REASONABLE BURGLARY.

Mr.. President: We, the burglars
OF the United States, beg to call your
attention to a grievance. For years
we have suffered injustice at the
hands OF the courts. There is a law
which, by its terms, prohibits EN-
cry COMBINATION FOR THE
COMMISSION OF BURGLARY. We
most respectfully ask that the rule
of reason be applied. We submit
that the law should be construed to
prohibit only UNREASONABLE
BURGLARY. To this end we ask
for the appointment, as justice of the
supreme court, of a criminal lawyer
with a record which viii assure us
that he will sympathize with our eff
forts to rob the public to a reason
able extent. We need not present
our arguments in favor of our BUSH
ness-it is a natural development of
our civilization. If we have not es-
tablished as many colleges and Ii
braries as the trust magnates, it is
because we have been hampered by
construction of the law urged upon
the court by magogues and disturb
ers of the peace who have appealed
to the passions of the mob and ar
1ayed the people against us Know
ing of your sense of fairness, and ap-
preciating what you have done for
the trusts, we cherish the hope that,
while we do not collect as much as
the trusts, you will put us on the
highway to the prosperity which they
now enjoy. Respectfully. etc.
TIE BURGLARS.
