Governor Lowden Of Illinois On The
Right OF A Minority To Raise Hell

CUCCESSFUL self government in
even the smallest political unit
is the only guaranty OF success
ful selfgoVernment in a great coun-
try such as ours There are many
evidences that this type OF govern
ment is breaking down in America
More and more frequently, the village,
the town. the city, finds that Il can
not maintain order without outside
help. This IS one Of the gravest
symptoms OF the times
whenever q town permits the due
and orderly processes Of government
TO be interrupted by a mob, that
town Is no longer an asset but be-
comes q liability Of the republic For,
multiply that town by a sufficient
number and you have a situation In
which only the army can rule. And
no selfgoT5Fning country was ever
yet ruled successfully by force Of
arms
The primary duty OF eery political
division no matter how small, Is 10
keep its own house in order.
Men are 200 prone, in these days
when disorder threatens, to call for
soldiers. Soldiers will always be
needed and must be used, II they are
the only means to maintain the law.
