E ELLIS
ON ISSUES
(Continued from Past 1 )
terlal are talking of the Republican
panic of 1907. I do not personally
consider It a commercial panic but
merely regard It as a financial flurry
that has passed over. But If tho
Democrats want to call it a panic, let
us compare a Republican panic with
a Democratic panic. In 1893, dur
ing the last Democratic administra
tion, we had a Democratic panic. All
of you know about the experiences of
1893, 1895 and part of 1896. Men
were out of work, prices were low
and the country was in a bad way
generally. Just as soon as McKlnley
and a Republican congress were
elected, times began to improve and
continued until the high water mark
of prosperity was reached sometime
ago. Compare the conditions of 1893
and the few years following with the
present year and 1907, when the
Democrats say we had a Republican
panic!
"Another point on which the two
parties differ is tho monetary ques
tion. I contend that we have the
best banking system the world has
ever known. But for sake of com
parison, we will go back to the last
time the Democrats tried to revise
our financial system. It was in Bu
chanan's administration In 1857. The
value of money was always In doubt.
It was a question when a man was
paid as to whether the money he re
ceived would be worth anything by
the time he reached home. For in
stance under It, a man paid out here
in the logging camp in currency that
was good when he received would
find when he reached town that it
was worthless. As to financial con
ditions today, you know that Ameri
can money is good everywhere, so
good that an American dollar will
buy two Mexican dollars.
"Another point, the parties differ
on is the bank deposit guarantee and
the postal savings bank. The Demo
crats insist on a bank deposit guar-'
antee. This Is generally recognized
as a menace to the conservative
banker In favor of the speculative
banker, making the conservative
institutions responsible for the
wrong doings of the other class In
the bank business. The postal sav
ings bank which the Republican
party advocates and will probably
be adopted eliminates this discrimin
ation against the conservative bank
ers. It provides that the government
will accept deposits and pay two per
cent Interest on them. The govern
ment is behind every deposit so there
can be no loss. The purpose of the
postal savings bank Is to provide a
means of preventing people hiding
their money during financial flur
ries, withdrawing their deposits In
coin or currency and burying it.
With the government guaranteeing
It In the postal savings bank, In
stead of hiding It when they might
withdraw it from tho regular bank
ing institutions for any reason or
other, they would place It in the
postal savings bank.
"Some criticism of Judge Taft has
been offered on account of his alleg
ed unfriendliness to labor. Judge
Taft is a friend of labor. He wants
to give every man a fair show wheth
er he Is capitalist or laborer. It is
true that while on the bench he Is
sued a few Injunctions, but every
judge who has ever been on tho
bench has had to Issue injunctions.
Another thing for the laboring men
to consider along this line is the
policy of the Republican and Demo
cratic parties towards labor. The
Republican party has ndopted the
child labor law, the employers' lia
bility law, the law compelling rail
roads to install safety appliances,
etc. Then take it by states. For
every law favorablo to labor that tho
Democratic party has placed on tho
statutes that can be shown me, I
will show you two that Republicans
have adopted. Tho northern states
which aio generally Republican have
many laws favorablo to labor but
tho southern states where the Demo
cratic party is in power have prac
tically none.
"Some criticism has been offered
of tho Republican party for tho largo
appropriations made by tho last con
gress. It has been called a billion
dollar congress, but I want to toll
you we have a billion dollar country
and I think we are all proud of it.
Tho country Is growlug nud so must
its expenses. Tho movement to se
cure an annual appropriation of $50,
000,000 for our waterways and har
bors is ono in which I am greatly In
favor. It will enablo the develop
ment of tho Inland streams and the
improvement of tho harbors Ilka
Coos Bay.
"A greater navy Is also a need of
tho country. I am on that commit
tee and I voted for four battleships,
but we only secured two. Battle
ships cost lots of money but I am in
favoring of Increasing the navy so
that we can have a navy on the Pncl
fic coast as well as on the Atlantic
coast.
"The Democrats also charge the
Republicans with being in league
with the trusts and corporations. An
examination of the records will show
you that the only trust prosecutions
have been made by Republican ad
ministration, yet the Democrats did
not attempt to enforce them. Tho
Republican party does not believe In
working any hardships on the cor
porations and favors giving them
equal rights and privileges with
others but no special privileges. The
corporations, especially the railroads,
are doing great work in developing
the country and are entitled to the
same protection as is accorded any
citizen."
During his entire talk, Judge Ellis
did not mention the name of Presi
dent Roosevelt or refer to the Rdose
velt administration.
In the course of his remarks,
Judge Ellis paid a great tribute to
Coos Bay. He said that he had
found the country's possibilities even
greater than he had been lead to be
lieve they were by the reports he had
heard of It.
Tonight, Judge Ellis will speak at
North Bend, Wednesday night at
Myrtle Point, Thursday night at Co
qullle and Friday night at Bandon.
He will return to Pendleton Satur
day. During last night's program, the
Acme band rendered several fine
selections and were roundly applaud
ed. The Crescent quartette composed
of Messrs. Travers, Dodge, Sumner
and Doll sang a number of campaign
songs and were eqcored several
times. In closing, the audience, lead
by C. J. Mlllls, united in singing
"America."
