APPEALS TO PREJUDICE

In the last year of his life Abra-
ham Lincoln said he feared that the
rapidly accommodating corporation
wealth would overthrow the republic.
1t would be done, he thought, by ap-
pealing to the prejudices of the peO-
pie, and would be accomplished when
wealth had been concentrated in
few hands.
During the last campaign we have
seen many notwithstanding evidences
of what a careful judge of human
nature Lincoln was. The whole cam
paign of organized wealth and greed
against the organized farmers and
workers has been one of appeal to
prejudice.
We have seen fathers of families,
whose income was much shortened
by the prOfteers, raving against the
farmers and workers because of an
alleged free love menace. We have
| seen mothers of sons and daughters
| who must soon go out into the world
repeating the same foolishness
Why? Because crooked politicians,
| wearing the mask of responsibility
told them so. They did not seek
knowledge. They went up in the air
| on appeal to prejudice and fought
the one definite hope of protecting
| their sons and daughters against the
menace of free love.
Why do so many people fail to
realize that the free love menace is
with us, stalking the streets of the
small town as we'll as the big city,
growing as rapidly as the profiteers
are forcing more and more women
to work for less than living wages,
and more and more men to work for
less than will support a home? And
how can any clear-minded person.
| KIN owing that vice resorts are illegal
fail to realize that those now -four.
isning are paying protection tribute
to the politicians-the same polit
Clans who are defending the prof
teering which produces the unnatural
condit .ons?
On the other hand, not only was
there no basis for this charge
against the farmers and workers, but
there is no basis for such a charge
so far as we have been able to learn
against even the extreme Socialists
There is evidence to show that the
Russian revolution freed many WON
en- from the bondage of prostitution
whereas the free love DEGREES were
proved to be lying newspaper prop

I'd. The following officers were cleo.

ed. The following. officers were elec-
ted: Pres. Maynard Johnson, Vice
President, Edmond Morrell, Secre-
tary. Elsie Eklund, Treasurer, Verna
Ruddy. Edmund Morrell was chosen
rooter king. 1t was also decided to
divide the class into five groups, each
group to choose it's own presiding Of
ficers. This last organization is for
the purpose Of furthering better dis
cipline and scholarship for the class
and the entire Junior high school. The
presiding officers will be- in a meas
ure, responsible for the discipline of
his group while moving from room to
room and at all other times. The
group having the lowest standing both
in discipline and scholarship at the
end Of the six weeks term will be
obliged to furnish some sort of enter
tainment for another four groups We
hope to see decided improvement in
consequence of this last organization.

CHICAGO, April 3.-Japanese birth
rate In California Is 80 high and their
standard OF living so low that any
immigration policy other than exclu-
sion Will result In the ultimate de-
struction OF the American popula-
tion In tho West. IL not in the whole
United States. v. S. McClatchy. pub
today in luncheon address befote
the City Club.
The Japanese have neither the
ABILITY. the desire. nor the power un-
der their government to become cit
liens OF this country" Mr.. McClatchy
SAID. They are unasslmilable. They
do not care for citizenship. They ex-
pect the Japanese in this country to
remain loyal to their fathers. and
they are loyal to Japan. The chief
objection to the Japanese Is not
racial. but their knowledge that their
economical advantages make 1t hope
less for the white race to compete
with them.
Question Ii Economic.
The Japanese question Is really an
economic one. II liz simply whether
or not this nation can admit to this
country such people.
The Japanese work longer hours
for smaller pay than Americans: their
women toll in tho fields: they con-
centrate In close communities: the y
have wonderful co-oueratlon. ana
they control tho produce trade, in

OF these factors they gradually drive
