Mr.. SHAW ASSAILS
CONGRESS EDWARDS
Former Secretary Blames
People for Weakness
SAYS EXECUTIVE MAKES LAWS
In Chautauqua Speech He Makes
Sensational Statements Predicting
Retirement OF Honest Lawmakers,
and Says Cannon Is Exceptional
in Not Being n Coward.

Chautauqua, n. Y, July 13.-'The peo-
pie have made towards of their Con-
gressmen." said Leslie n. Shaw. former
Secretary or the Treasury. this after
noon before large audience.
Never before has there been such an
exhibition OF cowardlce In the halls of
Congress. And every man who has dared
to follow his own convictions and vote
according to those convictions will be
retired by the people when his name
again comes before them for reelection 80
A few snappy sentences from Mr..
Shaw's speech are as follows:
IF Roosevelt. Taft. and Bryan were
60 die tomorrow the nominee OF one
party would be william Randolph Hearst
and the nominee Of the other party
would be Robert NJ. La Toilette. And
the people of the country would elect
William r. Hearst
Uncle Joe Cannon is not a coward-in
this respect. he is exceptional IN this
Congress.
Government Most Centralized.
There is one other thing I wish 70 call
your attention 10. This country has now
the most centralized government in the
world, not excepting Russia.
I'VE have got 10 the stage IN our evO-
luton where we expect the executive
department OF the government to make
the laws. usurplng the functions OF the
legislative department
The Constitution has now become a
book. laid away on the table. about which
gather now and then the directors OF
this government.
I'VE have been fortunate in our lead
ers. One day l said 10 President Roose-
welt: Suppose Cleveland had been Presi-
dent during Lincoln's term. what a ca
lamity would have then occurred? How
fortunate TO have had Lincoln to call TO
the chair at the time Of the nations great
est need? Suppose. again, that Cleveland
had been President during Mckinley s
term The nation would have been ruined.
Roosevelt came 70 me several days Ia
ter, put his hand on my shoulder, and
said with great seriousness: I have
thought over what you said. Shaw. Il is
true. very true. that we have been very
fortunate IN our leaders.
