MR. HAWLEY WAS TRIED AND FOUND
WANTING
T IS A FACT that a vast majority of the peo­
ple of Oregon favor a reduction of th»1 tariff
schedules to a revenue producing basis. This
is true now and has been true for n an/ years.
True, a few wool growers and manufacturers of
lumber, for selfish reasons, desired the dut'es on
those products be retained as in the McKinley
tariff, when the Payne-Aldrich tariff was pending.
It is. also, a fact that fully 99 per cent, of th«* peo
pie of Oregon desired that the allowance for carry­
ing the mails on the railways should I k ? reduced
to a reasonable and fair umount say the rates
allowed by the railways for carrying express
matter.
Congressman Hawley has known these fact.«
from the day upon which he was first elected to
congress, lias he represented the will of his con­
stituents noon these measures? Lt us see.
The congressional record shows that he voted
for the schedules of the present tariff in every
instance and that he voted to increase the pay of
the railways for carrying the mails $2,700,000 per
annum. These are fads which Mr. Hawley will
not dispute; for they were taken from the con­
gressional record as they were noted down by the
secretaries of the House of Representatives.
Instead of representing the people of Oregon,
Mr. Hawley has represented the big busine.^
interests the trust manufacturers and the rail­
roads. Because of Mr. Hawley’s votes and others
of the majority party in congress you are paying
higher than you should for th«* sugar which
sweetens your coffee, for the oil which illuminates
your homes, for the cotton stockings which your
wives and children wear, for your clothing both
cotton and woolen anil for almost every thing which
goes to make living pleasant.
Mr. Hawley knows that he has misrepresented
his constituents upon these measures and that he
has represented the protected interests and the
railroads. Why did he do it? llo .s he think his
constituents are foolsand do not know when they
are oetrayed? Should he not look to the interests
which he has served and not to the people whom
he has lietraycd for his re-election?
A man can and will be excused, if he makes
occasional mistakes, if they are made through
ignorance or misinformation. But this is not the
case with Mr. Hawley. He knew the sentiments
of the people of his state regarding a revision of
the tariff. He knew that they wanted a substan­
tial reduction of the schedules.
He knew that
they expected him to vote for this reduction. But
he did not do so and did vote as Cannon and the
tariff and railroad barons wanted him to vote.
There might be excuse for electing Mr. Hawley, if
he had serve«! but one term. In which case the
people might hope that, having mingle«! with his
constituents he would vote differently when a re­
hearing of the tariff measure is had. But this will
be his third term, providing he is elected, and
there is no hope that he will serve the interests of
the people as against those of the corporate inter­
ests.
