CLARKE WILL Do THINGS

He Is Bound to Get Into Los Angeles
The Burlington In

Salt Lake, Utah, Jan. Ex-senator
Clarke has made proposition to buy the
Oregon Short Line, extending from this
point southwest toward Los Angeles.
Failing in this he desires to lease por-
tion of the line and if turned down on
both propositions he intends to parallel
the road. A conference was held in Wash
ington yesterday between Senator Clarke,
Burlington road officials and representa-
tives of the Hartman railway interests.
If Senator Clarke's proposition is accepted
the Burlington will probably make ar
rangements to run it's trains into Los
Angeles over the Hartman and Clarke
lines as soon as the connections can be
made.

Lobbyists Denounced.

The lobbyist who is for anything or against
anything for hire, whose mission it is to pre-
mote one measure or defeat another, who
haunts the chambers Of legislation and taints
its atmosphere with his corrupt designs, who
sends for members for interviews in the
cloakroom, who carries a tally sheet and
watches the roll call, who shadows the mem
bers at their homes and hotels, injecting at
all hours and all places his poison into the
public service, Is criminal whose approach
is an insult, and to whom the doors of the
capitol should never swing inward.
Even as Christ scourged the money chang
ers from the temple. at Jerusalem, SO you,
senators and representatives, will scourge the
lobbyist from your sight and hearing.

Publicity Not a Cure.

I am unable to agree that we can cure
whatever evils may exist In these organiza-
lions by publicity. Their affairs are already
sufficiently public so that every intelligent
man understands in a general way OF what
they are composed, what they are doing and
what they are earning. 1t is we'll enough to
require them to make statements, and sub
init to examinations; but if we are to limit
our regulation to mere publicity, the outcome
will not justify the attention we are bestow-
ing upon the subject.
l recur to an expression of moment ago,
that competition is the force upon which we
must rely to regulate the prices of the prod
ucts of industry, for I cannot consider with
complacency the alternative to which we
would be driven If competition were elimi-
mated. l sincerely hope that we will find
sufficient protection against the efforts to mo-
nopolize or unduly restrict the field of COM
petition, In the natural impulse to enter
profitable business; and if these corpora
tions, however large, can be put and main
tanned upon lawful basis, confidently be-
lieve that industrial monopolies cannot en-
dure.

Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 16.-In his In
auSural address at the capitol to-day,
Governor Cummins said:
Senators, Representatives and FelloW-Cll-
zens: I gratefully acknowledge my deep ap-
probation of the confidence and good will OF
my fellow men. and I am solemnlys conscious
Of the obligations I have undertaken and the
responsibilities have assumed.
The honor Of the office now enter is out
ranked by but one OF all the places Of trust
and distinction known to the institutions OF
the republic; and if it's duties were as diff
cult as its honor is great I would have little
hope of diseharging them either to your sat
isfaction OF my own but, happily for you
and for me, government in this state has at
tanned climax of steadiness which gives
me courage to begin the work SO generously
committed to my hands.
Industrial Combines.
The rapid accumulation of wealth and it's
unparalleled concentration were the distin-
gushing characteristics of the last decade of
the nineteenth century. These characteristics
have propounded a new inquiry for govern
mental investigation. The subject has, by
common consent, received a name which,
though once appropriate, is now altogether
misleading. Commercial combinations and
industrial trusts have provoked much thought
The most manifest evil of these tremendous
aggregations is their effect upon competition.
Competition is the paramount law Of indus
trial life. 1t may, and very often does, de-
stroy; but, in my Judgment, it must exist in
full vigor if we do not desire the government
to assume the power of fixing the prices of
industrial products It must be clear that if
single corporation owned and controlled all
the transportation facilities Of the United
States, it would be absolutely necessary for
the government to prescribe and enforce the
rates for transportation service. 1t Is equally
clear that If single corporation controlled
the manufacture Of the important commodi-
ties required by modern life, and the monop-
ely was likely to be long continued it would
be necessary for the government to fix the
price at which such commodities should be
sold. It cannot be successfully denied that
every consolidation, even though it does not
draw in all the products in which it deals,
narrows the field Of competition.

Labor and Capital.

The government, as it seems to me, has
at least one duty to perform in this connec-
ton. 1t is vitality interested in seeing to it
that the men who can never rise to that
prominence which will enable them to fully
protect themselves, shall receive that re-
ward for their labor, and shall be surrounded
by such conditions, as will make them good
citizens. I believe that the power which
wealth bestoWs ought sometimes to be
checked, and, through wise legislation, the
rights Of the weak and helpless more care
fully preserved.

Tariff and Reciprocity.

Permit me also a brief consideration of the
tariff and of reciprocity. In this presence
need hardly reiterate my-profound conviction
In the wisdom of the policy which has levied
tariff duties, not for revenue alone but
to equalize the conditions under which manu-
featuring has been established and carried
on in the United States and the conditions
which have existed elsewhere. 7 firmly be-
lieve that we are more deeply indebted to
this doctrine for the gratifying position we
hold in the affairs Of the world, than to any
other cause.
cannot resist the conclusion that some
changes might we'll be made, not through the
medium of reciprocal treaties, but directly.
said recently in public address, and re-
peat it, that there is one condition witch
the consumers of this country will not en-
dure. They are patriotic enough to see
American goods sold in foreign markets
cheaper than they are sold at home, If the
purpose is to establish a trade or to unload
an unexpected surplus; but they will not
tolerate, as a permanent trade policy, the
selling of goods abroad at less price than
they are sold at home"
