ing he said;
The question of prope control OF
corporations is one of the most i'm
portant in this campaign. The Demo-
cratic platform declares in favor of
this control and demands that such
measures shall be adopted as will stop
the present abuses. We ask for legis-
lation which will define and forbid GER
tain reprehensible acts now freely
practised by certain corporations in this
State, Inc which will wipe out forever
the methods which have made our
State a reproach. What the people
need at present is a proper readjust-
ment and regulation of corporations.
We do not require the kind of reform
which will result in panic or unsettled
business conditions. but a reform
founded upon common ems honesty
and well balanced judgment, such
sense. honesty and Judgment as is pos
sessed by our distinguished candidate
for Governor.
we promise, if elected. to uphold
the Democratic Governor in accom-
plishing this reform, SO that this State
shall return to its old position as the
protector, not the destroyer, of the
peoples interests. We believe in az
ton rather THAI words. We promise
only what can actually be performed
and we propose to perform what We

both referred to the high cost of liv-
ing and of the attitude of both Con-
gresham Parker and Wiley on Can

Lodges question. What are the Dem
ocrats scolding US for now" The
speaker said that the principal thing
e Democrats had to charge the Re
publicans with was the unholy al
lance between the special interests,
the privileged c'"es and the high tar
if machine in Congress. That alliance
had resulted - the sale of privileges
by the high tariff machine TO the high
tariff beneflciaries. and enormous cam
paign contributions by the interests
benefited. 1t was mutually beneficial
and the people paid for it in the
higher cost Of living. Tha alliance
was driving thousands of Republicans
into the ranks of Democracy.
