THE IRREpREgsIBLE CONTLICT

Ns"t HVuA ~ AuBullbi hhu IoIJIbou III tls
New York WOrid, the willy politician
gaped and posed twenty-aeyon times fol
instantaneous photographs, illustrating
In various attitudes how he proposed IA
capture the "hay.seeds' Of Kansas and
slay them Gas Sampson did the PhIlis-
tlnes) with the "aw bone OF an ass"
While II Is true that Ingalls, is a pecu-
liar, he is not an unknown quantity His
record is written, and in that record /
will ask all republican farmers, all demo
cratic farmers, any knight OF Labor, any
member Of the producing classes 10 point
10 one single statute enacted by congress
and become law Of the United States
that John j, Ingalls, promoted for the
benefit Of the toillng millions
Is II not true that John j. ingalls, is the
father Of the opigramatic head line,
"sENAToR INGALLS, INTRODUCED A BILL ny
REQUEST"
This artful dodge was invented by him
to escape the responsibility Of advancing
the enactment Of the law and 10 80 place
the bill that he could kill II (on the sly)
and not uncover "his fine Italian hand"
TO the anxious gaze Of his granger con-
stituonts."
The willy senator may be Jackal"-
probably he Is but he possesses all the
knowledge, which If used b the interest
Of tho people, would lead them to victory
against monopoly.
This statement can DO verified by re-
ferring TO the recent interview he gave
the New York WOrld, a democratic sheet,
in which no said
have no doubt Of the authority Of the govern
mont 10 assume either partial or complete con. |
troll Of all the great trunk lines OF transportation |
and regulate The burdens that are now Imposed |
upon tlio productive labor Of the country.
Right here lot us inquiries Where Is the
bill introduced in congress Of which In
gals Is the author that in any manner
looks TO the relief Of the productive la
Dor Of the country" from the extortlons
and ''the burdens that are now imposed |
upon II" by the incorporated lines Of
transportOtionp
We walt for an answer.
Again, we hear this sarcastic prince OF
vindictive sentences say:
Tho apnut on nvVvlutr hValnnpp ~ thn nn,tntvt Ia
under The absolute control Of a few persons, upon
whose odlCts depends the prosperity Oi the ma
ton. by their combination they are enabled 10
ilX Che price, control the supplies, create fictitious
demand or artificial scarcity, and thus disturb
the whole basis OF values In the commercial
world.
Further he said
with daring and admirable genius those mon
nrChs have devised and with lnCOnCelVable en-
ergy th0y have constructed system OF highways
the most wonderful known to man.
Read II over aud over and over. "The
monarchs" did It, for reasons to follow:
The Athntlc communities by their superior
thrift and vigilance, have secured advantages
which have enabled them hitherto tO dictate
terms 10 the producers Of the west,
Yes, yes. Thrift and vigilance" in
buying the men who made all class laws
that now Oppress the people Of the United
States, and through these laws "dictate
terms TO the producers OF the west"
Such "thrlft and vigilance" used to bo
called by another name,
Here we have IL sub-rOsa:
They have constructed thousands of miles Of
railroads and watered the stock OF countless mil.
lions OF dollars upOn which the diyldendsRre Maid
from eXhOrbitlnt rates, chat the farmers Of the
Mississippi valley are compelled To pay for ear
rylng food without which eastern commerce ,
would languish and the population starve.
The great senator would have the ebay
seed socialists believe such villainy to
be ''thrlft and vigilance" We think they
