David Graham Phillips argued that this politician and Arthur Gorman were the leaders of the "political trust" in "The Treason of the Senate." This senator became the chairman of the National Monetary Commission after the passage of an emergency currency act passed in response to the Panic of 1907, which was named for him and Edward Vreeland. In 1911, that commission produced this Republican's namesake economic plan, which became the basis for much of the Federal Reserve. His dominance of American economic policy during the 1890s and 1900s caused him to be nicknamed "the General Manager of the Nation." A politician named for this senator served as Governor of New York from 1958 to 1973 and was appointed as the vice president of Gerald Ford. For ten points, name this Republican senator from Rhode Island who wrote a 1909 tariff bill that was combined with a bill sponsored by Sereno Payne.
