WHAT LA TOILETTE HAS DONE

Aberdeen, South Dakota News: The

strongest, most strenuous opponents

country and the future of America

est colors.
And La Toilette has not stood the
test.
Every address he has made has
been crowded with denunciation OF
the war; with attacks upon the gov
eminent of the United States; with
apologies for the murders Of which
Germany has been guilty; with com
plants because Americas young man
hood is called upon to help fight the
battles of democracy against the most
cruel enemy Of government by the peo
pie that the world has known since
history has been written
Taking advantage of his official posi-
ton as a senator of the United States
which renders him immune from ar
rest, La Toilette has said things which
would long ago have landed a mem
Der OF the Industrial Worker of the
World in federal prison at Atlanta or
Leavenworth. His talk at st. Paul
last week was scandalous. It was de-
nounced on Sunday in numerous pull
pits in the Twin cities and has been
attacked by practically every loyal
newspaper in the United States, as
well as by loyal Americans every
where To defend the action Of Ger
many in the sinking of the Lusitania
is un-American; it is more than that.
1t is an utter waste of effort to de-
fend an act that is altogether indie
feasible.
A movement is on foot to induce the
senate of the United States to expel
La Toilette from membership. This
movement should crystalline into ac-
ton. = Men like La Toilette have no
place in the senate of the United
States in time of war. They have no
place upon a platform addressing any
assemblage of American people.
