not blind. in their allegiance to che
money power, for the trusts reward
them and retain them in office in spite
of the protests and in spite of the eff
forts of honest citizens.
In return for the service of Tam
many's craven Congressman the trusts
promised the Democratic party in New
York the support of that section of
the Republican party which they con-
troll.
The trusts can make their trained
animals on the Republican side jump
through the hoops and walk on their
mind legs over to the Democratic side
quite as readily as they can make their
trained Democratic animals range up
In rank and bark and beg upon the
Republican side.
This proposed political combination
was defeated last year by the indie
pendence party, and Tammany was
driven out of power in the city Of
New York.
The trusts and the politicians they
control are again seeking to carry out
their infamous compact this year and
are attempting to install Tammany in
power in the whole State of New York.
