himself into the public eye.

Where organized labor was vitality inter-
ested it made a noticeable stand in the late
election in King county. There is no
doubt but that it was to an extent respon-
sible for Hawthorne large vote. 1t did
this because Hawthorne, if elected would
assist President Wilson in subsidizing the
United States to organized labor. It's ltal-
ian hand showed up in the legislative tick
ct and as a result few Republicans on the
legislative ticket were defeated 1t did this
because it wanted more class legislation put
on the statute books Of the state OF Wash
ington in favor of organized labor In 9TH
er words it's efforts were purely selfish, it
not mercinary. Despite the fact organized
labor indorsed Fred G. Brown exclusively,

apparent that it supported DR.. Edwin j.

Organized labor denounced Clay Allen and
endorsed Calvin Hall and Crawford White
and yet there were not hundred votes diff
ferent between Allen and Hall while White
ran behind Allen almost 1000. Organized
labor either did not fight Allen or it did not
support White. It did, however, hit Wallace

PEACE, SWEET PEACE

Germany quits, the armistice signed, the
war is over and other such catch lines in
the daily papers made the most of us feel
again as life is worth living. The titanic
struggle of an hundred years preparations
to conquer the world has ended in a most
dismal failure--Germany rose against the
world but to see her glories end and what
she will be in the future God only knows.
No the Allies have not as yet marched
through Berlin nor have they made the
Kaiser march under the yoke and perhaps
they will do neither but Germany's power
is forever broken and her empire will be so
well safeguarded by the Allies that another
hundred years will roll round before she
will be able to stand up for her rights Un-
conditional surrender to an enemy in the
frame Of mind as must the Allies be after
five years of bitter struggle and wanton de-
struction of human life and valuable prop
erty on the part of the Kaiser and his Huns
forecasts discouraging future for the Ger
man government But let's not cross the
bridge before getting to it but let s rejoice
and feel exceedingly glad that the bloody
tragedy is at an end regardless of how it
will be settled

ELECTION POST MORTEMS

Prior to the late election Cayton's Weekly
said "the voters all over the North are
thoroughly disgusted with the rule of the
Democratic party and they will show their
utter disguest at the polls by voting for the
Republican ticket as is, though the nomi-
ness may have succeeded in getting on the
ticket by rather questionable means" The
election is over and both branches of Con-
gress which are now overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic will be overwhelmingly Republican
when the congressmen-e take their seats.
While the vote of last Tuesday discredited
the Democratic administration, yet it did
not necessarily per Sc dscredit President
Wilson's lofty and patriotic ideas, but he
permitted the red handed murderers Of the
South to overshadow his good intentions and
the patriotic voters Of the North rebuked
him for so doing by driving his party out
Of power. Sectional and class legislation
must be a thing Of the past if our country
is to continue to forge ahead Even though
for patriotic purposes, the industries of the
North must not be made to bear the bur-
dens of the whole country, while the in
dustries Of the South go laughingly along
unhampered or unhindered. The Democrat
is party (Which means the South) has sewn
to the winds and has reaped a whirlwin and
as a result it finds itself once more the mi
nority party of this country and the voters
only await the sound of the gong to give
Theodore Roosevelt the place now held by
Woodrow Wilson.
With but few exceptions the entire Re-
publican ticket won in King county, but the
heavy vote rolled up by the Democrats was
a genuine SURPRISE Who for single min
ute thought that "Kunnel" Hawthorne
would give John F. Miller the close race
he did? Who had the slightest idea that
Hugo Kelly woul poll as many votes as he
did? And as with these so all down the line
For some unaccountable reason the Repub-
lican party in King county is suffering from
severe cOnvulsions within and unless sub
stantal dose Of elixir of life be administered
it will meet a Waterloo two years from
now. Governor Ernest Lister and his hench-
men are playing a magnificent political
game end if the Republicans do not keep
their eyes on the guns the state of Wash
ington will swing into the Democratic col
umn two years from now. An advertisement
appeared in the columns Of the daily papers
paid for by the Democratic Central Com
mittee prior to the election which gave a
detailed account of what many voters look
ed upon as an automobile extravaganza,
which cost the Republican ticket hundreds
if not thousands of votes. Let the Republi-
cans right about face on such extravaganza

win the election in 1920

In view of the fact that President Wilson
has had less trouble in getting Republican
members of Congress to support his war
measures than Democrats the voters thought
best to give him Republican Congress for
