that pull coupons from n0n-taxable
securities. Not the white collar
guy who spend their days in travel
and riotous living while their
white slaves exc out an existence
on starvation wages. Who else
should own the waterpower, coal
deposits and oil fields of the earth
if not the men who work from
early morn until late at night at
hazardous jobs that enormous pro-
fits may be piled up for the ex-
ploiters.
You say the coal fields, the oil
deposits and the great forests are
privately owned and SO we can't
get them? How did they become
privately owned? Did you ever
take time off TO find out? We
suspect not, else you would know
that congressman and senators
who were elected by the people
and sent to Washington to safe
guard the holdings and legislate
in the interests of the masses, sold
out their birthright for a mess of
pottage to the swindlers and the
grafters who operated under the
name of Big Business and by fraud
and trickery voted away the heri-
tage of the unborn citizens of the
United States. One has only to
mention a few of the steals. The
Guggenheim railroad concession in
Alaska, the Doheny-Fall oil leases
the Land Grant act whereby the
railroads were given thousands oi
acres of land. How were the meT
rewarded who made the deals pos
sible? BY being made directors il
railroads, banks, corporations anC
the like. Delving into the records
of the two major parties disclose!
the startling facts that nearly al
of the campaign fund were silenc'

concessions granted.
The great trouble with Mr.. Av
erSge Citizen is tha- he has beel
so busy trying to make both end
meet. he has had no time or energ,
to inquire into the business of tn
government, hence the old ship o
state has been left to the tende
mercies of those who were not in
terested in the prosperity of tn
many, but only used their talent
to exploit the rank and file whor
they pledged themselves to pro

fore a court Of justice would b
sentenced to be hung if our court
meted out to them the same par
ishment those guilty of minc
