Book excerpt: Excerpt from Questions National and of National Importance to Every American Citizen: With Reference to Questions Municipal HE object of publishing this little volume is to illustrate to the people, from the stand point of a true American citizen, and not from that of a partisan only, that if true benefits are derived from properly enacted tariff laws, they must be fully supported by properly enacted im migration laws; that, if we have tariff laws, which are a known necessity, we must have, also, just as stringent and just as equally forcible immigra tion laws for true protection. Also, that the money question in connection with those of tariff and immigration, although each performs its part, is not the only great question that so disastrously harms the welfare of our people. But, that in connection with the great principles, as taught by the representatives of the great political parties, there are other questions of equal importance to us as American citizens; and, which will need our attention in turn fully as much as either of the questions named. They are such questions as anarchy and unscrupulously invested capital; not legiti mate capital, but that, which with its most um merciful and unprincipled methods of transacting business, crushes the very life out of the great mass of American people for its own Special ben efit; the one, anarchy, as a result, is the product of the other; and, each is an extreme and setapart from true humanity, performing the Oppo site criminal functions, which have been and will be, until true legislation sets aright such wrongs, the means of perpetrating the greatest criminal acts relating to business and financial matters; and, as well as being a detriment, and a most decided drawback to the advancement and gen eral welfare of a civilized and enlightened Ameri can people. If we establish true laws for the interests of humanity, generally, then we will have founded a true system of government, which is the same as we now have, when we have had enacted such additional laws that will restrict, fully, all im proper acts and abuses, bearing particularly upon the welfare of our people.
