courts, deadly as bursting bombs, rem

"Give me liberty or give me death"
Let 1t be understood that the old land

WIN Not Be Enforced.

No law in favor of labor will ever be
enforced by a republican or democratic
official. Such laws are enacted, not
because the rulers want them, but to
placate the few laboring people who are
brave enough to demand them and the
rulers fear to lose the votes Of the
workers. They hate these laws and al
ways find excuses and decisions to make
them imperative. These laws are sop
thrown to catch gudgeons. Labor. laws
will be enforced when laborers cease
voting monopoly tickets and elect men
who want such laws,-Coming Nation.
