In Which We Make u Meek

Whom do our representatives i'll
the legislature really represent. the
public or the business interests?
One is inclined to ask the question
as a result OF the nature of u pre-
ponderance of the bills introduced.
Money, taxes. the consolidation Of
profits, insuring OF more profits,
bills to help monopoly and the ten
denotes toward monopoly. aid for
this concern and that. protection OF
the rights Of capital. help for the
insurance companies. slams at inde-
pendent bus lines and assistance for
the monopoly bus line-these most
ly constitute the bills. Once in a
while some bolshevik comes along
with a bill about human rights, but
when his name gets in the paper it
is discovered he is some Democrat
who is under the impression the
Il sislature exists to help all the peo-
pie and not only some OF them.
The talking, thinking and acting
on material topics is one of the
symptoms of the age. There was a
time in the history of the country

lustrious Theodore Roosevelt-when
the common man had something OF
