FREE SPEECH HAS
 ITS LIMITATIONS
Cannot Be Used to Injury of Country in War, Says
 Henry Rector.

J
 Regarding the decision of Fed eral Judge Emory Speer in re- fusing to enjoin the postmaster at Thompson, Ga, who had de- nied mail privileges to Tom Wat sons publication, The Jefferso- nian, on the grouud that the pur- pose of the paper was to obstruct the recruiting or enlisting of men in the United States army. w. Henry Rector, assistant United States district attorney, said to the Gazette last night:
 The decision of Judge Speer of the federal court for the East ern district of Georgia is espec- tally gratifying, as a judicial con- struction of section 3 of the es- pionage act. That section makes 1t an offense to obstruct or inn pede recruiting or enlistment in the military or naval forces of the nation.
 Judge Speer. in effect, seems to hold that the use or publica- tion of such language as charac- terized the columns of the Jeff. ersonian Is an offense against government and a violation of the espionage act.
 While it is true that the con- stitution guarantees freedom of speech. that does not mean that an individual can make use of language calculated and intend ed to embarass the government in the prosecution of a great war against mighty foreign power, and then claim a constitutional exemption from liability for his unpatriotic act. Individual right must ever be held subservient to to national right, and where an unbridled tongue or seditious pen may cause any other to violate the law of the land or deny to his country the aid and succor which all good citizens give, there is no shield in the consti- tuition behind which such a man may hide.
 The constitution offers no protection to him who would do his country harmon who, sin times of great peril. would un- dertake so to abuse it's sacred guaranties as to do or say those things which are only short of treason itself. The nation smust come tirst-its rights are para mount to all.
 But aside from the legality of secret incendiary and seditious remarks Judge Speer's opinion sounds an even deeper note. The unpatrlotic act with it's probable consequences must give us pause. Assuming the individual right to criticize and bemean those charg- ed with the responsibilities of government. how nobler would be the sacrifice of that right for the benefit of l00,000.000 other Americans! This nation is build ed upon an altar of sacrifices. From the very beginning of gov ernment down to this day many good men and women have sac- rificed their dearest and most sacred right-yea, their very lives that America might live. And even now thousands of our young men-the flower of this generation soon will pour out their blood upon the fields of France-a sacrifice to the down. trodden and oppressed of every land.
 The noble thing to do-the American thing to do is to help the government and not to hin- der 1t, even at the sacrifice of in- dividual riches, rights and blood.
 Truly this is no time for crit icism, but only for co operation with those instrumentalities de.

THREE FULL CASES OF
SEIZED LIQUOR STOLEN
FROM CHIEF kEEGAN

Lewiston. Me-, Oct. s1.-Following the
big haul made by Chief Keegan and
his squad on Monday. various interest
ing developments have come to light
Lot the least Of which was the larceny
of three full cases Of whiskey from me
chiefs ONCE on Tuesday evening, the
thieves making a perfectly clean get
away with the goods.
According to the way the chief
sizes things up. the cases were passed
cut of the unlocked window of his
office. as footprints were found on the
leather sofa under it.
To state that the chief is peeved
would be an extremely mild way Of
denoting the real condition of his
mind. for far from being a joke. it ap-
pears that according to the letter Of
the law. he will have to pay for the
missing liquor unless (which is very
unlikely. it is recovered before the
time Of libel, az days.. is up.
Which doesn't appeal to Chief kee-
gan's sense of the humorous, not even
