3CCTesSed letter TO the editor of The Crisis

winch he INDUCES in some observations OF The
polticai SITUATION. Mr.. Blair contends that the
pfesent condition o. the country is due TO the
TACT that the government has been perverted
from It's legitimate object of protecting The
peop'e and made the instrument Of pluadering
r'eht IN specifying IS enc of the modes lin
Whlch tue dominant party has perverted power

lies by which so great a portion of the card
meS OF TABOR have been devoured, and espe-
claly the national banking system, which is
Justly obnoxious" Mr.. blair SAYS the
most significant result of the working mems
movement is that lit has brought tire
democratic organization to its old-time
attitude Of open and determined antago-
nlsm to TIE money power, with which zoo
secret alliance" and concludes: AT this
moment, therefore, the democratic and work
lngnen'S organizations substantially agree IN
opposing subsidies OF money or land in re-
ducIng expenditures, in exposing and defect
Ing fraud. In substituting greenbachs Tor
HauOLal bank notes. ana GENERALLY in reliey-
Ing labor from taxation. The democratic
organization does not accept some other idg -
OF tfe nationals, but its thorough acceptance
OF the anti monopoly creed places it in entire
accord with the nationals in opposing the
money power which now holds the govern

continuance i'll power no prosperity whatever
can be expected, and whose overthrow is
