and wanton waste of fabulous sums
Of money taken from generous and
Intensely patriotic people, and be-
cause of the inefficient, loose and
criminally careless preparation for
the conduct of the war which is now
being masured by many thousands
of uselessly wasted lives of our prec-
ious boys. The American people have
the right to complain because its
chief executive without forewarning
or consultation with any one, so far
as is known, declared the war aims
of the whole American people when
Ininety-nine out of every one hum
dred brave men who were offering
their lives had never heard the war
aims limited at. and many of them
never knew these aims until after
the armistlce was signed, and it is
fair to assume that most of them
do not know what these war aims
that they have been fighting for are
today. They have the right to COM
plain because, while preaching the
doctrines of democracy, and at the
same time usurying and exercising
the prerogatives of the car, the COM
mander-in-chief of the army sails
away in his armada of wealth and
|splendor to bring back we know not
what, nor when, nor how. To the
peoples representatives in Congress.
and to the people generally, he has
been as silent as the sphinx as to
where and how and why he was go

and probably new burdens and new
dangers for the republic, the future
welfare of which has always been of
so much concern y our patriotic an
cestors.
The other. day on the floor of Con-
gress, one of the leading and most
eloquent Democrat orators of the
House of Representatives arose from
his seat and said:
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1919-02-15
ONE-sIAN RULE

THE President of the United
States, representing what has been
the greatest republic the world has
ever seen, may speak of justice ana
of the league of nations and the end
of the sorrows of mankind, but the
best hope of this republic and this
people is upon our own shore, de-
Tending the constitution of our faith
ers, protecting the liberties of the
people. an independent self govern
met. q, representative democracy, and
wish, o God of nations, that our
President would come back home
and that we might leave upon this
hemisphere great democracy, UNI
entangled and unengaged with all
the European broils that exist
abroad today"
Did you know. my friends, that
the kaiser, in his greatest hour OF
strength and power could not have
declared the war aims for the Ger
man people without first consulting
the reichstag? Lloyd George said
that he did not presume to state
the war aims of England until every
statesman Of any consequence
throughout the kingdom had been,
heard. Much less would the head of
any government in the world seize
the wires, cut off the avenues of Pc
tition and suggestion, assume to be
the head, shoulders and tail of the
whole peace delegation. and without
counsel or voice from the leading
statesmen Of his nation, make de-
mands. surrender rights, and com
init this nation, dedicated to political
freedom, to policies probably of the
most important character in the his
tory of ite existence. II have conf
'dence that he will do the job right"
Whether he does or whether he does
not make good" for the American
people--this is not and never will
be a one-man government and when
our people supinely surrender to a
one-man dominion. 1t will be the be-
ginning of the end of our fathers
dreams.

phones are paralyzed and being run

1t seems that there is no power
in the administration to strike down

reach out to despoil the great wealth

he seek to gain the applaudits of the
old world>and neglect the imperative
need for some kind of leadership
among the people he loved? Would
he seek world power abroad for him

seat of power and honor in the
