p.rm,ss,on to talk 70 you for the pur-


pose of showing you how any mem
Der of a great stock exchange may at
any time do what | have done to-
day. Weigh well what | am about to
say to you. During the last quarter
of a century there has grown up in
this free and fair land of ours sys-
tenn by which the few take from the
many the results of their labors. The
men who take have no more license,
from God or man, to take than have
those from whom they fitch. They
are not endowed by God with SUI
perlor wisdom, nor have they per
formed for their fellOwmen any labor
or given to them anything Of value
that entities them to what they take.
Their only license to plumber is their
knowledge of the system Of trickery
and fraud that they themselves have
created. No man can gainsay this,
for on every side is the evidence.
Men come into Wall street at sunrise
without dollars; before that same sun
sets they depart with millions. So

stocks we bought and sold were mere
gambling chips; that the man who
had the biggest stack could beat his
opponent off the board; that his OPP
ponent was the world, because all
men directly or indirectly played the
stock gambling game. To win it was
but necessary to have unlimited
chips. If chips were bought and sold,
on equal terms, by all, no one could
buy more than he could pay for, and
the game, although still gambling
one, would be fair. A few master
tricksters, dollar magicians, long ago
seeing this condition, invented the

able rules. to attempt to change or
break which would destroy stock
gambling. The foundation rule, the
ruIo absolutely necessary for the ex-
istence of gambling is: Any
member of the stock exchange can
buy, or sell, between the opening and
closing of the exchange as many
shares of stock as he cares to. With
this rule in force his buying and sell
ing cannot be restricted to the amount
he can take and pay for, or deliver
and receive pay for, because there IS
not money enough in the world to pay
for what under this same rule can he
bought and sold in a single session.
This Is because there have been ar
bitrarily created by these few trick
sters many times more stocks than
there is money in existence. The
amount OF stock that any man can
sell in one session Of the exchange is
limited only by the amount that he
can offer for sale, and he can offer
any amount his tongue can utter;
and he is not compelled and cannot
be compelled to show his ability to
