oppressive and unjust and even abb

robbery and injustice It's financial
system is believed ~ the best inform
ed men in that matter to be the Very
worst among all modern nations. But
l do not go into this at length. If
the people shall continue to be so I'M
wise and needless of consequences,
and shall continue the mad, iniduitous
course of money-spending to such
shameful results, taxing the people
so enormously and ~eXrending the
earnings of the people with such mon
strous prodigality and wastefulness,
there is 10 telling where and when
it shall end. Look at the huge. fear
ful expenditures of the last Congress

vagance and waste. and then predict
ii you dare. the end. If the people
shall continue SO ignorant and sub

widen such bold. usurping evils, then

%iniquities must follow. The death
knell of civil liberty and prosperity
must follow. and it will startle the
world, but too late. Will the
American people remain Quiescent and
submissive to all of wrongs
and expressions? Shall liberty perish
at last in the house of it's friends?
Shall the p~ertenacity and zeal of
Republican domination and rule con
tinue its work of demolition and de-
cay? Shall tyranny and rascality
continue its grip upon the throa,s OF
the American Icople without fear and
unresisted? Shall the demagogues
continue their reign of terror and
peculation? Shall tyranny continue
to boldly, i~mpudently. savagely, unre-
sistingly tramDle under its foot the
Constitution of the American people?
There Is still hope of a change. Let
us hope for the best. 1t is high time
that the people We're acting in behalf
of their own best interests. Let rascals
and oppressors of all sections and
