He promulgated views that . were execrated by his political op ponents and repudiated by a. large - wing of his political friends. He de- . fended these views at the cost of per- onal popularity. . Refusing to be an - opportunist, rejecting compromise : and adhering firmly and forever to the faith In him, he so Impressed his personal beliefs upon his country men that the president of an oppos ing political party adopted those ( views as the policies of his admin istration. The acceptance by this president ot the personal views of a private citizen, views that a few ' years before he had denounced, con stitutes a vindication of the states .manshlp of private citizenship never ! before eeen in political annals. In the popularity that came to that president' lp consequence of his ad vocacy of Mr. Bryan s views, was . given to the great Commoner another indorsement that made him the most notable private citizen in the world. Other men have achieved In con rtructlve statesmanship, bnt lt has always been when clothed In the habiliments of official power. Wash ington, commanded the armies and was the nations executive.

Y., a manu facturing town, Mr. Taft said It was dependent upon the protective system. That ia to say, men engaged In certain kinds of Industry are "dependent" upon leg islation that favors and benefits them, at the expense of others. Bu what about all these others all con sumers? Why should the law con fer especial benefits upon manufac turers, rather than upon farmers, mechanics or any other class or group of people? The excuse is that wea-of work ingmen au tnus kept up - This is a dishoneetand false pretense. An average tariff of 10 or 12 per cent would do that, as has often been shown, but besides that the pro tected .manufacturers do not divide their profits with their employes. They buy their labor as cheaply as they can, exactly as they would If they were not protected at all. The average tariff is now over 52 per cent, and It enables large manu fact a re re and manipulators to com bine,-to drive out smaller com pet I tors, and to form monopolies and raise prices to consumers without raising wages at all. This Is Just what hag. been done 1c hundreds of casern. This. If not the object of rrotee- tlon ta the flrrt' place, has been Its object for the past 20 years and more. Its whole pnrpoae and .
