FREE TRUDE NOT ffl OF WILSON, HE ASSERTS We Must Weed Out Industrial Garden That We Have Been Cultivating. He Says. CLEVELAND. OHIO, Oct. 12.—Gov ernor Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic candidate tor president, in a speech here denied that he was an advocate of fe e trade He said there can not be free trade in the United States so long as t’.ie established fiscal policy of the Federal government is maintained. The Federal government,” said the governor, "has chosen throughout the generations that have preceded us to maintain itself chiefly on indirect in terest of direct taxation. I dare say we .hall never see a time when it can alter that policy in any substantial degree, and there is no Democrat of prudence, or thoughtfulness, that I have met who contemplates a program of free trade.” The candidate devoted most of his thought to what has now become known ls his pet theme— special privilege. He spoke with more than usual ear nestness and eloquence on this subject and roused his hearers to a high state of enthusiasm. In a burst of generous spirit, not al ways encountered in candidates, Gov e-nor Wilson declared that he yielded to no man in his personal admiration of President Taft. This sentiment elic ited rounds of applause. He also paid a warm tribute to Senator LaFollette, again applying to him the term of “The Litt’e Giant of Wisconsin” —the candi date declaring that he felt a kindred spirit to all those in the ranks of pro gres. ive Democracy, regardless of their labels. In outlining the tariff policy of the Democratic party, Governor Wilson spoke in part as follows: Weed the Garden of Industry. What we intend to do. what the houee of representatives has been at tempting to do ntid will attempt to do again, and succeed, is to weed this garden of industry that we have been cultivating. If we have been laying at the tools of our industrial enterprises 'his fertilization of protection we have found that the stimulation was not equa' in respect of all the growths in the garden, and that there are some g.ntvths which every man can distin guish with the naked eye, which have so overtopped the rest, which have so thrown the rest into destroying shadow, that it i- impossible for the industries of the United States as a whole to pros per under their desolating obstruction. In other words, we have found out that this that professes to be a process of protection has become a process of favoritism, and that the favorites of this policy have flourished at the ex pense of all the rest. We are going iftto our garden, therefore, and weed it. We are going to give the little plants air and light in which to grow. We are going to pull up every root that has so -pread itself as to draw all the nutri ment of the soil front the other plants. " e are going to see to it that fertiliza >°n of intelligence, of invention, of origination, is once more applied to a of industries now threatening to be •tagnant. because threatening to be too much concentrated. That is the policy "f the Democratic party in regard to the protective tariff, as I understand it” About Taft’s Vetoes. in speaking of the present condition "■ the government, Governor Wilson ait! that it was neither flesh, fish nor ’ so far as party control is con fined. He said that in the senate, a inion of Democrats and so-called Re ins have been, sending a Repub '<an p- sident measures which are nns-.stently vetoed, and arguing, from 1 11 hypothesis that the next congress "oulo b progressive, in both the house . r!

That is the only thing that has ever afforded salvation or safety.” Governor Wilson affirmed that the problem confronting the American peo ple was not one of revolution, but of readjustment. “And what I want to suggest.” said he, “is that the only basis, the only standard of readjustment, proposed os suggested by our opponents is the standard of principle. The expediency of the situation is merely to see to it that those who receive special privi leges behave themselves, whereas our principle is that nobody ought to re ceive or retain special privileges at all; that every special privilege shall be de stroyed, not with a ruthless hand, not in such a fashion as suddenly to upset the conditions of business, but. never theless, with the firmness and kindness of the judicious parent. For the gov ernment of the United States, at pres ent, is a mere foster child of the special interests. It Is not allowed to have a will of its own. It is told at every move. ‘Don’t do that. You will inter fere with our prosperity.' When we ask.

It would seem as if America were about to see a ' generation grow up which must be a generation of employees, unless it makes up its mind to be a generation of masters. The great militant, fight ing, triumphant America the world has known and admired is a nation of offi cers. a nation of men who are their own masters, a nation who will originate their own processes of industry and of life, and we shall never see the day, I confidently predict, where America will allow itself to be employed and i patronized and taken care of.” Must Redeem Our Trust. After declaring that the people of the old world had realized their dreams of liberty in America, mentioning particu larly Hungary and Italy, the governor concluded with the following eloquent ' words: “We are trustees of th* confidence of mankind in liberty.

MGUSTATfMNG TO STOP STRIKE Labor Council Agrees to Citi zens’ Plan to Mediate the Street Car Trouble. AUGI'STA, GA., Oc, 12.—With five companies of the National Guard under arms, Augusta is quiet today and no rioting is expected. The fact that all of the saloons ale closed and no cars are being run after nightfall reduces the possibilities of disorder. Augusta Is about as dry a town as any in Georgia. The action of the Central Trades council last night in agreeing to a prop osition made at a meeting of citizens to appoint a mediation board composed of live men to try to bring about a set tlement of the car strike is expected to prevent a general strike in sympathy with the carmen. Nothing will be done further in regard to the sympathetic strike until next Wednesday night, when the trades council holds a regu lar semi-monthly meeting, if a call for a special meeting is not issued before that time. Tlie guard at the power house has been doubled and would-be rioters, re membering the shooting of three citi zens by the militiamen some time ago, are not expected to start any trouble. The strike of carpenters and tinners that stalled yesterday has been In dorsed by the Central Trades council. Good citizens here from the ranks of the merchants, professional men, capi talist- and tradesmen hope that Au gusta will soon be normal again. H. H.

MONTENEGRO, OcL 12.—Along a hundred-mtle battle line Turkish and Montenegrin troops are fighting in Albania today, with Scutari, base of Turkish operations, the prize for which they are contending. ,The Turkish troops, retreating after over whelming defeat, rallied today and for a time threw back the Montenegrin pur suers, but again had to take to flight under the heavy cannonading of the Montenegrin artillery. Continued success crowds the efforts of the Montenegrin troops. One de tachment attacked and captured the Turkish fortress at Rogame. near Tuzi, in a night attack, taking the Turkish defenders prisoners. Fighting has now been continuous for over 80 hours, and more than 3,000 have been killed and wounded on both sides. Hundreds of Turks have been taken captives in the engagements at Det chltch mountain, at Schipchtnk hill. Berana, Rogame and in the battles around the blockhouses west of Scutari, on the southern banks of the Bojana river. Dispatches received today from Gen eral Martinovitch, Montenegrin minister of war, who Is leading the troops op erating in the west, stated that he is marching eastward, with Scutari the objective point. His army will co-op erate with that of Crown Prince Da nilo. commander-in-chief of the central division, in attacking the Turkish stronghold at Scutari. Terrible Scenes in Hospital, Terrible scenes are presented at the hospitals here at the Montenegrin mili tary headquarters. The hospitals are overflowing with wounded from the front. There is a woeful lack of med ical attention, due to scarcity of physi cians and nurses and medical supplies. Many of the wounded are dying from lack of attention, despite the fact that the government is doing everything possible to care for the victims of Turk ish bullets. King Nicholas visited tha hospitals today, and as he walked be tween the cots of the wounded he stooped and kissed the forehead of each soldier. The king wept at the sight of suffering all about him, and spoke words of cheer to those who are not mortally wounded. King Nicholas has given orders that the Turkish prisoners be well treated. They are being placed in a compound, guarded by Montenegrin soldiers. The Turkish commander who lost the battle of Detchitch mountain, where he was captured, was received today by King Nicholas as a guest. Tile Monte negrin king talked for a half hour with his prisoner, and assured him that the Turks would receive humane treatment from their captors. General Martinovitch will first attack Fort Taraboche, a Turkish military post, which commands the entrance to Scutari upon the west. Its captura means the fall of Scutari. Long Range Guns in Use. General Martlnovitch’s division is strongly supported by artillery. When the advance upon Scutart started from the west. It was realized that long range guns would be necessary to storm, the western citadel, and a battery was taken for this purpose. With all the strategic points in tha vicinity of Berana in the hands of the Montenegrins, the capture of that town is expected hourly. General Vukovitch is in command of the column which is operating there, and he reported to headquarters that, he was advancing upon Berana. with bright chances ot success. Turkish territory north and south oi Montenegro is being plundered for pro visions for the Montenegrin troops in the field. Trains, protected by convoys of soldiers, make daily excursions sot various kinds of foodstuffs. Although the Mallssori tribesmen, the Christian tribe natives in Alba nia, have not entered into league with the Montenegrins, they are co-operat ing with them in the war against the Turks. Six thousand tribesmen are at tacking the Turkish rear south of Scu tari. WIVES GO TO FIELDS TO SAVE_FRUIT CROP LEWISTON. IDAHO, Oct. 12.—The housewives of this time have been hav ing the times of their lives for two weeks camping in the orchards, or at least spending their days there and returning home only for well earned rest. Everybody had to be content with “quick lunch” meals or go to the restau rants. When the rush of the fruit harvest came there was no response to the call for help in the orchards. Some one suggested that the women could do the work and they were appealed to. They responded with alacrity and worked dll. igently until the danger of damage was past.
