NOTICE TO PARTY REBELS
Republican Insurgents Must Fight for
Political Rights, says Congress
sional Campaign Committee.

Washington, D. C.-In a state
ment just issued by the Republican
congressional campaign committee
plain notice is served on the Republi-
can insurgents that they must fight
for their political lives. The statement
is inPepuously insidious because it
purports to be denial of widely
published report that the committee
is using money and literature to de-
feat the insurgents.
They say there will be no attempt
to influence the selection of Republi-
can candidates except "the committee
believes it to be within its province to
distribute literature upholding prin.
ciples and policies of the Republican
party, supporting the president and
his administration and giving facts
concerning completed and proposed
legislation. The committee believes
it to be within it's province to criti-
else and condemn those who oppose
the administration and the acts of the
party and those who aid and give COM
fort to such opponents"
Acting under this qualification the
congressional committee will send
broadcast through the middle west, es-
pecially in Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa and Kansas, the hotbed of insur-
gency, the tariff speeches of President
Taft and Speaker Cannon. If the in
surgent senators of these states and
the insurgent members Of the house
do not like this work by the commit
tee they may make the most of it.
The statement defends the new tar
iff law and says that facts in connec-
tion with its operation and it's revenue
producing qualities refute the claim
of insurgents that it is not success.
