THE REAL TRAITORS.

Representative Martin Madden of Chicago without question is entitled to the ignoble prize for assinity, says the Commercial-App When he denounced the south as being a traitor to the Union he showed he was possessed of a. virulent hatred mingled with a narrowness of true values that is appalling. The truth isl tha our southern fathers, holding theconscientious view that the union of states was voluntary one, would have been traitors had they not of fered to sacrifice their lives for their belief. The correctness or incorrect ness of their judgment can have nothing to do with the purity or the morality of their purpose.
 It is fact that the doctrine of states rights is not today precisely and fully determined. The war taught the south that the needs of continued and independent existence and progress demanded an unbreak- able Union. Since then no section of the country has been more loyal to the idea of an undivided nation and more unselfish in support of it. We have none of the preachers of government overthrow and one of the evangelists of anarchy in our section.
 Now that the Union has been con- sccrated in the blood of thousands of the best sons the real traitors are those who would teach or inspire discord and animosities along polit- ical, religious, racial or sectional lines. There is no mistaking the fact that Representative Madden is engaged in such nefarious work Whatever discord the south caused in the smooth flow af the Union was in defense of conscientious belief Representative Madden is trying to stir up disunion for no other reason than the love of dis union.

A POSSIBLE THEME.

MT. Gompers and Governor Allen are going to have debate on May 28.
 The debate is the direct result of Governor Aliens activity in behalf of the Kansas Industrial Court law The Industrial Court law is their main point of difference. However, they differ on number of other subjects and Governor Allen defi- nitely has agreed to argue about any and all of them with the labor lead CT.
 Inasmuch as Governor Allen has broadened the field of combat, it might be we'll to suggest to the labor leader that he ask the governor how he permits lynchers to go unpun- ished in his own state and refuses to permit the extradition of crimi. nals guilty of worse offenses when they escape from other states and seek asylum in his own. Governor Allen might be able to better Mr.. Gompers in a debate confined to his pet industrial theories. He would do we'll, however, not to permit the argument to take in other matters.
