V HAWLEY OUTLINES CAMPAIGN ISSUES Nominee in fJeaverton Speech Announces Policy and Re views Work of Past. PARTY MAKING PROGRESS tirrat Volume of Bcnedclal LrtrlMa Hon Enacted bj RmnlContrms. Primary Decision Should Be Indorsed. BEAVERTON. Or.. Oct !6.-Specla.-Addresalnf a vood-alsetf and enthusiastic audience her tonight. Representative Hawley vigorously upheld th direct pri mary lav. made a atrocc plea for loyal support for the whole Republican ticket choMn under lis provisions, reviewed the work of the last Republican Cotirre, outlined a policy for tbe future and re ferred modestly. In passing, to his own achievements as a member of the lower bouse. Mr. Hswlry's speech was well received 21 prefaced Ms main argument with a prediction of Republican success In the state In the com Ins; election, based upon the enthusiasm that has creeled Jay Kowerman. nominee for Governor, whom Mr. Hawley has a'trompanled through Jrk"n. Josephine, Douglas. Lane. LJnn. Yamhill and Benton counties. The people." said Mr. Hawley. wer Impressed with Governor llowrrman's sincerity, ability and fitness for the office." Harmony prevailed, he said, and the rttln-toitether of Republicans waa everywhere causing general satisfaction. Work of Congress Effective. "Congress at Its last session. said Mr. Hawley. "enacted a -crest body of bene ficial, progressive legislation. - The rail road rale regulation act was strength ened by Important amendments, con spicuous amor.g which were those requir ing the approval of the Interstate Com merce Commission before any- advance In rates should become effective, author ising the Commission to begin proceed ings without waiting for such to b In stituted by a shipper, and giving the Commission power over classifications and regulaUona. A commerce court was created to expedite business. Railroads were required by other acts to report ac rldtnts. acd to equip their systems mora effectively with safety appliances. A commission to investigate - the Issuance of railroad securities was created with a new to legislation to prevent the sale of fictitious securities, or otherwise 'hlgh flnanclng the Investing public. The ques tion of the physical valuation of the properties of railroads will be included as a part of the problem. "It Is not the Intention to Interfere with any legitimate function of the rail made, or to prevent their earning a fair return for good service, but to protect the people and the public Interest from any Improper activity. The railroad bill was supported by the whole Republican party in Congress, and opposed by the lemocratIc strength in both houses. Corporation Law Strengthened. "For the control of other corporations, with the same purposes In view, a cor poration tax was laid which earns about 1-3.'0.ijC0 for the public treasury annually and furnishes an Indirect but effective method of keeping the Government ad vised as to the kinds of business done by all corporations, and which will ma terially assist la the enforcement of the laws. "Our opponents pose In their ante-elec-t'oa promises as the friends of the peo ple, and as strongly favoring tbe regula tion of Interstate corporations. But al though they have had seats In Congress for 110 years, such laws have been uni formly due to Republican votes. Indeed, when In a recent Congress an amend ment was proposed to the Constitution of the United tSates giving Congress power to regulate, control, prohibit or dissolve trusts, monopolies or combina tions, whether existing In the form of a corporation or otherwise, every Demo crat but on voted aaginst It, and every Republican but two voted ' for it; even a few Democratic votes would have se cured Its passage. Thus our Democratic friends are proline In promises, but when the time comes to vote, vote against the people." Tariff Is Improvement. Mr. Hawley said that although If he had been writing the tariff bill alone, he would have changed It In several par ticulars, be supported It because, on the whole. It was better suited to present conditions than the Dlngley law. Ex perience had proved the bill to be a gen eral revision downward. It had pro vided the corporation tax and the tariff commission with enlarged powers: neces sary readjustments can be mad later. Mr. Hawley favored the plan of taking up single schedules separately and amending them scientifically. Continu ing his discission of the work Congress accomplished, he said: ""We passed tbe postal saving bank act. the Bureau of Mines act. the act authorising the Issuance of IJD.O0O.O0O re clamation certificates, the act preventing the manufacture and sale of misbranded or adulterated spraying materials used by farmers and fruitgrowers, and the act for the publication of campaign contribu tions and expenditures. Own Work Reviewed. "As your Representative, you desired me to do certain things. In compliance with such demands, among other things' I secured as a member of the House over ISsO.000 for river and harbor Im provement In the district. Including "COO. vo for the locks at Oregon City, and VW.OCO for the Willamette and Tamblll rivers: more than H37.0O for other pur poses, and an amendment In the general deficlenry act looking to the payment of Oregon's Civil War claim of more than (193.000. As a member of the committee on agriculture. I bad the Lafean apple box bill laid on the table, a bill most harmful to the apple-growing Industry of Oregon, and which, had It become a law. would have discouraged Its growth, j was one f a sub-committee of eve of that same committee which prepared and had passed by the House a bill to pre vent gambling In cotton on the cotton exchanges, and with a view of extending its provisions to cover gambling In all farm products. "If re-elected I shall, among other things, continue to work for further ap propriations for rivers and harbors, that they may be fully Improved: for appro priations for public buildings and other Internal Improvements; to protect our dairying Industry from Imitation butter: to secure the opening of all agricultural land to settlement and I have already accomplished a good deal along this line: to secure the use of our natural re sources. Including our water powers. In every proper way; to have a law passed giving settlers and miners the right of appal to the common courts from the decisions of the Interior Department: adequate pensions for veterans. I voted for the inoome tax amend At. acd 1U vol Xoc an amendment to the United States Constitution for the election of Senators by direct vote of the pople. "I favor the direct primary law and always have. Recently under It th Re publicans nominated a full ticket. Every one who registered as a Republican and voted In Ita primary, did so freely, but as If unrfar nath lr tha direct primary Is to have any value. If the expense of holding It Is to be Justified, if the will of the people as expressed by -the direct primary la to have any force, then every one who reg:stered as a Republican should In all good conscience support the men so nomfhated. What Is the good of the direct primary, what force has the people's will. if. after the pri mary has been held, those who partici pated In It pay-no heed to Its decisions? I believe the people respect the direct primary, and intend to enforce Us de cisions, and that the Republicans will show their loyalty to It. by electing th entlr Republican ticket." The speaker strongly urged the special claims and fitness of eacn canaiaaie on h. tir-k.t and in-red the election of all. and closed by calling attenUon to the prosperity of the country under Repub lican management. 1000 WARRANTS DENIED COVItT REFUSES TO ARREST SEATTLE OFFICIALS.

He opposed prohibition because he was a friend of liberty, he said. Mr. Story referred to a declaration of Mrs. Armor that one of the reasons why she was a prohibitionist was that her father was a drunkard. "You will vote," ha added, "that the most rabid and Intemperate prohibi tionists are individuals who either at some time were weaklings' or, as in Mrs. Armor's case, had drunkard fath ers or husbands. In other words, these fanatics would punish the ma jority who use God's blessings tem perately because they or some of their kinsmen are moral weaklings, who are a disgrace to humanity." Mr. Story said that 80 per cent of the people of the United States used wines or spirituous liquors, 15 per cent are total abstainers and 5 per cent are drunkards.
