What do you think, Mr.. President
Of the proposal Of the third term par
~ to control the trusts through Fed
eral incorporation and regulation
at would create the most mon
strous monopoly OF power IN the his
tory OF the WorldzR power as much I
greater, as much more autoersttc, than !
that of Caesar or a Napoleon, as the |
business interests Of the twentieth cen |

The Payne law has had no more 20
do with advancing the cost Of living |
than the latest Atlantic cable tariff [
On the contrary, it has enabled the
American worker to meet the cost Of /
living and maintain his family in COM !

prosperity has been gradually restor- !
ed since the panic of 1907 Practical s
" every able-bodied man who is will I

the large industrial centres. as-Well as !
in other parts OF the country, the de |
mand for labor far exceeds the sup |
ply. City hotels have been thrOnged I
with buyers from all sections Of the /
Union, who report ready sales and /
eHEpey shelves. and are eager purchas- /

were landed at the request and with |
the consent Of the lawful Government

what is your attitude, Mr.. Presi- |
dent. on the woman suffrage ques- /
tion?"
Suffrage for women is an issue to !
be decided by the States, and there |
can be no doubt whatever that when |
ever and wherever a majority Of woE- /;
