In the interest of the people, the Of
ficers of the corporation went before
the city council and, by means best
known to themselves, induced the
council, against the protests of the
people, to change the contract, giving
them a long extension of time and
eliminating from the contract proVis-
ions in favor of the people and substi-
tuting a new contract prepared by the
water corporation, which was emf
nently satisfactory to them at the
time.
"For FIVE years the condition of this
new contract were in favor of the
water company, The people lived upto
them. Then came again a provision
in favor of the people, providing for a
reduction of rates, based upon GER
tain stated standard.
"The water company objected to any
reduction, Notwithstanding the proVis-
ions Of the contract. Finally it an
nounced that 1t had figured out from
the standard named in the contract, a
reduction of per cent. on a portion
of the rates, and, with a generosity
and msgnsnimity unparalleled, offered
to make the magnificent gift of 2 per
cent. to the people, making it 10 per
cent, but refused to make any reduc-
tion on rates for irrigation and sprink-
ling of lawns, in accordance with the
contract.
"From the same standard the people
figured they were entitled to a reduc.
tion of from 30 to go per cent, and an
average reduction of at least 40 to 45
per cent, including irrigation aud
sprinkling. Then it was that the Of
ficers and mouth. pieces of the water
company, to carry their point, an
nounced themselves as ignoramusses
and liars by stating, in substance, that
the wording of the contract and basis
for computing the rates in Denver
were so indefinite, unintelligible and
difficult of understanding that it was
impossible for anyone to tell exactly
what they did mean or to figure any
rate that would be anywhere near cor
rect.
"We next see them striving to annul
the provisions in the contract in favor
t of the people, and to obtain still
greater opportunity and power to rob
3 them, by the passage of new ordi
nance, so as to change the contract.
ALREADY four out of five supervisor
and eight out of fourteen aldermen

reserve to lie idlein the treasury vaults,
the perpetuation of the national
banks, increasing the public debt in
time of peace, while boarding millions
in silver bullion and coin which they
refuse to coin or pay out, the refund
ing of the war debt, making it payable
as far as possible in gold, thus increas-
ing the burden upon the people, while,
by a policy of contraction of the cur
rency and the demonitization of silver
with its attendant injury to or destruc-
tion of our foreign markets and carry
ing trade, they took away from the
people their ability to bear the burden
and turned them over to the tender
mercies of the money sharks Of this
country and Europe, who, taking ad.
vantage of their necessities and having
almost absolute control of the volume
Of money, were in position to dictate
terms and conditions, prices and values
of money, land, productions and labor.
From year to year the squeezing and
grinding of the people between the up.
per and neither mill.stOnes of selfish
greed and criminally wrong and unjust
legislation has gone on and on until to-
day the grist of bankrupt, financial
cripples, homeless families and hungry
psupers, trsmpS and people out of en-
plOyment fill the land. When the
people found out that silver had been
demOnetized and began to feel the
pressure of contraction, they de
manded its restoration to the coinage.
The money power, through it's willing
tools in congress, to prevent the passage
of a free coinage act at the former ratio
of is to 1, resorted to the same old
game of compromise. The people got
less than half a loaf in the Bland act
as the result. They had condOned the
fraud and crime of demonetization,
and acknowledged silver as cOmmod-
ity. The secretary of the treasury
coined only the minimum amount re-
quired by the act,
"The money power demanded that
the Bland act be repealed; the people
protested so vigorously that it had to
resort to another compromise TO trick
them and make them divide the por-
tiOn of loaf they had. The result
was the Sherman act, by which silver
was further degraded and its coinage
virtually stopped, The secretary Of the
treasury openly violated both the letter
and the spirit of the law, by neglecting
or refusing to purchase the amount of
bullion required by the act, or to coin
that purchased with which to redeem
the certificates issued in payment fol
the bullion.
"Lster, corporate wealth and capital
cracked their whip over their chain
gang in congress and the senate. The
Sherman law must be repealed. A
Vensl partisan press echoed and re-
echoed the cry. The republican and
democratic oVerseers laid on the party
lash. Silver was ANONYMOUSLY kicked
out of her rightful home and forced to
lead a life of shame and disgrace
among the bulls and bears, the Wolfs
and coyotes of Wall and Lombard
streets.
