Congress legislates constantly with the intent to control the property. the business affairs. the morals. the manners. the sentiments of the country. so as to accomplish the purposes of a political party. instead of legislating for the liberties and material welfare of the great body of the people that we represent. Its legislation is fitful and often whimsical. It grants hundreds of millions of acres of land to railroads in obedience to a great clamor for public improvement and for immigration to the Pacific. It then stands by and allows those grantees to abuse their powers so long as they are enriching men of great influence and contribute to the support of a dominant party. When the people wake up to the injustice they are compelled thus to undergo.
