the people in government is the source
Of all political evil. Monarchy itself
is sometimes limited at as a possible
refuge from the power of the people.
''In my present position l could
scarcely be justified were 1 to omit
raising q warning voice against this
approach of returning despotism.
ut is not needed nor fitting here
that a general argument should be
made in favor Of popular institutions,
but there Is one point, with its connec-
tons, not so hackneyed as most others,
70 which I ask a brief attention. It
is the effort to place capital on an
equal footing with, If not above, la
Dor in the structure of government.
1t is assumed that labor Is available
only in connection with capital; that
nobody labors unless somebody else,
owning capital, somehow by the use of
it induces him to labor. This assumed,
1t Is next considered whether 1t Is
best that capital shall hire laborers,
and thus induce them to work by their
own consent, or buy them and drive
them to it without their consent.
Having proceeded so far, 1t is naturally
concluded that all laborers are either
hired labOrers or what we call slaves.
And further, it Is assumed that who
ever Is once a hired labOrer is fixed
In that condition for life.
"Now, there is no such relation be-
tween capital and labor as assumed,
nor is there any such thing as free
man being fixed for life in the condi-
ton Of hired laborer. Both these as
sumptions are false, and all inferences
from them are groundless.
Labor Is prior to and Independent
of capital. Capital Is only the fruit Of
labor, and could never have existed IL
labor had not first existed. Labor Is
the superior Of capital, and deserves
much the higher consideration. Capital
has its rights which are as worthy Of
protection as any other rights. Nor Is
1t denied that there Is, and probably
always will be, a relation between
labor and capital producing mutual
benefits. The error is in assuming that
the whole labor of the community
exists within that relation. A few men
own capital, and that few avoid labor

In Wisconsin he, has an almost au-

Minnesota there is already a third
party which has won two national
Senatorial elections. In North Da-
kota there is the Non-Partisan

United States Senators. In South

party, which for years has been not
the third but the second party Of the
State. In Montana there has been a
strong Non-Partisan League move
ment. In Nebraska there has been a

movement called the Progressive
Party"
In Iowa there is Brookhart. the
most radical of all Senators, who is

who is said by most conservative OBJ

Iowa again next year. In Washing

Dill who has been able to carry the
