KETCHUM, of Marion tp. National Chairman Cortelyou who is also Mr. Roosevelt’s postmaster general, ‘ stands pat” on that insurance money. It was stolen from widows and orphans and put in the treasury of the Republican committee, but Chairman Cortelyou evidently does not intend to pay it back. Ab fast as they meet in state convention the Democrats of the country adopt a resolution endorsing Bryan for the presidential nomination in 1908. The more unanimous the Democrats become the worse the Republicans seem to feel about it, especially the Fairbanks guards of the household. The “protective” tariff—which the Republicans assert is a sacred “principle”—caused a deficit of $13,514,869 in the government’s accounts for the month of July. Bat this same “protective” tariff enabled the steel trust to make a net profit of more 140,000,000 for the three months ending June 30. The sacred “principle of protection,” as it is worked out in the Dingley law, gives the steel trust the privilege of levying its own tax on the American people. A tariff for revenue would prevent the

steel trust extortion and similar kinds of thievery, without injuring any legitimate business, and at the same time provide money for all necessary government expenses. “Standpatter” Shaw of lowa, will have hard work explaining to “Standpatter” Roosevelt how the hisses given the former in the lowa Republican state convention were complimentary to the administration of which he (Shaw) is a conspicuous part. A Democratic congress elected this fall will be a good start toward the election of a Democratic president in 1908.—The Commoner. Yes, and it will prevent the passage of the ship subsidy graft bill and do a lot of good for the people in other directions. If the Republican state committee carries out the scheme to preach “standpatism” in some districts and “tariff revision” in others, it will find it necessary, of course, to keep its oratorical goats separated from its no less oratorical sheep. But where will the 25,000 copies of the Hon. Charles Berry Landis’ eulogy of the trusts be put? ;
