"Rope Cure Urged
For Traitors by
Former G,ouernor

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Former
Governor Samuel NJ Ralston, OF Indi-
ana, suggests the rope cure for trail
tors and expresses the opinion that the
sooner the authorities administer the
cure the better it will be for the coun-
try.
Mr.. Ralston, who is here on business
before two of the departments, said to-
day:
The overwhelming majority Of the
people Of Indiana strongly is support
ing our Government war policy. In
diana, as state, will make any sacri-
fices that she may be called upon to
make in support of the Federal Admin
istration in so far as the same have to
do with the war in which our country
is involved.
While this represents the feeling
of the people in general, 1t neVerthe-
less is regrettable fact that we have
some people who prefer to remain 81
lent on the war situation. l think it is
pretty generally understood that a
man who is not talking in support of
our Government really is in sympathy
against it. / think the time already is
here when persons guilty of treason
should go to the gallows.
There is no halfway ground to
take. A man either is for this country
or he is against it. If he is for it he
is a partiot Otherwise he is a traitor
and should be dealt with accordingly.
This country is sending the pick and
flower of its young manhood to the
trenches, and he who remains at home
to fire upon them from the rear de
serves no better fate than to swing at
the end of a rope"

Must Have License

States Attorney Jones has receiv-
ed an opinion from the Attorney
General of South Dakota relative to
the state license required for fish
ing on Big Stone Lake. The attor-
ney general holds that as the mid
die Of the lake is the dividing line
between the two states, and that a
resident Of Minnesota must have a
South Dakota license to fish on this
side Of the lake. We understand
that the Minnesota attorney general
has rendered a like opinion as to a
South Dakotan resident fishing on
the Minnesota side, and that he
must have a Minnesota license.
While the local state game ward
ems regret the annoyance and SEEM
ingly unneighborliness that this oc-
casions, nevertheless it appears to
be the law, and will be SO enforced
until a test case is made, and the
law decided otherwise.
