He gives names and goes iuto details, and is
liable for libel if his charges are false, and as

the failure of the men attacked to prosecute

of them alone. All except Mitchell, of Ore.

1t is said that all but seven United States
senator's are against railroad legislation. All
of the legislatures OF the great Northwest are
for II, and so are nine-tenths of the people.
Nearly all the states that are for railroad legis-
atou have railroad attorneys for senators. So
it is PLATA that the Presidents measure Is
blocked. The people elected Roosevelt, and
railroads elect United States senator's, with ex-
ceptional CASES. Patt, Of New York, is sem
Ator for the express companies. Depew is for
the railroads. Nothing mean about corpora
tions when it comes to representatives, unless
Missouri be an exception. The railroads want.
ed Kereps, and thought they had him, but
there was hitch in the pass scheme which
gave Nedringhaus chance to come in for the
brewers, so now, there is regular dog-and-cat
time, with the chances that the railroads will
win In the senatorial contest in Missouri, the
people have no more than the people of Kan
sas had when her Legislature elected Burton.
Ii is about time fo. the people to surrender
representative government, for the reason that
we haven't sense enough to place representative
men in office If even we voted direct for
United States senators, it is question if the
papers did not lie us into voting for the dregs
Of the corporation sums.
