PRAISE FOR

Insurgents Say That Indiana

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, April 6-While the
White House to-day had nothing to say
I'm regard TO the attitude of Senator Bev-
erldge toward the Payne-Aldrich tarin
bill. as expressed I'm his speech before the
Indiana state convention yesterday. the
utterance was the subject Of considerable
comment elsewhere in Washington
It is probable that President Taft will
let the Indiana situation severely alone.
despite his championship of the tariff law
at all times. When he recognized Bev-
erldge as the head Of the party In the
Hoosier state he turned over to him alb
solutely the management Of the campaign
and gave him carte blanche as TO the
tariff Undoubtedly tho President desired
an endorsement of the Payne-Aldrich bill,
but rolled on Beverldge TO do the right
thing for the party. It was reasoned that
even insurgent Republican victory is bet
ter than total defeat
while the regulars are to-day deploring
the "insurgency' OF the Indiana platform.
the Insurgents and progressives are more
than satisfied with the way Beveridge
handled the matter.
"'rhe people of Indiana are TO he con

Iowa. senator Beveridge now stands on
the firing line OF tho battle which has
become nation wide. for defense OF public
rights against the evn influences which
are seeking to capture the government.

The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-08-15
Candidate for United States Senator
on Republican Ticket.
He Believes In:

First-Adjust the tariff in the in
terest of the whole people. Tariff
problems should be solved by unbiaS-
ed, honest men, so that congress may
act speedily and justly, without dis
turbing business and without the
enormous expense of lengthy and
special sessions.
Second-Strict laws should pro-
tect legitimate competition in the in
terest of all the people; regulate
trusts; dissolve and prevent criminal
combinations. Red tape and bureau
cratic methods should be eliminated
Court procedure should be simplified,
to enforce rights. and redress wrongs
with economy and dispatch.
Third-Wo and farmers
should organize for self protection.
American labor must be protected
from foreign competition through the
tariff and by the exclusion of Oriental
and other undesirable immigrants.
Fourth Public service corpora
tons should be required to give rea-
sonable service at reasonable rates,
not based on watered stock, and to
bear their just portion of taxation.
Fifth Arid lands must be re-
claimed and deserts transformed into
fertile areas The portion of our
state east of the mountains must be
transformed into one vast, produc-
tive region.
The East shall not administer our
affairs and exploit Western resources,
giving nothing in return. The Pro-
digal Son, having squandered his own
substance in riotous living, shall not
appropriate our fatted calf Our nat
ural resources must be conserved and
perpetuated, without destroying legit-
innate industry and development,
without imperiling the prosperity OF
the present generation.
Generally, Mr.. Ashton demands
the emancipation of mankind in our
island dependencies; prohibition OF
child labor; completion of the Pana-
ma canal; maintenance of foreign
markets; stability of the currency;
establishment of the merchant
marine; governmental protection OF
savings; honest administration of af-
fairs in Alaska.

He is Endorsed BY:

The Republican party of his home
city and county. The Pierce county
convention at Tacoma, July Is, over
whelmingly endorsed Mr.. Ashton for
the United States Senate. The con-
vention was composed of nearly 1000
delegates representing all parts OF
the county. AS an evidence of the
esteem in which he is held in his home
city, Mr.. Ashton will carry his own
county with practically solid Repub-
lican vote.
Declaring Mr.. Ashton to be their
choice for the United States Senate,
delegates of Clarke county in conven-
ton at Vancouver, July 20, endorsed
him practically unanimously, only two
dissenting votes being cast. 1t is
freely declared that the Columbia
river counties will be solidly for Mr..
Ashton.
Representing a membership of
over 5000, the Railway Mems Club of
Tacoma has endorsed the candidacy
of Mr.. Ashton. The club is composed
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers, Order of Railway Conductors,
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen, and the Switchmen's
Union of America. Copies of the res
olutions of endorsement have been
sent to men in the railway service
throughout the state by the Tacoma
club. The resolutions set forth that
whenever during the past 20 years
the railway men have been in need of
counsel or advice they have always
found Mr.. Ashton ready and willing,
without fee or reward, to give them
every assistance in promoting objects
on which their organization IS based.
The Swedish American Club OF
Pierce county, with a membership OF
upwards of 1000, within short time
after Mr.. Ashton announced his can
didacy for the Senate. met and adopted
resolutions of endorsement Of him and
his platform and pledged themselves
to give him every support IN their
power.
Following in the footsteps of the
Swedish society, the German Amer
lean Verbund, society of German
Americans more than 800 strong, ad-
opted strong resolutions of endorse
ment of Mr.. Ashton's candidacy and
of his platform. The same resolution
was adopted by the Swiss Society of
Tacoma, an organization with over
$50 members.
Many other organizations OF his
home city and county have rallied to
Mr.. Ashton's cause and aside from
this, endorsements have come in from
all parts of the state. The strength
of the Tacoma candidate is growing
steadily and rapidly.

He is Qualified for the High
Office.

James M. Ashton has been resi-
dent of Washington for the past %
years, coming here as a young man
from the East.
He is in every sense of the word
a self made man, having struggled
through Universities as trying as any
that fall to the average poor man.
He began his career as a cowboy,
and rode the range with the hardest,
from the Pan Handle to the Canadian
line.
From this humble beginning he
has risen to be the peer of any lawyer
in the State of Washington. He is
recognized nationally as an authority
on constitutional law. He is conced-
ed to be in the front rank as mari
time lawyer and in this class of client
age has built up an immense practice
on the Pacific Coast. Mr.. Ashton's
ability as a lawyer was SO we'll thought
of in Washington that he was selected
to conduct the cases of the lumber
men of the state in their fights against
the railways to prevent the proposed
advance in freight rates in what was
known as the 40 cent lumber rate
case and to handle the fight for the
opening of the Portland gateway by
the Northern Pacific railway, another
celebrated case, conducting the fights
before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. and the courts. 1t is a note
worthy fact that each of these fights
was won by Mr.. Ashton.
Mr.. Ashton throughout his politi-
cal activities has been a staunch and
progressive republican. He has his
place in National politics and has
wide acquaintance among the public
men of the country which will give
him decided advantage over any
other man who could be sent to the
u. S. Senate from this state.
Mr.. Ashton has large property in
terests, not only at Tacoma, but in
the Southwest, the Northern and
Eastern parts of the State, thus max
ing him thoroughly familiar with all
sections. On account of this wide
knowledge of the State he would be
thoroughly able to go into the Senate
knowing what each particular dis
trict needed.

tiers in the Atlas building last night.
the members were treated TO an IN
teresting talk on business ways IN the
Orient by Frank J. Hewlett OF the
firm of Hewlett Bros. company, who
recently returned from trip through
Japan, China and the Philippines. Mr..
Hewlett did not attempt TO lecture,
but simply related his experiences
and observations in a very interesting
aud well connected way. His talk on
the manner in which the japanese
and Chinese do business was edifying
to the local merchants He gave some
very interesting details as 10 the pro-
duction and sale Of tea and spices.
Mr. Hewlett said that it was a pc
culiar fact that throughout Japan the
Chinese handled the money. He said
that England and Germany are fast
bottling up the trade in the Orient.
While the United States held the oil
ana -four trade quite firmly, this coun-
try is falling behind others in general
lines of trade.

BLACK JACK USED
IN CARD QUARREL
w. D. Peterson Receives Sc
riOuS Injuries, But No Ar
rests Are Made.

As the result of disputes over card
games, Ed Cook, a member of the
staff of the White Swan gambling
house. 60 East First South street, is
accused of having attacked w. D.
Peterson with a blackjack at First
South and Main streets yesterday.
Peterson may lose the sight of his
right eye. He is at St Marks hos
pital Attending surgeons fear that
dangerous, symptoms may develop
from the badly lacerated eye.
No effort has been made to arrest
Cook Immediately after Cook had
attacked Peterson the police were in
formed. They have been watching
the condition of Peterson at the hos
pital, and should serious developments
arise it is likely that Cook will be
arrested. Cook has for years been
identified with First South street
in police and gambling circles
The specific reasons for the sudden
attack by Cook upon Peterson seem
to be under a cloud, as lar as the
police are concerned It is known,
however, that Peterson has recently
gambled at the White Swan tables
with unusual success.
As near as authorities can learn
Cook and Peterson met yesterday at
First South and Main streets. It is
claimed that Cook called Peterson a
'fraid-cat:" Peterson resented this.
with the statement that he would find
other places to play at cards Cook
drew a blackjack" from a hip pocket
and beat Peterson almost into insensi-
bility. Members of the gambling fra
ternlty called a private ambulance
and had Peterson removed TO St
Marks hospital

AlDRICH SUMMONS
REPUBLICANS TO FRONT
CONSUMED From Page one)

the last session, when the warfare be-
gan in the House over the speaker
snip and the adoption of the rules
Some locate the beginning of the split
as far back as the Fifty-ninth Congress
and trace it down to the suddenly wild
ening breach of last years harmony
on the majority side, especially In the
House.
The inability of the two factions of
the Republican party to get together
is the immediate cause of danger to
the legislative program Each side
blames the other. The insurgents say
the fault lies in the arrogance and in
tolerance of the longtime leaders of
the majority toward the progressive
policies represented by most of the
Republicans of the middle west. The
regulars charge the insurgents are
simply trying TO destroy the Repub
lican party by attempting to discredit
it's time-hOnored leadership and prin-
ciples. and to ride over the ruins to
power.
The striking thing about the whole
situation. to the impartial observer, is
the evidently sincere conviction by
each party that it is, itself, loyal to
Republicanism and wholly in the right,
and the other is either willfully re-
creant or fanaticalIy self-deceived and
is more or less consciously band Of
public enemies. The battle has as
sumed deadly and certainly historic
proportions. A good many politicians
looking beyond the moment. are ask
ing what angle the struggle will take
in the next Republican national con-
vention.
Meanwhile the Democrats In both
houses are looking on with a Go to

The present trouble. says Mr.. Hager,
dates from March last, when a crowd
of Chinese soldiers broke out of garri-
son in the walled city of Soochow and
attacked some foreigners from Shang-
hal. About the same time, at Canton,
there was trouble between Americans
and the imperial troops. Then came
the difficulty at ChangSha, when the
missionaries were attacked and their
compounds destroyed. The immediate
action taken by the American govern
ment in sending gunbOats to HankOw
