FOOLISH TALK BY Mr.. CHAMP CLARK

Champ Clark Democratic floor leader in the lower house
Of congress- says that the Republican party will be punished
by the people OF the country for failing to revise the tai
downward
What nonscnse
What blame can CLARK lay upon the Republican party that
will not fall equally upon his own
When the steel needed in the senate there we're
fewer Democrats in the antitrust minority than there were Re
pubeans There safe majority OF senators Of both parties
ready to serve the russo wherefore shall the wrath OF the
nation fall upon the C. O Pr
In the house there always enough Democrats to vote
with the Interests to nul the efforts Of oeacd nsugent
Republicans,
Out Of all comes one great truth Both parties are
aversed by plain line On side the servants OF the
people ON the other the servants Of privilege
When the people decide to punish they will be blind they
try punish parties they will be wise Il they punish ndvd
uais
The party cloak longer the real influences
which today control congress,
For Champ Clark anybody else to Try to raise party
cry at this time is insult to ordinary intelligence.
II the party is big enough to compel its representatives
obey platform promises then party must be ignored and
and representatives must be dealt with each his own
record No party cry suffice to shield.
