Senator Ingalls, at Winfield: eve are
the greatest, the richest and most power
full nation on earth, but one-half of the ag
gregate wealth of the nation is owned and
controlled by less than 200, 900 men. The
father of our country" was the richest

pudiate the calamitous cry of the Apostles
of Despair, who live upon the credulity of
their sufferers. We cannot surrender the
fundamental principle upon which this
government was founded and 90 back TO
back TO the old principle that the govern
ment should OWE everything, and do
everything. Individual industry and
genius should and will be recognized and
no government can thrive that is not based
upon these principles"
