on trial. Despair is expressed be
cause in New York, in Boston, il
Chicago are found enthroned admin
istrations that are VIGOROUSLY repre-
sentative of the worst elements-tht
elements associated with commercial
" organized vice, boolegging, brib
cry and corruption and with sys
tematic violation of the law of the
land. If the decent c!tizenry hac
been disfranchised they could have
hardly less representation.
These mayors, city councils, pub
lie prosecutors, and even minor mag
istrates, include officials who are
themselves under indictment for fell
onies. Many are VIGOROUSLY in
league with the alien enemies of the
American republic and openly scott
at its best traditions and ideals. But
they all were triumphantly swept
into power in recent elections by
phenomenal majorities over and
against the protests of an almost
unanimous press and of non-partisan
'trtform organizations" whose pitt
able weakness is become the butt of
sneering jest on the part of the VIC
torious corruptionists.
On the surface, the plunderbund
seems to be justified in basing its
usurpation of office on 1.-The peoples
mandate" A count of votes SEEM
ingly names them as "the choice of
the lectorate." To the superficial
view, that appears to settle it. But
lie us go behind the returns. Our re-
publican system of government was
designed to establish and perpetuate
"a government of the people, by the
people and for the people" To pros
titute its electoral forms and meth
DDS for the defeat of the people and
the seating in power of a govern
ment of the enemies of the people,
by and for those enemies, is a re-
versal and degradation of their true
purpose.
Our naturalization laws require of
the alien applicant for American cit
izenship a solemn oath explicitly re-
nouncing allegiance to any foreign
power and pledging undivided allie
q,a-ce and support to the constitu-
tiol and the laws of the United
St2teg. A violation of that oath
constitutes perjury and perjury is a
CT me punishable by Imprisonment,
and deprivatio nof the rights of citi-
zenship.
Here is a weapon ready to hand
for the defense of democracy and
democratic institutions against as
saults of the alien enemy within our
gates and of the native-born Amer
lean found recreant to the American
faith. The conviction of crime car
ries with it disqualification for cit
zenship. Let honest watchers be put
on guard at every polling place
charged with the duty of challeng-
ing the vote of any and every man
or woman convicted of crime. Fur
ther, let every would-be voter rea-
sonably suspected of having violated
his oath to support the constitution
and the laws be held to answer for
the charge of perjury over and be-
yond prosecution for the specific
violation charge. Perjurers and 9TH
er law-breakers are not legal voters.
Their ballots, if sneaked into the bal
lot box, should be thrown out on
and scrutiny of the list of
voters. They should be prosecuted
for violation of the election laws.
