AMERICA LAST !!

r-NI1 49,
cratic policy Of disabling the benefits
Of his own country. .
Look at the long list Of Mr.. Wilson's
deeds that make every Americans,
cheeks burnI His funky presen-
tation unasked of equal rights in our
Ameri can built Panama Canal to Eng
land.
His cOwardly submission for eight
months to German, under-sea
assassinations of American citizens;
which outrages both Germany and
Austria are again committing. His ne
glect for whole year to rebuke Eng
glands arbitrary seizure of American
ships and cargoes. His cowardly re-
fusal to resent the insolent interference
of German and Austrian ministers and
their emissaries in the affairs of our
country. His announcement through
his now Secretary Lansing, of the alb
surd doctrine of "dual allegiance"
which has encouraged foreign monar-
chies to claim equal sovereignty over
American citizens born in this country
of naturalized parents, and to send
hither swarms of spies and dynamiters
to destroy millions of property and muir
der scores of our citizens.
This un-American doctrine of Mr..
Wilson'S dual allegiance" is an ignoble
admission that the Constitution of the
United States may be subordinated to
the arbitrary wills of foreign rulers!
In facts, the Austrian Emperor was
emboldened thereby to make theun heard
of demand that an American Court
seize and hold for trial a naturalize d
American citizen for speaking disre-
spectfully of old Francis Joseph!
All this is amazing to the degree OF
unbelief- and yet it is all disgustingly
true, and made so by the practice OF
the same Democratic principles that in
1861 were invoked by Democrats North
and South to destroy our Union.
Thanks to it all. foreign impudence
has grown apace until it is fast becon-
ing question whether native born
Americans have any rights in their own
country Should we have the great
misfortune of still another quadrenniun
of Mr.. Wilson and his un-American
putting of foreign rights before ouI
own, it may be necessary for our free
: citizens to apologize to the Kaiser and
England for daring to call themselves
Americans
Lest any reader of The Transcript
think this picture overdrawn, we viii
recite d few more of Mr.. Wilson'S
strange actions in belittling his owr
country and seeking to set a fOreigr
government ahead of it.
Three years ago when Japan wa:
making the absurd demand that biz
Japanese youth be allowed to sit in tbs
California public schools alongside oi
their boys and girls, MIR. Wilson sen
Mr.. Bryan out there on special mission
to bulldoze that sovereign state into
permitting this improperly. A more
indefensible attempt to coerce fret
people and do wrong utterly hostile
to every tradition and practice of oul
Nation, has not been seen since the
days of George III. And yet Demo.
Gratis are fond of boasting that Estate
rights" is one of their great beliefs
One more illustration of Mr. Wilson,
fussy desire to interfere in the private
affairs of a state to please some foreign
country-Sweden this time.
Two years ago Swede named Hill
strom was convicted, after fair tria
of numbering two men in Utah. At Mr.
Wilson's request some weeks ago tn,
execution of the murderer was post
poned, and his case carefully considereC
by the State Board of Pardons which
unanimously affirmed the justice of the
sentence-for it was a clear case of thu
cold blooded murder of a father ant
son.
When. the sheriff was about to exc
