Foraker Seeks Delegation Challenge to Taft
Washington DC Nov 30 Senator J B Foraker declares he will contest the Ohio delegation to the Republican national convention with Mr Taft. In a letter to Conrad J Mattern vice president of the Ohio Republican League he cites league resolutions endorsing Foraker for senator and for the presidential nomination. He defends his stance on the railroad rate bill and argues railroads must spend millions annually to expand facilities, making it a bad time to hamper them. Foraker notes he is gratified by the committee indorsement as a rebuke to removing honor from the Senate by turning it into a mere agent to register others’ decrees.
