JUSTICE TO ALL.

Thus, when We see the functions of gov
eminent used to enrich favored few at the
expense of the many, and see also it's inevi
table result in the pinchng privation of the
poor and the profuse extravaganza of the
rich, and when we see in operation an ua-
just tariff which bauishes from many hum,
BILE homes the comforts of life in order that
in the palaces of wealth luxury may more
abound, we turn to our creed and find that
it enjoins equal and exact justice to all
men," Then, if we are well-grcunded in
our political faith, we will not be deceived,
nor will we permit others to be deceived,
by any plausible pretext or smooth
sophistry excusing the situation. For our
answer to them all we will point to tie
words which condemn such inequality and
injustice as We prepare for the encounter
with wrong, armed with the weapons of the
democracy.

light on some of the ways in which it
Is SO easy and SO common for bank

how examinations do not examine.
