Answer:

Correct answer is to protect against threats from antiwar activists

Step-by-step explanation:

Lincoln did this so he could prevent those who are supporting South from affecting other people in the country. He did this by putting those people in jail. It happened in 1863.

All other options are not true, as it wasn't suspended because of secession of new states or freedom of speech.
