Are Opposing Speakers
.at Crystal Lake.
TWO PARTIES ARE GRILLED
Ex-Governor West Gives Address
and Picnic Dinners and Sports
Enliven Pleasant Day's
Outing.
Republican and Democratic principles
were summarized yesterday at the
Labor day picnic of the United Artisans
held during the afternoon and evening
at Crystal Lake Park. Party plat
forms were explained by representa
tives of the opposing factions. Colonel
Robert A. Miller, speaking: for the
Democrats, and Senator Gus C. Moser
Betting: forth the opinions of the Re
publicans. The addresses were made in the form
of a debate, each speaker being given
26 minutes in which to introduce his
subject and then being- allowed five
minutes in which to answer the op
posing speaker.
The events of the day centered about
the Labor day address of ex-Governor
Oswald West, who was speaker of the
day. Judge W. N. Gatens also spoke.
The usual programme of a large out
ing was followed through, and pie
eating contests, sack races and other
contests furnished amusement for a
multitude. A baseball game waa held
during the afternoon and dancing wee
carried on in the pavilion during the
afternoon and evening. The attendance
Was estimated at more than 1000.
Debate Attracts Attention.
The discussion between Senator Moser
and Colonel Miller attracted much at
tention. Each speaker was liberally
applauded.
Senator Moser In opening the discus
sion, reviewed the economic history of
America from 1888, when Cleveland was
elected, down to August, 1914, when
the European war opened. He declared
that souphouses and smokeless stacks
were the price of Democratic adminis
tration of tha American Government,
and that the balance of trade between
Europe and America, which stood at
$1,000,000 a month when Wilson was
elected, was less than nothing when
the European war broke out.
He attributed the decrease In the
price of Portland real estate in the last
three years and the shutting down of
nearly all the shingle mills in Wash
ington and Oregon to the present Dem
ocratic Administration because it was
impossible "to keep them going and
pay American workmen American
wages and compete with the Hindu and
Japanese laborers of British Columbia."
Pledge Declared Broken.
He asserted that although the Demo
cratic platform had pledged its candi
date to a single term, that a month be
fore his inauguration. President Wil
ion bad repudiated this plank In a
personal letter that the Democratic
promises had proved false hopes to
the American people. He pointed par
ticularly to the pledges for free toll's
through the Panama Canal; lower cost
of living and practically all pledges
except that for a tariff for revenue
only which, the speaker said, was the
only pledge redeemed, "to the ever
lasting sorrow of the American people."
Colonel Miller, in replying, said that
his opponents put the dollar above the
man when they talked about the tariff.
He referred to the trust barons several
times and expressed the hope that his
hearers would raise up daughters that
would marry Americans and not for
eign Dukes.
He then entered Into a discussion of
William Jennings Bryan's 16-to-l free
silver policy, asserting, as he held up
a silver half dollar, that Wall street or
some of the big fellows had really
"put it over" the people because money
was still coined at a ratio of 16 to 1,
the same as back in 1872.
Ex-Governor West, in his address,
extolled social service politics, while
Judge Gatens made a strong talk In
behalf of kindness toward the young
girl who had gone wrong. He said
that Instead of being shut out by her
parents that she should be taken to
their hearts.
DYESTUFF TARIFF OPPOSED
Underwood Maintains Duty for Pro
tection Is Not Democratic.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 4. Senator Un
derwood today began an attack on
the proposed increased tariffs on dye
stuffs designed to encourage American
manufacture of those products. Speak
ing on his motion to strike out the
proposals from the general revenue bill.
Senator Underwood said he was op
posed to them on fundamental grounds.
"This bill proposes vastly higher tar
iffs on dyestuffs." he said, "than ever
was contemplated before. Enactment of
these schedules would be a recognition
of the principle that we should write
a protective tariff to build up Amer
ican industry, whereas the Democratic
party has stood for tariffs for revenue
only."

Underwood Act Fayori Importation
of Foreign Product Farmer
Lose by Ruling.
How the Democratlo tariff will work
havoc with the cherry industry of the
Northwest as soon as the war permits
the foreign fruit to enter the country,
is explained graphically by W. H. Paul
hamus, organizer of the Puyallup Fruit
growers' Association one of the most
successful co-operative concerns of the
kind lni the country in a letter to C.
D. Babcock. publicity agent for the
Hughes campaign committee in Port
land. "I believe," says Mr. Paulhamus,
"that I can cite you to one Instance in
the Underwood tariff that should turn
every single farmer Jn the Northwest
against the Democratic party.
"For example, growers of Royal Ann
cherries, residing in Italy, can supply
our American markets at much less per
pound than the Oregon cherry growers.
"The great trouble is that the pres
ent Democratic administration has
ruled that cherries shipped to America
in a sulphur solution are not preserved
cherries, therefore not entitled to pay
duty. ,
"Our Italian competitors are willing
to deliver their cherries in brine f. o. b.
Chicago and f. o. b. Cincinnati at about
2 cents per pound less than our Oregon
growers can deliver their Royal Ann
cherries to the same markets in the
same package and make a profit on
them."
