which those demand who have other
interests at stake. They should re-
ceive the full share OF the care and at
tention of those who make and exc
cute laws, to the end that The wants
and the needs of the employers and
employees should alike be subserved
and tho prosperity of The country, the
common heritage of both, be ad-
vanced. AS related to this subject,

PROTECTION TO OUR woRKINaMEN,
A different rule should prevail con-
cerning those who. il they come or
are brought TO our land, do not be-
come Americans, but will injuriously
compete with those justly entitled to
our labor. In letter accepting the
nomination To the Office OF Governor.
nearly two years ago, made the fol-
lowing statement to which | have
steadily adhered: 'rhe laboring
classes constitute the main part of our
population. They should be protect
ed in their efforts peaceably TO assert
their rights when endangered by cap
Ital, and all statutes on this subject
should recognize the care OF the State
for honest toll, and be framed with a
view of proving the condition OF the
workingmen, proper care of the
workingmen being inseparately con-
nected with the integrity OF our insti-
tutions. Hone of our citizens are
more Interested than they in guarding
against any corrupting Influences
which seek 10 pervert the beneficent
purposes of our Government, and
none should be more watchinl of the
fearful Vaccinations OF those who al
lure them to self-infiicted injury. In
free country the eurlsilment of the
absolute rights OF the individual
should only be sucf as is essential to
the peace and good order OF the COM
munity. The limit between the prop
er subjects of governmental control
and tho.e which can be more fitting
ly left To the moral sense and self i'm
posed restraint OF The citizens should
be carefully kept IN view. Thus,
laws unnecessarily interfering with
the habits aud customs OF any one of
our people, which are not offensive 10
the moral sentiments OF the civilized
world and which are consistent With
good citizenship and the public vel
fare, are unwise and vexatious."

The commerce OF a nation TO great
extent determines its supremacy.
Cheap and easy transportation should
therefore be fostered within the limits
OF the Cons. tuition, aud the General
Government should SO improve aud
protect its natural waterways as will
enable the producers OF the country
TO reach a profitable market.
The people pay the wages OF the
public employees, and they are entitled
to the fair and honest work which the
money thus paid should command.
1t Is the duty OF those inirn>ted witt
the management OF affairs To see that
such public service Is forthcoming.
The selection and retention OF snbor-
dinates in Government employment
should depend upon their ascertain
ell fitness and the value of their work
and they should neither he expected
nor allowed 10 do questionable party
service. The interest of tile people
will be better protected, the estimate
of public labor and duty will be im-
mensely improved, If public employ
ment be open to all who demonstrate
their fitness 10 enter 1t. Then the
UNNECESSARY SCRAMBLE FOR OFFICE
Under the Government, with the con-

which gives the best promise OF Az
