LET THE RECORD SPEAK ON THE PARCEL POST law

Mr.. Lewis is now claiming credit for the
passage of the Parcel Post L;.... Is he entitled
to it?
On June s, 1911, Mr. Lewis introduced in
the House of Representatives a bill providing
for the condemnation and purchase of the fran
chiscs, ETC., of the Express Companies of the
United States, and the establishment of Postal
Express
In the same Congress on January 81, 1912
Mr.. Cooke of Ohio introduced a bill in the
House. with provisions very similar to those of
Mr.. Lewis bill
Also in the same Congress-, in the House
and Senate, IS separate bills were introduced
for the establishment of Parcel Post by other
members of the House and by Senator's Con-
gress therefore had before it for consideration
the two propositions, first that one involved in
the Lewis and Cooke bills for the Government
ownership of Express Companies, and the estab-
lishment of the Postal Express, and the other
question Of the establishment of a Parcel Post
as proposed by the other Is bills offered by as
many Congressman from different parts of the
country
After due consideration of all these meas
ures Congress rejected the Lewis and Cooke
bills and passed Parcel Post Law which was
drafted and introduced by Senator Bourne of
Oregon.
For the purpose of his campaign Mr. Lewis
is claiming the great credit for the passage of
the present Parcel Post Law, but on Feb g.
1912, before Mr. Lewis was nominated and be-
fore his campaign for reelection was opened he
made a speech in the House of Representatives
in which he stated that he was opposed to a
Parcel Post Law, and the Country Gentle
men, a farm journal published in Philadelphia
and which favored the Parcel Post Law, in its

IF EITHER Roosevelt or Taft is elect
ed to the Presidency next Tuesday you
will want Congressman in Washing
ton to support the doctrines of the Re-
publican party, to see that YOU get the
right kind of tariff legislation, and the
proper control of big business. Either
of those candidates stand right on the
things that will most affect you. What
you want is man to uphold your inter
ests in Congress and to support the pro-
tective policies. Mr.. Lewis is a free
trader and will not work for you in the
way you want work done. His oppon-
ent, Mr.. Wagaman, will, and should
have your vote.

issue of May Is, 1912 severely criticised the
attitude of a number of Congressman, including
Mr.. Lewis of Maryland, for their opposition to
a general Parcel Post
That there may be no question about the
real attitude Of Mr.. Lewis toward Parcel Post
Law, we here quote a colloquy that occurred
during speech made by Mr.. Lewis in Congress.
Feb. 5, 1912 printed in the Congressional
Record of the First Session of the Sixty Second
Congress, page 1915:
Mr.. Sherwood: DOES THE GENTLE
MAN (MEANING MIR. LEWIS) FAVOR AN
UNLIMITED PARCEL POST OR a PAR
Gel POST REGULATED AS TO DIS
TANCE?"
Mr.. Lewis: Il DO NOT FAVOR A PAR
GEL POST AT ALL. FLAVOR A SYSTEM
OF POSTAL EXPRESS SUCH AS is CON-
TEMPLATED IN THE GOEKE BILL"
The Cooke bill proposed the taking over of
the Express Companies by the United States
Government and have the Government run
them in connection with the Rural Delivery
The record is thus clear that Mr. Lewis, for
campaign purposes, is claiming credit for the
passage Of the present Parcel Post Law, when
as matter of fact, he opposed in Congress the
establishment of the Parcel Post
The proposition Of Mr.. Lewis bill involv-
ing the principle of Government ownership of
Express Companies and other public utilities
had the support Of but few members of both
parties. 1t was too socialistic in its tendencies
to receive the support of either the Democratic
or Republican party.
Mr.. Lewis must stand by his record if he de-
sires the confidence Of the people

He also voted to put farm machinery

a symbol of shame and ignominy, and
only those deformed or misslfapen

Atlanta, January 26.-Thomas e.

Mr.. Watson attacks Wilson as a

Mr.. Watson condemns him because
he had not the courage to condemn

Mr. Watson also criticises Woodrow

glorifled the North and East, doing
gross injustice to the South and West
Watson objects to him because he
