War Between McKinley Cabinet and Campaign Bosses Over Tax Cuts
Report outlines a clash between McKinley era campaign managers and his Cabinet over revenue cuts. House Ways and Means forced a 25 cent per barrel beer tax reduction, expanding the Revenue Reduction bill beyond hundred million while McKinley favored a thirty million cap. Cabinet opposition forecasts fight with Congress bosses, with McKinley likely to quell tensions. Richardson filed a minority report backing deeper cuts. The Great Oleomargarine bill passed by a large vote, revealing political lines between agricultural and manufacturing sectors. Senator Teller urged US canal independence from Britain, arguing construction without Britain’s consent.
