Woman’s Relation
To War.
ISv Malvina lv. Ilnil.
Well lias tlio poet of the
[Sur
ras said: ‘
■ •'The bravest battle that ever v/ar
fought,
Shall 1 tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you will fin 1
it not,
That fought by the mother of men.”
Does raaii^ver think that ev
ery ejrpse upon the '■ battlefield
represents nine months of phy
sical discomfort and suffering of
:teu culminating in hours of ilie
most excruciating agony which
‘mortals may know?
or is this all there are coun‘
mss hours in the silent watclie

oftho night,when those to whom
ihe has given life, are running
the gauntlet of diseases incidem
to childhood, there are jears id
watchful care, of patient dcvo
1'ion and teaching, guiding ihe
! littie feet into paths, of moral
rectitude
These are the experiences ol
'very mother, but many a mo
her Watches the boy she ha
lurtiued.at her bosom, grow ii
o strong, vigorous manhood,
the pride nud joy of her life,ant;
then, in the twinkling of an eye
hat life which is a part of her

awfnl carnage of war to gratify
man’s insatiate ambition foi
wealth and power.
This Is the price woman ha

‘hnik you then, ,that woman
has nothing to say about war?
When I think of tlie awful cai
iage that is devastating Europe
uul in fancy hoar the roar ol
lie machino guns, see the man
gled bodies of thousands of mo
hers’ sons, hear their piteous
groans, I thank God from the
leptlis of my soul, that woman
in this 20th century is awaken
ing to a new . consciousness o!
Her duties and rssponsibilities.
Never again wijl she submit,

in the affairs of slate.
The demand she io m ff:in~ to
day is not to usurp man’s phvo
■in the larger social life, but to

omition in those enterprises
and activities which she fecit
competent to entei.
Sinde the working men have
had the suffrage, most of them
have beer, voting for w. at they
don’t want and getting!,it. Now i
that the working woman of Alas
ka has the suffrage let her vote
for what she does want and at
anyrate have a chance of getting
what she wants. Remember the
Socialist party holds the resigna
tion from office of every candi
date. They have to keep their
pre-eleciion pledges.

Comments On The
World’s Haws.
Although Australia is far removed
rom the war/.one, the greedy cormo
rants who cannot resist the opportuni
ty to make fat profits from the misfor
tunes of the poor at home and abroad,
promptly seized the advantage to raise
the price of the necessaries cf life when
the’strugglein Europe began. One of
the tirst acts of the Labor party, in se
curing control of the National govern
ment was to enact a law prohibiting
the raising of prices above the normal
level that prevailed before hostilities
began. The State government of New
South Wales, also in control of the La
bor party, then immediately put down
breaks. Acting in accordance with the
powers conferred upon it by Parliament

Ollie N. Morris, a prominent memi
ber of the Oklahoma Legislature and
well known trade unionist, resigned
from the Democratic party and joined
the Socialist party In a pamphlet which
he has issued he explains the reason s
for his action. He says that he went to
the Legislature under the impression
that the Democratic party really wish
ed him td carry out the promises in the
platform, but discovered that the real
bosses of that party had no such inten
tion. ‘'They expect him to advocate
certain measures/’ he says, “but if he
actually tries to carry out these mea
sures they will defeat him.’’
