TARIFF WILL Be
THE MAIN ISSUE
Realizes He Must Defend Himself For
Vetoing Popular Revisions En-
acted BY Democrats.

Beverly, Mass, Aug $50 far as
President Taft himself is considered.
the tariff will be in the main issue of
the 1912 campaign. While the president
will speak on many subjects on his
western trip it is certain now that tariff
revision will receive most of his at
tention. Following his speech to the
Essex county republican club at Ham
ilton on Saturday, the president began
yesterday to prepare other speeches
on the tariff. He obtained copies of
his veto message on the wool, farm
ers' free list and cotton bills and at
once set to work upon addresses thaS
he expects to deliver later, backing up
those vetoes.
Mr. Taft is said to realize that he
must not merely defend himself for
having rejected these bills, but that
he must attack the democrats and
progressive" republicans who put
them through congress. The attack up
on the democrats, the president can
make almost anywhere.
1t is understood that the fight upon
the progressives will be confined large
ly to their own territory. The presi-
dent will carry the war west into the
enemies country"
The nature of attack is pretty clear
ly defined already-it will be in sub
stance that the 'progressives" who
voted for tariff should have been,
willing to wait for it's report that the
revision bills, the democrats and ''in-
surgents" drew at the special session
were ''ill-considered" and 'ebadly
drawn" and that great industries of
the country should not be put in jeo-i
pardy by such legislation when rel
vision, if recommended by the tariff
board might be expected anyway "a,
few months later.
1t is also probable that the president
will promise tariff reform so far as heI
can bring it about at the next session
of congress.
1t is also probable that the presN
dent will promise tariff reform so faN
as he can bring it about at the mex
session of congress.
1t is quite possible that the ''prJ
gressives" will be under fire of thI
president also on the subject of REQ
procity. The president has heard et
ough from western congressman
know that reciprocity is not popu1
in some states west of the Mississip
The progressiyes are supposed here
count upon the bad effect reciproc
VIII have with these western farme
The presidents attitude in regard i
reciprocity probably viii be mare ne
ly defensive than that in regard
tariff revision. for he has always c
tended that reciprocity, tried for
year, would prove advantageous
every one and hurtful to none.

Now comes the rumor that Musko-

The army of tick inspectors that are
in the field drawing salaries is a topic
that is exciting farmers and stockmen
throughout this part of the state. It is
the opinion of stockmen generally it
is a useless and expensive business
and that many owners of cattle have
been injured by its operation and few
If any benefited When a bunch of
steers are fattening and getting ready
for market to be forced to dip them
practically takesc them off the market
for the season. Many of the recently
dipped stock die after being subjected
to the dipping process. 1t is certainly
a very great hardship and an unwar-
ranted expense upon one of the great
industries of this section of the state

ers are also proceeding in an unlaw-
full manner in the appointment of in
spectors and the building of dipping
watts as majority of the voters of the
county have had no chance to express
their disapproval of the proceeding

Speaker Clark, in reeounting the
achievements of his party, said that it
had made "a record which has sur
prised our friends and dumbfounded
our enemies" That can hardly be
thought to be a very precise descrip-
ton Of the facts They have more
than surprised their friends Amazed
and delighted were more fitting words
with which TO describe the emotions OF
the democratic party's friends As to
its enemies having been dumbfounded
that was disproyed within the hour Of
Speaker Clark's declaration by the ae-
tion of the Hon Joseph G. Cannon in
emerging suddenly from the obscurity
of several months to belittle and ridi-
eule its work 1t is true that Mr. Can
non doesn't seem to have said any
thing that had either pith or point, and
his satirical effort appears to have
occasioned more roilement on the re-
publican than on the democratic side
Still it was an exaggeration to say that
the enemy had been dumbfounded.
for did not the Hon. Joseph G. Can.
non recover enough of his voice to
manifest the disappointment and dis
gust that have come to him from the
demonstration of the fact that the
house is able to govern itself without
the restraining hand of a despot? The
one thing that has probably sickened
the Hon. Joseph G. Cannon above all
others is the proof that gag and shackle
are not indispensable implements of
parliamentary procedure.
