run tax syndicates and land sharks out
of the state Mr.. Debs said in that
setting up the cooperative commons

effect and void and would so be con
strued by the courts should the cues

Secretary Long Wants It Manned by Native

WASHINGTON, june 22.-Secretary
Long has a plan for the United States
navy about which little is being said.
and yet its Importance is even greater
than the building Of new ships. 1t is,
in brief, to Americanize it. While it
is not generally known, it is neveFthe-
less a fact that a large proportion Of
the seamen now enlisted on American
men-of-war are of foreign birth. In
case the United States should get into
a war with any foreign power the fact
that our vessels are manned to so large
an extent by foreigners would give
rise to serious apprehension.

The suffering beast furiously endeay-
