in and frequently participate in stock
gambling to a scandalous extent, and,
at times, with the government funds
on deposit with them, and withhold
money from legitimate commercial
channels to engage in such gambling
and in ilnancing dangerous, uouuuui,
and sometimes, disreputable specula
tive schemes in this country and
other countries. And at times, seem
ingly with the knowledge of the
treasury officials of the United States
these banks and bankers have
loaned money for vicious and peril
ous stock gambling on the Stock
Exchange, and apparently such
money was hurried from the national
treasury to the vaults of those banks
for such purposes. A proper investi
gation will disclose such cases and
record evidence win be lounn to in
disputably support this allegation.
Along these lines an exhaustive in
vestigation should be made in the
interest of decency and good govern
ment as to the methods of these
groups of financiers in tapping the
national treasury to secure the
people's tax money to further their
stock gambling.

groups remain the master. They will

at that time we had over 200 miles in

But now with nearly 000

justified In calling attention to the

a persistent endeavor to prevent the
completion of this great international
transcontinental road. It is a
singular coincidence that Mr. Samuel

displeasure of the mysterious, sinister,
but palpable, influence called by him
the Money Power. As for those in

to the people whose own money Is thus
exploited by those with whom they
have temporarily entrusted It? No
single victim could combat this
oligarchy, even If it were amenable to

In further proof of their power
and dangerous methods, 1 quote trom

to Mr. Untermyer, dated January

Stilwell, an honorable man, is in
New York now fighting for his great
enterprise meaning so much to the
southwest and Mexico. The financial
freebooters are trying to destroy
him. Every patriotic American ought
to read his appeal from their midst
in the very shadow of Wall street.
To state it bluntlv these erouus of
financiers in New York, through their
cementing together the" fereat na
tional banks of New York City and
joining themselves together in con
spiracy and action, have taken under
their wings tho great railways, cor
porations, trusts and moneyed in
terests and made themselves the su
preme dictators of the financial situ
ation in the United States, with their
power reaching into the money
centers of Europe. And no man hut
themselves knows the depths of their
conspiracies and combinations, and
no other person will know till they
are searched to the bottom with the
strong arm of a congressional probe.
In a recent public address, Gover
nor Woodrow Wilson said:
"The great monopoly in this coun
try is the money monopoly. So long
as that exists our old variety and
freedom and individual energy of de
velopment are out of the question.
The industrial nation is controlled
by its system of credit. Our system
of credit is concentrated. Tho crrowth
of the nation, therefore, and all our
activities are in the hands of a few
men who, even if their action bo
honest and intended for tho public
interest, are necessarily concentrated
upon the great undertaking: in which
their own money is involved and who
necessarily, by every reason of their
luuuuuons, chill and check ana
destroy genuine economic freedom.
This is the greatest question of all
and to this statesmen must address
themselves with an earnest determi
nation to serve the long future and
the true liberties of men."
