He cites Elkins and Hepburn railroad laws, disputes over Philippine tariffs and canal type, and asserts endorsement should align with majority public sentiment, not mere party.

The speaker argues appropriations are enjoined and decrease while demands grow. Only close supervision can achieve the object. The army’s needs guide him, not a single department, and if loyalty matched his commitment to the service, his stewardship would gain credit against critics of department methods.
