How Does Your Representative
or Senator Stand on the
Suffrage Issue?

OulIIdSC 1SSuC
Are you willing that amendments should be
adopted that violate its express provisions?
Do you believe that the Fathers of the State knew
what they were doing when they provided that the
Legislature Shall have no power to add to, alter,
abolish or infringe any part of this Constitution?
Do you propose to turn to $50 men the right
to overthrow what the builders of Vermont set up for
the organic law?
If not find out where candidates stand who seek
to represent you in Montpelier next January. Ask
them they will submit all future proposals of amend
ment to the people, whether they come from Vermont
or Washington
Tell them you want to be consulted about your
own business.
1t is proposed to ratify an amendment to the Fed
eral Constitution providing for woman suffrage with
out consulting thepeople of Vermont
That amendment strikes squarey at vermonts
right to regulate the suffrage, which is the very
OF popular government.
Ask your would-be representative or senator
where he stands on woman suffrage
Ask him where he stands on supporting the Con-
stitution of Vermont.
Ask him whether he will join in a memorial to
Congress- demanding for the people the right to vote
all future amendments to the Federal Constitution
If he doesn't answer to suit you, vote against him.
If there is candidate who suits you get one to run
If no else thinks enough of Vermont to defend her
Constitution yourself.
Don't let man represent your town or county
who isn't pledged this issue way or another.
Give your representative your personal mandate at
the polls.
If women want to vote let them get the suffrage
squarey, fairly and in the orderly process of egsa
ton. We don't believe they want it any other way

"WICKISM" TO FIGHT

The coup of the anti-Heckman forces in Juneau, involving as it did number of prominent Wickersham leaders in the terri tOrial capital, is a plain indication that 'Wickism" is preparing to make a hard fight for it's existence in Alaska. Politically speaking, The Citizen has no interest in the candidacy of J. R. Hickman for the re- publican national committeemanship of the territory Whatever candidate is success full in the election this paper expects no political plums to fall in it's back yard nor has it any political axe to grind.
 But, while The Citizen is democratic publication, it puts first of all things the best interests of Alaska, regardless of poli- tics And tho the republican party never again attain control of the government, whether or not it remain forever in the minority in Alaska, neither it nor the democratic party can do the work for the good of the territory they both would like to achieve as long as "Wickism" obtrudes itself into the political life of the North. We believe that Mr. Hickman with a large number of other sane republicans realize that fact. And we hope that the number of that class is sufficiently large to bring about the elimination of the objectionable element at the coming primary elections.

The evidence seized in the latest raid made by agents ol the department of jus tice establishing beyond doubt the revolu- tiouary activities and purposes of the radi- calls in this country demonstrates forcibly the imperative need o. stringent action against tlaCt.ass ol persons.

RADICAL INCONSISTENCY

The statement of the department of despatches, that the anarchists arrested in weekend raids have already engaged at torneys to fight their deportation and take advantage of every technicality of the law, while it occasions no surprise, does furnish an apt illustration of the curious mentality of the reds.
 Without doubt the greater part, if in fact not all, of those arrested are opposed to all forms of government For the Amer ican system they have shown persistent hatred and it is their attempts to bring about its downfall which have brot them up for deportation.
 But the first thing they do when they get into trouble is to seek protection under the very governmental forms which they have been so assiduously trying to destroy. In fact, in anticipation of just such state of affairs, it is stated that they had big fund ready to hire attorneys when the need should arise.
 This has been the history of deporta- tion cases since the first one was brot by the immigration bureau Few, if any aliens, reds whose antag0nism to organized gov ernment got them into trouble, were ready to submit to deportation as a result of the orderly processes of the department. WritS of habeas corpus have been persistentIy sought and says Commissioner General Caminetti, in his last annual report 'most vigorous efforts have been made to have the courts set aside the powers conferred upon the administrative branch by con- gress with regard to the subject of immi- grafton control"
 Reds of this type have forfeited all claims to consideration and. protection of the law which they openly defy and de nounce. Proceedings instituted by them are mockeries and constitute a travesty on judicial proceedings.
 An absolute enforcement of the laws we now have and immediate enactment of even more stringent legislation is one of the country's greatest needs today.

The senator declares that the intro duction had nothing in connection with the report made by the commission on the operations of the Chicago packers despite the fact only the Chicago office of the com mission the staff of accountants and clerks employed there being the only ones assail- ed. The first preamble of the resolution charges entrenched socialism in the Fed eral Trade Commission but Mir. Watson s specifications dealt with its force making the packers investigation
 Whatever may be the result of the scn- ate investigation as to the private beliefs of those mentioned the result of the commits sion's inquiry and report on the Chicago packing house industry proves conclusively that their official work was efficiently done. The report carried recommends tions that the department of justice insti- tute court proceedings against the packers for the purpose of accomplishing certain things necessary to prevent a complete domination by the packing interests of the entire food supply sources of the United States. Wednesday Attorney General Palmer informed the senate agricultural committee that he had no intention of start ing action against the Chicago packers saying that the latter have done voluntarily those things which the Federal Trade Com mission recommended the department of justice to take steps to compel them to do. In other words the case made out by the commission was so strong, the packers would not even wait for 1t to be taken to the courts.
 The senate Investigating committee may find that some of the employees and even officials have socialistic views. That would constitute no crime in the United States The second whereas in the resolu- tion imputed bolshevism to them but Sen ator Watson's specifications failed to bring out an instance of such and the only ground for such a charge seems to have been in the conclusion stated by the Indiana sen ator from the floor of the senate chamber that socialism and bolshevism are funda mentally the same, which is refuted by the very alignment of socialist and communist groups everywhere.

COMMISSION INVESTIGATION

The senate committee named Wednes- day for an investigation of the activities of the Federal Trade Commission is created under a resolution introduced October 20, last year, by Senator Watson ill which it was declared:
 Whereas there is reason to believe that a number of the employees of the Fed eral Trade Commission have been, and are, engaged in socialistic propaganda and in the organization and growth of socialistic organizations: and
 Whereas, if bolshevism, with all that 1t implies, is to be met and overcome in our country, it must be done by first oust- ing all its adherents and advocates from the public office: Therefore be it
 Resolved in the senate of the United States, that the committee on interstate commerce of the senate is hereby authoriz- ed and directed, by subcommittee or other wise to inquire into and report at the earli- est practical date the truthfulness of these charges: etc."
 In support of his resolution Senator Watson concluded a bitter attack on the commission by saying: ''I trust have men, toned enough to demonstrate that that of flee (the commission office in Chicago) was, during all that period center of radi- calism, nesting place for socialists, a spawning ground for sovietism, and that, while protesting to investigate business with view to eradicating it's evil features, they constantly plotted for tfe destruction of the business they wYe charged to in- vestigate and for the confiscation and col lective ownership of all the means for the creation and distribution of wealth."

Before the treaty had ever been pre- sented to the senate, in fact before the final draft of the league of nations had been adopted by the Versailles conference, ccr- tain republican leaders had determined their policy. Instead of regarding it as a partisan issue of great national import. they viewed 1t as case for the political court involving the trial of President Will son rather than the treaty itself. As skilful lawyers they have addressed themselves to the consideration of the issue from that standpoint. All of their arguments are the pEeadings of counsel seeking verdict for his client regardless of the justice of the cause rather than the impartial and imper- sonal proceedings that should govern the consideration of an issue so highly import ant to not only America but all the world. They seek to get before the public, not the whole truth, as Mr. McCumber openly ad- mits, or rather charges, but only such DOT tons and half truths as will Substantiate their arguments when the whole truth would put an entirely different construc. ton on the matter Such is the course, marked by the most intense bitterness to- ward Mr. Wilson, that has been followed by the majOrity, or republican senator's, after they were unable to sWerve the leaders from their deliberately selected policy, instead of voting against those things which they had denounced from the floor of the sen ate chamber cast their votes with their party leaders for the destruction of the very heart of the treaty of peace
 Ample opportunity for reconsideration, for compromise, has been allowed the sen atc Not only has it not taken advantage of ii, but Mr. Lodge, floor leader of the ma jority, has openly stated that as far as the senate Is concerned the treaty Is dead.
 The treaty being dead in the senate. which must ratify any treaty before it can become effective, two courses are left open to President Wilson. First, he might try 10 reopen negotiations and make new treaty. But he has no assurance that aln treaty he may negotiate would be ratified by the present senate. Rather is the rc- verse indicated by its whole attitude The second and final recourse he has is an ap- peal to the people, It is regrettabIc that such all appeal entails considerable delay. Ii is to be hoped that it will yet not be made necessary, that the ''bitter cndels' may yet recede from their unyeIding atti- Iudc and ratify the treaty in such shape that the underlying principle of the league of nations may be preserved intact But should it prove necessary after all efforts to make the league an issue in the next campaign, President Wilson will be sure to have the support of a united democratic party.

BOLDLY SELFISH

The fundamental difference between men of the type of President Lewis and Secretary Green of the United Mine Work CTS and those radical labor leaders who are seeking to oust the former from control ill the national union is forcibly brot out by the views expressed by each side in Mon days session of the Mine Workers con- vention in Columbus
 The views of President Lewis and Ma tlonal Secretary Green are those of law abiding American citizens and their action such as was to have been expected from citizens of that type. On the other hand, the radicals openly express their contempt of the law, of the government and of the will of the majority of their fellow citizens
 They show themselves to be dema- gogues who are endeavOring to secure for labor an unfair, illegal and ruinous control of American industry. They would insti- tute the rule of the minority, and very small one at that, for that of the majority.
 The view of the law-abiding citizen Is we'll expressed in the report made by the national officers which declares that the strike as strike was short lived and under the processes of the government degener- ated into a contest between the government (which is the people) and group of work men. The refusal of the national officers to consider fighting the government needs no explanation, it is easily understood by loyal citizens. The result that would have fol- lowed such refusal is also understood by President Howat, of the Kansas district union, who when brOt up for contempt of court, ordered his men to return to work upon the agreement of the government to drop the proceedings.
 Cold selfishness is at the bottom of the radical attempt to gain control of the coal miners national organization. No consid- eratiop~of public welfare enters into their calculations They are themselves secret believers in syndicalism, sabotage, and the political general strike-men who wish to overthrow the constitution and establish a new order of life, an order by which the control not only of the industries, but of every phase of public life would be in the hands of the leaders of labor, or they are

The closed shop is detrimental to the citrus industry. This was declared as with one voice by members of the Los Angeles county farm bureau when one of their members at recent meeting proposed this stand as a motion. Not only the citrus growers, but the farmers in other lines of agricultural endeavor in California; are, al most to man, opposed to labor unions in agriculture.

WILSON Eaogl15aE LOGICAL

The ueoHu ."olsing President Wilson's stan. oa a league of nations adopted g.. by ae democratic party leaders a. .e um 5miuee meeting contains .. e suggestion made by Mr. Wilson h. age to the com mJtcemu and other. ndin1 the Jack son Day bu#a. m view of the attitude assumed by tine republican leaders in the senate, u consideration o their mremit- ting attacks on Nh. Wilson's adninistra- ton. attacks which for giciousness and studied iusoLueo have no parallel in the political history e. fife country, the com mittee could have taken ao other stand nor MT. Wilson made amy other recommenda- tion regarding the league unless he backed completely down
 The proposal to carry the question di- rect to the American people must not be considered mdependeutly of the whole treaty affair It is but single incident and in the igbt of events leading up to it, it is but logical development of what has gone before. Seven months of considera- tion has been given the treaty by the sen ate without result. Students of that docu ment have stood amazed at the course pur- sued by the opposition. They have watch ed senators ignore the most important parts of it in order to carry on a fight against Mr. Wilson. Addressing the sen ate regarding the opposition's course, Sen ator McCumber, who voted for the com. mittee reservations when the test came, declared: If fact stands in the way of their forensic eloquence so much the worse for the fact" Admitting that oratory travelled faster than truth. he said that "I am cerain that truth will travel longer, and upon that I base my hope that in the end the American people will understand the true meaning and true purpose of the league of nations; not understand it to be perfect, because it is very far from being perfect, in my opinion, but understand that it is right step in the right direction; and that it is not subject to many and most of the criticisms that are being urged against it.
 'What have complained of, and still condemn is not that their declarations have been devoid of any sembance of truth but that they consistently avoid presenting the whole truth"
