Companies have run up their rates enor-
nous y.
Already, these corporations have sold $134,-
100000 Of new stocks and bonds on the
strength of that increase in freights.
The $134000,O00 of new paper doesn't rep
resent the investment of single dollar. It
is another mortgage on the future business of
the country; and every merchant, farmer,
conslgnor and consgnee, will feel a part of
the burden
The railroads are what hurt US, not the
ships.
But there is this feature of the Ship
Purchase bill that interests me greatly:
Those Democrats 2ch0 are defending Prosi-
dent Wilson AaDe to mule P0puziSt speeches!
The very points that Col w. L. Peek, and
Blue Fred Wimberly, and c. G Post, and
James r. Hogan, and John n Traylor, and
Jere Simpson, and your Uncle T. e. W., used
to make IN fooor Of the governmental oD,oe7-
slip Of raizr0ads, are now being made in
Congress by the defenders of President Will
sons pet measure.
That's one thing that worries Smith and
Hardwick. They balk at caucus law, when
the caucus goes in for Populism.
Don't you go and laugh about this.
