MORXIXf' OREGONxait, WJEUraSDAY. OCTOBER 12, 19l6 ROOSEVELT' HAPS UNHOLY T AMMANY Ex-President Also Scolds Mis souri Democrats for Trust Allegiance. TARIFF STAND IS UPHELD Colonel In St. Louis Speech Extols Republican Commission System. Opening Campaign He Scores Antagonists. ST. LOUIS. Oct 11. Theodore Roose velt denounced the Democratic party In New York a an "unholy alliance be tween W all street and Tammany Hall . here tonight, and Incurred the enmity of the Democratic party in Missouri by calling It "the party that supports spe cial Interests and privileges." Colonel Roosevelt also defended the position of the Republican party on the tariff. He did not discuss the Payne-Aldrich tariff law. saying that he wished the people to look forward and not backward. He said the party was united on the doctrine that the tariff should be such as to equalize the cost of production here and abroad, and that it should be regulated by a cora- He said that, under the present sys tem it was impossible to obtain satis factory results, and added when the commission system was established there should be Governmental super vision to determine whether the work men were getting the benefit thy were supposed to have from the tariff. In reference to the tariff. Colonel Roosevelt said: "As to the tariff, it seems to me that the situation is much clearer than some people would have us believe. I fully admit that there was a time when, if our opponents had acted with reason able wisdom, they could have made us trouble. But they let the opportunity slip by and did not act with reasonable vMom. , . -The Republican party la united on the doctrine officially set forth In lta National programme two years ago, that the tariff shall be such as to sub stantially equalize the cost of produc tion here and abroad. As the cost of production is mainly labor cost, thU means primarily that the duty should be great enough to continue to give to our laboring men that higher standard of wage, without whjch there cannot be a higher standard of living, which pri marily distinguishes the American wageworker from the wage-Workers of all other countries. Protection Victory Seen. "Now. not only Is this the doctrine f the Republican party, but I believe tt Is the doctrine of the overwhelming majority of the American people. I do not believe that any section of the American people at present seriously advocates free trade or a tariff for reve nue only. I most, emphatically do be lieve that If any such Issue is raised, there will be an overwhelming deci sion In favor of the policy of such measure of protection as that above outlined. "Now the question Is how to accom plish the purpose thus explicitly de clared. It seema to me. and I think that more and more tt seems to the people of this country, that the methods hitherto obtaining In making all tarlfTs for a great many years past, are In effective In correctly and Justly ap plying the principle as outlined above. Tariff Commission Wanted. "We wish to give proper protection to each given business, and above all, to the workmen In each given business, is a matter of right and Justice, and not as a matter of favor or preference and above all. not give proper protec tion as a matter of f.ivor or preference obtained by log rolling. "Therefore, we feel that there should be a tariff commlss'on. composed of im. partial experts, amply equipped for ob taining, not merely from the state ments of interested parties, but by eui h Investigation as will satisfy them that the facts are accurate. Information that will enable Congress in each given case to establish the measure of pro tection necessary to carry out the prin ciples above set forth. " "Moreover. these Investigations should form a programme, each suc cessive report being treated on its mer its, so that each schedule can be re vised by itself In accordance with the facts developed by this commission of impartial experts, and without any heed being paid to any other consideration than the Justice of that particular case. This will prevent log rolling, and it will also prevent the lar-reachlng dis turbance of business which necessarily comes when all the schedules are re vised in a lump. Investigation Is Advocated. Finally. I th'nk It should be the duty of some Government body at any time, to fnvestigate conditions In any par ticular industry to see whether the working men do actually get the benefit that the tariff Is primarily created to give; that Is. to see that the laborer gets his full share of the benefit of the protective tariff in acordance with what I firmly believe to be the purpose of the American people. "By enacting Into law such a policy as that above outlined, we shall, on the other hand, do away with the danger of Injury to American industries which would follow If they were left wholly without protection from foreign competi tion, and on the other hand, would make It sure that the laboring man gets the benerit of the tariff primarily enacted in Ms Interest, do away with the favoritism and log rolling which under present con ditional seem inevitable In the process of tariff making and mske It certain that the amount of protection granted In each case Is the amount actually necessary to cover the difference in the cost of pro duction here and abroad and not so exclusive as to represent improper favoritism to any special group of men." Speech Opens Campaign. It was Colonel Roosevelt's first fpeerh In the present campaign. The great coli seum was crowded to the doors with a throng which cheered him frequently. He began Ms speech by commending Governor Hadley as "an upright and fearless public servant." New York Bonrbons Scored. "In New York state our opponents call themselves the Democracy." he said. -Trey have not the slightest relation to any historic National party bearing that same. For in New Tork what calls It self Democracy consists In reality of an wnholy alliance between Wall Street and Tammany Hall It is enough to make Andrew Jackson, of Tennessee, and Tom Benton, of Missouri, turn in their graves to realise ' what the organizations are that claim to be their spiritual heire ami representatives at this present day. "And aa it is In New Tork, ao It la here In Missouri, the genuine party of the people, the party that stands for popular rights, that stands for all the people. Is the Republican party; and the party of reaction and of Bourbon Ism, the party that represents the spe cial Interests and special privileges. Is the party that arrogates to itself, for sooth, the name of Democracy." Continuing his excoriations of the New York Democrats. Colonel Roose velt referred to Murphy as the boss of the party, who dictated what was to be done. This, he said, was arranged in Murphy's room and the candidates came, "hat in hand," for their orders. He then referred to "our antagonists" as the party of all the special inter ests. He continued: Party Tactics Jarred. "A. party that nominates Mr. Bryan as a radical one year and Mr. Parker as an ultra-conservative next time, and then Mr. Bryan again, and then waits to see if somebody won't carry an election somewhere so they can nominate him again that party has forfeited the right to respect and sup port of Independent citizens who seri ously wish well to their native land. "We have a -coherent policy. We have had difficulties. We are settling them, not by a compromise of princi ples, but by coming together on a plat form which is one of high principle and also one of proved efficiency. We ask you to support us. We ask you to support us in Missouri as in New York, because we preach the same doctrine In Missouri and in New York: because what I say to you tonight is exactly what I should say in every state in this union." Colonel Roosevelt will leave it I A. M. tomorrow for Peoria, 111., where he will speak to the Knights of Columbus. ROOSEVELT TAKES TRIP (Continued From First Page.) bounded forward pver the-grass, as the guardsmen released it Colonel Roosevelt gripped the rail hard and looked straight ahead. The aeroplane skipped over the field for a few yards, then lifted its nose Into the air. rising easily. Members of the party that had gone to the field from St. Louis, with the Colonel began a mad hunt for him. "Where's Colonel Roosevelt?" they asked, running up to the guardsmen. "He's up there." one of the guards said, pointing to the airship. Crowd Silent With Fear. The aeroplane sped quickly around the field at a height of less than 100 feet. It was th first lap of a mile and a half before the crowd was con vinced that it was really Colonel Roosevelt who was Hoxsey's passen ger. When the machine swept past the grand stand the Colonel leaned forward a bit and waved his hands. The spec tators were too frightened to call back to him. and the crowd was silent, watching the aeroplane with intense excitement. The engine crackled and spluttered, hurling the aeroplane forward at a speed of nearly a mile a minute, but from the ground it looked as though It was traveling comparatively slow. It sailed so even and smootMy. At the end of the second lap Hoxsey dipped his planes and the aeroplane descended easily, landing as lightly as a feather a few rods from the grand stand. Colonel Wildly Cheered. , When the people were convinced that he had landed safely they cheered wildly and the guards had all they could do to keep the crowd from break ing Into the 'field and sweeping down upon the Colonel. Colonel Roosevelt's first act was to reach for Hoxsey's hand and shake it vigorously. "It was great: First-class: it was the finest experience I ever had." he declared. . "I wish I could stay up for an hour, but I haven't the time this afternoon." Governor Hadley. with a long sigh of relief, stepped up to the Colonel and conducted him to his automobile. They rode down the field past the cheering crowd, and then started back ifor St. Louis. Walter Brooklns and A. I Welsh, the latter on an endurance run. fol lowed the ex-Prcsldent's party In the aeroplane, while Alfred Le Blanc In Ms Blerlot monoplane, led the automobile procession. The aerial escort contin ued for almost two miles from the avi ation field. On the trip to St.. Louis. Colonel Roosevelt stopped to make a short speech whare a great crowd had col lected at the courthouse. From Clayton the Colonel drove Into St. Louis and went to the State Fair grounds, where several thousand school children were waiting to hear him speak. "I have had a great time in St. Louts today." he said. "It seems to me that It Is a wide-awake town. It Is the only place that ever put me up In the air," and then he told the children of his flight. More than 70.000 men are employed on the flohlnx fleet of Canada. CHURCH ASSAILS FALSE DOCTRINE Presbytery Objects to Taint ed Men in Foreign Missions. NATIONAL BOARD ATTACKED Local Branch Demands Definite Ac tionWordy Dispute Follows and Minority Report Is Includ ed in' Measure. Men of unsound doctrine are not wanted In the foreign mission field by the Portland Presbytery and this opin ion was transmitted yesterday to the National Presoyterlan Foreign Mission Board following a lengthy conference yesterday of the local presbytery In the Rose City Park Churchr The question was brought by the re port of a committee on foreign missions which held the National Board as evasive In Its answers to questions In this connection. Several months ago the Portland Presbytery sent an in quiry to the National Board, asking that men tainted with raise doctrine do excluded. The board was asked to ex ert its Influence to prevent such a con dition. The answer was received and was read yesterday morning, but it did not answer the questions asked ana seemea evasive to the members. The commit tee on foreign ntlssions recommended that the answer be returned with the request that the board make definite answer. Rev. C. W. Hays made a strong argu ment against this action on the grounds that the local presbyteries ordain the ministers and are responsible for their soundness of doctrine and that It was r.ot the business of the foreign mission board to inquire into the doctrinal fit ness of the men sent Into the foreign field. Rev. William Parsons, of the Third Presbyterian Church, contended that the foreign mission hoard should inquire into the doctrinaff fitness of missionaries and said that there were cases where unfit men had been sent to the foreign field. Rev. Robert Mc Lean, of Grants Pass, who was a mis sionary In South America and also In Porto Rico, declared that the presby teries could not be trusted to ascertain the doctrinal fitness of candidates for the foreign field at the ordination, and gave Illustrations of men who were un fit being sent out with the stamp of approval from the presbyteries. He held that It was the duty of the foreign mission board to pass on the theological as well as physical, mental and moral fitness of men Intended for the foreign field. Independent of the presbyteries. The motion to ask for a more definite answer from the Foreign Missionary Board was carried by a large majority. Rev. C. W. Hays. Rev. E. M. Sharp. Rev. W. S. Gilbert and several others asked that their names and negative votes be rr.s'ie a part of the records of the pres by cry, which was done. Kjv. William Parsons, who advocated the passage of the motion, said that the action would give Portland Presbytery a National reputation and' that other presbyteries had expressed to him sat isfaction last Summer that Portland Presbytery had taken this up. Rev. Otto Hofner. pastor of the Bethany German Presbyterian Church, was ordained In the afternoon. Mr. Hofner was first subjected to an ex amination In open presbytery as to his religious and educational qualifications. He will be installed as pastor of Beth any Church Sunday, November 13.

Emmett Precinct won the first prize of $150; Roswell, second, $100, and Parma, third, $50. The display of fruit In these preoinct exhibits was an eye pener even to the Canyon County peo ple, while Eastern people who visited the fair were astonished at what they saw. Individual farm exhibits and indi vidual displays of vegetables, grains, grasses, honey, etc.. made up a. show such as seldom is gathered In a county fair anywhere. Two years ago a building especially for women's work was erected and this was filled to Its capacity with art and needle work.-drawings and water colors, preserved and canned fruits and speci mens of the culinary art. This year a "Merchants' Hall" was erected and in this the business firms of the city dis played their wares, dairy and farm machinery being most prominently dis played, though one or two department stores bad artistic exhibits. A large display of poultry was on exhibition, nearly 500 birds being shown. Most of them were high-class fowls and In good condition for the season of year. The stock show, which has always been a strong feature, was the best In the history of the fair. In cattle, the feature that attracted most attention was the herd of Here fords, owned by George Chandler, of Baker, Or., that stopped here for exhi bition on their way to the Boise fair. His aged bull weighs almost 2600 pounds, and Is remarkably smooth and well formed. There was also a good showing of local Jersey and Polled Angus cattle. One of the finest herds of Poland China hogs In the West, owned at Payette, was shown, while another herd of the blacks and two of Duroc Jerseys and one of large Yorkshire made a strong hog show. While the grounds purchased three years ago are not yet paid for, the di rectors of the association are so well pleased with the results this year that plans are already under way for a num ber of new features and a greater fair next year. A dairy building will be erected, part of it to be used for apiary exhibits; new horse stalls built, and much more comprehensive and liberal premi ums for horses and other stock offered. 3 - " mill 1 3C3 5 TOTS HELD FOR THEFT MERCHANT ACCUSES OWN CHILD AS WELL AS OTHERS.
