Thursday, Auga~ 1G, 1917.


On February Goth, he went before Con-
oress and announced his matured decision.
He declared for armed neutrality, and de-
manded that Congress invest him with the
power of Dictator, until the regular De-
cember session, 1917.
Eleven EEwilful men" resisted this unprece-
denied demand, and were duly denounced,
burnt in efigy, cartooned, &C.
Senators LaFollette, Cummins, Stone, and
Vardaman were among those Wllful men who
would not give Professor Wilson DICTATOR
ship-and their efforts were futile, because
Wilson has been the absolute Dictator or the
Congress now in session.
He had no sooner coralled them in Wash
ington, than he went before them, April End,
and cast the armed neutrality to the winds.
The Russian collapse had t0hen place; and
American lives, by the million, must be de-
voted to the Russian task, else the billions
of dollars qchich our Morgan banks and Steel
Trust combinations had St0ked on EmglG4lds
success, WOULD BE REDUCED TO WASTE PAPER
"The world must be made safe for democ-
racy," said our sweetly sincere President:
what he meant was, that the huge invest
ments, which our Blood-gorgcd Capitalists
had made in French, Italian, Russian, and
English paper, must be made safe.
Where M0rg0n'S money qcent, y0atr boys
blood must go, ELSE MORGAN WILL LOSE HIS
MONEY!
That's all there is to it, The man does not
live who can explain Wilson's sudden SOM
eIsault on any other theory, than that of Rus
sia's collapse on March 10Th. No other i'm
portant event occurred between Feb Goth,
and April End.
The Je1fersonan is the only paper that has
1rovD ottonfiOn Of tho cO11DtrU tn tho
true tale, told By the dates.
The Jeffersonian persistently did this, and
no Wilsonite can answer.
Hence the Wilsonites and the Romanists
unite to silence the paper which strenuously
opposes the Jesuit programme to make Amer
lea Catholic, and to make it a feeble repre-
ducton of Prussian militarism.
We are going before Judge Emory Speer
for an injunction forbidding the postmaster
at Thomson to refuse to receive the paper IN
the mails. We hope to get this judicial order
in time to mail out this weeks paper. IF we
should fall we will use the express office for
towns and cities, and use frst-class postage
for the rural routes
The issue is clear-cut, and it is time the
courts passed on it:
Can Congress gire the P. O. Department
greater p0acers than Congress possesses Uoder
tie Constitutions?
Can Congress empower the p. 0. Depart
ment to confscate valuable property and de-
stroy legitimate bubsiness?
Can Congress authorize the p. O. Depart
ment to deprive citizen of his property with
out due process of law!
Can Congress empower the P o. Depart
ment to abolish freedom of the press, and
license those papers, only, which voice the
views Of the Administration?
Can Congress thus, by indirection, destroy
the foundation of parliamentary government,
which DreslDDOseS the existence of Onnnsinn

These lawess spies of the Government had
no search warrant. and therefore violated one
Of the plaincst clauses in the Supreme Law,
and one of the oldest principles of liberty.
What did they care for law! What respect
did they have for liberty?
Like master like man: Woodrow Wilson
and his Iubber-stamp Congress do not pay
the slightest attention to the Supreme Law,
qrIich they 81oore 10 defend' and therefore
the same cynical disregard for law and for
natural rights pervades the rank and file Of
the service.
In Maryland, private soldier, forced into
service ''to crush German militalism and to
make the world safe for democracy" is muir
dcrcd in cold blood in the carrying out of the
verbal order OF brutal officer, who is thor

GERS generally are full of it.
IN California, a speaker addressing peace
able assemblage is arrested, while making his
address, the purpose being to shut Off the
speech and intimidate the crowd.
If the truth were known. it would appear
that this Administration now pays an army
Of secret service men to do nothing else ex-
cept threaten our people, bully them, COW
them, break their spirit, and compel them
to remain silent while Kaiser Wilson trans
forms the country into recruiting ground
for European armies.
In substance, Wilson's present policy -
adopted when Russia collapsed amounts to
IIessianism, on a colossal scale never before
attempted.
Already, we see the formation of the mill
tary camp, throughout the Union; and these
camps are to feed the depleted lines that are
