LOCAL SOCIALISTS PASS RESOLf.
TIOX (OXDEMMXG POLICT.
Calls Mobilization an Insult to All
Liberty Loving People. t
The local socialist party has passed
a resolution dealing with the maneu
vers of troops on the Texas border.
The resolution says In detail.
La Grande, Ore., March 28. To His
Excellency, William H. Taft, president
of the United Statrs: Sir We, social
ists of La Grande, Ore., cannot longer
refrain from voicing our indignation
at your acts In relation to Mexico.
"Call Off the Dogs of War."
This mobilization of troops along
the Mexican border is an insult to all
liberty loving citizens of the United
States,' whose ancestors once fought
for their religious and political free
dom. ..- v
Let the common people, the peons,
slaves of Mexico free themselves from
their yoke of tyranny, from their bar
barous despots, without intimidation
from a sister republic, whose Statue
of liberty stands lighting the world.
What cause have we to war at the
decree of those capitalists who have
Invested their wealth In Mexico, who
have bought the fruitful soil and en
slaved a liberty loving people to sati-
the iztuiuu greed and fill the cof
fers of tyrannical barbarians. .
You say: "We must protect Ameri
can interests." What interests , have
we, the common' people of this coun
try, to protect In Mexico? What In
terests the government? Our lands
have not been laid waste, our citizens
terrorized, our country Invaded. No
laws of neutrality have been violated.
No speculative Mexican adventurers or
ring of industrial freebooters warrants
this country In Interfering with the po
litical destinies of Mexico, which these
commercial vultures have Invaded and
espoiled upon their own responsibil ¬
ity.,
If this be treason, then the lust for
gain and greed have usurped liberty
and Independence has become an emp
ty mockery.
It Is also ordered that a copy of
this letter be sent to Senator Geo. E.
Chamberlain, Representative Abraham
W. Lafferty and the La Grande Even
ing Observer and Morning Star re
spectively. (Signed) Frank B. Hou
stan, Chairman; Bird F. Lewis, Secre
tary.
THURSDAY, APRIL 6; 1911.
nf tnfonti. lmDresslnjt upon their
minds their duty to the state to "make
good,', and as the Shasta continued its
Journey northward, amid deadening
applause, he closed his remarks wita
bis famous congratulatory words con
cerning the "baby crop" of Oregon.
The president Is looking hale and
hearty. He seemed a little travel
worn, and was just a little, bit hoarsei
the result of his many speeches on
his triumphant coastal tour. .He is
just as optimistic and genial as ever
and looks as young as he did ten years
ago.
