the attempt to fix it at the present rate
for fifty years shows that the great com.
pany in Chicago has the same notion
with regard to the rights of the people
that Vanderbilt expressed, when ip an
swer to the question, what about the
rights Of the people?" he replied "the
people be id"
The Springfield Republican spoke
truth as true as holy writ when it said
''if our government ever breaks down,
concentrated and INSCRIPTIONS capital
will be responsible" The danger to
our Republic lies not in the poor and
humble. They respect the law, they ask
no special privileges, they suffer long
under injustice. The trouble in Chicago,
brought about by the demand of 'con-
centrated and INSCRIPTIONS capital for
the pound of flesh nearest the heart.
is not unlike similar feeling which like
aggressions have produced in many
States and cities. In Chicago, the smoul-
dering fire has burst forth into flame.
In other cities where "unscrupulous cap
ital' has bribed aldermen TO give the
right to tax the people, the tension is
great, but the point of defiance has not
been reached. Fortunate at this hour
for Chicago is it that it mas mayor
who stands firm against the deal that
has made Chicago a city of Indignation
meetings. The demonstration against
the boodlers and ''unscrupulous capita"
is not only led by the mayor and most
other public officials, but also by the.
press of the city, representing all politi-
cal parties. Every paper except the one
owned by Yerkes, the street car mag
nate, is fighting without let-up against
the threatened fifty year steal.

"Thc explanation of this suggestion TO
act in silence is found in his letter 10

"Whatever the Democratic party
promised the people, that thing let the

said Chairman Simmons in his speech at

read it every morning before he goes to
the capitol.
There is special appropriateness in
