FRANKLIN M'vEAeH ON TIE ISSUES
What He Said in His Speech on Opening
His Campaign.

CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-Franklin McVeagh,
the Democratic candidate for United
States senator in this state, opened his
campaign in Central Music hall to a large
audience. He dealt with the tariff bill in
the same way that has been done by Pres
ident Cleveland and others-ieclaring it
not what was wanted, but better than the
Mckinley bill, and promising further
steps toward free trade, charging the
failure of the original purpose to a protec-
ton majority IN the senate. He favored
bi-metaiiis,n, but not silver mono-metall-
ism, which was worse than gold mono
metallism. which was bad enough.
lie thought the income TAX would grow
In favor. On the labor question he
thought it not improbable that the ma
tionai government would have to take
charge of strikes that took a continental
form-a process which would theaten local
self-government. in which he believed.
He hoped 1t would not come to that,
hewever; but if it did he wanted the
Democratic party to destroy the present
barbarous manner of settling industrial
disputes. The great power of organized
labor should be restrained by both public
opinion and law, but so also should that
OF trusts and monopolies.

Realizing the danger, if he applied the
