PROFIT BY VOI ROPPORTUNITY
The agricultural and Industrialmasses of Washington have in thepast suffered much from a hostilereactionary supreme court. The ma-jority in the present court handeddown a decision in the St. Germaincase, a decision declaring picketingunconstitutional, contrary to the ex-pressed will of the people. Younow have an opportunity to rectifythat wrong.
Vote on November 5 for Wm. H.Pemberton, W. 0. Chapman and JohnH. Mitchell for justices of the su-preme court, (5-year term. By do-ing this you will put men on thesupreme bench who are learned, justand progressive?men who will notturn down the will of the people asexpressed in a referendum.
Vote also for Justice Kenneth Mc-intosh for the 4-year term and Jus-tice Warren W. Tolman for the two-year term. These two justices havealready been elected by a majorityof all votes cast at the primaries,but pile up a big vote for them as amark of appreciation.
HE STANDS WITHWOODROW WILSON
There are few men in the UnitedStates who do not stand back ofWoodrow Wilson in his prosecutionof the war for the liberties of allmankind. He stands the embodimentof the loftiest ideal. Nothing shouldbe left undone to strengthen Wilson'shands. In his speech to the UnitedStates senate, on September 30, urg-ing the passage of the woman suf-rage bill the President said:
"The executive tasks of this great
war rest upon me. I ask that youlighten them and place in my handsinstruments, spiritual instruments,which I do not now possess, which Isorely need and which I have dailyto apologize for not being able toemploy."
The election of Joseph A. Sloan toCongress from this district willstrengthen the hands of the Presi-dent. Let Mr. Sloan speak forhimself, none can do better:
"I am whole heartedly in sym-pathy with President Woodrow Wil-son and his humanitarian policiesand accept without reservation hisleadership. 'As a man thinketh inhis heart, so is he.'
"Now, as never before, we mustanalyze and search into the heartsof men. It is inconceivable tothink or expect that any but menlong known to have been right?menwith a keen sense of justice?for-ward-looking men who fundamental-ly believe in Democracy and Hu-manity?can serve in the reconstruc-tion of our social, economic and in-dustrial organization.
"The civilized world is looking to- jday to America under the leader-ship of President Woodrow Wilson.
Never in the history of the worldhas any nation assumed such graveresponsibility or had such opportun-ity to lender service to Humanity.
"As Americans we have a great
task before us, and as we measureup in the performance of our duty,so will civilization be influenced.
"I Am For?Government-owned-and-controlled merchant marine.
?Continued contiol and operation ofrailroads and other public utilities.
?Ratification of constitutional pro-hibition amendment.

CHILD LABOR LAWTHAT WILL STAND
Many humane and progressivemembers of the House of Represent-atives are considering a new childlabor law, which they hope to passin the present congress, a law thatwill stand against the assualts ofthe reactionary Supreme Court.
Two plans are being considered.One of them is to tax the productsof child labor so heavily that theirsale outside of the state where man-ufactured would be impossible. Theother is the passage of a law underthe war power of the government.
The President is anxious to takechildren out of industry and willsupport any measure to that endwhich will bar nullification by theSupreme Court and will settle thequestion finitely.
It is unfortunate for the peopleof this country that they have a Su-preme Court which lives and acts inan age which knew nothing of thepresent-day conditions, a court whichfounds its decisions on precedent andalmost invariably favoring privilege.
The majority of the Supreme Courtis of the above class and rather thanabandon obsolete precedents andstates rights (almost obsolete) itwould enslave growing children andserve the greed of inhuman, con-scienceless profiteers. Let us hopethe day will soon come when thisautocratic fifth wheel to the demo-cratic wagon will have the arbi-trary spokes knocked out of it.

WHAT IS "SPANISH INRUENZA""THREE-DAY FEVER." "THE FLU"
(From the Office of Surgeon-General
TUX L \ 808 JOURNAL
Rupert Blue i
What is Spanish Influenza* ll H
something new? Does it come fromSpain ?
The disease now occurring in thiscountry and called "Spanish Influ-enza" re*cm h :es a very contagiouskind of "cold" accompanied by fever,pains in the head. eye*, ear*, back orother part* of the body, and a feel-ing of severe sicknes* In most ofthe case* the symptom* disappearafter three or four days, the patientthen rapidly recovering: some of thepatients, however, develop pneumon-ia, or inflammation of the ear. ormeningitis, and many of these com-plicated cases die. Wether this so-called "Spanish" influenza is identi-cal with the epidemic* of influenzaof earlier year* is not yet known.
Epidemics of influenza have visit-ed thi* country since 1647. It isinteresting to know that thi* firstepidemic was brought here from Va-lencia, Spain. Since that time therehave been numerous epidemics ofthe disease. In 1889 and 1890 anepidemic of influenza, starting some-where in the Orient, spread first toRussia, and thence over practicallythe entire civilized world. Threeyears later there was another flare-up of the disease. Both times theepidemic spread widely over theUnited States.
iof perm causes the epidemic, it itnow believed that fehftaOßSa is al-ways spread from person Jo person,
the jrorms being carried with theair along with the very small drop-let of mucus, expelled by coughingor sneezing, forceful talking, and
\u25a0 the like by one who already has thegerms of the disease. They may
also he carried about m the air inthe form of dust coming from driedmucus, from coughing and sneering,
or from careless people who spit onthe floor and on the sidewalk. Asin most other catching diseases, aperson who has only a mild at-tack of the disease himself may givea very severe attack to others.
What should be done b) those whoratrh the disease?
It is very important that every
I person who becomes sick with in-fluenza should go home at once andgo to bed. This will help keepaway dangerous complications and,will, at the same time, keep thepatient from scattering the diseasefar and wide. It is highly desirablethat no one be allowed to sleep inthe same room with the patient.In fact, no one but tre nurse should
jbe allowed in the room.If there is cough and sputum or. running of the eyes and nose, care
'should be taken that all such dis-charges are collected on bits of, gauze or rag or paper napkins andburned. If the patient complains offever and headache, he should be
] given water to drink, a cold com-ipress to the forehead, and a lightsponge. Only such medicine shouldbe given as is prescribed by the doc-tor. It is foolish to ask the drug-gist to prescribe and may be dan-gerous to take the so-called "safe,sure and harmless" remedies adver-tised by patent-medicine manufac-turers.
Although the present epidemic iscalled "Spanish influenta." there isno reason to believe that it originatedin Spain. Some writers who have
! studied the question believe that thei epidemic came from the Orient andthey call attention to the fact thatthe Germans mention the disease asoccurring along the eastern frontin the summer and fall of 1917.
How can "Spanish influenza" berecognized?
There is as yet no certain way inwhich a single case of "Spanish in-
jfluenza" can be recognized; on the! other hand, recognition is easy where
I tl.eicis a group of cases. In con-trast to the outbreaks of ordinarycoughs and colds, which usually oc-cur in the cold months, epidemicsof influenza may occur at any sea-son of the year, thus the presentepidemic raged most intensely in Eu-rope in May, June, and July. More-over, in the case of ordinary colds,the general spmptoms (fever, pain,depression) are by no means as se-vere or as sudden in their onset asthey are in influenza. Finally, or-dinary colds do not spread throughthe community so rapidly or so ex-tensively as does influenza.
In most cases a person taken sickwith influenza feels sick rather sud-denly. He feels weak, has pains inthe eyes, ears, head or back, andmay be sore all over. Many pa-tients feel dizzy, some vomit. Mostof the patients complain of feelingchilly, and with this comes a feverin which the temperature rises to100 to 104. In most cases theI -dse remains relatively slow.
If the patient is so situated thathe can be attended only by someone who must also look after othersin the family, it is advisable thatsuch attendant wear a wrapper,
] apron, or gown over the ordinary
I house clothes while in the sick room,and slip this off when leaving tolook after the others.
Nurses and attendants will dowell to guard against breathing indangerous disease germs by wearinga simple fold of gauze or maskwhile near the patient.
Will a person who has had influ-enza before catch the disease again?
It is well known that an attackof measles or scarlet fever or small-pox usually protects a person againstanother attack of the same disease.This appears not to be true of "Span-ish influenza." According to news-paper reports the King of Spain suf-fered an attack of influenza duringthe epidemic thirty years ago, andwas again stricken during the re-cent outbreak in Spain.
How can one guard against influ-enza?
In guarding against disease of allkinds, it is important that the bodybe kept strong and able to fight offdisease germs. This can be doneby having a proper proportion ofwork, play, and rest, by keeping thebody well clothed, and by eating suf-ficient, wholesome, and properly se-lected food. In connection withliet, it is well to remember thatmilk is one of the best all-roundfoods obtainable for adults as wellas children. So far as a disease|like influenza is concerned healthauthorities everywhere recognize thevery close relation between itsspread and overcrowded homes. Whileit is not always possible, especiallyin times like the present, to avoidsuch overcrowding, people shouldconsider the health danger and makeevery effort to reduce the home over-crowding to a minimum. The valueof fresh air through open windowscan not be over emphasized.
Where crowding is unavoidable, asin street cars, care should be takento keep the face so turned as not toinhale directly the air breathed outby another person.
It is especially important to be-ware of the person who coughs orsneezes without covering his mouthand nose. It also follows that one-hould keep out of crowds and stuffyplaces as much as possible, keephomes, offices, and workshops wellaired, spend some time out of doorsaach day, walk to work if at allpracticable ? in short make everypossible effort to breathe as muchpure air as possible.
"Cover up each cough and sneeze,If you don't you'll spread disease."
In appearance one is struck by thefact that the pafient looks sick. Hiseyes and the inner side of his eye-
ilids may be slightly "bloodshot," or|"congested," as the doctors say.There may be running from the nose,or there may be some cough. Thesesigns of a cold may not be marked;nevertheless the patient looks andfeels very sick.
In addition to the appearance andthe symptoms as already described,examination of the patient's bloodmay aid the physician in recognizing"Spanish influenza," for it has beenfound that in this disease the num-ber of white corpuscles shows littleor no increase above the normal. Itis possible that the laboratory in-vestigations now being made throughthe National Research Council andthe United States Hygienic Labora-tory will furnish a more certainway in which individual cases of thisdisease can be recognized.
What is the course of the disease?Do people die of it?
Ordinarily, the fever lasts fromthree to four days and the patientrecovers. But while the proportionof deaths in the present epidemichas generally been low, in someplaces the outbreak has been severeand deaths have been numerous.When death occurs it is usually theresult of a complication.
What causes the disease and howis it spread?
Bacteriologists who have studiedinfluenza epidemics in the past havefound in many of the cases a verysmall rod-shaped germ called, afterits discoverer, Pfeiffer's bacillus. Inother cases of apparently the samekind of disease there were foundpneumoeocci, the germs of lobarpneumonia. Still others have beencaused by streptococci, and by othergerms with long names.
No matter what particular kind I
There are fewer candidates thisyear than in any election year with-in the memory of the men who madethe state.
