Read this excerpt from one of Jones's speeches. Go down, men of to–day, who rob and exploit, go down into hell and look at the ruins you have put there, look at the jails. We pay $6,000,000 a year to chain men like demons in a bastille—and we call ourselves civilized. Six million dollars a year we pay for jails, and nothing for education.
The most appropriate explanation for the term men of to–day is people who

are uneducated
are in charge
work in the mines
put other people in prison
