campaign on that issue and an every Republican Republican lican ian member was elected with that In vien vIp Even Everyone one of or these Republicans without an exception will I believe strive to the

Inthe the house sometimes under one party sometimes under the other 1 hap e never seen the responsible party parry 1 against what hat It thought to to the sentiment of oC the people Mis Mistakes liS takes ha la A onO been made mad as a In the case ae of oC the Wilson bill enacted by I the tile Democratic congress but I believe that the representatives In the house hou earnestly rnest tried to do what the people wanted They were misled by b the hasty judgment ent passed pasS il on the McKInley bill billin billin in and which would not In my opinion have happened had the Republicans Republicans Republicans had more time to explain the bill billon billon on the stump The Republicans made no mistake when they enacted the Dingley law Jaw as the long JonI life as the lives of or tariff lawn Jaw goo soo of that law shows thos and I believe they will well make no mistake In the bill which they the will enact next summer with the concurrence of the senate and the I president Willi Do Their Best There is I one thing of ot which you OU I may nay bo be sure The representatives will willi i do their very Velb Lest best to perform what the people want dune for they the must go before the people in 1910 and account foi for their acts The senator accounts account for himself once In six years the president once nee n e In four but the representatives ac account count once in two years ear The speaker of oC the house has a double accounting to t his constituents In his own district and to his associates in the house who elect him Iso No o representative and an es especially espe especially pe the speaker will fail tall to do everything ee within his hi power to carry carryout carryout carryout out the well considered constitutionally expressed wish of ot the majority of ot the people This is why I believe we shall shan get the sort of tariff revision the people voted for tor I do not pretend to prophesy or dictate It is 18 and should be beyond any an mans power to dictate to the house of ot representatives s 1 I merely speak from Irom long JonS experience p e and the teaching of what I T believe bellee to t be reason and common sense II |
