When 1 com to Salem in January, next I will not com with the intention of doing much talking; in fact, i am not much of a talker, either in pubiio or private.

His Excel lency, Governor Gr; lays them down, and it shall be my aim to carry forward the good work which ho has begun, and to keep up the high standard of Government which the Republican par ty always guarantees. "Being accustomed to the manage ment of business affairs requiring close attention to details, I shall expect to devote a great deal of time and labor to familiarize myself with the details of all of the state institutions and ex ercise my influence and power as the chief executive of the state to.aeef that every state . institution and every .de partment thereof, as well as every de partment of the state Government, is tranayd With the- strictest integrity. and with the greatest possible econo is possioie etono- my. consistent with good Government, ,, "We have just witnessed, and are now experiencing "a period' of -prosperity during which all lines' ef indus try and business have ' grown to a magnitude far" beyond any thfng ever yet known in our country, or for that matter, in any other country; and it is but natural that the business affairs of a great and growing state like ours should grow in tike proportion, thus necessitating the expenditure of many hundreds of thousands of dollars an nually to maintain the state Govern ment. In the great business affairs of the state, we are all deeply interested! Those who pay the taxes are interest ed as taxpayers, and all lovers of good Government and American institutions are interested; in seeing that we have a vigorous, just and upright adminis tration."; t think that the people in choosing a Governor should exercise the same care and judgment which they would do in selecting a business man aoer-for a areat private business in stitution ef which they were tbei own ers, at,, after all, the duty of your chief executive is to manage the affairs 4 of state, to see that every institution, and every department' thereof, is -properly equipped and efficiently and econom icaljyj manage. , '-' "Should you erect ; me Governor, ;as I believe you will, I, shall not attempt to pose as a T reformer who already knows more about the affairs of the state, and the management of the va rious institutions, than all of the tried and ..experienced officials and empJdy- ees; but shall take great care to Tamil- iarize myself with ail of the business affairs of the state, ' recognizing effi ciency and devotion to duty; with the good of all the people of the whole state in mind.- .' i "I will make my 'home with you in Salem and devote my whole time to the welfare of the interests of the state, and to use all my power, to en force and uphold all the laws of the state with perfect justice to each and II classes of , citizens, and to every section of the state; in other words, I shall use ill the power and influence which I may have to give the state a vigorous, honest, upright, business-like administration in every; department thereof; and in detail. .; "I am in thorough accord-with the Republican party of Oregon, as defined in its declaration of principles adopted by the. State Convention. J stand fair-i ly upon the platform as adopted There it not an unsound plank in the plat form ; on the other hand,' there is not an important issue neTore xne popi of the oountry today which the Repvrb- lican party hat found tt necessary to dodge or straddle.- it has taken a pos itive and aggressive stand on the right side of each and every pubiio question before the people at the present time. - "I not only endorse the platform as adopted, but I am glad to have an op portunity to assist in the advancoment of every principle therein enunciated. "The Repunblican party in its plat form has declared absolutely against all proposals looking to the abandon ment by the United. States of the Phil ippines. The question is by far the most important question beforV the people today; and the one in which the peopje are the mostt .deeply interested and especially the people of this Coast and this state who have so much to xpeet from tha development of our new-found possessions. . 1 am In hearty accord with Jur par ty upon this question, f I am proud to be identified with a party which has the manhood and courage to declare boldly for the right, and which Insists upon a fight to a finish to uphold ur National honor and good name among all the nations of the earth. W,if proud ef our National ad ministration, -as administered by our late great and good President, William McKinley, who controlled our destin ies through the late Spanish war, hav ing steered our course clear of every breaker to a successful consummation of one of the grandest ; achievements in history.;.- ..... pv V:r1 ,i "We are also, jndeed. a fortunate people to have the strong and vigorous President Roosevelt t shape our des tinies, and to assrnthe responsibil ities thrust upon us by the fortunes ot war; and I have great faiththat the people of Oregon, by their votes in June, will show to the world that we appreciate thgreafr services rendered the country oy our nugnn iumipn tration. and that the people of Oregon intend to uphold it. Let as by o:r ve(M in June inform all the world that know, that while the Republican party ia in power, and the strong, vigorous -and , honest Roosevelt is at the helm of our ship of state, no man or no power on earth will haul down that flag in the Phil ippines. . " - J : ' s "I m in hearty accord with the Re publican platform in reference to the recognition of organized, labor. Hav ing been a day laborer for a great part of my life, I know how to sympathize with the laborer in the unequal strug gle for his fights. -l am unalterably . opposed to the preposition of the leasing of the public lands, knowing at I do that such a course would give the rich corpora tions control over large tracts' of pub lie lands, thereby retarding. settlement by the homeseekers.

"I am equally In favor off all of the other principles adopted by the. State Convention. "Now.in conclusion, I desire to thank each and all of you for this handsome reception, and this : demonstration, of Republican enthusiasm, which I think nouvq oe more, correctly ; termed a demonstration of patriotism. - , - "Now, when I come to Salem to live, t trust you will find me an agreeable neighbor, as I know in advance I shall find all of you. ; ' ' u . l thank you for your, kind atten tion." . ., : - . i : , 'When Mr. Furnish concluded his ad dress beTng frequently interrupted and bis strong poistts emphasized by vig orous applaudSngs.. he was accorded, a " tr.,. , f nK J Mr. Georre Snytfer then favored the audlemoe wttht a vocal i; sokvv entitled, "The Flag That Has Never.
