i would rather stand up against

leave the United STATES 4 am going
n E,4iI
kill il ! have to, but If die l will die
on free American soil and not in
Europe There are thousands Of more
like me. What are You going
TO do? Are you going to defend those
men? How many in this house Will
defend those2 How many will con-
tribute toward their defense? Raise
your hands.
The only time it's an honor to wear
uniform in the United States or
England is when you are going out 10
have your bean knocked of.
England. the mistress of the high
seas; she shall be driven from her
proud eminence by bastards and out
laws. That is what England calls
Americans How on Gods green earth
any man. woman or child can give their
sons and cooperation / can not under
stand. And the one who does it is a
| traitor to the men who fought and bled
that you and might be free today.
Speaker Curses Red Gross.
Prevention is better than cure. II
every man had n red heart he would
say, To hell with the Red Cross.
The church is the greatest ally Of
capital. You people are being fooled
with this Nearer, My God. to Thee
stuff
Jesus Christ and God have got too
much on their hands. Now they're
busy on the British battle front and
tomorrow on the Germans.
i wish all the churches in this
country were put on the bum. They're
observation points for war. That's the
reason the Germans destroy them.
It's high time We drew out OF the
war.
The lucky ones going across are the
ones who go to the bottom.
You taxpayers are going to pay
damn dear for this war.
Have you read about mammals
little baby boys at Fort Sheridan?
! Canada and Australia refuse to fight
England's damned nefarious battles s.
the United States has been drawn In
to fight them.
More British officers arc killed by
their own men than by the enemy.
i In Defense Of Germany.
IF any woman. man or child tells
| me that the German race is a set OF
| barba rians l say they are set OF
damned Internal liars. People have
been IN this country attempting &c
poison the minds Of our American
youth. The best thing they can 40 Is
to shut up put up or get to hell out
of the country
In answer to the inquiry whethe,
Kitchener was dead Wallace said:
KITCHENER Is dead He went dowr
in boat blown up by one of his OWL
men. The only time I met Lord Ki'ch-
ener was in Lemnos. He Is a degen-
crate. Any man who hates his mother
is not fit to be called q man and thai
Is what Lord Kitchener said. He didn'
respect his mother. He IL dcgcncr'
ate. He is Of the old school OF Oscal
Wilde, and you all know what that is.
Wallace bitterly f1ayed y. D. Ely
Davenport attorney, who Is chairman
Of the southern district exemption
board.
The orator said:
"As to the gentleman, Mr.. Ely, Of
Mr.. Allie; he will go down and spen!
a couple Of hundred dollars for cigaret!
and silk socks for the soldiers. Tha
is advertising himself. He is gettint
notoriety. He is not going to spend hi
life there WITH the snldin-s- Nc. &c
on your tintype.
IT want that individual Ely or All
Lie to come on this platform tonight
If he is in the hall II ne doesn't HI
Is a cur, coward, a dirty degenerate
a filthy poltroon. He has got my goa
and am going TO get something from
him before I finish"
Later Wallace flied a damage SUI
