In closing his address. Mr.. Town
send endeavored to point out some
of the causes that had rendered Mr..
Taft so weak with certain class of
his party. The fact that Mr. Taft
was not an advertiser, that large sums
of money had been used TO stir up
feeling against him and that aboce all
the president was very poor politi-
clan and a good statesman. MIR
Townsend pointed out the hostility of
the press and. the magazines on the
question of raising the rates on per
iodicals and newspapers and accused
them of misrepresentation i'm their eff.
forts to beat this measure.
Mr.. Townsend also replied to an
anonymous attack on Mr.. Young, CON
iained on an unsigned handful, which
declared that Mr.. Young was not
friend Of the copper country Jews as
he had not voted i'm favor OF abrogat-
ing the treaty of 1892 with Russia.
This resolution that Mr. Young voted
against was merely a resolution in

break off the treaty relations with
Russia instead of doing il i'm the legal
way that Mr.. Taft was already doing
The Sulzer resolution would have been
an insult to Russia If it had passed,
Mr.. Townsend declared
The Chicago convention was also
mentioned and a defense of il made i'm
