Excerpt from The Struggle for Self-Government: Being an Attempt to Trace American Political Corruption to Its Sources in Six States of the United States With a Dedication to the Czar Sire: Without permission, but with the best of private intentions, I, a sovereign American citizen, fearful for my crown as you are, Sire, for yours - I lay this book at the foot of your throne. It is a description of something you dread, popular government, and I wrote it for the encouragement of my own people, but they do not see much to encourage them in it. Maybe your Majesty will.

Having served it step by step, this leader of the United States Senate may truly be said to be a product, as he is now the supreme head, of the Rhode Island System. There were others concerned with these three men, but they, representing the business, the law, and...
