ANTI I-YELLOW DOG
CLUB IS PRAISED
BY FORMER CHIEF.

New York August 12.-Theodor
Roosevelt, with characteristic force
has endorsed the nationwide move
ment against the yellow dogs" Wit
are aiding the enemy by spreading
German made stories and demoraliz
ing lying rumors
In a letter addressed to the ma
tional deputy at headquarters of the
Anti,Yellow Dog club in New York
City, our ex-president amplifies the
slogan of the Anti-Yellow Dog Clubs
which is Free Speech Yes Free
Lies, Mo-" and lends his moral sup.
port to the object of the clubs which
is to make every corner of America
100 per cent American, by awaken
ing the people to the treachery of
the Hun propagandist who is using
the mouths of thoughtless Americans
to spread the gospel of the kaiser
Mr.. Roosevelt says:
Mr.. Chas J. Giegerich deputy,
Anti-Yellow Dog club,
$50 eth Ave, New York City.
Dear sir:
wish you all good luck in your
efforts to start the Anti-Yellow Dog
clubs. 1t is the duty of the Ameri-
can people to put this war through
to a finish. 1t is our duty to insist
upon a 100 per cent Americanism,
in this land and to tolerate no divid-
ed allegiance. 1t is our duty to back
up the government in extending the
draft, in encouraging and insisting
upon the speeding up of our war
plane program, our field gun program,
and every other industry connected
with the war and to back it up by
sending the greatest possible number
of our soldiers abroad until we get
an army on the fighting line, bigger
than the combined lines of France
and England. 1t is our duty to stand
by every public servant who eff
ciently, fearlessly and patriotieally
does his duty along these lines.
1t is no less our duty to fearlcssly
oppose any public servant who fails
in any point to perform such duty
This isn't any one mans war, and
It isn't any government organizations
war. It's the war of the American
people. It's their duty to insist that
all their servants carry It ON with the
highest efficiency.
With all good Wishes,
Faithfully yours,
(Signed) Theodore Roosevelt.
The establishment of Anti-Yellow |

result of the suggestion in "The Vel

REMARKABLE LURCF1
TOWARD AUTOCRACY

| OF peace. This treaty-making power
has been exercised solely by the
kaiser. or by the kaiser with the
consent of the federal council. which
practically amounts to the same
thing. The requirement Of the con
sent of the German representative
legislature, if effected in good faith
and prominence. would be notable
move away from autocracy toward
democracy.
On the same day, Thursday. Octo-
Der IL, a Washington despatch in
forms us that a senator of the United
States has introduced a resolution
practically multiplying the constitu-
tiona1 requirement that the senate
shall participate in the making OF
treaties of peace and all treaties by
the president of the United States:
shall possess, in fact, the power to
veto the presidents proposed peace
treaties by a vote anywhere over one
third of the members present. That
is what our constitution provides.
Senator Lewis carte blanche resolu-
ton would (if it could amend that
democratic provision by substituting
purely~autocratic process.
For this is what Senator James
Hamilton Lewis proposal amounts
to, If it means anything more than
yirmilion vapor:
Because we believe that President
Wilson is entitled to the confidence
of the senate by his discretion, judg-
ment and patriotism, and by his eff
forts to preserve the dignity of the
nation and the complete vindication
OF the principles for which it entered
the war, let the United States SEN
ate, by resolution approving and en-
dorsing in advance all he may do.
invest him with undivided and auto
cratic powers as to the making of
the peace treaties
And this on the very day when
Germany. in an attempt to show at
least a camouflage compliance with
the presidents demand for govern
ment more democratic and rep.e ZEN
tative before he will parley, is By
vote or resolution of the imperial
federal council proposing to deprive
the kaiser of the autocratic power
he has previously exercised in the
making OF treaties.
AS We said, this must be embar-
RAISING for the president. 1t almost
makes it seem as if the federal coun-
ell should be operating at Washing
ton and the Hon. James Hamilton
Lewis belonged in Berlin.

A REBORN STATE.

| In expressing his satisfaction with the pro-
gress of the Zionist movement here and in al
lied countries and his sympathy with the foun-
dalton of a Hebrew university at Jerusalem,
the president has gone as far as he can, consid-
lering that not officially at war with Tur-
key, in sanctioning the erection of Judean re-
public in Palestine. In private talk he is said
ito have gone still further, and proclaimed that
as far as his influence can effect it both Pales-
tine and Armenia must be free, autonomous
states. Other nations free to act-Great
Britain, France Italy, Serbia, Greece-have al
ready endorsed the Zionist project, as has the
pope the American Federation of Labor and
other powerful labor groups in allied and neu-
trail lands. No other outcome of the war seems
surer, therefore, than the re-establishment OF
the ancient Jewish state
1t was two thousand three hundred and
sixty-three years ago, according to the accept
cd chronology, when the edict of Cyrus permit
ted the return of the Jews to their homeland
and the first caravan set out. But the work to
restore the city was arrested until two thou
sand, four hundred and thirty-nine years ago,
when Darius, an enlightened ruler who had
the Red sea and the Nile by canal
reafirmed the earlier decree. Now the nation
which built and the nation which holds the
modern ship canal has declared that the dis
persed Jews shall again go back and the flag
holy city. When else in human history was al
racial dream chung to with such tenacity and
fulfilled at last9

New York Sun: The resolution Of
fered in the senate yesterday by the
indomitable James Hamilton Lewis
OF Illinois. is doubtless suggested
with the most patriotic intentions,
but it must be considerably embar-
RAISING to President Wilson just the
same. 1t may even seem to him an
| untimely exhibition of damfoolish-
ness.
Mr.. Lewis invites the senate to re-
nounce one of the most important of
its constitutional functions. He asks
its abdication as a part OF the treaty
making power of the United States
government The constitution en-
powers the president to make trea-
ties only with the advice and consent
OF the senate. two-thirds of the sena-
tors present concurring. Peace,
when made, must be made by treaty.
The Lewis resolutions seeks to COM
init the senate in advance to ap-
prevail of whatever course may be
taken by the president of the United
States in the matter of his dealings
with the enemy governments. 1t en-
dorses in advance and without limit
whatever methods he may employ
to achieve the result of victorious
principles for which the United
States entered the war;
IL this highly estimbale and highly
vermilion statesman merely intended
to secure from the senate compli-
mentary expression of confidence in
the discretion, Judgment and patriot
ism of President Wilson, he went
about ii in manner to make the
angels of democracy weep. For the
singular feature of his resolution,
when closely studied and correctly
appreh ended, is that it proposes a
radical change in the peace-making
of the United States gov
eminent, In the direction of autoc-
racy, at the very moment when Ger
many is undertaking to modify its
peace-making machinery in the direc-
ton OF democracy, and this in order
to meet or to seem to meet the con-
ditions imposed by President Wilson
himself

A sYCOPHANTIC SENATOR.

Senator Lewis, Of Illinois, has introduced a
resolution which would bind the senate in adj
vance to approve and endorse every step the
president may take and ''invest him with undi-
! yided autocratic powers as to the making Of
peace treaties In other words, this senator
! ial accident and misft, as he is widely regard
led, would have the senate divest itself of it's
constitutional function of discussing and con-
firming or rejecting treaties framed by the ex-
ecutive and leave the whole question of our re-
lations with other powers of earth to him.
/ When, If ever, was more preposterous prop
osition made in highest legislative body ?
Is this a one-man governments Is one man
wiser than all the rest of u.s. Will wisdom die
with our present executive head7 Of course it
lis unthinkable that the senate Will give up it's
constitutional prerogative and deliberately
abase and efface itself. But the fact that a
jsenator who is close to the president a senator
gwhose reelection the administration openly
urges and earnestly desires takes this position
| is disturbing sign of the times If the presi-
dent does not want this, Senator Lewis evident

ton of the senate majority on the resolution
will measure the obsequiousness of its member
