The Seattle Star ‘By mall, ont of ag AS The Constitutional Amendments Three constitutional amendments nope on the ballot for consideration of the voters next Tuesday. All are simple measures, all of them fairly important but none of controversial interest. : ‘The first provides that the trial of a person accused of a public offense committed on a train or other public conveyance may be held in any county thu which the ‘conveyance may pass. This, in the opinion of most at- torneys, will lead to justice being done in a greater num- ber of cases, The second provides that payments from state appro- tions shall be made within one calendar month after end of the next ensuing fiscal biennium. The third increases the pay of legislators from $5 to $10 a day. It ought to increase the stipend to $50 a day; then we might have a higher quality of men seeking of- However, the measure as it stands is a step toward ‘ three amendments deserve a “yes” vote.

The other half of the sermon he left unsaid. We'll try to say it for him. : : What he said about the “duty of labor” applies with = force and with equal reason to the employers of | There are as many destructive captains of industry as ‘there are destructive captains of labor. There are in- numerable instances of lock-outs, or disastrous strikes deliberately brought about by special interests for politi- other purposes of their own—strikes which caused “hard times” and suffering thruout the country. There are as many radical capitalists as there are radi- labor leaders, capitalists who “agitate” among power- industrials to beat down wages, boost prices and con- ving way to law and reason,” what : who hire armed thugs and gun- ” in their communities? as bond!” “Loyalty to humanity!” What piety! And those who heard the attorney things back in Ohio claim he actually Pawnbrokers’ Patriotism The supreme court of Olympia has sustained Seattle's refusal of a pawnbroker’s license to one Asakura, Japa- Nese, Justice Mackintosh writing thus: . “Pawnbroking is a privilege, not an inherent right, and therefore it should be confined to such persons as may ly be supposed to have a full sense of responsi- to their country and a desire for its welfare.” patriotism as a qualification for pawnbrokers to us like a new note in jurisprudence and it may have national, even international importance, since about all of Europe is in the pawnbrokers’ hands or threatening to go there. Repeated experience with pawnbrokers hasn’t yet, so far as we have observed, divulged any signs of responsi- bility to country or hot desire for its welfare but rather a tious and exclusive desire for 20 per cent in- terest per month. Maybe what's ailin’ our economics is lack of patriotism in our pawnbrokers, and the supreme court does well to call our attention to it. : ‘The : troops (Americans In Germany) are very well satisfied. One offl- a cer expressed it in this way, that the only way to get an American sol- dier away was to drive him onto the train at the point of the bayonet — Representative Tilson (R.), Conn. Every man I have over seen has at least one secret process (for mak- Ing fertilizer) and sometimes two or three—Hugh L. Cooper, consulting engineer, before senate committee on agriculture and forestry. A stitch in time saves two socks, , Tripping Up Lloyd George The Turks are certainly clever. They have tripped up Lloyd George. In a recent speech he said the Turks murdered a mil- lion and a half Armenians. To which Mustapha Pasha’s representative, Ferid Bey, triumphantly replies that there were only 1,170,000 Armenians in the first place and moreover 152,000 “have been accounted for.” So there! He volunteers no information about the remaining 1,020,000, but admits that there were “regret- table occurrences.” A million people strangely missing! In citing this “re- grettable occurrence” the Turks sure did come back strong at George! We bet he’s sorry he ever brought up such a trivial incident! “The prettiest woman in Montana” has murdered “the most distin. guished minister in Montana,” makin’ an end to a love-pact, both bein’ married. If this killin’ of ministers keeps up, it behooves every man to examine his love-pact for weak spots. Young Rockefeller vigorously and publicly condemns the 12-hour work- @ny. He's right about it.
