He plays an interesting part, that soothes his vanity, that makes him think he is de ceiving humanity,deceiving God. deceiving himself, but he de ceives no one. The world winks at anything you may wish to do if you have surficient money to blind it. It is seldom able t o penetrate the armor, the rich cloths them selves, the fact is it does not care too. It sends a poor man to jail for stealing a loaf of bread to appease the hunger of a starving wife, it sends and other to congress who steals a million dollars. It send,^ a poor illiterate negro to the electric chair that takes his fel- lowmans life, it sends a rich and cultured man back to the bos- som ci his family who does the sairie thing, perhaps with less provocation. It flays with the redhotironof public spite and persecution, those the rich can not rule, and makes a virtue of vicious lies uttered by the irre- sponsables and seek to encourage it by trying to protect them from the consequences. And it is all done in the name of law, of re ligion, and morality.
