rAFT THRIFT

Milwaukee Sentinel. The Roosevelt
administration marked a period of Law
ish expenditure. The need for retreneh-
ment entailed on the succeeding admin
istration was driven home to the public
comprehension by the tangible fact of
an impending deficit
So the declared watchword of the
Taft administration was economy in
the conduct Of business of the govern
ment all along the line. Not a snowy
policy nor one calculated to dazzle the
crowd, but certainly the policy that is
the essence of good government.
The close of the fiscal year in the
postal department and the custom ser
vice affords illustrations of the accom-
plishment of the Taft policy of thrifty
and businesslike administration.
Postmaster General Hitchcoc ks re-
port shows saving effected for the
public through various economies in
running expenses of S11, 500, OOO Mr..
Hitchcock is very evidently consider
ably more than keen politician. In the
custom department some $4,000, 600
was added to the revenue by economi-
cal reorganization Of the service at the
port Of New York alone by the excel
lent work of Collector Loeb.
So in these two departments only we
have a total of something like $24, 900,
900 put in the public purse by the Taft
regime of businesshke methods. That
is solid and substantial achievement,
(only an item, of course, in an aggre-
gate of economical administration
lacking the show and eelat of Mr..
Roosevelt's more theatrical coup, but
going to the root of the public interest
nevertheless

brief statement of my position on some
of the more important public questions

Hon. Robert NJ. La Toilette TO the United States
Senate absolutely necessary TO progressive poll
tics in state and nation. His championship Of the
cause of all the people both rs governor of this
state and as United States Senator. has
thoroughly demonstrated his undoubted capacity
for leadership in the pending struggle for real re
preventative government and honesty in public
service.
am further in favor of the ratification Of the
amendment TO the constitution of the United
States providing for an income tax.
favor the election Of United States Senators
by direct vote of the people. and. If elected. shall
eXertrn best efforts to secure favorable action
by our legislature to bring this matter before
congress.
The Improvement of public highways under the
supervision * the etate, with such JudiciOus dis
trlbution Of state appropriations for that pur-
pose should receive general support Of all the
people.
The agitation for the representation Of our natural
resources such IS water power. forests and min
erals should not be lost sight Of at the hands Of the
peoples servants. and this is especially true as to
members Of the legislature in this state
favor the adoption of county option law,
with the proyiso that. before taking effect. such
law shall be submitted to vote of the people Of
the state. Such referendum seems to me en-
trey proper. when it concerns a question upon
which the people are so sharply divided as in this
matter

people of the county candid and fair
statement of my views. Other ques-
tions of great Importance will, no
doubt, come up before the legislature,
