visers on the subject? Why, during
the whole seven and half years o.
his occupancy Of the White House,
with congress Republican In both
branches, did he. withhold recommen.
dation for lower custom house taxes
The country expected action, and
he promised action. Upon taking Of.
fee Mr.. Roosevelt declared for the
Mckinley policies, and revision OF
the Dingley law was the last OF Mr..
McKinlcy's pronouncements. But
congress heard no word from Mr.
Roosevelt on the subject.
At one time he meditated q recon.
