Phome Main 0400 MINOR’S REMARKABLE WAR SKETCHES ERHAPS our readers will pardon us ‘for edi- torially calling their attention to the remark- able sketches which the great cartoonist, Robert Minor, is contributing to The Star from the battle- fields and battle towns of France and Flanders. These pictures in charcoal, made on the spot, are simply unapproachable in depicting, with sun- lit clearness the terrors and infamies of the war The sketch, for example, entitled “The Flight,” tho it contains but a few terror stricken figures of man and beast, more than equals a thousand folios of the photographic reproductions to be found in the war supplements of the Sunday papers. And the sketches of the old French peas- ant mother “Finding Hers” in the extended grave- rd of the Marne, and the little children return- ing to their “home” after the hell-beast of war has passed over it, held a human thrill which no photograph could possibly contain. We make no pretense to a knowledge of pic- ture criticism, and are not adepts in technique or other artistic details. And we think most people cannot truthfully make the claim either. But the picture or sketch that holds you; that talks to you; —AND IWERE I WAS, UP AGAINST THE BUNKERS ‘You SEE, THAT WAS BETWEEN THE THIRD AND FOURTH HOLS, SO IN ORDER TO MAKE THE DRivE, l —— : STAR—SATURDAY, that not only suggests the subject it deals with, but an infinite number of other suggestions behind it, these pictures exist for all normal persons who have aver imagination and intelligence. Minor is now supplying The Star with pic- tures of this kind. They are not all equally im- pressive, of course; no artist's work is ever even in that respect. But some of them literally leap at you and hold you, despite the fact that they are materially no more than charcoal marks on com- mon press paper. While Verestchagin could obtain the same result with carefully painted scenes of actual battle, Minor attains it without any attempt at the reproduction of literal murder, dealing only with the things that go before or come after, But they tell the grisly story quite as adequately, and, perhaps, more so, We strongly advise our readers to preserve reproduction of these sketches, for we are of opinion that the originals will win a high place themselves in the future, when the work of the artist comes to be summed up as a factor in the abolition of war, “the sum of all human vil- lainies.”’ the the for THE AVERAGE surgical operation is generally suc- cessful i. removing the patient's bank balance. WELL,WeLL WELL, SO DEC, 4, 1915 PAGE 4, PARTISANSHIP IN PORT ELECTION HE Municipal league committee which reported on candidates said Robert F, Booth, supported by Seattle’s two kept newspapers, is the candidate of the railroads. The chairman ofthe committee is a republi- can, To this man later went W. M. Whitney, re publican county chairman, who heatedly declared Booth should have been indorsed because he was a republican, and because the chairman of the com- mittee was also a republican. Whitney was quite worked up about it. And this in a supposedly non-partisan elec- tion, for a non-partisan office. Thank heaven, most people have seen the light. The sort of politics the young Mr. Whitney is trying to learn has long since gone out of fashion.

We don’t suppose that poetic license will let us work in “tomatto,” “tomawto” at the end of a line of the verse, now and then, and, for the life of us, we can’t figure out how to use “potato” all we like, without giving “tomato”? unseemly con- picuity. However, we heartily favor the more liberal introduction of potatoes and other vegetables into poetry and song. There's’ a whole lot of fine sen- timent in potatoes, carrots, even onions, that’s been totally neglected. or WHAT'S BECOME of the fellow who used to sere- nade his best girl with his guitar and keep the neighbors awake?
