"History. indeed, may with perfect
truth be said to be little else than a
record of the efforts of the few to
tax the many, and the many to es-
cape taxation" (Carey TX. 2)
OF the former, the DEVILS children
have made science which they call
political economy. OF the latter,
Gods children have made a science
too, and which is called social
science. The DEVILS churches and

The history of this country, like all
history, is the record of the fight be-
tween political economy and social
science; i. G., in present parlance, be-
tween capital and labor. Capital,

efforts Of the many to escape being
taxed by the few,-are at the bottom
of every political movement, and of

walton that "the people be damned"
And the misguided people will be
damned as long as they leave spark
of political economy in any of their
political platforms; i. e., as long as
"or better system" may be either
silently understood, as in all the pre-
ceding, i. e., in all the capitalists or
political economists, platforms,
namely those of the Democrats, Re-
publicans, Prohibitionists, etc.; or

God Almighty could not do any more
than fashioning square circle:
namely to promote harmony of inter

efforts of the few to tax the many,
and at the same time the efforts of
the many to escape. Escape what?
