' , "' Tariff foe T0tectlon Only. l am In favor of a tariff for proteo tlon, not for monopoly. The experience of eur country -has shown that a tariff for protection of American Industries during the period of their development has served a most -excellent purpose, but it stands to reason that when any par ticular industry has attained those pro portions " of ' development where It . is able to take care ef itself It Is no lonrer entitled to the same considera tion, and the tariff should be modified to meet the changed conditions, mt American sense of Justice will dictate that the tariff laws should hot be manipulated. In the Interests of any mo nopoly of commodities of the people's necessities. Opposes e Trams. Trusts and combinations of capital organised for' the purpose of monopolis ing the publlo utilities and necessities to tbe exclusion of Independent competi tion, are a menace to me liberties or the people and contrary to every prin ciple of public policy. Nothing Is more self-apparent in- the light of our recent financial history than that these colos sal aa-a-ree-atlons of capital. If allowed to continue their system of absorption. will in time-absolutely control the en tire Industrial organisation of the coun try, r Corporations coming witnin tne trust class should be aistoiven ana pro hibited from, engaging' m business, and the Individuals willfully guilty of a Vio lation of the law In this regard should be vigorously punished for their of fense. I am In favor of the most rigid enforcement of euch anti-trust' laws aa are now en our statute books and the enactment of such additional laws es may be necessary te correct the trust evlL . .

The people of Oregtm by art over? whelming majority have declared in favor of the direct primary nominating elections'' law, and I believe- that law should be given a full, fslr pd com. plete trial at the forthcoming: election. - Panama OasalQmasttoaa. The growing commerce of the Pacific coast and the Importance of our trade relations with the orient demand the early construction of the Panama canal, both as a means of facilitating com merce and the movements of the Ameri can navy. The people of this country would be immeasurably benefited through the reduction.'- In transconti nental railroad rates resultant from' the opening of this water-way, and I am heartily in favor, of sufficient appropria tions by the United States government to Insure its, completion with all possi ble' dispatch. .- - The Sight ef Zatboe.-. --. I favor such legislation by the fed eral government aa shall protect, the American werkingman-Ml securing' his rights, for on the welfare of- this class Of our citlsenshtp depends the Stability of the republic. . The right of tbe worit- Ingman to organise for the protection of his rights Is an inherent one, which no Just government will deny, and It has come to be his one means, of com peting wjth organised capital. ' I am In absolute accord -with the-policy of re ducing the hours of labor for the bet terment of the health land home of the American wage-earner. The employment of children of tender ago and immature years In classes of labor- that retard - the development of mind and body Is a menace to the rising clttsenship of the country and should be prohibited by law. , xclnsloB of Chin ass lAbor. I am opposed to any change In or re peal of the Chinese exolusion act that will admit Chinese coolie labor Into this country and into competition with ths Intelligent and Independent worklngmen of America. - My attitude in this respect applies to aU naUonalltlea of oriental labor. - Direct SleottoB ef ewtora, Experience has shown the present system of electing United Statea sena- shrp-trfis-tMrr-dsTnsndsnnsrf- and I am In favor of an amendment to tne federal constitution nrovldlnar fot the election of senators by direct vote of the people. Under the present sys tem the straggles, deals . and dead locks incident to the election of senators nas absorbed the time and attention and distracted tbe energy of legislatures to the detriment Of needed legislation, and I Indorse the direct election plan as a means of removing this evil and as further tending to make United States senators more responsible to the people, and consequently more .heedful of their Interests. .
