COOLNESS.
Now that war has been declared,
it is to be hoped that the United
States will in all conscience rise to
a higher level of sanity than was
attained in the European nations
and that the harvest of lies and
invented atrocities will not be oan
tlied about to promote the hate amt
rancour of the people.
If a war must be entered upon,
it is no reason why the people'
should enter upon it wholly bereft
of saving common sense and that
there should be any necessity to
excite the people by the fanciful
stories of atrocious acts by an
■enemy which found such wanton cir
culation in all the belligerent na
tions.
The next best thing that can hap
pen is peace and the sooner it ar
rives the better. But in the carry
ing on of the war, we may help to
hasten the advent of the seL’entent
of the questions now at armed is
sue. by maintaining a sensible and
common sense policy of coolness.
Moreover, we may not lightly dis
regard the fact that among the
people of the United Stales are
many of German devent and with
strong ties knitting them to the
countries now at war with toe
United States. O’-ei such (dream
stances they at least have no control
and it would be well indeed if all
recognized thus fact. They are not
in any way responsible for those
gets which brought about the war
and the sympathies » Itich they hold
l.tr ilicit- native land is one that is
impossible to overcunc. in any
case.
To maintain the dignity of the
nation, it is scarcely necessary that
an effort should be made to depict
every enemy subject or German re
isident here as wholly evil and in
spired with the desire to desttoy
America. Nor is it necessary that
we must believe that every individ
ual German is one who has no
spark oi humane feelings within
Jiis hosont at uli.
It will sober excited feelings to
realize that there is very little
hostile sentiment inspiring the
breasts of those valiant ones who
are facing one another in the dread
ful struggle on the European con
tinent, and it 's at least one of the
surest signs of individual courage
am! national courage as well, that
even those who are opposed to us be
respected for thir acts in open and
honest opposition.
The more reason why this country
should set an example in this mat
ter to the world is by reason of the
very claims which America has set
up as the home of liberty and pro
gress and respect for individual
right. To give way to the vilest of
♦■motions that may choke reason and
drown commonsense would be an
unutterable evil. To vent one’s
mental anger afid verbal offensive
ness upon those who cannot resist
:md who have to suffer the dual
misery of personal feelings and
national loyalty would be unworth>
of any decent individual and wholly
unworthy the people of a great na
tion.
It is not to the credit of the
European nations that they rioted
in a very hotbed of invented atro
• cities upon the part of all belli
gerents, for it revealed the fact that
they had become terrorized by the
situation.
Certainly the United States can
^afford to keep cool and to carefully
weigh the facts that are presented
to It. It is a poor cause that has to
bolstered by fiction and falsehood
and the good end cannot justify
the vileness of the means.
This is not platitude. This is
meant with earnestness. The great
ness of a nation will be evidenced
in the spirit with which it faces a
*reat issue and there can be no
evading this. By the acts of the
people at this time will they here
after be judged. And the judgment
of posterity is everlasting. W’e
may believe that we live for the day
only—the narrower view, but what
is done today will be visited upon
our children and our children's
children and they who feel the con
sequence of the national acts will
also be its judges. That is at once
the cruelty and the steely justness
of the evolution of life and there
is no escape from i:.
If a man or a nation gives way
to fears and terrors and excited de
lusions, these, fraught always with
ignoble consequences, wrill most
certainly react on him and them,
and it lies therefore with every In
dividual to shape his course so that
with posterity it may «e well and
prideful, or evil and contemptful.
THE EVERETT TRIAL.
The state's case is now in, in the
Tracy trial, as everyone knows
which arises from the fatal fight
on Sunday November 5 when the
Verona endeavored to land indus
trialists in Everett.
The testimony ol the state go?f a
long way to prove that the whole
case was the culmination of the il
legal acts of the officials, oil.rials
who committed those illegalities,
in the face of the fact that they
were sworn tc uphold tlu constitu
tion and the laws.
This paper certainly agrees with
the witness for the de'ense that la
bor solidarity is more p-werful to
effect the ends of labor than viol
ence, and we have to s.iv that nine
times out of ten the violent methods
are adopted or reioriel to by those
who are commonly and wrongly
sunpesed to uphold law' and order.
The facts in Everett are direct
and forceful. They are now mat
ters of record, that men and women
w’ere beaten up, deported and viol
ently assailed and jailed is now
part of the state: testimony.
What other end could those
things really have than at the end
of the road there would lie a big
red splurge that would shock soeie
j ty and bring disaster of which the
state should be ashamed
, Tire failure of the officials, and
! especially Sheriff MacUae to enforce
the law's, and his willingness to le
sort to any illegal act to make
good with the Everett Commercial
Club, is the damnable cause of this
whole tragedy.
It makes no difference what the
verdict will he; it cannot change
this demonstrated fact, any more
than could the conviction of Law
son in Colorado have changed the
fact that the organized violence
of the coal barons in southern Colo
rado precipitated the tragedies ot
Ludlow and elsewhere.
When \ye recognize as true that
violence breeds violence, we may
not. except official illegalities and
violence. We must Include them as
one of the principle excitants ol
counter violence. It was so in the
beginning and it will be so in the
end.
In these labor struggles that
stir the country, it is evident thai
more and more violence is being
used in the suppression. The po
lice methods in Bayonne were no
better than the methods of the St.
Petersburg police on their Bloody
Sunday. They asnaultod without
regard to sex, age or condition and
carried out their methods of sum
mary suppression. There is only
one thing that will result from that
and It is a tragedy. It is written
all over history In letters of blood.
The whole human story is the vigor
ous record against oppression, sup
pression and official violence. The
person who fails to recognize that
is purblind and impervious to rea
son.
