professions. I serenely point to my ac-
uons to Justify my words
The Sovereign Had Adjusted Fitness
of Representative
of Renresenfatiye

Certainly no one can dispute the SOW
ereign right of the people to choose their
own representatives and 20 determine
their fitness. When a man has lived in a.
community for years and mingled with its
people, and they know who and what he
is, and weigh and discuss every matter
which enters into his desirability and fit
ness for the office or representative
and then deliberately intrust him with
their legislative power, no man can right
ly challenge his legal or moral right to
speak for them in the. legislature the laws
1884 some few people here seemed to
think that no man should be a represent
tative, if he earned his bread by the
practice of law and had railroads among
other clients, no matter what the mans
ideals, character or actions, and without
attacking my fitness in any other respect,
they raised that objection to me. If | had
been the owner of railroad, instead of
merely having some railroad clients, the
objection would have been without force.
In every free government all interests are
regarded in legislation. Indeed, when there
are representatives of every interest to
speak for thm in tn legislature tse laws
are more apt to be just to all. There
is no reason why a railroad owner, or a
banker or large merchant or farmer or
taxpayer, should not be sent to the leg
sature, If he be a good citizen and has
the public confidence Indeed the people
would be cut off, if they ostracised such
