In Washington the atate authorities have taken rigorous hold on the I. W. W. problem. They have taken a military grip on the situation and have made the leaders, pending the threatened three-state r trike, virtually pr soners of war. It is a new move and the outcome of it may be some- wh..l a matter of conjecture. It has been the apparent hope that the influence of the Industrial Work ers of the World, as potential to the BerioLS disturbances of industry was rig igible. By the utterances of the literature and the street speaking representatives of this organization it stands indicted in the public judgment as an outlaw. Its stock in trade has been vicious abuse of all law, of all existing institutions, of all religion, of every thing that makes for social stability. To have accepted the organization at its word, as expressed by these agencies, should have meant its sup pression as a seditious influence even in time i f peace. It seems to have been the general belief that there was too much common sense ai d sound principle in the great body of American citizenship to give any serious force and effect to the violent mouthing« and the trouble making labors of the I. W. W. leaders and agents. If, however this organization be- gins to show the power its leaders claim for it, there should be r.o hes itancy to deal with it as its outlaw protestation deserves. The time is here when we should cease to be len ient with enemies within; and aboye all, it will not do to equivocate with them as if we were afraid of the dam age they might do. MARRIAGE ALONE IS NOT DRAFT EXCUSE Wilson Not Expected To Modify Rigid Rulings Made By the War Office. Washington, Aug. 21 —If there is to be anj' modificatien of the present rigid rulings of the provost marshal general regarding exemptions of married men from draft, it is known only to Presi dent Wilson, who ali.ne has authority to alter or modify those regulations. The war departmerit so far, basing its rulings on what it interprets as the intention of congress in passing the draft law, has gone on the theory that a man's exemption was based on a con dition of dependency, rather than on the mere condition of marriage. The department still holds to that view and will urge it upon the president. Today there was no intimation from any official source that the president intends to modify the rulli gs of the war office. TkeSptciesú Warning!
