is powerless to do any good. Do you
think that the people are honest, colo

LAS honest as money-mad people can

of nothing else. we have eyes for Moth
ing else, we dream of nothing else.
The man who talks of justice or prln-
ciples is thought a fool. We are APP
preaching the climax in as strange a

Grafton. Massed wealth rules, and N
all the worlds history we find that
massed wealth has ever maintained its
ascendancy by means of corruption,
This is bound to be more true in re-
public than in any other form of gov
eminent. Privilege recognizes in every
new representative from the people a
foe who must be conciliated or con-
verified, or marked for defeat at the
next election
But corporations and private inter-
ests often ask for perfectly fair enact
ments, which are for the best inter
ests of all concerned" suggested Judge
Sawyer. And then again legislatures
frequently introduce and threaten 20
pass laws which are admittedly unfair
to corporate interests"
Very true, and in both instances the
corporations must settle with the leg
islators," remarked Col. Monroe. The
first bill is called a hold up and the
second one 'sand-bag, and both form
ammunition for the professional thief
The tutor of bribery should not com
plain of the proficiency of his pupils.
But is it not strange, Judge Sawyer,
that millions of American citizens dis
cuss this awful state of affairs, as we
have tonight, as if it were a mere In
cident, instead of a disease which
threatens not only our national life but
civilization itself?
Judge Sawyer was silent and after q
pause Col. Monroe continued:
would you like to examine the ros-
ter of all those American citizens who
in the past twelve months have beer
guilty of bride giving or taking, or OF
tax lodging and perjury; or of Other
crimes against the community commit
ted for the purpose of gaining a GER
tain number of miserable dollars?"
No, 1 would not" declared Judge
| Sawyer, with an involuntary shudder
1T might destroy all my belief in .

| The self-respecting man does not roll
his social club; why should his con.
science be clear when he despoils tina

Jenkins, drawing himself up with vIr.
tuous pride.
