The government and the people of

aliens as guests here on sufferance. If
their behavior is such that they are
not desirable as citizens. they must
go. Uncle Sam does not care particu-

Has Learned Value of Discipline.
Discipline was frequently very irk-
some to the soldier, who did not al
ways see the necessity for the rigid
rules under which he was compelled
to live. Looking forward to the time
when he will be his own boss" again,
he vows to throw the old uniform
so high it never will come down."
But when he gets back in multi it
soon becomes apparent that the hab-
it's of orderliness, good behavior and
respect for properly constituted au-
thority have not been learned by him
in vain. The soldier is going to show
a willingness to police up the back
yard. the city siums or the state
legislature not heretofore evidenced
The most striking example OF this
has been In connection with recent
"bolshevik' riots in New York, To-
ledo and elsewhere. Almost without
exception the reports tell of dis
charged soldiers taking voluntary ac-
ton against the enemies of organized
government. To the man back from
foreign service the phrase. Il am an
American" is no idle statement. Down
in his heart of hearts is the realiza-
ton that he has been fighting for the
fundamental principle on which this
superstructure of government has
been raised. Bolshevism, as it's name
implies, is an imported article and the
from the start. When it raises it's
head against the government. the SOL
der or sailor does not ask for any or
ders from general headquarters to go
into action against it.

of Operators Outside Central
Competitive Fields

Washington. Nov. 16-Negotiation
Of new wage scale in the soft coal
industry stood in much the same
situation tonight as when miners and
operators met at Buffalo in Septem-
Der to frame a contract to replace
the Washington wage agre ement.
This time. however. there was NO
threat of a strike, and both sides
were ready to resume their confer
ence tomorrow in the hope of reach
ing a quick settlement.
Some of the operators protested
that union miners had failed to re-
turn to work. as ordered by Federal
Judge Anderson at Indianapolis and
in the face of withdrawal of the
strike order by officers of the United
Mine Workers of America. 1t was
intimated that this would be brought
up at the joint conference.
John L. Lewis, acting president OF
the miners organization, still holding
the miners demands just. took issue
today with the statement Of Secre-
tary Wilson that a wage increase OF
sixty per cent. would make them a
favored class Of workers.
The demands submitted to the OPP
orators yesterday reaffirmed the six
hour day. but omitted reference to
from bank to bank" Lewis explain
ed The miners now are asking a
maximum Of six hours working time
in the mines. The time required to
go down into the mines and return
to the surface would add an average
of about half an hour to the day
Lewis said.
There were no indications today
THAT operators outside the central
competitive fields intenden to accept
any agreement which might be
reached in that territory in advance
Of The agreement itself.
Mr.. Lewis declared that miners
representatives from outlying dis
tricts would remain here until a set
tlement in the coal industry was
reached.
Il think the operators will negoti-
ate with them if they expect to oper-
ate their properties he said.

Emma Goldman
Not Entitled to
Am. Citizenship

Washington, Nov. 16.-Replying to a
Senate inquiry as to what had been
done toward deporting Emma Gold
man and Alexander Berkman, Attor-
ney General Palmer declared tonight
that the worlans claim to American
ii izenship was "fallacious' and that
Berkman, by his own admission, was
an anarchist.
The Goldman case is under c-nsidcra
ton by Immigration authorities at New
York and the attorney generals state
rlent was taken to mean that the gov
eminent 5000 would attempt to sen
'her lack to Russia. where she was
born.
Dsaus ing Emma Goldman's claim to
citizenship. Mr.. Palmer said she was
- years cl when her father was ma
turalizcd, and that her age barred her
from inhcri;ing natural zation rights
from him. The fact that her husband
obtained His citizenship through fraud
Mr.. Palmer 'dej. cancelled any ella ms
she mi !ht have established throu IN tina;
source.
The ramifi at ons to which the plots
and plans O. the group of anarch SITS
heaced by Emma Goldman have cx-
tende were reviewed by the attorney
general.
Declaring that both Mathew
Schmidt and David Chaplin. who are
serving prison sentences for compli-
city in the destruction of the Los An
geles Times building were members
of the Goldman clan, he showed also
| that she advocated violence and had
melted riots as early as 1893 when she
was sentenced to serve one Year on
, BlackWelFs island after indictment
on these charges. Mr.. Palmer includ-
ed in the statement transcript of
the confession of Czolgosz, who shot
President Mckinley, in which he told
of the influence Emma Goldman's
teachings had exercised on his life.
Further investigation by government
! agents proved that he had no only
| heard her speak but frequently had
consulted with her as to methods to
be employed in effecting the destruc-
ton of the government.
The connection of both Berkman
and and Goldman with the Bolshevik
movement also was emphasized by
Mr.. Palmer. The activities Of the TN
ION of Russian workers, said to be
one of the most dangerous organza-
lions in America and against which
the government has directed a vigor-
Gus campaign, has been traced di-
rectly to the Goldman Berkman pro-
paGanda headquarters, he said.
