When YOU take into consideration that
government is organized for the people
and intended to protect them in their
lie. liberty and property, We can easily
understand why law is an absolute es-
sonIial. and that without stringent laws
that are enforced promptly, vigorously
ana justly-making all who violate law
an,enable to law-then there cannot be
the safety and protection sought and
demanded. 1t becomes necessary to
bring all dishonesty under the power OF
law if dishonesty is to be cured and pun
ished. It is necessary TO protect peo-
pIa in their lives. To do this you must
not only have laws to punish robbery,
arson. rape and murder and all the baser
crimes. but YOU must have laws to pro-
tect people from abuses that make them
sick and perhaps kill them. You must
protect all people from adulterated
drinks. medicines, food, etc. II people
without principle or care will undermine
the health of the people and cause even
death to many, there should be most
stringent law to prevent all authorizations
of drinks and food. In fact aduteration
should simply be outlawed, and those who
violate should be strongly and promptly
punished. You will hear people-selfish
pcopIe-who will cry out against having
q law to crush out food authorizations or
TO interfere with the canning liquor traf-
fic in any way. But health, life, pros
pority and peace are all involved. A law
against adulteration is paraced and OPP
posed as against traffic, as against the
freedom and rights of the people. So are
In hot Of t0
stealing, house-burning, raping, killing
interfering with the scoundrels in their
right to plumber and destroy and crafty
their hellish lusts 1t is all clap-trap. and
a senseless deception. No manufacturer
of ANYTHING has any more right before
God to commit crime in accursed adul-
iteration and deception, and thus rob. in
jrrc and destroy his wtims. shan a
rogue has right TO steal the chickens
OF a poor woman, or to perpetrate his
vandalism and devilishness in apy OF the
multiplied ways. To stop wrong, to
end an outrage, to prevent crime against
humanity, can not with any sense or
truthfulness be said to be drastic in,
novation" because it puts the brakes
upon manufacturers and dealers, espe-
cially of the corrupt, unconsciOnsable
devil class, and stops them in their game
Of robbery and villainy. 1t is pretty
ccme off when it is deemed an actual out
rage to protect the homes, the women,
children and men against rascals who
plumber and kill under the form OF un-
restrained license and right to adulterate
the very bread of life and poison the
drinks that are used by the blbluous OF
in the homes in the form of teas. coffees,
etc. Why quarantine laws, and pest
houses and hospitals for victims of dis
eases that are communicated to others, ii
it DE wrong to say that you shall not
poison the food and drinks of the people.
There are, newspapers now attacking the
