A political pamphlet argues voters must study campaign issues before the election. It warns of a Farmer Labor movement tied to Bolshevik socialism and likens it to sovietism, urging support for the Republican ticket and a fair veteran bonus to counter alleged threats to government stability.
The critique targets Robert Bridges, Farmer-Labor candidate for governor, alleging he leased land to a Japanese firm in 1915 and acquired lands in his wife's name while state land commissioner. The piece cites a Post-Intelligencer exposé detailing 1891 and 1899 transfers, law changes, and alleged political double standards, arguing Bridges misleads voters and mishandles harbor leases.
The Tacoma News-Tribune notes Robert Bridges openly aligns with the I. W. W. and admits their support, listing George Vanderveer and Elmer Smith on his ticket in Lewis County. Bridges criticizes press labeling and warns that the I. W. W would gain power if elected governor, a threat loyal Americans would prevent.
I oppose the current league of nations proposal as drafted at Paris. I favor a world association to discourage war and foster understanding, without wrecking the Constitution or surrendering sovereignty. I will seek public guidance, convene American minds, and value input from American women and mothers.
A prose exhortation urging Americans to honor soldiers and uphold virtue. It emphasizes patriotism as essential in peace and war, calls for thrift, lawfulness, and intellectual cultivation, and argues citizens must defend rights and resist malice domestic or foreign at all times.
