thoughts politically shall be wholly
and exclusively American. They have
no legal or moral right here other

posed to the treaty of peace dividing
cur people along racial lines, appeal
ing to their prejudices and passions
and making them think in thoughts
of foreign lands and not In thoughts
of the great ideals under which
America was conceived and its insti-
tutions organized so that the Repub-
lie has become the glory of mankind.
This is sowing dragons teeth
and the men responsible for IL will
have a terrible answer to make to
the God of mankind, whose very
guidance and assistance were in
voked and given to the fathers of
the Republic. Horribly bad as has
been this, vet in their pernicious
efforts to win they have resorted to
the most shocking blasphemy yer
committed in the political history of
the country.

masterpiece of the Immaculate Con-

his being resent the act of this man
