SENATOR FORAKER

Senator Foraker was greeted BY q
large crowd at the Georgetown, OHIO,
Chsutsuqua yesterday. His address was
devoted largely to answering Secretary
Taft's speech at Columbus Monday night.
The Senator said that TAFT is losing
ground in Ohio, but If he is nominated
for the presidency all republicans will
support him. Speaking Of the tariff,
Foraker said that II Taft Is correct in
saying that there are evils in The tariff,
they ought to be remedied at once. He
declared that the Secretary is wrong in
saying that any great body of republi-
cans desire the tariff revised now, or
eighteen months hence. He declared
that the railroad rate bill instead OF
strengthening the Elkius bill weakened
it. Among other things be said:
Consult the people about tariff re-
vision in the next presidential campaign.
Chow about the 10000, 900 black
people in America who never drew a
disloyal breath, who are openly and
defsntly being denied their constitution
al right of citizenship?
"What are the views OF an aspirant to
the. presidency about the new re-
belion that has broken out in some
of the southern States, notably North
Caroline and Alabama, in the form OF
open defiance of the authority of the
United States courts?
Gin more than 100 prosecutions the
Ekins law, as originally enacted, has
been found a quick, decisive, efficient
and inexpensive remedy. No amend
ment Of the Elkins law by the provisions
of the Hepburn rate law has been in
vnked In any of fhesa nfnceedings.V

The best check upon the imposition
of exorbitant railroad freight rates is to
be found in the enlargement Of facilities
for water transportation. The most inn
mediate means of curbing offensive in
dustrial monopolies in the United States
and Of cheapening the cost Of living is
to reduce the tariff rates upon all com.
moa,its where the cost of production in
this country is as low as the cost of pro-
Guc.ion in foreign markets. An ounce
