good people for the condition of af
Ialrs in America. You can have any
sort or government you want. If
you do not have the sort of govern
ment you want don't go growing
about it.
DO not know whether or no,
you are democrats by your looks or
by the ticket you voted There are
Just two kinds of people-democrats
and aristocrats. Abe Lincoln was a
democrat but he never voted the
ticket. An aristocrat is man who
thinks God made him out of a little
inner clay than he made ANYBODY
else. l say God made us all out of
the same clay and don't think it
was the finest either 1t is not a
question Of dollars and cents, it is
question of your attitude of mind.
Thomas Jefferson, the founder of
our party, was born of the bluest
blood in old Virginia, LAWYER.
scholar, statesman and diplomat,
founder OF the university, author of
the bill OF religious freedom, vice
president OF the United States, but
not candidate for third term.
ne ate Off a gold service plate,
mad servants and lackeys galore,
mad an "ostler" behind every chair,
yet he wrote the Declaration of In
dependence and said every man and
woman is entitled to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness, and
the government was to be equal and
exact justice to all men, and special
privileges to none, and that men are
full brothers. not half brothers.
Democracy Golden Rule
There was man so poor that
he did not know where to lay his
head; gathered to him the humblest
fishermen OF Galilee: and yet the
figure of that man looms yet larger
and larger upon the horizon of every
age and cline, bautifies, glorifies
and adorns every human heart that
will let it in. The vision of that
poor man in religion was the vision
Of Jefferson in statecraft, viz:
Whatsoever you will that men shall
do unto you, do you even also
unto them. That is democracy.
Our democracy has drifted into
aristocracy. Mr.. Morgan gave $780,
600 to the Roosevelt campaign fund
in 1904; then in 1907 in violation
Of the law he made out of the con-
solidation OF the United States
steel corporation and the Tennessee
Iron & Coal company more than
$50, 100000. Then in the campaign
OF 1908 he would not give more
than 100000 to the campaign.
Wasn't he a tight wad? Mr. Morg-
an and l are the two richest men in
America, between us we have more
money than anyone else. Just how
much We have | do not know. /
know he has about all of it. He has
not worked any harder than l have.
How did he get his money? He had

none. am going to have one there
on the 4th of next March, however,
and II you find dirty dollar cling
ing to the fingers of Tom Marshall
1t is your duty to impeach him and
throw him into the middle of the
Atlantic ocean.
Should Serenade Supreme Court
Everybody has been growing
about the trusts. Roosevelt had
seven and half years in power and
If Senator LaFollette is right he did
nothing, but had the finest admins
tration for the raising of trusts that
the world ever knew. Mr.. Taft has
been in. He has been dissolving the
trusts. II you watched the stock
market after the dissolution of the
trusts my friends you know what 1t
means. l think the trust magnates
should take their clarionet and SER
enade the supreme court of the
United States and sing:
Hallejuh thine the glory
Hallejuh amen,
Hallejuh thine the glory
Dissolve us again.
Both the old fashioned and new
tangled republicans propose regula-
ton, licensing and control of the
trusts. Who is going to control
