A SHACKLED CONGRESS Roosevelt and Cannon Agree ment to Prevent Reforms. JAEET WATEE ON BOTH SHOULDEES Cannon Notoriously Opposed to Re form, and Yet the President Wants No Change In Leadership No Relief From Trust Plundering If Repub lican Consjress la Elected. President Roosevelt tried to be adroit In giving bis advice to the voters of the United States when he wrote that letter to n congressman which was intended for the whole country to read. His admonition that "to change the leadership and organic tlon of the house of representatives at tills time means to bring confusion" shows that he believes with Speaker Cannon it Is necessary to stand pat on the tariff and that the labor organizations should be defeated In their effort to obtain legis lation that is necessary to protect them from trust and corporation coercing through B'overniuent by injunction. Yet he says, "We favor the organization of labor as we favor the organization of capital, but on condition that organized labor ami organized capital alike act In a spirit of Justice and fair dealing and due regard to both the letter and the spirit of the law." As Cannon Is notoriously oppased to all the demands of labor and will, if elected speaker of the next congress, pack the committee on labor against labor legislation, and yet President ltoosevelt declares that "to ch.tng' the leadership of the house" would lio a party catastrophe, so he mvst agree with Speaker Cannon In his autocratic declaration against reform. President ltoosevelt says, "We favor the organization of capital," and as the vast organization of capital Is known as trusts and as Caunou Is known ns a trust and corporation man and the president Is so anxious to see him re elected speaker what other conclusion can be drawn except that the president while making a great display of prose cuting trusts, though not one has been really punished, Is really favorable to such organizations of capital? The spec tacular hauling of a trust Into court and fining It effects nothing for the people who are plundered by trust high prices. In fact, the prosecuted trust will undoubtedly Increase Its prices and thus make the consumers of Its products pay the fine. The way to help the people is to take from the trusts and combines their special privi leges, such as the tariff protection that Mr. Hoosevelt agreed with Speaker Cannon that the next congress If It has a Republican majority Is to refuse to consider. As President Roosevelt declares that "to change the leadership and organi sation of the house would mean confu sion," be therefore would back up Speaker Cannon In packing the com mittees of the next congress to prevent consideration of tariff revision and of the anti-Injunction bill, which a for mer Republican congress passed unani mously, with Caunou In the speaker's chair, but which be now denounces as anarchistic. Mr. Roosevelt, like other politicians, will find It difficult to carry water on both shoulders. He cannot handle the Cannon pitch and not himself be de filed. A REPUBLICAN QUANDARY. Only One Course Left to the Honest Voter of Ohio. The Republican machine In Ohio by Indorsing President Hoosevelt and Sen ators Pick and Foraker coequally has produced a political dilemma. Tho Ohio Republican voter who believes that railroad rate regulation Is for his own and the public good must vote against his own ticket to indorse such sentlmentn. The voter who believes with Senator Foraker that the rail roads have vested Interests that should not be disturbed and with the same sentiments of the lukewarm Dick vote the Republican machine ticket, but at the same time such voter will virtual ly flout the president for being In such company. The L'lck mid Foraker political ma chines have Joined forces In their emergency and have forced this quan dary on the Ohio Republican voters by forcing their coequal Indorsement with the president. Ross Cox and all the corn' t eleiuents of the Republican party of Ohio are enthusiastic for "the ticket," which alone should be a signal of warn'ng to honest voters that they must defeat It If they do not want to perpetuate the Foraker-Wck com bine for ring rule. Roosevelt Domlnatea. That the Republican congressional machine Is entirly subservient and dominated by the president Is shown by Chairman Sherman saying he did not know exactly why he was called to Sagamore Hill. It was supposed, how ever, that President Roosevelt wanted to tell Chairman Sherman that the $600,000 remaining In the hands of the Republican national committee, which was mostly filched from the trust funds of the life Insurance companies, was to be placed at the disposal of the con gressional committee to save the party from defeat. Colorado's Opportunity. If the people of Colorado do not vin dicate Alvah Adams by electing him governor now lie bus again beau nom inated by the Democrats, they will show themselves only fit 'for ring rule and corrupt domination. The counting out of Mr. Adau:3 two year3 ego was one of the greatest outrages ever petr'tril In American politics. The Magazines.
