THE MOKAIMG OliEGOSIAS, SATUKUAl, OCiOlixw iA VISION SUSTAINED PARTY,SAYSWiLSDN Candidate Declares Democ racy Is Awaiting Attention of American People. INTRODUCTION IS MADE Speaking at Cleveland, Candidate Says Organization Has Been Pre served From Alliance With Special Privilege. CLEVELAND. O- Oct. 11. "The vis ion of the Democratic party," which he declared had preserved It from alliance with and domination by special privi lege, was the burden of an address here tonight by Governor Woodrow 'Wilson. He performed what he designated as a ceremony of introduction of the Demo cratic party to some of his hearers who "are not well acquainted with it." and after an explanation of what he con tended were its principles, expressed the hope that the introduction had been successful. "It has been here all along." he said, "but you weren't paying any atten tlon. Yon are Just now beginning to take notice, because there was a solid phalanx, a solid organized rush line, between you and the horizon. The whole horizon was shut out from you by the towering figures of men wh held closely and firmly together order to dominate the situation. But now their lines are broken, a little bit of the horizon can be glimpsed, and be yond these towering figures you see the great resurgent mass of the Ameri can people; and you see certain gentle men, I hope modest gentlemen, tryin to speak for them, saying: ' 'We have been waiting for your at tention for a long time; now will you be kind enough to listen? Will you be kind enough to realise what our ideals are? Will you be kind enough to open your eyes to the vision whish has led us on through dark days for whole generation?' " Where Spirit Finds Its Food. "For we would not have carried this burden of exile if we had not seen vision. We could have traded; we could have got into the game; we could have surrendered and made terms; we, could have played the role of patrons' to the men who wanted to dominate the interest of the country and here and there gentlemen who pretended to be Democrats did make those arrangements. I could mention some of them; I have known them. They couldn't stand the privation. There was too little in It. You neve can stand it unless you have some im perishable food within you upon which to sustain life and courage, the food of those visions of the spirit where a ta ble is set before you loaded with pala. table fruits, the fruits of hope, the fruits of imagination those invisible things of the spirit which are the only things upon which we can carry our selves through this weary world with out fainting. "i want to Introduce you to the present Democratic party," he con tinued, "a party that has come through fire, has been purified, has been shown such errors as it has committed in past years, and Is now absolutely and enthusiastically united upon a progres sive programme, a platform such as the whole country now desires to see car ried out. That is the new Democratic party, new because it never grows old new because the principles in which it is rooted and grounded never can grow old. This is the party which is now being questioned with regard to its purposes by the leaders of parties which are either breaking up or have not yet attained to the bone and sinew of manhood. Free Trade Ancient Boary, "These gentlemen are saying: 'If you give power to the Democrats you will run into evil days. For one thing you will have free trade.' Ah, that ancient bogy! How long will they continue to dress this thing of their imagination in the old clothes of antiquated stump orators? There cannot be free trade tlie United States so long as the estab. lished fiscal policy of the Feneral Gov ernment is maintained. The Federal Government has chosen throughout all the generations that have preceded us to maintain Itself chiefly on Indirect in terest of direct taxation. I dare say we shall never see a time when it can alter that policy In any substantial de trree: and there is no Democrat of pru ' dence or thoughtf ulness that I have met who contemplates a programme of free trade. "But what w have been doing, and what we intend to do, what the House of Representatives has been attempting to do and will attempt to do again, and succeed, is to weed this garden of in dustry that we have been cultivating. If we have been laying at the roots of our industrial enterprises, this fertili zation of protection, we have found that the stimulation was not equal in respect of all the growths in the Bar. den, and that there are some growths which every man can distinguish with the naked eye, which have so over topped the rest, which have so thrown the rest into destroying shadow, which it is impossible for the industries of the Limed States as a whole to pros per under their desolating obstruction. We are going into our garden, there fore, and weed It. We are going to give the little plants air and light in which to grow. We are going to pull tip every root that has so spread Itself as to draw all the nutriment of the soil from the other plants. We are going to see to It that fertilization of intelli gence, of invention, of origination, is once more applied to a set of Indus tries now threatening to be stagnant, because threatening to be too much concentrated. Certalaffy of Law Demanded. "The difference between the Demo cratic and the Republican parties, or ratner Between tne .Democratic party and those various other groups and parts of parties that are masquerading - under all sorts of names is that they are willing to accept the discretionary power of individuals and we are not willing to accept anything except the certainty of law. That is the orily thing that has ever aforded salvation or safety. "I want to draw a few Illustrations. There is the great policy of conserva tion, for example; and I do not con ceive of conservation in' any narrow sense. There are the lives and for tunes of the citizens of the United States to be conserved. Conservation covers not only forest reserves and forest cultivation and the safeguarding of water powers and mines, but it In cludes pure food and the public health and the conditions of labor and all those things which government must see to minutely and . courageously, if we are not to be sapped of our vital ity and disappointed of our hopes. Now. the thing that stands in the way of the proper policy of conservation and makes it impossible to form that pol icy is that the government of the United States is now under the Influ ence of men who want to control the forests, control the water courses, con trol the mines, who will not admit that these are public properties whicli we hold In trust for future generations as well as for ourselves, and who are resisting the efforts of those of us who would extend the threads of law all through those industrial, processes which threaten our resources and threaten our lives and vitality. Donbta to Be Removed. "Then there Is the matter of the reg ulation of the hours of labor, of the conditions of labor, the question of the sanitation of factories, of the limita tion of the hours of work for women and children, of the limitation of hours for men. questions which are in part state questions but also in part Fed eral questions. All of these matters have to be treated by knowledge and pursued by a constancy of purpose which no special interests ought to be allowed to stand in the way of. The government of the United States under the Democratic party will attempt to put all through this Nation the struc tural steel of law, so that no man can doubt what his rights are, or doubt the stability of the thing that he is walking on. "All over the country we are facing the same problem. It is a problem not of revolution but of readjustment. What I want to suggest to you is that the only basis, the only standard, of readjustment proposed or suggested by our opponents is the standard of ex pediency, and that only the Democratic party offers a standard of principle. The expediency of the situation is merely to see to it that those wno receive special privileges behave them selves, whereas our principle is that nobody ought to receive or retain spe cial privileges at all that every spe cial privilege shall be destroyed, not with a ruthless hand, not in such fash ion as suddenly to upset the conditions of business, but nevertheless with the firmness and kindness of the Judicious parent. For the Government of the United States at present is a mere foster child of the special interests. It is not allowed to have a will of its own. It Is told at every move, 'Don't do that. You will interfere with our prosperity.' When we ask, 'where is our prosperity lodged,' a certain group of gentlemen say: 'With us.' Nation Needs no Guardian. "Now, I for my part, don't want to belong to a Nation, and take leave prettily to believe that I do not be long to a Nation, that needs to be taken care of by guardians. I want to belong to a Nation that knows how to take care of Itself. "It would seem as If America were about to see a generation grow up which must be a generation of em ployes, unless it makes up its mind to be a generation of masters. "The great militant, fighting, tri umphant America the world has known and admired is a Nation of officers, a Nation of men who are their own masters, a Nation of men who will originate their own processes of in dustry and of life, and we shall never see the day, I confidently predict, where America will allow itself to be employed and patronized and taken -care of." LOB DEFENDS SELF DEPOSED SENATOR TO DEVOTE LIFE TO VINDICATION. Lecture Tour to Be Made in Effort to Rehabilitate' Himself in State Politically. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11. (Special.) William Lorimer, deposed Senator from Illinois, Is going to devote the rest of his life. If necessary, to an effort to vindicate himself before the American people.

She will carry freight and passengers be tween Pacific Coast ports. INDIANAPOLIS, Oct 11. "J. B. Brlce, Chicago," the name James B. McNamara used to disguise bis inten tion to cause explosions on the Pa cific Coast, and particularly in Los Angeles, formed an Important point in the testimony at the "dynamite con spiracy" trial today. As tending to sustain its contention that the explosions were part of a conspiracy for the illegal Interstate shipment of dynamite. Involving the 45 men now on trial, the Government indicated it would go thoroughly into the explosions in the West possibly throwing light on the mysterious dis appearance of F. A. Schmltt and Da vid Caplan, accused as accomplices of McNamara. Caplan and Schmltt were Indicted in Los Angeles on a charge of murder, but they never were dis covered. Government agents have re ceived information that Caplan was killed. Witnesses reading from hotel regis ters testified concerning the move ments of McNamara, Schmltt, Caplan and Olaf A. Tveitmoe, of San Fran cisco. McNamara's Movements Traced. From the time he arrived in San Francisco, August 19, 1910, until he left Los Angeles, a few hours before the Los Angeles Times explosion, Mc- Namara's whereabouts, with the ex ception of a few nights, were ac counted for by the name "Brlce," writ ten on the register. It was this alias which John J. McNamara said his brother had used too often, as after the explosion "the authorities had a pretty good description of Brlce," George A. Dixon, assistant manager of a San Francisco hotel, produced records of "Brlce's" arrival there Au gust 19, the day before an explosion in Oakland. August 30 he was traced to Seattle, where he sought from J. . Wagner, teacher in a technical school, information on how to create a spark without the use of a fulminat ing cap. Eugene A. Clancy, another labor leader in San Francisco, was in Seattle at that time, the Government asserts. The next day an office build ing under construction in Seattle was blown up. Telephone Calls Recorded. Reading from a hotel register, Mr. Dixon told of "Brice's" reappearance in San Francisco, September 14, after he had lived for ten days in a boarding house. Soon after Mr. Dixon testified, Brice appeared with "Perry," alias Schmltt. They occupied the same room. Records of telephone calls from Mc Namara's room also were produced. These calls, according to the Govern ment's attorneys, concerned the prep arations .for procuring the explosive that later were taken to Los Angeles. Caplan then appeared on the scene and the house in San Francisco, at 165 Nineteenth avenue, where later a quan tity of nitro-glycerine was found, was rented. falter L. Smith, clerk in a hotel in Los Angeles, identified the signature of "A. Tveitmoe" as that of a patron who was in Los Angeles before ".Brice" ar rived the last time. Curt A. Dicelman, clerk In anothc: hotel In Los Angeles, said he had a con versation with "Brice." who registered there September 29. That was the set ond day before the Los Angeles ex plosion. "The next night," testified Dicelman, "I talked to Brice. I noticed he was registered from Chicago, and I asked him how things were out there. He told me he was going to San Fran cisco that night and wanted to know whether he would have to pay for an other night because he was going to remain until 7 o'clock. He checked out at 7 o'clock." At 1 o'clock the next morning the explosion occurred. Acordlng to telegrams produced by the Government McNamara was 200 miles away, en route-to Salt Lake City, where, it ls charged, he was kept in hiding by J. E. Munsey, a former busl ness agent of the Ironworkers' Union, who telegraphed on to Indianapolis: "Patient out of danger. Henry Dobberah identified a photo graph of James B.
