t; c raaw six MEDFORD MATH, TRTBUM, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY. OCTOBER 22, 1012. '?, ! ! .1 PIMM MB! uns m MARSHALL SAN VltANCISCO, Cal.. Oct. 28. "Torn" Marshall or Indiana, he'd rather bo called Tom than governor -democratic candidate for vice president Is nioro proud of liavlnc tho hahlea of paroled prisoners whom ho has Riven another chance? hack In tho llooslcr Mate named after lilm than ho In of tho poltlcal hon or tho people havo bestowed upon him. Ho said so today, sitting In his room at tho Palaco Hotel hero dur ing tho few minutes of lelsuro be fore he stood at tho head of a line at democratic headquarters for a big reception at noon. Honor Men Problem "Tho biggest business I have In hand, that I havo ever devoted my self to Is tho restoration of men to tho self-respect of which they have been robbed or bluffed out of," said tho Indiana governor. "In my state wo try to restore that essen tial self-respect to men who are down th rough our penal and charity policy and wo have had wonderful success. "And the boys who go out and mako good have been naming their baby boys after me. I tell you I am proud of that." Marshall doesn't talk In the ap proved political Idiom. "They assaulted me In Indiana for such sentiments at first," ho added, "but I said that as long as my of ficial actions aided In restoring men to manhood and self-respect, t was willing to let the Pharisees of In diana go ahead and continue to polish the outside ot their platters. After that they let up on Hie." Not Farm Xaborer Governor Marshall's conversation is replete with biblical references and pointed quotations from the classics, with which be is remarkably familiar. His homely philosophy la duced the question whether he had over worked on the farm. "Never did a day's work In my life," ho said with a smile. "Audi never Intend to, as long as I can keep out of it, "God made me a little skinny fel low. I couldn't saw a cord, of wood If I had to. I was sever meant to saw wood. That's why I'm aa In dividualist. I believe men were put hero to perform certain tasks and working hard wasn't what was al lotted to mo. "I havo never made any money. Never wanted very much. With me It's ben merely a medium of ex chang. I'd rather ho happy than nave money, and you can't have too much ot the latter and be happy." "And that sems to bring mo up against the trust question again, doesn't It? Well you can't get very far away from tho trusts these days In America. s 'Ttyo tnisl is Ihe only lliine; I know of except (lod that win make n I1 Inr out of nothing. And it's tho mak ing nnd "pemHnjr of thnt kind oH money that is pnthui; happiness out of buinc in tJiis country. It i not honestly mnile and it uios lnwly dowries lo the uirls who marry for eign dukes dirty money for dirty dukes. "Carnegie is Hint type of man. He mnde his money out of n vicious system. Now he wnuts to Rive it awny to tench others to make it likewise. Those who accept his H Hbrarics are lowering their self re spect. The people who rent a room nnd put in $.100 worth of Ixioks knowing that they earned the library enjoy it more than a Carnegie gift. "The boy who makes his first pith whistle is happier than a Carnegie, for the boy made the whistle himself nnd honestly. "And while we're talking about self respect, I want to say u won! about the necessity of restoring political respect in certain quarters." Marshall scored Governor Johnson and many other progressives for the methods employed in the use of the party emblem on the ballot nnd for denying many republicans the right to vote for President Tnft in Cali fornia. After Governor nnd Mr. Mnrshall received at democratic heaquariers, the vice presidential candidate was taken to the exposition ground-!, where he selected the Indiana state building site. Mrs. Marshall was taken in charge by a committee of women, nnd after luncheon was the gnest of the Town and Country club. Governor Marshall h brisk nnd alert, and the only indication of his fifty-eight years is in his silvered hair. "Why, I'm as good as vice presi dent now," he said while asked about the outcome of the campaign. "It showed Governor Wilson's sports manship when he refused to speak as long as Colonel Roosevelt is unable to take the stump. Thnt was fine and perfectly right. It made him still more friends. He will win by hitf odds."
