Reds ON Both Sides

Mayor Ole Hanson of Seattle says that he
has observed ION the fringe" of capital, as we'll
as "on the finge" of labor, small element
preaching or working against the process OF
peaceful evolution, which is the tombstone Of
democracy and this country's surest guarantee
of political stability and we'll being. His pre-
.cription for the cure of differences between
employer and employe is the elimination of
these reds of both sides" and the frank and
friendly cooperation of other elements.
This is q sensible statement very happily
phrased. It is necessary to recognize that there
are reds on both sides" The capitalist who
would attempt to obstruct and prevent changes
desired by the majority is as much red as the
radical agitator who would resort to revolution
to destroy democracy's process of lawful and
peaceful evolution. The sacred right for which
Americans are battling in this critical time is
not to bring this change or to prevent that, but
to make it absolutely certain that the process
for change written into the constitution as the
keystone Of this government shall neither be
destroyed by revolution nor violated by obstruc-
ton.
To preserve this right the American people
will take whatever measures may fit the case
whenever reds, radical or reactionary, attempt
to defeat the will of the majority. Fortunately
these reds constitute but small element with
either capital or labor and their strength cannot
be sufficient to accomplish more than tenn
porary suspension of the process Of lawful evo-
luton in any case. Where this is done, or at
tempted, whether with the tools of mob violence
or Of legislative triekery, remedy will be ap-

The Genie Vanishes.

l. scowled fiercely as he led the
way toward Widow Casey's little cot
tage. He unsheathed his scimitar
and slashed savagely at weeds and
bushes, Peggy and Billy wondered
what would happen when he got his
hands on Miser jenkins, Even
though he had promised not to cut
the miser's head Off, he might forget
himself in his excitement over the
discovery that the widows farm
covered a coal mine and was worth
many times the sum for which it
was mortgaged to Mr.. Jenkins.
But when they got near the house,
the Genie grew cautious. He held
back Peggy, Billy and Pat.
Lets listen at the window, and
see what the miser is really up to-"
he said So instead of going and
boldly confronting the money lender,
they crept up through the shrub
berry to the open kitchen window.
The mortgage is due at o'clock
today, Widow Casey" said the
voice Of Miser Jenkins.
"If you will give me a little more
time until my soldier boy, Lieuten-
ant Mike, gets back, we will pay
you with good interest" answered
the widow.

Who Are the Anarchists.

WIN thEC tItC AHnfCIllSlS.
Palisade, Neb.. May 23.-To the
Editor of the Bee: l see by the
papers that the director general OF
the railroads has brought an appeal
suit from North Dakota, which asks
the supreme court of the United
States to destroy the legal or lawful
rights of the states to fix rates on
their own roads inside of the state.
His course for this atrocious crime
is: THAT congress passes a law
(without any right or authority
that turned the roads over to the
congress and the supreme court of
the United States power to annui
or destroy the sovereign power or
the states? To fix railroad rates in
side of the state? The constitution
does not give them that power, and
they can only do what the consti
tuition says they can 90.
A railroad is state corporation
and under the eminent domain you
cannot take private property for
private use. 1t must be for the pub
lie. Any person who thinks that the
railroads are the private property of
the railroad companies are very lg
norant on that subject. The pro-
prietary right of ownership is al
ways in the state: and the state is
the only legal or lawful power that
can fix rates on their own roads.
The states have allowed the COM
ranies to loan or furnish the money
to build the railroads. on certain
terms. They are allowed to collect
from the persons that use the roads
enough to pay all expenses and
reasonable return on the money in
vested. But the state has reserved
the legal right to manage and fix
rates so the companies cannot rob
the people.
1t looks to me like grand scheme
Of the railroad companies that are
running the railroads for the states
as agents, to rob the states of their
ownership and sovereign power.
Should not the crime of treason be
as great when the government at
tempts to destroy states as it IS when
states attempt to destroy the govern
ment?
l think that the promoters Of the
scheme should be arrested for trea-
son and those found guilty should
be given the full extent Of the law.
am in favor of real government
ownership, but not the farce we now
have.

Give me until tomorrow, begged
the widow. Perhaps ! can get some
one else to lend me $500. The farm
is worth much more than that and is
good security"
"Oh, l don't know about that"
answered the miser. THE place is
all run down. 1t wouldn't bring
much at mortgage sale. But I'll
tell YOU what III do. l am sorry
for you and don't want to see you
lose your property. III buy the
place, paying you handsomely for

Peggy and Billy looked at each
other in surprise. Perhaps Miser
Jenkins wasn't so hard hearted after
all.
II don't want to sell. want to

"Ill give you more than it's

mine on this farm worth fortune"

The old scamp" And the Genie
showed how he felt by slashing
at the evergreen.
"Oh, I wouldn't think of letting it
go for that" said the widow.
If you don't take my offer.
there's only one thing for me to do

Both Answers Right,

A Reader-Both answers were
right. The one which sad mo time
has been set for the return Of any
OF these divisions" Is still correct.
General Pershing has notified the
War department that the Fourth,
Fifth, Sixth and Seventh divisions
can be released from the army of
occupation, and the War department
has announced that these troops will
be moved at once, but has set no
date for their sailing yet. An an
nouncement was made from Wash
ington last Saturday that all the
American eXpeditionary force will be
out of France by June IL, this in

right moment he would balk the
cruel money lender. But now as
they watched him disappear in the
woods whence he had come, their
hearts sank into their shoes. Why
had he gone? And where? Would
he come back? Was he frightened
by the miser's threat? Had he
abandoned the widows farm to its
fate? Anxiously they asked each
other these questions.
