TAFT WILL USE BIG STICK.
Will Ask for Enactment of Severa
Laws Next Winter.

| Washington, D. president Taf
| is expected to grow bold, though not
reckless, this winter in pressing some
of his own policies upon congress,
and he will beat the bush with his big
stick until he gets a fair proportion
of what he wants.
The experience which he had this
summer with the congressional lead
eds In matter of tariff revision has
convinced him that unless he shows
more terrible and bristling front
than his photograph give him cred
it for possessing, his recommenda-
tionis will prove ineffective. The pres
fdent has a long list of things he
wants written into the statute-books,
and he will encounter the strenuous
opposition of the organization that is
in control in both ends of the capitol.
For instance, the president wants
to strengthen the interstate COM
merce laws and make them more ef-
fective. He wants governmental con-
troll over the capitalization of the rail-
roads and corporations. He is deep
" interested In reform in the judi
ciary. He wants legislation to over
come the effect OF the decision OF the
Supreme Court knocking out the
Commodities clause" He wants a
real inquiry into the workings of the
tariff by the Tariff Commission he
has appointed.

cause 1T establishes what all Demo
Gratis so much desire, the wider dis
trlbut1on of the effect of the tariff
tax, which must inevitably reduce it's
benefit to some and It's burden to
others.
"Mr. Bryan declares that 1.-THE con-
sumer finds that other thinks being
equal the tax is cheaper when it is
levied upon the finished product on
ly.' That would undoubtedly be true
under a system of Republican taxa
tion, because they levy their COM
pensatory and differential duties for
the sole and only purpose of enabling
the manufacturer to take from the
consumer every species of the tax
which he has been compelled TO, pay;
but under Democratic system Of
Tariff for revenue only, the duty
would M xed at tie lowest rate
consistent with the revenue necessi-
ties Of the government, and, there
fore, It would be neither higher or
lower on the manufactured product
In consequence of the duty on the raw
material"
Senator Bailey discussed the bind
ing force of platforms and declared
himself strict party man, but de-
clared that his Texas constituents
had declared against free raw ma
terial and he had always publicly op-
posed it, hence he obeyed his constit-
uents and his own conscience and dis
regarded this plank of the national
platform.
