The King Cometh

II q tremendously greedy man. one who had
ten times more than he could possibly enjoy In
this life and still wanted ten times more, should
BUY ONE-HALF OF THE REAL ESTATE Of
this country, we would become greatly alarmed.
We would know that some forty millions of us
would have to become tenants and most of us
know what 1t is to be under the heel of land
lordism.
If very ambitious man should obtain power
over AN ARMY OF SAY $4,000 ABLE-BODIED
men in this country, and seek to acquire still
more power we would be very much alarmed as
to WHAT HE MIGHT TRY TO DO TO OUR RE-
PUBLIC.
ing these advantages referred to, should MAKE
US PAY for these things which he got, we would
be seriously enraged and feel grossly outraged,
as well as scared We would ask ourselves,
"What next? We would begin to fear that this
monarch would be after rights of free speech,
free religion, physical freedom and participation
liam the Norman, when the filters of the soil
were sold with the soil and the common man Of
England was actually rated at one-twelfth the
value Of one of the privileged class.
Such acquisition of power and such prospects
Of subserviency by the people would arouse u.s.
We would say that we would kill and die before
We would go under such slavery.
A man named Hartman has Just secured
control of the NJ Y. G. & H. r. R. Co. This gives
him a railroad system extending from the Allan
tic to the Pacific. He already had one extending
from the Great Lakes to the Gulf Of Mexico.
What does this concentration of wealth,
power and control mean?
He can BRING ON A NATIONAL FINAN-
CIAL PANIC whenever things don't go to suit
him.
He can dictate to many Of our courts and
lawmakers throughout the land, for his own and
allied corporations have tremendous political in
fluence.
He can say what price the products of the
tiIer of the soil shall bring in the domestic mar
ket and practically dictate prices on all that we
export or import, which latter means ANOTHER
CTNCH ON THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF
THE NATION.
He can make us pay for what he pays for
all this power, by raising rates, cheapening the
cost of service cutting the wages of his tens OF
of operatives. This is the way in which
is paid for.
