REGISTRATION LAW
PROVING UNPOPULAR

A law requiring registration and
providing no convenient place and
no office hours when people could
register after having travelled miles
to do it, was a very thoughtful piece
of work on the part of the last legis-
lature to keep the farmers from in
itiating measures. II succeeded. And

100000 or $4,000, 100000 more needed
to clear up until the finish is reached
1t is not surprising that the editor
of the London Economist, Mr.. Hirst,
recently resigned his position, with
the remark that the great nations
were certain to go into irretrievable
bankruptcy with a month or two more
of the war. That month or two is
already past. The predicted bank
ruptcy should be here now: but, even
SO, it makes no apparent difference to
the continuation of the war. Every
thing goes on as before, except that
the expenditures continually increase.
1t is as if social evolution were max
ing sure of the death of the capitalist
system. Its upholders cannot stop
the drain, and there can be no doubt
that a debt of 800, ,O0O, 900 will
permanently paralyze the entire cap

critics who assure us from time to
time that this is 'the suicide of cap

N. W. PAINTERS
in CONFERENCE
Decorators of Washington Nee,
in Everett Monday and
Tuesday

The Northwest Painters Conference
held their semi-annual convention
September II and IL at the Labor
Temple in Everett.
Fifteen delegates were present, also
the general vice president of the
brotherhood Jos. F. Clarke
Business of importance was tran.
sacted. A resolution opposing the ac-
tions of the so-called citizens commit
tee in Everett was passed. The con-
ference also went on record to give
moral and financial help to the
Everett Painters Local if troubles in
future may arise.
Monday night, September II, the
Everett Local entertained the dele
gates at a supper, spread in the Labor
Temple by the ladies of the Label
League. Afterwards several able
speakers, including President E P.
Marsh of the State Federation of
Labor, who was a guest, gave interest
ing talks.
The delegates were full of praise
for the excellent table put up by the
Label League.
Delegates were present from Sc
attic, Tacoma, Bremerton, Aberdeen,
Olympia, Bellingham, Victoria, B, c.,
and Vancouver, B. c.

suffering for them. They look upon
themselves as men called to martyr
dom in the interest of the working
class and they act accordingly If the
authorities imagine they can club the
spirit of resistance out of those men,
they have another think coming.
The only sane method to have ap-
piled would have been to ignore them
as long as they were not abusive in
| their language and offered no violence
to life or property. People didn't
have to listen to them if they didn't
want to-the city is wide. But when
the authorities began jailing them,
| ordering them out of town, beating
them up, for no other reason than
they persisted in talking, they started
something. There are probably more
people in Everett in sympathy with
the |. w, w today than ever were be-
fore-people who hitherto paid no at
tention to them or their preaching
Not necessarily becase they have been
won over to the industrial theories of
this nomadic class of men, but be-
cause the sympathy of the average
man is with the under dog" the fell
low who is getting the worst if it in
an unequal fight.
The Journal has heard it stated that
the whole thing had a political sig
n hoe
there are certain interests hitherto
powerful in the city who hope to
show up" the city authorities as in
capable of handling the police prob
lens of the city for reasons which
will appear later, but which have to
do with municipal projects 1t has
been whispered even that certain can
didates for high office hoped to profit
by the disorder. The Journal chooses
to ignore these rumors as without
foundation in fact and to accredit the
whole disgraceful affair to stupid
laundering on the part of those who
should know better
The Journal wants to see industrial
peace re-established in this city. We
realize that the city cannot be pros
porous unless we have payrolls We
want to see the strikes in this city
settled on basis fair to both sides.
We are no more anxious TO see the
city given black eye than are the
business and professional element.
But we are convinced that a terribly
wrong method was employed in the
name of law and order" and that
permanent peace cannot come until
that policy is changed.
Call off your private army and turn
the policing of the city back to the
city authorities.

CAPITALISM Is
BLEEDING TO DEATH

Once again attention is directed to
the financial cost of the great war by
the announcement that the expendi-
ture of Great Britain now amounts to
$50, ,000, 900 daily, which is at the rate
of $1O,095, 100000 annually. The
chancellor of the exchequer, who
makes this announcement, adds that
even this may not be the maximum,
as no one can tell what the erpendi-
ture will be a month ahead.
No doubt he Is right. At the begin
ming of hostilities the expenditure was
announced at about $5,000,00O daily.
This speedily ran up to 100000.
100000, $15,0OO,OOO, $4,000, 900,
and at the end of last year was given
at $25,000,000. Now, that six months
of the present year is gone. 1t stands
at $30,000,000. And the end is evil

the greatest expenditures are yet to

And there are most probably two
years of hostilities yet ahead; GER
tainly not less than one year.
1t may be taken as an assured fact
that the war expenditures of all the
other belligerents have increased In
about the same rate. The end of this
month finishes two years of war, and
the expenditures have already beer

IDLE SHINGLE:
WEAVERS SCARCE

Many shingle mills in Michigan.
Wisconsin and Minnesota are still
closed because of a shortage of shingle
weavers. This Notwithstanding the
fact the owners are offering consider
able more than the union scale of
wages.
The scarcity of operatives there is
due to the fact that during the past
two years many shingle weavers have
entered other lines of employment and
do not care to return TO work in the
mills, where hard labor, loss of limbs.
occupational diseases and low COM
pensation are their only reward. That
this state Of affairs-a scarcity of
shingle weavers-will soon prevail In

THE REAL CAUSE OF STREET
DISTURBANCES In OUR CITY
BUSINESS MEN WHO HAVE BLINDLY ENLISTED TO FIGHT
THE FIGHT OF THE MILL MEN BLAMED

An intolerable situation exists il
this city, for which there is no ex
cuse. The beating up of men anc
boys by citizens clothed with TEN
porary authority and armed with
clubs, which is almost a nightly oc
currence, reflects but little credit on
those who ostesibly stand for law
and order" A condition of bad feel
ing and bitterness is engendered that
will hurt the city for many months to
come. Scenes such as have been
enacted on our streets are a disgrace
to civilized community.

world, it is the policy of going over
the heads of the city authorities and

The real disturbers of the peace are
not the l. w. WIS who, foolishly or
otherwise, persist in speaking on Wet
more avenue, but the business and
professional men of this city who
have allowed themselves to be
buncoed into private standing army
by manufacturing interests of this
city.
The immediate beginning of the
present trouble may be laid at the
door of mill owners, who turned their
motley crews of imported strike
breakers and professional thugs upon
the picket line maintained by the
striking shingle weavers. When uni
formed police stood by and idly wit
messed that outbreak, 1t was the nat
ural thing that reprisals would occur.
When, few nights later, MIR. Jami-
son led his army of trike-breakers in
column formation through the streets
of the city, he was provoking trouble
and if justice had been meted out
would have himself been placed under
arrest for melting to riot
Matters were bad enough when the
l. w. WIS appeared on the scene.
Their coming did not help matters
any, but it need not have made them

they had paid all bills and had a bal
ance of $134.40, which was turned over
to the Trades Council.
The Cigarmakers asked members to

The Painters had their Northwest
Conference and wished to extend a
vote of thanks to the Label League for
their help.
The Stage Hands reported they had
a picket out at the Riverside Theatre.
The Tailors reported a good meet

SIG to the Shingle Weavers.
The Plumbers donated $25 to the
Shingle Weavers.
The Molders donated $13 to the
Shingle Weavers.
Messrs. Strom, Sexton and Taylor

TEXT OF ADAMSON
BILL WHICH AVERTED
A BIG STRIKE

Washington, d. C.-The text of the
Adamson bill, which brotherhood
leaders said would avert the nation
wide railway strike if enacted, is as
| follows:
Section /. That beginning Decem-
Der 1, 1916, eight hours shall in con
tracts for labor and service be deemed
