THAT TARIFF BILL, AND The MEN WHO
OPPOSED IT.

We have nothing whatever to do
with the selection of the candidates
upon the Republican ticket, but as
matter of public concern, it is some
times very important to know how
our representatives voted upon mat
tiers which vitality affect the liter
ests of our State, and our people.
1t is well recognized fact that
the last tariff bill, which passed the
National Congress, IS the most iniqui-
tous measure ever placed upon the
statute books of our nation. 1t was
so repulsive to many ofthe great men
of Cur nation, public spirited, patriot
&c men, that they absolutely refused
to follow the leadership of Senator
Aldrich, who had charge of the bill
in the Senate, and voted against the
measure time and again. These in
dividuais are known as Insurgents"
because they would not vote for
what is now known as the Payne
Aldrich bill, the same bill which
President Taft characterized as the
best tariff bill ever enacted into
law.
There were 1919 roll calls in the
Senate which made the new tariff
law, and out of this number of roll
calls, LaFollette, Wisconsin, voted
against Aldrich LOG times, Bristow,
Kansas, Iol times, Clapp, Mimi, 81
times, Cummins, Iowa, SO times,
Deliver, Iowa, IS times, Nelson,
Mimi, SO times, Beyridge, Ind, IS
times, Brown, Neb., IS times, Burk-
ct, Neb., IS times, Crawford, South
Dakota, SO times, and 50 we might
continue with number of other dis
tinguished men; but we give this
limited number to show that some Of
the greatest men in the Republican
party to-day are opposed, yes, siren
uously and vigorously opposed to the
present tariff law. Who has not
heard of LaFollette, of Nelson, of
Cummins, of Bevridge, and of Doll
liver: All men, great men, leaders
in their respective states, and leaders
in their party No one questions
their patriotism, no one doubts their
honesty, and no one has heretofore
questioned their loyalty to their par
ty; but they couldn't stomach the
Payne-Aldrich bill, and they threw
the iniquitous features of it in the
faces of the advocates of the meas
ure. The bill was rotten, it was a
stencil in their nostrils, and like
honest men, they rose in their seats
and denounced it, and voted against
it. Senator Elkins voted against
Aldrich once, Senator Scott voted
against Aldrich twice. The vote of
the West Virginia members of Con-
gress in the House of Representa-
tives shows thew were for the bill,
that they were for Cannon and AID
rich.
We now rise to enquire whether
Scott is for the Payne-Aldrich bill,
and whether Hubbard is for the same;
we want to know whether Hughes is
for Cannon, and whether Lilly is for
him. We don't care who gets the
nomination, but we should like to
know where these gentlemen stand.
They may have seen the error of
their way, and would like the public
to know what they would now do if
they had it all to do over again, and
it seems that some explanation is due
from these distinguished men.
LOOK AT THIS!
