Snow of Illinois District Seeks Best Speaker Candidate
Congressman Herman W. Snow, from Illinois, says he will vote for the best man for speaker and will oppose the subtreasury and Stanford bills. He favors reciprocity with nations, opposes government control of the telegraph, supports a commercial union with Canada on fair terms, and believes the silver question should be left alone. He wants no further World’s Fair appropriations and supports tariff revenue, while favoring equalization of old laws. Snow shifts from Republican roots and is out of step with the current Democratic party.
