Powerful cattle barons tug at Nebraska rights and press freedom
Echoes of the cattle baron influence ripple through politics as Nebraska Republicans push back against perceived raids on public lands. The piece juxtaposes open trade, press suppression fears, and a critique of federal favoritism toward powerful interests amid wider questions of governance and taxpayer burdens.
Curbing the Trusts and Tariff Reform Debate
A critique argues that publicity alone cannot curb trusts and that tariff protection shields monopolies. It contends tariff revision could force lower prices and reduce extortionate charges, while acknowledging political risks for Roosevelt and Republicans delaying reform. It warns relief for small earners hinges on changed policy and harder times for action.
Tariff Reform Demanded by Minnesota Republicans
Minnesota Republicans press for reciprocity with Canada and tariff reform. The Reciprocity League in Minnesota warns it cannot rely on senators and representatives to push tariff revision without pressure from constituents. They say only tariff cuts can ease high prices, urging voters to urge their GOP lawmakers to back tariff reform.
