CITIZENS' ALLIANCE.

CITIZENS ALLIANCE. Alliance men, do come and tell me
 Something l don't understands, l 1ou say you are for law and order,
 Why do you do 1t undernand! Why not come out ill the open
 Snow your colors, Whate'er they be; Are you truly for law and order,
 Ot are you unions enemy Ii you are sincere and honest
 Why not add to 1t fair play! And take hand i'll suppressing crime; It will help things right away. Then go out upon the outskirts,
 Especially on the Sabbath day, And put stop to whiskey selling;
 Do 1t now without delay. Let each one get out and hustle Around Brown street and out East
 Main,
 And try and earn the reward that's of-
 cred
 For the assault on Maggie Crane. If you are for law and order, Help, our policemen every day; Don't bring charges up against them When you can't prove what you say. Close those dives down on Bank street, Put a stop to the policy game, Then rush in and jail the landlords
 Who rent their places for i'll fame. ], What have you done since first you
 started
 Please come tell me what have you
 done Have you tried to find the rascals
 Who shot down Paul Mendelssohn7 No, you have not, and we'll I know it; You have got your axe to grind; You're not out for law and order,
 Though you say so for a blind. Why not end this bitter feeling
 That you caused through poor old
 Ben,-
 Poor old man, Pm sorry for him,
 so are all the policemen. Let the trolley company do their fight
 ing,
 You keep quiet, it's not your game If you do so can tell you
 Weul restore our city's name. Now, Alliance men, let me tell you
 Your order is failure in this town; You have copperheads in that order, So take them away back and sit You're not organized for law and order; z Have you spotters under pay am thinking now you'll wind up
 Just the same as poor Benja.
