MISSOURL PREAMBLE. | We believe there is a God, the | 1 | i i 1 He created all men free and equal, and endowed them with certain in- alienable rights such as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and that these rights are a common in- heritance and should be respected by all mankind. We further believe that any power | of influence that tends to restrict or circumscribe any class of our citizens im the free exercise of these God- given rights and privileges are detri- | mental to the best interests of a free people. While it is an established fact that the laboring classes of mankind are | the real producers of wealth, we tind that they are gradually becoming oppressed by conbinations of capi- tal, and the fruits of their toil ab- sorbed by a class who propose not only to live on the labor of others, but speedily amass fortunes at their expense, We hold to the principle that ali monopolies are dangerous to the best interests of our country, tending to enslave a free people and subvert and finally overthrow the great prin- ciples purchased by Washington and his glorious compatriots. We hold to the principle that the laboring classes have an inherent right to sell and buy when and wherever their interests are best served, and patronize none who dare, by word or action, oppose a just, fair or equitable exchange for the products of our labor. Therefore, in order to protect our- selves from the oppression of said combination of capital, and to secure the co-operation of the laboring classes in obtaining a just reward for the fruits of honest Jabor, we ordain the following: ArticLe 1.—Nawe anp Powers.
