCUPATION.

Mayor Gill of Seattle is IN earnest
in an attempt to settle the teamsters'
strike in that city and has taken the
first step to bring the contending
parties into conference. The unionists
express willingness to leave their case
in the hands of an arbitration board
appointed by the mayor. So are the
team owners-with mental reserva-
tions. Mr. Skinner of the State EN-
ployers' Association, which public
spirited % body is directing the fight
against organized labor, declares the
employers are always willing to arbl'
trate any differences with their men,
but naively adds that there is moth
ing to arbitrate between the team
owners and the strikers, as the latter
quit work months ago and cannot pos
sibly have any interest in any nego
tiations." And yet they say all the
boneheads are sent back to the
bushes! Mr.. Skinner is aptly named
no man that we know of. more so!

WAR LoOsING ITS GLAMOR

How great the revulsion OF feeling
on the subject of war has become IN
the last few years, is well illustrated
in the wholesale refusal of British
army officers to take up arms against
the Ulstermen. The glory and CLAM
or of war has been largely rubbed OH

the country points out that as short
time ago as our war with Spain it was
easy to foment the war spirit. Young

sands for service in Cuba and the Phlt

prevented her from telling her story to
the congressional committee at Trini-
dad.
The coal operators have usurped the
functions of the United States post
office department by issuing money
orders on it's own blanks and keeping
the charges usually made by the gov
ernment, according to testimony that
was brought out at the Trinidad hear
ing, and admitted by the Colorado Fuel
and Iron company. 1t was the custom
to issue these orders in the notorious
company where United States post
offices are located.
The companies issued these orders
to the miners, who, ignorant Of postal
regulations, thought they were making
deposits with Uncle Sam.
The fiendish joke played by the
scab-herding militiamen upon Andrew
Colnar made deep impression on the
congressman and furnished one of the
many proofs that the militia were sent
to Southern Colorado to tyrannize the
strikers, kick and beat their wives and
children, imprison them by the score
and do everything to break the strike.
Colnar told how he was arrested for
the terrible crime of asking a scab to
join the United Mine Workers. He
was placed in the cellar of house that
ran rampant with vermin and held
there for two days. On the second
day he was taken outside by two mil
itiamen. A place the size of a grave
was marked off and he was told to dig
a hole six feet deep. While militia
men walked about making such re-
marks as "Shall we bury him in a
blanket" Did you hear what time he
is to be shot?" etc, Colnar was prod
ded with bayonets by others of these
hell-hounds of capital and urged to dig
faster Frantic at the thought of not
seeing his wife and five small children
again and fearful of their future, this
of the United States finally fell
into his own grave. He
was removed to the cellar cell and on
the following morning released with
out any further comment.

But there is way you can help to

sign the first aid petition as soon as

and if your ankle gets well enough you
can take a few hours off now and then
to circulate them. When a sufficient
number of signatures are secured the
