PUEBLO, Colo, October THAT the
United States Steel Corporation lis be-
hind the third party program in regard to
regulation of the trusts was the charge
made by Gov. Woodrow Wilson in
speech here today. Corroborative evil
dence of that assertion, the governor
said. was coming to him every day.
1T is a very interesting circumstance"
said Gov. Wilson, that the United States
Steel Corporation is behind the third
party program as regards the regulation
of the trusts. Now 1 don't want to say
that to prejudice you because l am not
here to indict anybody
Things They Created.
II am perfectly ready to admit that
the officers of the steel corporation
think that is the best thing for the
United States. My point is that these
gentlemen have grown up in the at
mosphere of the things that they them
selves have created and which the law
of the United States has so far at
tempted to destroy. And they now
want government which will per-
petuate what they have created"
The governor said he had been ask
ed as he got further west to put
punch in his speeches and hit the
other fellow" He declared that he
was not interested in persons but in
issues.
What difference does Mr.. Tafts record
| make to me? said the governor. What
difference does Mr.. Roosevelt's career
make to me? What difference do my own
attanments make in the face of the tre-
mendous issues? I tell you l can't af-
ford to think of Mr.. Taft and Mr. Roose-
welt in thinking of the fortunes of the
people of the United States
Not the Only Progress1ves.
The governor attacked the platforms of
the other parties and digressed once to
say:
Il call it the third party because 1 will
not concede to it the exclusive title pro-
gressive.
Gov. Wilson devoted a considerable por-
ton of his speech to labor questions. Be-
fore beginning to speak, he gave out for
publication the following letter, which he
said had been forwarded to him from
democratic national headquarters as hav
ing been circulated by Charles D. Hilles,
republican national chairman, among en-
ployerS of labor throughout the country:
IF the November election results in the
choice of a democratic Congress and dem
ocratlc President new tariff bills Will be
enacted at once. In other words. destruc-
President Taft vetoed at the last session,
will become laws.
Workingmen Must Choose.
only one thing can prevent this, and
that is a protest vote On the part of
the American workingmen. They must
choose between a high standard of living
and that Of the underpaid European
workingmen. Do your employees under
stand that this defines the exact diff
ference between the republican and the
democratic parties, not only as far as
your produce is concerned, but as per-
tanning to all other products of Ameri-
can labor?
IF you will kindly send us a list of
your employees who are voters, with post
office addresses each one will be asked
and the repub@ass> candidate for Congress
CHARLES D. HILLEs,
Chairman"
Gov Wilson said that beyond desiring
to make the letter public he wished to
make no comment on 1t.
