man. This is the conclusion
- drawn by experts from the
military examinations and
experiences of the past few years as
reported by the editor of the Cur
rent Comment" page in the Journal
of the American Medical Association
Chicago, May 10. Students of eu-
genics, he says, point out that GER
tain races have unconsciously varied
in their choices of partners in such
way as to bring about differing
conditions, with respect to resistance
of disease, to mental capacity, and
to moral quality. OF these, the re-
sistance to disease is susceptible of
most accurate estimation because it
can be considered on the basis of sta
tistical information. He goes on:
"a peculiarly valuable instance is
afforded by the comparison of white
States army. The numbers are suf-
ficiently large to give some semb-
lance of validity to the deductions
which they permit. The white and
colored troops live under equally
good sanitary conditions and are ex-
amined with equal diagnostic skill.

During this famous battle the king

'They had a hard time getting him
to leave the ridge, too" said the
bandsman. There were a number of
generals and others with him and
they were afraid a shell would land
near the king. We were afraid too be-
cause the shells were dropping around
the scenery in great style.

OVERTHROW
OF GOVERNMENT
w. w. HAVE ssEHE DAYn SET FOR
ESTABLISHING B0LSHEFIKI
REGIME HERE

SPOKANE.-That the I. w. w. and
other radical organizations have set
"the day" when they intend to over
throw the existing form of government
in the northwest and substitute a sys-
tenn founded on the "soviet" plan of
Russia and that their plans include
such a revolution in the near future,
is believed by the Spokane police.
Commissioner of Public Safety J. H.
Tilsey abs received information that
Tilsey has received information that
frequent references to "the day" are
said to be made in l. W. W. litera-
ture and correspondence seized by
the police.
"That a serious attempt is being
made to form 'soviets' or working
mems, soldiers and sailors councils
in Portland, Seattle and Tacoma IS
acknowledged in press dispatches
from the Coast, where open meetings
for this purpose have been held"
said Mr.. Tilsey today. "Headquar-
ters for the radicals is said to be in
Portland, and Spokane is included in
the program of organization. A man,
known as w. T. Wicks, a protested
disciple of Lenine, Trotzky and the
holsheviki of Russia, is said to head
the movement. 1t was n of his
followers. Metcalf, who attempted tia
organization of such a council at the
socialist open forum, W309 Sprague
avenue, two weeks ago, but was
stopped.
Increased Activity.
"That there has been an increase
in the activity of the I. w. W. in
Spokane is admitted. For several
months previous to the signing OF the
armistice an acknowledged membe
of the organization was hard to find,
but of late men have been seen
wearing the I. w. w. button openly.
Reports from Washington are that
the espionage law, a sharp-toothed
may be repealed and it is
thought the radicals are taking nope
that the government will relax It's
efforts to stop their organization and
propaganda now the war is over. The
awakening of the l. W. WIS in Spo-
kane and their establishment here
Of a more or less open Headquarters
IN the Mohawk building is taken as
evidence of this fact.
Persons acquainted with the sit
lation and conversant with /. w. w.
tactics say that the radical and ac-
i've members of the Zone Big Union
,ealize that they have by their war
line activities killed their chances
or support from a majority Of the
,ocialistic and radical classes and
hat the "soviet" idea and the forma-
