And now look at the letter writ
ten to me by Arthur BurTage Far
we'll. At the top l see a quotation
from George F. Hoar, as follows:
obedience to Law is Liberty"
l find also the following quotation
from Hooker: "The law-her seat is
the bosom of God, her voice the har-
mony of the universe, all things in
earth and Heaven unite to do her
homage-the weak as feeling her
protecting care and the strong as not
exempt from her power" -..
/ will subscribe to that if it means
the law of God, but not if it means
the laws made by men. For l have
seen how those laws have been made.
l have not often seen them protect
ing the weak. have seen them made
by the influence of the strong for the
exploitation of the weak by the
strong.
know about the laws that Arthur
BUrrage Farwell loves to enforce.
They are the laws that give police
men the choice of protecting or per-
scouting the kind of woman Jesus
pitied, sympathized with and told to
go her way and sin no. more-the
kind of woman Jesus himself refused
to condemn.
For three years now have watch
ed in Chicago the play of law-en-
forcement-of fake philanthrophy-
of cold-blooded, card-index, organ
lied charity-of man-hunts and wo-
man-hunts by grandstanding officers
of the law-of preaching without per-
formance- persecution of the poor
who have fallen, with no sane at
tempt to save them from faIling-of
fuss and feathers about effects and
no attempt to cure causes -of futile
attempts to make the poor love laws
that are used to oppress them and
rarely to help them-of the swearing

men to help rich publishers fight

laws regulating individuals, laws the
people themselves don't believe in and
don't want to obey-of police brutal
ity-of the third degree-of filing
jails with people arrested for trivial
offenses of arresting people without
booking-of countless acts of cruel
inhumanity- all in the name of
the Law.
Suppose the Chicago Law and Or
der League does do some good All of
us do SOME good. But repeat that
the efforts of the two organizations
l have referred to-and l will now
add the United Charities and allied
philanthropies- lacking in real
human sympathy and smack too
much of scientific, cold-blooded, cal
culating regulation of individual NOR
ais. l can't see any real uplift of hui
manity in any of their reformative

AMUNDSEN NEEDS 100000
Washington Scientists Believe
This Is Impossible Amount.

Washington. April 13.-Private reports
from Christiania were received here to-
night that Captain Road Amundsen, the
Norwegian explorer. must have 10000
before he can equip his proposed polar
expedition. Explorers and scientists here
expressed the belief that II would be
practically impossible to raise the re-
quired sum.
The reports from Christania said that
Amundsen's ship, the Fran, after COM
pleting repairs at Montevideo, Uruguay,
would sail for Norway. the plan being for
her TO leave there and pass through the
Panama Canal TO the Pacific coast early
in 1915. provided that $4,000 can be
raised before that time. The National
Geographic Society here recently decided
to appropriate 10000 for the Amundsen
expedition.
According to announced plans, the ex-
petition is scheduled to leave the Pacific
coast next year TO explore the polar
basin. The vast tract between Northern
Canada, Alaska and Asia. including the
North Pole, Is contemplated to be
traversed by the explorer, and It is ex-
pected that the voyage would require at
least four years work in the polar ice
