| The square deal demands that we
take our administration institutions
above the level of money. In no ma
ton can you get justice without the
use of money. Justice is the most ex-
pensive luxury on this earth. The
fault is not with the Judge and the
lawyer, the Judge is usually man
/, OF uncorruptible integrity. II the
multi-millionaire can put paddock on
the lips Of Justice, the humblest poor
devil should have the same privilege.
Both prosecuting and defending at
| torneys should be salaried servants
of the commonwealth. not paid by in
dividuals.
| The square deal demands a Just
taxation. The common people Is the
goose which is plucked. A tax is a
terrible thing, it's the quintessence OF
national sovereignty. A tax is a lit
tie thing but there's the power OF life
and death in it. If our means of col.
lecting taxes Is unjust 1t is a fact that
our people, some Of them will be pin
ned down, while some others will
soar to millions. The people who own
seven-eights of the property OF the
country pay only one-tenth OF our
taxes. Is that square deal? You
must have honest taxation to have
! square deal Make commonwealth
bear the burden.
The solution Of our problem lies
I in our choice Of public men. Choose
statesman and patriot. For we
become what our leaders make u.s.
! The age Of Pericles was the age Of
glory, let us have leaders like the
leaders Of Pcricles' age. Men who
are not afraid of us, men who can re-
/ sist us when we're wrong-these are
the men we need. We want men who
will serve the people, not for the
praise of people-for It's the tragedy
OF human history that the leaders
have all had their Calvary. But / be-
l'evc the crooked statesman is DOOM
ed. Chas. e. Hughes of New York,
LaFollette. Jos. w. Folk, woodrow
Wilson. tfese are but types Of men
who are coming to the front. The
time is coming when Justice shall
smile equally on all, when we shall
all know the square deal. The square
deal shall be the rock everlasting up
on which the future shall be builded."
