But genuine democracy" tri-
umphed over all these sinister in
trigues. The United States general
hegan a counter-offensive against
the vile offensive of all these polit-
ical parties, and carried the day.
Mr.. Harold Norman Denny, as war
correspondent of this magnificent
battle to establish democracy, shows
us how General Mccoy crushed the
enemy's columns one after the other:
'The National Election Board,
headed by General Mccoy, ruled
out all parties except the liberal
and conservative"
at barred Corea from the ballot
on the ground that in 1926 the
liberal-republicans had lost their
title as a holdover party"
''The other so-calIed parties
were dropped from consideration,
according to word from Managua,
when they failed to present their
claims in response to General Nc
| COy's invitation"
1.-THE conservatives also were
dealt with decisiveIy. General
Mccoy refused to recognize either
the Cuadra Pasos or the Chamorro
candidates and called on the fac
tions to get together"
AS result of simplified democ-
racy there remained only VITO can
didates in the field, the "liheral,"
Moncado, a bourgeois college pro
lessor, and the conservative, Adolfo
Bernard, "a wealthy sugar manufac-
turer and representative of the
ancient conservative aristocracy."
Now Take Your Choice.
On November 4 the Nicaraguan
people, the peasants and workers of
Nicaragua, have the right to choose
between the bourgeois college pro-
fessOr and the wealthy sugar manu-
facturer. And we can assure every
body that there will be no election
fraud. Everyone can deposit his
vote freely" and certainly we can
believe it, when Mr.. Kellogg and his
state department assures US that
the united states government does
not care whether the bourgeois pro-
fessor or the wealthy sugar manu-
facturer will be elected. Why should
| it care? 1t knows they both are in
the pay of United States imperial
ism.
Both candidates of United States
Imperialism for the Nicaraguan
presidency have already made an
nouncements demanding "the con-
tinuation Of American military con-
troll in Nicaragua" Moncada. the
liberal candidate, addressed a let
ter to Bernard, the conservative can
didate, suggesting that American
military supervision should be main
tanned not only on November but
in the coming 1882 election, and
Mr.. Bernard, the wealthy sugar man.
ufacturer, replied that 81 welcome
with enthusiasm your laudable idea
to maintain at other constitutional
times free suffrage under the
friendly mediation of the govern
| ment of the United States" At the
same time he proposed United
States high commission to control
all revenues of Nicaragua and solve
the financial problems of the coun-
try, and to make it complete, he
made third proposal also. He re-
quested the United States govern
ment to Sustain the National Guard
in its n-political form which it has
been given by the government of
the United States" The National
Guard is Nfficered by United States
marines and is an instrument of
United States imperialism.
Prepares Permanent Rule.
The working class of the United
States must take note of these new
developments in Nicaragua. The
beast of prey of United States i'm
perialism is crouching for a new
spring, for the permanent military
occupation of Nicaragua. The No
vember Nicaraguan elections
under the military dictatorship of
United States Imperialism must be
answered in the November cleo
tons in the United States. The
working class of America nnust give
a clear, unambiguous answer to the
brazen attempt to establish a mill
tary dictatorship in Nicaragua. No
vember in Nicaragua and N0vem-
her in the United States are but
two sides of the same issue. The
American working class must under
stand that it cannot defeat the mas
ter class of the United States, if it
does not help to liberate the Mica
raguan people and the peoples of all
other American colonies and semi
colonies from the oppression of
United States imperialism.
A heavy Communist vote on No
vember 6 will be demonstration
against United States imperialist
rule in Nicaragua.
The Communist vote must be a
protest against the infamous war
waged on the Nicaraguan people.
Demand Withdrawal of Troops.
The Communist vote must express
the demand for the immediate with
drawal of all United States troops
