not as bright at the present time as
they might be. East ST. Louis, which

mined that the new league shall be a
success and efforts viii be made tc in,

New York-and in yours. my hearers here in Missouri; let them look at what has occurred In California. and what has occurred In Illinois. In Illinois, for in stance, one of the rascalities developed by the recent investigation was the ex- istence of combination of legislators who blackmailed fishermen along a cer- tain river forcing them to pay to pre- vent legislation which would have inter fered with their business
 Now, scoundrels who do these kinds of things are, of course, the very men who on the one hand, will blackmail corporation, if they get chance, and, on the other hand, will cheerfully, if the chance occurs, sell themselves to that corporation against the interests of the public Their corruption is no more due to the action of the corporations than the corruption of the corporations is due to their action; and evil. and not good, Is done by the honest, but misguided man who would persuade you that either fact Is true. Our duty Is to war; with equal sternness against the corrupt man Of great wealth, and the small who makes trade of corruption; our fight is against both the swindling corporation and the blackmailing or bribe-taking politician.
