We declare that no tariff is justi-
fled unless it's effects reach the
pay envelope of the worker in
higher wages.
We propose to handle the trusts
by the creation of a new indus
trial commission, somewhat on
the lines of the interstate COM
merce commission, with the wild
est powers of investigation, super
vision and regulation.
We also propose to attack d.
rectly some of the most obvious
evils of modern industrial life.
We stand for a program in
Alaska where we can try the ex-
pertinent of various radical pro-
posals, difficult or impossible to
try out in the rest of the country,
such as government ownership of
railroads, telegraph and tele-
phone lines; government leasing
of coal and mineral land, etc.
Here is a program that is an
honest attempt to grapple with
new conditions. 1t offers hope to
the worker. 1t assures the OBJ
tanning of the information by
which alone we can hope to solve
the industrial problem. Upon
this program the progressive par
ty asks and deserves the support
of the people.

few is powerful monopoly by
which the people are robbed. The
excessive tariff is familiar to
all.
Here, then is tremendous
series of problems calling for
new remedies. The old republi-
can party and the democratic
party are both hopelessly split
upon these modern questions.
Nothing can be hoped from them.
The republican party is controll-
ed almost wholly by the corpor-
ate interests, and the democratic
party is, in large part, SO con-
trolled. The progressive party,
on the other hand, is a united
party and presents new and
promising program.
Our first proposition is that
government has drifted from the
hands of the people into the
hands of the great corporate in
terests, exercised through an al
lance with the political bosses
of both parties, who work for
their own pockets all the time.
Nothing can be done until we get
the government back into the
hands of the people.
On the tariff, we declare for
the principle of protection, limit

production here and abroad, to be

He says the banks refuse to adj

PANTAGES

There were two bright places
on the bill at Pantages last
night. One was Miss Hazel Bess
Laugenour's demonstration OF
her difficult swim across San
Francisco bay; the other, the
impromptu "single" of Miss
Genevieve Schrader, who was
called in to fill the place
of Eleanor Otis & Co., Miss Otis
being too i'll to appear.
In the moving pictures of Miss
Laugenour's daring aquatic feat
one partially realizes the heart
breaking strain under which the
swimmer labored in her battle
against tides and currents and
the terrific undertow. The rest
of her act is unique. Miss Lauge-
nour appears in a dance which
displays the movements of the
swimmer in a graceful and easy
manner. Closing the act, the cir
plunges into a patented tank In
which the water is flowing IL
miles an hour, and makes head
way against even this current.

BY George l.. Record.

I&C itteoEus
The times demand a new pro-
gram of reform which neither of
the old parties can produce.
The new party has, therefore,
been formed upon a new pro-
gram. The great issue is the
more equitable distribution of
wealth. The country feels that
some get more than they earn !;
others, the majority, get much
less than they earn; others, the
majority, get much less than
they earn. This is the essence of
slavery, which, as Lincoln said,
was the world-old fight to pre-
vent one man from saying to
many men, "You earn the bread
and j will eat it."
There are many disQuieting
signs. Hugh fortunes are piling
up in the hands of the few. The
prices of the necessaries of life
are steadily rising. and wages, If
they increase at all, do not keep
pace. In hard times thousands
of people are thrown out of
work. In the great cities the
! horrible poverty of large longest
ed sections, with the incident of
sweat-shop labor, alarm all
thoughtful persons. The census
shows an average wage of less
than $500 per year, too little for
the support of a family.

BOY FALLS;

Carl limbs, a 17-year-old mes

The extent of his injuries have

AS he was rounding the sharp
curve at the end of the bridge
he fell from his bicycle and roll
