GEORGE F. SIEMERS
Nominee for Legislature

ing served as the efficient recorder for the past II
years. Born and raised in this county, he is thorough
ly acquainted with its needs, being of observing
nature and having been engaged in various positions.
He is no orator and makes pretense of being one,
but any one conversant with conditions at Jefferson
CITY knows that the demand is not for orators, but
for men of honesty integrity and willingness to de-
vote time to study of proposed Legislation, and he
can be depended upon not to vote for Legislation OBJ
ectionable to his constituents If there is possibi
ty of righting the wrongs inflicted on counties by
law whereby the burden of bridging diversion chan
nels was shifted counties, his vote will be for
correcting this situation Vote for Semers!

Calling Strikes
EDITOR THE TIMES:

EDITOR THE TIMES:
have been reading with dis
gust ever since July 16, in the
different papers of the north
west, how that measly l. w. w.
has been calling strikes in the
lumber industry for the purpose
Of hampering the government in
the war.
And in the same papers / see
that the Timber Workers union
u making a desperate struggle to
gain control of the woods, and
even go so far as to say they are
winning the wood strike. and adj
NIT that they called said strike.
And still we have 166 members
Of that outlaw organization COM
monty known as the |. w. w. be-
hind the bars in Chicago for call
ing this same strike. Now what
l want to know is, who really did
call that strike? If the Timber
Workers union called it, and they
claim they did, why is 1t that Mr..
Brown and the rest of the active
members of T. w. U. are not in
jail and the I. w. WIS out? The
fact remains that II the T. w. u.
called the strike, not only that
organization is guilty, but the A.
f. of l.. is also guilty of treason.
And I insist and ask my fellow
citizens to insist that Sam Com
bers be arrested at once and put
in jail charged with sedition. and
tried for hampering the govern
ment. in the prosecution Of the
war.
/ am not taking my stand with
the I. w. W., but / do challenge
the officials of the A. #. OF l.. to
deny calling the strike in the
mills and woods, and many other
strikes too numerous to mention.
And the firemen OF the city of
Tacoma went so far as to call q
strike and threaten to leave the
city with. a population of over
100000 without any fire protec-
ton whatsoever. Now, and
thousands OF others are asking
why II is a crime for the I. w. W.
to call a strike and not for any
other organization to do the same
thing. Why aren't the officials
OF the A. F. of l.. and all other
unions, who have struck In the
last few months in jail? They are
all traitors to strike at this time
and hamper the government.

ATTEMPT TO
BURN CHURCH

Smoke and flames creeping In
to the Mason Methodist church.
No. 2Sth and Madison SITS, under
the main doors of the church
almost threw the congregation
into a panic Sunday night. Church
services were being held at the
time.
Investigation showed that
liquid phosphorus had been
thrown into the front vestibule
of the church. The phosphorus
caught fire as soon as it was ex-
posed to the air. Part of the
front door was charred, but the
blaze was extinguished before
any damage had occurred. Police
detectives are investigating.

AMERICANS HITTING JUST
AS HARD AS POSSIBLE.

London. Aug S-Col. Roosevelt's
advice of not to hit soft is hardly
needed by the American troops be-
tween scissors and Rheims, says Reu-
ter's correspondent on the American
front There has been no soft hitting
on the part of the Americans thus far,
nor inclination in that direction.
The Germans asked for rough
war and by heck we are here TO see
that they get it, is the remark of one
American soldier reported by the cor
respondent, who says that the Germans
who fought in the Marine salient
doubtlessly realize that fact.
"If however" the correspondent
continues. German officers, instead of
telling their men lies about 'Ameri-
can Barbarians' would refrain from
acts which produce a white heat of
American hostility, il would be more
TO their advantage. The vast bulk of
American soldiers are home men.
Gentle and kindly things recalling
their own home in the west appeal TO
them as nothing else does. and the
awful ruin of the French homes past
which they have been marching mile
upon mile and hour after hour, has
seemed more distressing to many OF
them than their own losses
They accept the ruin as inevitable
however. giving the Germans the ben
eft OF the doubt, but when in clear
ing up these ruins they come upon in
disputable evidence OF Teutonic savay,-
