Miss Pearl Post entertained the
Club by giving a Valentine party.
Everything was in keeping with
the day, honor being given the
old Bishop in the most approved
style. A short program was rem
dered during the first part of the
meeting, followed by the solving
of a difficult Valentine Pie.
After this the guests tried their
luck at Target practice, by shoot
ing arrows at a heart, but very
few hit the center.
The luncheon was indeed temp
ting, consisting of two courses in
which the color scheme of the day
was fully carried out. Just before
departing, each one drew a heart
with good or bad fortune writ
ten on it.
The time that wasn't taken up
with these amusements was used
in sewing. 1t was undoubtedly an
interesting and enjoyable meet
ing. Miss Post received many
thanks and compliments as to her
ability as a hostess and entertain

AN ICONOCLAST
PARDONED TUESDAY

TACOMA, May 22.-After serving
three months in the county jail for
slandering the memory of the first
president of the United States, Paul
Haffer is once more a free man
today. He was pardoned by Govern
or Lister.
Haffer was sentenced to four
months Imprisonment and to pay the
costs of his trial. His arrest follow
ed the publication in local paper
of a letter in which Haffer charged
that George Washington was an in
veterate drinker, a blasphemer and
a slave holder.
Haffer was locked up at the in
stance of Col. Albert Joab, who him
self was few days ago given
lusty crack on the nose for verbal
abuse of President Wilson.
Haffer was found guilty by
jury in superior court after trial
replete with amusing and ridiculous
incidents. Haffer appealed to the
supreme court, but the findings of
the lower court were affirmed.
When released today, Haffer de-
clared he did not regret his jail eX
perience.
81 have had a good time and
learned a lot," he said. 81 might
say it is an educational experience
every man should have"

PEARSON'S FOR JUNE

The feature articles in Pearson's
for June are "The Passing of the
Court" and the Society for the
Suppression of Vice"
The May Parsons containing the
fifth of Mr.. Harris series on the
night court brought visit to the
office of the magazine from Mr..
Sumner, the successor to Anthony
Comstock. Mr.. Summer seized 400
copies of Parsons found in the of
flee and hailed the editor into court
to answer a charge of circulating
matter of an indecent character,
tending to corrupt the morals of
youth, etc. About the same time
it was announced in the New York
daily papers that the night court
would be abolished. Thus Pear
sons has scored victory after five
months of fighting. The case against
Mr.. Harris will be tried in the New
York courts and will probably lead
to some sensational developments.

THE ENEMIES OF A FREE PRESS
WOULD SUPPRESS IT BY TAXATION

ously hamper and retard that part
of the public press sympathetic to
the appeals and needs of the labor
movement This proposed increase
of postage rates on second-class mail
matter can only benefit those pub
locations supported and financed by
and in the interest of large and gil
gantic combinations of wealth, and
it will destroy those publications
barely eking on; an existence because
of their desire and determination to
serve the great mass of our people,
working men and women of our
country.
The public press, like every other
individual, concern or institution
should be required to pay its just
proportion of war taxes. This how
ever, should be done by increasing
the income and inheritance taxes, a
tax upon profits and upon land val
ues.
To place a double and triple tax
upon the public press is without war
rant and excuse, and simply means
that many publications will be forced
out of existence. Such a condition
will seriously menace the conditions
of life and work of the
men and women employed in the
printing and closely related and kim
dred trades by throwing thousands of
them out of employment. Shall we
sit idly by while the very liveli-
hood of thousands of our fellow-work-
ers is placed in jeopardy, and while
the labor and sympathetic public
press is seriously menaced? Can
we afford to permit that part of
the public press financed by and in
the interest of large and wealthy
combinations of men to control ex-
clusively the means of information
and thereby dominate the minds of
the people of our country?
Profits and incomes should be
taxed, but the very source of en-
ployment of our fellow-workers and
the maintenance of liberal anG free
press should remain unimpaired.
An immediate protest against this
proposed increase in postage rates on
secord-class matter and against the
application of the "Zone System"
should be Immediately directed to
every CONGRESSMAN and senator. Ev-
cry central labor union, state feder-
alton of labor, and all affiliated
unions should Immediately voice their
protest against this menacing pro-
posal. Action to be effective must
be had at once Respond to this
appeal without delay. Act now!
Fraternally yours,
SAMUEL GOMPERS,
President, American Federation of
Labor.
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1917-05-25

OF all the schemes to raise revenue
the proposition to place prohibltive
hostage rate on second-class matter
is the most indefensible. Such an I'M
lust act would raise no revenue for
the government for the reason that
it would put small publishers out of
business and cause the big ones to
curtail their output. Read the pro-
test from Samuel Gompers, president
of the American Federation of Labor,
and give it serious thought. This
threatened increase in postage would
not only not increase the revenues
but would throw, perhaps 100000
men and women in the allied print
ing trades out of employment, thus
making an added burden to be borne
by labor. Read this vigorous protest
and think it over:
To All Organized Labor:
Greeting-Since our nation has be-
come involved actively in the gigantic
struggle for the worlds democracy,
rev tests and problems must be met
and solved. What has made our
progress so notable in the past has
been the indomitable spirit, thrift
and sense of sacrifice of the men
and women of labor for the ulti-
mate greatness of the American La
Dor movement.
Underlying all of our achievements
has been the unrestricted right to
free press, unhampered by unwar-
ranted restrictions and not unduly
burdened by excessive taxation in
any form. The American Fedora
ton of Labor has always protested
against unwarranted restrictions upon
a free press, and will continue pro-
testing until every court and judge in
our land will fully observe this great
fundamental right and guarantee of
liberty of free people.
Within the past few days new
menace has presented itself to the
free press of our country in the leg
islative proposal to tax unduly print
ed matter coming under the rules
of second-class postage. Under guise
of war revenue measure, it is not
only proposed to increase the postage
rate of second-class matter from one
to two cents pound, but it is also
intended to apply "Zone System"
district rates., thereby practically
increasing the cost of carrying print
ed matter from one cent per pound
to six cents per pound. No such
exorbitant rate as this exists for
any class of matter for the longest
worlds routes even in war times.
Such tax is strickly prohibitive. 1t
spells disaster and ruin to the labor
press of our country and will seri-

SECRETARY LANES
OMISSION

Franklin X. Lane, Secretary of
the Interior, calls attention to the
240,000,000 cares still remaining on
the public domain. The press takes
up Secretary Lanes information and
argues therefrom that there is still
plenty of free land for the landless.
The landless read it and became i'm
bued with hopes, doomed to be dash
ed. Why did not Secretary Lane add
to his statement that by far the
greater part of these 240,000,000
are worthless? Some of it needs If
rigation. Some is located on noun
tain tops or is otherwise inaccessible.
There is plenty of good unoccupied
land, but it is privately owned. The
hope of the landless lies in legisla-
ton to force this land to use. Heavy
taxation of land values will do the
work.-American Economic League.
