HIGH COURT BULWARK
OF PROPERTY RIGHTS
Boston Lawyer Will Bring Peo-
pies Views to Nations 5 Great
Tribunal.

w OA~s n CIV. uC luOO
interesting thing about the storm OF
opposition to Louis D. Brandeis' ap.
pointment to the supreme court is the
way it has shown up that august body
as the guardian and protector of priv.
ilege and the established order.
President Wilson could have ap.
pointed Brandeis to any other position
in the government without throwing
Wall street into spasms. AS it is, we
court is the bulwark Of property.
Hands Off" say the sons of priv
ilege. The supreme court is our prop
erty. So long as you don't touch the
supreme court, shout all you please
about justice and industrial democ-
racy and equality of opportunity. We
don't mind if you even elect a gov
ernor or a legislature now and then.
With the supreme court on duty,
they can't do much. But if you put
a man like Brandeis on the supreme
court, what assurance have we that
our sons and daughters may not some
day have to work for a living?"
Brandeis Hits Hard.
Here are three very illuminating
quotations. The first two are from
the speeches and writings of Louis
D. Brandeis, and the third is from
the Wall street news of the New York
Times.
Said Brendeis on Jan. 13, 1912:
Under the guise of protecting
American labor, J. P. Morgan and
the management of the United
Steel Steel corporation not only
employ armies of poor, ignorant
foreigners, but, after grinding
their faces in manner not per-
nlitted in any other civilized
country, throw them at the age
of 40 years-old men-upon the
scrap heap.
On. .NnY. Il. z1013. ha said:
- Politically, every American is
4ree and independent; industrially,
4 large portion of Americans are
dependent upon the arbitrary
will of others. None Of our cou-
trasts is more marked than that
between our political liberty and
our industrial absolutism.
Now for the Wall street reporter o1
the New York Times, writing in the
Times on the morning after Brandeis
appointment:
When the tickers yesterday an
nounced his choice to succeed
Justice Lamar on the supreme
court the groan that arose sound
ed like the echo of great ma
tional disaster. Brokers on the
floor of the exchange professed
to believe that a ghastly joke had
been perpetuated by the ticker
Here is a fourth quotation, too good
to neglect. 1t is from the indignant
letter of one Alexander Sidney Lanier
In which he tries to express his out.
ragged feelings to the editor Of the New
York Times. Says Lanier:
''The supreme court has always
been justly regarded by our people as
the bulwark of their property rights
and the safeguard of their liberties
His appointment is 80 astonishing
that 1t seems like a horrid nightmare
and his confirmation by the senate
would, I verify believe, make every
responsible citizen feel insecure in his
personal liberty and personal rights
With the great unrest that is now
prevalent, this would seem, of all
others, the most inopportune time fol-
weakening the influence Of this august
tribunal"
And so forth and so on.

county hospital under the recent act
of the legislature.
Under an agreement with Dr. J. E.
Airport, thirty Button citizens have
signed a contract with him agreeing
to pay $40 each into a $500 fund
which is to be applied to defray pre-
liminary expenses that DR.. Airport
and his assistants may incur in the
work He will undertake to get 200
names on petition to be presented
to the board of county commissioners

ing a contract from the commission
