Review of the Glass in Political Skull
duggery:
Stand up, class in Political Skull
duggery. What is majority, Johnny
Jugglem?
A sack and boss, sir.
Keerect. What part of the whole
is 81 per cent. of 81 per cent?
The whole thing, sir.
Prove it.
Dead easy, sir. A law is tho "ex'
pressed will of the people" 1t is en-
acted by vote of 81 per cent. OF
bare quorum in Congress, and g bare
quorum is less than 81 per cent. So
sir, 81 per cent. of 81 per cent. Is the
whole thing.
Very good, Johnny, and very true
You will be author Of an apportion'
ment gerrymander bill yet.
Teddy Fuddlem, give further e1'
ample of political arithmetic.
Yes, sir. A majority party in power
is run by caucus vote, which is q
majority of itself. Therefore the bare
majority thrice removed is 100 per
cent.
No doubt of it. Very wei, iildeedi
Billy Limbolaw, express this political
equation still further, please, that the
beauties of Political skullduggery may
unfold before us.
With pleasure, sir. Members OF Con-
gress are sent from districts varying
from 1000 to $4,000 voters, and the
dominant party in power rarely has
thirty out of every hundred votes cast
to show to the credit of it's elected
candidates. A dominant clique in a
caucus rarely has over Is pei cant. OF
the popular vote back Of its individual
members. But they can and do enact
laws; hence Is per cent. is equal to 100
per cent.
Yes, yes, but our beautiful system
has more to show still. HoWtsiing Pa
triot, give us the next step.
It is this way, sir. Congressnien are
nominated by conventions, and fre-
ouently a candidate is nominated by q
bare scratch. The delegates TO these
conventions come from country con-
ventions; the members Of The latter
from primaries where, on Tho average,
those who vote do not exceed l5 per
cent. of the rank and file ofthe party.
So, sir, considering that at each OF
these steps within the party organiza-
ton past masters of our science are In
! control, it Is safe TO say that the
dominant element in party caucus Is
not the choice of per cent ff the vot-
ers and then one-han the tlAult popu-
lation is disfranchised and oHe-ffth OF
the voters won't vote. laI
Just so, young gentlemenI but the.
proof of this has not been shown BY
any. of you as yet. Dick Dit'y, let US
see IL you can prove the examples.
Yes, sir. The proof lies lii the fact
| tHaL lOF tue past lullA VI " oChauAy y
all legislation has been to Tile benefit
Of less than 5 per cent. of tlle.people.
Correct correct. Now the class re-

Lincoln Against Gage, Depew a Co.
The assumption by Gage, Depew, and
nearly every Republican orator, in
celebrating the birthday of Lincoln,
that Lincoln was a goldite and in fa-
vor Of the classes against the masses,
recalls to mind how different the teach
ing Of Lincoln from those of gold mon
opolists. For example, in his message
to Congress of December 3, 1861, in dis;-
cussing the labor question, he said:
mo men living are more worthy to
be trusted than Those who toll up from
poverty none less inclined to take or
touch aught which they have not hon
estly earned Let them beware OF sur
rendering a political power which they
already possess, and which, IL surren-
dered, viii surely be used to close the
door of advancement and burdens up-
on them, till all Of liberty shall be
