IN THOSE DAYS AROSE KINGS.

Imagine yourself back two years
and a half before Wild Week, back
at the time when the kings of finance
had just completed their apparently
final conquest of the industries of the
country when they we're seating
themselves upon thrones eacircled by
vast armies Of capital and brains,
when all the governments of the ma
tion-national, state and city-were
PROSTATE under their iron heels.
You may remember that was not

their financial agents, was the best
known, the most trusted by them, the
most believed in by the people.

the building that dominates Wall and
Broad streets. Boston claimed me
also, and Chicago; and in Philadel-
phia, New Orleans, st. Louis, San
Francisco, in the towns and rural dis
tricts tributary to the cities, thou
sands spoke Of Blackjack as their
trusted adviser in matters of finance.
My enemios-and l had them, numer-

me man worth while-my enemies
spoke Of me as the biggest bucket

Gambler l was-like all the other
manipulators of the markets. But
"bucket-shop' l never kept. AS the
kings of finance were the representa-
tives of the great merchants, manu-
facturers and investors, so was | the
representative of the masses, of those
who wished their small savings prop

fellows was founded upon wealth and
the brains wealth buys or DULLES or
seduces into its sorvice; my power
was founded upon the hearts and
homes of the people, upon faith in my
frank honesty.
How had l built up my power? BY
recognizing the possibilities of pub
ucity, the chance which the broad
cast sowing of newspapers and maya
zines put within the reach of the in
dividual man to impress himself upon
the whole country, upon the whole
civilized world. The kings of finance
relied upon the assiduity and dexter
ity of sundry paid agents, operating
through the stealthy, clumsy, old
fashioned channels for the exercise of
power. relied only upon myself: l
lad to trust to no fallible, perhaps
traitorous, understrappers; through
the megaphone of the press l spoke
directly to the people.

thrived all these years in the glare
and blare of publicity?

Certain Chinese who led the bow
colt on American goods in Canton
last year, and were punished by i'm

day. A crowd of enthusiastic Chi

leaders of the anti-Chinese agitation
used to be treated in the sand-lot days
of San Francisco.
