CALL FOR CONFERENCE

The President and Secretary-Treas-
urer of the Washington State Fedora
ton of Labor have issued a call for
a conference of the presidents of
unions affiliated with the State Fed
Grafton to meet at the Labor Temple,
Seattle, next Sunday, April %, at 10
a, m.
These union officials will discuss
labor's duty and the part it should
perform in the war crisis into which
our country has been plunged by the
warning nations of Europe.
Labor is opposed to war and has
done all it could to avert it, but now
that it has been thrust upon US it
is our patriotic duty to aid our coun-
try in its prosecution, always bearing
in mind that the wealth producers of
the country shall not be forced to
bear more than their part of its bur
dens and an unjust share of its cost.
The Labor Journal is confident that
the conference will make clear the
stand Of the workers in this unfort-
innate condition, not of their making,
and show disposition to bear its just
share Of the burdens.
The presidents of Everetts unions
are urged to attend the meeting, and
those who are unable to attend are
requested to select members of their
unions to represent them. Read the
call on the first page of this issue.

Whatever may be the legal equivoca-
ton, the crime of which | have ac-
tually been convicted is not that of
having thrown a bomb into a throng
of innocent people which included my
wife's brother-in-law to whom we are
both tenderly attached, but that of
having striven with what strength /
had for the alienation of the in
dustrial wrongs that labor has suf-
fered and the establishment of the
rights which naturally belong to la
Dor. | do not believe-I cannot be-
lieve-that because l have thus ad-
hered to the duty and exercised the
simple privilege of a human being,

The fury engendered by industrial
strife may defeat justice in a given
locality, but so deeply imbedded in
the hearts of the people is the de-
sire of justice that it must inevitably
find expression in a court of review
In that faith | am content.

THE !. w. w. TRIAL

On Monday the trial of Thomas
Tracy began its seventh week. AS
the trial progresses the hideousness
of the brutal and unlawful acts that
caused it are brought to light.
The testimony of the witnesses for
the defense seem to bear the impress
of truth, while the witnesses for the
prosecution have apparently done
their utmost to cloud the facts and
hide the truth. Some of these wit
nesses acted like they were trying to
swear themselves out of Jail. Many
of them have clearly shown that they
were either ashamed of the part they
took in the Beverly Park, the Everett
Dock and other events, or afraid the
public will find them out. The pub
lie will do the latter all right.
So far there has been no testimony
to show that any I.W.W. was drunk
nor that any one of them shot any
body while struggling in the water.
There are a thousand guesses to
one that this trial will end in an
acquital.

to annoy and spread disease. Get
ready now to get rid of the breed
ing places of flies. Buy swatter
and swat, swat, swat!
Kill at once every fly you can find
and burn his body.
Observers say that there are many
reasons to believe there will be more
flies this season than for number
of years.
The killing of just one fly NOW
means there will be billions and tril-
lions less next summer.
Clean up your own premises; see
and insist that your neighbors do
likewise.

Flies will not go where there is
nothing to eat, and their principal
diet is too filthy to mention.

The fly has no equal as a germ

million germs have been found in
and on the body of a single fly.
1t is definitely known that the fly
is the Carrier" of the germs of

that it is also the Carrier" of other
diseases, including possibly infantile
paralysis.
The very presence of fly is a
signal and notification that house

AGRICULTURAL
PREP AREDNESS

In this time of war preparation, at
tention on every side is being called
to the question of conservation of
food supply. In doing this, the franz
ers of the Northwest are urged to
keep in mind the food supply of the
future as we'll as for the, preser
year. Probably the greatest danger
to agriculture in time of war and
high prices is the temptation on the
part of the farmer to sell his breed
ing stock. Once the country is de-
pleted of breeding stock, years are
required to reestablish the livestock
industry on a normal basis. Heifers
and brood-sows should not be thrown
on the market even though prices are
exceedingly tempting.
Director Ira D. Cardiff, of the
Washington Experiment Station,
urges it as a patriotic duty of every
farmer of the state to conserve the
females of his herds for the mainten-
ance and stability of agricultural con-
ditions after the stress of war has
passed. If the farmers of Wash
ington will give attention to this mat
ter, it will go long way toward
maintaining the agricultural prosper
ity of the state in the days of de-
preston which are sure to follow a
war period.
FARMERS, DON'T SACRIFICE
YOUR BREEDING STOCK.
