Pi Inge coma, wan Ann | Vublished Dally by T exe! Blot Out This Infamous Law ALF of the voting population of the state failed to vote # Tuesday. It is not hard to understand why. Tt is due to the infamous election law to a very large ex- tent. You go to the polls and before you are allowed to vote, must tell the election officials what your party affiliation "is. "You must tell whether you are a republican, socialist, pro- @ressive or democrat. rf Tf you are independent, if you are the free American citizen | you pride yourself in being, you are denied a vote. The law does not allow you to be independent.’ The law makes you a Slave to party, or else you can't vote. | Thousands of voters in Washington—thousands in King county—are not party members. They want to vote for the best men in any party. Why should they have to tell anyone whether they’re republicans or democrats or bull moose or so cialis: Whose business is it, anyhow? And because they cannot vote unless they tell, they refuse to go to the polls at all in the primary election. The republican county and state platforms desire to make it even worse for the independent voter. A plank in these plat- forms declares that 4 law should be passed to require every man and woman to declare party affiliation at the time of registering. Such a law is abominable and shocking to free American- ism. It should not be tolerated by a free people for one moment. When the candidate for legislature gives you the glad hand and asks for your vote, ask him how he stands on the election law. Ask him whether he’s going to make you register what party you belong to. Ask him whether he'll do away with the party system in primary elections. Ask him if he favors a non-partisan law so that the independent voters can have a teal expression of their choice.

Villa Is Amazed EADING of what some of the armies are doing in Europe, Villa, the “bandit,” feels quite relieved. “The European war is a revelation to me,” he says True, Villa seized the lands of Terrazas—lands stolen from the peons—and restored it to the first owners. He levied for supplies on foreign squatters whom he passed.
