"Who were the true patriots Of France,
when recently that chastity farce Of a
military trial was enacted to sacrifice an
innocent man for the honor of the French
army and the prestige Of the French re-
public-who were the true French patri-
ots, those who insisted that the hideous
crime Of an unjust condemnation must be
persisted in, or those who bravely defied
the cry OF traitor = and struggled to undo
the wrong, and thus to restore the French
republic to the path Of justice and to the
esteem Of the world?
"Who are the true patriots in America
today-those who drag our republic, once
80 proud Of it's high principles and ideals,
through the mire Of broken pledges, vul.
gar ambitions, and vanities, and criminal
aggressions- who do violence to
their own moral sense by insisting that,
like the Dreyfus iniquity, criminal
course once begun must be persisted in,
or those who, fearless Of the demaeogue
clamor, strive to make the flag of the re.
public once more what it once was-the
flag OF justice, liberty, and true civiliza-
ton, and to lift up the American people
among the nations Of the earth to the
proud position Of the people that have
conscience and obey it?
II here declare my profound conviction
that If this administration of our affairs
were submitted for judgment to popular
vote on a clear issue 1t would be con-
demned by an overwhelming majority.

people will prove themselves too clear.

Australian Billy Smith Knocked
Out An Assassin.

Australian Billy Smith had q narrow
escape from being seriously stabbed
by y Mexican last night In the plaza
but his pugilistic abilities saved
him.
He undertook to arrest q ~villanous
looking Aztec who was pointed
out by q another Mexican as being the
man who han robbed MIN.
That's the man who stole my mo-
ney," SAID a Mexican to the ex-prizs
lighter, pointing to another Mexican
who was some distance away.
Australian Billy walked straight up
to the man and called to him to halt.
The man ran his right and carelessly
into his pocket and hen doubled up
his fist n squared himself as if he in
tended to fight with his bare hands.
Billy struck straight out from the
shoulder and the Aztec fell like al Ok.
AS he oiled over something clutched
tightly in his right hand Cleaned in
the moonlight. The policeman stoop-
ed and picked it up. 1t was the six
inch bladeo of a a $ knife ground to a
fine point, its handle wrapped in rags,
SO that the wielder of the weapon
might get q frmer grip on IL during an
emergency.
