As to the profits OF lthis representative instltn

namely, that he drew oul Of the company divi-

lent Of s. 900 per day for 200 days and this was but
one member Of the firm with no statement Of undi

put the annual profits OF this company at less than

them to employ 1900 wageworkeB"
No man can read this without feeling
OF indignation and shame that the power

TO perpctuatc a robber tariff by which
trusts and monopoliesarc able to combine,
shut out competition, put up the prices OF

yillainy Of system that thus enables
millionaire monopolists to put their
hands into the pockets Of the people by
act OF Congress, bleed them Of their hard
earnings, and build up a system OF pau
pcrizcd labor as abject and degrading us
anything the slums Of Europe can pro-
duce. No ADLER expose OF the iniamy OF

late his strength and press him upon
