A CONTEST FOR THE PUBLIC WELFARE

These are times in which parry

that different schools of thought ar"
being created with the two great
political parties, leaders are being ar
rayed against leaders and interCine
strife and contention prevail. 1t is an
alignment in which predatory privi-
lege is waning with the interests of
the people Decisions of courts, OF
quasi judicial tribunals, rulings of com
mission, acts of congress and the va
rious state legislatures are having an
anomalous result. The people are dis
contented, business is s,agnant, re-
suits are in doubt, people are du.
biCus. There are constantly arising
new conditions, and remedies must
be created to meet these changing
conditions.
