recent years, non-partisans turn

The socialists elected two and
the republicans the remaining IL.
In the river wards, where fights

To a socialist goes the honor of
piling up the highest plurality of

Ferry Route
EDITOR THE TIMES:

EDITOR THE TINES:
The route of the proposed ferry
seems to be at a standstill. The
route from Scenica to Titlow's
beach and from the beach to Fox
island every other trip would be
better to the taxpayers of Pierce

II those King county taxpayers
want free ferry to their sum-

put another ferry on that route.

Students Burn

cifist filibuster, was hoisted by a
crane and burned In affigy last
night.
Students at Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology made a dunn
my LaFollette, tagged 1t, and then
on the edge of the Charles river
basin, where 1t could be seen for
miles, set II on fire. Long lines
of students executed an Indian war

A lone pacifist, the only one in

mans cause. The students gath
cred about him and endeavored
to change his views by argument.
The endeavor failed and the paci-
fist was held under a cold shower
bath until he became belligerent.

Give the Billion

EDITOR THE TIMES:
Accept my endorsement of your
recent editorial recommending
the gift of billion dollars from
this nation to France as a timely
and sensible method of helping
the German people to come into
control of their government and
become again the brotherly fellow
citizens-of-the-w world they have
always been.
Then il President Wilson sue
ceeds in having congress raise this
billion and the other expenses of
preparing for defense by form
of taxation which will fall upon
those with over $4,000 a year in
come, say, I for one shall not
equeal at any adequate prepare
ton, providing the money is hon
estly spent.
To my mind it will be worth
while having the war scare, or
war IL that must be, il it results
in the American people trying a
form of taxation so much fairer
than anything previously tried.
| believe even those with lover
100000 a year incomes will
like it themselves when they have
given the plan a fair trial, just
as many who voted wet" now
admit that the state is a better
place to live in since it went
dry" They will feel more hui
man, Just as | feel more of man
now that l weigh lao pounds than
/ did when l weighed 10.
Universal military training
may be another good that is to
come from the war. This too will
in time be approved by some who
now think 1t un-American. But no
troops raised by draft should be
sent to Europe. They should be
for the defense of American
homes.
If Mr.. Roosevelt wants to take
volunteers to France, and will
take only men who have no more
pressing duties at home, for one
shall be proud of him and those
who go with him. They will be

orderly persons" and keep order
