Silence the Traitors.

During political campaign, or in times
of peace, we expect in this land Of fee
dom the largest liberty of speech. But in
seasons of rebellion, and at time, when
the wrongs Of nation are about being re-
dressed by arms, he that denounces the
government ridicules the efforts being
made for her protection, inter::erex with
the arming and equipment of her citizens,
or by speech or labor gives aid or comfort
to the foe, is TRAITOR, and should meet
traitors doom.
From St. John to Philadelphia, and
from Philadelphia to St. Cloud the mouths
of these madmen or rebels have been 81
fenced. In few instances it required a
little frmness and s'fst logic to secure
the end, but the frecmen Of the land de-
manded patriotism, silence or sudden emf
grafton, and they haze 1t.
The venerable Judge Wilkins, life
long Democrat, appointed committee of
one hundred Of the best citizens at Pitts
burg, the other day, to attend to just such
cases in that vicinity; and we trust that
those who preach or countenance treason
IN this neighborhood take the lint.

Stearns County Men.

We regret that the men have not shown
more patriotic enthusiasm in volunteering
for the defense of the old Stars and Stripes;
but ifa company had rendered their servi-
ces from St. Cloud we should have used
our best efforts to have had the Governor
reject them. We think it is best economy
to keep all our men at home raising wheat.
Our armies must be fed if they fight
There is no place in the United States
where q hundred bushels of wheat OF
beans can be raised with less labor than
in Stearus County. No place where 9
man can do more to serve his country by
feeling her defenders, while giving sense
Of security to the frontier by their pres

Municipal Patriotism.

Throughout the North, the cities, coun'
ties and towns are contributing their best
men and millions of dollars to equip the
volunteers and sustain their families during
the absence of the brave men who pc ril
all for their county. Several Of the coun.
ties Of Minnesota have voted $1,000 each,
for the purpose, and most of the cities
ond towns have done nobly. Even Ano-
Ia has rendered the Governor company
Of volunteers, and her citizens have sub
scribcd $1,000 toward the support Of the
families of the men. But St. Cloud and
Stearns County are too poor. They can
squander $4,000 in Bonds for a Court
House, and rcver lay the first brick they
can appropriate s25 from the county funds

Traitors.

Upper St. Cloud, headquarters Of the

traitors, who stand boldly up and ..conde,nn
the Government for putting forth an eaRior,
to preserve the national existence. And Of
that corrupt clique Of professed Republi
cans, who have eontrived to get the great
bulk Of the Federal patronage, there is
not man to volunteer an arm in her de.
fence, or subscribe dollar to the support
Of IT, ose who do! None but the old san.
guard of Freedom who fought the battle
here in SO, are found to say word in de.
tense Of our glorious old stripes and stars.
Ex.Judges,s ex-Senators,Q ex.Leeislators
are amongst these who stand boldly up
and condemn Mr.. Lincoln's determination
to avenge the national honor, and re-take
the national property. Coward, craven,
bastard should be written on the brow Of
all such truckers to- tr"ason; and We call
upon the great loyal heart of Minnesota
democracy to disown these grown up sons
Of noble mother, who stund by to see
her smitten and insulted without raising
an arm in her defence. We have not the
physical strength to 60 up street and
thrash every coward of them as they ought
to be thrashed, but we can immortalize
them. We shall publish the name and
residence Of every man We shall know to
utter reasonable sentence, in St. Cloud,
after this date. With this mark they
will stand good chance when
they visit the cities below Of getting
the foSgi"g they need; and, at any rate,
they shall have free ticket to the ''Roll

St. Cloud Guards.

This, the only organized military COM
pany in St. Cloud have not responded to
the Governors call for troops; and some
people charge them with cowardice.-
This is unjust. The St. Cloud Guards are
not towards. Last summer, in the Indian
panic, when the settlers, for circuit Of
twenty-five miles, came pouring into st.
Cloud, for protection, the Guards ran,
rather than marched, out to where they ex'
pected to meet an overwhelming number
Of hostile savagcs. They are not towards;
but they are German Democrats accustomed
to rely upon political leaders, native-born,
who are traitors and have been openly
condenning our Government for her mea-
sures of self-defense. Many too, Of them,
really believe there is danger from the In
dams here, and feel that the best service
thev can render is to stay at home and
protect the frontier Most of them have
families who would be left in state Of
cruel dread if their natural protectors
should leave; and so we beg the people Of
other places to be just to our St. Cloud
military. A general order has been issued
by the Governor for the collection Of all
the U. S. arms in the hands of companies
that do not 20 into service. The Guards
are inclined to look upon this as a special
and undeserved degradation + them, and
to reFent it accordingly; but they will
no doubt see their mistake, and obey tho
law without hesitation,
