Sunday, October 4, 198. The Republican administration touts tax cuts, railroad assessments rise, new tax rolls, liquor license increase, two cent fare law, uniform accounting, anti corruption measures, fee disclosures, and county treasury reforms. The piece claims these actions add value and integrity to state governance and invites voters to endorse the record.
Rev. R N Price argues Taft’s church affiliations and religious creed should not determine the election. He states he is not Republican or Unitarian and urges voters focus on party platforms and candidate character. He notes religious ties may influence electability but should not be the sole issue.
The author argues against tying political fitness to religious creed, defending Unitarianism as compatible with Christianity and urging broad, liberal interpretation of faith in public life. He cautions against sectarian campaigns and notes the Daily Telegraph’s delayed reporting of a resignation.
