TAFT SCENTS PLAN
TO LEAGUE
Nv WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT

Copyright. 1919. BY Public Lcd0er Co.
Senator Lodge is reported to have said
that the second reservation framed by
the Senate foreign relations committee
in respect to Article Y only differs in
phraseology and not in substance from
the reservations in respect to the same
article of the mild reservationists. Such
a statement cannot be supported.
The reservation of the foreign rela-
lions committee in effect is a declination
on the part of the United States to be-
come bound in any way by the obllga e
tions of the league so far as it provides
a union with other nations to secure the
peace of the world. 1t is a notice to
the world that we are willing to enjoy
the benefits of the league for ourselves.
but that we are not willing to bill
gate ourselves in any way to aid the
rest of the world in securing those bene-
fits. 1t is n reservation that no one
of the other nations could accept with
any sense of self respect.
1t is a reservation which, if it passes,
will certainly require the reasscmbling
of the conference at Paris and probably
the negotiation of a separate peace with
Germany. 1t is a reservation drawn in
such a way as to take the heart out of
the league, so far as the United States
and its participation are concerned. Any
senator who votes for it votes to defeat
the league. He may just as we'll vote
with Senator Knox and Senator Borah
and Senator johnson against the whole
treaty as to vote for this reservation
and he would take a much more candid
and ]courageous course in doing So

To accept it unaltered. he argued,
would be a betrayal Of America.
II can never vote to ratify without
safeguards" said the senator. land
I mean to vote for the amendments pro
posed by the committee. If the Prcsi-
dent is correct in declaring the proposed
reservations will send the treaty back
then amendments will not unduly delay

said if Europe ''will barter in terri
tories and peoples. We cannot hinder
but we need not approve and surely We
need not guarantee.
at is my deliberate conviction, he
said, that the league OF nations cove
nant, as negotiated at Paris. either
created n supcrgovcrnment Of the ma
lions which enter it. or it will prove
the colossal disappointment of the ages

Hot After Burleson

Postmaster General Burleson
has become such a menace to his
party's chances as we'll as to the
hundreds of thousands of employ
es who now make a living under
his management and the general
public who must use the postal
wire services, that his departure
from public life appears newt
able. Washington wiseacres are
Of the opinion that President Will
son will get rid Of him as soon as
he returns from the peace confer
ence if Burleson has not resigned
before that time.
The cabinet scandal surround
ing the postmaster has only one
parallel in recent American his
tory-the notorious Ballinger
case during Taft administration.
Burleson's s arbitrary control Of
the mails and refusal of the mails
to many publications and to pri-
vate persons without hearings or
any court action, has made the
more radical groups bitterly hos
tile. More recently the refusal Of
his subordinates in the telegraph
service to transmit a news story
for the New York World because
it attacked Burleson gave great
impetus to the newspaper hostil-
ity. He has also refused to the
right of the mails to a magazine
put out by the Postal Telegraph
company for its employees for the
same reason.
Advocates of government own
crship for the telephones and tele-
graphs feel that he has greatly
injured their cause by misman-
agement Of these utilities. In
stead Of being a friend of public
ownership, as he claims, his acts,
they declare, have given public
control a black eye with the EN-
ployes and the general public.

The primary & politics

Jed HICKS, you know, lives next to me
He came from Marshall, Iowa,
And filed on half of twenty-three.
His two sons came the year befor,
And gobbled section twenty-four.
The three of them and Mother Hicks
Are mighty strong on politics.
Jed swears by Taft and the G. o. P.
And is dead opposed to the primary.
But Mother Hicks, the women say
Is talking strong the other way.
IF women are to vote," says she,
We've got to save the primary.
It's the only way to nominate
A truly peoples candidate.
If we're to keep the nation free
And safe for world democracy,
We've got to hold the rights we've won
And finish what we have begun.
To abandon now the primary
Is a step toward autocracy.''
Old Jed maintains, "This female vote
Is the one thing that gets my goat.
Women have no right to mix
Their yap in local politics.
Il we can get the caucus back
They'll stay at home and stop their
Clack.
Give us l say the good old days
OF James G. Blaine and r. B. Hayes;
When Reed was czar and Platt was
king,
And Mark was almost everything;
Before we heard of suffragettes
Or eggs that hatched the farmerettes.
We've had enough of petticoats,
OF temperance talk and female votes.
Let us get back while not too late
To the partv BOSS and the partv
SLATE"
As the castle founded on the sand
A house divided cannot stand.
At least that's what the preachers
say,
But the Hicks chebang seems built
to stay.
Is one divided family.
They just agree to disagree,
And each one votes as he or she
Would deal out public equity.
The boys, John C. and William Tell,
Are members of the N. P. l..
They smile to hear the old man kick
And calmly show their badge, We'll
stick"
All parties look alike to them,
The G. o. P, the Wilson dem.---
The socialist, the Teddy moose,
Like all misfortunes, have some use,
1t all depends on the point Of view
And the end that you are striving to.
If you have nothing to conceal,
An honest deck-an honest deal;
If women should, you think, like men
Share in our public life, why then
You'll vote to keep the primary
And safeguard our democracy.

SC0BEY CITIZEN SPEAKS
OUT At GANG
Is Heartily for Saving
The Primary

The front page Of this paper car
ries a news story concerning the
efforts of the Nonpartisan League
and others who are interested, to
have the special primary referen-
dun that has been called for Sep
tenber, put over unit! the general
election next year, at which time
it will be possible for everybody
to vote. Petitions are now being
circulated throughout the state
asking that this be done.
The Citizen wishes to speak
straight out on this matter, and to
make our voice heard, if possible,
from one end of Montana to the
other. The special interests Of
this state and the professional pol
iticians shall not trample under
foot the sacred rights Of free peo-
Pile! they shall not take from us
the liberty Of the ballot! Mark
we'll our warning, You enemies Of
government by the people! For
twenty years and more the polit-
ical history Of Montana was writ
ten in pages Of the vilest kind of
corruption that had it's conception
within the walls of many con
vention hall. Men were nominat
ed for offices high within the gift
of a sovereign people who received
those nominations for the only
reason that they were able to han
die a majority Of the delegates.
Trading off, was common
thing. It was a case of "You vote
for my man and we'll vote for
YOU"
The Citizen does not profess to
be an expert judge of sentiment,
but she who runs may read" and
it is as certain as that night fol-
lows the day that voters of Mon
tana will never vote to destroy
that great weapon Of political
freedom, the primary election law,
and return to a system that too
often was manipulated by the
forces of evil and graft. For this
reason we wish every success to
those citizens who have under
taken the work Of circulating the
petitions necessary to have this
referendum postponed until a time
when the greatest number will be
able to vote on it. All forward
looking men, be they Democrats
or Republicans. Nonpartisan
Leaguers or Socialists, must ncce~-
sarily be in favor of this move in
behalf of the people.
