In December, 1906, John B. Peterson had relations with railroads and other corporations that fhrbid him taking up any private law business. In fact, his time was so entirely taken up in corporation work that he was not looking after other business. Mr Peterson is the democratic candidate for congress. The democratic party has been throwing up its hands in horror of the corporations for a dozen years and early in the campaign assured the people that Mr. Peterson was not a corporation lawyer. The Republican has never felt so very titter toward corporations and realizes that the great employment institutions of the country were made possible only by the combinations of capital that has confidence in the future and has builded with the belief that the American people were appreciative of their work. They have legal requirements that must be represented and they get the ablest lawyers they can to represent them. In Lake county various corporations have found Mr. Peterson to be the man. He has made good as their lawyer and has been so occupied by his attention to their work that as far back as four years ago he could assist in no private work. Mr. Peterson was doing his duty in the matter of building up personal success, but he was not shaping himself as a worthy man to represent in the law making department of the government, the very people whose cases he could not take against the corporations. If he chose to be the lawyer or corporations and for years trained himself for the defense of corporations, he has doubtless, although perhaps unconsciously, become biased toward corporations to an extent that makes it advisable to restrain him from becoming the representative of the people. If he is the lawyer of the Standard Oil Co., of the Standard Steel Co., and of various railroads, you or I would not expect to secure his services against the men he has been working for, for years. We would not ask him, would not want him, and would not trust him. There is every probability that the corporations who have him employed are seeking his election. That is the usual method they employ for getting their kind into the law making departments of state and government and it is the duty of the people to keep him out If he were a republican every democrat in the district would oppose him because iff his employment, and we feel confid® that there are enough democrats who would be honest in their opposition to oppose him now, when be is selfconfessed four years ago as being so connected with railroads and other corporations that he can not accept private employment *
