ies of child lire In tho slumi nto told
in the annual report of tho London
county council, Just issued. Describ
ing conditions In one typical district
that of Kdinburgh road, tho medical
officer of education says:
"The great nmoiint of anaemia
and malnutrition among these chil
dren Is attributable to poverty, with
Its resultant evils of dirt, underfeed
ing and female labor. The main ar
ticles of diet nre Indifferent bread
and butter, the fag ends of coarse
meat, the outside leave of green
vegetables and an occasional penny's
worth of fish and potatoes.
"Approximately one third of the
children In this neighborhood nre
supported by female labor owing to
inability of the men to got work. The
glrjft are required to work far be
yond their strength at domestic
drudgery, while the boys hang
around public houses and the gas
works, picking up scraps of food or
coppers from the workmen. It Is
not uncom'mon,Mo find girls of
doing a hard .day's work outside
school hours."

OPEN LETTER TO
VOTERS OF OREGON
Continued from Page One.
lions of watered stocks and bunds is
sued, and will fasten upon tho people
for all time the speculative capitali
zation of our public service and busi
ness corporations.
Need New Statute
The time Is at hand to declare for
a atatnje which shall mako It ever
lastingly Impossible for any presi
dent, or any congress, or any court,
to legalize spurious capitalization as
a basis of extortlonato prices.
The progressive republican plat
form must take advunco ground upon
this question. It must declare Tor
tho Kpeedy abolition of all privilege,
It must deal rationally but firmly
with thu coiftplex problonm which
have been perniltted to develop main
ly in tho last union yearn. It must
bo to tho Inst degree a constructive
plat form,
But a platform, however trtrong
hud progressive, hi not enough. For
example, tho platform or 1U0H was n
plain declaration for a revision of
tho tnrlfr on the ImnlH or the differ
ence In tho cost of production. Re
vision In compliance with that plodgo
would have enormously reduced tho
Dlngley duties, but tho president
elected on tliat platform approved
tho Payne-Aldrlch bill, Increasing
tho Dlngley dufles.
Lesion is Obvious
Tho lesson Ih obvious. Its'tcnchlng
I must not be forgotten, Tho cltlxen
should ask what tho candidate has
actually done toward solving tho
problems that confront us: whether
his course of action gives assurance
or profound conviction; whether he
Is equipped with patience, determina
tion and oxporlcnco to deal with
these problems, constructively, In tho
public Interest,
lu this spirit l ask you to con
sider my candidacy.
I shall not undertake, within the
compass of this letter, to dlsciiMs the
Issues, or Indeed to more than sug
gest my position upon the vitally Im
portant ones.
1 bellevo In:
Tho liittlntlve, referendum and re
call and direct nominations and elec
tions, not only as applied to states,
but also In the extension of these
principles to thj nation as a whole.
The equalization of the burdens of
luxation, upon a property basis,
through tho adoption of graduated
Income and Inheritance taxes.
The parcels post.
Government ownership of express
companies and government operation
of express busIuesH at actual cost to
the public.
ltcnsniinhlo 'Valuation
The reasonable valuation of tho
physical property of railroads, justly
Inventoried ami determined, as tho
basis for fixing rates, nnd tho exten
sion of the powers and the adminis
trative control of tho Interstate Com
iiicrce commission.
1 would have tho nation know how
much of tho $18,00000,000 capitali
zation was contributed by those who
own the railroads, and how .much by
the people, thctiifulvcs,
I believe In the creation of a com
mission, with fowor to investigate
nud ascertain thu Illegal arts of all
trusts and combinations, nud with
power to ascertain tho reasonable
valuation not tho monopoly valua
tion of tho physical properties of
tho great monopolies, beginning
with such us tho natural resources,
such as coal, oil, and Iron; In tho
creation of a tariff commission of
experts clothed with real .power to
determine thu valuation of nil tho
elements of production, costs nnd
profits, nnd in tho reduction of tar
iff rates to tho ascertained differ
ence between tho labor lu this coun
try and abroad, instead of ouch of
theso government commissions Inves
tigating tho snmo fnctH Independently
I bollevo It would bo pnictli'itl for a
sluglo board of expert uccoiintaiits,
statisticians, ecouomlslH, nnd engi
neers to bo empowered to gel the
fuels, not for tho eourhlontlul use of
the president or the depart incuts, but
for congress mid tho public,
Opposes Ship Siilldles
I am opposed to nhlp subsidies,
which, once eiilreuuhed, will heroine
another corrupting Influence In our
politics,
I am opposed to further extrava
persons only. In building butlleshtps
gauce, on tho udvlco of Interested
and political navy yiuds, nnd favor
tin unprejudiced commission to In
vestigate and report what Is required
lu tho way of national defense,
I am opposed to the dollar diplo
macy which lias reduced our state
department from its high place mi a
kindly Intermediary of defenseless
nations Into a trading outpost for
Well Street Interests, aiming to ex
ploit those who should he our
friends.
1 am opposed to tho A Id rich cur
rency scheme, which, under the guise
of providing elasticity to our cur
rency system and relieving monetary
conditions. Is lu reality a menus of
concentration of tho currency nud
the credits of tho United States mi
drr a fifty-) ear franchise Into those
hands which have already iiccured
control of the banking nud Insurance
resources of the country.
I favor u policy of government
ownoislilp mid operation of Alnnlian
rullioiiln mill coal mines, mid of an
Alaskan nlemuHhlp lino by way of
Pacific ports through Panama In Now
Yoiit.
I was opposed to tho Catinillnu

It when It was before the neiinle, ar
