We know where we came from, nationally
speaking, but do we know where we are
going?
We came from Colonial PERIOD wherein
each settlement" grew into separate politi-
cal corporation, governing itself, ma0st1Y
Great Britain was the 'overIord," but never
ruled the colonies to any considerable extent.
When cocl1y English Prime-minister was
twitted in Parliament, with being AFRAID of
the Americans, and vaingloriously proved his
courage by levying the stamp tax, he pro-
cooked the Revolutionary War.
We are familiar with all that, and also with
the War OF 1912, which we fought on ac-
count of the manner in which Great Britain
stopped our vessels at sea, and took off British
deSerters.
We plunged headlong into desperate con-
fiict with the most powerful nation on earth,
rather than submit to the search of American
ships, which were giving illegal protection to
deSeTtcrs from the British service.
But the most terrific of our wars we fought
among ourselves; and after four years of
carnage in the field, there have been fifty
years of academic dispute as to what it was
all about
Whether to preserve the Union, or to free
the Negro, we will not now debate; but we
will accept the situation as it is-since we

One of the Civil War Amendments to the
Constitution frees our brother in black; and
he is now very free, everywhere, and is ro-
bustly asserting his right to be more so,
especially at the North where he is so uni
versally loved and fondly coddled.
In the South, we have to lynch him oc-
casionally, and fog him, now and then, to
keep him from disappearing the Almighty,
by his conduct on account of his smell and
his color.

WHAT DOES THE DEMOCRACY OF WILSON
CONSIST OF?
The amazing thing is, that these despotic
changes taking place under a so-called Dema0-
cratic regime.
There is no greater reason why we should
prepare for war, than existed during the .Ad-
mlnistratlons of Washington, John Adams,
and Thomas Jefferson.
Europe was then deluged with blood, as it
IS now. Kings and popes precipitated con-
tlnental wars, then, just as the pope and the
two German Kalsers prec pitated this one.
From the year $780, until far into the year
1915, Europe one vast field of conflict,
with armies fighting, burning, ravaging, and
desolating, from Madrid to Moscow, and from
the English Channel to the Black Sea-
hundreds or American ships were sunk or
captured: our foreign commerce was cut off:
many of our seamen were impressed into
European service
But our Presidents did not entangle them
selves in the Old World troubles.
Washington steered clear of collision with
Europe; Adams refused to be dragged into
quarrel with France; and Jefferson stopped
commerce with the Embargo, rather than run

PRUsSIANIzING OUR REPUBLIC?

Except in time of war, every citizen is free
to come and 60, work or idle provided he
violates no law.
But another revolutionary change is pro-
posed: this Administration not only Topped
to the Militarists on the question of Prepared
ness, but it declares it's purpose to compel
every y0u1og man, Is years DID, to join the
Army, and be trained for soldier
His freedom as a man IS to be taken aa0ay
from him. The parental authority is to be
ignored.
He is to be deprived of his liberty, and
forced into military training, because the
Munition Trust the Militarist League, and
the pope's three imsoZent cardinals demand It,
Do they propose to give you vote on it?
No.
Are the States to be asked for a Constitu-
tional amendment, authorizing this radical
revolution? No.
They arrogantly propose that Congress
shall usurp the Guthor5ty; and the yelled
threat is, that you a0iU be compelled to sub
mat.
In other words, they are saying boldly that
q0hich destroys the rights Of the citizen!
They will depend upon brute force to put
the usurped power into operation, just as the
P1usS5a,e noizitaristS do.

What is the excuse urged in defense of this
monstrous innovation?
They say we must be 'prepared" for
great war.

a constitutional amendment allowing the
President to order State militia out of the
State, for any other reason than the three
enumerated in the Constitution? No.
Does the Constitution limit the power of
the President to those three grounds? 1t
does
Did President Wilson, for the first time IN
our history, ignore those limits, and violate
the plain letter of our highest law? lie did.
Were you aware of this when you en-
dorsed him, renominated him, and gave him
another four years? You aUere.
What then? You sanctioned q rev0zu-
ti0nary change IN y0u' government. HOW
MUCH FARTHER ARE YOU PREPARED TO CO.?
Think it over the question is vital. You
must answer it, now, or never
Ii you wait much longer, you may as we'll
wait forever.
Speak 70o0, or forever after, hold your
peace, unless you are fond of wasting breath.
When our gallant and, too often, thought
less young men were entrapped last Summer,
by the specious, but falacious cry of DUTY
to Country !'and were hurried thousands of
miles out Of their States, the President was
bound to know that he was violating the Su-
preme Law.
He is no lawyer, but he has been a student
of the Constitution and of the structure Of
our Republic, and he knows that Congress
cannot legally give him an authority over
State troops which the Constitution with
holds from Congress.
The ~law-making power of Congress is
mgidly limited as to State militia, and no
one can know it much better than Woodrow
Wilson.
Why, then, did he trample upon qcAat he
8lC0re to respect?
Do oaths of office bind his conscience?
Does the Supreme Law command his obedi-
ence? Are the people at large given a whole
some example, when the Chief Magistrate
displays his contempt for Constitutional re-
strictions?
