THE PLAIN TRUTH

The following from Leslie's
Weekly certainly does speak the
plain truth: There is loud COM
plant at the hyphenates, men
who link the country of their
adoption to the country of their
birth, misleading of standing I'M
der one flag. An appeal is made
to these to put patriotism before
pride of birth. It is an entire
ly proper appeal. Every good
citizen is a citizen of only one
country, giving it his first and
last allegiance. But what about
congressman who represent, not
the national spirit, but only To-
calities, who ignore legislation
intended for the public good and
seek only to advance the inter-
ests of the districts which they
represent, in other words the
congressman Of the pork bar
rel" variety? Are these more
patriotic than hyphenates? Let
the neglect of public business,
the failure to build up an ade-
-quate navy and to provide an
army and coast defenses answer
the question"
