Let us rccollect that it was the wealth
Of the Barons Of England that enabled
them TO wiring Magma Charter from q
reluctant monarch, and after winning it
their wealth it was that gave them the
means to retain that immortal instru,
meht. And were ], fellow citizens, dis.
posed to venture upon q criticism Of our
policy IN tho past, i would say that wo
have relied too much upon mere logic
and rhetoric to establish our political
