Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-05-02
I'VE Must Obey the Lair. !"

To this effect spoke M. E. Ingalls,, acting
Chief of the Big Four Railroad system. Mr..
Ingalls, was speaking to his brother railroad
men at meeting in Pittsburg. These things
are particularly significant:
l. Mr. Ingalls, admission that the Railroads
have not been obeying the law
2. That they must get at it, right away
g. That not single railroad man present
rose to remark that the railroads have been
spraining their loins trying to obey the law.
4. That Ingalls, admitted the right of the
public to control the management of the roads,
and the further issue of stocks and bonds.
s. That Ingalls, boldly declared that here
after the railroads must realize that they were
engaged in a public business for the benefit of
the public and that therefore the property
must be managed with reference to the rights
of the public.
g. That nobody present ventured to quote
from President Finley's Memphis address to
the effect that the capitalization of railroads
was none of the public's business.
T. That most of the metropolitan daiies are
singing rapturously, as though the Millen-
nium was at hand just because one railroad
President gives it as his opinion that eve
must submit to the Law"
If the people greet with such shouts of ap-
plause a railroad president who says that his
crowd ought to quit their wickedness and
live in obedience to the laws, what sort of
Roman Triumph would we give to the rail-
road President who would actually practice
what Ingalls, breaches?
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-05-02
HOAD Trusts Gould Be DESTROYED.

One CT the platforms of the Farmers Al
lance declared:
I'VE demand the removal of the Tariff tax
from the necessaries of life which the poor
must have to live"
This is precisely the principle announced
by Thomas Jefferson, who declares that the
taxes should be SO laid that the luxuries of
life would bear the burden of government, and
that his ideal was system in which the poor
would be entirely relieved from the crushing
weight of taxation.
Furthermore, the Alliance said that "legis-
lation should not be SO framed as to build up
one business at the expense of another"
II these principles were enacted into law
there could be no such thing as a Trust in the
United States
In order that the people should become the
victims of such tyranny as that exercised bv
the Trusts two things are necessary: For
eign relief must be made impossible. and do
mestic relief be made impracticable.
The Tariff wall keeps the FOREIGNER from
