Boss System.
While discussing the boss system In
politics the "chairman said: 'The boss
Bystem is unknown and impossible un
der any free- government in the world.
In its very nature it is hostile to the
general welfare. . Yet It has grown un
til it now is n controlling influence in
AmiTiciiu puMlc affairs. At the pres
ent moment notorious bosses are in the
saddle of both'vpd parties in various
important states which must be car
ried to elect a president. This Illuck
Horse Cavalry Is the most Important
force in the practical work of the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties In tho
present campaign. Neither of the old
parlies' nominees for president, can -cupc
obligation to these old -party bosses
nor ihnke their practical hold on many
iiiul powerful inumbcrsrof tho national
legislature."
t Favoring1 Equal Suffrage.
.On wTian suffnw and child lnbor
Senator HeveriUge' said: "Modern in
dustrialism has changed the status of
wo'iten. Women now are wajic-earners in
factories, Moris and other places of toll.
In hours of labor and 11 the physical
conditions of industrial effort they must
compete with men. And they must do
it ut lower vagrs than men receive
waices which, io moFt cases, are not
enough of these women workers to
live on.
"This Is Inhuman nnd Indecent. It is
unsocial and uneconomic. It Is immoral
nnd unpatriotic. Toward women the:
Progressive party prorlalms the chivalry
of the state. We propose to protect
women wage-earners by suitable laws,
an example of which Is the minimum

clothing, food and shelter for the-wom-an

child to grow into a normnl human be
ing Is sacred; and yet, while small and
poor countries, packed with people, have
abolished child labor, American mills,
mines, factories, nnd sweat shops are
destroying hundreds of thousands of
American children in body, mind and
soul."
Pleading for the principles of the
Progressive party and closing his ad
dress, the chairman said:
Party Is Progressive,
"The Progressive party asserts nnew
the vitality of the constitution. Wo be
lieve In the true doctrine of states'
rishU, which forbids . the nation from
Interfering with states' affairs, and also
forbids tho Males from Interfering with
national affairs. The combined In
telligence and composite conscience of
the American people is as irresistible as
it Is righteous; und the constitution does
not prevent that force from working
out the general welfare.
"From certain sources we hear preach
ments about the,.diDger of our reforms
to American institutions. What is the
purpose of American Institutions? Why
wna thts republic established? What
does tho flag stand for7 What do these
things meanT
"They mean that the people shall be
free to correct human abuses.
"They mean that men, women and
children ehall not bo denied the oppor
tunity to grow stronger nnd nobler.
"They mean that the people shall have
tho power to make our land each day
a better place to live In:
"They mean the realities f liberty
and not the academics of theory.
"They mean the actual progress of
the race In tangible ijems of dally liv
ing1 and not the theoretics of barren
ciisputatlon.
"If they do not mean these things
they are us sounding brass and tinkling
cymbal.
"Knowing the price we must pay, the
sacrifice we must make, the burdens
we must carry, the nssaults we must
endure knowing full well the cost
yet-we enlist, and we enlist for the
war. l'"or we know the Justice of our
cause, and we know, too, its certain
triumph."
The fight made by the Union Oil
company 'to restrain the city from en
forcing the ordinance which prohibits
distributing plants of oil companies
within 8000 feet of the harbor line,
within 600 feet of any other building
and within 1000 feet of any other oil
distribution station, was lost this
morning when United States District
Judge Bean decided against the com
pany in its suit against the city of
Portland and ordered the suit dismissed.
Following the fire In which the plant
of the company was destroyed at East
Water and Salmon streets June 26- of
last year, in which Fire Chief Camp
bell lost his Hfe.-the-oily council passed
an ordinance which defined certain dis
tricts In which plants of a similar
character might not be located. ,Tb
eompany at once secured a site in
South Portland outside this restricted
district, and started grading prepara
tory to erecting a plant.
" Residents of South Portland, In the
vicinity of the new site, at once raised
a storm of protest and the council re
considered the first ordinance and
passed the ordinance which included
tha new . site in-the restricted section.
The council also revoked at the time
the permit which had been issued to
the company to build.
The company at once started suit in
the United States district eourt to en
Join the city from carrying out the pro
visions of the ordinance. The basis of
the company's fight for the injunction
was laid' on the grounds that the city,
by tho ordinance, deprived the c6mpany
of property rights without due process
of law and without giving the company
equal protection under the law.
In his decision, Judge Beun states
that the evidence does not show that
the council had been arbitrary in its
action in repealing the first ordinance
and passing the second, nor does it
show that the council acted without
due deliberation. He also decided that
the ordinance was passed In the inter
ests of public safety and not to discriminate.
