''Will you suggest that the political

the nomination of a majority of the

Il answer that a federation of such
liberty leagues could sweep the ma
chine out of existence and defeat ey-
cry candidate named by the machine;
that such an organization of precinct
leagues throughout the state colfld cas-
lily be accomplished, and in that con-
tingency could by postal vote name
its own delegates to a state convention
who would represent the rank and
file of the party and could oust from
position any political party therefore
existing.

litical corruption. with political rotten
ness, with political self-seeking and
with a corrupt alliance between ma
chine politicians and commercial in
terests engaged in the exploitation of
the American people by artificial high
prices.

cratic leagues be organized to oust the
machine politician of both parties and
we will have the national political
health restored"
