TO THE PEOPLE DF OREGON.
Tlie apiiroacliiug election is one of the
most Important in the history of tl e
State, livery voter shoulil carefully con
sider his ballot before cust'mg it, The
people here aud elsewhere are fest
awnketiiiiK to see that elections are often
n contest between the rights of the peo
ple and the corporate interests.
Among the Initiative laws to lie ote
on in June are two put forward by the
State Grange, rntron of Husbrldry,
which h.ive been largely endorsed hy the
farmers the taxpayers and the working
nicn geiicrntlo. One bill provide for an
annttnl license ta upon the rroas earn.
lugs of oil, sleeping car and refrigerutor
car companies. 'Vote 318 X Ys oa .
'lot.) The other provi del a similar tax
I on express, telephone and telegraph com-
panic. (Vote 320 X Yes on ballot.)
These corporations have becu doing a
profitable business in the State of Oregon
j and have hitherto escaped any tax wort'i
mentioning. The expense of State
1 Government are rnuiillv increasing, and
the bnrden of taxution fulls more and
more heavily upon the Owner of real
estate. Other states have similar laws in
force, and relief has come, thereby, to the
farmer and to the man wlo own hi
home.
Tbe Orange has labored long to secure
a more equal taxation in Oregon, and has
peeitioned for thesa luws in expectation
that every taxpayer and fair-minded man

CAKE OPPOSED TO Tttl'STH.
F.very combination of capitnl known as
a trust should be placed under the ban of
the law, not only should trust corpora
tions themselves tie barred from doing
business, but the individuals responsible
for the combinations should be punished
as provided law. says H. M. Cake, candi
date for United States Sanator.
There is probably no man in the State
of Oregon more pronounced iu bis opin
ions upon this subject than Mr. Cake, as
evidenced by his actions and past utter
ances. He is not the attorney for, is not in
terested in. nor docs he represent, direct
ly or indirect'', any trust.
He believes in the obsolute freedom of
cmiijictilion in all lines of business the
preservation of the equal rights of the en
tire citizenship of the country, free from
interference by combinations of capital.
Mr. Cake is a firm believer in the right
