Democratic Press Bulletin critiques Taft era economy

A lengthy Democratic bulletin argues per capita state and federal costs, cites Oklahoma and national comparisons, critiques Taft and Taft Republicans, praises Oklahoma Democratic steadfastness, and notes public notices on state finances, education, and institutions. The piece references Roosevelt, corporate influence, and economic policy across periods.

Political debate over government spending and population growth

The piece argues that Democratic rule caused heavy federal spending, citing Roosevelt era appropriations and a sharp rise in per capita government cost from 1860 to 1910. It counters Republican charges of extravagance by noting population growth and total expenditures, framing the era as an “amazing record” that should silence Oklahoma Republican critiques.
