Washington Notes on Lobbyists and Reciprocity Debates
Sensational notes before the senate finance committee reveal Allen and Graham New York lobbyists as not attorneys for the National Grange but as campaign fund organizers. They sought to inflame farmers against reciprocity to protect trusts in lumber, pulp and paper, woolen, and other sectors while also having represented whiskey and Standard Oil in past lobbying. A feud between Col Bryan and Underwood over the wool schedule is noted, with Wilson seen as a unifying candidate. Lorimer's bribery case is reopened, promising a thorough investigation and party fusion in the final vote.
