WE ARE HOPEFUL.

Will Seattle, the ensuing year, maintain
her high standard of industrial activity
Is quite the question of the hour among
business men of this community in par
tlcular as we'll as business men Of the
country IN general and even across the
water into the Orient Rumor has it that
the most of the shipyards of the city will
practically, if not wholly shut down early
in this year, thus throwing thousands of
men out OF employment, who on not be-
ing able to find lucrative employment in
the city, will seek pastures more green
1t the shipyard industry is crippled that
of course will cripple great many minor
and dependent industries, which will be
responsible for many more wage earners
being thrown out of employment If all
this happens in the industrial circles of
the city then there will be a like demoral-
ization in the commercial circles of the
city, which, under the circumstances would
prevent Seattle from maintaining it's past
high standing Of industrial activity Per-
haps none of this will happen, let's hope
for the good of all concerned they will
not, at least as extensively as rumor has
it they will Multiplied millions of dol
lars are tied up in the shipyards of the
city and their subsidiary industries and
we are of :the opinion those persons most
interested will make an effort to held
them together The foreign and Alaska
trade will of course continue just as good
as in the past and that of itself means
much for Seattle. Taking it all in all we
firmly believe that things will move on in
Seattle during the year Of our Lord 1920
just as encouragingly as they did in 1919,
and so here goes for another year Of hum
and hurry.

OLD BOOZE MUST GO.

Good bye old Booze, you had to lose,
because you got the grip for giving men
the slip, to wander all the night in order
to get "tight." Your day is done your
time has come, to meet your fate so don't
be late. Old Booze is dead, he lost his
head, when the voters ak was told the
facts, and to hell he III run, which is no
fun, for stuff that burns in heated urns
The doom you face will end your race and
leave at rest the angels guests. You took
mems lives and robbed their wives, the
children's banks oft turned your cranks.
and paved your floors with golden "chores, ;,
so to hell you 60 and don't be slow. Old
Booze was hung on Heavens rung, where
the Angel Right made his flight, to the
pearaly gates where Justice waits You
hid your kids and called for bids, in case
the courts gave you the forts, but now you
are gone to the great beyond sleep in
peace without any "greece. But when
return to terra frma. l trust you'll be
a hickory tree and funish nuts for child
ren's CUTS, instead Of booze and foamjng
ooze, for such as wander through the night
in order to get tight. Old Booze is dead
from voting lead and will be buried late
on January eight

SEDITION AMONG NEGROES

We have a copy of the report of the De-
partment Of Justice on "Radicalism and
Sedition Among the Negroes as Reflected
in Their Publications.. The report occu-
pies twenty-seven pages of the report of the
investigation against 'Persons Advising An
archy, Sedition, and the Forcible Over
throw of the Government
The pages devoted to the Negro came at
the end Of the report; and, judging from
what was the evident purpose of the re-
port, these pages make the most ludicrous
anticlimax that could be imagined We
don't know how good a case the report
makes out against the people discussed in
the first one hundred and sixty pages, for
we have not yet had the time to read that
portion; but we are prepared to say that
if it doesn't make out a better case than
it makes out against the Negro, the De-
partment Of Justice has wasted good
deal of time and a considerable amount of
Uncle Sam s cash.
If any jury Of fair-minded persons can
find in the twenty-seven pages devoted to
the Negro anything which justifes those
pages being made part Of report against
"persons advising anarchy, sedition, and the
forcible overthrow of the Government, " the
writer will agree to eat bundle Of these
reports without taking water.
Whoever got out the report filled it with
extracts of both prose and poetry from the
radical Negro press. But what do all of
these extracts amount to when boiled
down? They amount to a demand not for
anarchy, not for the overthrow of the Gov
ernment, but to demand for the strict and
impartial enforcement Of law, and to an
expression Of the determination of the
Negro to defend himself when and where
the law refuses or fails to protect him
against the mob. Indeed, the main note
running through all the quotations from
the Negro publications mentioned in the
report is a demand for law and order, but
law ano order based on the recognition Of
the equal rights of every American citizen.
Of course, the chief thing in these radical
periodicals on which the accusing finger
rests is the open or implied endorsement Of
the action of Negroes who in the recent
Grace rots'' defended themselves and pro-
tected their homes against the mobs be-
cause the law refused or failed to protect
them. Well, what about it? Can any
sane man say that these Negroes did not
act within their legal and moral rights
More than that, can any sane man say that
these Negroes did not perform what was
their obvious duty? Will any white man
say that white men would not have been
expected to act likewise under like condi-
tions?
Let those who are holding up their
hands in holy horror at the mere thought
of lawlessness on the part of Negroes stop

In August of the present year 1913 crates

watches arrived in Marseilles from the

ments of the kind, and Swiss watch and

breaks were Negroes the original aggress.
ors. All of the Grace riots" which oc-
Cured last summer were started by law
less white men. Then let the holy horror
against lawlessness be directed against
white mobbsts and not against Negroes
defending their lives and their homes when
the law shows itself unable or unwilling to
do so.
There are gentle friends of the Negro
who greatly deplore any indication on his
part to oppose with physical force mob
feel that it will arouse still more bitter
sentiment against himself, and what is
worse, great many Of them might get
killed. for he is so far outnumbered. These
friends should not expect the Negro to
submit to wholesale murder for the sake of
increasing his reputation for gentleness and
patience if they do, they are expecting too
much from the present-day Negro. AS
for getting killed-that does not strike
much terror to the heart of the Negro now;
thousands of Negroes died in France for
what has been for them a dream, if not
lie so the thought Of dying in defense Of
their own lives and property does not i'm
part any great dread; they reason that if
they are threatened with death by whole
sale murder, it is better to meet it by
facing the mob than to meet it by being
shot in the back while running or by
having their houses burned down over
their heads.
Let little of this investigation into law.
lessness and this indignation against law
lessness be directed against the degenerate
blood-lusting white men who make up the
mobs to whom the lynching and numbering
OF Negroes is a pastime, Roman holiday
sport.
If the Department of Justice wants to do
job OF investigating worth doing, let it
not stop at the open and just discomfort
expressed in the Negro press over the
wrongs and injustices suffered by black
American citizens let it get at the grounds
and reason for that discomfort. And if it
wants any assistance on the job, the Negro
press will gladly give it.
AS it is, the Department has done only
about one-third of what it ought to do. The
third that it has done makes out no case
Of ''sedition' against the Negro it simply
shows that the Negro has just grounds for
complaint at his treatment in this country,
and has sense enough to know it and sense
enough to say it in Clear intelligent and
forcibe way. Indeed, it seems that this
latter is what shocks the writer of the
report more than anything else. He is
man who has evidently, ike many Others
been asleep on the Negro; he has been
thinking Of the Negro in terms of twenty
or thirty yearas ago; all at once he is
called on to read number Of Negro pub
lications and he is amazed, overwhelmed
dumbfounded to find that the Negro knows
what he wants.
But, after all, this report of the Depart
ment of Justice is not so bad So far as
we know, it is the most effective step yet
taken to let the whole country know Just
what the Negro is discontented about, to
let it know what the Negro of to lay is
thinking. The American Negro could wish
for nothing better than that the Depart.
ment Of Justice would put copy of this
report in the hands Of every man, woman
and child in the United States-New York
