FRELINGHUYSEN FLAYS
DEMOCRATIC DEMAGOGUE
Says Fight Against Tax Bills Is Ore
Intended to BefOr the People as
In Free Silver Issue.

intenued 10 BefOr the People aS
In Free Silver Issue.
Washington. - That the effort Of
the Democratic members of the Sen
ate to prove that the Republican tax
revision bill removes the burden from
the rich and places it on the poor is
pure demagogism is the contention Of
Senator J. S. Frelinghuysen, of New
Jersey. He says:
"In harmony with the platform Of
the Republican party, wit hthe dec
laration fthe great president it gave
the country, and with the common
sense admission of the leader of the
minority. the majority in the House Ct
Representatives and in the Finance
Committee of the Senate favored
measure reducing war taxes on bust
ness.
But this revision, so necessary and
beneficial to all the people and not
merely to the rich, as the Senator
from Missouri, (Mr. Reed) would have
us believe, were met with stern objec-
tons on the part fthe Democratic
members of this body. In an unfair
appeal they have declared to the coun.
try, through the medium Of this de-
bate, that such reduction removes tto
burden from the rich and places 1t
upon the poor. They have let it he
known that as the only genuine
friends of the people in this body they
will protect them from such an out
rage. With a congressional election
in the offing and realization on their
part that the people reward their most
loyal servants, they beat their manly
breasts and point with pride to the
fact that at last the country is safe
fro mthe effort of the wealthy to cs
cape the duty of giving up the great
er part Of their incomes to support TIE
Government that made their succcss
possible. Lincoln said that God must
have loved the common people be-
cause he made SO many of them. Some
of those here would have us believe
that God hates the rich because he
made so few Of them. Anyway, there
are more poor than rich voters on
election day, and 1t seems to be much
more printable from a political point
Of view to tell the poor who are al
ready heavily taxed to support a great
war waged to protect the Nations
honor that the burden Of that war
should be borne by the rich. The in
ference is frequently made that all
the rich are profiteers, which makes
the argument seem all the more polit-
icallp profitable.
This is not the first time that a
demagogic appeal has been made by
the Democratic party, Apparently its
sole hope Of victoy lies in such an
appeal. The country has not forgot

us out Of war; There was no sincerity

New York. - Can you imagine any,
thing more intriguingly fitting than
that the first fortune in Wall street
should have been made yam alchem-
ist-except that an alchemist should
have selected Wall street for the site
of his gold-transmutation factory? So
1t was. 1t was Jan Max Lichtenstein,
native of Pomerania. who brought
here in 1888 his dream that the old al
chemists were right and that gold
could be made from dross. He pur-
chased a little house on Wall street,
erected triple-furnaced chimney and
went to work. He was the original
Wall street lamb" suppose, but in
spite of that, he made enough money
to retire on, because Of just owning
and sticking to his little house and
furnace there, until the city went mad,
according to him, and grew up around
him so that some absurd person paid
him $4,000 for his property!
