He fought the Pullman Co. and forced a redfiction of its rates in the wellknown case of Loftus against Pullman Co. On every public question he has done a mans work. And remember that his immigrant parents were so poor that he had no chance to go to school except a few months as a small child. And yet so informing is the hustling life of every homogeneous community. so enlightening is contact with men of different races with divergent points of view. so stimulating to the mind is the busy mart where races mingle. that this man has attained an address and capacity. an ability to think. and a facility of expression equaled by very few men upon this floor. When I think of men like Loftus and Sundberg.
