THE WAY TO HANLE THEM.

The treacherous German propaganda works in the same way in several countries, especially in Russia and the United States. In both it appears to be encouraging the pacifists, the mild socialists. the theorists and dreamers. In both it incites the anarchists and the 1. W. W.-the American anarchists. The government has strong suspicion that the propaganda is inspired by German money.
 A man with the courage of his conviction recently arrested leader with twenty-six of his followers in Spokane and locked them up The strike that called by that leader to take place failed miseraby This confirms the belief that many persons have entertained and that is, if a few of the most noisy ones were to be abstract ed from the general herd, the trouble would promptly end. This is what the Seattle peoples have proposed to do Other communities might benefit by following the example.

THE UNDERLYING ISSUE

New York state today passes equal suffrage and as
she bars idiots and from the franchise, n metro
politan editor asks:
will the of the state decide that their mothers

The real question is to whether shall have
