AVHs '6N ''D-( well recognized, if not universal maxlms as to the inalienable rights of American citizens:
 First. Every citizen has the in- alienabie right to work or not to work; 10 work for whomsoever he pleases, and at whatsoever price or on whatsoever terms he pIeases, pro- vided his employer agrees 10 his terms.
 Second. Every citizen has the in alienable right to employ or refuse 10 employ whomsoever he pleases. and to employ them at whatsoever price or on whatsoever terms he pleases, provided his employees agree to his terms.
 Third. No man has the right 10 say to another; You shall work" or You shall not work" or that You shall work for this man. but not for that one;" or that You shall work at this price, but not at that price," or that You shall work upon these conditions. but shall not work upon those conditions"
 That ancient maxim-"So use your own as not to lnture another's prop erty"-should apply to the right to labor as well aS thsat of property. the mero fruits of labor. The stat utes of this state in so far as they can be made to do so ought to ex- pressly declare, preserve and guar antee the above well as the other inalienabie right of citizens of this site.
 Such conditions as existed in the coal mining districts Of this state, under the ieadership Of irresponsible foreign agitators, if not the result or product Of socialism, certainly tend 10 encourage or promote SOCIAL ism, which often results in anarcny. Socialism IS the sower of the seeus. and anarchy Is the reaper of treason against the government. A conspi- racy to inJure the public, or .ne practice ol acts and the teachings oI doctrines with the intent or purpose, or the natural or proDable result ol which is to inJure the public, was q crime at common law, ana ought to be DO ueciareu by statue, witn ap- pfopriAle penalties. A conspiracy to starve or freeze the public, or even an agreement to do acts, the natu- raj and probable result of which IS to cause great suffering or incon- venicnce to the public, is little less than treason against the govern ment. when the government Is like ours-notning but the puoiic or the | people. | kOtRTEENTH--D AND KEEPING OF COUNTi FUNDS 1 recommend to you Tor your con- | alteration a bill to furtner provide TOT the depositing and safekeeping ] Of all iunus anu moneys of the Coun- | ties in this s,ate; to the end that the counties snail receive interest on l such funds instead of individuais or l pr1vate institutions. The county | f,f nf largest lin the. state unaer existing laws are 1 so deposited as to deprive the coun- l ties ana taxpayers thereof of aii in- | terest which could and ought to &C., crue on account of the deposits Of | such county funds.
 1 Tho Legislation which I propose on 1 this subject does not repeal or take the place of the existing statutes as 1 to county depositaries. nor does it abolish the office of county treas urer In counties having population of more than 50.Uo0. The act pro- /! posed is intended to supplement, complement and harmonize the ex- | isting laws upon the subject. It does l not abolish or terminate any con- | tract or agreement now existing for the custody or control of county | funds In those counties In which the l office of county treasurer has been
 
 ever, does apply to those counties after the termination of the exist l ing contracts as to the custody and control of tho funds. and hereafter makes the county depositaries other custodians =, county funds lia- Die and amenabie to all actions. 1 suits or proceeding to which county | treasurers are now liable. It's effect in this respect Is to make all county depositaries or custodians of county I funds liable to the same proceed ings and actions whicn are appli- cable to county treasurers, whether
 it be an ordinary action or suit, a summary proceeding. or extraordi-
 nary proceeding. such as mandanus g. quo warranto. etc In counties which
 have no county treasurers and de-
 positaries take their places, the de-
 positaries should be liable to all ac- tions or proceedings to which county
 which have county treasurers the
 counties should have the benefit ol
 the interest on county deposits jus
 as do counties which have no count,
 treasurers.
