H;P E"QIFFEREN[]ES Congressman Would Have (rovernment Seize Fortunes: Postmaster Troup of New Haven Declares at Democratic Outing —Postmas on at New Haven, Aug. 20 Philip Troup took occ third annual outing of the Democratic association of the Twelfth Senator District, to tell the 75 or so dine: the various causes contributing to ti defeat of ex-Congressman Thomas L Reilly in the last congressional elec- tion. Mr. Reilly was preseat, and Was enthusiasticaily cheered, ~whe Postmaster Troup declared he we only taking a two vacation. Said Postmaster Troup: | T “\While it is an unwritten law ters ought not to ac in polit nevertheless duty to say someth the president of the U der this Twelfth :t association of demo- | crats to be the livest organization in state and I want to s: if we | had had similar tions in this | congressional d with half as much life two years ago, Tom Reilly would not be on a two years’ vaca- tion now. Of course everybody was | to blame for the defeat of Mr. Reilly I certainly never felt a political defeat so keenly as that one. It made me sick. ! were all sure Tom Reilly was going to win,—he was as cock-sure as we were that he was to be elected, and so we didn’t get out and hustle. We were overconfident. But had we or- ganizations similar to yours through- | out the district, there wouldn't have been the slightest doubt about his | re-election. Petty differences mil tated against him. I want to tell vou if T never got an office to which T aspired, if I was never fortunate | enough to be among those placed :n | political offices I don’t think it woula have any effect upon my loyalty to my party and if it did, T don’t think I would feel a worthy member of that party. Stands For Bigger Principles. “The democratic party stands for a bigger principle than all the patron- age of -city, town, or state put to gether. It is the duty of democrats to stand by the sgreat principles of the democratic party, that are being put into play and practice by Wooad- row Wilson’s administration, so much so that our political opponents have been silenced by the record. “For thirty years republicans control tried ineffectually to through a currency system. It re- mained for the administration of Woodrow Wilson to achieve Wwhere they have failed so that today, when the currency systems of the geat na- tions of the world have been strained to the breaking point, the one, and only one that stands pre-eminent that of the United States, and the United States is the hank of the vears’ that ively I feel be- ted Sen- it is my half of in put is markable devices have been produced | tle or no chance for the spread of | world. Refers To Tariff Question. “Then there is the tariff question. We -democrats have been told for years and years that the finest thing that could happen to this country would be a tariff wall so high that no foreign-made goods could come here and compete with those produced by American labor. The European war has raised the highest tariff wall this country has ever known. We have no competition from abroad a all, and yet our republican friends arc now shouting: ‘“‘See what your demo- cratic administration has done!” But the measure that the democrats have put through and are seeking to put through have silenced the republi- cans to such an extent that now, a vear from a national election, they don’t know who they are going to nominate and there is a strong senti- ment in the party to indorse Wood- row Wilson for another term. “This is a great achievement for Woodrow Wilson and the democratic party, one not to be lightly con- sidered but it must not make usover confident. We must get behind the administration, that stands for peace rather than war in this international conflict, Woodrow Wilson is mar- ried peace and in keeping this country out of war, he should have the backing of every patriotic citizen regardless of his party affiiliations.” Mr. Reilly’s Addre “I wish that the chairman of the state central committee and the vice chairman of the national democratic committee were here, for they would see an object lesson in this meeting of the democratic association from the Twelfth senatorial distric and 1 would like to see the democrats in the other districts of the state follow your example, and it does any stretch of imagination to enable us to realize what a great benefit to the democratic party would result from 35 such assoc ions as this. T am a believer in organizations, and T believe it is the duty of the national chair- | man to see to it that these organi ions are perfected. If we had 35 organ- izations like that of the Twelfth' sen- atorial district, the democratic party of the state would be much beiter off. “I am pleased to say that the pros- pect of the democratic party is much better today than it was six months ago. I am frank to say that it was not very promising then, from a democratic standpoint and the change is due to the splendid way in which our great president has conducted the affairs of this nation through thi | perilous time. God grant that h hands may be upheld and that his | wise direction may be continued to save us from the horrors of war.

In other words, Mr. Walsh and the three labor members of the commis- sion proposed to forbid heirs of wealthy Americans from inheriting more than $1,000,000 from any one cstate.
