KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT NOW.
A much-needed law governing sedi
tion and kindred evils has been passed
by congress and is probably now ef’
fective. The passage of this law will
effectually put a curb on the activi
ties of those among us who are dis
loyal, and who hitherto have openly
naunted their disloyalty, if the fed
eral officials do what they are paid
for doing. There has been altogether
too much open disloyalty in the Unit
ed States, and the sedition law comes
in response to a demand on the part
of the American people for more
drastic measures.
If we understood the terms of the
sedition law as passed, alien enemies
must hereafter be mighty careful
what they say or do. Loose talk of a
disloyal nature will no longer be toler
ated. There is now a way to reach
tho.*C guilty of so doing, and the pen
alty thaJ may be invoked is severe
enough to a sobering effect on
Hun sympathize*'.? who may not be
able to restrain themselves in the
matter of speech or actions.
Some people do not seem to appre
ciate the fact that che United States
is at war with a powerful enemy. We
are sending the best and bravest of
our young manhood to the front, to
• face sh©t and shell. Even now, large
numbers of American troops are on
ttt£ firing line. We loyal Americans
pt home do not propose to permit
pernicious activities of alien enemies
at home. We propose to back up our
boys at the front.
The thing for alien enemies who
may reside among us to do, is to
keep their mouths shut good and
tight, failing in which they should be
prosecuted without fear or favor.
