The "Little People" Are
ALWAYS Robbed
Somehow They Do Not Seem to Get Used It. By Learn
ing How to Vote They Gould Change Conditions Perhaps
But Being Robbed Is Easier Than Learning Vote

We have received a letter from who says lie had
small of money dishonest company in New
York The substance of his complaint that he can't his
money, and the other little ones get THEIR money,
because big people, be thought of first
The state of New York money of the deceased
trust company AS matter of fact the officials of the state
that put the money the company like the officials of
New York city that put money in that trust company might
well be held responsible for their lack of judgment"
And equally a of course, neither city
should take precedence ordinary
lacked the opportunity that the state and city had ascertain
the real character Of the company and who may have
been deceived and led by the fact that the city and the
state were deposors in the dishonest concern.
The who writes complains that IAN individual
has claim against the amounting $4,000, and
cs banking authorities unwilling to give the of that
individual who is holding off the payment of little claims
Our correspondent must realize that who has
chain Of $4,000 "a big fellow the little
people And big fellow very differently
psOpis as the little people ought to know by this time
It rs alleged that Andrew Carnegie contributed good
deal of the dead and dishonest trust company that
bore his He way responsible for the dis
honesty of the company he not the of the
pany But because took his he helped the company
with money He would have done pub
he his lack of confidence the and the fact that
he had connection with It, That would have protected
the little people who doubtless led deposit and lose
their money because his used.
This case of trust company anxious to look after the big
people and rather mpertinent dealing with little people
robbed, unusual
They say that the cells get used to being skinned 1t
would that by this time the little people might also
get used that painful process applied
quenty
The little people should remember that only united
gets results The big and rich closely
what is they and force represented their
nosnsy.
Every dollar represents days labor A million dollars
be she'd bv miin
IN dayteducting what it would those for
feed and clothing
When o has a million dollars ne combine in the
signing Of single check power by
IN day
That &s why the big powerful They use in com
p@ct form the money that represents accumulated millions
dsSS labor
sand men very powerful
Why should you be surprised when Won find that man
who has in bank the result Of the efforts of million
exert the power that exercise?
The little people unite and work in a compact body
$he dollars Of the big people united and put work
for the big peoples benefit,
And the little people work AT THE POLLS before
election the dollars of the big people WORK UPON THE
CUPIDITY OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS, IN SECRET. AFTER
THE ELECTIONS.
The fact that people have become accustomed to paw
ing little attention to They think and
plan for half day before they decide hat thew
will buy for the winter and they try dozen
clothes before they make their minds which purchase
But they pay very little if any o selection
of officials any of which may cost them the price Of
hats and many suits of clothes Ii will long
time for the people take the trouble TO THINK
themselves government compel passage of laws that
will LET them dishonest officials from
the passage of other laws that will compel referring max
ing to them and empower them to initiate their law
