AS party of rabbit hunters were
coming home Wednesday evening the
hind wheels of their wagon dropped
into a sunken gas pipe ditch opposite
Mrs. ChOllette's, breaking the coup

the wagon down with lurch that
threw the boys into the mud in great

hurt, and the damage done was not

victory remains to be seen. But that
the inevitable conflict is at hand and
that it's results will be lasting and will
leave it's mark in constitutional changes
is beyond question.
1t should not be lost sight OF that IN
this struggle for the possession OF the
governing power there is no faint Of an
agrarian spirit. There is no apprecia-
bic element of the American people
who are opposed to property rights. It
is not opposition to property but
to it's combination in vast masses
for political purposes, that it may
control legislation and the machinery
of government in the interest Of the
combination and against the property
rights of other. It was Senator Nc
Duhe who said that legislation could
be the most powerful and ~exacting OF
%plunderers There is no hatred Of cor
porations as such. They are essential
in the service of civilized life, nay in
d~ispensable. Nor even against Railroad
corporations so far as they keep within
the legitimate duties of their creation,
but it is when they seek to use their
enormous power Of wealth and organi-
cation for the undue emolument Of
their owners and by entering the poilti-
cal arena seek to control legislation
and public policy that the collision be
comes inevitable. The opposition is
not to them as servants Of the public,
but as would be masters of the people,
That we have already passed the dan
ger line as to the aggregation OF wealth
will be seen from this summary from
reliable sources: Egypt, Persia and
other great Empires fell when less than
10 per cent of the people had secured
nine tenths Of the accumulated wealth
of those empires The glories of i'm.
perial Rome crumbled into dust before
the brawny arms of the half naked bar
barians Of the northern forests when
1900 families had garnered the mass of
it's wealth. Already to day, n half
of per cent of the people of this
country own over one half Of its entire
wealth and nine per cent of it's people
seventy five per cent of its property.
This condition tends rapidly to aggra
vate itself. Today in Europe, 40 per
cent of the house holders are tenants.
In this grand young Republic already
70 per cent of the householders nearly
double the European ratio, do not own
but rent their homes. This condition
of things has not accidentally hap
pened. It has been brought about by
the great corporations and combina
tons of capital. Already many warn
ing voices have been raised. I will
mention only two-and they are lead
ers in the two most conservative pro-
fessions in the world. In an address
