SEC. WILSON IN MICHIGAN.
Confines His Address Principally tc
The Tariff.

Bay City. Mich, Oct. A-Secretary of
Agriculture James Wilson was the prin-
cipal speaker at a Republic rally, to-
night Devoting his address principally
to the tariff, the secretary said in part
vigorous efforts are being made by
the department of justice to break up
combinations whose object is to put up
the price of food products after they
leave the farm. The breaking up of
these and other monopolies will cheaper
the price of foods and the cost of liv-
ing. These exactions put the price of
some food beyond the people.
1.-THE last national Republican platform
promised notifications of the tariff.
Some things of value were accomplished
by the Payne law. Reductions were
made where conditions justified them.
Protection has been given to our indus
tries.
1--WE should grow everything at home
suited to our soils and climates. We
now produce 100000 tons of beet sugar
annually, but still pay for imports of
sugar about sloO,OOOOO0 yearly. Our
Northwestern states can and should make
our sugar from beets grown on our own
soil We should have protection until
, our farmers learn TO grow beets."

Gov. Marshall
Speaks in Albany

Albany, oregon, Oct. 24.-Gov. Mar
shall of Indiana, spoke here, today,
asserting that the political parties,
which attempted to use the method of
ancient Roman leaders in handling the
American people, surely would bring
disaster upon the government of the
United States.
Bread and circuses were the two
things that the Roman leaders used
to keep the people in line" said Gov.
Marshall, and, today, in this suppos-
eddy advanced political age, we find
two of the big political parties in this
country using the same old bread and
circuses in their efforts to get control
of you people.
But | for one, do not believe that
our citizens are going TO be fooled
and cheated by the political leaders
who offer all prosperity on the one
hand and amusements on the other, in
exchange for control of this govern
ment.
II believe the American people are
too sane to acceed TO any such charm
but | want to urge them to take their
government back into their own hands
before ii is too late
Gov. Marshall said that over-capi-
talized political leaders were becoming
as great a menace to the welfare of
the country as over-c capitalized cor
porations

NOT ROTTEN TIES
That Caused Fatal Wreck, Oct. 3, on
NJ. u, NJ. n. G. n. at Westport, CT.

New Haven. ct. Oct. A.-Denial of ale
cations that rotten ties caused the wreck
at Westport on Oct 3. in which several
lives were lost, is given in the following
statement issued here by the New York,
New Haven e Hartford Railroad
''The track was inspected by the in
spector of safety appliances of the Inter
state Commerce Commission and by thu
engineer of the Public Utilities Commits
sion of the state of Connecticut fmnle-
diately after the wreck and pronounced
in good condition.
THE renewal of ties for the season
was in progress and had been nearly
copleted and but few ties marked for
replacement remained IN the track at the
time of the wreck, and none of these was
In the eross-over traversed by the wreck
ed train.
.'This is the normal condition obtain
ing on the best maintained railroads In
the United States and the existence of
such ties In the track did not and could
not affect the safety of operation.
1.-THE ties in question were from 500 to
500 feet west of the wreck and were not
involved and not in any way related
to It,
THE fact that the track In the vicinity
of the cross-over and the cross-over 1t
self has been used continuously since
the accident, without any changes hay-
ing been made in it. shows the good con-
dition of the track and speaks for itself.

their product is exceeding their capac-
ity. No able-bodied man, who wants

that an increase of Is cents day has
been given the laborers in iron plants

the tendency everywhere. The admins
tra.ion under which this prosperity
has come, is standing before the peo-
pie for collection
Mr.. Wickersham declared that it
was no mere accident, which brought
this happy condition OF affairs under
President TAFT. He commended the
President for using the veto power.
THAT the steel mills and wooden
mills and other manufactures are run
ming full blast instead of standing
idle-mute witnesses to the Democrat
ic folly--is due wholly to vetoes," he
said
Mr.. Wickersham said that But for
Col. Roosevelt there would be no pos
sible doubt OF the continuation of this
prosperity, for nobody contends that
the Democrats alone could bring about
the defeat of the National Republican
ticket
He charged that Col Roosevelt did
not expect to win but hoped to gain
strength enough to pull the Progress :
sive party together and win in 1916.
