:.The following are extracts from
St-trne of the expressions of Judge
*Cox;
' ‘There should be a rerluction in
J stx.«*ai..4h<l wWU W giw<'i
°rment, unnecessary taxation is a
specie of robbery and retards the
return of prosperity. Some limi
tation should be imposed upon
Congress with respect to its pow
ers of taxation.
The Constitutoon and its limita
tions were made to be obeyed and
all laws enacted thereunder should
be enfoiced.
I believe that local self govern
ment is indispensible t-o liberty
and that the many people should be
trusted to control their own destiny
American ideals meet be main
tained and her houored institutions
preserved. In times past these
have been endangered by the un
settled immigration policy of the
country. The law just enacted is
an improvement upon till previous
l{tws, but selection of imignim?
should be made at point of em
barkation instead of at point, ot
entrance. Many hardships would
thereby be saved an unfortuuati
aid despairingsclass.
Tne present tariff law is thy
most iniquitous of the century
It is a deliberate perversion of thi
po.vers of government to the end
that it enriches the few and im
poverishes the many. I| has die.
organized all business in the agri
cultural sections, and through its
discriminations against the far
mer lias rendered bis condition
almost intolerable, the tariff on
peanuts being the only schedule
that benefits him. Quick relief
must bo afforded if a break down
iti vhe.’-jmeiness ..structure of tin
country is to be prevented. The
rehabilitation bl the farmer cons,
t Hates the groat reed of the hour.’
