set forth.
"Morever, these Investigations
should form program, each success
Sive report being treated on its merits,
SO that each schedule can be revised
by itself, in accordance with the facts
by this commission of i'm
partial experts, and without any heed
being paid to any other consideration
than the justice of that particular case.
This will prevent the far-reaching dis
turbance of business, which necessari-
ly comes when all the schedules are
revised in lump.
Investigate Each Industry.
FINALLY, l feel that it should be the
duty of some government body at any
time to Investigate conditions in any
particular industry to see whether the
workingmen do actually get the bene-
fit that the tariff is primarily created
to give; that Is, to see that the labor
er gets his full share of the benefit of
the protective tariff, in accordance
with what firmly believe to be the
purpose of the American people.
"By enacting into law such policy
as that above outlined, we shall, OH
the one hand, do away with the dam
ger Of injury to American industries
which would follow if they were left
wholly without protection from for
eign competition, and, on the other
hand, we make it sure that the labor
ing man gets the benefit of the tariff
primarily enacted in his interest; do
away with the favoritism and log roll
ling, which, under present conditions,
seem inevitable in the process Of tar
iff making, and make it certain that
the amount Of protection granted
each case is the amount actually nec-
cessary to cover the difference in the
cost of production here and abroad,
and not 50 exclusive as to represent
improper favOrtism to any special
group of men.
IL think that the surest way to pre-
vent any agreement is to indulge in
useless recriminations about the past.
You remember, the present tariff was
made up by exactly the same methods
rs it's predecessor was made, and.that
predecessor Democratic predeces-
sor made exactly the methods that
have obtained in tariff making for All
indefinite number Of years"
Colonel Roosevelt then Endorsed the
plank in the Missouri Republican
platform which pledged the party to
workingman's compensation act.
with vigorous attack upon the
Democratic party and an appeal to
the people to support the Republican
party.
Attacks Democrats.
"Our opponents" said he, "stand
for nothing. In one state they claim
to represent radicalism SO extreme
and so foolish that if there were any
attempt to apply it IN practice it
would invoke the most absolute re-
action. In other states they stand
avowedly, or, il not avowedly,
they stand, in reality, in spite Of
hypocritical professions TO the con-
trary, for open reaction. They have
no coherent policy.
"a party that dominates Mr.. Bryan
as radical one year and Mr.. Parker
as an ultra conservative next time,
and then Mr.. Bryan again and then
waits to see it somebody won't carry
an election somewhere SO they CAL
nominate him again-that party has
forfeited the right to the respect Of
independent citizens who seriously
wish we'll to their native land.
Asks Support.
1--WE have a coherent policy. W.
have had difficulties. We are settling
them, not by II compromise OF prin
ciples but by coming together on a
platform which is one of high prin
ciple and also one of proved etlicien
cy. We ask You to support us il
