the republican administration for its
attitude on the trust question and up
on the imperial tendencies of tbs Re

"He thawed that President McKin

was devoted almost exclusively to the
foreign of the administration
and to Its attitude on treats, though he
Jtook occasion to show up the folly of

other qo|Ktions.
"He shamed that cotton had sold fir
