Milwaukee United States Sem
ator Jonathan P. Dolliver, of Iowa,
made the first of series of speeches
in Wisconsin in the interest OF Senator
Robert M. La Toilette at the Hippo
drome in Milwaukee.
The Iowa senator said that the first
among Republican political leaders to
comprehend the character OF the II
responsible conflict within the party
between public interests and the pres
ent day organizations OF private busl-
ness, was Robert Nj. La Toilette, Of
Wisconsin.
1T is proposed now to put an end
to his career-tO cancel his commits
son--to make an example OF him.,
said Senator Doiliver, so that the
young men of the United States in the
future may perceive how much more
comfortable it is--how much safer
how much more profitable to serve the
impudent financial interests which are
trying to capture the >strongholds OF
the government, than it is to care for
that scattered and unorganized constt-
tuency-the people of the United
States.
1T may be that he can afford to go
back to the quiet and repose Of private
life, but if the state of Wisconsin,
yielding to the corrupt influences at
this moment flowing in upon her from
all directions-shall go back to the old
form of government by political boss
es, owing their allegiance to foreign
corporations, it would be calamity
almost inconceivable in it's disaster to
you and your children"
He Quotes st. Paul.
Speaking of stand patters," Sem
ator Dolliver said there were two
schools, the Aldrich school, which says
hold fast all | give you," and the
school of the apostle, who in a single
sentence pointed out plain road we'll
suited to the progress of society
prove all things and hold fast to
that which is good"
1T is an encouraging thing" he said,
that while the Aldrich school has
been closed, not for repairs, but per-
manently-the American people by the
million are studying the precept laid
down by the apostle, with results SO
far reaching in their influence as to
amount to a political revolution. The
course Of study is short one in this
school, which now numbers among it's
students a most distinguished pupil
who already holds the diploma of the
other school - the president of the
United States"
In conclusion he said the Republican
! party did not need bosses to tell it
what to do, but rather leaders to
pursue path of wisdom and guides
to point out the pitfalls that lie on
every side.
La Crosse, Aug. Ex-senator Cum.
Minis, of Iowa, invaded Wisconsin de-
lvering the first of series of three
speeches In this state.
He devoted the larger part of two
hours to discussing the tariff bill
Some men have said we passed a
good law" he asserted. Il don't think
so, although it is better law than
the Democrats could have passed.
Leaders of the senate and house de-
liberately repudiated the Republican
party platform and revised the tariff
in the interests of the manufa cturers
and big corporations and not in the
interests Of the great American pub
lie.
Il refuse to follow the leadership
of Cannon, Dalzell, Aldrich, Lodge and
others, l don't look at them as sitting
on a great white throne representing
4 the Republican party.
whenever the American people
have an opportunity to pass judgment
upon that tariff bill, they will consign
the men who made it to eternal in
fanny"
The speaker promised that the tariff
would be revised again soon by pro-
gressive Republican congress. He
outlined his plan for revision of one
schedule at time and strongly favor
ed an Independent tariff commission
with power to publish information pro
cured broadcast over the country.
