Westor Chattte Long of Kan as, tha Santa Fa Senator from Kansas at ha at baan aptly tanwad comat to*
nrght ta ad« t« tha peep • of Osiahama at he* to vote on Tateday, tha 17th.
Whan a man comat hare from anothar etata it it frtt>ng and proper to atk who ha it, what ha rapraaantt and
0/ what authority ha presumes to g.vt advica or count#? ta a paopla amply able to taka car# of their own affairs
and to thmk for thamta<vas.
Cheater I. Long was oJoctad to tha aanata from Kansas not by tho vo<c? of the people of Kansas but by a cau-
cus of rai'road presidents he'd m the ofhco of George Gould, thon president of tho Union Pacific in the Western
Umon building .n Now York city. The iag.slaturo of Kansas was in §e»**ion. Stanley, tho retired governor wai
a cang.dato for senator; Charles Curt.a, recently aiactsd as tha colleague of Long, was anothar candidate. N. H. Loom•
<•. then end now the general attorney for the Union Peofic railroad and on# of tho big wigs in tho Kansas politi-
cal mach.no was for Curtis. Loomis was working hard for Curtis whan one day ha got a talagram from Winslow
S Piorca, m Now York, genera! counsel for tho Union Pacific railroad at that time, to support Long as, in tha
judgment of th# railroads at a mooting hold in Now York, Long boot roprooontad their ideas of government and
would boat represent thorn in tho United States aanata. Loomis reluctantly switched to Long and Lang was elect-
ed. It ts to tha credit of Marcus a Lew, vice pros.dent and general attorney for tho Rock Island system who was also
for Curtis, that ha d.d not switch. When Loomis switched tho legislature ratified tho action of tho mooting hold
•n George Gouid’a office in New York and Chestor |. Long was elected for ths full term. Long wee George Gould'a
senator, elected by George Gould, and George Gould owned him.
Since ho has been in the senate four years, Long has done nothing to displease hit corporate masters Ho
as th# fr.ond of ra-iroad regulation yet ho voted against every amendment to the rate regulation bill which
**•• really intended to regulate the railroads. Ha posed as tho friend of rate regulation till Senator LaFoiiotto of
W-sconsm took his hide off and hung «t up to dry. Long wont around over tho country exhibiting a latter he had
received from Roose/ait congratulating him on tho course in the rote will when everybody knows ho was dragooned
and whipped by h.s own constituents into voting for tho final passage of tho make-shift bill which i* now on tho
itatut* books.' Ano when the president wat lookirg around to find somebody to manage the rate bill f.ght on the
floor of the sonete, why did the president have to tjrn to Ben Tillman, a democratic senator from South Caro-
lina” Why d.d ho not select Long? Because the president knows and every body slot knows that Long was
timp1/ trimming hi* sails to the wind. Long saw that the peop'-e were bound to have some sort of rate legislation.
So he apparent y acqu.escad in tho demand and then set about to give ;he people what they thought they wanted
b.it wh.ch is rea y about as inoffonsivs a rate bill a& cou'd be framed. Long was working for the ra*!roeds then, he
<» working for the railroads now and he has worked for the ra* roads and the other corporations all his life.
When LaFoilette on the floor of he senate offered an amendment to the rate bill limiting the hours of work for
ra road employes, prohibiting these corporations from working their men from eighteen to twenty-four hours at a
stretch. Long voted NO. When LaFoilette showed that the amerdmont would raise the standard of railroad em-
ployees throughout tho country and decreasa tho number of wrecks. Long vo ed NO. Long voted no because the de-
crease m the hours of labor would moan the employment of more men and the emp'oyment of more men would mean
more e*pence and his corporation masters do not want in cr*asod expenses and higher wages. What they want is
higher dividends and increased capital stock.
When LaFoilette introduced hit amendment to tho rate bill on tho floor of tho senate provid ng that the In-
terstate Commerce Commission should proceed to ascertain the actual valuation of tho physical properties of the
re 'road corporations throughout tha country Long voted NO. The ascertainment of the value of the physical prop-
•rt.es would inevitably disclose the wind and the water m the stocks and the bonds which tha people are paying taxes
on ar.d Long's corporate matters dread this move most of all other things and so ho voted NO.
When LaFoilette proposed thot the finding of the Interstate Cemmsrss Commission should stand until tho
court of lost resort pronounced tho finding unreasonable and unjust. Long voted NO. Thia amendment meant that
whan tha commission found that the railroads had been charging unjust rates, that the rata fixed by the commis-
sion should at onca go into effect and remain in effect till tho courts decided that it was wrong. But as it stands
tho ra. roads can contest tha findings of tha commission and delay tha hearing for two or three years and all tho
time charge tho rate which has been found to bo unreasonable, unjust and confiscatory. Long voted with the
railroads. Ho voted against th Interstate Commerce Commission. Remember that ha voted NO.
When LaFoylotte proposed that tha Intoratato Commtrco Comimaaion shou'd have increased authority to reg
ulata equipment for tha safety of human life both of tha possangara and tha railroad employees themselves, Long
voted NO. Long would rather that tha railroads should kill a hudrod employees a month end a hundred pas-
sengers a month than do anything which would possibly give offense to the silk stocking crowd in New York
which elected him and which owns his body and his voice.
Last winter when tha paopla of Kansas ware trying to drive tha legislature to give them docent passenger
rate, such a rata as is enjoyed by all ths neighboring states, and a decant freight rate, such afreight rate as is en-
joyed by oil tho neighboring states, tho Long crowd, tho Long machine stood like a stone wall between tho people and
tho railroads and tha result was that every measure asked for by tho people was defeated except an anti-pass
law*
When tho people of Kansos last winter demanded that a primary election law ba passed which would give
thorn a chance to select their own officere, fro# from tho corrupting influences of tha corporations, Long hurriad to
Kansas and personally saw to it that tha primary bill was strangled. Had d this for his own selfish interacts be-
cause he knows that if it ts aver left to s direct vote of tho people ho will ho buried under the avalanche.
Long's whole career in Kansas is a career of corruption, a carter of boot-licking the corporations and the men
who direct tho corporation^.
Long hat boon a member of tho senate committee on Indian affairs over ainoc ha haa baan in tha senate or
vary nearly all of tho time ho haa bean m tha aanata. Ha has made several trips to tho Indian Territory as a mem-
ber of thot committee ostensibly on an investigating tour but always in tha private car of tome railroad magnate
and accompanied by a lot of railroad end land grafters. What it Long's record regarding legislation for thia terri-
tory? What has ha ever proposed for tha paopla of this territory which was to their interest? Let him name one
measure which ha haa introduced in tho senate or one amendment which he offered a bill introduced by some
one alee which was for tha good of the people of this territory.
When LaFoilette woo making the fight to save the great coat and iron lands of Indian Territory from tho
grasp of tho railroads, whan tha fighting senator from Wisconsin was demanding an investigation by both houeoe
of congress and tha rosorvation of all unoccupied and unsold lands for tho benefit of tho Indians who wore tho or-
iginal owners of tho soil and all that lay underneath, Long voted NO. Long said that LaFoiiotto was "grand-
standing," that LaFollatta was an "alarmist," that LaFollotta was a "dangerous agitator" and a few other things
lika that which tha tools and tha lackeys of tho corporation# have over at tho ends of their tonguoa. Whan La-
Foiiotto put tho question squarely up to tho sonato, tha lands wore partially saved by tha votes of tho democrats
in tha sonato, but Long voted NO. Long voted to give everything to tho railroads which they wanted and which
thay did not thon pottos. That haa always boon Long*o position. If thero is anything loft which tho railroads
want, give it to them. Give them the whole country and tho people can have tho Philippines Islands if they want
thorn.
When th# quoetion of the building of tho Panama canal came along. Long was opposed to it because tho
Santa Fa, tha Union Pacific, tha Southern Pacific and the other transcontinental railroads w*re opposed to it.
The building of tho canal meant the docreasmg of freight rates to tho Pacific coast and for years and years tho
railroads maintained an expensive lob >y at Washington fighting ovary form of an isthmian canal and Long was
right in Ima with tha railroads. Ha thought tha building of tha canal was "unwise at this time," ha thought tho
people had batter “deliberate and select tho moot available route." Ho was not sure that American laborers could
live m tho miasmatic atmosphere of tho Isthmus of Panama, and ha did not think any but American labor should
bo employed in tho building of tho canal. Thia was really touching in view of tho fact whenever tho interests
of tho laboring man of tha country meant tha expenditure of one dime on tho part of tho railroda masters Long
has always been for tho corporations as ho showed m hit vote on tho LaFoilette amendment limiting tho hours of
labor on tho railroads of tha country.
Whan tha Secretary of tho Interior. Mr. Hitchcock, waa fighting tha Standard Oil Company in its attempt
to grab tha Oaago oil lande and want before tha Sonata committee on Indian Affairs and tha house comm ttee on
Indian Affairs Long voted for everything the Standard Oil company's friends wanted. When the Secretary of
th# Interior saw that it wae impossible for him to beat tha job ho proposed that the amount of od tand to bo leased
to tha Standard Oil dummies ba limited to tha actual oil bearing territory, Lorg voted NO. And it was only after
a hard fight tha tha secretary was able to limit the acreage to be leased. Long not orly voted with the Standard
Oil Company, but be used all of b>t influence to see that the Standard Oil Company got whatever it wanted Long
voted for tha Standard On company because the railroads and the Standard stands in as closely s» two brothers and
he it the willing tool of both.
Long went into the senate a poor man. He is now rich. He has trafficked in official recommendations as he
haa t affickeu m little side issue# likelndian land issues. It was a notorious fact in Kansas three years ago that
when nobody else could grt a lean# approved m the Cherokee nation a certain Karas* banker, now a state officer in
that state, could get all the leases approved that he wanted and he was able to do this because be was ora of tha
king pms in the Long machine in the then Seventh congressional district where l org has resided for so many
years.
Long ha* treated hie senatorial position as though it is a personal chattel. He knows ho was e acted by tho
railroads. He knows that when tho legislature was in session and there was danger of the election of either Cur-
I t or Stanley, that ho slipped to New York and had the meeting called in Goo go Gould's off-co ard that hs thon and
there mad# pledges end promises suff'Ciently attractive to those millionaires to o u-e their support for him.
He knows thet the people of Kansas know that hi# ci*mpaigra have been paid for by the railroads out of m<*no>
wrung from the people m tho shape of freight rates. Ho knows that tho people of Kansas know that since ho hat
been in the senate he has absolutely dno one single thing which can bo twisted into a service for tho common
people except his vote on the rote bill and that was foretd on him by indignant constituents.. And it waa only
after months of prodding, only after the commercial bodies of Kansas had adopted resolutions demanding that Long
make known his position in ths matter of tho regulation of rates that ho finally gingerly announced that ha waa
in favor "of oqu>tablo rata regulation, a'egulation which would bo fair to the people and to tho corporations."
Thet is the kind of regulation Long stands for. Roosevelt knew that and Roosevelt tried to hold tho one vote
because he needed it for the passage of ths make-shift bill. Bo Roosavott wrote tha letter which Long exhibits as a
badge of personal political independsne* but which io merely a string of words and can ba read any way yau
choose.
Throughout tha State of Kansas which ha misrepresents in tha aanata and where ha it bast known, tho
name of Chester I Long is a synonym for all that is oorrupt, for all that is tricky, for all that is degrading in pol-
ities and moral* His hanchman under his orders, drive the members of tho Kansas lagislaturaa as a farmer drives
his sheep They have ruined the souls of hundreds of promising men. Thotr poker parties, their orgies in var-
ious place*, their bracen disregard of ell tho principles and tenets of moral ty have become so notorious that it is no
longer now# to tell tho story in Kansas. Mention tho "Long machine" and nothing more need bo said. It stands
for every conceivable form of wickedness bocauao it cannot accomplish it* objects through honorable ways and
op an paths. It must resort to darkness and tho mysteries of darkness for its continuance. Tho Long machine never
works in tho daylight, never works m tho open. It is tho Mohs of Kansas politico, its weapons are the stillotto and
tho sling shot
Th*s is tho man, tha man who has built up this kind of n organisation and who glories in it, thio man who
dare* not think except ho has first received a wire from hie Now York masters tailing him how ta think, who
comet to Tulsa to moult tho intelligence of the voter# of this community and other communities by giving them
advice as to how to vot# at the election which it coming -m Ho come# away from hit own stale thinking that
the people of Indian Tarntary are not posted but ho will find that ho is gnavouely mistaken, that this tarritary haa
enough grafters end corruption without importing tho Konoao idea, and ho will find that tho people of this ter-
ritory will repudiate him end all tho rest of hi# tribe by euch a majority that it will take day# ta count it.

rt-sult-. In addition to looking into
the matter of how thoroughly certain

Perhaps the car shortage feature
ought t-» be given prominence In con-
nectlon with Mr. Un»*'i errand, as his
investigations, t<*gether with the earn-
!»-stn«*s* of the railroads in keeping
; their promises to furnish tetter aer-
v!c#» to shippers, may have a gr«-at
df»al to do with indicating the n*-ed of
further hgixlat on affecting transpor-
tation at the coming session of Con-
gress. Tho commissioner undoubtedly
will use his Influence to have the car-
riers mni-t the demands of the Western
country and prevent if |H»ssihle agita-
tion to force more drastic legislation
than already has been enacted.
Car Shortage Situation.
Agents of tho interstate commission .
qulrtly have been investigating the ]
observance of the new law provisions
by the railroads of the Far West, and
Commissioner l-an« will meet thi-m .
and gi t their reports. "I am going to
look Into the ahortag** matter Just as
thoroughly as possible," said Commis-
sioner Lane today “Anything I can do
to Inform th*» ra Iroads of conditions
so that they can meet the demands of j
shippers I will do. The government
already has s»-t an example to the peo-
ple by ordering Its furl f*»r next winter
