| Hits Back at Beveridge.
IL understand that In a speech made
last Saturday night said Gov. Wilson,
IA very much esteemed friend Of mine.
Senator Beveridge. said that he enter
| tanned very serious fear about me,
namely. that IL I were elected President
l would be controlled by the bosses.
II never suspected before that Senator
Beveridge was a humorist, because II he
| didn't know that that was joke, he
ought to have known that 1t was a joke
When did he ever hear that j had
changed all my political habits?

is going to be controlled by the bosses or

and that laws they don't want are kept

under the regulation Of law; that is to
say, making it a legalized institution OF
the country. And when the men who
have created monopoly are accepted
partners of the government do you
suppose they are going to dispense
with the men who are their necessary
agents, namely. the bosses who deter-
mine who are to occupy office and what
the legislation is to be?"
Creators Of Monopoly.
..who created monopoly" interrupted
a man in the crowd, and he repeated
his question several times.
'The men who created monopoly. my
friend, to answer your question" con.
tinued the governor. "are the men who
have taken advantage Of the protective
tariff to get together to make great
combinations of industry, to shut out
competition and to make sure that
the prices are in their own control.
And every republican leader in our
