LIBERTY OF THE l776 BRAND

The people reap what they sow. If
they install bad leadership they reap the
harvest of bad laws and high taxes.
The people pay the price of incompetent
leadership and all kinds of business and
industries suffer from them.
But for intelligence applied to govern
ment the world over would lapse into an
archy and perhaps into barbarism.
The state and the nation, nay even the
city or county, rise no higher than lie
character of their leaders
The country and its industries and de-
velopment depend on sound permanent
policies ad honest leadership.
The country is watching the experiment
in state socialism in North Dakota under
the guise of farmers movement.
We tried some of the same experiments
in 1892 under the name of the P5pullst
movement, led by the Sockless Jerry
Simpson.
We have the rule of the Bolshevik in
Russia and the l. w. w. pleads for one
union and the characterization of indus
tries.
We had the Knights of Labor and the
Farmers Alliance and the Dennis Kear-
ney Sandlot party in the past thirty years
But they have all gone their way and
The mournful procession of false profits,
quack doctors and demagOgs reappears.
But Liberty and free institutions of the
ITO brand survive and the noble statue
IN her honor still lights New York harbor.

DEspoTs REGARDLESS OF NAME

1t is folly to blink the fact that the rail-
road men attempt dictation. That is
plainly initiated in the statement of B.
M. Jewel that if congress should pass the
bill of Director General Hines establish
ing a committee on wage increases, We'll
tie the railroads up so that they will new
er run"
The question is not whether railroad
mems wages shall be increased or wheth-
err they shall share profits The question
was well stated by Senator Thomas when
he said: "a segment of the American
people has pointed its finger at the Amer
lean congress and said You must legis
late thus and so or we will strike and tie
up all transportation and industry"
That is what the American people face.
1t is direct action" such as has produced
industrial chaos in almost every country
of Europe. 1t is might, contemptuous
of right, different only in degree, not in
principle, from the might by which Ger
many sought to enslave the world and by
which b0lshevism has made Russia char
mel house. It matters not whether this
might is welded by one despot or many,
by one class or another, such might is one
kind and effect. 1t is destructive of free
dom and therefore is repugnant to Am
erican democracy, for the principles upon
which this government was founded rec
ognize special rights of no class, do not
even recognize that there are such things
rs classes. They deal only with indivi-
dual citizens and with the civil units into
which the government organizes citizens.
BY the unhindered operation of those
principles the American nation has
grown to its supreme position of benefit
cient power and prosperity and has be-
come the hope of salvation for suffer
ing world.

PROGRESS OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Now that the women of the nation are
at the portal of their rights there is no
good reason why they should not be in
vited into the living room and made to
feel at home. The national suffrage
amendment to the constitution which
passed Congress on June has been rat
fled by fourteen states-Wisconsin Mich
igan, Kansas, Ohio, New York, Illinois,
Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Texas, To-
wa, Missouri, Arkansas, Montana and
Nebraska
There are twenty-four states which are
expected to ratify, namely, Arizona, Cali
fornia, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware
Idaho, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Mime
sofa, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jer-
sey, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklaho-
ma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dako-
ia, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West
Virginia and Wyoming. If all of these
ratify, the amendment will be adopted by
the necessary three fourths majority with
a surplus margin OF two. OF the twenty
four states expected to ratify only three
will hold regular sessions before 1921
Rhode Island, Maryland and New Jersey.
1t is therefore necessary in order to per-
NIT women to vote at the presidential
election in November. 1920, that seven
teen other states hold special elections
before that time. OF the fourteen states
which have already ratified, ten acted at
special sessions, seven of which were spe-
cially called for this purpose Special SEES
sions which are already scheduled are
Minnesota for September and New
Hampshire for September 9.
Delegations of women are in Salt Lake
urging upon the governors in attendance
at the conference the Importance of cal
ling special sessions. They argue that now
that congress has taken the initiative
there is no valid reason why American
women should be kept waiting for their
political liberty.

neer in woman suffrage as well as in 9TH

THE REMNANT SALE

The administration is staging spec
tacular sale of bacon, canned beans and
canned beef for the edification and molli-
fication of public clamoring TO" lower
prices. On the same page that we read
about the $124,000,000 dish of bacon and
beans which the government intends to
serve we read about scores of thousands
of babies in the country suffering from
undernourishment. Had the President
taken up the problem Of high cost months
ago he would have been able to prevent
the scandalous sale Of government goods
to trusts and the waste of foodstuffs.
The sale is really nothing more than
remnant sale. One hundred twenty-four
million dollars worth of bacon and canned
vegetables would go far toward the feed
ing of 100000 soldiers. What has. be-
come of the foodstuffs?
Some months ago the government sold
25,000,000 pounds of sugar. The consume
err reaped no benefit because the sale was
made to the sugar corporations.
Many millions of feet Of lumber were
offered for sale and the lumber trust pro-
tested against the disposal of the lumber
to the public. Consequently the lumber
was sold to the lumber barons who, al
most Immediately raised the price of lum-
Der $500 thousand feet.
The government has on hand several
hundred million dollars worth of automo-
biles. Why not sell these to the public?
Will it be argued that auto trucks are
luxuries? And even if automobiles be
classed as luxuries the sale of the govern
ment machines to the general public
would help in several ways. 1t would put
into service machines which are going to
waste. 1t would release labor for other
work than the manufacture Of automo-
biles. And, despite the cries of protest
from the manufacturers and dealers, it
would not injure their business, because
the demand for machines far exceeds the
supply.
We read somewhere that the army had
made saving of millions of dollars by
sorting over goods which went to waste.
1t is an economy worthy of commentator
but how foolish it is to save articles val
ued at few cents each and allow articles
worth thousands of dollars each to be
DESTROYED
The $124,000,0OO of bacon and beans is
not drop in the bucket. The govern
ment has surplus supplies of all kinds
that can be disposed of to consumers di-
rectly. Let demand go forth from con-
sumers everywhere that these goods be
sold to the people at cost. There is a
shortage, we are told, in all lines of goods.
If so, the governments surplus cannot do
any great injury to wholesale or retail
trade.-The Citizen.
