ours is government of liberty, thru
and under the law. No man is above it,
and no man is below it.
1.-THE crime Of cunning, the crime Of
greed, the crime Of violence, are all equal
ly crimes, and against them all alike the
law must set its face. II
This Is not, and never slall:be, gov
ernmentso Of the plutocracy or the mob It

eminent OF the people, including alike the
people Of great wealth, OF moderate
wealth, the people who employ others, the
people who are employed; the wagework-
er, the lawyer the mechanic, the banker,
the farmer, including them all, protecting
each and every one, if he acts decently
and squarely, and discrim ina ting against
any one Of them-no matter from what
class he comes-if he does not act square
| ly and fairly-if he does not obey the law.
while people are foolish if they violate
| or rebel against the law-wicked as well
as foolish, but all foolish-yet the most
! foolish man in the republic is the man Of

administered with impartial justice for
or against him.
His folly is greater than the folly OF
| any other man who so complains, for he
lives and moves and has his being because
the law does In fact protect him and his
property.

American citizen to rally to the support

ALLIANCE OF

This Is the Story Being Used in

Erie Stock.
Special to Tho journal.

Special to The journal.
New York, May 2s.-vsome astonishing
stories are af1oat regarding the coming
alliance between the Erie and the North
ern Securities roads. The object Of these
is evidently to boom Erie stock, which IS
pretty low at present. Erie Is, OF course
the natural outlet for the Northern Sc
icurities roads. 1t is controlled by inter-
ests dominant in the securities company,
and there is no reason why, should It be-
come necessary, very close alliance
could not be perfected How far that al
lance would go is question. 1t Is ex-
ttremely improbable that definite plans
have been considered seriously yet and 1T
is impossible to believe that any one has
been taken into the confidence of those
interested.

termined attack on Canadian Pacific to-
day and hammered 1t down to 1241a. They
claim 1t is very vulnerable stock.
