s'HE'S WORLDS GREATEST
PROFESSIONAL THIEF :

the greatest thief the world has ever
produced" so declared Sidney C.
Tapp, author of the Struggle" in
lecture in Colorado Springs on Sat-
urday night.
Continuing Mr.. Tapp said:
"Charles l. of England and Louis
XVI, of GRANGE never plundered their
people of $500, 100000 as has Rookie
feller done to the people of Ameri-
ca" said the speaker. Continuing.
he said: THE honest product lon
of wealth is one thing. A system of
plunder by the destruction of the
laws of supply that his class have
carried on, is quite another thing
Such a system as practiced is moth
ing more or less than public plum
der.
81 consider that it would be one of
the crowning glories of our civiliza-

made to spend his days behind pris-
on bars. That would be just vindi-
cation of the law. and a living evi-
dence that our free institutions are
to live. and that self-government is
here to stay Such a vindication of
the law would declare to all the
world that under our system of popu-
lar government the law is sufficient
for all-that the law will be vindi-
Gated against the big criminal as well
as against the little criminal.
