The unseating of the five Socialist men,

developed into r. political sensation
throughout the State. The waves kicked
rp in its wake have spread from Buffalo
10 Montauk Point. The action of Speaker
sweet and the Assembly received enthusi-

generally, except in this city and a few
other points where there is large Socialist
element.
The Albany leaders are standing firmly
behind their resolution to unseat the
Socialists, and their action is said to be
! only The beginning OF Statewide attack
upon office holders Of that party.
The deposed Assemblymen were in con-
ference with their counsel practically all

Science, in this city. They issued vitriolic
statements Of condemnation of the action
OF the Assembly.

Mr.. Wilson Silent in Letter to Jackson
Day Diners oRrf1is Third
Term Attitude.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Thursday.-Presi-
dent Wilson in his message to the Jackson
Day diners here tonight said "the clear
and single way" to determine the will OF
the American people on the League of Ma
tions was to make it an issue at the next
election.
The Presidents message said nothing
whatever about third term for himself
and neither did it say even by implication
or intimation that he would not be a
candidate. as had been widely forecast.
Most all of the Presidents message was
devoted to an expression Of his argument
Of why he considered it the duty OF the
United States to join the League of Ma
tions covenant and why he considered the
war not really won until it did. Another
attempt 10 crush the new nations OF Eu-
rope would be made the President said II
the United States held aloof.
The President again expressed his atti-
tude toward reservations. much as he did
at his conference with the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, in this language
IF the Senate wishes to say what
the undoubted meaning of the treaty
is | shall have no objection. There
can be no reasonable objection to
interpretations accompanying the
act Of ratification itself. But when
the treaty is acted upon | must
know whether il means that we have
ratified or rejected it. We cannot
rewrite this treaty. We must take it
without changes which alter its
meaning or leave it, and then, after
the rest of the world has signed il,
we must face the unthinkable task Of
making another and separate kind of
treaty with Germany"
Cannot Now withdraw.

follows:

that am to be deprived Of the pleasure
and privilege of Joining you and the other
