ment, will work for modification of

"class legislation. discriminating in
favor of the RICH" ard has brought
about disrespect for all laws"
The society has a list Of officers

DR.. Empringham said considerable
pressure has been exerted in an eff
fort to prevent publication of the
result of the QUESTIONABLE lest 1t

Of Government under the Constitution

Senate"
The Spirit of the Laws" written
by Montesquieu in 174S, which Sen

1.-THE political liberty of the subject

it is requisite the Government be so
constituted as one man need not be
afraid Of another.
when the legislative and executive
powers are united in the same person,
or in the same body of magistrates,
there can be no liberty: because ap-
prehension may arise, lest the same
monarch or Senate should enact tyran-
meal laws, to execute them in a tyran.
nical manner.
Again there is no liberty If the
judiciary power be not separated from
the legislative and executive. Were 1t
