[Mr. Taft et al. Might Say: | Muckrakers and neurotics, give heed to the Allen gang of Virginia! For a long time it had gone on unchecked in its march of progress. Then began the era of demagogery, screeching for punishment; a weak commonwealth yielded Did t commonwealth.stop to think how much it owed to this organization? Instead of hundreds of lone bandits rm community the evils of destructive competition, an orderly system had evolved, quietly taking the profits necessary to give employment to its many employes at excellent wages. [t was operated under expert management that had determined that it was better to let the ultimate victim live, so that he might ac- @umulate something for another hold-up, than o slay him or let him be subject to the swoops of a myriad separate high waymen, Occasionally life might be lost, but this was a re grettable accident, and no part of the plan of the benevolent system itself “But no, the commonwealth did NOT stop to think. It had one member of the band in custody and howled for his life. His fellows naturally sought to rescue him from the hysteria of the district attorney and the mob, at which time the court room was turned into a gencral morgue. And now all the Allen gang are “criminals.” ‘© such organization is safe. None can tell what they may be permitted and what forbidden to do. There is uncertainty everywhere, investment halts, and the throat cutting industry is virtually paralyzed We must have some constructive legislation! Congress could easily charter these bandits and define their powers, if necessary, to the point of determining rates. Thinking men realize that we cannot revert to the chaos of individual rob beries, and that the mere bigness of a gang is not a crime A well conducted monopoly of this sort is the solution of the problem, and would promote efficiency, economy and cheapen the toll paid by the victims. The time has passed when we should hark back to Mosaic or common law to tell when a thief is a thief, a robber a‘ rob ber or a crime criminal in its character, He who would have us do that is a foe to our national prosperity and greatness. All Against Wilson That an offensive and defensive alliance has been entered into between Harmon, Underwood and Clark is now a mortal certainty. The alliance is working itself out in a division of territory. Clark takes the West, Harmon the and ( derwood the South. They are to give or cording each man can muster strength—and the to beat Woodrow Wilson, Working out this general plan, Harmon and Clark have just withdrawn from Florida, leaving the field to Underwood _ sien has pulled out of Wisconsin, leaving only a Clark ticket there. In Nebraska the Clark ce: aign has been turned over to Arthur Mullin, who a little while ago was manager for} Harmon. In Georgia the Harmon workers have turned in for} Underwood. And so it goes. The “safe and saners” are united. They are the “allies” against Wilson. {r. R.
