CANNY SCOT MAKES CHRISTMAS
 SELECTION


 Nearly everyone has heard the tale of the cigar dealer, who, with the Christmas spirit working within him, invited all the customers in his shop on Christmas Eve to have a cigar When he asked them to make their selection, all took cigars or cigarettes except one Scotchman who said; I'll take dime out of the till
 Many an unjust story is unloaded upon the Scotch but most people feel about ether Christmas gifts as the Scotchman felt about the cigar He didn't smoke cigars and did not want one but he did mant the gift. We want and value the expression of friendship and good will and affection that Christmas gifts carry but many times we do not want the non-usful and inappropriate and ill-considered gifts selected to carry that expression.

NO PITY OR SYMPATHY

In an address before the Rotary Club OF
Baltimore Bishop Thirkiel of the M. b.
Church and stationed in New Orleans, in
making a plea that more consideration be
given to the colored citizens Of this country
by the white citizens, among other things
said, ''There is no Negro problem, but
what is much needed is Negro program. "
We quite agree that there is no Negro prob
lem, but we take issue with him on his Negro
program. If anything at all the Negro is
full fedged citizen and if not hindered in
his onward march he will reach the goal
without any program by which he is to
travel. The colored man needs no sympa-
thy nor pity, but he does need to be just
lest alone, and if he is he will act just as
does the white man. We object to any set
program being fixed for. colored men any
more so than for white men. If this is
free country where everyone irrespective of
color or creed can act on his own initiative
as long as no fixed law is violated then give
the colored man the same leeway as the
white man and he will come as near taking
care Of himself as the white. What sauce
for the goose should likewise be sauce for
the gander.

The colored soldiers went to France and
acted well their part, yes so well that the
world is giving them the praise but the
white slackers who succeeded in keeping
out Of the service, are preparing to give
the oversea colored soldiers a warm recep-
ton, if they do not return in an even more
humiliating state of mind than were they
before they left for the front. In mobs the
Southern white man is some brave boy, but
alone more miserable coward is nowhere
to be found under heavens broad canopy.
That the colored man of this country is one
Of the most patriotic souls that is to be
found is self evident, for while fighting in
France for the flag the white slackers Of
the South were lynching their fathers,
mothers, sisters and brothers and yet he
fought on. It would seem to us that the
white man of the South would see the error
Of his way some time and resolve within
himself to do unto others as he would have
others do to him, though the others had
dark skins.

THE PRIMARY LAW

Many Of the states that adopted the pri-
mary system for nominating candidates for
political offices are repeating the law and
going back to the old convention system,
and Washington state would do well to fol-
low suit. The primary law has been kicked
and cufed so much since it first took effect
in this state that it's parents would not now
recognize their own child. AS the primary
law will stand after June 18th next the
nomination of party candidates will be little
short Of roaring farce Take for example
the nomination of candidates for state offices
next year such thing can happen that one
may be nominated for governor and yet
not receive more than 10 per cent Of the
vote cast. AS obnoxious as was the second
choice nomination it came nearer expressing
the will Of the majority than the law as it
now stands. Suppose next year Clark Saw
age, Roland II. Hartley, George B. Lamping,
Louis T. Hart and one or two more equally
strong candidates file for the gubernatorial
nomination, it's safe bet that the fellow
getting Is or 20 per cent Of the votes cast
will be declared the party nominee, which
would be neither the will Of the majority or
the wish of the minority, but the desire of
close corporation bunch more dangerous
by far than the old bunch that fixed the slate
in the back office room Of some political
big chief No one should be declared the
party choice who does not receive a majority
Of the votes cast. In case a number of per-
sons run for the same nomination and none
receive majority vote then the two receiv-
ing the highest number of votes should
hold second primary and let the people
fully decide. Expensive, you say. Quite
right you are, but what are expenses in
comparison to the majority ruling. Other
states have successfully used this method
and why not Washington. One trial of the
primary laws as amended by the last legis-
lature will, in our opinion, be amply suffi-
cient to warrant the repeal Of the whole darn
thing that something new may be given us
or return to the old convention system.

DIFFERENCE IN DEFINITION

The world has never had a good definition
of the word liberty and the American people
are just now much in need of one We all
declare for liberty, but in using the same
word we do not all mean the same thing
With some the word liberty may mean for
each man to do as he pleases with himself
and the product of his labor, while with
others the same word may mean for some
men to do as they please with other men
and the product Of other mems labor. The
shepherd drives the wolf from the sleeps
throat, for which the sheep thanks the shep-
herd as his liberator, while the wolf de-
nounces him for the same act as the de-
stroyer of liberty. Plainly the sheep and
the wolf are not agreed upon a definition
of the word liberty, and precisely the same
difference prevails today among us human
creatures.-Abraham Lincoln

WHITE AND COLORED SOLDIERS

When this country first entered the Euro
pean war the Southern white citizens went
into Mysteries lest the government call COL
ored men to arms the same as white men,
From every Southern state came the hew
and cry, "this is white mans war and
black men are not wanted'' Subsequent
developments however failed to verify the
contentious of the Southern whites, for as
the war progressed here is record of the
white and colored men who enlisted from
the South: incidentally, of 36O,71O colored
men inducted into the Service by draft, $780,
OFT, or $50, were citizens Of Southern states
whose total white contribution was only
