 Now in arranging those duties we na turally have regard to four things;
 The amount of revenue we want 70 raise from them.
 Their arrangement in such way that incidentally they will bear hestv- Lest on luxuries.
 3. Their arrangement in such way that incidentally so far as may be, they will give any protection to our own manufacturers necessary to enable them to compete on fair terms with foreign manufacturers in the same line. This will be affected partly by making raw materials for manufacture
 A. The arrangement of duties in such way that incidentally, so far as may be. they will not work immediate and serious injury to factories estaib- lished in reliance on a high protectfve ! tardff. si.
 These are my views .and I believe they are views of Conne6ticuf Demo crats generally. They are not the prin- eipIes of the free trader
 ssIt is then the soul of American government that the people rule. E There is a party; there always has been a party, an the United States; which stands peculiarly for the main tenance of this government by the people and for the people It believes : any subject, when they are dealing with any large question which they can fully understand; when they are appealed to on a moral sense, they vote right
 To this party most of us belong. We are proud of the name of Demo lcrat We are proud to ayow our faith in tho American people.
 Vcs want them to have the benefit of whatever laws can justly do for rrera 11<zr< r1r4r rs<sTr1ra
 We want an adznfnistra ation of the Jaws which gives no special privileges to . favored few
 Let me for instance recall to your fae Democratic party has been sale- Feeasful In 1ntr9ducIng and enforcing there in Connecticut during the last -four years.
 Our laws allow any three men to associate as corporation for any law of agreement in two pubIic offices, and the thing is done If It is a regular 5pInt stock corporation, for public prof 1t our statutes require the capital stock to De pssid up at par. in cash or. ats eqtrivalent Some Of the promo xArs of trolley companies have, not wahl,standirag worlzed through past Slegiszatures, In devious wayss special charters, al1owfng them to issue stock 1or less than par. or practically as a. bonus
 When the people honored me with the office Of governor, took the democratic stand against this, and inststed that every special charter, for that same little provision written ins that no shares of stock should be iF- sued except for cash or it's equivalent at par.
 prevented the passage of some chartern Some blamed me because e%Fz Fv1 f4a resf,f lie i1nprcwemenfs in transportation facfIitz&a Tne leader of the repubH- can party n khe honse let a charter he waa beseAIne droR and die. rather not right that 1t should be put in ?
 h this country of the people. the party to belong to is the party that most fully shares their life and thoughtTthe democratic parry.
 appeal to the den1ocradc party of Connecticut to seize this hour Of their opportunity
 For the third tirne sarce 1909 they have a chance to elect a governor.
 Tor the first time since s1s75 they ! the United States Tn 1912 they sent to Washington a solid delegation to kthe house of Representatives. Now ig the time to pash one step farther. It 1a Important for Connecticut to send Sfneu able to represent democratic prtnciples on the floor of the house if0f representatives But it is doubIy afnportant for her to send men able to Represent democratic princi ples on kfhe floor Of the Senate The senator Iwhonn you elect will go to the cap EifaI Of the nation as the representative of the state Of Connecticut. She has interests to guard. She has factories which are sensdtfve to changes in rev enue or inspection laws She has tranaportation companies which en- gage fn wide commerce between the stafess as to which they are under the control of federal com missi ons She mas system of banks. with heavy deposits looking sornetir mes with apprehension, to the committee rooms at Washington She has ports, where the foreign shipping trade can be largely extended, and which a dernocratic congress has recently passed laws to foster. We must see that that there is no rule of retro sression put upon such extensions. Connecficut has but fives votes in the house of representative as against IS from New York, Se from Pennsylvania, 27 from Illinois,. but in the senate she has, by an irrevocable Fdght. as many votes as the great est of them Who shall cast that vote after the fourth of March, q 1915 :? 1t is for the deHnocratfcs 8arty of Connecticut, aided by the fndepend- ent voters Of Connecticut to say
 Tt is for them to say whether they will return to the senate a senator who, however estimate he may per sonal1y be, pronounced before his par fy in it's state convention, that the policy of our great president towards Mexico had not deserved to be digni- fled with the name of policy, but was an imbecile drift, except so far as 1t was a mfschievious meddfing in con- cert with a notorious bandit.
 Every senator of the United States IS a member Of the grand council of the nation for the conduct of our for gm relations. No treaty can be ne- gotiated save with it's consent and ratification.
 Suppose the present govern
