Traitor "Traitor!
Whenever democrat in con-
gress attempts an exposure of re-
publican corruption, he is ac-
cused of "sympathizing with the
rebellion" If Ire demonstrates
against the squandering of the
public money upon inaolent, inn
pudent negroes, he is called a
"traitor." If he express the opin-
ion that army contractors are
plundering our treasury, he is
seeking to clog the operations OF
the government, and is, therefore,
'sdisloyal." He sees thieves blee-
ding the treasury at every pore
contractors pocketing their ill.,
gotten millions a reckless waste,
i .damning extravaganza on every
hand, yet if he opens his mouth to
condemn, the cry of ''traitor!"
sstreason!" is raised, and the steal
ing and waste ere continued as
usual. Men in and out of con-
gress, whose Golfers have been
filled by dishonest means, have
found thus far, this simple cry a
protection. If accosted at the
moment their hands are busy
p)undering, they will only tarn
half way round, below "treason,'
and then complete the theft. Old
Lieb, with his millions Of dollars
stolen from the government, calls
every democrat "traitor' who
attempts to bring hi:a te Ell &C
count for his villainy.
Every government thief has at
his tongues end the werd "trea-
son" and traitor" to hurl at dem
ocrats who would oppose the
robberies that have been perpe-
trated since the inauguration Of
the present administration. But
this sort of things will not long
shield orr public plunderers. 1t
is convenient now, and with this
Congress, all-powerful; but the
time is nearly at hand when it
will fail to stave off investigation.
The people begin to see the en-
ormities it lIas soHsht to conceal,
and will soon place in power men
who will lift the veil and expose
them in all their hideous naked
ness. They begin to see that the
wrong side of the house is an
athematized as s'traisors" that,
if such men are "traitors," then
traitors LEAH our armies, fight our
battles, and stand most steadfast
ily by our constitution.
Time, a little time, and the
avenging rod will descend, and
loyal democracy will stand forth
