SPOKANE REDS FIGHT NON

ing class of that city since they are
prohibited from placing their own
nominees before the people and from
determining the platform on which
they stand
Better no candidates at all than to
have each nominee the practical
maker of his own platform, was the
slogan of the Reds.
Comrade A. E. House well says on
this point:
Instead of candidates being chosen
by an organized part of the people, to
carry out the policies of that party,
each candidate dominates himself, or
is nominated by his friends. He
makes his own platform or pledges,
and in the end is responsible to no one
but himself. He may be boosted by
clubs but he must not be supported
by a party.
Gould more chaotic nonsensical
plan be devised? 1t opens the door
to all kinds of dishonesty and decep-
ton both before and after election.
Non-partisan elections are contrary to
the spirit and laws of a democracy.
They are out of harmony with our
state and national laws, and were there
not so many Hanfords and HUMPHREYS
on the bench, and were those most in
need of their abolition in possession of
funds to fight with, they would be
speedily declared unconstitutional"
r. B. Martin, who was active in the
unsuccessful attempt to divide the
workers of Washington on the political
field, was a candidate for a commits
sionership, but his election was fought
by the Reds, and he went down to de-
feat.
Martin formerly was a member OF
the regular party but, following the
state convention in Tacoma, aided in
organizing what is known as the "yel-
low" faction, which recently was dis
credited by National Secretary Ian
ferseik of Chicago,

your own and judge where lies the
weight of real value"
Is this America or is it old England
where they believe or used to believe
such stuff as this? So we measure a
man under the flag by the property
he has, do we? 1t appears that 10y
atty is also measured that way at least
when Lancaster does the measuring.
Millions of foreigners came to America
because they believed that her stars
and stripes stood for very different
standard than this.
Mean Attack on John Morris.
To show the reverence and loyalty
that Ford and his partner, Lancaster,
have for men who have displayed I'M
questioned loyalty and to show that
they are lying when they say they are
attacking Sinclair alone and not So
cialism at all note the attack on John
Morris made on October II. In their
farce comedy they picture the Civil
war veteran with coWardly meanness.
After sneering at him and giving a
story to the public about the way in
which they captured a letter they say
this: "Once he fought for Old Glory.
He is now old and feeble in health
but still erect in body and a gallant
fighter though now for a bad cause"
The patriotic loyalty that dictated such
remark deserves the contempt of all
true citizens.
When at Ford's office the last time
both Ford and Lancaster wanted me
to arrange a meeting for them with
the board and the Socialist local.
These two gentlemen were, | presume,
to represent the whole public. As it
is we invited the recall for the people
are the highest tribunal. They may
make mistakes, they may be deceived,
but it is by exercising their judgment
as they will be asked to exercise it in
this case that they learn wisdom.
Real Patriotism.
For thirty-seven yearsI have been
an adherent of the Socialist move
ment. It is an international movement
and as such has an international ban
ner. It is the red flag. 1t stands
for the emancipation of the workers
of the whole world and the final real
ization of the brotherhood of man. /
see nothing bad about this ideal.
see nothing that makes me less loyal
to the stars and stripes that waves
over our particular part of the world.
/ have in the years gone by thought
that the stars and stripes stood for
freedom to express any opinion that
we Nigh have. But Ford and Ian
caster are doing all in their power to
convince us that this freedom that we
once believed in is dead. They reserve
for themselves the right to denounce
John Morris, whose services for his
country and whose personal worth
towers high above their smallness
They have written for months about
their fellow citizens but they ask us
10 punish Sinclair for writing what he
sincerely believes.
