There will never be government
FAIR to all the people until all the
people have as good a chance to go to
CONGRESS as the rich man and his
lawyer.
The ONLY way to get law-making
body that will do what the people
want done is to have a SAMPLE Of
the people to make the laws
That sample will be as honest, in
telligent and fair as the people. 1t will
be interested as the people are inter-
ested. will want what the people
want, and will do what the people
would do.
However, the sample never can be
had by picking and choosing, but on
ly by taking at random, by chance,
by DRAWING LOTS. Let all file, free
Of expense. who wish to; then draw
lots. That's business. election is only
politics.
More than $500 years ago the people
of Athens realized that election re-
suited in government by WEALTH,
changed their method, chose their
law makers by lot, got a sample of the
people, and had business govern
ment, fair to all.
And the period which resulted is
known to all historians as the GOLD
EN- AGE of Athens.
