TRAITORS TO THEIR COUNTRY.


'fhe mad rawlings of such papers as
the New York World and the New
York Evening Post tread dangerously
near the line of treason to their coun-
try. They certainly show lack of
patriotism that is censurable.
Up to the moment when every mem
Der in both branches of the Federal
Congress voted to approve and carry
into effect the declarations in the
Presidents message, every American
citizen had moral right to declare
Great britain was right, that the Mon
roe doctrine had no binding froce, and
to decry the contention of Venezuela.
But from the day that Congress acted,
no citizen of America had any more
moral right to denounce the action of
the government than they would have
if war had actually been declared. The
action of the Executive and Congress
fixed the position of this government,
and every citizen who puts duty to his
country first ought to put the cause
of his country ahead of his personal
views.
Mr. Cleveland does not want war.
His supporters hope it can be averted.
But III the most solemn manner it has
been decreed by the people, through
their representatives, that the Monroe
doctrine shall be maintained at any
cost.
are not those who are working up
denunciation against this solemn ac-
ton. morally traitors to their coun-
try?
