!, TRAITORS IN THOSE DAYS.
rJS6efoon Bee.1

II D.. 7
Treason 10 no new thing. Traitors
are no new development. We have
always had them in America, a. prob
ably In other countries. We had them
during the civil war; and they were
bad ones. The things which have
happened to mon utterins reasonable
sentiments in Iowa and elsewhere dur
ing the past few months. are general
| ly mild as compared with the things
which happened to traitors in civil wal
| days,
As indicating how these matters were
handled in the others days we have
before US a book loaned to us by Judge
Church, dealing with early days in
Wisconsin. We dind there that in the
town OF Monroe Wis, they had some
trouble with traitors in 1892. and the
citizens met and formulated the fol-
lowing oath which every person s,is-
pected Of reasonable thought or speech
was required to take. Here Is the
oath
Il, - --. Of the town OF --
-, in the county Of Green and
state OF Wisconsin. do solemnly swear
that I am a loyal citizen Of the United
States OF America. and that will bear
true allegiancs to the same. that will
to the utmost Of my ability support
the government in It's efforts to sup
press the rebellion: that In rendering
such support will discountenance In
every possible manner by word or &C
ton every sentiment or expression the
tendency Of which may be to encour-
age disloyalty to tho government, and
that will not, by word or deed, coun-
tenance any disloyai. secret organize
ton: and for violation Of this oath
may suffer the Just penalty Of the
crime OF treason"
Any person who declined to take
this oath was promptly run out OF the
country. There were very few who
refused when 1t was put up to them
in that way.
Indicative OF how the military au-
thorities handled civilian traitors, 1t IL
OF interest to read the following order
which was put out by General Pope,
commanding the army OF Virginia, in
July. 1862:
Commanders Of army corps, divi-
sions. brigades. and detached COM
mands will proceed Immediately to ar
rest dsloyal male citizens within
their line or within their reach, and
within their respective stations. Such
as are willing to take the oath Of al
leglance TO the United States and viii
furnish sufficient security for its OBJ
servance shall be permitted TO remain
at their homes and pursue in good
faith their accustomed avocations.
Those who refuse shall be conducted
to the south beyond the extreme
pickets Of this army. and be notified
that IL found again anywhere within
our lines, or at any point in the rear.
they will be considered as spies. and
subjected to the extreme rlgor Of mill
tary law. II any person having taken
the oath OF allegiance as above specie
fed shall be found to have violated y.
ne shall be shot and his property
seized and conhscated.'
The rising generation will be inter
ested TO know, from the above sources,
that the fact We have traitors among
us does not indicate that our country
has degenerated. 1t simply indicates
that the same old germ Of disloyalty.

Grifs Hit Ball Hard

More than two to one was the ratio
by which the Griffmen outhit the vis-

Shaw, Hansen and Ayers yielded. yet
they were able to amass but three
runs. The total would have been
four, but Griff himself was respon-

won. Morgan's double to left and La
vans single to the same territory

the fourth inning. but although they
threatened in each succeeding frame it
was not until four rounds later that
they staged the rally that brought
home the bacon. Morgan drew a free
ticket as a starter and was forced
by Schultz, who advanced to second
on Lavan's one-base blow off Gearys
glove. Johnson. who was inserted at
this juncture. pounded single to left

The outstanding feature OF the Ma
tionals' 3-to-2 victory over the Mack
men yesterday was that the game was
played. With the base lines sodden
and the outf1eld series of young Ia
goons, the gardeners could have made
good use Of pilots to steer them
around In the meadow. Even the in
field was so marsh-like that balls hit
anywhere except on hetskinned sec
tion invariably produced splash.
Climatic conditions dampened the ar
dor of all but a few hundred fans, and
as though to rebuke Umpire Owens
for permitting the contest to get un-
der way, additional precipitation that
rapidly developed from the density of
a London fog to a Scotch mist and
finally resolved itself into steady
driZZle set in before the game was
five minutes old and continued almost
uninterruptedly throughout it's course.
So much moisture descended while the
battle was in progress that Arbitrator
Hildebrand, who had succeeded to the
dignity of chief. following
4 curtailed wading exhibition around
the diamond, announced that the sec
ond game was called off on account of
wet grounds.

Shotton Nearly Wins 1t

The Griffs had any number of
chances to win the game aside from
the one they seized. In the sixth with
Schultz on second and Picinich on
first as the result Of singles Shotton
almost turned the trick with a hard
drive that Dugan barely was able to
grab. 1t was the Introduction of Shot
ton as a hitter that erased Shaw from
the pastime. Hansen succeeded him,
pitched in a sterling manner for two
rounds and, incidentally was rewarded
by getting credit for the victory, Ain
smith. who batted for him in the
eighth, producing the hit that brought
in the deciding counter.
On five occasions the first Griffman
Jup got on the bases, Shanks twice.
Schultz and Morgan once each on hits,
and Morgan once through pass.
Only Morgan's efforts led to scoring,
however.

appearance In Mackian uniform. He
got two hits in four attempts and
