Carmack began by saying that in his
message the president had urged rat

reasons which appeal to diverse mo-

Continuing, Carmack declared that
Dolliver was right when he said his
party's failure to carry out reciprocity
was q blow to protectionism. "But Ii

the speaker. that a party dominated
by protected interests would make no

Carmack then turned his attention to
the president. Six months ago. he
said, a cry was raised FOR Roosevelt.

the republican party. Whatever that

republican party this morning. 1t did
not mean reciprocity and 1t did not
mean revision Carmack closed with
a plea for general tariff revision.
Carmack referred at length to the
reciprocity policy of Blaine and Nc
Kinley and quoted from a speech by
Dolliver, OF Iowa. in which the latter
had said that every line OF the wisdom
of Blaine had been eliminated from the
statutes. He agreed that this was
true, and IL SO who was responsible. If
the democratic party had taken 1t off,
the republican party had refused to
put 1t back.
