It seems impossible that here in supposedly free America, men, women and children must be slaughtered, mothers with babes in their arms must be ridden down and maimed by a man like Adjutant General Chase, a pliant lickspittle of the operators, that the motherhood of the nation must submit to robbery, abuse and fiendish outrages, that men and women must forego their right of trial by jury and other injustices that they may force the capitalist owned state and county executives to enforce the laws and re-establish constitutional government.
