Langdon, Nov. 18th, 1895.
The herald., 1895-03-29

The good people of California know
something of railroad domination" said
Mr. Debs. IF only half the reports |
hear are only half true in regard to the
Southern Pacific the people ought to take
possession of that railroad before it takes
complete possession of them. | prefer
Government ownership OF railroads to
railroad ownership Of the Governments,
The speaker declared that the railroads
maintained great corruption funls at
Washington and in ali the state capitals to
debauch Congress and the Legislatures.
Not only that, but they debauch the
courts of this country" said he. "In Chi
cago the other day | sat before Judge
Trumbull, author of the Fifteenth Amend
ment and one OF the greatest jurists of the
country. He made allusion to our appeal
and said: - It's no use. Mr.. Debs. it's
no use. The courts OF the count are
in the grasp OF the money power.
Debs spoke in bitter denunciaton of
Judge Jenkins. IF justice were done he
would be wearing stripes and breaking
rocks" Said he: Il made that state
ment in the presence of 1000 people in
Milwaukee, his home city. His proceed
ings were SO notorious that Congress
made an appropriation of $500 to investi
gate. When the source of corruption was
reached the money to investigate was ex-
hausted and so nothing was done. Judge
jenkins is Judicial highwayman: If
that is contempt OF court, he is enJltled
to make the most of it.
Judge Jenkins arbitrarily refused to
allow railroad men to quit work. but he
did not make an order prohibiting the
corporations from discharging its en-
ployees, and his comment on this was,
1T is poor rule that like a locomotive,
doesn't work both ways"
The Southern Pacific was denounced.
rs. P, he declared. stood for slave
power" The Santa Fe came in for an
attack. Its recent president Reinhart,
was accused of stealing millions from the
road. and the result was that he was up
to his neck in social clover in Boston.
Judge Caldwell was pronounced an
honest man. One of the speakers start
ling declarations was this: 1.-The work
ingmen are beginning to think They
will now begin to act They will not sup
plicate for their rights but they will take
them by the power OF the intelligent
ballot -
The herald., 1895-03-29

The speaker plunged into the subject of
the great strike of 1894 which he char
scterized as the greatest Individual up
heaval OF modern times. He regarded
strike in the nature of calamity. but
now and then it came to a choice be-
tween strike and degradation and
slavery, land when that time comes IA
vor the strike - said the speaker.
Every inch of progress has been born
of agitation and strike. Our very Gov
ernment owes its origin to strike Every
star and every stripe of our flag was born
ington and at Concord. If it were not
that the revolutionary fathers struck for
their rights we would be British subjects
tonight instead of American citizens.
Americans must be as dead as mbalmed
Egyptian mummies if their hearts do not
glow at the acts of these immortal pa
trots. The revolutionary patriots alb
scepters. They formulated the doctrine
that all men were created equal, and they
crowned themselves sovereign citizens and
accepted the ballot as the divine right.
Debs declared that the Pullman strike
was born of tyranny and the oppressive
Pullman company. He read from book
written by a minister of Pullman to show
the condition of the employees in that
town. Checks were drawn every two
weeks. After paying rent and store ac-
counts Pullman employees had from 81
to $6 left to live upon for the next two
weeks. The checks were made out not
slngly. but in two forms, one of which
was for the cancellation of debt and the
other for what remained after the debt
was paid. One man had check for
cents as the amount coming to him. He
never cashed the check but preferred TO
keep it as a souvenir of Pulman's phil
anthrophy.
