I URGE you for the sake of
your common country, for the
sake of what is even nearer
and dearer than that, the lib
erty of men, the freedom of the
human soul, which alone
makes life worth the living; /
ask you to say that men shall
be free, and if in the open dis
cussions between free men my
clients triumph, well and good;
they ought to triumph; and if
they are wrong their theories
must go down.
I urge you to stand for the
right of men 10 think; for the
right TO speak boldly and un-
afraid; the right 10 be master
of their souls; the right to
live free and TO die free.
There is no other cause that
is so much worth while. There
is no other sentiment or emo
ton that ever moved the hui
man soul as priceless as this.

happen to the world except for
these rebels? What do you
suppose would have happened
to the working men except for
the rebels all the way down
through history?
Think of the complaisant,
cowardly people who never
raise their voices against the
powers that be. If there had
only been these, you gentlemen
would be heWers of wood and
drawers of water. You gentle
men would have been slaves.
You gentlemen owe what
ever you have and whatever
you hope for TO those brave
rebels who dared to think
and d d TO speak and
dared 10 act.
And if this jury should make
it harder for any man to be
a rebel, you would be doing
the most you could for the
damnation of the human race.
DO not know whether So
cialism or Communism will
work or not. l do know that
Capitalism does not work.
I do know that our present
system of industry is a crazy
quilt that allows no man to
be really honest. that allows
no man TO live without sac
rificing his fellow man.
I know that the present sys-
tenn does not work. | know
that it makes men greedy and
selfish and mean. l know it
STILES every good motive in
man. 1 know that under the
present system no one on earth
can be as good as he would be.
I know that capitalism does
not work and never can work.
NONE of these devout lovers
of the capitalistic state, all of
whom are sure they are going
to Heaven-not one of them
would want to go to Heaven
If it was run on the same
scheme as the earth.
Not one of them that be-
Geves that this system could
live anywhere except upon
the earth. MY clients believe
that a system fit for Heaven
ID fit for earth.

men. Tomorrow it will be
somebody else.
You can only protect your
liberties in this world by pro-
tecting the other mans free
dom. You can only be free if
am free. The m e thing
would get me may be used to
get you, and the government
that is not strong enough to
protect all its citizens ought
not to live upon the face of this
earth.
THEY have right to think,
they have a right to proselyte,
they have the right to their
opinion and to make their opin-
ion heard.
This is what I plead for, and
l am not interested in whether
their opinions are right or
wrong.
If they are wrong, the Amer
lean people under free discus
sion can find the wrong; and
if by any chances these opin-
ions shall convert the United
States, then the United States

This hue and cry of to-

THIS hue and cry of to-
i day, is moved and insti-
gated by gang of profiteers
who would strangle freedom
that they might get rich; who
would traffic in the blood of
men; who have determined
that in this country no voice of
criticism shall be raised against
them.
I am interested as to wheth-
er this country shall be ruled
by the constituencies men who
would stifle freedom of speech
when. it interferes with their
gold; or whether you will stop
this mad wave that threatens
to enguf the liberty of the
American citizens.
MUST SAY that in all my
experience, which now covers
AZ years, it seems to me l never
saw a case where every cheap
feeling has been appealed to,
where everything has been
done to swing a jury FIR m
their duty that they might join
the mob.
There has been no effort to
see that these GOD defendants
had a trial as should be had in
an American court.
I AM not h ere to defend
their opinions. l am here to
defend their rights to express
their opinions.
Above everything else on
earth. men should cling fast
TO their right TO examine
every question; TO listen TO
everyone. no matter who he
is; TO hear the spoken words
and read the written words:
because if you shut mems
mouths and paralYze their
minds. then the greatest
truth that is necessary for
the welfare Of the human
race may die.
You are really asked to make
America the home of the ty-
rant, the informer and usurer,
who is willing to trample laws
and constitutions and human
rights beneath his feet, that
he Rsay plumber undisturbed.

They are dreamers. Thssir
principles were formed by all
the ages. They did not make
them.
These have come down to
them in a direct line from most
of the idealists of the world.
Karl Marx voiced it better than
any one else.
THEY are dreamers. It is
true counsel has slurred them.
But why, gentlemen? Why?
Gentlemen, somebody is in
terested in this case.
Today they are after these
men. Tomorrow they will be
after Gompers and the trade
unions and everybody who
dares defy their power.
They know perfectly we'll
that these men are reformers;
but the men who are response
bic for this law would be glad
to get the three or four million
trade unionists who are banded
together for the protection OF
each others rights, and not
only for the protection of each
others rights but for the pro-
lection of the right of every
other man to express his opin-
ion.
They know that in the next
year or two mills win close,
railway employees will be dis
charged. Then will be a good
time to send trade unionists to
prison.
DO you suppose they care
for these men on trial? Oh no.
They have got too much brains
for that, although I would not
accuse the hackers of this law
with being overly intelligent.
They are out to rule the
world. They are out to make
money. They are out to des-
troy whatever is between
them and their prey.
