Record of His Opponent. Candidates for office must be judg ed by the official record which they have made. There is no other stand ard of measurement; if in this they have shewn an Incapacity or a dispo sition to abuse public trust, then is it reasonable to expect that In the continuance of any public service a different courso will be pursued by them? j My opponent is a. most estimable gentleman. What official records has he made to entitle him to serve the peoplo as their chief cxecutivo? Furnish Was a Democrat. Mr. Furnish at one time served as a democrat as deputy United States marshal, and on .two ocasions he was elected on the democratic ticket as sheriff of Umatilla county, and if he made any record in either of these positions calculated to draw public attention to him as a man who was bent upon saving the tax payors either of the United States or of Umatilla county, I have yet to have that record pointed out to 'me, On the contrary it has been charged that while serving in theso capacities he laid the foundation of a big fortune. It may be that he will go out on the stump and point out to the people of Oregon that particular phase of his official life which entitles him to the suffrages of the people. About him as a citizen I have naught to say but what is most kindly. As a politician I am willing to concede that he is a most excellent organizer, for he has on many occasions set in the coun cils of the democratic party and as sisted in snatching victory out of de feat. If the charges which are made against him by highly esteemed peo ple who opposed his candidacy in the primaries aud In the convention be true, he intenlls, indeed, by the use of money to make such a cam paign as will debauch the politics of Oregon and bring them to a standard of degredation only equaled by- that of Hanua, Piatt, Quay and Croker. What Are Furnish's Qualifications? What reasons are given by the ad herents of my opponent for his elec tion to the chief magistracy? It is claimed for him that his business qualifications as a bank president are sufficient to warrant his election as governor. Again, it is charged that I am a good fellow, genial and companiona ble, and unable to say no to the ap peals which are made to me in pri vate life and to appeals which may be made to me as executive of the state, while my opponent is a man of firmness and of stability, capable of answering no to any appeal that may be made to him in any walk in life. To this i answer that I would rather when I am laid away in moth er earth, have some one stand at the head of my grave and say for me: "Here lies a good, companionable fellow who could not answer no to the appeals of the widow and orphan in Mtf private, (ifg, and who in his public career U6tneJ with mercy to the appeal of the condemned aud unfortunate," than to have feOlue one stand beside my grVe and say: Here lies a man who in life was positive and firm; he accumulated wealth and endowed universities, but his ear was deaf to the appeals for mercy and his heart was impregna ble to suffering and to sorrow." Chamberlain's Record in Office. Again it is charged by my oppo nent that in the Tarious public offices which I have held, no record has been made by me. To this I answer, what record has been made by my opponent that he or his friends shall point with derision to my public life? I call attention to the fact that as the youngest member of the legisla ture In 1880 my party was in the hopeless minority in that body, but my protest was registered against each extravagant item Jn the appro priation bill of that year, and such protests absolutely disregarded. As attorney-general of this state, I was enabled to conduct the affairs of that office upon the salary fixed by law, and paid my own office ex penses out of that salary without asking additional appropriation at the hands of the legislature; that al most every criminal case that went to the supreme court of the state was prosecuted by me on appeal; that in the two great cases against the Southern Pacific company, I was en abled to enforce the rate bills which were fixed by the railroad commis sion, establishing the important pro position to the people of this state that llirso great corporations were rcensurarly subject to legislative con trol: ihat 1 instituted actions for and recovered in the name of the state, taxes from every county which had been in arrears to the state, thus making those counties which were delinquent contribute equally witn those which were prompt to the ex penditures of government. As district attorney of Multnomah county I have been enabled to at tend to the business of the county, civil and criminal, without applying for assistance to outside counsel and without additional expense other than the law provides, and have sav. id' the county In three Items of ex pense alone' about $15,000 per annum.

I hesitate not to open the book of my official life to the peoplo of this state along side of ; ny official record that my opponent Las made, and leave it to the voteis to say which of tho two hns been most faith ful in the discharge of public trust. Initiative and Referendum. There' is to be submitted to tho voters of this state a proposed amendment to the constitution. I re fer to the initiative and referendum amendment. I appeal to you here and now to cast your ballot In favor of this im portant constitutional amendment at the 'coming election. Do not let it escape your attention in glancing over the ballots. It is the only sal vation for the mass of the people as against the greed of corporate wealth. Municipal Control of Public Utilities. There is a plank in our platform to which I desire to direct your at tention for a few moments, and thai is to municipal ownership or control of public utilities. Wherever cities and towns have as sumed either tho ownership or con trol of the water systems within their jurisdiction, it has in all cases re sulted in better and more economical service to the people. Chinese and Japanese Exclusion. The democratic platform declares in favor of Chinese exclusion and tho taking of such steps as may be neces sary to restrict tho immigration of Japanese labor, with which in many Hacocs American labor is being sun. planted. It is one of tho anomalies of con gressional . legislation that when tho ship subsidy bill was under discus sion, those who advocated the sub sidy bill urged for its passage that the American people ought to have American registered vessels, manned by American seamen, constituting a navy of patriotic citizens ready for any 'emergency to fight tho battles of our country, and yet the same men who favored the building of another great trust in the shape of subsidies to ship owners, come in to the halls ol congress and without blush or shame insist that that portion of the exclusion bill now before Congress which forbade the employment of Chinese as sailors on any American ship, should be stricken out, thus placing It in tho power of the ship owner, subsidized by national grant, to do away with tho American sailor at a fair wage rate and put in his place the ABiatic at a salary upon which the American laborer could not live. What consistency! I have no doubt but that congresB will eventually pass some" sort of an act against Chinese immigration. How far it will go It is impossible at this timo to state. Trusts. Two dstingulshed republicans of this state addressed a large public gathering in the city of Portland less than six months ago. By one It was urged that tho excessive tariff rates prescribed by tho Dingloy tap iff law now in force had nothing whatever to do with tho repeated ere ation and formation of trusts In the United States, whilst tho other gen tleman upon the samo platform and upon the same occasion, stated Jn substance that tho high tariff rates prescribed by this law were respon sible Jn very large measure for such trusts. Which of these gentlemen Is right? There is no question but that since this law has been in force one trust after another has been formed upon massive scales, crushing out all competition and making it impossi ble for a man of limited capital and means to .compete with aggregated corporate wealth. TbeJr formation it was claimed, would cheapen pro duction and place coniodltioa In tho hands of tho ooiisiuner at a less rate, whilst tho laborer would receive a higher pay for his services. Tho first result has not been accomplish ed. As a mntter of fact, tho manu factured articles have reached the consumer nt an enhanced price, and where there hns been an advance In wages, as a rulo It hns boon largely due to the demand of organized la bor. The creation and conduct of trusts should be regulated by law which they should bo compelled by the courts to respect. Rights of Labor. One of tho most .marked features of tho times is tho rapid and intelligent organization of labor. .All over tho country it has placed Itself in a po sition to assert its rights, and so per feet is its organization that in most cases it hns boon enabled to procuro a compliance with its demands. It is one of tho healthy signs of tho times that vast armies of laborers go quietly to work, demanding an ad justment of thoir grievances and ac complishing what they start out to perform without violenco and with out tho breach of any law. Tho timo Is not lar distant when Intelligent la borer and intelligent omp'loyor will come together and confer in a bnsl- ness-liko way over differences, and whore those differences can not bo adjusted, arbitration will bo resorted to and labor troubles entirely avoid ed. The Philippines. Tlic Philippine archipelago and Porto Rico have been finally added to our territory by treaty. That they belong to the United States there can bo no question, and now that their annexation has becomo an accom plished fact, wo Insist that tho con stitution of tho United States ought to follow tho flag, and that they should bo treated exactly tho same way and manner as inland territory of tho United States Is treated. There is no reason why the pro ducts of our farm and our factory should not bo sent to the Philippines and In return thoir hemp, tobacco and sugar shippod to us freed from any tariff charges, As long, however, as tho tobacco and sugar trusts dic tate leKlslation in tho halls of con gress, it Is moro than humanity can hope for to expect tno tarlit wan to bo beaten down between this covin try and our possessions abroad, Tho platform adopted by tho con vention advocates tills policy of treatment toward our Insular possessions, BEAUTIFUL Are tho pxcIuhIvo new pat terns iu wall paper wo aro show ing.
