CURRENT COMMENT

The rumored abdcation of Kaiser Will
helm is too good to be true, but at that it
may be true. For the past thirty days
things have been travelling at rapid pace
in the European war zone and the Kaiser's
forces have been hurled back from time to
time with deadly effect and multiplied
thousands have been captured and are now
prisoners OF war. The long duration of the
war has doubtless left the German people
in more or less pitiable c6ndition-a
condition that the braggadocio spirit of the
Kaiser can no longer brow beat and when
reverses come their way they begin to
clamor for peace and the Kaiser failing to
fall into the peace spirit it is barely pos
slble that the populace rose in their might
and demanded his abdication, and if they
have not as yet done that, they will do so
sooner or later and German autocracv will
be thing of the past

BERLIN OR BUST

Let there be no quibbling or backing
and filling in dealing with Germany. There
is nothing for the Kaiser but unconditional
surrender-not unconditional surrender some
time, but before the Allies guns are turned
off of his armies. The American people
won't stand for partial victory, but will
insist on the whole hog or none.
President Wilson failed Ito keep us out
of war;" the slogan on which he was re-
elected, and since he did not keep us out
Of war, we insist in remaining in the war
until either the Kaiser or Uncle Sam has
gone to the mat for the count. The Presi-
dents recent rejoinder to the Kaiser's peace
talk is. far from being satisfactory to the
American people, insofar as it may be in
terpreted to mean one thing or many things.
Unconditional surrender and peace terms
dictated by the Allies or the fight goes
bravely on should be the Presidents ulti-
matum to any peace proposals that may
come from the German government.
Playing politics at this time because the
Huns seem to be on the run and the end of
the war begins to loom up above the hori-
zon with the view Of capturing the pro-
German votes in the United States for the
next presidential election should be set
down on so hard by the vox populi Of the
United States that the promoters Of any
such dogma would find themselves in the
regions of "innocuous desuetude," politi-
cally speaking, with no hope Of ever escap-
ing therefrom.
The war is bound to end soon because the
Huns are not only retreating before the
all conquering Allies, but they are daily
losing thousands of their soldiers and like
wise much Of their munitions of war all
of which is weakening them. They may
give it out that they are Withdrawing to
more strongly fortified lines and that may be
true, but they are withdrawing at an awful
sacrifice and the Allies are Tightening their
grip, all of which moves the Allies to ex-
claim, "Berlin or BUST
We want the war to end and end soon,
and we hope the slaughter Of human beings
will stop Immediately if not sooner, but we
are not willing for even that to be done if
it means that it will give the treacherous
Huns time to refortify themselves and then
again become defiant. Unconditional sur
render without diplomatic gravy is what the
Americans insist on

In the death Of Andrew r. Black this
community suffers a severe loss and this
is not said in the usual perfunctory way,
so common to editorial and reportorial
writer's, but earnestly and honestly. The
seventeen years he lived in Seattle were
full and overhowing with usefulness. He
built up an excellent law practice, accumu-
lated great deal Of property and was
rearing splendid family. No one in all
Seattle boasted Of so many white and col
ored friends as did he and hundreds of them
have expressed their regrets of his death.
His wife and two children, however, will
be the greatest losers, not from financial
standpoint, but for the loss Of devoted
husband and an affectionate father

Nothing should be more gratifying to
the good citizens Of Seattle than the recent
order and the prompt enforcement Of the
same Of Mayor Hanson serving notice on
the loafers about the city to go to work at
once if not sooner Seattle should be no
place for human parasites, who earn liv-
ing by questionable means, on the other
hand everyone should earn living by
honest toll. The loafing gentry enjoy the
luxuries Of the land and they maintain in
their employ a retinue Of lawyers doctors,
chauffeurs, ct al, and yet no one knows
how they get enough money to pay all Of
them for their services. Every man and
woman regardless Of color, complexion or
financial accumulation, should be forced to
go to work or forbidden the right to loaf
on the streets. In the past the rule has
been, two-thirds Of the population Of Seattle
played the parasite act while the other
third earned the money. Go to work.

Spanish Influenza is still the all absorbing
question throughout the United States and
multiplied thousands are sick with the dis
ease and many have already died. The
exact origin Of the disease is not known
nor how it happened to get such strong
hold in the cantonments Of the country. In
Seattle there are more than 1000 cases re-
ported and number Of deaths recorded.
The schools churches, theatres and all pub
lie places Of assembling have been closed
and will remain so until the disease shows
signs of abatement. It is the duty of every
one to religiously follow the instructions
of the health department in the matter and
thereby prevent it from becoming an cpl
demic in the city.

CART BEFORE HORSE
Declares Shove In Address Before Cotton Manufacturers Regarding
 Price Fixing for Cotton.

Boston, Oct. 3O.-The action of the government in fixing the price of manufactured goods while refraining from establishing a price for raw cot ton was cited as an example of "plac- ing the cart before the horse," ill an address by President w. Frank Shove, before the National Cotton Manufac- turers Association here tonight.
 "So far as I can see," he continued "the original object of reduction of prices to the ultimate consumer, has not been accomplished. Manufac- turers' prices were fixed some time ago, but second hand distributors fig ures have only recently been fixed. Reductions to and by retailers may follow, but such a result is not yet apparent.
 President Shove dealt at length with the labor problem, declaring that the manufacturers must act as unt to offset the inroads of unionism. Joint action by the two dominant political parties was recommended through the introduction of legislation making "the forcing of non-union labor into the unon and the calling of strikes on account of the employment of non- union workers" illegal action. Edu- cation of workers to a broader view of business was suggested.
 The proposed establishment of a chain of warehouses of southern and northern ports for the storage of cot ton and the extended use of trade acceptances in the purchase of raw cotton were endorsed in the address.
 The committee on labor reported that arrangements had been made whereby a representative of the tevt- ile industry would in the near future be given place on the national war labor board and voice in the settle mcnt of textile disputes.
