PERvERsIoN OF THE PRIMARY.


New York's mayoralty election rep
resents how easily the political BOSSES
can corrupt primary. An eleventh
hour candidate for mayor appeared on
the republican ballot. Tammany, UNI
opposed, swarmed into the republican
primaries and selected Bennett, a
much weaker candidate than Mitchell.
AS contributing factor to the sue
cess of an old and overworked poll
teal coup, many respectable citizens
failed to vote at the primaries. Their
Stacking" made it easy for the pro-
fessional politicians to get the desired
alignment.
Now Mr. Bennett is the republican
candidate for mayor of greater New
York, while Mr. Mitchell. victim Of
Tammany plots and deals, must run
as an independent. In a three cor
Enred fight, the chances of the evil
forces returning Tammany to power
seems imminent
Friends of good government have
their eyes on New York and trust
that Mitchell will put the reaction
aries to flight.

OFF TO WAR,

Again we are in a great struggle
for mankind.
We hear the sounds of preparation
the music of boisterOus drums, the
silver voices of heroic bugles. We
see thousands of assemblages. and
hear the appeals of orators. We see
the pale cheeks of women, and the
flushed faces of men. and in those as
semblages we see all the dead whose
dust we have covered with flowers.
We lose sight of them no more We
are with them as they march in the
great army of human freedom.
We see them apart with those they
love. Some are walking for the last
time in quiet, woody places, with the
maidens they adore. We hear the
whisperings and the sweet VOWS of
eternal love as they lingeringly part.
Others are bending over cradles. kiss
ing babes that are asleep. Some arc
receiving the blessing of old men.
Some are parting with mothers who
hold them and press them to their
hearts again and again. and say moth
ing. And some are talking with wives.
and endeavoring with brave words,
spoken in the old tones, to drive from
their hearts the awful fear. We see
them part. We see the wife standing
in the door with the babe in her arms.

Refuses Help to Belgium"
Senator Robinson read Senator La
Follette's pending resolution against
lamentations and indemnitles.
1.-The correct construction OF tnat
language" Senator Robinson said, rs
that it is designed to prevent the a.
lies. in case of victory, from compel
ling Germany to indemnify Belgium
for the misery and desolation wnlch
she has so lawlessly brought to that
kingdom, for the wreck and rum
which has followed in the path OF the
German armies as they lawlessly IN
yaded the kingdom OF belgium.
1T will be remembered that at the
outbreak of the war Germany invaded
both Belgium and France. She 1ustl-
ned her invasion of Belgium on the
ground of alleged military necessity,
and the kaiser promised indemnity at
the end of the war. He recognized
that he was violating international
law. lie recognized that he was tear"
ing up statutes and denouncing them
as mere scraps OF paper. He said
that in order to carry out the mill.

was necessary to violate the sOver-
eighty of Belgium and to invade her.
and that when the war was over they
would make rcparation for that dam
age.

We see them all as they march
proudly away under the Haunting

music of war. marching down the
streets of the great cities, through the
towns and across the prairie3, down
to the fields of glory, to do and to die
for the eternal right.
We go with them. one and all. We
are by their side on the CORY fields.
in all the hospitals of pain, on all
the weary marches We stand guard
with them in the wild storm and under
the quiet stars. We are with them
in the trenches running with blood, in
the shell craters of the blasted fields.
We are with them between cOntendlng
hosts, unable to move, wild with thirst,
the life ebbing slowly away upon the
torn and trodden earth. We see them
pierced with balls and torn with
shells, in the trenches, by the forts,
and in the whirlwind Of the charge,
where men become iron, with nerves
of steel. We are with them in the
prisons of hatred and famine.
We are with our heroes and they
with us, whatever comes, till time

The United states supreme court,
after Il rcstful vacation, has recon-
ycned and it will have before it the
most momentous question since those
famous slavery cases.
Is the draft law constitutional?
This is question in which the
whole world is vitality interested, for
upon it largely depends the power Of
civilization to defend itself against
barbaric autocracy Everywhere, in
this crucial issue between human free.
dom and brutal autocracy, we see
stalemate. The greatest navies of the
world are unable to decide it. The
starvation policy is at stalemate
and so is the hloody work Of land
fighting. Utter ruin through exhaus'
ton seems to be the only prospect,
unless
UNLESS THE UNITED STATES
THROWS ALL OF IT'S POWER, IN
MEN, MONEY AND MATERIAL, IN
TO THE BALANCE.
This is the naked question before
that court, and there is far more in
it than mere governmental law. In it
is involved not only the constitutions
atty of the draft act, but the life Of
the constitution itself.
GOD HELP OUR CONSTITUTION.
AL IDEALS OF GOVERNMENT, If
GERMAN AUTOCRACY is NOT
WIPED OUT! I. & = /.
Not only is this draft case of para
mount Importance but it is vital that
decision on it should be rendered at
the earliest possible moment. We
have declared war on the most power
full martial nation this world ever
knew Constitutionally or otherwise,
we have already spent billions, broken
up millions of homes and business
concerns in order to prosecute our
war to the best of our ability. A
lingering doubt as to our ability to
make war would make us thing to
be laughed at and scOrned by Rus
slams, Mexicans, Chinese or any other
nation impotcnt to carry out great
national purpose. 1t would spell
wrack and ruin, if not downright an
archy, in these United States. Under
the regular order. this draft issue
would not come up in the United
States supreme court for Is months.
Picture our allies, picture ourselves,
under is months of doubt as to whcth-
er we can make war! Shall the bloody
slaughter of the best men Of Europe,
the outrage of her women the burn
ing of her homes and public institu-
tions, the universal massacre of in
nocents 20 on for months because our
hands are tied fast by the red tape
of courts? Shall we continue sending
our beloved sons, brothers, husbands
into the camps as heroes, under
months Of doubt as to whether they
may not come sneaking back home as
discredited, dishonored and defeated
buffers? Far better that we drown
our courts and burn up our constitu-
