It is not to be inferred from this that the new law will cause
factories to run day and night, or keep the merchant's door always on
the swing. There will be an increase of business surely; but this world
is not like a goose whose liver we are after. Her capacity to absorb
what we make or produce is limited, and when we reach that limit, let us
be content, and chain down Greed for the moment, that we may look out
and see how beautiful is this world whereon we live, when freed from the
crack of the master's whip.

Through Confiscation alone can the people regain their liberty and
possession of their resources.
A readjustment means justice to all.
Without it the days of the republic are numbered, and the overwhelming
disaster to mankind will mark the burial place of the aspirations of its
founders, and the latest conquest of individual greed.
That disaster cannot be averted by Grover Cleveland, the head of the
Democratic party, finding a foreign market for a few more shiploads of
our products. And never should the oppressed of other lands find an
enemy here to take their bread. Pinching nature has not made wolves of
this people that they should go and show their teeth among the cabins
and hovels of Europe.
