ROOSEVELT fi
AN
OFFERS SOLUTION
C. W. Ackerson Would Pu
Candidates in Field Against
Taft Enthusiasts.
NOMINEES' STAND KNOWN
Committees of Each Branch Could
Xante New Men for Places Xow
Sought by Those Who Are
Alligned With Opposition.
Growing sentiment among: leaders of
the Progressive party that there should
Te lines drawn between Republican
candidates on state and county tickets
who favor olonel Roosevelt and those
who favor President Taft, may result
in the naming- of a complete ticket in
Oregon before the new party finishes Its
work preliminary to the nnal election
campaign.
Following? the announcement of Dr.
Henry Waldo Coe. one of the delegates
to the Bull Moose convention, that he
considers something necessary along
that line, other leaders have publicly
announced a similar opinion. C W.
Ackerson. a delegate to the regular
Republican convention and a staunch
Roosevelt supporter, said yesterday
that he is going to urge the state and
county central committees to take the
stand urged by Dr. Coe.
"It Is my opinion that we should
know how the candidates who were
named- at the primary election stand,
said Mr. Ackerson yesterday. "I would
not be in favor of the party placing
a complete ticket in the field, but
would favor drawing lines between the
candidates who are out. giving our sup
port to those who favor Roosevelt and
putting men in the field against those
who are avowed Taft men.
Committee Should Decide.
Members of the committees know
how the nominees stand and I believe
the committee should decide what can
didates should be put out against the
present ones. Let action be taken
on what is known of the past records
of these men, is my Idea of how to
handle the proposition. If a candidate
does not stand for what we do, there
is no reason why we should give him
our support. If he does believe as we
do there is no reason for placing an
other man in the fleld against him.
"What we want is a Progressive
ticket from the President down to Con
stable In each county. If the present
Republican candidates are not pro
gressive we should get some who are.
Personally I know of some of the can
didates who are with us. I also know
of some who are not. I believe the
members of the central committees will
be able to weed out the undesirable
standpatters without doing any one an
injustice.
Dictation la Opposed.
"I do not believe in such action as
that taken recently by the Republican
Central Committee in sending the can
didates letters with clubs attached.
That is too much on the dictator order.
There is a way to get at the proposi
tion without the use of a club. That
way Is through the action of one or
the other of the central committees.
"Our idea Is to win the election. We
do not want to do anything locally that
will hurt the Roosevelt cause, but we
do want to make as clean a sweep for
the cause of progressiveness as is pos
sible. It is my lder that any Repub
lican who stands for progressive prin
ciples is good enough, for our support.
Any standpatters an. not good enough
and we should name someone who is."
PROGRESSIVES WILL RATIFY
Roosevelt Followers in Portland to
Meet Monday Xight.
At a mass meeting of Roosevelt fol
lowers to be held Monday night at the
East Side Library the nomination of
Colonel Roosevelt on the Progressive
ticket will be ratified with speeches,
music and a general progressive politi
cal celebration. The official call for
the meeting was issued yesterday by
Dan Kellaher, president of the Na
tional Progressive Club, and it is ex
pected there will be a good attend
ance. Invitations have been sent to
Roosevelt headquarters in all negh
borlng counties and many outsiders are
expected to be on hand.
It Is planned to hold the meeting
in the Washington High School build
ing If the library convention hall is not
large enough.
L. M. Lepper, secretary of the pro
gressive club, received the following
telegram yesterday from Dr. Henry
-Waldo Coe. a delegate at the Chi
cago convention:
"The earnestness of purpose of the
convention is a stirring inspiration.
Highest morality is today receiving a
baptism of real life which will make
the country a new Nation. The aspect
of 12.000 men, many doubtless who had
not voiced it since at their mother's
knee, repeating the Lord's prayer, was
an event full of significance. The
hour's ovation showed what faith and
love the people have ' for Roosevelt.
No one here questions the election of
Roosevelt in November. Reactionists
are now seeking to grasp the new
movement. Therefore urge that only
tried Rooseveltlans, free from local and
state ticket affiliations, are elected
county chairmen. Don't forget that the
enemies of progress, few as they are,
work at night."
Charles W. Ackerson. one- of the lead
ers In Oregon of the Roosevelt Bull
Moose party, was notified yesterday that
he had been selected as an assistant
sergeant-at-arms at the convention in
Chicago. The notification came from
edill McCormick. Mr. Ackerson was
unable to attend the convention be
cause of business affairs in Portland.
SELLING STANDS FOR TAFT
(Continued From First Page.)
bies. In 1909 when one Ormsby Mc
Harg came to Oregon to induce the
legislature to violate the will of the
people, I did everything In my power
to assist in electing the man our voters
had chosen to be United States Senator.
Today I am advocating and supporting
many reforms which in my opinion will
greatly improve conditions.
In my platform will be found a plank
favoring National primaries for the
nomination of our President and Vice
President. If elected to the United
States Senate I shsll use my utmost
endeavors to promote the passage of
this act. Then there will be no such
disputes and resulting bitternesses as
have followed the last National Re
publican convention. The people will
nominate their own President, free
from the many undesirable influences
which now affect the result under the
convention plan.
"In my platform there Is another Im
portant progressive plank. I refer to
the one in which I pledge my support
to an amendment to the Federal con
stitution, making United States Sena
tors elective directly by the people. A
reat reform cannot be brought about
over night. The people themselves
must demand these changes and In m
opinion they are now demanding the
Presidential primary.
Stands by the Party.
The Republican party has rendered
great service to the country. It has
not perhaps been right on all subjects.
Many things may not be satisfactory to
all Republicans, but we cannot all be
satisfied all of the time. There are
many things in the Roosevelt platform
which I have supported for years, and
I shall continue to support them. How
ever, I feel that the surest way to
bring about a reform is to support it
honestly at all times. I do not reel
that success in these reforms can be
hastened by forming a new party, but
better results can be secured, and se
cured at an earlier date, by reforming
the party from the inside, as has been
advocated by many other Progressives,
including such notable leaders of the
people as Senators La Follette, cum
mlns and Borah and Governor Hadley.
"Therefore, as the regular Republl
can nominee, honestly chosen by the
people of this state as such nominee,

Miss Jewell Is presenting her

process that she is able to cause
such life-like antics on the part
of her inanimate proteges.
Whatever secret It is that Miss
Jewell uses, it is the same one
that was discovered by her great
grandfather, and which has re

generations. Four men engaged
by Miss Jewell to present and

WATER TESTED, IS IMPURE
Bull Run Pipe Showed Contents to
Be Contaminated by Insects.
Recent investigations of the water in
Bull Run pipe at the Portland Yacht
Club have revealed the presence of bad
water, containing the larvae of mos
quitoes. Dr. C. H. Wheeler had the in-
pectlon carried out Tuesday as a re
sult of complaints of typhoid fever
along the river bank.
Samples of water taken by Dr. J. M.
Yates, of the Portland Yacht Club,
showed that the water had become con
taminated.
The pipes there are laid along the
bed of the river," said Dr. Wheeler.
'and become coated with slime and
mud. while sewage adds to the unpleas
ant character of that neighborhood.
Rubber hose is used to connect the
Joints of the pipes, and as a rule the
pressure of the water on the Inside
would be sufficient to keep out any
foreign water, even were a hole to
appear In the hose. When, however,
all the pipes are being used, the re
sistance is lessened, and In this way
bad river water must have forced an
entrance into the pipe."

(Continued From Pace 6.)
They talked constantly about vested inter
ests and were very hot. v
It is a happy omen that their attitude
has changed. They eee that what is right
can hurt no man; that a new adjustment
of Interests is inevitable and deslrab'.e. Is
in the interest of everybody: that their own
honor, their own lntelllg-ence, their own
practical comprehension of affairs Is ln
rolved. They are beginning to adjust their
business tonew standards. Their hand is
no longer against the Nation; they are part
of It. their interests are bound up with its
interests. This is not true of all of them.
but it is true of enough of them to show
what the new age is to be and how the
anxieties of statesmen are to be eased, if
the light that la dawning broadens into day.
If 1 am right about this, it is going to
be easier to act in accordance with the rule
of right and Justice in dealing wAh the
labor question. The so-called laLor ques-
tion Is a question only because we have not
yet found the rule of right in adjusting
the Interests or labor ana capital. The wel
fare, the happiness, the energy and spirit
of the men and women who do the dally
work In our mines and factories, on our
railroads. In our ofAces and marts of trade,
on our farms and on the sea. Is of th
essence of our National life. There can be
nothing wholesome unless their life is
wholesome; there can be no contentment
unless they are contented. Their physical
welfare affects the soundness of the whole
Nation. We shall never ret very far in
the settlement of these vital matters
long as we regard everything done for the
working man, by law or by private agree
ment, as a concession yielded to keep hlra
from agitation and a disturbance of our
peace. Here, again, the. sense of universal
partnership must come into play if we are
to act like statesmen, as those who serve.
not a class, but a nation.
The working people of America If they
must be distinguished from the minority
that constitutes the rest of It are, of course,
the backbone of the Nation. No law that
safeguards their life, that Improve the phys
ical and moral conditions under which they
live, that makes their hours of labor ra
tional and tolerable, that gives them free
dom to act In their own interest and that
protects them where they cannot protect
tnemseives, can properly be regarded
class legislation or as anything but as
measure taken in the interest of the whole
people, whu46 partnership In right action we
are trying to establish and make real and
practical. It is in this spirit that we shall
act if we are genuine spokesmen of the
whole country.
Mere Bankers' Plan Insufficient.
As our programme Is disclosed for no
man can forecast It ready-made and before
counsel Is taken of every one concerned
this -must be its measure and standard,
the Interest of all concerned. For examola.
In dealing with the complicated and dif
ficult question of tbe reform of our bank
ing and currenoy laws, it is plain that we
ought to consult very many persons be
sides the bankers, not because we distrust
the bankers, but because they do not neces
sarily comprehend the business of the
country, notwithstanding they are indis
pensable servants of it and may do a vast
deal to make it hard or easy. No mere
bankers' plan will meet the requirements,
no matter bow honestly conceived. It
should be a merchants' and farmers' plan
as well, elastic in the hands or those who
use It as an Indispensable part of their
daily business. I do not know enough about
this subject to be dogmatic about It, I
know only .enough to be sure what the
partnerships in it should be. and that the
control exercised over any system we may
set up should be, so far as possible, a con
trol emanating, not from a single special
class, but from the general body and au
thority of the Nation Itself.
In dealing with tbe Philippines, we should
not allow ourselves to stand uoon anv mere
point of pride, as if. In order to keep our
countenance In the families of nations, it
were necessary for us to make the same
blunders of selfishness that other nations
have made. We are not the owners of the
Philippine Islands. We hold them In trust
tor the people who live In them. Thev are
theirs, for the uses of their life. We are
not even -.their partners. It is our duty
as trustees to make whatever arrangement
of government will be most serviceable to
their freedom and development. Here,
again, we are to set up the rule of Justice
and right.
The rule of the Deople is no Idle nhrase.
those who believe in It, as who does not
that has caught the real spirit of Amer
ica? believe that there can be no rule of
right without it: that rieht in nolltics is
made up of the interests of everybody, and
veryooay snouia take Dart In the action
that is to determine it. We have been keen
for Presidential primaries and the direct
election of United States Senators, because
we wanted the action of the Government to
be determined by persons whom the neODle
had actually designated as men whom they
were ready to trust and follow. We have
been anxious that all campaign contribu
tions and expenditures should be disclosed
to the public in fullest detail, because we
regarded the Influences which govern cam
paigns to be as much a part of the peo
ple's business as anything else connected
with their government. We are working
towards a very definite object, the univer
sal partnership In public affairs upon which
the purity of politics and Its aim and
spirit depend.
for mere Is much for the partners to
undertake. In the affairs of a great na
tion we plan and labor, not for the nresent
only, but for the long future as well. There
are great tasks of protection and con
servation and development to which we
have to address ourselves. Government has
much more to do than merely to right
wrongs and set the house in order.
I do not know any greater Question than
that of conservation. We have been a
spendthrift Nation and must now husband
what we have left. We must do more than
that. We must develop, as well as pre-'
serve, our water powers and- must add
great waterways to the transportation fa
cilities of the Nation, to supplement the
railways within our borders as well as upon
the Isthmus. We must revive our merchant
marine, too, and fill the seas again with
our own fleets. We must add to our pres
ent postofflce service a parcels post as com
plete as that of any other nation. we
must look to the health of our people upon
every hand, as well as hearten them with
ustlce and opportunity. This is the con
structive work of government. This is the
policy -that has a vision and a hope and
that looks to serve mankind.
Real Conservation vs Ievelopment.
There are many sides to these great mat.
ters. Conservation Is easy to generalise
about, but hard to particularize about wise-
Reservation is not the whole of con
servation. The development of great states
must not be stayed indefinitely to await a
policy by which our forests and water
powers can prudently be made use of. Use
and development must go hand In hand.
The policy we adopt must be progressive.
not negative, merely, as ir we did not know
what to do.
With regard to the development of
greater and more numerous waterways and
the building up of a merchant marine, we
must foUow great constructive lines and not
fall back upon the cheap device of boun
ties and subsidies. In the case of the Mis
sissippi River, that great central artery of
our trade. It is plain that the Federal Gov
ernment must build and maintain the levees
and keepNthe great waters in harness for
the general use. It Is plain, too, that vast
sums of money must be spent to develop
new waterways where trade will be most
served and transportation most readily
:heanenel by them. Such expenditures are
no largess on the part, of the Government;
they are National investments.
The auestlon of a mercnant marine turns
back to the tariff again, to which all roads
seem to lead, and to . our registry laws,
which. If coupled with the tariff, might al
most be supposed to have been Intended to
take the American flag off the seas. Boun
ties are not necessary. If you will but undo
some of the things that have been done.
Without a great merchant marine we can
not take our rightful place In the commerce
of the world. Merchants who must depend
pon the carriers of rival mercantile nations
to carry their goods to market are at a
disadvantage in International trade too man-
If est to need to be pointed out; and our
merchants will not long suffer themselves
ought not to suffer themselves to db
placed at such a disadvantage. Our indus
tries have expanded to such a point that
they will burst their Jackets, If they can
not find a free outlet to the markets of
the world: and they cannot find such an
outlet unless they be given ships of their
own to carry their goods ships that will
rn tha rnntM thev want them to go and
prefer the Interests of America in their
nilln crdera and their equipment. Our
domestic markets no longer suffice. We need
fnreiirn markets. That is another force
that is going to break the tariff down.
The tariff was once a bulwark; now it it
a dam. For trade is reciprocal; we caijnot
sell unless we also buy.
Ships Should Follow Canal.
The very fact that we have at last taken
the Panama Canal seriously in nana anu
are vigorously pushing it toward comple
tion la floauent of our reawakened interest
in International trade. We are not building
the canal and pouring out minion upon
million of money upon its construction
merely to establish a water connection be
tween the two coasts of the continent, im
portant and desirable as that may be, par
ticularly from the point of view of naval
defense. It is meant to be a great Inter
national highway. It would be a little ri
diculous if we should build It and then
have no ships to send through it. There
have been years when not a single ton of
freight passed through the great Sues Canal
In an American bottom, so empty are the
seas of our ships and seamen. We must
mean to put an end to that kind of thing
or we would not be cutting a new canal at
our very doors merely for the use of -our
men-of-war. We shall not manage the
revival by the mere paltry device of tolls.
We must build and buy ships in competition
with the world. We can do It it we will
but give ourselves leave.
Theer is another duty which the Demo
cratic party has shown Itself great enough
and close enough to the people to peroelve,
the duty of Government to share in pro
moting aericulturak industrial, vocational
education in every way possible within its.
constitutional powers. No other platlorm
has given this Intimate vision of a party's
duty. The Nation cannot enjoy its de
served supremacy In the markets and enter-
Drises of the world unless its people are
given the ease and effectiveness that come
only with Knowledge ana training. Educa
tion la part of the great task of conserva
tion, part of the task of renewal and of
perfected power.
We have set ourselves a great programme
and it will be a great party that carries it
out. It must be a party without entangling
alliances with any special Interest whatever.
Men are turning away from the KepuDiican
party, as organised under its old leaders,
because they found it was not free, that it
was entangled;' and they are turning to us
because they deem us free to serve them.
They are immenselylnterested, as we are, as
every man wno reaus tue signs ui me tunc
and feels the spirit or tn new age is, in
the new nrogramme. It is solidly based on
the facts of our National life; its Items are
items of present business: It Is what every
man should wish to see done who wishes to
see our present distempers made an end of
and our old free, co-operative life restored.
We should go into this campaign connaent
of only one thing confident of what we
want to do if entrusted with the Govern
ment. It Is not a partisan fight we are
terlna- uDon. w e are happily excused irom
personal attacks upon opponents and from
all general Indictments against the men
opposed to us. The facts are patent to
everybody; we do not have to prove them;
the more frank among our opponents admit
them. Our thinking must be constructive
from start to finish. We must show that
we understand the problems that confront
us and that we are soberly minded to deal
with them, applying to them not nostrums
and notions, but hard sense and good cour
age. No Man Is Indispensable.
A Presidential campaign may easily de
generate into a mere personal contest and
lose Its real dignity ana signincance.
There la no indispensable man. The Gov
ernment will not collapse and go to pieces
If anv one of the gentlemen who are seek
ing to be entrusted with its guidance should
be left at home. But men are instruments.
We are as Important as the cause we rep
resent, and In order to be important must
really represent a cause. What is our cause?
The people's cause? That is easy t. say,
but what does It mean? The common as
against any particular interest whatever?
Yes. but that, too, needs translation ini-i
acts and policies. We represent the desire
to set up an unentangled government, a
government that cannot be used for private
purposes, either In me iieid oi Dusiness or
in the field of politics; a government that
will not tolerate the use of the organiza
tion of a great party to serve the personal
aims and ambitions of any individual, and
that will not Dermlt legislation to be em
nloved to further any nrlvate interest. It is
a great conception, but I am free to serve it,
as you also are. I could not have accepted
nomination which lert me bound to any
man or any group of men. No man can
be lust who Is not free; and no man wno
has to show favors ought to undertake the
solemn responsibility of government in any
rank or nost whatever, least of all in the
supreme post of President of the United
states.
To he free is not necessarily to be wise.
Rut w ladom comes with counsel, with the
frank and free conference of untrammeled
men united In the common interest. Should
I be entrusted with the great oinco oi pres
ident, I would seek counsel wherever it
could be had upon free terms. I know the
temner of the treat convention which nomi
nated me; I know the temper of the coun
try that lay back of that convention and
spoke through it. I heed with deep thank
fulness the message .du orine me ii-uiu ii.
r feel that I am surrounded by men whose
principles and ambitions are those of true
servants oi tne people, x iuo.ua. wu.
