Speech of Henry Cabot Lodge before the Central Labor Union of Boston
In this speech, Senator Lodge argues against the Public Opinion Bill, which he believes will destroy representative government. He goes through a short history of the governments in the world, noting that the advance toward political liberty always went hand-in-hand with representative government. Because he loves freedom and hates tyranny, Lodge opposes the bill.
