band la in tbe fact that we represent
the policies essential to tbe reform of
known abuses, to the continuance of
liberty and true prosperity, nud that
we are determined, aa our platform un
equivocally declares, to maintain them
and carry them on. Fur mure than ten
years this country passed through on
epoch of material development far be
yond any that ever occurred In tbe
world before. lu Its course, certain
Tils crept in. Borne prominent nud In
fluential members of the community,
purred by financial success and In
their hurry for greater wealth, trucame
unmindful of the common rules of
business honesty and fidelity and of
the limitations Imposed by law upon
their action. This became known. The
revelations of the breaches of trust,
the disclosures as to rebates and dls
criminations by railways, the accumu
lating evidence of the violation of the
anti-trust his- by a numlier of corpora
tions, the overissue of stocks and bonds
on interstate railways for tbe unlawful
enriching of directors and for the pur
pose of concentrating control of rail
ways In one management, all quick
ened the conscleuce of the people, and
brought on a moral awakening among
them that boded well for tbe future of
the country.
What Roosevelt Has Done.
The man who formulated tbe expres
sion of the popular conscience and who
Jed the movement for jiractlcal reform
was Theodore Ilocmevelt. He laid
flown the doctrlue thut the rich violator
of the law should be as amenable to
restraint and punlshmeut ns the of
' fender without wealth und without in
fluence, and he proceeded by recom
mending legislation and directing ex
ecutive action to make that rlnr!ple
COod In actual performance,
President Koosevelt directed suits to
be brought nud prosecutions to be In
stituted under the anti-tract law, to en
force Its provisions against tbe most
powerful of the Industrial corporations.
Be pressed to passage the pure food
law and the meat Inspection la w in the
lsterest of the health of the public,
dean business methods and great ultl
siate benefit to the trades themselves.
Be recommended the passage of a law,
which the Republican convention has
since specifically ailroved, restricting
the future issue of stocks and bonds by
Interstate railways jto such as may be
authorised by Federal authority.
Chief Function of Next Administration
The chief function of the next Ad
snlnlstratlou. In my judgment is dis
tinct from, und a progressive develop
ment of that which has been jterfonned
by President ltooseu-lt. The chief
funetlou of the next Administration la
to complete unit perfect the machinery
by which thette standards may be main
tained, liy which the lawbreakers may
be promptly restrained aud punished,
but which Hhull operate ultb sufficient
accuracy and dUpntcb tu Interfere with
legitimate liunluess as little as possible.
Such machiuer Is not now adequate.
Physical Valuation of Railways.
Borne of the suggestions of the Demo
cratlc platform relate really to this
subordinate aud ancillary machinery
to which 1 have referred. Tuke for in
stance tbe so-called "puyslcul valuation
of ralluajs." It I' cleur that the sum
of all rateB ur lecelpts of u railway,
less proper expeUMS, Kbould lie limited
to a fair profit upon tbe reasonable
value of Its proerty, auj thut if the
sum exceeds this meusure, it ought to
be reduced. The difficult' lu enforcing
the principle is lu usc-ertalulug whut is
tbe reaBuuable vulue uf the company's
property, and lu tiling whut is u fab
profit It is cleur that the pbj steal
value of a railroad and Its plant is un
element to be given eight lu deter
mining its full value; but us 1'iebldeut
lioosevelt lu bis ludlauupolls speech
and the Bupreme Court have lu eflect
pointed out, the value of the railroad
as a going concern, Including Its good
will, due to ellleiency of service and
xuany other circuiustuuees, muy lie
mock greater than the value of Its tan
gible proierty, and It Is the former thut
measures the Investment on which a
fab- profit must be allowed. Then, too,
the question whut is a fair profit is one
involving not ouly tbe rate of iuterest
usually earned on normally safe Invest
ments, but also u suthrleut allowance
to make up for the risk of loss both
of capitul nud luteiest lu tbe original
outlay. These considerations will burr

progress.
From what has Is-eu suld, tbe pioper
conclusions would seem to be thut lu

country ere reusunabl) low.
Conclusion That Thsro Should Bo
Physical Valuation.
I hut discussed this, with soma do-
gree of detail, merely to point out that
tbe valuation by the Interstate Com
merce Commission of the tangible
property of a railroad Is proper and
may from time to time be necessary la
nettling certain Issues which may come
before them, and that no evil or injus
tice can come from valuation In such
cases, If it be understood that the re
suit is to be used for a Just purpose,
and the right to a fair profit under all
the circumstances of the Investment Is
recognized.
National Control of Interstate Com
merce Corporation.
Another suggestion In respect to sub
ordinate and ancillary machinery nec
essary to carry out llepubllcau policies
is that of the incorporation under Na
tional law or tbe licensing by National
license or enforced registry of compa
nies engaged in Interstate trade. The
fact is that nearly all corporations do
ing a commercial business are engaged
In interstate commerce, and if they nil
were required to take out a Federal
license or a Federal charter, the bur
den upon the Interstate business of the
country would become Intolerable.
It Is necessary, therefore, to devise
some means for classifying and insur
ing Federal supervision of such cor
porations as hare tbe power and temp
tation to effect restraints of Interstate
trade and monopolies. Ruch corpora
tions constitute a very small percent
age of all engaged In Interstate buRl
neas. Construction of Anti-Trust Law.
The possible operation of the anti
trust law under existing rulings of tbe
Supreme Court has given rise to sug
gestions for Its uecessury amendmeut
to prevent its application tu cases
which it is believed were never iu tbe
contemplation of the framers of tlie
statute. Tuke two instances: A mer
chant or uuiuufucturer engaged In a
legitimate business thut covers certain
States, wishes to sell his business uud
his good will, und so lu the terms of
the sale obligate himself to the pur
chaser not to go into tlie same busi
ness in those Btates. Kuch a restraint
of trade hus ulwuys been enforced at
common law. Agulu, the emplnjees of
au Interstate railway combine and en
ter upon a peaceable and luwful strike
to secure better wages. At cummou
law this was not a restraint of trade
or commerce or n violation of tbe
rights of the company or of the public.
IS'elther case ought to be mude a viola
tion of the untl-trust law. My juvra
Impression Is thut tho Supreme Court
would hold that neither of these In
stances Is within its inhibition, but, if
they are to be so regarded, generul leg
islation amending the law Is uecessury.
The proposal to compel every cor
poration to sell its commodities nt the
same price the country over, allowing
for transportation, is utterly Imprac
ticable. If it can lie ahowu thut in or
der ts drive out competition, a corpo
ration owning a large part of tbe plant
producing an article is selling In one
part of the country, where it bus com
petitors, at a low nud unprofitable
price, and In another part of tbe coun
try, where It has none, at nn exorbi
tant price, this is evidence that it 1b at
tempting an unlawful monopoly, nnd
Justifies conviction under tlie onti-truBt
law; but tbe proposal to suiwrviM the
business of corKratlons in such n way
as to fix the price of commodities and
compel the sale at such price is as ab
surd and socialistic a plank as wus
ever Inserted in a Democratic political
platform.
Advantage of Combination of Capital.
The combination of capital In large
plants to manufacture goods with the
greatest economy Is Just as necessary
as tbe" assembling of the parts of a
machine to tho economical und more
rapid manufacture of what in old
times was made by hand. The Gov
ernment should not Interfere with one
any more than the other.
What Is an Unlawful Trust
TYhen. however, such combinations
are not based on any economic prin
ciple, but are made merely for the pur
pose of controlling the market to
maintain or raise prices, restrict output
and drive out competitors, tbe public
derives no benefit and we have a mo
nopoly. It Is Important, therefore,
that szch large aggregations of cap
ital and comblnatlou should be con
trolled so that the public may have
the ndvuutuge of reasonable prices
and thut the uveuues of enterprise
may be kept open to the individual nud
the smaller corporation wishing to en
gage lu business.
Many enterprises have bceu organ
ized on tbe theory that mere aggrega
tion of ail, or nearly all, existing pluuts
in a line of manufacture, without re
gard to economy of production, de
stroys eompetltlou. They have, most
of them, gone into buukruptcy. Com
jielltion lu a profitable business will
not bo affected by "the mere aggrega
tion of many existing plants under one
compuny, unless the compuuy thereby
effects great economy, the lienent of
which it shares with tbe public, '
takes some illegal method to avoid
competition and to perpetuute a bold
on tbe business.
Proper Trcstment of Trusts,
Unlawful trusts should be revtralued
with all the efficiency of Injunctive
process, anQ the persons engaged In
maintaining them should be jiuulshed
with all tbe beverlly of crlmlmil pros
ecution, in order that tbe methods pur
sued lu the operatlou of their business
shall be brought within the law. Tu
destroy them and to eliminate the
wealth they repieseiit fium the pro
ducing capital of the cuuutry would
eutull enormous luss, und would throw
out of employment myriads of vvork
lugmeu and worklngwoiueu. Kuch u
result Is wholly unnecessary to the ac
complishment of the needed reform,
and will inflict upou the innocent fur
greater punishment than upon tbe
guilty.
Destructive Policy of Democratic Plat
form. The liemocratlc platform does not
propose to destroy the plants of the
trusts phyBlcully, but it proposes tu
do the same thing lu a different uy.
The business of this country Is iuige
ly dependent on u prutectlvo Bjsteu of
tariffs. The business duue by many
of the so called "trrtsts" is protected
with the other business of the count!)
The Ilem'MTUtie plutfurm prnpnM-s tu
tuke off the tariff In nil tinlc lew turn
ing lutu competition with memo pro
duced by the su culled "trusts," aud
to put them on tbe free list. If BUcli
a course would lie utterly destructive
of their business, as is Intended, It
wuuld not ouly destroy the trusts, but
ull of their smaller eomiK-tltors. The
ruthless uivd Impracticable character
of the proposition gruws plainer us Us
effects upuu the whole cumtuuiilty ale
reullxed.
Tu tuke tbe course suggested by the
Democratic platform lu these mutters
Is to involve the entile i-uiumuulty, lu

the American producer. Tbe excess over
that difference serves no useful pur

abolition of the fellow-servant rule,
and tbe introduction of the couipura
tlve negligence theory by w blch an em
ployee injured lu the service of his
employer does not lose his right to re

the various statutes requiring safety

Objections to Democratic Proposal to
Enforce Insurance of Dsnk Deposits.
The Democratic platform recom
mends a tax u'kju Is'atluual banks end
upon such Ptate bnnkB as may come
in, In the nature of enforced insurance
to raise n guaranty fund to pay the de
positors of any lmuk hlch fulls. How
Ptate bunks can be included In such a
scheme under the constitution Is left
In the twilight zone of States rights
nud Federalism so frequently dimming
the meuidng and purpose of the prom
ises of the platform, If they come In
under such a system, they must neces
sarily be brought within tbe closest
Nntl'junl control, nud so they must
really cease to ire State banks and be
come National banks.
The proposition is to tax the honest
and prudent banker to make up for the
dishonesty and Imprudence of others.
If the proposal were adopted exactly
(is the Ireinocratlc platform suggests.
It wuuld brlug the whole banking sys
tem of the country down lu ruin.
The Ilepubllcun party prefers the
postul savings bank us one tried, fiafe,
nnd known to Ire effective, and as
reaching many more i-eople now with
out banking facilities than tbe new
pystem proposed.
Philippines.
In the Philippines the experiment of
n national assembly has Justified It
self, truth us nn assistance In the gov-t-rntueut
of tbe Islands und as an edu
cation in the practice of self -gov em
inent to the people of the islands
The proposition of the Democratic
plntfnrm is to turn over the islands
ns soon as n stable government is es
tablished. This has been established
The proposal then is In effect to turn
them over nt oute. Such action will
lead to ultimate chaos lu the islands.
The Rights and Progress of tho Negro.
Tbe llepubllcau platform refers to
these amendments to the Constitution
that were passed by the Republican
party for the protection of the negro.
The negro, in the forty years Blnce he
was freed from aluvery, has made re
mnrkuble progress. He Is becoming a
more nnd more valuable ineinber of tbe
communities In which he lives. The
educutlon of tbe negro Is being cx
punded and improved in every way.
The treat men of both races, at tbe
North as well as at the South, ought to
tejulce to see growlug up among the
Southern purple an Influential element
disposed to encourage the negro in his
tiurd struggle fur Industrial ludejrend
enee und nssuti-d polltlcul status. The
Hcpubllcnu plutform, adopted at Chi
sago, explicitly demunds Justice for all
men without regard to nice or color,
nud Just us explicitly declares for the
enforcement, und without reservation,
In letler und spirit of the Thirteenth.
Fourteenth nnd Fifteenth Amendments
tn the Constitution.
Publicity of Campaign Contributions
snd Expenditures.
Another plunk of the liemocratlc
platform refers to tbe falluie of tbe
Ilepubllcuu Convention to exjiress uu
opinion in fuvor of the publicity of
contributions received and expendi
tures mude In elections. Here again
we contrast our opponents promises
with our owu acts. A resident of New
Vork has been selected as treasurer of
the Ilepubllcun National Committee,
who was treasurer of the Bepubllcan
State Committee when Governor
Hughes was elected in New Tork. and
who mude a complete statement with
in twenty days after the election, as
required liy tbe New York law. of the
rontributloUB received by him and the
expenditures made by him or tinder
bis authority in connection with that
election. His residence and the dis
charge of his duties lu the State of
New York subject him to the law of
that State us to ell receipts of the
treasury of the National Committee
from whatever source and ae to all Its
disbursements. His returns will be
under the obligations and penalties of
the law. and a misstatement by him or
the filing of a false account will sub
ject him to prosecution for perjury
i.nd t lolutlon of the statute. Of course,
uuder the Tederal law, be is not irer
mltted to receive any contributions
from corporations.
Income Tan.
7'he Democratic plutform demands
two constltutlouul amendments, one
providing for un Income tax, uud the
other for the election of Senators by
the jreople. Iu my Judgment an
umeiidment to the Constitution for an
lucouie tux is not uecessury. I believe
thut nu income tux, when the protec
tive system of customs nnd the inter
uul revenue tax sbull nt fuiul'h in
come (Uougli for goicrniucutul needs,
cun nud should Is- devised which un
der tho decisions of tbe Supreme
Court will conform to the (VmstJtutlon.

The Forelgnar'e Shots.
Buffalo Bill, who says that with
hard wurk a man should lira to be a
centenarian, talked at a reunion of
I 'tin Kan cavalrymen about straight
shooting.
"it is hard work to learn to be a
straight shot" he said. "It took roe a
lung time to learn to shoot straight I
learned, though. I once contracted with
tbe Kansas Pacific railway to furnish
enough buffalo meat for all the labor
ers employed on the building of tho
road, and In aigbteva months I killed
4.S80 buffaloea. That was straight
shooting, eh? That gars me tide same
of Buffalo Bill that pcsopla generally
know me by."
He smiled.
"We Americana ars stralghter shots
