Intelligent. Taking for granted that this princi
pie was followed, we are justified in asserting
that great minds will meet great minds, and
that there shall be scnaethlng dcis£. However,
it has anrsTs ht«a teas, rat cothteg etrisgc
has cfer happened. Therefore we most conclude
that great minds will meet, have a chewing
match or two. pass a few regulations to enlarge
cur statute books, adjourn to meet again and
repeat the same old game—pilitica. Bnt noth
ing can he done because it is the law and there
u no use trying to fool with the law. It is the
law because great minds have said so. and there
von are.
\ba$e of the submarine by Germany is no
reason why it should be discarded as a war ves-.
jLel. Brilliant exploits strictly in accord with
the rules of war were performed by the Ger
mans off Heligoland, when the U-boat 29 sank
three British battleships. By the British in
the Dardanelles and by the Italians in the Adri
latte sea. If we abolish implements of war be
cause the Germans have abused them, we shall
et back to clubs, while the nations which do
~o5 accept our rules will use the things we dis
ard The wisest thing to do would be to even
improve or. all implement of war but to use
•hem to prevent war and not war on others.
- me one has said that the German kaiser
had been but a mere tool in the war. If such
e. - the case, the Crown Prince must have been
but a monkey—wrench.
The demand for proxy marriage of girls in

THE TEST AND ITS END
The strike at Seattle was a test of American
ism: and Americanism won. It was because
< me "I can ism stands first of all for order and
r law based on equal rights.
It was a sympathetic strike and it failed be
e..u-e It commanded . for it deserved no general
sympathy.
?t was a procured strike, conceived in the api
it of rebellion and anarchy by false leaders of
■veH-m aning men. The iniquity of it lays lar
- in the assumption that the public interest
w?s entitled to no consideration in the face of
-• interest of a single class. Therefore labor

l-tuu! demand upon the mayor of Seattle that

It was.
