THE MORNING OREGON IAX. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1913. TAFT WOULD CARE FOR OLD CLERKS President Assails House for Attempting to Limit Tenure of Federal Employes. " PENSION PLAN ADVOCATED Appointments Irksome, Says . Taft, Who Also Says He Has Urged Con gress Three Times to Pnt AH Under Civil Service. BOSTON, Sept. 3. President Taft to night contrasted conditions that con fronted a President in the days of the spoils system with the system of ap pointment under the, civil service, at tacked the Democratic House of Rep resentatives for attempting to limit the tenure of Government employes, and declared that as long' as he had the power, no Government clerk would be discharged, unless the United States provided a system of civil service pen sions to keep him from want in his old age. The President spoke in Faneuil Hall to several hundred postofnce employes now in convention here. He said the job of President in these days Is not a thing of joy when appointments are considered, but in the time of Lincoln, he added, "it must have been a perfect hell." W ide Civil Service Urged. More than anything else he encoun tered in the White House, Sir. Taft said, the filling of vacancies that are not under the civil service had proved irk some and distasteful to him, and three times he had urged Congress to extend the blanket of the civil service to all Government employes. Mr. Taft motored in from Beverly three hours before his train left for "Washington tonight to speak to the clerks. He limped into Faneuil Hall with his right foot in bandages and in a loose felt slipper. The foot was in jured several years ago while Mr. Taft was olaving coif, and late yesterday he strained it again. He was able to stand without aid tonight and did not use a cane in walking. Taft Goea to Washington. At 8 o'clock tonight the President left for Washington to keep an engage ment tomorrow with the International Association of Applied Chemistry. . President Taft was wildly cheered when he entered Faneuil Hall tonight. Kepresentative Green, of Massachu setts, had preceded him and had praised the President for his. veto of the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill when it contained a provision to limit to seven years the tenure of civil service employes. The President began by praising the 'faithful, skillful, intelligent," em ployes of the Government who have built up the machine of Government in 125 years so that no matter what President or Cabinet officer or bureau chief leaves Washington for a vaca tion the public business goes on and the Government wheels still turn. C Mest I'nderpold, He Saya. "The charge has been made," he de dared, with a bang of his fist, "that Government employes are overpaid. That is not true. I know hundreds of men in Washington who are not com pensated within five times or even ten times of what they would have re ceived under modern conditions in other lines. I do not mean to say that I favor an advance in salaries of five or ten times what they get now, but the Government should assure these men of permanence of tenure and that they will be taken care of in their old age." The speaker explained that once he Tavored a system of straight out pen sions for Government employes. After observation of the working of this system abroad, however, he had come to the conclusion that It was not best and that it made for smaller salaries and less rapid advancement for the worthy. Enforced Penftlons Liked. ' "An now," he continued, "I believe fn a system that might be called an enforced system of pensions.' where the Government pays part and the em ployes contribute as well.'' Mr. Taft gave his reason for the veto of the legislative bill. He said that not only did he oppose it because it was unfair, but because it would have accomplished nothing but make the life of Congressmen and Presidents concerned in reappointments unbear able.

" The will of a tremendous majority was de feated by the power of a bad system and the -machinations of a committee. There la but one way to make sure that the system of the Chicago conven tion will be abolished and Its scenes never repeated, and that is to make it plain that the candidate who is the product of the system and the bene ficiary of the methods, cannot reach the office to which he aspires. There fore I cannot support Mr. Taft. "The reason the Republicans were so largely against the renominatlon of Mr. Taft was their profound convic tion that he is not a Progressive and does not believe in a proper sense that the people should rule the country. The fact that this was the attitude of the vast majority of the Ppublicans proves to me conclusively that a new partv is unnecessary, untimely and un fortunate. I fear that it will retard rather than hasten reform. Theodore Roosevelt was the manifest choice of the greater number of Republicans who expressed a choice for President.

Midsummer weather and its irresist ible mountain and seaside attractions to thousands of Portland residents have insufficient power to arrest the city's continued growth and prosper ity. v This is reflected irrefutably by the record of the Portland postoffice in the matter of receipts, exclusive of the money order department. For the month of August, the aggregate of stamp sales was $85,941.27, as com pared to 179.341.93 for the correspond ing week last year. This increase in receipts of $6599.34 represents a per centage gain of 8.32. which is regarded phenomenal at this season of the year. TAFT'S TITLE IS DISPUTED t nnimins lo Vote for Roosevelt, but Opposes Third Party. DES MOINF.S. Iowa, Sept.1 3. Sena tor Cummins, of Iowa, declared today he expected to vote for Colonel Roose velt for President, but Is opposed to the formation of a third party. He does not believe President Taft was the choice of the Republicans of the Nation. , "The renominatlon of President Taft." said Cummins, "was opposed by the overwhelming majority of the Re publicans through the country eimply because in his administration of the office of President he had not done or laid the things which the great body pf the people believed he should have done and said. A meager majority succeeded in renominating him.

Republican Chairman Makes No Claim to Exceptional Virtue, as He Complies With Law. NEW . YORK, Sept. 3. Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee, announced today that a complete record of all contri butions to the campaign fund of the Republican party would be made pub lic shortly after October 15. Mr. Hilles said that in making this announcement the Republican National Committee is not actuated by a desire to be regarded as virtuous, but took this course because the Congressional campaign fund publicity act, signed by President Taft on August 19, lsn. con tains specific provision that all Na tional committees must make public their campaign contributions not morej tnan 19 iays snu nut i... days prior to the elections. "The acting chairman ot tne uemo- cratic National Committee made a statement Tecently that the committee would publish campaign contributions prior to the election," Hilles continued. "He was patting himself on the back because he was voluntarily virtuous. As a matter of fact, the law which provides for publicity of contributions in Congressional elections is so gen eral and sweeping in its character that it compels publicity of all contnouuqns made for the purpose of influencing elections at which Representatives in Congress are elected." Acting Chairman jvicaqoo, oi Democratic National Committee, made thjs reply to Hilles statement: "In the present temper of the Ameri can people it is better to be over-virtuous than under-virtuous in the pub lication of campaign contributions. The decision of the Democratic National Committee to begin publishing the sources of all campaign contributions on the 10th of September was not for the purpose of being virtuous but for. the purpose of responding to the over whelming public sentiment which de mands that there shall be no conceal ment at any time during the campaign of the sources of political contribu tions."

The Colonel joined issue squarely with Governor Wilson, taking as his text the Democratic candidate's speech yesterday at Buffalo. He delivered his addresB before the Missouri Roosevelt Progressive state convention. The Colonel saw nothing of Governor Had ley. who remained at the state capital. The Colonel was asked to advise the state convention whether it should name a full state picket. "I feci that you ought to," he said. "I feel that except in those states in which we can take over bodily either of the old parties, we ought to run straight Progressive ticket." ComnlisloB System Advocated. In his SDeech Colonel Roosevelt said in part: When he comes to the tariff Mr, Wilson attempts to quote me, but he is singularly unsuccessful. . He states, for instance, that I am not concerned with the interests of the general tax payer, the general public. If he would take the trouble to read what I have said, or" to read our platform; he would find that the commission principle which we propose and to which he. and bis party are hostile, has for one of Its special objects the careful con sideration of the needs of the general public - "We are advocating the commission system, which has been tried in Ger many and which has been one of the pieces of government and Industrial mechanism that have been so extraor dinarily successful in building the great prosperity of the German empire, "I believe in protection; I believe that if Mr. Wilson's free trade policy or tariff for revenue only policy is in good faith, adopted and not merely treated as a campaign cry, widespread disaster will result. Colonel Dissents on Minimum Wage. "As to what Mr. Wilson says about the minimum wage I can only say that I disagree with him in toto. We are only advocating what we are sure can be done and ought to be done. Evi dently Mr. Wilson has not studied the conditions about the labor of women 'in many factories in big cities. "Mr. Wilson comes out squarely against our proposal to regulate the trusts. He has not anything to put in it p-ace except a statement that he stands 'by the great Democratic think ers who have made the Democratic platform on this subject. "Mr. Wilson is now Governor of New Jersey, and has been such for nearly two years.' If the Baltimore platform really offers any hope for the trust solution, why during these two years has nothing whatever been done by New Jersey under Mr. Wilson's lead or even attempted by Mr. Wilson in New Jersey for the regulation of the trusts? "The answer is because the states by themselves cannot meet the diffi culty, and It is pure toryism of the most backward kind to suppose that they can: and, incidentally, any such policy would have the grinning support of every lawbreaking trust. Direct Control la Sought. 'Mr. Wilson seems to forget that part of our programme is to give to the people themselves direct control over their own government that is. put over the governmental system and their agents of government. When the peo ple themselves thus effectively .control their own government, and the Govern ment in turn controls the big corpora tions, it seems to me the veriest folly to express apprehension lest, under such a system the chief employers, as Mr. Wilson says, because they have this tremendous authority behind them, may oppose the wage workers." Colonel Roosevelt, in concluding his speech, launched into a denunciation of John D. Archbold. "Archbold. when before the Senate committee, complained that the Stand ard Oil Company had been subjected to Abyssinian treatment by my Adminis tration," he said. "That s right They needed Abyssinian- treatment and I gave it to them, and if I am President again I am going to use those same Abyssinian methods of punishment whenever they are needed. "That's why Archbold is shedding tears and that's why he made that wail before the Senate committee. He knew what he could expect from me if he amd his corporation violated the law."

Greatly pleased with his reception in Western New York, Governor Wilson returned to New York today from Buffalo and passed on to Trenton to transact state business. The Governor said he regarded his speeches In Buffalo, especially the one at the evening mass meeting, as "set ting the stage for the- campaign," and as his "first political addresses.'' He was also pleased, ne saia. wnn the manner in which the crowds ap plauded his speech analyzing the third pr.rty platform. His altitude toward the third party, he said, was "that the social reforms proposed by its plat form are' admirable, but their method of performance is impossible." The Governor said he was looking forward to his SDeech in New York City tomorrow night before the Work ingmen's Woodrow Wilson League, his speech on next Monday before the New York Press Club and his address at the state Fair at Syracuse on September 12, which constitute, for the present, his New York State engagements. .Governor Wilson tomorrow will meet editors, writers and publishers of Ital ian.
