In one of his speeches in Mimi.
sofa on Monday, Mr.. Bryan ex.
pressed large truth within small
space when he said "Not one
man IN ten is really benefited bv
the Republican policy, but that one
is expecting to make the campaign
contributions and then get his mon
ey out OF the other nine"
The campaign contributions of
the protected corporations are the
most profitable of their investments
They are the price paid for the
special privileges, secured to them
by party legislation, by means of
which their capital is amassed
The price they pay is small for the
benefits secured, and they get il
back many fold from the public.
The distinctive policy of the Re.
publican party has been to a large
extent determined by these cam.
paign contributions. This fact was
shown in the history of the Nc.
kinley tariff, which imposed duties
tor the protection of monopolies
that had paid for it in advance.
The system has been continuously
developed. The trusts that have
grown up under the tariff, secured
AGAINST foreign competition, require
security against competition at
home, or against legislation that
would make competition possible
IND they know that their campaign
contributions will be remembered
o their credit. They would not be
merely ungrateful but blind to their
'wn interests If they did not con.
ribute literally.
The proportion is less than one
II ten, but let that pass. The pol
cy OF the party and the admins ..
ration has been shaped to the ben. !
mt OF the few, who pay the party :
expenses and get their money back
nth profit out of The many, who y.
re expected to vote as they are :!
'ld and be thankful tor the priv.
'ge of contributing to the rich y
lan's prosperity.
When any one raises his voice Il
5alnst this false policy he is ac-
sed of warning, against the "
'clal order. 1t is not the natural d d
der, social, political or economic Il
Is system artihcially created a
lat cannot be maintained with u
fety, but that needs to be and can r
safely corrected when the nine . .
ell insist that their advantage y y
all be considered before that of P
e tenth. {.
