HARMON SIGHS FOR
OF
Democratic Candidate Criti
cises Taft for Signing
Tariff Measure.
TRUST POLICY ATTACKED

ment la Dot lea.
XUT 6T. LOUIS, IU Jan. 11 ""Oh.
for aa hoar of Andrew Jackson."
This slogan, figuratively a wian, for
the resurrection of tha tariff ana
conomio pollolea of President Jackson,
summarized tha views or Governor
Harmon In a speech tonight bafora the
DamocraUo Club here. Tha oocaalon
was tha calebratlon of tha 100th an
niversary of tha battla of Kaw Or
leans. "Jackson urged a gradual reduction
of tariff taxes." said tha Governor,
-especially on necessaries, at a time
when they wera levied mainly for rev
enue. When recently we saw a Presi
dent led against bis Just Inclination to
sign and praise a tariff bill which broke
his own and his party's promise of re
form and -then In the face of bis ex
press admissions, veto bills for reduc
tion of tariffs by Congress under direct
command of the voters of the entire
country, people everywhere exclaimed,
as they did In the days of tha vaccllat
Ing Buchanan. "Oh. for one hour of
Andrew Jackson." "
Taa Power Faraaeel Oa."
The Governor attacked the financial
policy of the last three Republican
administrations as having- increased the
Federal outlay from 11.000.000.000 every
two years to more than $1,000,000,000 a
year. He devoted most attention, how
ever, to what he described as "one of
the worst abuses known In history"
arrans;lns; tariff taxes so aa to enable
favored manufacturers to collect from
the public a much larger sum than one
billion dollars for their own benefit.
According to reliable estimates," he
aald. "for every dollar the Government
receives on articles Imported, the
favored manufacturer eollecte S3 above
the normal prices of like articles from
American consumers. This Is. In effect,
farming; out the taxing; power.
"Now, we find the business of the
entire country disturbed and halting
because this system of favored taxes
has brought Us certain results. Un
natural competition waa stimulated by
these and then suppressed by the for
mation of trusts and combinations In
order that dividends might not cease on
stock which was the capitalization of
this special advantage. Instead of cut
tins: off the source by reforming; the
tariff, it was sought to control the
stream by forbidding; those trusts and
combinations.
Co art Enforces Trsmt Laws.
"The Supreme Court flrst enforced
the anti-trust law. It waa In a pro
ceeding by the Government against
the trans-Missouri Freight Association.
Boon alter It did the same in two other
cases against the joint traffic associa
tion and the Addystone and other pipe
companies. By these cases, the Damo
craUo Attorney-General's office, which
I had the honor to occupy. ! rod the
way for the enforcement of f. iw. for
the Government had lost in ; .! cases
which preceded these. There were also
pending at the expiration of my term
investigations of the beef trusts, and
others.
"But it appears not to be the policy
of the succeeding administration to
proceed further against such concerns.
They grew and multiplied until one was
reminded of the pictures where primi
tive men moved fearfully among; mon
sters. And the country was made to
believe for a time that this state of
things was "prosperity.' It is said that
an ounce of prevention Is worth a
pound of cure. In tljls instance It
would have been worth a ton. for the
Sherman law waa distinctively a pre
ventive measure.
"The flrst step surely must be to
redeem the tariff from Its perverted use
and restore It to Its proper place as
s revenue measure by gradual reduc
tions so that all concerned may have
time to prepare for the change. With
the. chief cause of the trouble thus
removed. I believe we shall make our
way safely back to normal conditions."

formed to organize the United States
Bteel Corporation before Mr. McKinley
was elected President in laOO, and that
the deal was completed soon after his
election. He brought out the .fact that
Carnegie had told McKinley to have
nothing to do with Imperialism or the
acquisition of the Philippines.
"Were there any negotiations be
tween you and J. P. Morgan prior to
1801 regarding the formation of the
Eteel Corporation T" asked the member
from Maine.
'I never heard of any until Mr.
Schwab caine to me in 1901 with Mr.
Morgan's offer to buy my property,"
Mr. Carnef.ie answered.
"Were vhere not some negotiations
as early as 1S00T"
"I never heard of anyx"
"In 1900 were you not very much op
posed to the policy of Imperialism?"
Taking of Philippines Opposed.
"Tea, I was. and I asked Mr. McKin
ley not to have anything to do with it.
I was opposed to the acquisition of the
Philippines."
"Is It not also true that early in
100 you were opposed to William Mc
Kinley for President?"
"No," Mr. Carnegie replied, giving
evidence of confusion.
"I do not know of anything that
would have made me opposed to Mr.
McKinley."
"Is It not a tact that in January,
1900, you attended a meeting of antl
lmperiallsts at which you pledged your
self to contribute $25,000 to prevent
the nomination and re-election of Wil
liam McKinley, If they would raise a
like amount?" Mr. McGilllcuddy asked.
J. H. Reed, attorney for the Steel
Corporation, objected to this question.
Chairman Stanley overruled the objec
tion. Mr. Carnegie looked at his counsel
nervously and replied:
"I can't tell you about that. I do
not recollect that I ever did anything
to oppose the nomination or re-election
of McKinley. I was deeply op
posed to the Philippines, but I cannot
believe that I opposed McKinley for
President."
Warning From Morgan Denied.
"Don't you remember that you actu
ally did contribute $15,000 of that 25,
000 to this fund?"
"I do not recollect, but It may be so.
If you know the facta, I am sure It
was not against McKinley that I gave
the money, but against the acquisition
of the Philippines."
"Why, after contributing $15,000, did
you not continue with the other $10,
000?" Mr. McGilllcuddy continued.
"I don't recollect."
"Didn't soma of the Morgan people
come to you and tell you that It was
necessary to elect McKinley In order
to form the United States Steel Cor
poration?" "No such thing ever ocourred," Mr.
Carnegie answered, sharply.
"After McKinley was inaugurated in
March, 1901, and Philander C. Knox,
who had been attorney for your com
pany, waa made Attorney-General in
hla Cabinet la It not true that within
SO days your steel corporation actually
waa formed?" Mr. McGilllcuddy per
sisted. "Why do you say "your steel corpora
tion'?" Mr. Carnegie retorted. Impa
tiently. "I had nothing to do with the
Bteel Corporation. Never Invested a
cent In it. I merely sold my property."

SENATOR IS REMINISCENT
"Manny" Abrahams Grateful for
Permits Procured for Peddlers,
and Others Like Him, Com
mittee - Is Told.
WASHINGTON, Jmcu 1J. Senator
Lo rimer, of Illinois, In continuing his
testimony today before tha Senate In
vestigating committee, undertook to
explain the individual motives that
caused 10s members of the Illinois
Legislature to cast their ballots for
him.
"I've known that man all my Ufa,
probably since he was IS years old,
and he had gone through soma hard
knocks himself and felt aa if he wanted
to help someone else who had been
through It, too," was one of the an
swers he frequently gave. Some of his
explanations were timely stories of his
political life 30 years ago before he be
came a National figure.
"How did 'Manny' Abrahams come to
vote for you?" he was asked. Abra
hams is a Democrat and was called the
"bell-wether," because he led the vot
ing on the rollcall.
Peddlers Helped Long Age.
"Why, many years ago he was Just
beginning to be a leader among his
people in Chicago," responded the Sen
ator, "and many of them coming as
Immigrants tried to make a living
peddling on the streets. The license
fee was $5 a lot of money for a poor
man in a strange country and he used
to come to my house at night and ask
me to help them. So I used to get per
mits for them to peddle until they
made money enough to get out licenses.
That was the start of our friendship."
"How did Jandus come to vote for
you?"
. Jandus was another Democrat.
"I bad done him many little favors.
I remember having got a lob or so for
a poor friend of bis. I suppose in my
political life I got Jobs for 6000 or $000
men, but I don't remember all those
little things."
"What about Broderlck?"
Old Friends Are True.
"Why John I've known him for 15
years, and all his friends are friends
of my friends. He's been very kind to
me. Whenever I had a contest, he
would go and see some of his people.
He was always friendly to me."
"What about HolstlaW?" '
He was alleged to have made a con
fession that he received money to vote
for Lorimer.
"The first I remember of him was
before my election. He came and asked
me if I would be opposed to a post
master who was a saloonkeeper. I told
him I did not think a man's business
made any difference if he had a good
character and would make a good post
master. He went away saying: 'You
have the reputation of standing by
your friends, and I'm going to vgte for
you.' "
The votes of other men Senator Lori
mer explained by saving they were un
alterably opposed to Hopkins, wanted
to break the deadlock and go home,
had received favorable recommenda
tion of Lorimer from his constituents
or they wanted to give him substan
tial reward for his work In behalf of
the proposed "Lakes-to-the-Gulf water
way." Senator Attacks Newspapers.
Lorimer had got about half way
through the list of legislators who
voted for him when an adjournment
was taken until Monday morning.
Karller in' the day the Senator made
a dramatlo denial of any knowledge of
corruption in connection with his elec
tion, and In an equally dramatic way
charged that Governor Deneen and the
Chicago Tribune were forwarding a
conspiracy to drive him from the Sen
ate. "The real purpose of the fight on
Browne," said Lorimer. "is to unseat
me in the Senate. I lent him about
$10,000 with which to defend himself.
I never took his notes nor any se
curity because I felt that he was be
ing attacked on my account.
"I was convinced that the Tribune
had bought the testimony they used
against Browne. I am convinced that
the whole machinery of the State At
torney's office was used to destroy me
and not to put Browne In the peni
tentiary. I believe the Chicago Tribune
suborned the perjury of White, Becke
myer and Holstlaw, and I am con
vinced that neither Browne nor any
one else ever paid any money for a
vote for me. I think that "Governor
Deneen and the Tribune people were
in a conspiracy to get me out of the
Senate, and I believe Charles W.
White was bought and paid for."

HUMPHREY IS CONFIDENT

Political Enemies Expected to Pro

Made Public.
OREGOXIAN' NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington, Jan. 12. If present plans are
fulfilled. Representative Humphrey, of
Washington, will be appointed United
States District Judg-e for Western
Washington to succeed Judge Don
worth, who resigned. This fact became
public today, when It also became
known that Humphrey bas talked the
subject over with the President and has
been strongly Indorsed by Senator
Jones. Humphrey has strong backing
from friends of the administration In
Washington and confidently expects to
be nominated, but It had been hoped
to keep the determination quiet until
the nomination was sent to the Senate.
In his political career Mr. Humphrey
has made bitter enemies and the publi
cation of his probable appointment is
expected to bring forth many protests.
Senator Folndexter said tonight that
he had not been asked to submit any
recommendations for the vacant Judge
ship In Western Washington and. In
fact, had not been advised that any
vacancy existed. He therefore has
had no recommendation and was tin
willing to say what his attitude would
be In the event Humphrey Is -nominated.
Humphrey would not be Poln
dextera choice for this appointment, as
he represents the opposite Republican
faction, but the two men having served
together In Congress for several years,
Polndexter may waive any political ob
jection and offer no objection to con
firmation. He. however, is expected to urge the
appointment of some other man if an
opportunity is given him to do so.
