handled through their elevators and
over their docks. Personally they
owned the elevators and docks and
they were only officers of the roads. so
they put down the rates on the roads
that they might make big profits on
their private elevators and docks. That
was what the matter with the rates
was.

During all the fall and winter months
the republican leaders and plutocratic
press have been constantly declaring
that we must not have government
ownership of railroads OF 1t would
bring the railroads into politics. Dur
ing that time, the roads have elected
not less than ten United States sena-
tors and sent them to Washington
where they appeared on the fourth or
March and took the oath of Office with
Chauncey Depew at the head OF them.
The railroads run the government now,
and. if they ran it under government
ownership, they couldn't possibly run
lit any worse.
The railroads have sent word to the
interstate commission that they Will
not obey its order to make the rate on
live stock and live stock products the
same, and they will continue to charge
much higher rates for live stock than
for the meat shipped out by the pack
ers. The case will be taken to the
courts and eight or ten years from now,
those who are alive in the second dec
sde of the twentieth century will know
how the supreme court decided the
matter. That is the way of fixing rail-
road rates under private ownership
works in these United States.

Garfield thinks that the cattle raiser
of the west are the most ungrateful
creatures that ever lived. That son of
his father declares that "tbe cattle rails
er gets his animals killed and delivered
to the consumer at not much more than
81 a head over and above the actual
operating expenses, and therefore he
has little reason to complain" In.
stead of complaining, the cattle raiser
should teach his children TO remember
| the beef trust in their prayers every
night, for its unexampled kindness in
killing and disposing of his steers fol

Dennis Donohoe, the great financial
editor, started out to prove that Law
IONS stories about the system were
all lies. The following is sample OF
the way he tried to do it: "Dr. Ham
ilton has made scientific study OF Mr..
Lawson's case, and has written an ex-
haustive report upon 1T, In the course
of which he reaches the conclusion that
the patient is suffering from ambitious
paranoia.' DR.. Hamilton's citations
from medical authorities include such
well-known textbooks as those OF Spitz-
ka. Kraft Ebbing, and ]. M. Remission,
while the catalogue OF symptoms upon
which ne bases his conclusion Is r.ade
up exclusively Of extracts from 'Fren-
zied Finance" Now does that not
prove beyond reasonable doubt that
there is no such thing as Standard Oil,
Amalgamated Copper, Addicks and
Mark Hannas six million campaign
fund to buy a bunch Of states? Den
mis-, you have made an ass of yourself.

Boston seems to have arrived at the
Investigating" stage again. A COM
mittee from the legislature and one
from the gas commission are both in
vestigating the gas trust. Boston has
been Investigating" ever since the
time that the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary. AS soon as one set
Of Investigators die Of old age, another
set is appointed. Boston is determined
to find out something if it takes ten
centuries to do it, and after it finds out,
it will introduce bill into either the
city council or legislature. Then after
that they will investigate some more.
Kansas went after the scalp OF the
Standard Oil trust first and will do the
Investigating" afterward. Rockefeller
thinks that is unscriptural and alto
eether wicked. He will never give the
Kansas university any $4,000.

Are the trusts bigger than congress?
The supreme court tells us that they
are. 1t says that congress can not en-
force an income tax, because that
would be unconstitutional. But the
trusts lay an income tax upon the
whole nation. They take out CT the
income of every person just as mucr
as they see fit to take, by increasing
the cost of things that people must
have to live. The trusts are satisfied
with taxing the income OF Americans
They levy no tax on the income of for
eigners. as they sell foreigners their
goods at half what they force Ameri.
cans to pay. But they denounce the
American if he objects to that and cal
him a copperhead. The trusts thinl
that it is patriotic to tax the income
of Americans and treason to tax the In
come of foreigners.
