REPUBLICAN EFFRONTERY

In a recent speech in Philadelphia
Representative Gillett, of Massachu
sets, whom the Republicans have
chosen for Speaker, called President
Wilson a dreamer and an idealist
More than that, Mr.. Gillett' said the
President "is an egoist; he is not a
man of practical affairs."' And the
Republican leader added: "The people
do not want repetition of the indie
cision, apparent aimlessness and blum
dering of the past few years in Wash
ington." .., ii -
The record of the Democratic party
during the last several years of con-
troll will bear comparison with that set
up by the Republicans who held the
reins of government unbrokenly from
1896 to 1912. IT,.
Mr.. Gillett's party conducted the
war with Spain. AS wars go, it
wasn't much of war; about one. per
cent as large an undertaking as our
part in the world war, which was con-
Quoted with about one hundred times
as much efficiency. 1t wasn't fought
long enough ago for the public to- have
the kind of food the soldiers ate; the
plaques that swept them away in the
camps until the death rate appalled,
the country, because of poor sanita-
ton, or no sanitation at all, and a
hopelessly incompetent medical SER
vice. Nor has the country forgotten
that favOritism ruled over efficiency
in the commissioning Of officersi that
the expeditionary force to Cuba was
commanded by general too fat to
walk and who had to be carried about
on a litter, and who owed his prefer
ment to his personal friendship for the
Secretary of War. Compare the rec
ord of Shafter, in Cuba with handful
of men, with that of Pershing, in
France with two million, and then
think of the impotence of Republicans
in mentioning such a thing as "in.
decision" "aimlessness," or "blunder'
ing" .,v
During successive administrations
from 1896 to 1912, Republicans talked
of banking reform; the Democrats es
tablished the Federal Reserve System
Republicans talked of farm loans; the
Democrats established the Farm Lane
Bank system under which farmer!
have borrowed nearly 5000, 900 a
low rate of interest and on very long
terms. The Democratic administra
ton substituted deeds for words.
Americas achievements in the pas
two years astounded her allies and ov
erwhelmed her enemies. They are tn
brightest page in history-and the!
were accomplished under the leader
ship of man Mr.. Gillett has the eff
frontery to call dreamer" and al
"idealist."

A FLAG-DAY THOUGHT

Saturday will be Flag Day-a day
that should be pregnant with unusual
significance this year, when radical
aliens, men to whom the flag and what
it stands for mean nothing, are gnaw-
ing at the foundations of our free gov
eminent.
Bomb outrages, incendiary plots,
anarchistic fulminations, all are trace
able in this country to foreigners-im-
migrants who have come from OPP
pressive lands and who have refused
to familiarize themselves with their
altered environment. Native-bon
Americans are seldom associated with
the Reds, nor are Americanized aliens.
Keeping out all immigrants for a
number of years will not solve the
problem. America cannot afford to
shut its gates in the face of earnest
foreigners who are seeking a land of
liberty and promise in which to make
their homes. We have room for mil
lions of desirable workers and it
would be poor economy to bar them
out.
Of course, we should be careful at
our ports of entry, and obviously I'M
desirable persons should De kept out,
but the real solution of alien radical
ism lies rather in Americanizing the
foreigners in our midst than in re-
stricted immigration.
To begin with, those who would
make their homes here, should, be
called upon at once to declare their
intention Of becoming citizens and q
familiarizing themselves with our form
of government, our habits of living
and our economic ideals. ~ e'
At the end of five years or some
other reasonable period the alien
should be called before a board to
pass an examination as to his quail
fications for citizenship. Unless by
that time he can read, write and speak
English he should be deported on one
of two grounds-either because he
has shown no desire to become an
American or because he is a mental
defective. iftsk
With the opportunities for instrpc-
ton in this country, any person of
normal mind can learn to speak and
read English in five years. We have
night schools, Americanization classes,
social settlements and scores Of other

bentinries, and there is no definite
statement as to whether treaty will
be negotiated with Turkey just as
with Germany, Austria and Bulgaria.
: 1t. is understood that the Turkish
delegation will charge the young
Turks with full responsibility for en-
tering the war and urge that the pres
ent government is not to blame. The
Turks are said to be willing to concede
Armenia, Arabia and Thrace, but will
protest the transfer of Smyrna to
Greece.
The Austrian delegation at St. Ger
main has asked Germany to protest
to the Allies against the rigor of the
peace terms presented to Austria, the
Havas Agency says it is informed.
The reported action of the Austrians
is unfavorably commented upon here.

desire to learn is all that is needed

Let us have nothing but American
citizens in this country or those who
are about to be. We want no more

Nearly Got q Bear.

Harold Dobyns, we'll known gov
ernment trapper who is now station
ed at Tom Boylen's range in north
ern Idaho, has just sent in one of his
regular reports, to which he adds a
postscript to this effect: On the night
of September 2S he was awakened
by bunch of sheep which stamped
ed over the top of his bed, and when
he raised up he saw a bear, probably
a grizzly, about six feet from him
He did not have his gun at hand but
Jumped out to secure 1t and he and
the camp tender fired at the anima
from distance of IL or Is feet
They did not kill him but heard him
bawlng so think he must have been
hit This is all there is to the story
excepting that Mr.. Dobyns was a lit
tic dubious as to its effects on his
readers and added, "This is true
bear tory."--Pendleton Tribune,
