TO EVERY LOYAL AMER
fCAN IN WISCONSIN

An insidious but persistent effort is
being made by enemies Of America,
and citizens whose Americanism does
not rise above unworthy motives, to
foment dissatisfaction and disloyalty
| in the State of Wisconsin, in order to
embarass the government of the United
States, bring the war into disrepute,
and to build up private and political
interests upon the ruins of our ma.
tional honor and the security Of gov
eminent by the people, To create dis.
sension, unrest disloyalty SIS the first
step: to turn these to the advantage
of those who are busy inspiring them,
be they agents and sympathizers OF
the German Imperial Government,
or merely selfish and dangerous in
dividuals, is the second step. The first
purpose has already made some prog
ress, the second is just now TAX
ing form in such manner as to benefit
equally the German Autocraey, and
individuals who would sell the peoples
birthright. In the sacred and abused
name Of peace, which, with honor and
| freedom, we will revere, and under
the guise Of economic Justice so
phrased as plausibly to exalt personal
advantage above national necessity,
and to appeal to every instinct for
personal comfort and to every vulner-
Il +
| able emotion, petitions are being cir
culated endorsing the insideously
subversive teachings and un-Ame1ican
activities by which Senator Robert
M. LaFollette h as misrepresented the
patriotic people Of this state.
For these petitions is sought the
signature Of every citizen Of Wiscon-
sin wholly the urge of blood ties, by
1appeal to love of ease and profit, by
blind devotion to the abstract idea of
peace, and although every possible
4 phrase Of interested motive or lack Of
| understanding, can be inveigled into
placing his hand to document
which the German Emperor would
i gladly sign. That thousands, fooled
| or faitllless, will sign these petitions
may be fully expected, AMI unless
there shall go forth to Washington
/ from the loyal sons and daughters Of
Il wisconsin, vigorous and emphatic
fepndiation of these libelous messages
of yelled sedition, this great American
state will come into. contempt and
disrepute, not only in America, but
wherever democracy prevails and
humanity is exalted. Only by counter
petitions, vigorously couched and
rapidly circulated, can the fair name
of Wisconsin be safe, and to this end
the following Wisconsin Loyalty
Petitions presented for the signature
of every Wisconsin citizen who treas

WISCONSIN LOYALTY
PETITION.

To the Congress of The United
States
we, the undersigned citizens of the
State of Wisconsin, are grieved and
Inundated by the fact that deliber-
ate and concerted efforts are being
made, BY petitions and other instru-
menttalities, to represent this patri-
otto commonwealth to the congress
OF the United States as disloyal to
the American Government in it's
hour Of peril and need. We take this
means to repudiate, in the name Of
wisconsin, every disloyal word and
deed calculated to misrepresent her
people to discourage the government
in its efforts to win the war, to give
aid and encouragement to the I'M
perial German Government, and
thereby to increase the hardships and
hazards of the. Wisconsin soldiers
who have gone or going forth to give
battle in defense of the nation and
OF democracy. We reiterate that
faith in America, Her institutions
and ideals, for which the Wisconsin
fathers fought in 1861, declare our
conviction that in the present war
America is fighting for the preserva-
tion Of the most sacred and vital
principles upon which American
institutions and freedom are found
ed, express our confidence in the Ma
tional Administrator, and pledge
our whole hearted support to the
Government of the United States.
