fit to take from us one of our most
faithful members, Mr.. w. L. Richard

of humanity and Gods kingdom.
Therefore be it Resolved, lst, That
we as a Sunday school extend to the
bereaved family our deepest sympa-
thy. May Gods richest blessings rest
upon them in this their sad hour
Resolved, 2ad That in the death Of
"Uncle Billie" we, the Chestnut Grove
Sunday school have lost a faithful
member who has served US as super
intendent forty-eight years, always
putting his heart and soul in his work
While we shall miss "Uncle BilIie's"
cheerful face and wise counsel, we feel
devoutly thankful 70 Our Heavenly
Father that it was our privilege to
have the sweet association with him
and his good influence.
Resolved, 3rd, That the entire com
munity has lost a truly good man. the
church a consecrated Christian, and the

THEY'RE WEAKER THAN
1T WAS EXPECTED

Last Monday the convention of the
American Federation of Labor over
whelmingly approved the course of
President Samuel Gompers in work
ing hand in hand with President
Wilson and placing the needs of
the nation above all other considera-
tons in questions involving the
working mans part in a vigorous
prosecution of the war against Ger
many.
The vote of confidence came after
more than three hours of debate, in
which pacifists were given chance
to discuss freely the question before
them.
Out of total of 45O delegates,
only Is were recorded in opposition.
The test of strength came on a
resolution endorsing "the patriotic
work" of the Alliance for Labor and
Democracy, which Mr.. Gompers took
an active part in organizing as an
offset to the Peoples Council, pac-
ifist organization.
Before the meeting of the conven-
ton there were many who thought
the pacifists and pro-Germans would
show much strength, some profess
ing to believe that strength was
great enough to overthrow the A.
F. of L. officials and start a reg
ular bolsheviki movement, as it were.
The country may now feel salts
fled that organized labor will do
what it can to strengthen the hands
of the government, Notwithstanding
it is compelled to fight for it's life
against the hosts of greed.

Movement:
owe, the officers of the National
and International Trade Unions of
America, in national conference as
sembled, in the capital of our nation
hereby pledge ourselves, in peace or
in war, in stress or in storm, to
stand unreservedly by the standards
of liberty and the safety and preser-
walton of the institutions and ideals
of our republic. In this solemn hour
of our nations life, it is our earnest
hope that our republic may be safe
guarded in its answering desire for
peace, that our people may be spared
the horrors and the burdens of war,
that they may have the opportunity
to cultivate and develop the arts of
peace, human brotherhood and civil
zation.
"But despite all our endeavors
and hopes, should our country be
drawn into the maelstrom of the
European conflict, we, with these
ideals of liberty and justice herein
declared as the indispensable basis
for national policies, offer our SER
vices to our country in every field
of activity, to defend, safeguard the
republic of the United States of
America against it's enemies whom
soever they may be, and we call
upon our fellow workers and fellow
citizens, in the holy name of liberty,
justice, freedom and humanity to de-
votedly and periodically give like

THE NATIONAL PARTY

On the Bird and 4th of October in
Chicago, there was organized the
National Party by a combination Of
Moderate socialists, trade unionists,
women suffragists, prohibitionists,
progressives, single takers and other
forward looking people who have the
welfare of this country and its peo-
pie at heart
D. C. Coates Of Spokane was Sc
lected as one of the national vice
presidents Of the new party and
was charged with the organization
in the state of Washington.
This new party starts off by "rec-
ognizing God as the source of all
beneficial government" thus MAX
ing it incompatible with the declara-
ton Of independence and the consti-
tuion Of the United States. This
at the very start was unnecessary
as the deity needs no recognition at
the hands Of any political party
Some Of the elements of the COM
bination, to say the least, are incon-
gruous, in that their practices in the
past show them to be intolerant.
None Of that sort of stuff will make
for harmony.
The new party grew out of the
North Dakota Non partisan League,
whose profession and practice are
highly meritorious and eommenda-
BILE
The Journal will in future issues
give its readers parts of the New
National Party platform which was
framed to suit the ideas of nearly
all kinds of progressive thinkers

SOCIAL UNREST
SELF-CREATED
(Bv the Rev. Charles Stelzle)


Practically every American boy
has, at some time, been thrilled by
the idea that he may become Presi-
dent of the United States. Has he
not been told repeatedly that this
is quite within his rights?
There is something fine in the
thought that the greatest gift within
the power of the people may in time
be bestowed upon the humblest
youth in the land.
But here, as in some other things,
it would be we'll to give the young
people of our country a clearer sense
of proportion and an appreciation
of true values. 1t is so manifest
ly impossible for more than perhaps
a dozen men to become President
during the average period of posi-
bility in a mans life, that it would
be well to center the boys attention
upon these things to which he may
attain with almost absolute certain
ty, if he is willing to pay the price
of persistent hard work. For, after
all. this is the essence of genius.
There are thousands of men in
this country, unsuccessful products
of our professional schools, who
might have made first class me-
I chanics. On the other hand, there
are large numbers of workingmen
who aspired to positions in life for
which they were utterly untitled and
who have today degenerated into
bitter cynics.
This class furnishes a large per-
centage of those who are dominated
by the spirit of social unrest. They
are the disappointed Missionaries
among the artisan class-the ideal
lists without a sense of proportion.
1t is unfortunate that our system
of education-particularly in our
public schools-is such that the vast
majority of children, even the sons
and daughters of the working class,
desire to become professional men
and women because they have an
idea that such work is more gen
teel than that in the trades; with
the result that the professions are
overcrowded with people who are
untitled for the occupations which
they have selected as their life's
work
The next great task of our edu-
cational institutions is so to dignity
mechanical labor that it will appeal
to the boys because of the possibili-
ties in it for them. This will raise
the artisan class to a higher and
saner level, and will give the eff
ficient workingman the place in So
ciety to which he is justly entitled
1t will take away the false con-
ception, present even among work
ingmen themselves, that to toll with
ones hands is to accept a mental
position

JOHNNY CAMPBELL
ON THE WORLD

"Mr. J. f. Campbell, formerly
manager of the Everett Labor Jour
nal, and an experienced newspaper
man, has joined the forces of the
Labor World and has been placed
in charge of the advertising depart
ment.
at is the intention of the editor,
in conjunction with Brother Camp
bell, to make the Labor World a
bigger and better paper in every
way from this time on and it is
with this idea in view that Mr..
Campbell will call upon the merchants
of the city in the interest of the
paper.
"As a successful advertising medi-
UNI a labor paper cannot be sur
passed. Printers Ink, a recognized
authority on this subject says:
"A labor paper is far better
advertising medium than an ordi-
nary newspaper in comparison with
circulation. A labor paper, for ex-
ample, having 1000 subscribers, is of
far more value to the business man
who advertises than an ordinary pa
per with 10000 subscribers"
The above from the Spokane La
Dor World indicates that Brother
John E. Campbell intends to stick
to the newspaper business.
Bill Coats and Jack Campbell are
a fine pair to draw to. The Jour
nal wishes them success and large
gobs of prosperity.
