near-Democrat, be u real one. Come
over with me where you belong and
you can do a real service. Patty
names mean little today to the aver
age man who thinks seriously. Party
alignments are no longer rigid. This
is a time when the best men in all
partiea should stand slwouldr to
sin. older in a demand for legislation
that shall be for the people, not for
the -interests.' It was not a party
victory in the Fourteenth .Massachu
setts. It was a protest by men of nil
shades of political opinion against an
economic uolicv which has made and
is still making it more difficult for the
average man to stretch his income to
meet his absolutely necessary living
expenses. Applause. 1
"Lifelong Republicans sat on the
J platform side by side with lifelong
Democrats "licit 1 discussed the tariff
issue and t..e applause was as nran
from the one as from the other. All
feel that soothing words are meaning
less. They resent being told that the
tariff has nothing to do with high
prices when facts do not hear out
such assertions. Thoy askeil for re
lief and heavier buruVns were impos
ed cm them and tho.v were told to
bear them because this was an ideal
tariff and must not be disturbed.
This is not a revolt. It is a revo
lution. It is a demand for a lighten
ing of the burden of taxation on the
necessaries of life. In my district the
result was not a case of sporadic in
siirgeticy. It was indicative of gen
eral sentiment. Massachusetts repu

which th.-y characterized as an In
fant'. us betrayal by the Republican
leaders at Washington of the solemn
ledges made the year before. They
had demanded reciprocity mid they
had received retaliation. They saw
bo ri-rhts .-I the great masses of the
t.ecrde surrendered to the selfish de
mands of ;i few. They saw that the
'trtereats' were all powerful in shap
ing legislation favorable to themselves
and regardless of the unnecessary tax
ation Imposed on the people. The
rising prices tilled th-ra with dismay,
and with stationary incomes they
lookert to the future with anxi ty and
Gloomy misgivings.
"S -nator Lodge as chairman of the
committee to Investigate the cause of
ihrse high prices came Into the dis
trict to stump In defence of the Aid
rich act. He declared without the
lightest equivocation that the tariff
had nothing to do with high prices.
Th" m n of the district knew that
Senator Lodge spoke with the author
ity or the administration behind him.
that what he said would rub legisla
tion nt Washington unless a protest
was made that would so startle these
leaders that they would wake up to
actual conditions, conditions that are
not merely local in the Fourteenth
district of Massachusetts, but are
enually potent ull over the 1'nlted
States.
"For eight years I fought for tariff
reform and reciprocity within the
ranks of the Republican party, but
when In the fnce of the solemn
pb.lges made by Mr. Taft and the
e'her leaders the Payne-Aid rich act
wns passed I saw that it was useless
to continue 'insuring' when Insur
gency had failed to brine relief. It
was only by joining the opposition
party that I was able to accomplish
anything. And by Joining that party
I won a victory that has warned or
should warn the Republican leaders
of what Is to come.
"And. my Insurgent friends, you
have all got to do as 1 did If you want
to accomplish the results you desire.
You have gut to step aside and Join
the opposition party and force legis
lation along lines that will bring re
lief. You have lieen Insurgents long
enough, and what practical results
have you secured'.'
"Senator Lodge read me nut of the
Republican party six years ago. hut I
till clung to It. for I loved It. until
my self-respect and my to'li-ni.iii
forced me Into the party of the oppo
sition. I went out of the party last
fall, and In a .10 days campaign cut
down a tremendous majority tn one
leas ttuitl nothing. Senator Lodge
Mid 1 couldn't make the tariff an la
n.'. but before the campaign ended
he was defending, and prclslng the
Aldrieh act wherever and whenever
he spoke.
