Independence for the Filipinos
Is Also Urged.
ROOSEVELT TAKEN TO TASK
He Is Held to Have Usurped the Pow
ers of Congress-Further Investi
gation of Postoffice Depart
ment and the Piank.
BAItfTMORE. May 25. The Democratic
fitate Convention of Maryland met In thl3
city today, adopted a platform and elect
ed delegates to the St. Louis Convention
United States Senator Gorman was a dele
gate from Howard County, and his entry
Into the convention hall was the signal
for enthusiastic applause. The platform
adopted by the convention admittedly em
bodies Mr. Gorman's opinion of what the
National platform should be, he being a
member of the committee on resolutions,
It Is confined to National issues, and prac
tically Indorses the line of action followed
by the Democratic committee during the
late session of Congress. It calls for mod
erate tariff revision, Independence for the
Filipinos, economy In expenditures and
full investigation of all alleged crooked
ness In the Postoffice and other Govern
ment departments, and severely critlcses
the present Administration.
Expansion and Canal.
As to the Philippine Islands and the
Panama Canal, the platform contains this
clause:
"There Is no rightful place under our
system of constitutional American liberty
for the conquest, subjugation and govern
ment of alien races in remote Islands of
the sea, and for the dangers and evils
that accompany colonial and Imperial ex
pansion, and we pledge ourselves to the
adoption of all conservative and practica
ble measures to rescue the Government
from the ell consequences of so deplor
able a departure from the fundamental
principles of the Constitution. To this
end, we demand, at the earliest possible
moment. Independence shall be granted to
the Filipinos, with the same general re
lationship to this country as that now en
joyed by the people of Cuba.
"The Democratic party has been fore
most in aavocatlng the construction of
an interooeanlc canal for the purposes of
National defense and commerce between
the statee. While accepting the result of
the negotiations conducted by President
Roosevelt, we canot lose sight of the dis
turbing fact that the methods under
which the territory was acquired were in
defiant disregard of law and treaty obliga
tions toward a sister republic, too weak
to resist the ungenerous action of our
Government."
Members of Congress.
The Republican Senate and House of
Representatives are condemned for their
"persistent and deliberate refusal to per
mit an ln estimation" of alleged frauds In
the departments at Washington.
As to the present Administration, the
platform declares that President Roose
velt has been gulltyof "repeated and un
pardonable dictation to both branches of
Congress."
"We donounoo him," it continues,
"for flagrant encroachment upon the
rightful powers and Independence of
Congress, and, while amazed at the
subserviency of a Republican Senate
and a Republican House of Representa
tives to his orders and bold usurpation,
w declare his autocratic invasion ot
their freedom deserves, and should re
ceive the indignant rebuke and con
demnation of the people."
While the delegates to St. Louis were
not Instructed except to vote as a
unit, it is admitted that this course
was followed at the request of Senator
Gorman, the convention being plainly
In the humor to instruct for him. When
a delegate moved to so instruct. Sen
ator Gorman protested, and the mo
tion was withdrawn. The convention
adopted a resolution commending the
"boldness and vigor with which our
Senator, Arthur P. Gorman, has sig
nalized his return to his former field
of acknowledged leadership and dis
tinguished public services."
The following delegates-at-large
were chosen:
Senator Gorman, ex-Governor John
Walter Smith, State Treasurer Murray
Vanderiver, Congressman J. F. C. Tal
bot. Twelve district delegates were
also chosen.
Previous to adjournment Senator
Gorman, In response to Insistent calls,
briefly addressed the convention, and
said he was satisfied with the honors
that had been conferred upon him, and
that "no selfish ambition, no local
pride, no desire for personal favoritism
should hamper us until ie have re
deemed the country and placed a Dem
ocrat in the Presidential chair."

"TV-sixth GRAND FRIDAY ECONOMY SALE
OPPORTUNITIES TOR ECONOMICAL SHOPPING WERE NEVER GREATER!
When such a well-known and .RELIABLE house as OLDS, WORTMAN & KING, whose fame is far from being confined to the Pacific States, advertises anything, no matter how low the price may seem, QUALITY does not
suffer a whit. Such a thing has never been permitted in our nearly three-decade career among our own homefolk of Portland and her trade tributaries. Silent but eloquent, our steady growth in size and in the cenfidenca
of the community attests the fact. No nusrepresentations , no misleading statements, every measurement right to the fraction of an inch, a policy of honor as old as the house itself, stands behind every statement. Sweep

The
Surpassing Suit
Sale of the
Season
A surprising event in which values
figure as never before in the history of
women's suit selling in Portland. 'Tis
! lQ&$tf f !i I lWf e resu a maker's loss and a de
termination, on uur part tu iu
tribute such bargains today among
suit buyers as never before were known to be offered by a Portland house
to Portland women. The continued cold and unseasonable weather in the
East has spread consternation in big chunks among the makers of high
grade garments who provided over liberally for their trade this season.
The Fall run stares them in the face already-; hardly more than a month
must elapse ere our army of buyers start for our Eastern headquarters
at 438 Broadway, New York City, for Fall buying. A dollar of cash now
does the work of two in persuading manufacturers to unload their Sum
mer stocks. With usual foresight, our New York resident buyers have
taken advantage of these very unusual opportunities and selected un
stintedly, yet carefully, of the cream of several of the leading suitmakers
stocks at absurdly low prices. The suits came to ub by express early in
the week, and we've saved 'em for today's sale they go to you with
out a profit about 300 suits it's only one way we sow the seeds now to
? reap the benefits later in our expanded store. The suits are from the
leading man tailors and modistes of Eastern style centers.
THEY ARE IN BOTH DRESS AND PEDESTRIAN
(WALKING) STYLES
Materials included are Venetians, broadcloths, cheviots and fancy import
ed novelty goods, in blues, blacks, browns, grays, tans and all the new
est mixtures, the smartest colorings yet shown this season. In Etons,
blouse, military and jacket effects, with every new and popular idea in
trimming. All positively the latest, swellest styles of the advanced
season. The lowest value is a remarkable bargain at $20.00; most of
the suits are in the $25.00 and $30.00 to $35.00 class. jO AC
Today you may select at one price, viz 3 J-0
Imitators we may have, but 'twould be as impossible for a prattling school
boy to copy a Rembrandt as for local competition to equal these values.
