wasted upon them. What they need

Editor Anti Nonopolist;
Allow me if You please. to call the
attention of my fellow citizens TO q
few ideas regarding the life and death
of two great political parties, each
controlling the government in turn,
until both parties have brought the
nation to the verge of bankruptcy and
rebellion Both parties stand equally
guilty before God; guilty before the
American people; the leaders of both
parties deceived the people; enacted
unwholesome laws; every enactment
of law made to make the rich man
richer and the poor man poorer until
now two millions of men are out of
EMPLOYMENT. In the United States
the condition of the working classes is
hopeless. The working classes are and
ought to be the bone and sinew of the
nation; but when the wicked rule the
righteous mourn.
Both these old parties ought to
be stri eped of their power; the honest
American people will not follow them
