By . re : _ Alien Enemy Within Our Gates The government of the United States has properly placed iron-clad restrictions about the alien enemy within our borders. Many of these live in Seattle. Their lot, it may be fairly presumed, is not a happy The alien enemy, therefore, who wishes to avoid - trouble, has his duties cut out. for him very plainly. He must register promptly. He must harbor no secrets about himself. If he sm frankly with the United States gov- ernment, he will get a square deal. He will not be perse- But if he fails to play absolutely square with the gov- ernment, if he is not candid and frank in his registration in his conduct and movements, he will feel the iron of Uncle Sam. Like Caesar’s wife, he must be strictly above suspicion. And it practically lies within his own power to determine whether he shall continue to live in Seattle or be interned.

Her war strength still be as high as some unbiased authorities say it is. may be able to raise an eighth war loan in December. 7 But it is indisputable that she has, practically, gone without foreign trade for over three years; that one-sixth her war loans has to go as interest on preceding loans; imperial income; that her mark has so depreciated that nearest neighbors decline it; and that, even within her confines, some of her mortgage bank bonds are selling | the imperial bonds. _ There is no people on earth, save one “kultured” into ‘going it blind, that would or could stand for such business financial conditions, even in e times.

Evidently, Northcliffe studied us thoroly during his it sojourn of months in our midst. History shows that in all his wars Uncle Sam has been slow to start but that, once agoing, he’s much like one of those British “tanks.” This characteristic is one of the natural characteristics of a democracy.

The British advance has been made with tanks serving instead of artillery to break the German barbed wire defenses. No preliminary bombardment of the enemy's position was undertaken sufficiently far in advance of the attack to give the enemy time to prepare his resisting methods. Instead of the uprooting barrage, tanks cleared the path for the infantry.

Artillery always has been the advance agent of the infantry. Sometimes the preliminary booming has continued for more than a week, and always for several days. Thus the enemy has been given ample warning of the direction from which the attack was impending. But Haig apparently did not loosen his artillery days in advance of the present attack. The emphasis in the British official report is placed on the fact that the enemy was completely surprised. No such surprise has ever overtaken the Ger- mans on the Western front since the battle of the at Buffalo, ist on remaining Just clay. “WE ARE all of the same clay,” said Woodrow | ONE OF the funny things in this war is that See Yep! with a» sprinkling of pacifists, who HE DOLLS’ TEA PARTY—That annual event of such great importance to the children, will be held Saturday, November 24th. Invitation tickets are now being given out.—Second Floor, Marne. They have always known beforehand when any major attack was preparing. Today, however, it has been demonstrated that a surprise attack can be undertaken along a huge front with great success. The German air service even can be fooled. If the Germans are unable to discover the direc- iz tion of attacks in advance, their fighting efficiency must suffer an immense decline. The allied superior- ity in man-power and munitions will then play their real part in the war,*for the Germans have not i enough men to concentrate everywhere at once. | Should Von Hindenburg, therefore, fail to invent ff new measures to guard against surprise offensives, ff the possibilities of Haig’s novel tactics are limitless. §f 4 * retary Tumulty thinks it necessary to publicly deny | that he’s in jail for treason. ifth Floor.” ‘Fraser-PatersonCo.| Butterick Patteras Wome $15.0 Splendid Values ! .
