New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1906-09-12

A power has arisen in our
midst, in open defiance Of an ex-
press prohibition of the Consti-
tuition, that is secretly undermine
ing the foundation of our nation
al liberty, and is exercising the
most deadly influence upon the
otherwise permanent prosperity
Of the country. It is the most
audacious and unscrupulous
power, the most gigantic and
the most formidable, which has
ever combined it's varied and
overwhelming energies against
universal liberty and the we'll
being Of society. Dangerous as
are all vast aggregations of cap
ital; pernicious as is the unre-
stricted power OF money, having
nothing beyond its own natur-
al and unassisted influences, yet
even this is comparatively harm
less when contrasted with its
hollow counterfeit it's worthless
representative PRIvILEGEDF FRAUD
which creeps into public conf
dence under the convenient dis
guise of Credit, and assumes the
name, functions, and character
Of Money!
All power given to a corpora
ton, must, Of course, be wrested
from the people,; the existence
therefore Of corporations, confer
ring erczusiue privileges, is sub
uersiue of equal rights, and is
wholly incompatible with the
principles of universal justice.
By what authority is it then,
that these odious m onopolies are
granted under our free Constitu-
ton? By What right do our laW
makers take the public credit and
parcezH out to shdrpers and game
sters? By what right do they
confer privileges upon certain

Then and Now.

We find that the further we get
back toward the literature Of
those days which tried men s
souls; those days when the peo-
pie dared to stand up and face a
cannon's mouth for the sake of
principle; those days of Sam
Adams, Ben Franklin, Tom Paine,
Patrick Henry and George Wash
ington, the more genuine demo-
cracy we find.
It is with pleasure and profit,
therefore, that we frequently
delve among the old-time docu-
ments which the people Of this
degenerate, time-serving, bond
holding, Mammon worshiping
day and generation are permit
ting to remain unnoticed and un-
read, stored away in old garrets.
Here, for instance, is something
that we should like to have the
so-called Democracy" Of the
present day read and digest. It
is taken from an "address' de-
livered by Theophilus Fiske to
the young Democracy at a
great Democratic meeting in
Philadelphia asfar back.as 1848.
Read every word of the follow
ing paragraph, and read it loud!
Read as though every line of it
were set in the biggest kind of
type!
If we would avoid the pom
derous evils which in the old
world are crushing grooming
multitudes into hopeless misery
and degradation, we must avoid
the causes which produce such
deplorable effects. If we adopt
a similar policy, if we pursue the
Z. same, disastrous consequences
must necessarily follow; they
may operate slowly, gradually,
and almost imperceptibly, but
not the less certainly and efectu-
ally. Even now the petty social
distinctions in society which are
SO abhorrent to every well bal
anced mind, are becoming as
strongly marked here, in this So
called free country, as they are
under the monarchica1 govern
nents of Europe. We are almost
as efectually divided into cliques,
castles and classes, as they are in
those countries where there isno
mockery and pretence about re-

publican equality. We do not

respect man so much for what
he Is, as for what he does. We
pay more regard to his calling
and profession, than to his vir-
tue or his intelligence. It is be-
coming every day more and more
disreputable, among the imita-
tors of European aristocracy, for
any one to engage in any useful
employment, or in any branch Of
productive industry; it is consid-
cred far more respectable, among
a certain class, to live an idler, a
drone, or a public nuisance, than
to earn our bread by honest toll.
We seem to forget the important
fact that he who labors neither
with the hand or the head, is a
pauper or a robber.'
Read the last sentence again;
not only read it but have it prin-
ted in letters of gold; frame it
and hang it up in the most con-
spicuous place in. your home:
HE wh0 z060rs neither Nth the
hand or the head is a pGuper OF a
r06bery
You could no more get such a
sentiment into modern politi-
cal platform than you could keep
ice in the hottest corner Of the re-
gions Internal.
And what would the young
Democracy" of 1848 have
thought to have stood on the
corners of the fashionable thor
oughfares Of our great cities to-
day and see the elegant carrla-
ges and automobiles with coats
of arms upon the doors, with
drivers and footmen in livery, as
they drive to and fro filled with
our modern "aristocracy?'
Theme comes another paragraph
against the monopoly of money
that would almost serve as a
Peoples Party platform. We
copy it entire without comment,
as no language of ours can make
it any more forcible than it is:
"The present disguise of the
untiring enemies of freedom is
MISUNDERSTANDING, far
reaching, overshad owing, over
whelming monopoly, sheltering
itself in the midst Of it's stupen-
dous corruption and startling
enormity, behind the intrench-
ment of public good and vested
rights. Gifted with unconstitu-
tionalprivileges, possessing pow
ers of duration and accumula-
ton which less individuals are
not permitted to enioy-placed
beyond the salutary operation of
/! the general laws of the land
bound together by the bonds of
mutual and inseparable inter
; est, monopoly is gradually be-

industry and the most frightful
prevalence of crime. Let us con
tinue to foster our system of pa
per banking and other anti-re-
publican combinations to live
withoutlabor, to grow rich with
out industry, and we shall realize
the appalling condition Of the
Inhabitants of the old world.
Here will be a lordly palace, and
there a hundred novels, blotting
the fair landscape Of Gods crea-
ton"
What, would thoss expounders
of Democracy Of 1913 have
thought Of the position of affairs
in this country today?
Whatwould they have thought
had they been told that before
the close of the nineteenth centu-
~ one hundred and fifty men, as
rich as the two richest men in
New York, could buy up euerydo-
lars north of real and personal
property In the whole United
! StdteSI
It would have made their blood
run cold to have been told that
in 1906 less than three thousand
persons would be worth half as
much as the entire wealth of the
country In 1913!
They would have stood appal-
led could they have foreseen the
army Of cramps" the bankrupt
cies and suicides; the overflow
ing jails and poorhouses; the
poorly paid workingmen and the
starving women and children,
which we see in our midst today!
Could they have foreseen the
'lordly palaces and the desti-
tute ''hovels" which sixty years
would produce, God alone knows
what bitter words they might
have uttered or what extreme
measures they might have recon-
mended!
The next question touched
upon is equalization of property.
The time is coming when man
will no longer be regarded with
abject and cringing subserviency,
simply because he possesses mil
lions more than he wants, or can
use, while millions are pining in
poverty, hunger, and nakedness.
The time WiH come WheR those
Wh0 build houses shall 0Wn homes.
When those WAo create all the
wealth, shall 0Wn at least q Dor
ton of the weazth they produce.
When M0se Wh0 w0rk shdWeat,.
The nations wealth depends
upon those Wh0 toll.
H0W then does it happen that

the wretched, the destitute. con-

.4Hording to tie W0rzd the
strange anomaly of tie p0DertyOf
the creators of riches!
All honor to those who labor
all gratitude and respect to the
men who toll, whether at the
loom, the kissing engine, or on
the heaving" wave; whether in
battling with the angry elements,
or breaking the stubborn sward,
whether welding the hammer,
the axe, the shuttle or the spade,
all that blesses man on sea or
shore, we owe to the men who
toll.
Heaven never made the rich
alone to smile, while the whole
earth is ringing with laughter
never made a scanty few to feast
inidleness, while the toiling many
are weeping in their rags and
Indebtedness, want and woe,
wearing out their lives in a long
death dream of hopeless misery;
the God-like soul blasted with
penury and ignorance, fever fiji
ling heart and brain with horror
from the cradle to the grave.
This is land of liberty; but
what is political liberty without
social liberty, equality and fra
ternity?
Talk about blessings of liberty
to the pauper mass who sell
themselves day by day for a pal
try sum just sufficient to keep
them from the grave.
Liberty means something high
er than freedom to toll and
starve.
Selfshness everywhere - from
the teacher to the taught-is the
creed of our times.
It's fostering vernon has filled
the world with blood and crime.
No Drawer words were ever ut
tered; no sublimer truths were
ever proclaimed, than the above.
Yet SO degraded has become our
press, SO degenerate havebecome
our preachers, SO mercernary
have become our public speakers
and instructors, that not one in
a thousand can be found today
who would stand up and public
ly sanction these heaven-inspired
utterances.

THE LIBRARY RESEARCHER
Men Employed by Cranks to Deive
Into Musty Tones for Iu-
formation.

Says the New York Times: In the
reading rooms of the New York public
Libraries one may see almost any day
mysterious, often seedy-looking per-
sons surrounded by musty tones, maxi
ing copious notes. These individuals
are frequently the subject of remark.
Who employs them, and where are
their notes published? The explana-
ton is that most of these mysterious
persons are experts in research, and at
least two of them are able TO scrape
together 81, soc a year. but they are the
very princes of their profession. They
are not seedy. Both are highly edu-
Gated, cultured men past middle age,
and we're at one time wealthy.
There is a vast multitude of cranks
in our country, and as most of them
are people of means, they are often OF
use TO the needier members of society.
Many library researchers receive
good slice of their yearly income from
these Cranks. Thus some unknown
gentleman has conceived the idea that
Gibbons Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire is crawling with errors,
and ne has been employing for some
time three library researchers at sal
AIRY of $40 week each TO make a sys-
tema-ic examination of every state
ment of fact in that mighty work and
collate all the evidence obtainable on
each work! Another gentleman has
peculiar idea about the head of Paul
Jones and, contemplating a treatise on
the subject, is paying researcher
good salary to ranssck every book In
the New York public Libraries likely TO
yield a grain of information.
