As a result of the charges of
W. R. Hearst, that Gov. Haskell
was a tool of the Standard Oil
Co., the governor resigned as
treasurer of the Democratic
national campaign committee.
The anti-corporation campaign,
inaugurated by Mr. Bryan, has
bore fruit, but little did he ex-
pect that the treasurer of his
campaign committee would be
the first “piDpin” to hit the
grained. Great is the argument
that C. N. Haskell resigned to
prevent any embarassment to
the committee, and by so doing
he wishes to pose as a martyr
for ‘the cause.” What would
have been the result had Mr.
Haskell stood pat” and proved
himself innocent of the charges.
If the charges could not have
been substantiated, he certainly
would have been a martyr. His
accusers would have beee put to
flight and the cause of Democracy
advanced several points. Some
ask, why did T. R, Roosevelt
condesend to notice Haskell, or
in other words, why did Roose-
velt take a hand in the game. For
years Mr. Bryan has seezed up-
on every opportunity to discredit
the president, by trying to show
how the corporation were in-
directly connected with his ad-
ministration, and now that the
opportunity presented itself, it
was but natural the Mr. Roose-
velt should expose to Mr. Bryan
that his anti-corporation cam-
paign was not sincere, bu, a grand
stand play to deceive the credu-
lans voter. He picked a corpor-
ation baiter out from under Mr.
Bryan’s nose and held him up,
so that Mr. Bryan or his party
could make no mistake in the
identification.
Well, Haskell has resigned the
treasurership of the national
Democratic committee, and the
only defense presented in his
behalf by Mr. Bryan and his ad-
vocates is, ‘‘They haven’t proved
anything yet.”
Here is the out come of this
deal. Haskell wili not prove his
innosence and Mr. Bryan will
make no demand that he make
the effort.
