I submtl to those , most Interested, the wage-earner, the farmers and business men, whether the Introduction Into power of the democratic party, with Bryan at Its head, and with the business destruc tion that It openly advocates as a rem-, edy for the present evils will bring about the needed 6onfldence for the restoration of prosperity. The repub lican doctrine of protection Is thst the tariff shall be Imposed on all Import ed product sufficiently to create an iqual difference between the coat of production abroad and at home and that thlo difference should Include the BLUE MOUNTAIN HOUSE T.

Only house in the city employing white help only TRY OUR SERVICE difference between higher wages paid In this country and th,e wages pi'l abroad and embrace a reasonable prof it to the American producer. The material development has great ly changed the conditions under which many articles described by the sched ules of the Dlngley tariff are now pro business Incident to such a change as little as possible. We come now to the question of labor. One Important phase of the policies of the present ad ministration has been anxiety to se cure for the wage-earner equality of opportunity and such positive statu tory protection shall place him on a level In dealing with his employer. . . Both Hare Common Interests. The Interests of the employer and the employe never differ except when It comes to a division of the Joint profit of labor and capital' Into divi dends and wages. ' To give employes the proper position In such a contro versy, to enable them to maintain themselves against their employers having great capital, they may well unite because In union there Is strength and without It each Individ ual laborer and employe would be helpless. The promotion of industrial peace throughout the Instrumentality of a trade agreement Is often one of the results of such a union when it Ix Intelligently conducted. There Is a large 1ody of laborers, however, skill ed and unskilled, who do not organize Into unions. Their right before the law are exactly the same as those of union men and are to be protected with the same care and watchfulness. tttT ! Creditors Big Salel Continues! Red Cross Bm Store A. C. MAC LLNNAN Propr. LA GRANDE, .. ORE, Have Bight to Strike. In order to Induce the employer In to compliance with a request for changed terms of employment, work men have a right to strike in a body. They have the right to use such per- sualon as they may, provided it doen not reach the point of duress, to load reluctant co-laborers to join them In the union against the employer and have the right if they choose, to ac cumulate funds to support those en gaged In a strike, to delegate to offi cers the power to direct the action of the union and withdraw thrmsolve and their associates from dealing with, or giving custom to those with whom they are In controversy. What they have not. the right to do Is to Injur the empolyer's property. To Injure the employer's business by the use of threats or methods of physical duress against those who would work for him or deal with him, or- by carrying on what is some times known as.a sec ondary boycott against, customers or those with whom he deals In business. A. Fundamental Rule. prudence that no man shall be affect ed by a judicial proceeding without notice and hearing. This rule, how ever, sometimes has exception In tht issuing, of temporary restraining or ders commanding the . defendant, In effect, to malittain status quo untti a hearing. Such a process should issue only In rare cases where the threat ened change in sUtus quo. would In flict Irreparable. Injury If the time were taken to give notice and hold summary hearing. ... . ; , j A Practice Too- Common. In some state courts and in fewer federal courts the practice of Issuing temporary restraining orders without notice merely to preserve status que on the theory that it will not hurt any body has been too common. This hat made the laboring man feel the injus tice done in the .Issuance of a "writ without notice. I conceive that in the treatment of this question it is the du ty of the citizen and the legislator to view the subject from the standpoint of the man who believes himself to be unjustly treated as Well as that of the community at large. I have suggested the remedy ef re turning In such cases to the original practice under the old statutes of the United States and the rules In equity adopted by the supreme court, which did not permit the Issuing of an In junction without notice. In this re spect the republican convention adopt ed another remedy that without going so far, promises to be efficacious In securing the proper consideration In such cases by courts by formulating Into a legislative act the best present practice. Democratlo rhurorm Silent. : With ' respect to notice, the demo cratic platform contain no recom mendation. Its only Intelligible decla ration In regard to Injunction suits Is the reiteration of the plank In the plat form of 1891 and 1104, providing that, in prosecutions for contempt In fed eral courts, where violations of the or der constituting contempt charged. Is outside the presence of the court there shall be a jury trial. The ex tended operation of such a provision to weaken the power of the courts In the enforcement of lawful orders can hardly be overstated. Maintenance of Authority Essential. The administration of Justice lies at the foundation of the government. The maintenance of the authority of the court Is essential unless ws are prepared to embrace anarchy. Never In the history of, the country has there been such an tnslduous attack upon the Judicial system as the pro posal to Interject Jury trial between all orders of the court made after a full hearing and the enforcement of such orders. ' 1 The republican platform refers to the amendment of the constitution passed by the republican party for the protection of the negro. The best man of both races ought to rejoice to see growing up among the southern peo ple an Influential element disposed to encourage the negro In his hard strug gle. HcKlnley, Roosevelt and the re publican party have constantly advo cated a policy with respect ' to the army and navy that will keajt this re public at all times able to defend her territory and doctrines and assure her an appropriate part In promoting tran qulllty among the nations. Restrict Asiatic Immigration. In the matter of putting a limit upon Astatlo Immigration referred to In the democratic platform It Is suf ficlent to say that the present repub lican administration shorn s Itself able to minimise the evils suggested , and the subsequent republican admlnlntra tion can be counted upon to continue the same policy. Another plank In the democratic platform refers to the , Revision of the tariff begun prompt-( ly upon the Incoming of the new ad ministration and considered at a spe-! ciat session with the preliminary In-: vestlgatlons already begun by an ap propriate committee of the house and senate will make the disturbances of failure of the republican convention! to express an opinion In favor of the publicity ; of . contributions received and expenditures made in elections. ..Invites Comparison. Here again we contrast our oppo nent; promises , with our "own. acts. Great improvement has taken place-, under republican auspices in respect to tho collection and expenditures of money for this purpose. If elected I shall urge upon congress that a law' be' passed requiring the filing in a fed-' eral office of a statement of contribu-' tlona received by committees and can didates In eelctlons. In my judgment an amendment to the constitution for an Income tax Is not necessary. With reBpect to the election of senators by the people personally I am Inclined to favor, but Jt Js .hardly a party ques tion. The foreign, policy ot tne cuuu try under the present administration : t - has greatly contributed tuNeace of the world. . 7-, ' As soon as we uphold the system of ji . protection for our home industries, we" must recognize that it is inapplicable . to assist those qf our citizens engaged , In the foreign shipping, because there is no feasible means of excluding for eign competltln and that the only . other method of building up such bus iness Is In th mall subsidy. To Continue Present Policy. ' , I am In favor of the bill considered In the last congress as a tentative step.' : . I have, pointed out that the attitude of th republican party with reference to evils which have crept in is to con Inuo the Roosevelt policies of prog-.. r ress and regulation, While the attitude ' of the democratic party under . the present leadership is to change for the sake of change to the point of irre- ' sponsible destruction and that there is no hope whatever of restoration1 of prosperity In returning It to power. ;, ; ' Land for Rent.
