"Ain't goin' to vote at all." grunted the old man. "What, not exercise your duty as a patriotic citizen?" "Patriotism be hanged I A man's patriotism Is really what he considers his interest to be. You fellers know that for years I've watched the trusts reachln' out, legally, illegally, bribln. corruptin', as the case required, to rob people.

I seen the time comln when all the money a man could earn needn't go Into bfeef and oil ud be plenty as bad whisky, and we cud all live on what we used to live on afore the trusts sucked the life outer us. "I thought this was patriotism. It wasn't. It was nothln more'n klckln' a gin the other feller gittin the better of us.

When their stocks went up they larfed; when they went down they looked sour as green apples.
