THROW TROUBLE
MAKERS OUT
Santa Rosa Press-DemOC

Santa Rosa Press -DemOcrat
Governor Merriam urges all patriotic Ameri-
cans TO support a movement to deport undesir-
able aliens and to curb subVersive activities of
those permitted to remain in this country. He
directs attention to the fact that not only are
large numbers Of the foreign element receiving
relief but that many, in competition with loyal
citizens are melting violence against law and
order One-eighth the population of San Quen-
tin and Folsom he points out is composed of
foreigners
The governor is right No other country on
earth Dursues SO mistakngly liberal a policy as
does the United States with respect to aliens
Why should citizens be taxed to take care of for
eign conyicts? Every one of them should be de-
ported when his prison term is ended.
With regard to urbing the 'subversve actvi-
ties Of aliens allowed to remain in the country
each of them should be kicked out as soon as
he begins making trouble. We may finch but
we are unable TO defend ourselves against the
charge that in many ways we are a Sucker
nation

to help support the family. he goU
a lob as telegraph messenger Tor
the Union Pacific Railroad IN
North Platte. He went to work
at seven o'clock at night and work
ed till the same hour the next
morning, and for this he reVelced
SIS a month.
Now this boy had a queer sort
of mind. He wanted to do more
than he was paid for So he not
only delivered the telegraph mes
sages but swept out, washed win
dows, and helped the operator. Al
so he studied telegraphy - all
this. YOU see, during his spare
time. Other boys of his age, dur
ing their free hours, were loafing
or the streets, and idling away
their time.
william Jeffers became 50 eX-
pert at his job that in four years
he was promoted to the position
of telegraph operator. Then this
unusual young man again did
more than he was being paid for.
He helped the train dispatcher.
In exactly four years, he was
made train dispatcher himself
1t had now become a fixed habit
with him to do more than he was
paid for. His policy had Wa'ked
out we'll for him, and he saw no
reason for changing it. So he
continued his method and helped
the Chief Dispatcher. The high
officials began 10 notice the young
man who pursued this unusual
policy. In no time at all, he was
moved to a much bigger job in
Denver, and still the boy from
North Platte kept on doing more
than he was paid for; and he kept
his eyes off the clock.
Well, he is now President Of the
Union Pacific Railroad and the
Boss of $4,000 men.
He still does more than he is
paid for.
His salary is 100000 a year.

Famous Sayings
Bruce Cation Says
= The Perpetual Zero Hour

A new word ought to be invent
led. Somebody ought to think up a
good, realistic word that would
mean peace, but not the state of
'affairs that has been going by
that label for so many generations
now Rather, a word to describe a
condition that has a genuinely
peaceful quality as part of its fun
damental nature, and a suggestion
of some permonency.
There might be use or a word
like that sometime. You never can
tell.

here will be no new war. that the
question is simply how long it will
take for the old World War to re-
turn to the trenches. The langu-
age is good, but it might have
trained its sights on little further
object
Lanuage of the same kind might
have been used before 1914. Smith
emphasizes that no country wants
war today. Every participant in
the World War, just before parti-
cipation became fact, declared
that war was being forced upon it.
The World War was not the
worlds first war. The question be-
fore 1914 was not when the new
war would begin, but how long 1t
would be before the old wars re-
turned to the trenches.
Afterwards, there was no new
peace. The world returned to that
old peace that has made its name
meaningless, that delusion of every
wars making that is merely a
hysterical truce whose new condi-
tions force upon it the seeds of its
own destruction.
This present War-without-
trenches can scarcely be blamed
wholly on the World War. The
deeper cause is to be found in
those primitive concepts of inter-
national relations which make
every peace" simply a little soft
music before the curtain goes up
on the next murderouS act.
During the next war-in-the-
trenches men will be wondering,
with reasonable fear, how long it
will take that comparatively brief
period of active warfare to resolve
itself into the perilous stalemate
we now have.
That is, if there are any men
left to do the wondering
