Mr.. Wilson is simply trying to defeat
our part,'s candi ale for president. If
the republican party is bad, it became
50 under the leadership of Mr.. Roose
Welt so he must be II bad leader, and
the bull moose party can hope for no
better success under him.
The trust plank in the bull moose
platform was written by George w.
Perkins who, as a member of the firm
off. P. Morgan & Co., helped organize
the United States Steel Company, the
greatest trust on earth. Mr.. Perkins
is still one of the managing directors
in the Steel Trust; the Harvester Trust,
and several others, and is the campaign
manager of the bul! moose party.
Most people would not expect effective
results nom trust regulation which is
proposed by the trusts themselves, and
when they read the digest of the pro-
posed regulation they will not be dis
appointed in their expectations. The
regulation proposed by Mr.. Perkins
amounts to this:
The president shall appoint a com
mission, and as long as the trusts obey
the orders of this commission, they
shall be immune from prosecution in
the courts AS it is customary to re-
ward the campaign manager of the
successful party by appointment to Of

is elected he will appoint Mr.. Perkins

Perkins the trust officer.
AT the time the Reciprocity treaty
was being considered Mr.. Roosevelt
wrote to Mr.. Taft endorsing reciprocity
with Canada and urging its adoption.
After MIR. Roosevelt became a candi-

the western farmers were opposed to
reciprocity, he suddenly changed front

After the passage of the Payne-Ald-
rich bill, Mr.. Roosevelt in a speech at
Sioux Falls, said, in substance, hat it
, was the best tariff measure ever passed.
When he became a candidate against
Mr.. Taft, he accused Mr.. Taft of failing
to carry out the platform pledges of his
party and s%urrendering to the interests
r when he approved this tariff measure.
On the night of his election eight

cessors which limited the light of any
man to hold the office of president tc

again, but he now deliberately violates
this promise at the first opportunity,
that affords him the slightest excuse.
Before the last republican national
convention, he declared he would sup.

and that any reports to the contrary
, We're both foolish and malicious.
But he is now trying to defeat the
nominee of that convention and destroy
the party which honored and kept him
in office for more than thirty years.
