When the money kings of this country see that THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE, and a united people, is back of President Roosevelt in his fight for the rights of the people and against the encroachments of organized greed, then the hired senators and all the other tools of Wall street will be filled with fright and will take to their legs ‘and run for their lives. ; WHEN PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT OPENED UP THAT FIGHT FOR GOVERNMENTAL CONTROL OF RAILWAY RATES AND A SQUARE DEAL FOR EV- ERYBODY,.
