GEORGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher
The I. W. W, Fiasco
The spirit of intolerance now abroad in the land, as a
rifiritaorft of the war. is manifested not only in religious mat
ters, as witness its capitalization for political power by secret
societies, culminating in the effort to abolish church and
private schools, but is apparent also in social and political
matters, as witness the illegal suspension of constitutional
rights at Portland by the mayor and city officials, in the
wholesale arrests and imprisonment oi real ana supposea
members of the Industrial Workers of the World.
Several hundred strikers, workmen and floaters were
arrested on suspicion, thrown into jail, finger-printed fdr
future identification as criminals, and otherwise treated in
a shameful manner. The only crime of many of these vie
tims of official hysteria consisted in being poor and out of
work and in looking for employment. The absurd presump
tion that a few score of vagrants could overthrow either
federal, state or municipal government was the excuse given
for the installation of martial law.
Some of our politicians affect to believe that the country
is threatened with radicalism. Nothing is further from the
truth. As a matter of fact, the country is suffering trom an
overdose of reaction- We have not yet restored the even
balance which the shin of state maintained from its first
existence it still lists badly. During the war we attained
the heights of idealism as a people and since the war we have
srone as far the other way.
We hold no brief for the I. W. W. nor do we believe in or
countenance their philosophy of direct action but all history
proves that the surest way to perpetuate any doctrine is
by persecution and martyrdom. Force never yet supplanted
reason and when it does the republic will have run its course.
T
On the rights of humanity, for which the nation was
founded to preserve, Thomas Jefferson, in his first inaugural
address as president, speaking of the necessity for tolerance
and the preservation ot the rights of minorities, said :
Bear In mind thlH sacred principle, that though the will of the
majority Is In all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be
reasonable; that the minority possesses their equal rights, which
equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression. Let US;
thou, fellow citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us
restore to social Intercourse that harmony and affection without
which liberty and even life Itself are but dreary things. And let us
reflect that, having banished from our land that religious intolerance
under which mankind so long bled and suffered, we have yet gained
little If we countenance a political Intolerance as despotic, as wicked,
and capable of as bitter and bloody persecutions, ,
Yet today there is an organized effort to restore that
intolerance that the Fathers of the nation thought they had
banished a century and a half ago.
Jefferson defined as the necesities for the preservation of
liberty the diirusion of information and arraignment of all
abuses at the bar of public reason; freedom of religion; free
dom of press, and freedom of persons under the protection
of the habeas corpus and trial juries impartially selected."
These principles he said "form the britrht constellation which
has gone before us and guided our steps through an age of
revolution and reformation, The wisdom of our sages and
blood ot our heroes have been devoted to their attainment
They should be the creed of our political faith, the text of
civic instruction, the touchstone by which to try the services
of those we trust; and should we wander from them in
moments of error or alarm, let us hasten to retrace our steps
and to regain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty
and safety."
Probably no president was ever more bitterly assailed than
Thomas Jefferson, or more threatened, notwithstanding
which, he refused to take any action to curtail the freedom
of press or to resort to any form of coercion. He did not find
it necessasry to fill the jails with the traducers of govern
ment, firm in his belief that public opinion would in the long
run rally to the support of authority and the commonsense
of the people assert itself. He declared in his second
inaugural :
Nor was it .uninteresting to the world that an experiment should
be fairly and fully made, whether freedom of discussion, unaided by
power, Is not sufficient for the propagation and protection of truth
whether a government conducting itself In the true spirit of Us con
stitution, with iwU and purity, and doing no aot which it would be
unwilling the whole world should witness, can be written down by
falsehood and defamation. The experiment has been tried; you have
witnessed Ihe scene; our fellow-citlzcns looked on, cool and collected;
they saw the latest force from which these outrages proceeded; they
gathered around their public functionaries, and when the constitu
tion railed them to the decision by suffrage, they pronounced tholr
verdict, honorable to those who had served them and consolatory to
the friend of man who believes that he may be trusted with the
control of his owu affairs.
No more restraint or censorship is needed todav than in
Jefferson's day. Whatever the exigencies of war may have
.necessitated, coercion is no longer necessary. The rights
ot me minority and the rights ot the individual are again of
paramount importance to the preservation of the nation
The truth in any political theory cannot be extinguished by
oppression, and any theory that cannot survive open dis
cussion is aoomea. As jeuerson concludes:
The, experiment la noted to prove that, since truth and reason
have maintained their ground against false opinions in league with
rtilo facts, the press, confined to truth, needs no legal restraint;
the public judgment will correct false reasoning and opinions on
a full hearing ot all parties; and no other definite line can be drawn
between the Inestimable liberty ot pross and its demoralising
licentiousness. It there be etiU Improprieties which this rule would
not restrain, its supplement must be sought in the censorship of pub
lic opinion. ...

Phil's Confession
"What' a moss I made of it by
advising Sheila never to tell Phil
her story," I murmured distractedly
half aloud. Then openly I added.
"Why did I not tell Sheila to tell
you the whole story Philf Why did
I not insist that you should bo toldt
All this trouble would have then
been averted." -
"I can fareive you for that.
Kay," said Phil, comprehendingly
"For whatever else has come to me.
my marriage with Sheila has given
me a few months of the greatest
blisa that any man has ever
known."
"Then you would not have mar
ried Sheila if she had told you the
storyt"
"How could I if she told me the
truth! She would have to have told
me that she did not love me."
"What are you talking about
Phillip Spencerf"
"Kay, deur, you must know that
when Susanne sent for me she told
me that she had at first believed
that Sheila was the adventuress
that her father had arrested, Su
sanno fully agreed that the only
way to savo her brother from her
was to send him away as her father
had done.
'I hated to tell you this Su-
sanne told mo 'and while I was de
bating how to break to you this
news. I found somothing among my
father's papers that proved that
whatever Sheila had been, she
might havo really loved my brothert
and that my father (God forgive
him) had hatched up the accusation
against her to prevent her from
marrying Walter.
"That Kay, was the night I came
homo lirnl insisted upon fchoi!la
marrying mo immediately. That
was niy monumental mistake. In
my selfish" egotism, I could not
think otherwise than that my groat
love would begin greater love. Al
though Sheila had not been very
demonstrative, I was sure that she
reciprocated that she loved me as
I loved her.
"It seemed to me that night, al
though nothing was said, that she
must know that I knew her story."
Phil broke off abruptly as thougli
he were waiting for me to say some
thing, but I was turned to stone.
I had comprehended only one
thing in all this story. My brother
Phil knew Sheila's sad story before
he marriod her and his answer to
it was his insistence upon immed
iate marriage.
"Oh, Catherine, no one was ever
as happy as I," continued Phil. "No
one ever knew such bliss as I knew
for the timo that Shoila and I were
away after we were married and
for a few months after we returned.
"Then ono day Susanna sent for
me and although I told her that no
thing she could say would change
me in any particular and that from
thenceforth she and I must be
strangers, she said that she had ab
solute proof that my wife still lov
ed her brothcr-that she had been
in communication with him since
our marriage. She told me that she
thought I. ought to know that her
brother was on his way home to
claim Sheila, that he had written
that he would take her though all
the world stood in his way.
"Susanno showed me a letter from
Walter in which he said ho had
just received a letter from Sheila
that was the most loving and en
dearing that had ever been written
to any man and he begged het Su
sanne to go to Sheila and tell her
that he was coming back immed-

" 'Of eourse,' said Susanne, 'un
der the circumstances, PhU, I can
not go to your wife, but I thought,
perhaps, that you might tell her
and maike some arrangements to
give an unloving wife to the man
she really loves.'" '
"Oh, Phil," I .broke in, "why did
you not go to Sheila at that time
and ask her to. explain all this to
you f" ' ' -
''Because I loved her, because I
knew I could not live without her.
It seemed to me, Kay, that I saw in
Sheila signs of the truth of what
Susanne told me. You surely will
agree that Sheila began about this
tirne to withdraw within . herself.
And then I must tell you that once,
just after we were married, Sheila
offered to tell me the whole story
of why she first refused my love.
"At that time, thinking I knew
it all and hoping to save her pain,
I rofused to listen. I told her I was
satisfied to let the past stay bur
ied." "Oh, Phil, Phil, did you not real
ize that it was not the dead past,
but the torturing present and the
despairing future that Sheila was
trying to tell you about!"; '
"Don't Kay, don't upbraJd'me. I

"p' think then I went mad. ,?J"
"For the firstttime I really began
to believe all that Susanne had been
telling me. I watched her closely

98 Out of Every 100 Women
Benefited
An Absolutely Reliable Statement
Important to Every Woman
Remarkable Results Shown by a Nation
Wide Canvass of Women Purchasers of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
5U,UUU women Answer
For some time a circular has been
enclosed with each bottle of our
medicine bearing this question:
"Have you received benefit from
taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound?"
Replies, to date, have been re
ceived from over 50,000 women
answering that question.
93 per cent of which say YES.
That means that 98 out of every
100 women who take the medi
cine for the ailments for which
it is recommended are benefited
by it
This is a most remarkable record
of efficiency. We doubt if any
other medicine in the world
equals it.
Think of it only two women
out of 100 received no benefit
98 successes out erf a possible 100.
Did you ever hear of anything
like it? We must admit that
we, ourselves, are astonished.
Such evidence should induce every woman suffering from
anv ailment neculiar tn hr st tn trv I .wii a F Pinlrham'i
Vegetable Compound and see if she can't be one of the 98
!. LIU1A L. rliNivrlAM MEDICINE CO., Lynn, Mass.
Of course we know that our med
icine does benefit the large major
ity of women who take it. But
that only two out of 100 received
no benefit is most astonishing.
It only goes to prove, however,
that a medicine specialized for
certain definite ailments not a
cure all one that is made by the
most scientific process; not from
drugs, but from a combination
of nature's roots and herbs, can
and does do more good than
hastily prepared prescriptions.
You see, we have been making,
improvingand refiningthis med
icine for over 50 years until it is
so perfect and so well adapted to
women's needs that it actually
has the virtue to benefit 98 out of
every 100 women who take it.
It's reliability and recognized
efficiency has gained for it a sale
in almost every country in the
world leading all others.
