A FREE ART SCHOOL WILL
BE OPENED IN EVERETT

The people of Everett should
congratulate themselves upon the
fact that the National Liberal
Arts and Science League repre-
sented by Lucille A. Mint will give
free art school throughout the
holiday season beginning on the
afternoon of December the 26th
at 2 o'clock. Since the place of
meeting has not yet been decided
upon as this issue of the News
goes to press, it is requested that
all who are interested call up
White $40, Black SAB or this of
flee, Main Ats.
These holiday free schools have
been held in Santa Cruz, California,
in the state of Kansas and for three
seasons in Seattle.
The classes will be held in the
mornings at ten, in the afternoons
at two and in the evenings at 8
o'clock. The afternoon sessions are
given chiefly for the convenience of

home-keepers and mothers. All
children under the eighth grade must
be accompanied by parents. All
adults and children above the eighth
grade are eligible without any ex-
ceptions. AS stated above these
classes are free.
Those who know about Miss MINIS
work guarantee that her work sur
passes anything of the kind in the
country being as it is an original
method of teaching. She maintains
that anyone can learn the art of
drawing and she is willing to prove
her contention.
We heartily recommend this course,
which will continue for two weeks,
to every person in the city who can
arrange by hook or crook to attend
these classes. You may attend all
of them if you wish. There are no
restrictions on the amount of time
you spend in this work. This is an
opportunity of life time. Do not
pass it by!

THE PERFIDIOUS
PATRIOTISM
OF ARMOUR

FARGO, N. D.-Contracting with
the government for condensed milk
to feed the soldiers at war at a
good profit, then going out into
territory which the government has
covered with regulations as to milk
supply and the price consumers are
to pay, and offering more for the
milk, is the unmasked patriotism of
the Armour & Company Condensed
Institution at Bloomer, Wisconsin.
The poor people of st. Paul are
suffering for the want of proper
milk supply because of this method
of doing business by powerful cor
poration.
There have been many hateful
things stated about this Armour
Company; there have been accusa-
ton hurled at them without reser-
walton, and some people have said
they were wronged; but to the mind
of the writer, all of what has been
declared against them is only
drop in the bucket of what they de-
serve.
This is the patriotism Of big bust
ness.
This is the kind of patriotism which
is always in the lap of big bust
ness.
Uncle Sam will find sooner or
later that profits are more precious
to these immense institutions than
soldiers in the trenches in France
or even democracy itself.
Uncle Sam must be on the look
out for this same loyalty with the
food administration under Mr..
Hoover.
Big Business will employ cam
ourflage wherever the necessity de-
mands and will go to any measures
to protect their dollars as against
the freedom and democracy of the
world

REVOLUTION
IN PORTUGAL

LIBSON, Tuesday, Dec. 12.--Dr.
Sidonio Paes, leader of the revolu-
ton, has been made Premier and
Foreign Minister. Machado Santos,
who led the uprising year ago. has
been appointed Minister of the in
terror. The other portfolios have
been distributed as follows: Public
instructions, Alfredo Magazines; JUS
tice, Moura Pinto; labor, Feliciano
Costa; marine, Aresta Branco; COM
merce, Xavier Esteves; finance, Sam
tos Vegas; colonies, Tamagnini Bar
boza.
We clipped the above press dis
patch from the next to the last page
of large daily. No particular in
formation is given; it doesn't say
anything particularly; so, we have
to read between the lines.
Portugal has been a Republic for
some time. There are only two

second, the Socialists. If the for
mer king, or other "pretender" had
staged "come back the aristoc-
racy Of blood and of wealth would
be again assured of doing business
for profit as usual, and there would
be great rejoicing not only among
them, but the big business papers
in this country even would be throw
ing up their hats. But mol Only
a squibb on an obscure page.
This leads US to the other alterna-
tive, that the Socialists had come
into power, with program which
include: CONSUMPTION Of wealth, con-
scription of all natural and artificial
monopolies and all industries neces-
sary to the life and well being Of
the people, full and equal suffrage,
and the reputation of the national
debt. That would explain the COM
parative silence Of the press.

WENDELL PHILLIPS
IN 1870, SAID:

eve affirm as fundamental prin-
ciple that labor, the creator of
wealth, is entitled to all it creates.
affirming this, we avow our
selves willing to accept the final
results of the operation of a prin-
cipal so radical; such as the over
throw of the whole profit-making
system, the extinction of all mo-
nopolies, the abolition of privileged
classes, universal education and fra
ternity, perfect freedom of exchange,
and, best and grandest of all, the
final obliteration of that foul stig-
ma upon our so-called Christian civ
ilization-the poverty of the masses.
eve declare war with the wage
system, which demoralizes alike the
hirer and the hired, cheats both,
and enslaves the workingman; war
with the present system of finance,
which robs labor, gorges capital,
makes the rich richer and the poor
poorer and turns a republic into an
aristocracy of capital. We demand
a tcn-hour day for factory work as a
first step, and that eight hours be
the working-day of all persons thus
employed to do the same kind and
amount of work as men perform,
they shall receive the same wages"

CAPITALISTS PRAISE
THE COSSACKS

The principal opponents of the
Bolsheviki now appear to be the
Cossacks, and the Cossacks are
highly praised by the capitalists and
their kept press in this country. The
cossack has become notorious for his
cruelty. The name is always as
ISOLATED with bloodshed, brutalities,
knouts. sabres, clubs, dcportations to
Siberia and similar high-handed
methods of repression. So capital
list praise establishes the connection.
The support Of reaction in Russia
strips the mask from the masters in
America and shows that their desires
are for conditions similar to those
which cursed that Cossac ridden
country in the pre.revc!utionary
days. The capitalists program in
America is essentially the same as
that Of the old ear.
We now have greater faith than
ever in the Bolsheviki. They have
reason to be proud 70 their enemies
and we have reason to distrust the
friends of the Cossacks. The en-
ploying class and the working class
have nothing in common.

congress has decided to ignore the
law.
Announcement was made yester-
day that revolutionary courts would
be established throughout the coun-
try on December 20 to assist in car
rying on the struggle of the Boil
sheviki government against counter
revolution and to stop brigandage,
sabotage and speculation.
New Method of Procedure
Members of the courts will be
revolutionaries chosen by local coun-
ellis of soldiers and workmen's dele
gates.
According to the announcement,
the courts will have free choice of
means of dealing with those who
disobey the orders of the revolu-
tionaries. The following punish
ments are suggested:
Fines, public disapprobation, re-
fusal of state credit, compulsory la.
Dor, Imprisonment. Every citizen
of good standing is entitled to the
services of a public advocate. All
cases must first be submitted to an
investigating committee nominated
by the soldiers and workmen's dele
gates.

ed for each paper to properly super
wise and edit information regarding
the questions of preparedness, mil
tarism, financial policies, and other
things of national and international
nature considered vital to the inter-
ests of the purchasers.
This contract is in existence at
the present time and it accounts for
the news columns of the daily press
of the country being filled with all
sorts of preparedness arguments and
misrepresentation as to the present
condition of the United States army
and navy, and the possibility and
probability of the United States be-
ing attacked by foreign foes.
This policy also included the sup
preston of everything in opposition
to the wishes of the interests served
The effectiveness of this scheme has
been conclusively demonstrated by the
character of the stuff carried in the
daily press throughout the country
since March, 1915. They have re-
sorted to anything necessary to COM
mercialize public sentiment and sand
bag the national congress into max
ing extravagant and wastful appro.
priations for the army and navy I'M

essary. Their stock argument is that

ed in dispatch from Haparanda, in
Sweden, ut the Finnish frontier, to
the Berlingske Tidende. The bolshe.
Wiki are said to have sent troops
against him.
The above is made out of whole
cloth by the reactionsry press. They
are hoping against hope that some
thing or somebody will turn up and
head off the establishment Of a real
democracy In Russia. Democracy is
what they abhor. They will stoop
to anything to help reestablish the
plutocracy. But there is not the
slightest danger that Kerensky will

mand. They got together and pass
ed resolutions and appointed commit
tees which were to do the bust
ness.
But the business did not get
done.-Gilson Gardner in the Star.
Socialists have long been pointing
out these very things; but they
have been jeered at and laughed
down. 1t is momentous vindica-
ton of the Socialist philosophy.
Supporters of the capitalist system
have always met our arguments with
the assertion that it won't work"
1t tickles US now to have them ad-
nit that their old system has Gin
CONTINUOUSLY failed"
Bear in mind that all business in
the U. S., with the exception of
federal and some municipal enter
prises, is operated on the same
general plan as the railroads have
been; penny efficiency and pound
wastefulness; no coordination; dupli-
cation; corruption.
1t may not be long before people
generally will begin to realize that
all monopolies and all industries that
are necessary to the life and welfare
of the people should be owned and
controlled by the PEOPLE, leaving
to private ownership the things that
are privately and Individually used.

LABOR REPRESSION
IN AUSTRALIA

A great strike upheaval has been
in progress in New South Wales
Australia for more than two months
So anxious have the capitalists been
to stop the strike from spreading
that news of it that even New
Zealand papers complain of lack of
news. 1t is reported that there
were 100000 men out. A cable
says the strikers have gone back to
work on the governments terms;
yet the Seamen and Wharfies are
still out. An Australian, however,
says: without the strike the in
dustrialists would have been down
and out. Better, thousand times
better, industrial activity, even if it
be called defeat" than to be cholo-
formed by inertia and apathy"
4 Recently there passed the Unlaw-
full Association Act, a measure d.
rected against the l. w. w. A.

Members voted for this repressive
law. The Fuller Government is al

ALL RAILROADS WILL SOON
BE TAKEN OVER BY GOVERNMENT


WASHINGTON. = Will President
Wilson give the order to take over
the railroads and have them run
under a single government control?
An affirmative answer to this ques-
within the next few
days.
Private operation of the railroads
has broken down. When most need
ed, the roads have ANONYMOUSLY
failed. The food, fuel and war needs
Of the country are cut off by the
collapse of transportation.
The competitive instinct, a desire
for dividends and a general habit of
inefficiency are responsible for the
failure of railroad operations.
The managers continued to run the
roads for freight receipts rather
than for freight movement.
The banking and investing inter-
ests in possession of the railroads
have fought off the threatened gov
eminent control. Their representa-
tives have promised everything. They
were patriots and were willing to do
voluntarily what they did not want
done to them by force of executive
authority.
They would coordinate, pool equip
ment, exchange cars and rolling
stock, and work out a degree of eff
cheney which would meet every de-
