country on this money question?
Ignorance personified, I mean. Ig-
norance of the masses of what seems
to be, if they are not, the intelligent
people of our country. Why, my
dear sir, the proof of their ignor-
ance is their argument, and it is
based on illusions they imagine we
financial reform people possess only
as an asset to our vocabulary of
imaginary evils before the country
as a whole.
The real truth of the matter is,
the people are ignorant of the issue,
and they are so biased in their opin-
ions they won't read but the bank
er's side of the argument, and 'tlet
good enough alone" is their shout.
They don't study the cause of such
disturbances as the panic of 1907.
All they seem to care for is that
somebody got it Strengthened out
no matter at whose expense.
No greater obstacle to the success
