Thus It has come to peas that the congress of the United Btatea la ever ready to foster the robber trusts while the people are starring. We talk of reform along certain lines, we hold monster meetings and petition congress far the passage of certain laws la the interest ef the people, and we watt and fondly hops for good wholesome legis lation whan the very men who are to pass the laws bare sold themaelree to the money changer*. W# mutt break the hold whloh tht money power has upon this nation ere we cea hope for reform. We must scourge the Shylocks from the capital even as Christ eooirged the money changer* from the temple and w* must turn out the unfaithful ear ran:*, and with them the corrup tionists, the lobbyists, the rogues and prostitutes who make of the greet eap ltol building at Washington a veritable den of tblawe. if we would bare the stream pure we must purify the bead waters, so If we would hare lost laws, passed In the In ter set of the men and women who hare produced the wealth of this nation, we must work a reform ation among those who gars as tbs laws.
