BILLY SAWYERS.

We have had OH hand for some
time The article published this
week from the pen Of Hon. VIM.
II. Sawycr:, Of Hinton. He has
written some excellent articles.
He has his hobbies. We confess
We do not know what he is trying
TO Sa: IN tins article. Only =: few
weeks ago he published III the
Indcpcnu, nt-Htr0id. of Hinton, :,
splendid article showing by actual
figures Of record wherein the Board
Of Public Works had not kept the
railroad taAcS up in proportion
with Other taxes. Now he advo-
Gates ali future railroads aid bust
ness employing over twenty-five
people so taN tree.
What kind of .AmcricaniSm would
this be? 1t would be communism
pure and simple. The very thing
dc is trying to condemn? 1t would
not only be unconstitutional but ii
would be un-Amcrican. He harks
back to the Nolstcad act which is
only another way of striking at a
legally adopted amendment to the
constitution Of the United States.
No matter what any ones individu-
al opinion may be, this all came
about by the will of the majority
Of the American people. One Of
the highest pinnacles in American
ism is rule of majoriticS. When
the majority of the American pco-
pie demand law, which they have
a right TO do, and that law is ell
acted, it is American to uphold
and enforce that law against all
Corners, no matter what be their
position in life. If the law works
a hardship let the majority change
it; but SO long is it is law uphold
and enforce it. Anything other
than this is not AmcricaniSm. 1t
Is communism of the worst and
most degraded kind. 1t is usually
class law enforcement. The thing
that is wrong with our country to-
day is the fact that We nave not
kept pace with the ideals of Wash
ington, with Jefferson, With Lin
coin, with Roosevelt, and with Will
son, in that laws are to be enforced
against all the people without fear
or favor. making no distinction in
class or station. When we push
forward with an eye single with
this end in view, and produce a
reverence for Our county and its
laws, then, and not until then, will
multiplicity of laws be done away
with. Class distinction produces
TadlcaliSin, just as it produces an
effort to remedy wrongs and injus-
ticcs by multiplicity of laws. Let
us come to the AmericaniSm where
III all mankind will have the law
enforced against them and where
III will be produced holy rcvcr-
cncc for country, for law and JUS
lice and then we can do away with
seventy-fivc per cent of our Off
GERS, both state and national, and
the remaining twenty-five per cent
VIII have but little to do.
True AmcricaniSm comprchcndS
that every individual is a law un
10 himself or herself in that they
are living and executing daily in
their lives the principles of The
Declaration of American Indcpcnd-
rncc and the six fundamentals
lald down in the Preamble of our
National Constitution.
Hallanan must have made our
good friend SawycrS mad.
