"I tell them that you are about the last man in the world to permit mob rule." "Precisely," said Scarborough. "I purpose to continue to do what I can to break up the mob that is being led on by demagogues disguised as captains of industry and advance agents of prosperity led on to pillage the resources of the country, its riches and its character."

On the first ballot the organization'll vote solid for Graney, and my fellows'll vote for John Frankfort. On the second ballot half my Frankfort crowd'll switch over to Graney. On the third I'll put the rest of 'em over, and that'll be enough to elect probably the Scarborough crowd'll see it's no use and let us make it unanimous. The losers are always hot for harmony."
