1T ORIGINATED
in CALIFORNIA

Henry George hated war and like
every world teacher wrote strongly
against it. But when war came
how did he feel and act? A letter
written by him at Sacramento, June
5, 1862, to his sister in Philadelphia,
says: every day the telegraph is
in working order it brings us news
of the success of the armies of the
Republic | cannot help feeling
regret that the contest will be over
and the victories won without my
having taken the slightest part in
it. If | am East after the war is
ended l will feel abashed among its
heroes. If l had been home would
have gone if l possibly could, but
here there was no chance unless one
could pay his passage to New York,
for those who were raised here were
merely to garrison posts and fight
Indians" Except Joaquin Miller,
the poet, Henry George was the most
truly Californian of the several now
world-famous writer's who came to
the Golden Coast in their youth with
the Argonauts. His epoch-making
book, Progress and Poverty" was
conceived, written, and first printed
in San Francisco. Single Tax, in
stead of being a foreign doctrine"
as it's enemies would like to show,
is not only of American origin, but
strictly California product" The
doctrine of the earth for the people
is as old as man, of course, and the
sages of all ages and lands have
taught it, but it was Henry George,
the prophet of San Francisco" who
first showed the world how to at
tain it. In this state Single Tax
was born, and here it will be first
applied in it's purity-when on No
vember 5th, 100000 California voters
cast their ballots for the Land Values

HOW THEY'LL ACT ON
RECONSTRUCTION

The men in the trenches, who have
been freed from the economic serf-
dom to which some of them have
been accustomed, will, it is likely, re-
turn to their homes with new view
and a new impotence of all mere
political phrases, and will demand
real thinking and sincere action.
The days of political and economic
reconstruction which are ahead of
is no man can now definitely as
sess, but we know this, that every
program must be shot thru and
thru with utter disinterestedness
that no party must try to serve
itself, but every party must try to
serve humanity, and that the task
is a very practical one, meaning that
every program, every measure in
every program, must be tested by
this question, and this question only:
1t is just; is it for the benefit of
the average man, without influence
or privilege; does it embody in real
fact the highest conception of social
justice and of right dealing without
respect of person or class or par
ticular interest president Wilson,

EAT YEAST CAKES;
KEEP FLU" AWAY

(Reprinted from the Syracuse, New
York Herald of September 29.)
The use Of yeast as a preventive
against and cure for Spanish in
fluenza is suggested by DR.. Fred
erick H. knott, leading specialist
of diseases of the lungs and physi-
clan to the tuberculosis clinic.
Yeast, DIR. knott said, has been
used with success for many years
in the treatment of acute bronchitis,
diseases of the skin and gastro-in-
testinal diseases. He advises peo-
pie to eat three yeast cakes, one
with each meal.
The free use of yeast, the doc
tor claims, will ward off possible
attack of influenza. The prodcut
increases the white blood corpuscles,
which attack the disease, and there
by adds to the power of resistance
in the body, DR.. knott explained.
Many Doctors Use 1t
"Many doctors here and elsewhere
are administering yeast in treat
ing various infectious diseases" DR..
knott said, "and report exceptional
results.
"There are many physicians who
eat yeast with each meal while
treating infectious diseases. Some,
whose duties bring them in contact
with infectious diseases at intervals,
remain on the yeast diet throughout
the year. The number of doctors
who do this is greater than the
public appreciates.
Success Abroad
Records show that yeast has
been used with success in previous
epidemics of influenza here and
abroad and it seems that if it were
to be administered freely in the pres
ent epidemic conditions would soon
be remedied.
Spanish influenza, which is or
dinarily prevalent in young adults,
makes it's appearance almost an
nually in Germany during June and
July. Spain experiences an epidemic
of the disease practically each year
during the months of July and Au-
gust, at which times about thirty
per cent of the population is af-
fected," DIR. knott said.

LET Us ELECT
GOOD JUDGES

In Judge VIM. H. Pemberton of
the Whatcom County Superior Court
we have a candidate for Justice of
the Supreme Court who is broad
minded, learned in the law and pro-
gressive.
This is also true of Judge W. 0.
Chapman of the Pierce County Su-
perior Court and Justice John R.
Mitchell, candidates for the six-year
term on the supreme bench.
These men have profound knowl-
edge of law and a deep sense of JUS
tice, well fitting them for the high
and honorable position which they
seek.
Labor does not ask that men be
elected to the highest judicial of
fees who will favor workingmen
above other citizens, they only ask
thai men be elected to these honor
able positions who have a thorough
knowledge of law and a keen sense
Of justice, judges who will hand
down decisions so just and fair that
no honest, intelligent citizen will in
dulge in adverse criticism.
We do not want judges to make
laws. We have legislatures for
that purpose. We DO not want
judges who will construe the con-
stitution and the laws to fit cases
brought before them. but judges
whose construction of the laws will
be in accord with their meaning in
the English language.
Such men we have as candidates
for the five seats on the supreme
bench to be filled at the elections
on November 3. Labor has selected
the following named honorable gen.
tlemen as having the necessary quail
ifications:
For the Six-year Term-Wm. H

County Superior Court; W. 0. Chap

Court and John R. Mitchell of

For the Two-year Term-Warren
w. Tolman of Spokane.
The two. last-named received a ma
iority of the votes cast at the pri-
maries and are therefore elected.

the following letter to lawyers and
laymen may read it and find in it
much food for reflection:

I'd for Judge of the Supreme Court
at the recent primaries and lead
he judicial ticket in my own coun-
ty and two adjoining counties and
was one of the three highest in
he State, eliminating one county,
"The Constitution provides that a
majority of the Supreme Court is
necessary to pronounce decision.
Yet they permit minority of three
of the nine judges to decide a case.
Judge Neterer and / had a case
(Wilson VS.. Cain Lumber Co., Cd
Wash, 533) wherein three judges
Of a department said that it should
be reversed while two said it should
be affirmed. They denied our re-
quest for a majority to pass upon
the case through a hearing en- banc.
"In another case, where the judges
stood three to two in one depart
ment, the dissenting opinion said
that the rule of three was pernicious,
yet they refused to permit a major
ity of the whole Court ito pass upon
that question.
"Jf they can divide the Court into
Two departments and permit ma
iority Of the department to decide
cases, they can divide the Court
into three departments and two
Judges would then be able to de-
eide cases.
Where the learned judges in one
department disagree l believe the
points in issue should be settled by
majority of the whole Court. 1t
is more difficult to secure a ma
jority to decide for you when you
are in the wrong than it is to Sc
cure a minority.
1--WE are fighting to make the
world safe for Democracy, which is
the rule by majority. We should
enforce this rule in our own insti-
buttons. We should elect men to
the Supreme Court who believe in
the majority rule, and the law will
not be so uncertain and the people
will have greater respect for the
Court.
Thanking you, I remain,
Very truly yours,
WILLIAM H. PEMBERTON."
We now have judges on the su-
preme bench who declare laws not
favored by the privileged classes un-
constitutional, yet they violate the
constitution themselves. (See second
paragraph of Judge Pemberton's
letter, quoted above.)

Of increasing the number Of dele
gates from each civic club from
three persons TO five. The motion
to grant entrance 10 organizations
other than the ) civic clubs 10 the
federation was introduced but was
not adopted. The reason for this
was that many of the members Of
the federation believed that if en-
trance privilege was granted 10 one
organization in the city, other than
the civic clubs that IL should be
granted to any organization that
might request it, and il was felt that
not all organizations that might
desire entrance into the federation
could be helpful on account of the
nature OF their interests. Decision
on the motion was carried over TO
the next regular meeting.
