we have detective ceAmerciaf system that

the Golfers of dishonest, stock -jO5bing, specu-
la1lDg portion Of The community, TO the injury
OF the working man therefore, -

elares that all men are born free and equal, and

SUI Of happiness, and that happiness cannot be
obtalned short of the entire freedom Of each to
