 xtension of the suffrage which are be-
 ng agitated all over the country were

 This leaves the solution iii the lands of the people whose lives will
 De affected by the proposed changes,
 Ind is a practical working out of self Government without dictation or inter- Eerence by other states in our affairs"
 No Peace Without Victory
 In the closing blanks the declara- jon is made that:
 'fWe want no peace without victory.
 bn the contrary. after the awful sac
 ifices that have been made we de- hand a victory so complete and con- Elusive that military ambition will be Forever silenced and a peace secured that will make the end of war. When this ~peace comes, with all it's tre- mend ous social and economic prob
 ems, the welfare of the country will klepend upon return of the republican party to power-the only party that las demonstrated it's ability to gov ,rn"

 with MT. Munger's claim that Con- necticut people should settle these questions for themselves, saying that he thought "state rights were. settled Sin the Civil war. He believed MT.

 Interference by people in other states. . Judge Light of Norwalk favored striking out. asking "are we to go on record as being against the conshtu- \ tion of the United States?'
