QUAKER DEMOCRATS
SCORE TARIFF BILL
Labor and Capital Should Have
Every Right, So Platform De-
clares, but Recent Strikes Are
Deplored-0ther Features.

HARRISBURG, Pa. Aug. 5.-The
Democratic state convention was held
here wednesday. Perfect harmony pre-
vailed. The following ticket to be
voted for in November. was nominal
ed:
Associate justice OF the supreme
court. C. Larue Munson. OF Williams
port. -.
state treasurer, Former Congress
man George W. Kipp, Towanda.
Auditor general, ]. Wood Clark. In
diana, Pa.
The convention adopted the follow
ing platform:
After declaring for freedom Of the
press. of conscience and of speech,
and the equality before the law of all
citizens. the platform report is as fol-
lows:
I'VE again insist upon the enact
ment by the legislature Of the state
of laws giving labor and capital their
Just rights and call for the enforce
ment of antitrust laws and particH-
larry of the XVIII article of the con-
stitution of this state. declaring that
the public service corporations for
transportation shall carry out the pur-
pose for which they are chartered anu
that they shall be limited to that bus
mess and shall be prohibited from d.
rectly OF Indirectly producing or man
ufacturing articles for transportation
over their lines except such as are
necessary for their own use.
LABOR TROUBLES DEPLORED.
I'VE deplore the continued existence
of labor trouble in our commonwealth
affecting important Industries and
vast numbers OF people and counsel
moderation, concession and arbitra-
ton so that fair dealing and adjust
ment may be reached.
Nwhile we concede 10 capital and
employers the utmost protection guar
anteed by the constitution and the
laws, we maintain that labor has the
right also to that protection which
comes through organization and
union.
"As an imposition upon laborers and
wage earners we condemn the pending
tariff law passed by the house OF rep
resentatives and declare that it's pro-
visions are in direct violation Of the
promises Of the Republican party and
its platform and as framed for the
benefit Of special interests and against
those who purchase the necessaries Of
life"

Police Captain Beavers and Cali Off
GERS Jackson and Brooks found White
and Mrs. White. ipltheir room in the hotel
and placed them in.custody. They were
taken to the station house about an
hour after the shooting occurred.
Atty. Paul r. q. Johnson, who has Of
fees in the Century building, has been
retained by White and he has instructed
both Mr.. and Mrs. White to make no
statement of the shooting or about the
incidents that led up to II.
Before he was placed on the operating
table at the sanitarium Tuesday even
ing Anderson made what is said to be a
full statement of the affair and this
is in writing and is in the hands of the
chief of police. The statement was
made to Captain Beavers.
Captain Beavers made a strenuous eff
fort to get some of the particulars of
the shooting from Mrs. White, but she
appeared annoyed and said but little.
She alleged that the shooting took place,
not in Anderson's room. but in the hall
way, near the elevator. 1t is said that
White also claims that the shooting took
place in the hallway.

Posey were watching Mrs. White. They
say Mrs. White take a pistol with which
White shot Anderson, take the empty
shells from 1t and reload it. They say
that she then attempted to shoot herself.
She very Indignantly denied this all the
time and said that she was entirely inno-
cent of any wrong and had no reason
whatever to take her own life.
Soon after the shooting telegram was
sent to A. B. Anderson, of Knoxville.

tifying him of the shooting. In response
to this, Mr.. Anderson and DR.. and Mrs.

hope that today would witness the end Of
the present special session.
The conference report or the urgent
/ deficiency appropriation bill was agreed
to by the senate at the beginning Of the
session today. The report was not
changed in any respect. The house had
already agreed to the report.
CALLED FARM FOLK"
| The people of his state, he added, had
been referred to as farm folk" while
the state itself had been declared to De
unreliable. given to populisn and greens
bsckism. Iowa, he insisted, had always
been true to Republican standards and
still was unfolding the best interests OF
the protective policy.
Here" he said, I'VE have had the spec
tacle of men compelled to bargain with
the authorities which control the senate
for the protection of their own people.
Majoritles are obtained by a system OF
reciprocity arranged in the citadel OF pro-
lection"
Presenting a statement prepared by the
treasury department, Mr.. Doliver said
| it showed the rates in the cotton sched-
iule were increased over the present Law
/ all along the line, and some of them as
/
And yet" he said. 'the statement has
been made here that only minor and In
significant changes had been made In that
schedule. The American people are be-
ing duped with that kind OF humbug and
Misrepresentation"
Contending that there was no raw ma
terial in this country, Mr.. Elkins ex-
pressed his regret that the so-calied free
raw material campaign had ever been
started Labor had been expended upon
these articles called raw material, and
he believed that whenever they were sub
sected to foreign competition they should
have been protected by the tariff.
| Senator Warren entered upon an ex-
tended denunciation of the hide and ieath-
er schedule. The manufacturers. he said,
| had agreed to accept free boots and
shoes If they could obtain free hides. but
when they got free hides they repudiated
their agreement
Showing much feeling during the course
of his address Mr.. Warren called upon
Senators Aldrich and Dick to say what
they thought of the doctrine OF free raw
material.
All declared that they did not approve
| of the idea of admitting hides free OF
duty. Mr.. AIdrich said he knew OF no
Republican and no protectionist who "a
vored the doctrine of free raw inaterials
as understood by Mr.. Mills and Hr. Cleve-
land Very similar replies were received
from Senators Bristow. Dolliver, Olney
and Flint, who were called upon to stats
their views.
