It was urged that the authorities of of Wyoming and the Unitéd government be called upon to representations to the British au- thorities in the name of humanity and justice, The resolution follows: “Whereas, The imperialist govern- ment of Britain holds imprisoned in Brixton, England, Terence MacSwiney, mayor of Cork, Ireland, against whom no charges have been preferred and to whom no opportunity has been afford- ed, and “Wher brutaliy ale as, This is but one of a series of outr: similar in kind and char-) acter and covering the whole country of Ireland and being continuously per- d until the inhabitants, with- ause or even pretext, are in terror ids, imprisonments, robberies, rendering life and liberty at the whim of military despots, who are upheld by the Lloyd George govern- ment as, a settled policy which even; that government is ashamed to confess, and “Whereas, Our country, the United States, entered the world war presum- and avowedly that the principle of self-determination of peoples be the governing political principle of all na- tions great and small, and The only offense of Ter- is the acceptance of ple as applying to his native land; Therefore, “Be It Resolved, en by this meeting of American citizens (many of us world wer veterans) and of the Ancient Or- der of Hibernians of the State of Wy: ming, called together in Casper to con- sider the case of Terence MacSwiney and other Irish patriots, do most em-} phatically condemn the brutality, andj heinousness of the British government in these cases and in the whole of its savage and terroristic misgovernment} of the people of Ireland, and “Be It Further Resolved, That this meeting records its admiration of and renders homage to the gallantry and courage, the unflinching determination and unwavering fortitude with which this glorious Irish martyr, Terence MacSwiney has endured the agonies of starvation, second by second, minute by minute, day by day for thirty-six days that the brutality of the British gov- “VACATION’ COAL | ‘STRIKE CALLED}: (OFF BY MINERS NEW WILLIS SPE atta a aa [PROGRESSIVES TO SUPPORT cies, \experiments and half-baked theo- ries. |There is neither logic nor reason | (Continued from Page 1) back of the thing’ that party advo. of failure. Its lack of efficiency is why it balled up the management of war. Its lack of business sense and expe ence is why it went hog wild in nancial affairs and wasted the peoples’ tax money and Liberty bond savings. Its lack of conscience is why it lied to the people in 1916 with reference to the war. That, same lack accounts for the attempted ‘deceptions in the pres- ent campaign in its visionary league of nations scheme, and the rest of its platform the promises in which no man can rely upon. “Progressives will not seek out the disintegrating party of democracy to join. It would be the last thing a Progressive would think of doing, “When the Progre followers of Theodore Roosevelt cross over to join their old: commander on the other side they will have kept their honor bright and can render an accougting of their stewardship without sham! They will have done just as he would have done, supported Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge, “fought -with them and for them to rid the country of the curse of Wilsonism and the dangers of Cox- ism. “We approve Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge. They represent our ideals in sane and progressive govern- nrént. They were the friends, and true friends of our lamented leader. We shall never forget«that Warren Hard- ing was great enough to rise above the petty matters of factional politics and do his full share, to help Colonel Roose- velt_when he asked the privilege of fering his own life, together with those, of all of his sons in battle for the flag they all loved. . it would be treason to the memory of Theodore Roosevelt to vote 4 Woodrow Wilson."* (By “United.
