Chef BEATTY
PASSES AWAY

The death of Chef Beatty, which
occurred at his home in Olympia,
November 81, came as a profound
shock to his many friends and as
sociates, who saw in his exalted be
ing and in his profound intelligence
of economic matters the dawn of a
better era for the wage earners.
Death has a fearful sting when
it robs the living of champion.
There stretched out before him, and
before labor, vista of years dur
ing which his ripened intellect and
abilities promised the garnering of a
wonderful harvest of good. He had
so much to do. And such a desire
to do it. The grave now hides pure
and noble aspiration; those mental
convolutions which link earnest and
sweet souls to the gods; the striving
for that abundant and happy life
for every humble being which marks
the elect among men. But it does
not hide the memory OF him, his ear
nestness, his zeal and abiding faith
in his friends and in humanity in
general, nor the great place he
created for himself in the affections
of thousands of toilers. 1t can
never shield from the eyes of those
who knew him the true sweetness
and nobility of his soul, nor the
courage with which he faced SEEM
ingly insuperable obstacles.
Chef Beatty has passed. But he
left behind him heritage of hope
for his many friends and fellow
unionists, for his large effort and
his great aspirations will hearten
others to endure privations and the
sneers of the unthinking. May he
rest in peace.-Shingle Weaver.

TO BLOW UP THE
SPECTATORS

"The loss of each food ship is
tragedy But the idle acres of
America could grow more food per
year than all of the enemy's ships
can destroy Every idle acre helps
the enemy. Hinder rations and
you hinder victory. Cultivate
every available acre of land. Don't
let labor shortage hinder you"
What radical crank said all this
None at all. The above is part of
an advertisement for a blasting pow
der manufactured by E. I. du Pont
de NeMour & Co., of Wilmington.
Messrs. du Pont have put the
advertisement in farm papers
with the laudable purpose of urging
farmers to remove stumps and bould
ers and thus make their land more
productive. Their argument is so
sound and so much in the public
interest that they are entitled to the
free advertising this may give them.
However something must be said
in addition to the advertisements re-
marks. Boulders and stumps are
not the only obstacles to cultivation
of every available acre. There is
plenty of good land unused with no
boulders or stumps thereon to re-
move. 1t is held by spectators
who will neither use it themselves
nor let others do so. And there is
no powder manufactured by E. /.
DUPONT deNemours & Co.. which can
bulge them an inch.
There is a force however that
could do the work. A tax on land
values heavy enough to take the
profit out of speculation would bring
into use more idle acres than du
Points justly celebrated explosives.
Moreover, while blasting powder is
useful material to have on a
farm, but as long as the specula-
tor holds the land, no farmer can
apply it to any of the stumps and
boulders.
In the interest of bigger food
supply as we'll as better business
for the duPonts the land value taxa
ton idea should be pushed.-The
American Economic League.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING

Continued from Page One.)
Washington State Federation of
Labor, Tacoma, Wash. November
20, 1917.
Whereas, it is claimed by some
employers in the State of Washing
ton that a large number of Chi
nese laborers are needed in this
state to relieve the labor shortage;
and
Whereas, we believe this statement
is being used by these employers to
get an opportunity to use Chinese
labor to lower existing standards of
labor; and
Whereas, we know that the in
PRODUCTION of Chinese labor in this
State would result in a lowering of
the existing standards, which are
now none too high; and
Whereas, the existing shortage of
labor can be met by the establish
ing of fair working conditions in
the fruit districts, lumber mills and
logging camps, and by the intro
duction of the eight-hour day in all
industry; therefore, be it
Resolved, that the Executive Board
of the Washington State Federation
of Labor, in session in Tacoma,
Wash, November &c, 1917, most en-
phatically protest against any and
all proposed amendments to exist
ing immigration laws that will ad-
nit of any greater freedom of en-

Dor use all Of it's power to defeat

IN MEMORY OF
CHESTER A BEATTY

While death is the inevitable end
of all, there are times when its
visitation is marked with more than
ordinary feelings of sorrow and the
heart is more profoundly moved to
sympathy. Such occasion is now
with us; for the untimely death of
our Brother, Chester A. Beatty.
Stricken in the prime of manhood
it is a distinct loss to the Interna-
tional Single Weavers Union, of
which he has been an active member
for many years.
Brother Beatty measured up with
the expressive definition of Natures
Nobleman. Loyal to friends, stead
fast in principle, and kind and gen.
erous by nature, he lived a life that
reflected the virtues of true Union
man.
! Unassuming in manner, but up
right in character his career was
marked by the attributes of a noble
manhood and his name will long be
treasured by us with feelings of
friendship and affection.
| Wherefore as an appreciation of
his noble and generous character,
and as an evidence of our sorrow
over his departure, and as an ex-
preston of loyalty to his memory
and our recognition of his worth as
a Union man, we adopt this tribute
and lay it as a wreath upon his
bier:
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to the family of
our late brother, coupled with the
hope and prayer that as death is
the portal of life, it has only opened
for him home in the eternal man.

SpEER BOOSTS PROHIBITION
Denver's Mayor Tells Philadelphians
of the Great Benefits That Have
Come to Colorado Since Liquor
Traffic Was Banished

That increased prosperity has come
to Colorado since Prohibition went
into effect was the statement made in
Philadelphia the other day by Robert
w. Speer, Mayor of Denver, former
Pennsylvania.
Mayor Speer said that the liquor
traffic of Colorado, which, prior to
January l, 1916, represented invest
ments of $3,500,0OO, has been turned
into legitimate channels, with excel
lent results. He said that the dealers
were given ample time to get rid Of
their stocks and go into other pur-
suits, and that no hardships were i'm
posed on them.
The Mayor stated that importations
from outside sources, under various
legal exemptions, amount to but SIS 600
a day. This is supervised and the liq-
uors inspected and taxed. Revenues
amounting to $4,000 annually are thus
derived.
