BRIEF STATEMENT OF THE ppm,''
ANNOUNCED BY HON G. 4 c 4,''
DIDATE FOR CONCREs s m T NJ |
1. A Democrat.

Investigation, observation and ex
perience have fully imbued me with
an unwavering adherence to the well
defined principles Of the Democratic
Party, as founded by Jefferson and
promulgated by his successors to the
present day.
II. State Rights.
Our government is a Federal Re-
public composed Of independent, au-
tonomous states 1t is limited to the
powers enumerated and delegated to
1t by the states, and all other powers
(not delegated) are reserved to the
states Such are the express terms
of the Federal Constitution itself.
These reserved powers were intended
to afford local self government to the
people of eacn of the several states,
and also TO withhold these sacred
rights from the Federal Government
The founders CT this Republic
wisely sought to avoid the cent? ali
cation Of power in the general gov
eminent. They reserved to the peo-
pie, the individual, the home and the
state, all the natural inalienable
rights of the people. Herein lies the
hope and destiny of the republic.
III. The Tariff.
The present tax or tariff schedules
are unreasonably high, and should be
reduced These taxes were originally
designed to raise revenue, but the
beneficiaries of protection have OBJ
tanned rates that are burdensome and
oppressive upon the farmer. the Ia
borer, and all consumers. The unre-
lenting efforts in the last four years
to reduce the taxes upon the surplus
wealth of the rich and leave the bur-
dens upon the small producers and
the consuming millions, should be OPP
posed and condemned.
w. Farm Relief.
The real relief for the farmer must
consist in reduction of the cost of
what he must buy, an enlarged and
foreign market for his surplus. The
tariff policy of high protection Is the
worst enemy of the farmer.
v. Labor.
AS between labor and capital, there
is community of interest; each is
indispensable to the other, and each
should enjoy fair treatment Neither
should be allowed to Cypress the
other, or interfere with just rights.
Organization and collective bargain
ing is the right of labor. just as fully
as incorporation and association is
the right of capital and these rights
should be protected by even handed
Justice to each side.

she knew exactly what she was writ

away with Padraic O'Shea. Where
they were going for the present she
would not say, but later he would be
informed of their whereabouts-this
word pleased her also--and he could
serve the necessary papers on her for
divorce on the grounds of desertion.
She believed that was all she had to

from her a small parcel which would

The day. as its dawn had promised,
was overcast and a raw breeze had
sprung up. She felt chilly without
a wrap of any kind and. going into
the first fur shop she saw, bought
long stole of gray squirrel. The fur
was comparatively inexpensive In
those days, and Celia felt that she
had made a very wise and moderate
purchase for her now limited means.
Folding the stole, so all her own,
contentedly about her, she walked on
until she came to a smart shop, into
which she had often glanced with in
terest but never entered. Hilary had
preferred designing even her sport
clothes, and as a result she had al
