Control of Corporations. ,-
Out of this great1: prosperity there hat

concentration of millions of muhey under

These conditions have brought "tie to con

In all the history of "the past, the repub
lican party has artee equal to each emeri
gencv. In the laat few -years It has arisen
equal to the new problems and has made
Itself master ot the most impending dan
gers. . . i
The most momentous, question that has
come before the American congress sine
the days of-' reconstruction of tha southern
states Is tje regulation of traffic rate
upon the 111.U00 miles: of railway that han
dle every jear 7.0.00.W of American
commerce. That Internal commerce repre.
aenls the product and wealth of this coun
try. It atiects every. ite, every locality,
every city, every community; 11, la. the life
blood or'ouf prosperity. The republican
party, now in control of the government,
and upoaklng through, the channels of con
gressional IcglsluUou lias declared that the
government lias the right to, regulate rates
of carriers of Inlerstatfr commerce. It la
a vindication' of the words and spirit , of
the constitution of th United States.- That
legisiauun . was out, tne spoken wisdom -ot
the republican party, put down In recorded
words In the form p! a law. It may be
that this piece of leghjiation Is Imperfect.
It may be experimental; but It Is a declar
ation of the principle lhat . Is firmly fixed
and Is aa powerful" ' the nation Itself.

which they go. -They will be builders of

commerce and to ail ' the people. To cut
them off, -or -to ctiop them oft, at state lines
under the process of state ownership, at
suggested by a democratic statesman, by
telegraph, from long range, from the capi
tals of European empires, would be disas
trous and unfortunate. It Is a democratic

The republican party, under a repuidk-en
administration, acting under direction of a
republican attorney general, caused to be
Instituted the Investhtatlnna and the proae.
rutlons which uncovered the long history
of concealed railroad 'rebates to favored
Interests and to the favorite few, sod we
believe has put an end to there.
The republican congress has enacted a
law hy which honest men will hereafter
renise either to give or receive these
favored rebates.

republican administration, has Instituted
Judicial proceedings to terminate the Heef

anitresaive movement against tne standard
Oil comnanv. and will not oult until It
has made that giant monopoly deal fairly
witn the people.
Mnny of the wronrs of which I make
mention have been long concealed. But the
republican partv nun already mane gretti
progress In purifying the financial world,
it has taken the lid off-and Is looking
Upon what is Innlde. It has cracked the
shell and Is seeing things as they are. It
I engaged In the vigorous work of looking
after the Welfare of the American oeople."
The party that was big enough tn hulld
up tins era or proxperlty is mg enougn to
control it.
The republican party Is about to take one
further step In advance. It Is about pre
pared to say. and It soon will declare, that
all persons nnd corporations that are en
gaged m dealing in -tne neeeearirs or nic
shall be subject to law and to govern
mental control.
Control of Coal Fields.
If the" time ever comes when It shall be
necessary for the government to rise In
Its power and insjesty and see to It that
the coal fields shall be kept in operation'
and coal delivered to our people to keep
them wnfrn "In winter, it will ntlt hesitate
to do It. This government has the In
herent power to sec to it that the. people
shall have the necessaries o( life, ahd that
no power either tnHt of hull virtual owner
ship, or by a combination of interests, or
jtrust8f.br carriers, or strikes sliaU' Inter
vene to urevent it.
It haa been said that this country Is 1
verging upop a period like that which pre
vailed In the Koniun empire, when Individ
ual endenvor did not have an opportunity
and when competition In trade and business
was destroy ea as between Individuals 'end
controlled by what are called the great
captains ot Industry. That may be so, but
It Is-nan 'a period for alarm. The Intelli
gence and patriotism of the American peo
ple are equal to this, as they have been to
every -other emergency. A destiny created
this country, a destiny ha ruled over it
from the 'days of George Washington to
Theodore Roosevelt; that same destiny will
continue to rule over it and our Institu
tions shall be preserved as an Inheritance
to our descendants through countless ages
as God's richest heritage - to hla chosen
people.
What the American people want In this
era hi to-se to lt as In times of old, when
the country was confronted by great ques
tions, that Its wisest and greatest states
men shall be the spokesmen for the Indi
vidual states In the United States senate.
Neither the people nor the corporations
have anything to fear from broad-minded
and highly Intellectual men. The weak
minded and mediocre millionaires are the
ones that corporations are able to control
and not the statesmen who have made the
past history of the republican party glori
ous. Let me express the thought by. an Inci
dent: John C. Calhoun, whose majestic
intellcttstood out prominent among all
the men ' who had ever spoken for the
south, lay dead within bis coffin In the
United States senate. There sat about his
bier Daniel Webster, who had been bis
great political adversary, and who had
made the name of Massachusetts almost
as glorious -as that of the general govern
ment. There sat Thomas H. Benton, the
master mind," who spoke for the west and
his own state of Missouri. There sat Henry
Clay, 'the brilliant orator and defender of
.the fame of Kentucky. Every seat was
occupied, and In the galleries were gath
ered the ladles, who represented the beauty
and the fashion of society. These three
giant Intellects looked at each other In
silence. There was the frowning brow of
one. There was the austere manner of an.
'Other, -as If meditating whether he might
forget, his atiimositiea. in-mat scene oi
death. It fell to the lot of Henry Clay
first to rise In his place and speak, and
tn closing a most eloquent -euloglum, aa he
looked at the empty chair which Calhoun
had formerly occupied, said with great
solemnity, and In his mellow tones: ."When
will that great vacancy ever be fll ed?'
. Suoh vacancies Massachusetts filled with
Us. Sumner and Hoar, New York, fl ed
with Its Seward and Conkllng. Ohio fllld
with Its Garfield an -Sherman, Indiana
glled with Us Morton and. Harrison. Mi ne
filled with Its Blaine, and. Illinois filled with
fts Lngatii What a galaxy of republican
names..- Let the people not forget their
defy -. 4jet us continue to. fll). the great va
cancies, in justice Xo ourselves and to our
country.' " r ' - - ' '
