among the rose gardens and orange groves around the town of "Fairlands (popularly supposed to be Redl&nds) and in the majestic mountains of Riv- erside and San Bernardo counties. Every effort was expended to make The Eyes of the World" as notable for beauty as for dramatic values. Of the latter there is an abundance, as readers of the book will recall. There is the escape of the convict and his pathetic wanderings; the flight of the girl. Sybil; the kidnapping of this girl by Rutlidge. who takes her to his mountain cabin; the search of the for est rangers for Sybil and the hand to hand fight of the rival lovers on the mountain cliff. which results in the tragic fate of Rutlidge.

THE LABOR DAY
CELEBRATION

Everett indulged in modest cele-
braton of Labor Day this year. Eff
forts were made to secure a large
steamer for an excursion to Van
couver, but no boat large enough
was available and that scheme was
reluctantly abandoned. Then an eX-
cursion to Victoria was suggested
and dropped for the same reason.
Finally picnic at Silver Lake was
arranged and carried out success
fully.
There was a large good-natured
crowd at the lake carried there by
interurban cars and automobiles.
The weather was propitious and ev-
erybody enjoyed himself and herself
to the full.
The entertainment consisted of
dancing and program Of sports,
shore and aquatic.
Following is list of sports and

now known Mr.. R. C. Coffy will re-
main its local manager.

LAFAYETTE'S
ANNIVERSARY

Yesterday in many cities of the
United States was celebrated the
anniversary of the Marquis de La
fayette who, in the struggle for in
dpendence, brought at his own ex-
pense and in his own ship soldiers
and supplies to aid the American
revolution. The United States gov
ernment is now returning the COM
liment by sending soldiers, money
and food to aid France in her strug-
gle to retain freedom.
While honoring Lafayette, the
Frenchman, we have not forgotten
Barons Dekalb and Won Stenuben who
likewise aided in securing American
independence.

companies on June 26 and the strike
was called on June 81 when the
companies refused to consider the
demands. Briefly the demands were

Phelps Dodge Corporation.

LA TOILETTE

(By Mark Sullivan IN Colller's)
Senator La Toilette is what folks
often call "a trying person." Last
March and April he put himself in
the forefront of public attention by
a stubborn and spectacular effort to
prevent our entrance into the war
a performance which flooded the
press with eXecrations Of him. There
upon he retired from public view,
passing four months with only infre-
quent participation in the debates.
Now he energies, and it turns out
that he has been busy framing a
tax measure which takes no account
of the bills prepared by the commit
tees; piece of pioneering work
which commands the respect even of
persons who, politically, do not like
him. Senator Lodge of Massachu-
setts said of it:
"The senator from Wisconsin (Mr
La Follette) has bill on a different
system from ours-a coherent system,
but different theory. l do not
agree with the theory, but there is
no doubt that it is a coherent and
intelligent system of raising rev.
enue u"
1t would be difficult to exaggerate
the amount of devoted application,
of midnight oil, involved in this self
imposed task. On the part of Sen
ator La Toilette, it is characteristic.
His career has been divided between
performances which can only be de-
scribed as capricious obstinacy, and
the successful performance of unique
tasks, the solving of new problems
born of changed economic conditions,
which could only be done through
high intelligence, intense application,
and real courage. Taking his more
than thirty years of participation
in public affairs as whole, the
balance is on the credit side.
Senator La Follette's tax bill drops
all that long and complex business of
imports on coffee, tea, and other sub
jects of general consumtion which
formed the bulk of the bill originally
written by the Ways and Means Com
mittee; he ignores that committees
arbitrary and unintelligent dip into
an increased tariff of 10 per cent on
imports. He makes no change in
existing taxes except to increase those
on incomes and liquor. He faces the
business of paying for war as
new problem. He proposes to pay
it, logically, chiefly out of the ex-
cess profits made by those who make
and sell war supplies. 1t may we'll
turn out that no man in Congress
will have made so useful a contribu-
tion to the conduct of the war as
the one who most stubbornly re-
sisted our entering it. Probably the
ultimate form of the Revenue Bill
will be some variation of Senator La
Follelte's idea. In any event, the
Ways and Means Committee is now
utterly discredited

of the Phelps-Dodge Corporation,
ruled by the subsidiary, the Copper

that some were guilty of the "crime"

THE STAND OF ORGANIZED LABOR
NRELATION TO THE WORLD WAR
Here the Statement of Principles and Purposes Adopted
the American Alliance for Labor and Democracy.

Peace will not be secured to
the world through the subjection
of the free and democratic ma
tions.
We shall be as loyal to the struggle
for freedom and democracy at home
as to the struggle for freedom and
democracy in international relations.
We harbor no delusions. We know
that, even in this great democratic
nation, war inevitably brings it's
abuses. Efforts to lower the stan
dards of employment may be made.
Attempts may be made to invade our
democratic rights. Against these
evils we shall strive vigorously and
successfully as we contend against
the menace of German depotism.
Moreover, as the exigencies of the
war develop new opportunities to in
crease. our political and industrial
democracy, and to extend the influ-
ence of labor in the control of gov
ernment and industrial affairs, we
shall seize the opportunities.
We point to the fact that this con-
structive work for democracy at
home is being carried on by the
American Federation of Labor with
a measure of success which the most
hopeful among us hardly dared
dream was possible. 1t is no exag
geration to claim that already more
has been accomplished by the Fed
Grafton than the so-called Peoples
Council can ever hope to accomplish
more, even, than it has either the
understanding or the imagination to
demand On every board and mis-
sion created for war purposes organ
lied labor is represented by repre-
sentatives of it's own choosing, and
in nearly every contract let by the
government union labor conditions
and wages are provided for. This is
great achievement and we are con-
fident that the will be no retracing,
but advancing of the strides forward
thus taken.
To the men and women of the
American labor movement, and to all
sincere friends of democracy and in
ternationalism, we call for loyal sup
port to America and her allies in this
great struggle. Let US make our
beloved Republic strong and victo-
rious for the sake of humanity, and
thus insure for our children and
their children the priceless heritage
of liberty and democracy. Let US, at
the same time, stand shoulder to
shoulder in the fight against the foes
of democracy within our own bord-
ers, resolved never to rest until the
goal of democracy, industrial, politi-
cal and international, has been at
tanned.
The American Alliance for La
Dor and Democracy brings this
challenge to the brain and con-
science of America, supremely
confident of an enthusiastic and
loyal response to Americas call
for service and sacrifice. And
thus assure to the people of
America and all the people of
all nations opportunity for JUS
tice, freedom and democracy.

STRIKE SITUATION
LAST SATURDAY

From the strike bulletin issued by
the International Unions of Single
Weavers and Timberworkers there
were last Saturday, 81 shingle mills
and six lumber mills in fifty-one
towns in Washington and British Co
lumbia running eight hours, with
bright prospects of more of them
adopting the eight-hour day.

The miners in the Bisbee region have
never had more than a semblance of a
union Whenever an effort was made
to organize, the leaders were report
ed by the company spies and dis
charged The whole tremendous
force of the monopolistic mine comp
any (the Copper Queen Company,
Phelps-Dodge subsidiary, is the dom
inant company was thrown against
organized labor; not alone in the
mines but in the other trades.
A strike of walters and cooks in
October, 1916, was throttled by il
legal punishment for picketing. The
Western Federation of Miners, which
became the International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers,
maintained a feeble local at Bisbee,
embodying never more than a few
hundred of the miners. 1t could not
exist in such unfertile territory.
1t was such condition that the
Industrial Workers of the World
found when they formed a union at
Bisbee. January 27 the Metal Mine
Workers Industrial Union, No. 800,
was chartered in the perilous Phelps
Dodge region. More vigorous than
the Mine, Mill and Smelter union,
it made inroads on the older organ
izations's membership. The Amer
lean Federation men say the l. w.
w. captured the Mine, Mill and
Smelter union by taking out cards
in it and gaining control from within
At any rate, four days after the
strike was called the charter of the
Mine, Mill and Smelter union was
cancelled by the national officers and
the l. w. w. had free rein, if they
did not have it before.
