The residents of Coblenz and other

that eventually, at the reauest of the
authorities, notices were published in
the German newspapers , explaining
that no German mail was being re

THE SEATTLE
THE Seattle strike marks the initial effort of tluv ex
treme radienls to stage . -social revolution along
Bolshevik lines in America. The strikers have no real
grievance, the vast majority even no pretense of a griev
ance, but are blindly following, they know not where, the
leadership of a group of foreign born anarchists who have
secured control of the ship builders' unions and labor
council, and planned a general strike for the avowed pur
pose of upsetting the government and seizing control of
industry, in order that the United States may become a
second Russia, with lied control written in redder blood,
flying the red flag of anarchy. .
The Bolshevik character of the strike is shown by the
seditums utterances of the strike loaders, by tho disloy
alty, they have public paraded, and by the inf Initiatory
character of the literature they are distributing among
the strikers. We quote the following poster picked up on
the streets of Seattle by a Medford man this week. ;
RUSSIA DID IT
Shipyard Workers You left tho shipyards to enforce your demands
tor higher wages. Without you your employers are helpless. Without you
they cannot make one cent ol profit their whole system ot robbery has
collapsed.
Tho shipyards are Idle; the tollers havo withdrawn even tho the own
ers of the yatds are still there. Are your masters building ships? No.
Without your labor power It would take all the shipyard employers of
Sonitle and Tacoma working eight hours a day the next thousand years
to turn out one ship.;, Of what use are they In the shipyards?
It is vnn anri vml nlnna who htlUrl the shins: Votl create all the wenlth
of society today; you make possible the $75,000 sable coals for million
aire's wives. It Is you alone who can build the ships.
They can t build tho ships, iou can. why don t you?
There are the shipyards: more ships are urgently needed: you alone
can build them. If the masters continue their dog-ln-the-mauger atti
tude, not able to build the ships themselves and not allowing the wor
kers to. there is only one thing left for you to do.
Take over the management of the shipyards yourselves; make the
shipyards your own: make the jobs your own: decide the working condi
tions yourselves; decide your wages
In Russia the masters refused to
The Russian workers put aside the bosses and their tool, the Russian gov.
ernment, and took over industry In tueir own interests. i
There is only one way out; a nation-wide general strike with its ob
ject the overthrow" of the present rotten system which produces thousands
of millionaires and millions of paupers each year.
The Russians have shown you the way out. . What are you going to
do about it? You are doomed to wage slavory till you die unless you
wake up, realise that you and the boss have not one thing in common,
that the employing class must be overthrown, and that you, the workers,
must take over the control of your jobs, and thru them, the control over
your lives instead ot offering yourselves up to the masters as a sacrifice
six days a week, so that they may coin profits out of your sweat and toil.
Russia has indeed "shown the way," the way to mas
sacre, famine and anarchy, the establishment and main
tainence by bloodshed of a tyranny more terrible than
ever czar perpetrated and native Americans have no de
sire to follow such leadership whatever inay be the hopes
of the foreign born.
The Seattle strike is due directly to the negligent im
migration policy of the country that makes America the
refuge and asylum of anarchists and assassins of all lands;
to the abuse of American laws of free speech that permit
every street comer and park of the great cities to become
a soap-box pulpit for preaching class hatred and sedition;
and that permits the perversion of a free press by the pub
lication and circulation of such inflammatory and disloyal
appeals as that above printed. " - 4 .
If we are going to stop the spread of Bolshcvikisnt in
America, the first step must be the arrest and deportation
or imprisonment of thoscadvocating revolution. A con
spiracy to create a general strike like that in Seattle, for
the purpose of creating revolution and destroying the
government is nothing more nor less than treason and
those guilty of it, should receive the punishment reserved
for traitors. -
The Farm Bureau What It Does
' A County Farm Bureau is an asso
ciation of farmers and farmers wives
which has for its purpose the devel
opment of the most profitable and
permanent system ot agriculture and
the most wholesome and progressive
home and community life. There are
more than 800 such farm bureaus in
the 33 northern and western states
having a total membership of nearly
half a million farmers.
Differs From Other Organizations
The Farm Bureau is a non-secret
and non-political organization. It has
no "local" or community branch. It
does not therefore compete with or
take the place of existing organiza
tions but cooperates with all willing
to cooperate. The members attend
community and county-wide meetings
not regularly but only when there Is
a special need for such meetings. It
receives special assistance from the
county agricultural agent, the home
demonstration agent and the commu
nity club leader because it is recog
nized as the county organization thru
which the state and federal govern
ment carries on ail extension work
in agriculture and home economics.
Works Through Committees
,. The Farm Bureau decides - upon
definite community and county prob
lems which need Us attention and
outlines construction programs of
work and alms to do Its work and
serve the people thru committees.
It hag no unnecessary machinery.
There is only one committeeman on
each committee for each main defin
ite, line of work to he undertaken.
The committees are kept as small as
possible and no member Is placed oh
any committee until there is a piece
of work that should be done. If the
committee is already large the work
is assigned to some one already on
the committee.
The most Important committees
are as follows:
No. 1. A community committee
of from 1 to 8 men and women each
of whom serves as leader of some
community activity or project Includ
ed. In the community program of
work. . .
iXo. 2. . A county executive com
mittee of 15 members including' the

president, vice-president and secre
tary-treasurer ot the Farm Bureau.
Each person on the executive com
mittee including the officers, serves
as a county leader of some major part
of the'eounty program of work.
No. 3. County project committees
consisting of the project lcador on
the executive committee and the cor
responding leaders of various com
munity committees who are promot
ing some line of work such as rodent
control.
; : Membership
. Any family Interested in rural pro
gress may join by paying membership
fee of (1. This entitles all adult
members of the family to member
ship privileges including right to
vote. ; It also pays for a year's sub
scription to the Farm Bureau News.
All Farm Buroau funds are expended
upon approval of executive commit
tees and treasurer will give complete
report to members at annual meet
ing. Join the Farm Bureau not only
for what it may do for you, but for
what you can do thru it for jrour com
munity.
