AGB EIGHT ASRLAXD TTDIKOS Ste Months Ag'o We Started ......... . . . flionOAy. September 15, 1813 I 1 II Started to prepare for this, our Fall Opening Campaign: Way back in March we were busy searching, examining, selecting the lines of Clothing and Furnishings offered by the country's greatest manufacturers, for it is only by working months in advance that the cream of the cream of merchandise can be secured. Here are the things we looked for in Clothing: First of all-VALUE-clothes which represent one hundred cents worth for every dollar expended. After value we looked for STYLE - not freak style or extreme style, but the sort of style that well-dressed men in New York and Chi cago have created. Having found value and style combined in MICHAELS-STERN CLOTHES we proceeded to buy dozens, of different models and patterns, so that OUR ASSORTMENT OF FALL AND WINTER SUITS AND OVERCOATS IS ABSOLUTELY UNAPPROACHED BY ANY OTHER STORE IN THIS SECTION OF THE STATE. Having worked diligently and well, we take a natural pride in the merchandise we offer for your inspection, and we want to tell you a few details about these HL G.

La Follette broke down, and for the time was unable to continue hi campaign. It wa3 useless to hope that he could win the confidence of the people enough to secure the nomination after that episode. Roosevelt was forced to the front. and was the only candidate possible who had the slightest chance of win ning. "It Is not necessary to go into de tails of the republican convention of 1912. We have the satisfaction of knowing that great good has come out of what must cause us as Amer icans to hang our heads with shame. It was better to have a new party, a party with a background of which we need not be ashamed; a party not torn in two by differences of opinion bo great as to render it im possible ever to become or remain nnited. "We believe that the tariff should be taken out of politics. We stand, therefore, for a permanent nonpar tisan tarjtf commission, which shall study the conditions abroad and in America, and, by a tariff imposed, bring the cost of tlie foreign made article to the cost of the American made article, thereby insuring free competition in price and no compe tition in labor. "We declare the problem of the trusts is more than a tariff problem. It demands a strong federal control with full publicity as to hours, wages and conditions. We stand for a law prohibiting the issuance of watered utock, for a law requiring a uniform price, and for a law which shall be effective against any discrimination in feight rates. "We stand for a country life com mission which shall study the needs of the farmer in order to better his condition. We demand an agricul tural credit system, which shall give the farmer money at a low rate of Interest, not only to move his crops, nut to further the agricultural de velopment in our country; better highways; more and better railroads and a higher standard for country schools. "The progressive party is a party of progress. Our platform today represents the firBt safe and logical steps in the struggle toward making life better for our people. We do not ask nor know what the next step shall be; we can leave that to the future. This step we do know, and we pledge ourselves with all the seriousness and sincerity of our lives to work for these measures un til they become law." Fred W. Meats of Med ford, mem ber of the state committee for Ore gon, offered a few Introductory re marks, leading up to the main speech by Miss Carpenter. He spoke in part as follows: "There is a spirit of deep unrest among our people. Something is wrong with our social, economic and political conditions. Certain funda mental principles must be brought into play to remedy these conditions We believe that these principles can only be made a part of the law of our land by the men and women who stand for these principles banding themselves together into a political party pledged to the carrying out of these principles. An organization around an individual, no matter how good or great he may be, cannot long survive. Men and women must nr. ganize about a principle, must or ganize into a political party pledged to carry out certain principles, in order that their efforts may become effective and permanent. The progressive party came into being because the times demanded that certain fundamental nrirwiniaa be adopted by our body politic In oraer that our nation might live. The progressive party was born in response to the demand that these wrongs be righted. "The progressive party stands for three great and fundamental princl pies. The first principle which the progressive party stands for is more vital democracy, a government more responsive to the needs of the people, a government truly renre- sentative of the will of the people. ve would strengthen the founda tions oi representative government by means of the initiative, referen dum and recall. We would streneth- en our liberties by making suffrage universal, giving to women eauallv with men the right to vote. The two old parties oppose this principle claiming we are destroying the foun datlons of the republic. "The second fundamental Drinci pie for which the progressive party stands is a broader and more heln ful application of the national theorv or government. Thn party believes that the naon should handle all national questions excent those whiclf the constitution express iy lorbids. The democratic party still remains a state-rights party. The republican party stands midway between the progressive and demo cratic parties, claiming that the na tion should handle only those qupr tions which the constitution gives to the federal government. So both old parties seek to put limitations on the power of the nation to handle national questions like that of child labor. We favor a national child labor law and have put it into our national platform. The two old par tics refuse to handle this as a nation al question. Children working at the looms in the north and south means "WHERE YOU DO BETTER" TT ' 1 1 " 1 'WIirH 111 1 1 1 HHt I 111 1 1 1 HI 1 1 1 1 1 11 1 1 1 Ashland Billiard Parloi 10 East Main SI J. P. Sayle & Son strikes at Lawrence, Mass., by men who are fighting for a living wage. Child labor is a national question as well as a state question and should be handled by the nation as. well as by the states. The progressive party in state and nation is pledged to wipe out this national evil. "The third fundamental principle upon which the progressive party is founded is that of social justice. We believe that the emphasis In legisla tion should be placed on the rights and welfare of humanity rather than the rights of property. So we pro pose a program of social an indus trial justice in the interests of our brother-man. "The dominant idea of the pro gressive party is that of progressiv ism. We are opposed to standpatisni in all parties. We believe that the old order is changing. Each step onward brings new duties. Our faces are toward the future. We press forward knowing that God who cared for our nation In the past will lead us in these new paths." Unclaimed Letters.
