Hits Super-Government. America will destroy America if its citizens “bend their necks to tyranny, become superservient to the power of dollars and are false to their gloriQus heritage,” Meredith Nicholson, Indiana author, said in a speech before the Wisconsin Teachers' association recently held in Milwaukee. He reviewed the political situation in Indiana, which he characterized as “a breaking down of government under law.” o . “Super-government of the Ku Klux Klan and intimidation of lawmake:s ;and government executives by the Anti-Saloon league,- has brought irs inevitable result.” “The abandonment of local right and duties by failure of small political units to cling to their privileges has weakened the whole political fabic. : “Indiana furnished the best example of the failure of popular govem-l ment offered by any American éom-1 monwealth, The fault lies in the people themselves. Failure of citizens to vote and “in-l erlocking of business and politics” he be blamed for the political ills of the day. : | “You need not fear that I shall say“ ehre what I have not said at home,” he said, “but it is with shame that I must confess that Indiana just now furnishes the best instance of the failure. of popular government that has been offered by an American commonwealth. . 1 " Electing the attorney for the Ku Klux Klan as mayor of the city of Indianapolis is another exhibition of the weakness of the body politic of the Hoosier state. The Indianapolis city coqncil and the republican officials at the state capital are all tarred with the same article. |
