Candidate Roethe Speaks in Edgerton

Candidate Roethe Speaks in EdgertOn
Henry E. Roethe, editor of the Fen
nimore Times, who is pleased to call
himself the ''Cowhide Candidate for
Governor, addressed an audience of
900 or 700 people who gathered near
the bank corner Saturday night. Much
of his address was given to explaining
his legomobilo canvass over the state,
his cowhide boots and the accident that
happened to him at Morrissonville
few days ago when he gave up walk
ing and accepted ride with passing
farmer, whose horse ran away; the
evident purpose being to impress upon
his audience that he was one of the
plain people and the farmers candidate
for governor. Then he launched into
taxation matters and told US what
everybody knows, that taxes are too
high and why they are so; that there
were too many taxeaters that ought to
be dispensed with and his plan for
pruning down state expenses. AS an
advocate of economy he told how he
had tried to stem the tide of extrava-
gance while a member of the legisla-
ture and how little he succeeded while
the appropriations were passed for
everything they asked for. Now every
candidate for office was trying to get
onto the economy band wagon, but that
he was there first.
When he becomes governor he told
his audience how he would apply the
pruning knife and how many useless
Offices he would abolish. It seemed to
us as if Mr.. Roethe forgot some things
in failing to mention how the authority
of governor had in recent years been
taken away from him and vested in the
various state commissions, until he
could accomplish but few reforms with
out legislature who sympathized with
him, and it was just as necessary to
have an economy Legislature as it was
to have an economy governor.
The people who crowded about Mr..
Roethe at the close of his speech to
pledge their support and get cards
bearing his platform, indicated that
his talk had touched popular vein
among the listeners. One thing seems
certain which is that Mr.. Roethe is the
only man among the conspicuous can
didates for governor whose record in.
the legislature was consistent with his
present professions in favor of low
taxes and economy. Everywhere"
said he, ''the people are anxious to
hear me. They are prodigiously stirred
up over taxes and they seem to under
stand that my legislative record is en-
tirely consistent with my present
pledges. They have learned some
how that I introduced bill after bill for
the abolition of various of our obnox-
ious and expensive commissions, only
to have them all killed, and they know,
if may Judge from what they tell me,
that / voted against untold millions of
appropriations. 1t is-easy for me I'M
der these circumstances to talk to
them. They are in sympathetic
mood"

New York, April 8.-Union labor

ler's millions at any time, Ernest
Bohm, secretary of the Central Fed

$34,0Q0,000 investments in Colorado

I'VE are going to maintain the

how many millions of dollars Mr..
Rockefeller and those associated with
him spend in trying to destroy them.
Money is a powerful weapon, but-it
