Washington, Jan, 19.—The
following statement from Sena-

sion as compared with Minority
Leader Champ Clark’s views will
be published here and elsewhere
this morning:
/ "It is impossible for me to
understand how any man who
knows anything about the tariff
which might be pressed at this
session of Congress, if that
session did not end by law on
March 4, is the postoffce bill for
for a trial of parcels post service
on certain rural routes. This
measure has. been reported
favorably from the Senate Com-
mittee on Postoffice and Post
Roads and was prepared by
Postmaster General Hitchock.
Under its provisions the Post-
master General might authorize
postmasters and 'carriers on

beguilded something tempts
them, and the troubles of the
world do not come from any
scheming powerful class that
stands apart from the people.
The cleansing process which is
due and is going on, and which
was greatly needed, must include
all classes. The corporations
need it, and so do the labor
unions. The . churches must
take their share of it, and so
also must socialism, both Chris-
tian and the unchristian. The
talk about the poople and most
set of men who are not of the
people but who 'are depriving
the people of that which belongs
to them, is irrational and not
humanitarian. Every one of us
is of the people. Every man,
woman and child in the world,
rich or poor, wise or simple, good
or bad is one of the people.
What touches the people touches
us. What the people hope for
we hope for. What is good for
people is good for us, and e
have no duty, privilege, or oppor-
tunity,that can separate us finally
from the fortunes of the people
who are our fathers and mothers;
our brothers and sisters, our
children, lovers and friends and
our enemies and oppressors also.
We, the people, have common
duties we cannot avoid, common
tasks which we cannot escape,
and common destines which we
must all share together. —Ex -
