Whereas, at a meeting of the

Branch of the National Security
League. held in New York City on

Resolved, by the executive COM

in many of its atrocious acts and
pronouncements, the efforts of the

ciples of law which the German
government has violated, and which
brought about the war, and their op-
posing the hearty support by Amer

credit as unpatriotic and un-Ameri-
can, have the unqualified condemns
tion of the league.
"Therefore, be it resolved. that

ing branch of the American Security

DEMlNG, N. NJ, June 25.-Led by
THE Deming Headlight" citizens Of
this town have declared war on all
newspapers published by William Ran
dolph Hearst. Deming is the latest
town to join the anti Hearst movement
in the Southwest. An editorial in "The
Headlight" follows in part:
Two towns in New York State
burned big bundles of Hearst papers
after they had deleted part of the Me-
mortal Day proclamation of President
Wilson and had done their disloval
utmost TO make it a colorless doc
ument.
an the city OF Santa Fe the Hearst
papers have been barred, and it is
urged by those at the state capital
who were responsible for barring them
out that the rest Of the towns in New
Mexico follow the same course.
"The suggestion is worth following
There is no room in state that is as
loyal as New Mexico for traitorous
rags like the Hearst papers, and the
sooner they are barred completely
from the mails of the entire country
the sooner will veritable plague SPOT

Refuses to Call Legislature

SEA GIRT, N. j., June 25.-Governor
Edge to-day refused to yield to George
L. Records demand that a special ses-
sion of the Legislature be called to pro-
h'bit the Public Utility Commission
from changing rates established
through municipal franchise ordinances.
The Governor pointed out that the
right Of the commission to adjust rates
had been established by the Court of
Errors and Appeals. Legislation, such
as Mr.. Record suggests, he said, would
only rob the people of New Jersey Of
the fruits of their victories in estab-
fishing a State Utility Commission for
the curbing of utility evils.

ALBANY, June 25.-Where Patrick
E. McCabe, Democratic leader of AL
bany County and once faithful fol
lower of Chorles F. Murphy, will stand
when the Democratic Stare Committee
meets in New York on Thursday will
be watched with interest. Nearly q
year ago he issued hot statement de-
rouncing Tammany Hall. Tonight he
gave out one equally torrid, attacking
I. Harvey Ferris, of Utica, head Of the
Democratic steering committee, which
has been enceavoring to find an anti
Tammany upstate Democratic candi-
date for Governor.
He ridicules what he calls the pre-
sumption Of Mr.. Ferris.
Think OF him." he says, "agreeing
with himself to name the Democratic
candidate for Governor and then con-
senting thai the other candidates or
the ticket be named by the committee
of seven he so good-naturedly ap-
pointed!
"Why, scme upstate Democrats are
mean enough to remember and recall
at this time that after Mr.. Ferris was
chosen as Democratic candidate at
large for membership in tn. Constitu-
tional Convention of 1914, within a
week thereafter he was driven to de-
cline the honor by an infuriated press
and insulted party, when he was found
to be registered corporation lobbyist
when the Senator's attention was
called to the charges of the press and
the demands of the people, he an
swered that he didn't mind the press be-
ing after him. as it advertised mis- busi-
ness and gave him a chance to demand
bigger fees.
mo one with an ounce of sense
doubts that if Senator Ferris was per-
mitted to name the Democratic ticket
this fall, in the interest Of his clients
any number of persons might get big
fat fees.
"The Demo cratic party hasn't changed
its attitude toward Mr.. Ferris and his
clients in the last four years, and since
this is true it looks like another re-
treat for the Senator"

The air raid siren which had been
placed on top of the Edison Electric
Light Company's building, Fortieth
Street and First Avenue, was tested for
the first time last night, after warn
ings had been sent out to dwellers in
the neighborhood to disregard its voice.
Above the din of the city the wall of
the signal sounded feeble, and could
not be heard at all outside radius Of
sixteen blocks. Other measures are be-
ing taken rapidly to insure the city
against decentralization in case Of at
tack.
About fifteen hundred physicians and
many trained nurses and assistant
