Col. Roosevelt in the presence of
Senator Dolliver and Representative
Hubbard OF Iowa, today made his first
public utterance regarding the admin
istration of President Taft. He en-
dorsed the presidents suggestions for
q tariff commission and complimented
him upon his negotiations with foreign
countries to bring about tariff agree
ments.
1t was made known that this COM
mendatfon of the president was pur-
posely given within the insurgent ter
ritory and that both Senator Dolliver
and Representative Hubbard knew in
advance that COL. Roosevelt was to
say what he said and approved it. al
though they were not consulted by the
colonel about his reference to them
selves.
The colonel's speech was as fol-
lows:
II was particularly pleased with
what the president said in his last let
ter on the subject of the tariff COM
mission. A number of senators and
|congressmen have for some years
averred that this Is the proper method
of dealing with the tariff, and am
glad that the country seems now to
have definitely awakened to the idea
that a tariff commission offers the
only solution of the problem which Is
both rational and insures the bbt'
sence OF jobbery. call your atten-
tion to the fact that the amendment
proposing to provide for such commits
sion in the original bill when the tar
III bill was under consideration in the
senate, was introduced by your own
senator here present, Senator Dolliver.
ut was characteristic act of SER
vice to the people on the senator's
part and wish to take this oppor-
tunity Of saying that throughout my
term as president on every important
question it was my privilege to stand
shoulder to shoulder with Senator Dol
liver. Let me add. my friends. that
what l have said of Senator Dolli-
yer. can also say Of your congress-
man. Mr.. Hubbard.
"a word here for my friend, Con-
gressman Martin, although he is not
from Iowa, but from South Dakota.
He also was a man who absolutely
stood by me on every point throughout
my term and with whom ] was able
to work in hearty sympathy for every
progressive policy All three of these
men found after trying them out.
stood without hitching. Perhaps that
simile suits South Dakota better than
Iowa. where should say that they
never kicked over the pail
"There is another feature of the
tariff law which Is admirable and
points our course in the right direc-
ton, the maximum and minimum pro-
vision. And here again I wish to
point out that the value Of the provi-
sion has depended largely upon the
excellent work done by the admins
tration in its negotiations with foreign
powers for its sapplication. especially
the negotiations with the Dominion of
Canada, which were the most dificult
of all, and yet in my eyes the most
important because esteem 1t of vital
consequence that we should always be
on relations Of the highest friendship
and good will with our great and
growing neighbor in the north"
Mayor Smith was present to intro
duce the colonel to the people Of
Iowa. There was great demonstra-
tion as Col. Roosevelt proceeded with
his remarks. Col. Roosevelt read with
interest today the stsatement issued
yesterday by VIM. Barnes. Jr., Of Al
bany, criticissing him for his west
ern speeches which Barnes said
''have startled all thoughtful men and
impressed them with the danger which
lies in his political ascendency."
81 think there il something perfect
ly delicious" said the colonel. "in the
idea of Barnes flying to the defense Of
the supreme court and Righteousness"
