If You Go To The City Of Washington, And You Examine The Pages Of The Congressional Directory, You Will Find That Almost All Of Those Corporation Lawyers And Cowardly Politicians, Members Of Congress, And Misrepresentatives Of The Masses - You Will Find That Almost All Of Them Claim, In Glowing Terms, That They Have Risen From The Ranks To Places Of Eminence And Distinction. I Am Very Glad That I Cannot Make That Claim For Myself. I Would Be Ashamed To Admit That I Had Risen From The Ranks. When I Rise It Will Be With The Ranks, And Not From The Ranks.

Every One Of The Aristocratic Conspirators And Would-be Murderers Claims To Be An Arch-patriot; Every One Of Them Insists That The War Is Being Waged To Make The World Safe For Democracy.

Tyrants, These Red-handed Robbers And Murderers, The "patriots," While The Men Who Have The Courage To Stand Face To Face With Them, Speak The Truth, And Fight For Their Exploited Victims - They Are [called] The Disloyalists And Traitors. If This Be True, I Want To Take My Place Side By Side With The Traitors In This Fight.
