 ~ OvERNOR COX may properly V 7 decline to answer the persist

But if he feels impelled to reply, he should deal with the subject with frankness and directness and leave no doubt in the public mind as to where he stands.
 There is no shadow <of reason why Debs should enjoy executive clemency. The argument that he is political prisoner" is the veriest rot. He is serving term for a deliberate viola ton of federal statute which was enacted for the protection of the re- public, and his contumacy in court was shocking and repulsive to every law abiding citizen. He defied the law and the court in a manner which under a less lenient and considerate govern ment would have brought him before firing squad.
