Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... XXXIV. Looking Ahead 1 have had a long experience with the public life of the United States; I have been repeatedly to Europe; I have studied the life of the East at first hand; I have read economics, history, sociology; I have been busily engaged in the life of the world for more than half of a century. If long experience and investigation, coupled with study and discussion, fit a man to understand what is going on about him, then I believe that I have the necessary qualifications for passing on the events that are now transpiring, and for predicting the trend of our economic and political life. There are certain things that I see very clearly; and certain tendencies that are working toward their logical goals just as inexorably as the sun passes across the heavens. These tendencies in our public life are similar to, though not identical with, similar forces that have operated in other societies during historic times; and they bear a very close resemblance to the forces that are now at work in all of the great capitalist countries of the world. In the fight over the annexation of Hawaii, I predicted that the road which was then being followed by the United States would lead speedily to empire. Well, the empire is already here--having arrived more speedily than I, in my wildest imaginings, ever dreamed that it would arrive. At the time of the struggle over the Hawaiian Treaty, few people believed that the United States could ever be an imperial nation. They were skeptical, or else they scoffed openly. Even the representatives of the great interests had little idea of what was happening. They knew that they were serving the men who had retained them, but with the exception of a very few among them they saw no farther than the immediate...

Excerpt from Triumphant Plutocracy: The Story of American Public Life From 1870 to 1920 The American people should know the truth about American public life. They have been lied to so much and hoodwinked so often that it would seem only fair for them to have at least one straight-from-the shoulder statement concerning this government of the people, by the people and for the people, about whose inner workings the people know almost nothing.

Richard Pettigrew was a United States Senator during the Gilded Age; a time when the captains of industry gained unprecedented power. His recollections of public service span decades. Running on an anti-corruption platform and representing South Dakota, Pettigrew was appalled as the wealthy owners of the trusts exerted unhealthy influence on the burgeoning economy of the USA. With controlling interests in land, rail, steel, oil, commodities and labor, the trust owners drove out fair competition and monopolized vast swathes of the U.S. economy. Antitrust laws supported by Pettigrew took decades to materialize; as these memoirs grimly rue, much damage was done in the meanwhile. To stall the legislation, the trust owners offered colossal campaign contributions and donations to politicians in their states. Under the guise of lobbying, many millions of dollars in bonds plus cash payments and job offers, were handed to Congressional representatives and their families. Yet Senators like Pettigrew struck back against the corruption; the Sherman antitrust laws, the creation of national parks and expansions of federal ownership of assets vital to the national interest put a brake on the Gilded Age. The final chapters of Pettigrew's memoirs reflect on world events, and the fate of nations which never muzzled their monopolies and distributed wealth across their economies.
