AN OREGON VIEW.
Portland, Nov. 16, 1907.

Dear Sir: We are just now having
a beautiful example Of our best bank
ing system that the world has ever
seen, we have had in the West for
the past six or seven years, what
the plutocrats call great prosperity;
wages were high and all kinds Of
goods that the laborers must buy were
much higher, so the trusts got all
there was left after the people got to
the end of the month. But that was
not enough. The banks got all the
money there was in the country on de-
post, and as the demand for loans
was not enough at home to use it at
large interest, they sent it to New
York banks to be loaned on call, at
any rate obtainable. The trusts were
about ready to make a squeeze, so
they got the governor to declare
holiday. Now the question is, win
the people see through this scheme,
or will they be fooled again as ever?
1t is the old, old game over and over,
the laws are made to govern the poor,
and the rich govern the laws. IF
it be true that you cam fool a ma
jOrity of the people all the time it
is about time we began to see some
evidence of it.
We have made some Roadway in
Oregon, as we have the initiative and
referendum, and through it have got
good direct primary law, in which
we elect United States senators by
direct vote Of the people, and now
that the politicians see what it means,
they are conspiring to get the courts
to declare it unconstitutional, but we
are making ready to meet them by
initiating four more laws to be voted
on this coming election, which, think
will give them something else to think
about. [ will send you a copy Of
those laws soon.
Yours very sincerely,
FRANK r. WILLIAMS.
