When the country is at war
pla are bound up in the success of
the nation in that war, it may seem
strange that such drastic legislation is
necessary as that which has been pro-
posed and so strongly advocated in
both houses of congress. Looking back
through the vista of years it is easy
to explain why "copperheads" existed
in the northern states during the Civil
war. Those men not only had preju
dices against VAR, but they believed
there is no question of the rights of
states, and further, there is no ques-
ton as to the great disaster defeat for
the American arms would be to the
nation, it is certainly amazing that the
government is obliged to 90 farther
than it ever did before in order to put
down treason and sedition.
But this fact stands out boldly /:
Whatever legislation is necessary to
maintain the government in the pros
ecstion of the war will be enacted even
If it goes TO the extent of clothing the
president with still greater power than
he now has. The people throughout
the country who are guilty of foment-
ing treason and sedition are RESPONSE
BILE for the drastic legislation which
has been enacted and which will be
enacted in the future

There are a lot of "whipping boys"
connected with the administration.
Readers of history know that as soon
as parliamentary bodies or ministries
became responsible to some extent for
carrying on the affairs of govern
ment, and even before, when the mon
arch was primarily responsible for
everything, the opponents never at
tackled the head of the administration
directly but severely castigated the
kings advisers"
Rarely do the opponents of the adj
mnistration say much in criticism di-
rectly of the president, but they do
take 1t out" on one or more of the
whipping boys" A few years ago it
was Josephus Daniels of the navy de-
partment who was the prime whip
ping boy of the Wilson administra-
ton. Since the war began Secretary
Baker has been the principal whip
ping boy" and at various intervals
