the right of self government would not be ours
In recent years have witnessed the destruction
many democratic governments throughout the world
the enhralment of dictatoral power as substitute
for sefgovernment. This preceded by cynical
attitude toward the right of segovernment and demo-
cratic institutions.
The seizure of power by the dctators was made pos
sble by the destruction of confidence in the democratic
governments. They have into power in many cases
by of minories because Of the failure OF the
orty of citizens in those countries TO avail themselves
of their sovereign night to use the ballot
There evidence of similar trend in our
country.
The man who stays at home election day is the
criticize the public officials selected those who
do participate.
The man who stays at home election day en-
courages arrogant and ambitious people to believe they
usurp the power of government and substitute their
own will for that Of the sovereign citizens.
What sacrifice would the citizens of Germany and
Italy make today regain their right of sefgovernment
The man who stays home on election day is an enemy
Of democracy does injustice not only to himself
but to all his fellow citizens.

Those who made possible the
right of self-government in this coun-

in order to establish here on this con-

 A bulkhead was put UP in the hold to shield the dynamite and the longshoremen resumed work. If local efforts to settle the dispute fail, Craycroft instructed the Juneau union, the matter should be sub mitted to Seattle mediators for arbitration.
