In short, there is a fixed purpose that hereafter all persons, natural and artificial, shall be entirely equal before the law. The paramount issue of the last campaign that gave the Democratic party supremacy in this State was the question now before this body — an issue absorbing all others and reaching into every interest in this State. There is no man, howsoever humble or poor in this world's goods, who can be free from concern upon this question of the ascendency of the railway companies. E...very man hitherto in this land has prided himself upon the posses- sion of personal independence, upon sovereignty over him- self, upon perfect liberty to strike out for himself a path- way to fortune, unhampered by any artificial restrictions in favor of his neighbor. No man ought to say, no man can truthfully and intelligently say — "It matters not to me whether these railroad people succeed or fail in their attempt to wrest the law and Government to their own uses. " It does matter to every individual — for all are alike concerned in the purity of the foundations of law and justice — all are alike deeply, immeasurably affected by the threatened dominancy of the corporations.
