1t is undoubtedly true that prach-
cally all the money in the country Is
controlled BY very few men.
These men exercise a power that Is
arbitrary and dangerous. Such con-
dition is intolerab1e in a republic Such
power would not be permitted TO exist
long under modern monarchy, ana
should not under any other form of
civilized government.
That something must be done to curb
this power is admitted by all thought
full people who have the interest of the
United states at heart.
Whenever it becomes possible for
number of individuals to contract or ex-
pand the circulation of money, to raise
or detress prices, to establish conf
dence or to produce uistrust. 1T Is time
for the government TO act.
when IL becomes possible for these
people to depress the market. purchase
stocks at the lowest point, and by re-
storing confidence. raise prices to the
highest level again. and reap a har-
vest for themselves at the expense of
all lines of legitimate business en-
deavor. again / say, 1t is time for the
