Biilington, of Cottage Grove, Oregon, repudiating me as "a Christian minister shows how the prohibition movement blinds and hardens the hearts ot its ad vocates. I was billed to speak at his town when he wrote the letter. It seemed to me that honesty and brotherly love should have restrained him from writ ing such letters of repudiation have heard Following is the platform of H M. Cake, of Portland, who is seeking the republican nomina tion for United States senator I believe the public service corporations should be subject to govrmental regulations and con trol. The power of regulation should be vested in the Inter-state Commerce Commission, and should be exercised with due re gard to the respective rights of the people and the corporations. Trusts or combinations of cap ital organized for the purpose of controlling the utilities and nec essities of the country, to the ex clusion of legitimate competition, are contrary to public policy; in derogation to the rights ot the people, and should come under the ban of the law. I believe in preserving the dig nity of our American citizenship and the freedom of the laboring classes of this country, hence, I am opposed to the admission of the Chinese coolie labor of China, and the undesirable classes of continental Europe.

The reclamation of the and lands is one of the pressing needs of the northwest and a condition to its greater development, and the efficiency of the reclamation service should be one of the first cares of the federal government.
