giles they able to extrtcate themselves. Sew

Mr.. Bryan attacked Mr.. Taft and his platform
generally. With respect to the revision Of the
tariff he inquired: why are they IN such hurry?
They have had chance all this time, and when
they promised immediate revision 1t meant they
knew the patience of the public strained to
the point of breaking, and they say, If you will
Just let in will Immediately do
what we ought to have done years ago."
He said there likelihood Of the Repub-
ncans reducing the tariff and injuring the trusts
which had fattened under it. The reason you
cannot reduce it, he asserted, lis that the Repub
Iican party gathers its campaign funds from these
men who purchased the right TO get the money
back from the pockets OF the people. The Repub-
Hcan leaders expect 10 get their money this year
like they secured it heretofore. but they are
not willing that the people should know by pubica-
ton before election where the money was coming
from
The Steel Trust to-day is supporting the Repub-
Iican party and the Republican committee dare not
say before election the amount OF money 1t will
collect the officials OF the Steel Trust TO help
it in its campaign" The Democratic party insisted
that the principle of the private monopoly was
wrong and instead Of creating trusts and then
spendng time trying TO catch them believed in
preventing their organization President Roosevelt
had not prosecuted the Steel Corporation and there
was no hope that Mr.. Taft would do so. 1t would
not destroy business make the trusts do business
honestly.
