Crumpacker And The Tariff.
When the Pg-yne-Aldrieh bill was up for passage, the revision in the interest of the people depended upon the House, and giving the House members the chance to work their own will in the revision downward of the schedules.! But the’system had decreed that revision should be only as it willed. Through the Cannon organization (of which Crumpacker was a part) the system designed to prevent any revision that
The choice which the voters have to make is simply this: Shall they have a government free to serve them, free to serve ALL of them, or shall they continue to have a government which dispenses SPECIAL favors and which is always controlled by those to whom the SPECIAL favors are dispensed ?'* WOODROW WILSON 1 - -» £ JpROTECTCD Ww w- 'ft - ■ “THEY Are Good Enough For Me/’ (With Acknowledgments to Davenport) / ■ —From the New York World, Sept 15, 1912,
might be in the interest of the people. The gag rule was made use of to pass the bill, on motion for the previous question (in order to prevent discussion that might be embarrassing to the Cannon-Crumpack-er machine) and Crumpacker voted Yes. On the Dalzell gag rule resolution which confined the tariff revision by the House to just five commodities out of thousands of the commodities contained in the tariff schedules. Crumpacker voted for that gag rule. The passage of that j rule made it impossible to revise the tariff honestly, and Crumpacker so meant it when he voted yes. Any congressman could then make a pretense of being in favor of this or that schedule to order to come home and tell the !>eople he favored revision but had to accept what he could get. When he himself voted to apply the gag ride that made* it impossible to revise the tariff honestly. on the amendment to strike out the duty on lumber Urumpacker voted NO. On the motion to recommend the conference report on the tariff bill Crumpacker voted No. And on. the final i report of the bill Crumpacker voted Yes. ON EVERY TEST VOTE ON THE PAYNE-ALDRICH TARIFF BILL CRUMPACKER VOTED WITH THE CANNON MACHINE.

IS THAT THE RESULT OF ‘HIE WIDE EXPERIENCE” on account of which we are told he is to be re-elected?

NUGGETS FROM WOODROW WILSON’S SPEECHES.
The Republican part}’ doesn’t propose to change any of the essential condi tions which mark our present difficulties Mr. Roosevelt proposes in his platform not to, abolish monopoly, but to take it under the legal protection of the government and to regulate it, to take the very men into partnership who have been making it impossible to carry out these great programs by which all of us wish to help the people. We don’t want to disturb the industry of the country, but to destroy the control over the industry of other people which these men have established and whi-ij makes it impossible that we should give ourselves a free field of service Tariff schedules have been made for the purpose of keeping as large a number as possible of the rich and influential manufacturers of the country in a good humor with the Republican party which desired their constant financial help.

ROOSEVELT BAIT FOR SUFFRAGISTS
Third Term Candidate Was Consistently Their Enemy Till He Needed Their Votes. COULD HAVE CARRIED OHIO. But Big Bull Moose Took to the Vermont Woods—-Noted Woman Exposes His Change of Front. BY ID, HUSTED" HARPER. The Pro; «-.w e party had its first opportunity ; > sunn its loyalty to the woman suffrage p'.ank in its pint fox ;n when the vole was taken m Ohm <m a new coustituti'iii F<rry-t w<> amend meats were on ■!:? l.allm. ai:d :>!1 were adopted except the <>ae toi woman suffrage! Ohio is one of the “bam 1 , er” Progressive states, ::nd Mr. Roosevelt expects to secure its electoral vote. Tn order to do this a plurality o. the electors must be Progressives, and tiiey could therefore have easily ca.rimfl the suffrage amende ent if all the ot hers had voted against it. as the vote 0:2 the constitution was very light, on!;, a few hundred thousand out of more than a million’who were eligible Did he issue any orders to this effect? Did he say to his-followers: “Now. here is our first chance to show the women that we mean business. Of course if we win in November we will give the franchise to all in the United States, but just now we can make good by giving it to those in Ohio, so let every Progressive vote for the woman suffrage amendment?” Did he do this? On the contrary, he completely ignored the matter, although he passed through Ohio the very day of the election.
A few days before, at St. Johnsbury. Vt., Mr. Roosevelt had devoted a large part of his speech to showing how strongly he believed in the ballot for women and how anxious he was for them to get it. The question was not an issue there or likely to be. but it was a vital issue in Ohio, to be settled in four days, and yet,not by spoken or written word did he show to the people of Ohio that he knew of its existence.
Two days after the Progressive party in Ohio permitted the defeat of this amendment its state convention met. If any women were elected delegates the press dispatches failed to mention it, and in the platform a woman suffrage plank was conspicuous by its absence. •’The Progressive party pledges itself to the task of securing equal suffrage to men and women alike.” says its national platform, and Ohio has just given the -first example of the way it apparently means to keep that pledge. In Mr. Roosevelt’s second term the suffragists determined to make every possible effort to secure an indorsement from him. As Miss Susan B. Anthony's most eloquent letters to him received no answer, she went in person to see him in November, 1905. just four months before her death. With all her powers of persuasion she pleaded with him to recommend in his forthcoming message some recognition of woman’s claim to a voice In the government. Laying her hand on his arm, she looked up into his face and said, “I beg of you to be the emancipator of woman as Lincoln was the emancipator of the slave.” He was not resembling Lincoln so much in those days as he is at present, and he remained totally unmoved by her appeals. Scant Courtesy at White House.
Shortly before he left the White House several officers of the National Suffrage association, realizing his great influence on publicivopinion, made one last effort to have him speak a favorable word. He came into the outside lobby of the executive office, required them to state their business before the crowd waiting to see him and would hardly give them a chance to speak, but kept saying. “Go and get another state.” He. shrugged his shoulders and turned on his heel, and then they said, “If we will get up a petition of a million names will that influence you?” “No.” he replied, “not one particle.” That was in 1909. The next year t letter from him was read at an anti suffrage meeting in the Berkeley thea ter, New York, in which he said: “1 am very tepid on woman suffrage.” The cause of Roman's enfranchisement ■ has no more implacable enemy than the Outlook, and Mr. Roosevelt is on the editorial staff. Last February he had in that magazine a ten column article entitled “Woman's Rights.” but the only right considered was that of the suffrage. The article was such an excellent exposition of the attitude of women who do not wish to vote that the Anti-suffrage association ordered copies for distribution. In this article he said again, “In our western states where the suffrage has been granted to women I am unable to see that any great difference has been caused as compared with neighboring states.” ‘ And yet just four months after this publication, when Mr. Roosevelt had definitely decided to make the contest for the presidential nomination, all his scruples about forcing suffrage on a hostile and indifferent majority vanished in thin air because a million and a half already had votes and the colonel wanted them, and he knew they wouldn’t stand for any nonsense about a referendum.

STEELTRUST BACK OF T. R. TRUST PLAN
Charge Chal enged, Gov. Wilson Returns With Prompt and Convincing Answer.
COUNTRY WAITED FOR CLASH.
Wondered if It Was to Produce a Parallel of Parker Episode—More Proof if It Is Wanted. When the country read on the morning of Ort. s the charge of Woodrow Wilson before his audiences in Color ado that the steel trust is back of the Roosevelt program of trust regulation and in the same papers Colonel Roosevelt’s demand for proof of the assertion it sat up and took notice. Would this produce a parallel of the famous episode of the 1904 campaign, when the colonel called Judge Parker a liar for asserting (what has been so recently proved! that the corporations were contributing to the Roosevelt campaign ?
There was eager waiting for Governor Wilson’s answer. It came promptly the next day in his speech at Kansas City. Concisely, convincingly and dispassionately Governor Wilson met the Roosevelt challenge, and should the controversy be pressed further the Democratic candidate will give the bull moose all he wants, for the corroboration whereof he spoke is abundant. Wilson’s Charge. At Pueblo, the center of the western steel industry. Governor Wilson said: “Evidence of what 1 am about to say comes to me by way of corroboration every day in forms that I cannot question. It is a very interesting circum stance that the United States Steel corporation is behind the third party program with regard to the regulation of the trusts.
“Now, 1 do not say that to prejudice you. 1 am perfectly ready to admit that the officers of that corporation may think that the third party is the best thing for the United States. That is not my point My point is that these gentlemen have grown up in the atmos phere of the things they themselves have created and that the laws of the United States so far have attempted to destroy the things that they have created and that they now want a government which will perpetuate the things they have created. “You therefore have to choose noiv a government such as the Unjted States Steel corporation thinks the United States ought to have or a government such as we used to have before these gentlemen succeeded in setting up private monopoly.”'
Roosevelt’s Challenge. The same (light at Albany. N, Y„ Cdlbnel Roosevelt upon reading reports of Governor Wilson’s speech said: ’ As far as I know the statement has not the slightest foundation in fact. Mr. Wilson has no business to make such a statement unless he has the proof, and if he has any proof I de mand that he make it public immediately. If he has not let him retract his statement as the only manly and honorable thing to do.” Wilson’s “Retort Courteous.” The next night Governor Wilson made this reply before the great audience that greeted him in Kansas City: “I understand from the newspaper reports that Mr Roosevelt was dis tressed by my suggestion the other day
NOW FOR THE SIDE SHOW
that the United States >teei corporation was back, of his plan for controlling the trusts. He interpreted my remark to menu that they were supporting' him with their money 1 was not thinking about money “I do not know whether they are supporting him with their money or not. It does not make any difference. What I meant was that they are supporting him with their thought, and their thought is not our thought. 1 meant, and I say again, that the kind of control which he proposes is the kind of control that the United States Steel corporation wants “1 am perfectly willing to admit that they think it is the best for the country. My point is that this is a method conceived from the point of view of the very men who are to be controlled and that that is just the wrong point of view r from which to conceive it. “If Mr. Rooseveit is willing to have Mr. Perkins suggest how the corporations ought to be regulated why will he not be willing to take suggestions from the same quarters as to the details of the regulation? Mark you, ladies and gentlemen, I am not discussing individuals. I know Mr. George Perkins. I have no quarrel with anything except his judgment He does not look at these things in the waj men who do not wish to accustom their minds to monopoly look at them.”
There should be an immediate revision of the tariff downward. It should begin with the schedules most obviously used to kill competition and raise prices in the United States, and should be extended to every item which affords opportunity for monopoly and special advantage until special favors shall have been absolutely withdrawn and our laws of taxation transformed from a system of governmental patronage into a system of just and reasonable charges which shall fall where they will create the least burden.
