Sequachee Valley news. (Sequachee [Sequatchie], Tenn.) 1896-1952, 1912-02-01

The term, graft, only lightly hints al
what has been done there. The hard
part of 1t is, after it is finished, it will
be turned over to private individuals
with which to rob unborn generations.
This government makes money. turns
it over to bankers to loan to the people
and then compels the people to pay
them an interest for taking it. Did
Moon ever condemn thist Did you
ever hear of him opposing landlord
ismy What does he or Williams pro-
pose to do for your votes Absolutely
nothing and when / see laboring men
going mad over either, or either of the
grand parties, think of the fellow
who went crazy and was sent to the
asylum. The boss put him to digging
a ditch, and when he bad finished it.
told him to fill it up again, then dig it
out again, and fill it up again. When
the crazy fellow became angry and
said he would not stay ans work for
such fools. We have been digging and
filling up for John A. Moon for IS
| years and if you ask him question
out of line when be comes around he
will get as mad as the crazy man, only
be won't quit.
Now, just suppose Socialism is here,
before he could become candidate. he
would sign his own resignation, and
when he tailed to do what the people
wanted done, they would recall him,
and elect another When he passed a
| law ii would be ratified by the people
before it became law.
Representative" must be as ig-
norant of Socialism as child or pre-
fers to wilfully misrepresent it. When
you know what it stands for you will
know just bow they will vote without
asking questions, and you will know
better than to say that Socialist will
vote for a Moon. By so saying you
reveal your ignorance. When you
charge me with being leader in the
party you misrepresent me and the
party to which I belong, as it's motto
is equal opportunity to every man,
woman and child, and there can be no
bosses is in the old parties. You men
tion Socialist leaders in your country
when they will deny it. They work.
and work hard, to convince their
brothers that we have the only party
ever proposed in the world for the
abolition of slavery by forcing every
man to produce his own living or
starve We propose to guarantee
everyone an opportunity to work and
thus we guarantee everyone life, which
no other party has ever proposed The
lands, the minerals. the forests, the
water power, and all of Gods gifts for
the blessing of humanity, have been
voted away by such misrepresentatives
as Moon forcing the people to give up
five sixths of their lives to the few fol
permission to live and exc out misera-
BILE lives.
You are traitor to the class to
which you belong, whether you work
OF not. You show your heart is wrong
BY rejoicing over the downfall Of your
brother, Mr. Turner, and thought you
would give Socialism slap by stating
that Turner was Socialist. You
must be a base liar to resort to one
every time you speak. You knew
better. Your little practice in the
justice courts set you crazy. If you
could go into higher courts you would
put all your neighbors and friends in
Jail to try to show that You were
smart. Your reference to your union
ism is as ridiculous. | feel that you
would betray your fellowman for a
few pieces Of silver, as Judas did the
Savior. You would be q good union
man as long as the soup would last.
If this should give out you would go
to the other side for soupsratber than
work for it. This is my opinion OF
you,
You show your ignorance when you
say, II will say few words on poll
tical economy" and proceed to talk of
the different parties, thus missing |
your subject AS far as if you had not
mentioned it,
You say you don't care to discuss
any state or national issue with me
any further. just as If you had said
something. Why, bless your little
capitallstic dwarfed soul, you have
never said word to interest even a
child. You know no more of econom- |
les than hog knows of Sunday. Ii
you had been born democrat, yon |
would have remained 80. You have |
never stopped. to wonder how the peo- |
ple lived and what they did before |
your republican party was created.
You are beautiful product of your
party.
Your reference as to knowing how |

YOU ever lead them9 Your prating |
