YORK ASSEMBLY
Idaho Senator Denounces Leg
isIature For Refusing Seat
Five Socialists Declaring
Procedure Invites Violence.

Washington, Jan. determination
of the New York legislature for refus-
ing to seat five members elected on
the Socialist ticket was voiced In the
senate today by Senator Borah, Idaho,
Republican.
Such action invites violence. he de-
clared.
AS Borah was speaking in the sem
ate, the house was in the midst of its
second attempt to prevent Victor
Berger, Milwaukee, Socialist, from ta-
king his seat.
Borah's attack on extreme measures
against Socialists came during debate
on the Sterling sedition bill.
IF we deny men the right to effect
their plans through the ballot box we
invite them to use force" Borah de-
clared.
Borah declared that the best way to
aid the spread of Socialism is to con-
vince the world that we have no faith
in our own form of government.
THE best way to meet Socialism Is
to prove that this old government can
meet every crisis and settle every
problem and still keep the constitu-
ton sacred.
''rhe theory that we must violate the
constitution to preserve our govern
ment is not only folly, but it is a con-
spiracy against our form of govern
ment."
Senator Sterling, author Of the sedi-
ton bill, under consideration, declared
that the action of the New York legis-
lature doesn't meet my approval"
Senator Thomas, Colorado, approved
Borah's remarks, saying that his own
speech had been anticipated" by the
Idaho senator.
