READY FOR LAREDO!

Arrangements for the Pan-Ameri-
can Federation of Labor conference
at Laredo on Nov. 10 are practically
complete, according to John Murray,
member of the Pan-American Fed
Grafton of Labor Conference commit
tee, in charge of arrangements here.
Mr.. Murray says that the Mexican
Federation of Labor will be repre-
sented by a delegation of twenty
unionists. He expects that. delegates
will come from several of the Gen.
trail and South American republics.
A propaganda of education re-
gardpg both the program of the
conference and the work-an PROCESS
of American organized labor is be-
ing conducted through the Pan
American Labor Press, weekly
paper edited by the members of the
recent American Federation of Labor
mission to Mexico. A half uillion
copies of this paper are printed each
week.
Santiago Iglesias is explaining the
purposes Of the conference to Mexi-
can and South American residents
of cities in the United States. Re-
ports of his work indicate that it is
exceedingly valuable.
Several delegates accredited by the
labor movements of South American
countries are in New York prepar-
ing to attend the Pan-American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor conference at
Laredo in November. Among the
countries represented are Chile,
Costa Rico, Cuba and the Argentine.
The Central Federated union has
endorsed the project of holding q
Pan-American mass meeting here to-
carry to the Latin-American resi-,
dents the message of the coming
conference.

VOLUNTEER WORK.

The Duluth Federated Trades AS
sembly through it's executive commit
tee, have decided to ask men of the
various trades to volunteer their as
sistance in rebuilding the burned
over district.
Every member of organized labor
in Duluth should respond to the call
The work of rebuilding the
burned-Over district has already been
started, and must be completed be-
fore the cold weather arrives, and in
order that this may be accomplished
it is necessary for every able-bodied
man to give what time he can to
this most noble and unselfish work.
1t is a time like this that shows
the true worth OF man.

your services, do so at once.

JUSTICE HOMER b. DIBELT,.

The appointment of Homer B. Di-
bell of Duluth as associate Justice of
the supreme court to succeed the
late Justice George L. Bum, de-
ceased, is heartily received by the
forward looking peopre of Minnesota,
and particularly by those who are
familiar with Judge Dibell's record
as jurist.
We in Duluth who know the man
at close range will bank our lives on
him. Workingmen have reason to
believe in him, for as district Judge
he brought a breath of fresh air to
our local bench when he ignored All
precedence in equity practice and re-
fused to issue a restraining order
against striking street railway en-
ployes without first giving them an
opportunity to be heard The simple
prayer and allegations of the corDo-
ration petitioners were not sufficient
to induce him to follow the we'll
trodden paths then followed by the
courts.
AS a commissioner of the Minne-
sofa supreme court, while without
voice thereon, he has been respon-
sible for a number of splendid de-
cisions that have marked milestones
in the march of human progress.
Jurists like Judge Dibell are rem
dering valiant service in shaping the
law to fit present economic condi-
tons. They are bringing forth "The
New Freedom" so ably and clearly
pointed out by President Wilson In
his latest book.
Our hat is off to Justice Homer B.
Dibell. He will be a fine addition
to an unusually strong court.

W. l.. CARSS FOR CONGRESS.

The real loyalty candidate for con-
gress from this district is W. l..
Carss. He is and has always been
supporter of President Wilson. When
Germany declared it to be her pur-
pose in March, 1917, to begin an
unrestricted submarine warfare Mr..
Carss was very pronounced in his
conviction that the United States
should enter the war, He was not in
favor Of waiting until insult after
insult had been heaped upon us, or
until Germany had declared war
against this country"
This is his record and we assumed
all the time since America entered
the war that this was the record of
Congressman Miller. He voted with
the majority of congress to declare
war against Germany and we be-
lieved his vote was honestly cast.
We have recently been shown several
letters written by Mr.. Miller to his
constituents, all dated Immediately
after he had cast his vote in favor Of
war, which prove to us conclusively
that such vote was not in accordance
with his convictions. He stated in
his letters that he was against de-
claring war on Germany, and ex-
pressed the belief that there We're
more peaceful means of settling the
submarine question. He held in
these letters that President Wilson
had been planning for several months
to force us into war; that the Presi-
dent wanted war" and his war pro-
gram had been so far advanced be-
fore it was presented to congress that
1t was too late to stop it,
The letters were written to local
pacifists who were then unacquainted
with German intriguery in this coun-
try and who> were not informed of
the Prussian plan to conquer the
world, but who have since seen the
light and are whole heartedly sup
porting the program of America and
her Allies to make the world safe for
democracy. Mr.. Miller was near the
source of information at Washington.
He should have known all that the
paci6sts have since learned. If lie
knew this at the time he wrote the
letters above@ referred to, he was
neither honest with the country nor
IWith his constituents. The letters re-
veal a case Of doubtful loyalty, so
Fmuch so that he has proved himself
ito be an unsafe man to sit in the
congress of the United States during
lthis great crisis:
The people Of. this district are be-
!alind President Wilson They can
[best assure the President of their
Esuprort of him and the country by
detecting w. L. Carss to congress.

will soon, be manifested in practical
ways.
AS an example of what is going on,
we are pleased . to cite the action
of Photo-Engravers'' Union No. 10
at its last meeting. The trustees re-
ported that about $1,000 was avail
able for investment and reported op-
portunities for safe investment at
5 IL per cent interest. Ordinarily
this would be considered a sound
recommendation. In war times, how
ever, other things count for more
than high rate of interest.
Almost in one voice the whole
membership protested against con-
sidering the inducement of high i'll
terest and all insisted on placing
the money at the disposal of the
government to be used in helping
to win the war. All the speakers
voiced the sentiment that whether
the money got any interest or none,
every dollar available must be placed
at the governments disposal as long
as Uncle Sam needs money to insure
victorious peace. BY unanimous
vote, the board of trustees was in
structed to invest the money in gov
eminent war securities.
The amount involved is compari-
lively unimportant, but the spirit
displayed is the spirit that is bound
to win the war. This patriotic &C.
ton is an object lesson to financial
and commercial organizations with
large capital to invest.
1t is our hope that all elements
will buy Liberty bonds to their ut
most ability-even at the sacrifice
of higher interest," Our main busi-
ness now is to win the war; all other
business must wait.

TUESDAYS Election

Riddell, Shoemaker and Harrison campaign en-
tirely free from mud-slinging There is plenty of
fault that could be found with city hall conditiOns
every citizen knows that; but preferred to wage
purely constructive fight for the three men we
believed to be the best available.
The voters in the primary left two of the pres
ent commissioners off the ballot; tomorrow we be-
ieve, they will give the town new mayor.
The whole issue involved in tomorrow's election
has been well boiled down in the phrase PETTY
Wrangling VS.. Constructive leadership"
A city of Tacoma Importance and prospects, of
course, can make but one answer to such a ques-
ton. 1t must vote for constructive leadership.
That means Riddel, Shoemaker, Harrison No
of them is politician; each of them is an alert,
intelligent, progressive, square, clean American

ler He is the same gentlemanly, efficient type as

was of the "petty wrangling' sort.
The 81, 100000 power plant bond issue, it almost
goes without saying, will and should be turned
down. For normal times it might be necessary and
desirable; under existing circumstances, it is de-
cidedly ill-advised.
Vote, Tuesday, for Growing Tacoma. And see
that your neighbor votes, too.

LIKE ELECTRIC
| BUTTON ON TOES
Tells why a corn is so
painful and says cutting
makes them grow.

Press an electric button and
you form a contact with a live
wire which rings the bell. When
your shoes press against your corn
1t pushes its sharp roots down
upon a sensitive nerve and you get
shock Of pain.
Instead of trimming your corna,
which merely makes them grow.
just step into any drug store and
ask for a quarter Of an ounce OF
freezone. This will cost very lit
tie but is sufficient to remove
every hard or soft corn or callus
from ones feet. A few drops ap-
piled directly upon a tender,
aching corn stops the soreness in
lstantly, and soon the corn shrivels
up so 1t lifts right out, root and
all, without pain. This drug is
harmless and never inflames or
even irritates the surrounding It's

What is Your Answer?
(From Man in Uniform to Those of Us Who
Are Not)

They say, who have come back from Over There,
that at night the troubled earth between the lines
is carpeted with pain.
They say that Death rides whistng with every
wind and that the very mists charged with tor
ment. They say that of all things spent and
squandered there young human life is held least
dear.
1t is not the pleasanest prospect for those of US
who yet can feel upon our lips the pressure Of
mothers goodbye kiss. But, please God, our love
of life is not so priced as love of right. In this
renaissance of our countrys valor, we who will
edge the wedge of her assault make calm accept
ance of its hazards. For u.s. the steelswept trench,
the stiffenng cold-weariness hardship worse.
For you, for whom go, you millions safe at home
what for you?
We shall need clothes for our bodies and weapons
for our hands,
We shall need terribly and without failure sup
plies and equipment in a stream that is constant
and never ending. From YOU, who are our re-
source and reliance who are the heart and hope of
that humanity for which we smite and strive, must
come these things. CITIZEN SOLDIER NO. 25S.

We know four-year-old who halls the daily
arrival Of The Times with wild delight. He seizes
it and looks at for the little weather picture,
and chuckles with delight over whatever caper Sat-

Then he demands the item be read. 1t is

prediction is 'Fair," "Rain," or whatnOt. And
he checks up the weatherman relentlessly as
