From Russia they came. and to Russia they should be made to go. In Russia right now they can find more liberty than they know what to do with. We have laws on our statute books that provide for their deportation. and allaliens like them. If our Government officials will proceed under the Federal laws which wehave enacted here in Congress. and deport those aliens who come here undertaking to tell how to run our Government and our affairs. we will have less trouble from these strikes. What kind of a socialistic government do these alien agitators desire to give usthe Russian kind. the German kind. or no government at all but anarchy and destruction. loot and plunder. murder and savagery? Why have not the deportations started? People can think of that as they are suffering from strikes which paralyze every activity in two great cities of the Pacific Northwest. I have often wondered why it is that so many people in the United States are willing that these foreigners shall continue to come.
