The exposure Of the slush fund in

by the senatorial committee Of In

thing eoneIusiVely, namely, that the

After such proof has been furnished,
the support given by labor representa-

That the money power controls the

election machinery, that it controls
the two old parties and their selection
OF candidates, we knew before; but to
the labor movement it becomes dis
