To all students of our govern
ments history the truth is palpa-
bly, evident that very few New
England States have controlled all
national legislation in the interests
of privileged few and to the de-
.triment of the great masses, especi-
ally to those of the South and West.
The time is not far distant when
party lines will, to great extent,
be obliterated by the voters of these
two great sections of our country,
whose interests are one and the
same, and then just and equitable
laws will be enacted which will
benefit the many instead of the few.
The fight is on and while the vic
tory may not be won in one single
battle, yet it is bound to come and
and at no very distant day, either.
