He declared that ne has q record Of the
dates and amounts Of the contributions
and the dates and purposes OF tho dis
Part OF one contribution Of sa.5oo. he
said, was returned to Stephenson as tho
money was not needed.
MARINETTE. Wis. Nov. l6.-In the
review Of the "reminiscences Of ex-sen-
ator Stephenson sent from Washington
appears an error to which Mr.. Stephen
son has called attention. The Washing
ton report credited Senator La Toilette
with an offer to return half Of the
amount Stephenson had contributed to-
ward his subernatorisl campaign.
No such offer was ever made by
La Toilette, according to Stephenson.
He declared that La Toilette never re
turned any Of the money given to him:
The paragraph in question should
have read "Stebbins." as II was the
latter who offered to return the half of
the $500 which the Marinette man had
given him to forward his campaign. and
which was designed ultimately for the
benefit of the La Toilette gubernatorial
battle. The paragraph with the change
would then read as follows: This much
having been accomplished, Mr.. Stebbins
came to me and offered to return half
the money had given him.

FOREIGN PLOTS ON OUR SOIL


A year or two ago it was discov-
cred that there was no law under
which effectively to reach an unde-
sirable citizen who had employed
telephone communication as means
to represent himself as member Of
Congress. bearing gifts to big busi-
ness, in return for which he wanted
a consideration. The discovery be-
ing made, Congress passed a law to
meet the situation.
The plots directed from abroad
and carried out in this country, for
the destruction Of factories, attacks
on railroads, blowing up or firing Of
ships, and the like, have developed
another like situation. There is no
law dealing with such cases. The in
genuity Of the foreign criminals
who have been employing such
methods to cripple industry in this
country has been able to carry on
plots without violating laws d.
rectly aimed against such things. It
is now announced that the Depart
ment Of Justice Is considering the
employment Of the Sherman anti
trust act as a weapon Of defense
against such doings. Tho theory is
that these plots against industry
and transportation amount to con-
spiracies against interstate and
foreign commerce.
It is a new and edifying stretch Of
the policy and purpose Of that act,
already serving a multitude of
dubious utilities that its authors
never dreamed should be associated
with It. It is time for a segrega-
ton OF these various alleged signifi-
cations Of the law, and for deter
mining legislatively what that act
is about It is fast becoming tho
omnibus statute against about ev-
erything that is not reached by any
other law. Congress will, Of course,
be called upon to give attention to
the specific need for measures
through which to cope with the
bomb plotters and munitions con.
spirators. and It will be a most deli
cate subject to handle. for It in
wolves determination Of a policy for
dealing with conspiracies that are
distinctly international in charac-
ter, and that concern our relations
with countries nominally friendly
with US. But there must be recog-
milton Of the facts, and a determine
ton to be vigorous In dealing with
these amazing conditions. II war
is to be made on our soil by enemies
who maintain the pretense Of diplo-
matte friendliness, then measures
must be devised that will tear away
the mask and expose and deal with
the sinister fact Of hatred and vio-
lence back Of the sham Of friendli-
ness.
This legislation Is going to be
among the most important consid-
cred by the coming session. There
will be no excuse for palaver and
weakness in framing it. The facts
must be called for by Congress, and
If necessary they must be commu-
nicated to it or its committees in
proper confidence; but the facts
must be somehow placed In posses
sion of the men who are to frame
new laws.
