TAFT ARRAIGNED
BY A. J. BEVERlDGE
Former Senator From Indiana Declared
That the Country Needs Very
Strong Man And He Doesn't
Think That Taft Is.

Chicago March 20.--At the auditorium
last night. former Senator A. j. Bever-
idge of Indiana, declared that the most
pressing need of the country is a strong
man at its head, man so strong that
he could control the great corporations
and their makers. He said the Sherman
law had failed in its purpose because it
was at war with natural law and that
prosecutions under the present admin
istration had been futile.
The speaker also arraigned the leader
ship of President Taft, saying in part;
"What the people need at the head
of their government is a strong man
the very strongest man they can find.
Great business concerns have the strong
est men they can find to care for their
interests. Why should not the people
have the strongest man they can find
to care for their interestsg This is a
big country and it needs big business
to serve it, but it ought not let big
business rule it.
sit is the nature of power to want
ever more power. That is why strong
men in business, if unrestrained, hon
estly come to think that they are above
need at the head Of our government
man 50 strong that he can make these
other strong men understand that they
are not above but under the govern
ment. The only man who ever has done
that since modern business began to alb
sorb the strongest minds and most dar-
ing hearts Of the nation is Theodore
Roosevelt
"He made the strongest men in Amer
lean business, and that means the strong
est men in all the world, understand
that greater than their mighty power
is the peoples power He taught them
that the laws OF the republic are for
the great as we'll as the lowly; for the
strong as well as the weak; and that
over all alike. whether for punishment
OF the criminal or protection OF the in
nocent, is the sword of the nations jug
tiee. He brought them to their knees
before the government which, until then,
they had ignored or used as their in
strument"

The following paragraph from the
BOSTON Herald rather explains why Bos-
ton "thawed out" so on Monday:
"The great reception accorded to Presi-
dent Taft was not prompted merely by
respect for his high Office, 1t was It
spontaneous tribute to his manly char
acter and an enthusiastic Endorsement OF
his attitude toward great public issues
which transcend partisan lines and bear
directly upon the very framework OF
our government"
There is much the same feeling among
people of other places and other par
ties, let it be said. Confidence in Taft
is not confined merely to the Republican
party.

go about the matter carefully with a
view to doing the thing right and not
have any serious blunders to look back
upon with regret There is no doubt
OF the need OF such an institution, and
there can be little doubt but that the
