BY REV. GEORGE r. LUNN

Mayor OF Schenectady, New York.
The people of America haven't yet
begun to realize what this fight
means. It's as great a fight for lib
erty as our forefathers put up In
1776. Indeed, / say before all men OF
this nation, that it is the same
fight.
This time King George and the
British are wearing the broadcloth OF
the American plutocracy, and their
red coats" are the officers of the
law. most of whom they can control
along with the militia.
This plutocraey hasn't openly de-
clared it's fight yet. But its MEM
bers are constantly showing their
hands by their attempts here and
there to close our mouths. They are
soon going to try, I believe to stop
us altogether spreading the light.
II Is to their interest to keep the
masses ignorant, for only ignorant
people can be controlled like sheep.
This attempt to take away from US
citizens of the United States the
greatest right the constitution gives
us, the right OF free speech, shows the
of the plutocracy.
But the plutocracy has no idle job
on its hands in America If 1t starts
as 1t has in San Diego. Seattle, Law
renee and Little Falls. to abridge our
constitutional rights to express our
selves where we will. 1t will have as
hard a time as King George did to
make us drink his tea.
We will not fight, we people; we will
