"The time was In this state when oar representatives In eoRgreea ecu red the necessary aid -to Improve our harbors, which for yeaa have been totally neg lected. Appropriations for Taaulna, Till amook and Cooa baya and other points were made by congress, and the money was used for Improving and deepening the waters at the entrance of the toys.

How Is It. and why is It, that It takes SO tnUCtl time to get reaay to prepare a bill to ask for this very much needed appropriation T - That should hava been done as soon as that order of business had been reached after our worthy member had been sworn into office. : Xntarstat Commeroe Commission. . "The laws of congress should be amended so as to give greater powers tf the Interstate oommerce commission. The railroads have been discriminating against the people living inland and at points on the lines of the rail road a They have charged for carrying freight to the city of Portland and then bark on the same road to the point of desln natlon. The laws' should be so framed that this commission could be r organ ised with powers to regulate the charges of the railroads, so far as the long and short hauls of the rads are concerned, giving aald commission the power- to fix what the railroads shall charge and no more for the carrying of passengers and freights.. . , .

"The election laws of this state' hava been materially changed in the last few years.- The initiative end referendum amendments were adopted in 1901. I, at that time, supported those amendments for the reason that I believed they would give more power to the people. In lt04 the primary election law was enacted. In 1405 the act was passed called State ment No. 1. 'This act attempted to put In force the doctrine of both of the old A Beautif ler It that will not Injure the skin.

This, I think. Is a good law and it snouia oe ooeyea. j, yv8 ; Th Question of Mcty. . .." It Is not true that a man must be long to the majority party in order to secure the legislation desired ' by ' the people. I have been a member of the Oregon legislature lour different times. and at each - time I belonged to the minority party. I never saw a time that I could not get a respectable hear ing nor that members of the majority party votea against my measures Be cause I belonged to the minority party. A man of character and standing who has been elected to congress will re ceive that kind of reception from his reiiow members that is due to nts posi tion, having no regard to politics. v Ths Tariff. "My opponent, ths Hon. W. C- Haw- ley, advises his constituents to 'stand pat on the subiect or the laws 01 pro tection. The Democratic party stands for a revision and a lowering of the tariff to the point of revenue only. The Reoubllcan oartv has decided on the question of the revision and the lower ing or the tarirx. , . . "A Republican, Mr. McCleary, has figured out the amount per capita that each and everv man. woman and child pays for the benefits of the laws of pro tection as they now stand upon our statute book.' The amount is - is. 11. This is a bonus. If you will multiply that by the number of inhabitants of the entire United elates you will find that the people of this country. Includ ing the unprotected Industries, pay tribute to the protected industries in round numbers about $260,000,000.
