time owns a small business, what is he going to do when the big interests which control his business say do so and so? Governor Wilson said that a member of the New Jersey legislature came to him and said, "I would to God I could stand with you, but I can't. They hold my notes."

The hopeful thing is, that about all that it is necessary to do is to expose these great evils and let the light of public opinion kill them. We have got to earn our own living, but we should feel ashamed of ourselves if we haven't a surplus to spend for the nation on that public opinion. Nothing can resist the mass of clear-eyed men backed with the purpose of establishing justice and peace without war.

Free Competition Destroyed.

There is nothing about which to be discouraged in our government. Anything looks black when you hold it up against the blazing light of Utopia; but it will look only marred if held where that light will shine upon it. Take for instance the impregnable jungle of our protective tariff. Hold it in the light and see the little demons curled up in its snarled roots and branches. There will be seen little devils of deceit and special privilege, introduced into the tariff, there introduced to each other, and then forming a collective family and posing as the idol of American prosperity. The tariff has not created our prosperity but the extraordinary genius of the American people. The area of free trade with in the country has been too great to allow the influences of the tariff to be felt, and it has made little difference what the height of the tariff so long as there has been free competition behind it. But that free competition has been destroyed, industries have combined, and are hiding comfortably behind the tariff wall. Prices have been regulated largely by domestic competition in this country, but since that competition has disappeared it is time to take steps to introduce other competition.

It is now time to re-establish that freedom which has caused our past prosperity. We are discovering again the principles upon which the nation was founded, and we are demanding proofs that the government is living up to its old ideals. Individual elements are continually being submerged in a common American stock of men who are looking for true liberty. We are now wondering what to do to recover that leadership of the world which belongs to us, and to re-establish the fame and majesty of America
