And man who takes advantage of peor man's nccesviiv .,r ,ii th,. man's necessity to extract from bun an excessive price for that neces sity is at heart a thief. Whatever law there is that can reach him should be put into operation. There is a just profit that belongs to every man for his labor, bis tal ent, his brain; but there has never existed and there will never exist a condition which entitles any man to excessive profits, to usiirv, or extortionate demands for service or for goods. The profiteer has existed too long molested and has escaped the judg meats of law. But now the people arc growing weary, restless, and re venge tuL , The time has come for the gov ernment to arrest every man who takes advantage of an emergency to practise extortion. Thi-; is certainly true of the hour iu which we are now living. The government talked about seising the coal mines. The gov ernment ought to seize not only the mines, but everything else that the profiteer is trying to use for purpose 01 extorting from the pie an unjust and profit Hie profiteer should not be al lowed to do business. l et the government sav to all profiteers: "Every time vou raise the pries unjustly, the government will t ike from vou the right and the license to do business.''
