PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

The United States senate by vote

THE United States is the

The United States is the
country of all its citizens, and
all who have a vote have a
voice in the government, all
have the right to study the
government, to help shape its
policies and correct its imper-
fections, to discuss its internal
or international affairs more
or less calmly and dispassion-
ately. Also all citizens owe
allegiance to their govern
ment and are expected to
stand by their government
when it is for any cause
arrayed in war against any
foreign government. Any
other course exposes a citizen
t. the charge of disloyalty and
punishment for treason. a
government when involved in
war seeks to stamp out dis
loyalty among its citizens, for
if allowed to proceed un-
checked disaffection may
grow into serious internal
strife or eliminate in revolu-
ton. The stability of any
government depends upon the
loyalty of its citizens. This
brings US to the citizens atti-
tude toward the flag. The
flag is the national emblem
and as each citizen owes and
swears allegiance to the
national constitution, so he
binds himself on his honor to
reverence the flag. Words
and acts of disrespect to the
flag are taken as denoting dis
loyalty to the government.
Then there is the attitude of
aliens. As the disloyal citizen
may be punished by the gov
eminent for reasonable con-
duct, SO the aliens, non-citi-
zens, so,ourning in a country
may be punished as enemies
if by speech or act they show
hostility to that country's
government or disrespect for
that country's flag.
