What Goes With Our Yearly
Increase of Wealth?

~ ued at one hundred and ten billions of
dollars ($11O,000,O O0OO0).
BY toll the producers add per cent
increase to this wealth every year, or 4,400,-
100000.
What goes acitA this fom billions, four
hundred thousand dollars?
It is estimated that one billion goes to
Europe to pay interest on capital invested
here, and to pay the expenses of our travel
lers, the dowries of the American heiresses
who sell themselves for titles, the amounts of
freight paid to foreign vessels, and the sums
sent or carried back home by the immigrant
who comes here to get our money.
Deducting this ,OOO,OOO,OOO from the
annual increase in wealth we have S3,4O0,OO0,-
600 remaining.
BY their sworn returns, the 1000 corpora
lions confess that they get all of this tremen-
dOus sum in their yearly net earnings.
But the Federal Government is now cost
ing us one billion year.
Therefore, 1t cannot Hve off the increase of
national qceozth.
The States and the Cities have to live; and
the expenses of their administration runs up
into the hundreds of millions.
Where IS the money to come from! Not
from the annual increase Of national 2Ueazth
Then come the yearly profits of private,
unincorporated banks, stores, mines, capital
lists, spectators, etc.
These profits mount to other hundreds of
millions Where do these come from? Not
from the annual increase Of national aceazth.
Every Outgo, in excess of the yearly
income, must cut into the corpus of the estate.
OR DECREASE THE NUMBER or
THOSE WHO OWN 4 SHIRE IN TT.
That process is now going on all the time
The laws giving Special Privilege to some,
enable them to devour others.
When the yearly increase of wealth is less
than five billions, and the profits of the
specially favored are more than that, what
does it mean?
1t means that some people are losing all
the share they formerly had, In the common

Socialism is on the increase because law

Militarism is on the increase, because those

COON after the civil war, the people VINO
- not had not Incorporated themselves INTO
banks, railroads, manufacturing establish
ments express companies, telegraph compa-
MES, etc. began to writhe under the loads Of
Special Privilege.
To those citizens who had taken our char
ters. incorporating themselves into artificial
persons, of various kinds, and for various
purposes, the law-making bodies granted
exceptional powers, privileges and exemp-
TONS
The power to tax, is the power to confs-
cate that power was lavishly granted to pri
vate corporations.
The privilege to take the property of 9th
ers, is vast sovereign power, which should
never be used, except by the public, for pub
lie purposes. But this sovereign privilege
was recklessly given to private corporations.
The immunity of being exempt from a fair
share of the public expenses of government,
is royal prerogative, not azoo0yS conceded
to Kings. But it was improvidently sur
rendered to these citizens who had united
themselves IN chartered corporation.
Such inequalities in citizenship created
inequalities in wealth. Such vast Special
Privileges made millionaires of the benef-
Charles, and paupers of the victims

his share Of canal rights.
Therefore, the great mass of the people at
whose expense the Special Privileges had
been moa0isezy and UNLAWFULLY
granted, writhed and groaned under the fear
full and growing loads of class legislation.
1t was seen that the o. S. Senate and the
Federal Courts were the strong holds of the
corporations.
1t was seen that the worst of all laws came
from the Senate; and that the best of laws
were the surest to be killed there.
These Senators were not voted on by the
people. The legislatures of the States elected
them.
1t was believed that, if the people directly
voted for their q. S. Senators, the voice of
the people would not be SO scornfully dis
regarded In the Senate
The people lost faith in the Republican
Party-that is, some of the people did.
The people lost faith In the Democratic
Party-that is some of them did.
Consequently, third parties sprang up, and
struggled for the people.
invariably, these third parties clamored
for the direct election of Senators by the peO-
pie.
The old Green6achers eere the first to put
this demand into q national PLATFORM.
Take off your hat to the old Greenbackers
of the Seventies
Those heroes never can be too highly hon
ored: they were the pioneers who, on foot,
blazed the trails that the Progressives are
now travelling IN automobiles.
The Union-Labor Party of the Eighties
also demanded the direct election of Senators.
Then came the Populist movement of the
Ninetie's which made the direct election of
Senators one of their corner stones.

LUMBER HAMLET
HAS $4,000 FIRE
Third Large Blaze That Has Wis
tied Mountain Mills in
Five Years.

Wilmington, March 9-Mountain Mills,
lumber hamlet about two miles south
of this village, had a 81. 900 fire early this
morning which is the third large blaze
that has visited that place IN five years.
The office building containing the store
and postoffice, the boarding house that
accommodated about 30 people and two
dwelling houses were destroyed The
large mill, which stands only about a
hundred feet from the burned buildings,
was saved by a fortunate wind which
swept the sparks away.
The fire was discovered at 4:45 o'clock
in the basement of the store and II was
eight o'clock before it was under control.
The Wilmington & Hoosic Tunnel rail-
road ran special train from Whining
ton TO carry men to the scene. Some OF
the furniture was saved in the dwelling
houses but scarcely anything was saved
from the store postofiice or office. The
loss is covered by small insurance.
This property was bought about year
ago from the Dcerded Lumber company
by the New England Hardwood company
which owned all the buildings burned.

Mills.
