CHAPTER 1.
1.-THE day Of small business.

A young fellow named Alexan-
der Hamilton once figured out
that the United States ought to
surround itself with tariff wall
that would keep out the competi-
tion of foreign trade. Then he
said, with. this wall about them,
American business men would
compete only with themselves and
this competition would keep down
prices, while the tariff wall would
keep up wages. The tariff wall
was made. Hamilton was right.
I'rices were low and wages were
high and there was competition in
business. Business was done
under the laws of supply and de-
mand, which / sometimes call
Gods laws because they are sc
fair. At this time the largest bust
nesses were partnerships. This
v.as the day of small business,

"a day of general prosperity"
CHAPTER III.

AS America grew and took in
vast mountains of metals, and as
the need for railroad transporta-
ton grew, there came a cry for
great amounts of capital. Single
men or even partnerships of five
or six men could nou furnish the
money needed. Only a hundred
men could raise SO much gold.
Then came the corporations. They
were built on the plans like those
of our government, with a presi-
dent, body of representatives,
and a legal department. This
country owes its development to
the fact that such things as cor
porations were brought into exist
Ience. A network of railways COW
cred the country. Wild lands were
tanned and mountains of metals
were opened. 1t was day of
general prosperity.

by socialistic oratory and socialistic ar
guments.
The audience of 1000 persons, which
is believed to have been the largest

flood of socialistic oratory. while from
the galleries of the hall hundreds of
