about 1t other than the course now
being pursued?
We are the greatest nation in the
world, and one of the attributes of
greatness is the readiness to acknowl-
edge a wrong.
If strikers and non-strikers be-
came involved in conflict, and
furnished to one side guns and am
munition whereby man was killed,
| would be guilty of murder. But
when the muniton maker furnishes
guns and ammunition to murder by
the wholesale, the government says,
that not only he, but his murderous
business should be protected. From
the point of principle, | cannot see
where the one who furnishes the
punished, while he who furnishes
means to murder by the wholesale
should be protected, and in addition,
his business be protected. Every one
who is honest with himself knows
that the latter man is an enemy of
the human race, and hanging is too
good for him. Let us, as a ma
ton publicly acknowledge that we
did wrong in protecting these mon
sters who have furnished the means
to commit wholesale murder. Let
us admit that we have not been
neutral in permitting this to be
done. By doing this, confessing to
mistake, we will give to the world
the greatest moral lesson it has ever
received. Something never done be-
fore, and that is for a nation to
acknowledge wrong. If man
acknowledges a wrong, we term
him a great man. In fact we say
that is one Of the attributes of
greatness. So if we the greatest
nation on the earth, show our great
ness in this manner, it is a lesson for
the world, and the world will adj
mire us for it.
On the contrary, if we must have
war, let us conficate munition plants,
powder plants, owned by any man in
excess of $4,000 Besides limit his
income to this amount and it is safe
to say, it will not be necessary for
him to be planting spuds in his
back yard.
If we do this, other nations will
follow in our footsteps, and the war
will then soon be ended

THE LOGGER'S MONEY

When a logger has worked few
weeks or months he has a natural IN
clination to visit a commercial cen
ter and purchase some Of the neces-
stiles and luxuries of life. He does
not live in a logging camp for the
reason that he prefers it to another
place where he can enjoy the COM
forts of life. He does not work in
a logging camp because he likes the
discomforts, privations and dangers
of the occupation. He works there
to earn the money he must have to
purchase the necessities and luXuries
he must have. If he should visit
a town to buy clothing, shoes and
other things he wants, and finds in
that town good hotels, good restau-
ants and little amusement by way
of diversion, and if treated decently
he will be satisfied and will come
again. But, if he should happen to
take a drink or two too much and
is mulcted in the sum of from &25
to $50 of his hard-earned money he
seeks some other place the next
time he has a dollar to spend. That's
why the loggers and others stay away
from Everett. He loses the enter
tainment this town is able to give
him and the merchants lose the
money he spends.
1t is a fact that a majority Of log
gers, whether or not they drink, give
Everett "a wide berth" 1t is up
to somebody to sit up and take no
tice of this. 1t is a matter of such
common talk that it is scarcely pos
sible that everybody has not heard
it.
Many citizens have seen members
of the so-called "higher-ups" as
drunk as "double-headed firecrack-
ers," and they were only punished
by condemnatory remarks - some
folks think it funny. But let
man not possessed Of a goodly
amount Of this worlds goods appear
on the streets intoxicated, and
"bingo" he gets a nights lodging,
and fat fine, and if he has not a
fat purse he has to sweat it out in
jail.
Is this right? True the city gets
a little revenue, but it drives out
more revenue than it gets. The
victim and the merchant are the
losers.
The merchants of Everett are fair
minded but they are losers by hav-
ing bad leadership.
Let the workers have a say about
their own wages and working condi-
tons and let them spend their money
to suit themselves. It's their money.
Don't penalize every visitor in Ev-
erett who doesn't look like he has
more mony than can be grabbed at
one grab.
1t is about time the man who
earns the money and the merchant
who supplies his wants have a turn
at the wheel.

AS WALL STREET SEES
THE RUSSIAN LOAN

The Wall Street Journals special
correspondent in Washington sent
the following telegram to his pa
per:
WASHINGTON.-A Treasury war
rant for 100000, 000-America' first
loan to the new Russian govern
ment-was turned over by Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo to C. Onou,
Charge of the Russian embassy here.
1t was learned that the United
States was assured that if the hun
bred million dollar loan were made,
Russia's continuation in the war on
the side of the Allies was assured
The Russian government fully IN
derstood that the loan was made con-
tingent on her rejecting of all Ger
many offers for a separate peace.
In delivering the loan, Secretary
McAdoo said it was Americas hope
that the loan would be valuable in
strengthening the cause of liberty,
not only in Russia, but throughout
the whole world. He desired to ex-
tend credit materially to aid that
government.
Charge Onou, replying, said the
Russian government deeply appre-
ciates the accommodation as a mark
of confidence in it by the United
States.
A better feeling is expressed in
banking circles over the Russian sit
uation. 1t is believed that the
worst has been known. The fact
that the United States government
was disposed to lend Russia $780,
0p0,0G0 is taken to many that Wash
Ington is IN possession of more re-
assuring information than has so
far come out.
Also, it puts the United States
government in d position where it
can exercise some control over events
in Russia. Such arc the circum-
stances that it is felt the making
of this loan is not too great risk
to take in view of the result to be
brought about.

IN NEW YORK TONIGHT
TO ATTEMPT COMEBACK

New York, March 23-Joe Rivers,
the Mexican Menace, has declared
himself again in the running for the
lightweight championship. Tonight,
at the Harlem Sporting club, he will
endeavor' to convince local boxing
fans that he is still a formidable con-
tender. His opponent will be Jimmy
Duffy, the West Side lad. The bout
will mark Rivers temperance in a
local ring after a lapse of nearly two
years.
Rivers fighting style is well liked
in this vicinity. He became a local
favorite after his two thrilling bouts
with Leach Cross. Joe, it will be
recalled, came within an ace Of being
the worlds lightweight champion.
when on July IA, 1912, he met AID
Wolgast at Los Angeles.
In the thirteenth round, Rivers
right connected with Wolgast's jaw.
and Adolph was sent into reclining
position. While going down Ads
right nicked Rivers on the chin, AMI
the force of the blow sent Joe down
across the PROSTATE Wolgast. For
some reason or other the referee as
sisted Wolgast to his feet and count
ed ten over Rivers
Rivers is now eager to engage the
present champion, Freddy Welsh, in
combat Also he is not averse to
meeting Benny Leonard first to estab-
Esh his calibre.

ment, fright to Strike
Limited to Public.''

Washinton, March % President

the American Federation Of Labor
have presented to Acknowledgement
Gregory protest against the declara-
ton Of the Supreme Court in the Ad-
| amson law decision that the right Of

name Of the workers Of this country
against the opinion rendered by the
United States Supreme Court in going
out of it's way upon matters not be-
fore the court and dragging in COM
| pulsory arbitration.
1.-THE supreme court, by interpola-
ting into the law and argument before
| 1t for consideration a foreign matter,
| to quit work in furtherance of their
| just and necessary rights, pointed out
| the way to those who wish to tie
| workers to their work in order to pro-

the splendid, progressive fundamental
declaration in both Mexico and Rus
| STA, countries which are passing
| through a period of danger and ma
