( administration as a whole,
| He confined himself to the work
which Mr. Taft has done FOR the es-
tabllshncnt of the principle OF regu-
lating the tariff through commission
and to the presidents success in
I conducting negotiations with foreign
powers for the application or the new
tariff law.
Colonel Roosevelt also outlined
clearly his position IN regard to the

Mr.. Roosevelt made two speeches
on the tariff today, The first one de-
livered at Sioux City, IoWa, contained
his reference to the TAFT udministra-
ton. In the second speech made here
late today, he amplified his views on
the tariff declaring that although the
Payne Aldrich law had given rise 10
grave dissatisfaction, the fault lay
with the system under which the tar
ift laws are made. rather than with
the men who make them.

DolliVer and Representatives Hubbard
of Iowa and Martin OF South Dakota

first statement concerning the Taft
