NOW WORDS COME
TO PICTURE IDEAS
PhilOlOgists Can Read History From
Words Country Uses

Sometimes words are borrowed bod
lily from another language. Sometimes
a roOt-word is borrowed, oftenest from
the Latin or Greek, and an English
ending given it. Again, we take two
old words, join them together and
make a new one. At first we sepa-
rate them by the hyphen, but after a
while that is left out, and the two
are mingled as single word Then,
we take prefix, or suffix, from some
other tongue, and add it, after or be-
fore, and we have another new word.
Or when word is too long, we short
en- it-because we English-speaking
people are great for saving time.
Words Reveal History
A philologist can read history from
word; as to when it first came into
use, what caused it, the condition of
the arts and sciences at the time, the
state of literature, the wars going on,
and many other things that he sees
in it. A word orbs the civilization Of
it's time, as a dewdrop mirrors the
heavens. Every maker of words is a
poet whether he knows it or not The
word poet comes from a Greek verb
ito make" Poets generally
make words that seek to convey the |
idea by the sound.

companies, regarding the division OF
toll revenues between these com
panies aud the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph Company, and that similar
disputes exist between other tele-
phone companies having mutual re
lations, and in view of the further
fact that schedules of rates now exist
between the so-called farmre COM
panies and the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph Company, there being a
sliding scale ranging from SO to SIS,
arranged in ten steps, depending upon
the number of stations connected,
which must result in schedules fre-
quently changing, which schedules
have for some time been in allegiance
and need investigation.
Now, therefore, conference will be
held in Olympia at II a. m. on the

This commission will be pleased at
such conference to hear all such per-
sons personally, or by counsel, com

telephone companies operating in this
state relative TO tolls, exchange and

WORKERS DOCKED
FOR DODGING CARS

Track laborers employed by the
East ST. Louis & Suburban Railway
must either pay for lodging street
cars or dispute the right of way of
these conveyances.
The workday of the employees is 10
hours, at 20 cents an hour When
they opened their last pay envelopes
each man found pay for nine hours a
day They registered strong objection
to what they believed was an over
sight, but company officials produced
an educated lead pencil to show that
each man lost time aggregatiug one
hour a day stepping out of the
trenches every time a car passed.
Ten hours time minus one hour
consumed in keeping from getting
killed, leaves nine hours Nine hours
work. nine hours pay.

mates and the company is trying to

Several members who recently visited
Seattle reported unionism booming in
that city.
The Label League reported an in
teresting meeting.
There is a movement on foot to
unite the government and city EN-
ployment offices under one roof, to
the end that their cooperation may
bring about better results, and the
Council passed a motion favoring the
union of the two offices. The secre-
tary was instructed to write to the
city commissioners favoring an ar
rangement whereby the two may here
after act in conjunction.
After general discussion of topics
of interest to the unions the Council
adjourned.

SUNDAYS MASS MEETING

The meeting at Liberty hall last
Sunday was not all that could be
wished for a number of reasons.
The hall was cold and the audience
shivered. The meeting was not suf-
ficiently nor properly advertised. The
expected delegation from Seattle
failed to come. People were too busy
with their Christmas preparations.
However, there was pretty fair
crowd, which was held to the close
notwithstanding the untoward con
ditions.
Robert II. Mills called the meeting
to order and introduced Jake Michel
as the first speaker. Mr.. Michel en-
tered a vigorous protest against exist
ing conditions in Everett and con
demned the causes leading to and
those responsible for the tragedy of
November 5.
Charles Ashley of Seattle addressed
the meeting, pointing out the lessons
taught by the attempts to throttle
free speech. He spoke bitterly of the
efforts of the daily press to prejudice
the public mind against the "a l. w.
w. prisoners awaiting trial on a
charge of murder. He said the l. w.
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1916-12-29

w. song was nothing but an ironical
arraignment of the fratricidal war in
Europe. He predicted the coming OF
time when cooperation Of workers
in all industries would be the rule-a
time when the master class would
have to go to work.
George W. Louttit spoke next, say.
ing that the members of the Manu-
facturers Association did not scab on
one another as do the workers, but
stood firm. He said the recent
troubles could have been averted if
we had officers who had any sense
He charged that the men who pre-
vented the |. w. w. from landing on
the dock We're viOlators of law. He
said the ordinance which prescribed
public speaking on crowded street in
tersections was right in the interest
of safety.
James Duncan, secretary of the
Seattle Central Labor Council, spoke
briefly and promised material aid to
Everett unions from Seattle's twenty
thousand organized workers.
EX-Commissioner Salter sounded a
warning note concerning the conduct
of the schools Children are taught
things which should be kept from the
young. In some places antagonism to
the cause of labor is implanted in the
minds of the little ones.
The meeting then adjourned.
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1916-12-29

tiye-elect Frank Spencer, who re-
sponded to an invitation TO address
the Trades Council.
Mr.. Spencer thanked labor through
the Council for the support given him
at the election in November. He said
he was opposed to compulsory mill
tary training in the high schools for
several reasons, among which were
that the students in high schools were
TOO young; that such training would
necessarily entail expense upon the
taxpayers which they could not afford
at this time, as the bill providing for
such training carried the employment
of a competent instructor, whose sal
airy would necessarily be high; that
the school fund was not now adequate
for the growing needs of the schools.
Mr.. Spencer opposed proposed
amendments to the Industrial In
cripple it or take away from its
beneficiaries the right to employ
doctors of their own choice. He
thinks the state should set the fee of
doctors and guarantee it. He opposes
any house rule which requires more
than a majority to take a bill out of
committee, and severely condemned
caucus rule. Mr. Spencer said that he
had not made an active personal can
vas for the votes of the people, as he
thought the obligation of selecting
good officials rested more upon the
voters than the candidates.
Representative Spencer is a grad
uate of Everett High School and has
lived in Snohomish County all his life.
He promised to do his best to give a
good account of his stewardship as a
member of the legislature.
The convention committee reported
progress and several other committees
were given a weeks further time.
