PERVERTED AMBITIONS.

Women of our city, of Tacoma, Seattle and
other parts of the state, prominent in womens
political affairs, deplore the conduct of these
misguided enthusiasts at Washington who, picket
ing the White House in the hope of distracting
and harassing the president, sought to display
banners hostile to. him and his statement of the
national war aims and saw them promptly torn
from them and tramped in the dust by indignant
crowds. All of these women of ours residents OF
state that enjoys equal suffrage, several of them
recent campaigners of other states in the interests
of the cause, unite in declaring these recent
tactics border on treason and indicate perverted
ambitions and anxiety to obtain notoriety, and
have postponed the day of national equal suf-
frage and made the task of the real suffrage work
ers doubly difficult.
The residents of good many Of those states
where women do not vote, Disguised and exas-
perated by such acts, are might apt to say: They
aren't entitled to vote-they oughtn't be let to
vote-look at what they did down at Washington
the other day.. So have enemies been made out
Of possible friends so has it been made more diff
ficult to convince Them that women have good
sense and good judgement in abundance and
should be permitted to vote, by methods akin to
those which even England's militant suffragettes
abandoned after the war broke out.
Heretofore the suffrage campaign in this coun-
try has been carried forward on more sensible,
more logical grounds and has succeeded in nearly
every instance where it has been 50 conducted,
and there is every reason to believe that the
campaign would have gained speed more rapidly
in the next few months and years, had it not
been for these untoward incidents. It has been
set back now in popular favor unquestionably.

WHAT WE HAVE DONE.

u \
In more local and personal sense, Thurston
county has wreathed itself with triumphant
patriotism by its liberal subscription to the Lib
erty Loan, seventeen thousand five hundred do
Lara more than its allotment and by its most gen.
erous gift Of twenty six thousand dollars to the
Red Cross, nine thousand dollars more than was
asked for or almost half as much again as it had
been requested to contribute
Thurston county is proud of that record and
most certainly should be- It is proud Of it. not
only because Of the fullness of its patriotic demon
sraton, but also because it illustrates again for
- most convincingly that when we really set out
to do thing, we can do it. We have measured
mp to our allotted task and have done far more,
and SO we have once more shown our neighbors
on all sides that we are up and doing here, alive
and on the map and going to stay there, ready to
do our share and lot more.

worlds tremendous problem which seek
ing to solve and solve as rightly as We know how,
so far outshadow all other issues, all other ques-
tons and all other problems that they are as
nothing. And the public mind is rapidly reach
ing that stage, is fast coming to the point Of de-
manding that all shall give due recognition to
the great issue and our nations part in it, and
will soon cease to tolerate those wilfuly seeking
to obstruct it.
The people of this country have been patient,
they have been slow to anger, ready and willing
to give each the fullest liberty Of thought and
action, generous enough to overlook some digres-
sions in the hope that the real situation would
become plain to all and would reap from all full
and free allegiance but they are swiftly reaching
that point where they will demand that We shall
all "speak, act and serve together, as President
Wilson said some weeks ago, and will deal harshly
with all who interfere.
Not stupid acquiescence in everything nor yet
blind following of a leader is needed, but the
understanding by each one of us and the fullest
acknowledgment of it, that in the face of the
national call and the international issue, all else
paes into insignifcance.

RECALLING AN ADMoNIT1oN.

Governor Lister in brief address in this city
the other evening emphasized the fact that SO long
as the continues we must subordinate our
individual views and opinions to the national
demands and the international problems and give
wholehearted, willing, eager support to the great
est struggle the world has ever seen to establish
free governments everywhere He meant, in other
words, that in these times the individual is
wrapped up in the nation as the nation is swal-
lowed up in the world war, that nation and indi-
vidual are one, that our individual opinions are
insignificant to the great world issue and that
nothing should hinder our fullest support of the
government in the prosecution of the war against
autocracy.
recent years that we need to give heed to that
statement Most of us do, most of us realize that
our own personal ideas are as nothing compared
to the great world issue, and most of us have
already seen the wisdom and necessity of sub
ordinating everything to the national call. But
there are few Copperheads among u.s. few
agitators, few unsatisfed, turbid, disgruntled
souls whom Heaven would not please and to whom
the millennium would be nightmare who strive
to promote what after all petty disturbances
among us. These are the ones who need to stop
and think soberly and honestly with themselves
a little WHILE overcoming their prejudice if they
can setting their feet fatty upon the earth and
frankly and earnestly searching their souls and
minds
1t isn't necessary for us to lose our individual
ISM our ego--t is necessary for us to realize that
the national welfare, the national policy and the

When somebody in your neighborhood gets to
ranting around about the government and the
flag and this country of ours biff him one in the
jaw, knock him down, sit on him and direct his
attention to the following provision Of the espion-
age bill recently passed by congress- Section three
of Title l.
Sec 3. Whoever, when the United States
is at war, shall wilfully make or convey false
reports or false statements with intent to in
terfere with the operation or success of the
military or naval forces of the United States
or to promote the success of its enemies and
whoever, when the United States is at war,
shall willfuly cause attempt to cause in
subordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal
of duty in the military or naval forces of the
United States, or shall wilfully obstruct the
recruiting or enlistment service of the United
States, to the injury of the service of the
United States, shall be punished by fine
of not more than $4,000 or Imprisonment
for not more than twenty years. or BOTH
Bear in mind the fact that every young man
between the ages of twenty-one and thirty one
is now part Of "the military and naval forces
of the United States" and that mighty few re-
marks could be made against the government that
would not interfere with the operation or sue
cess'' Of the forces or not 'cause or attempt to
causes"'srefusal of duty" Let that sink into
his loyalty and patriotism.
And if it doesn't work take him out behind the
barn and lick him again.
