President Taft Won his election by

Not satisfied with being surrounded
by corporation lawyers in his Cabinet.
President Taft gave himself over to
the guidance Of Senator Aldrich and
Speaker Cannon, heads of the reac-
tiOnary function. which had fought him
to a finish for the nomination. In
der this domination he allowed himself
to be forced into signing the most
monstrous tariff bill that ever was put
upon the state books.
In the short session. the Democrats
and insurgent Republicans, under the
leadership of my father, worked some
remarkable reformation in the rules
of the House, and improved the Wick

Republican tariff baron will stand up

all our graft The people are awake
