^ M'OULLOUG-H FOR SENATE. \ Announces His Candidacy Together With His Platform?Various Issues Discussed. Ij^ie State. sSfGreonvillc, Jan. 20.?Joseph A. is a. candidate for Unit?& iSt'afes sen ait e. lie issued the l?Xpllo,wiuj? this evening: |K3\> the Democratic Voters of wg'South Carolina: I 11" 1 'irtve (^l'idod to outer the race E jjpi' the United States senate, subject' R 10 the action of I ho Democratic priHy'y J realize how unsatisfactory iHs ' 'V>"1 ^'10 candidate and to (lie l|j|pcr> for me to attmep't to outline ' "n ti'e nature of a platfan, for tille reason that there are many questions with which a scntjjl" of the United iStatos will have deal, that the voter will be more "g'ely governed by his opinion as to o qualifications of the candidate an by any platform he may an"I believe that Ilenry Watterson rsel.v stated what should be the ynote in the coming Democratic mpaign, 'Back to the constitution.' "Given a man'-s conception of at document, and the respective !>hts of the State and federal govinnenls thereunder, and if he bo nsisieii't, his -position wutli referee to almost all the other questions ming before tlu> national congress r solution, can be predicted with nosl as absolute precision and acracy as the position of a planet 100 years from now. "As to the construction of tire condition, I belong to the school of lilioun and Jefferson. I believe at an application of that instruct, thus interpreted, would lhave rmanently and in a satisfactory inner adjus't all the great questions at occupy the attention of the neriean people, such as the tariff, lists, finances, taxation and the rhts of the Slates. "1 believe in immediate tariff resion and reciprocity. 1 believe in icni'iur American products to the trkets of the world and wojild llier rely upon the natural law of pplv a ml demand t>o maintain ices than the artificial expedients a protective tariff. 'I believe in protecting the Anieriii laborer against a lower standard wages and living llinmgh the i-?x of undesirable immigration, end ||jf>u the other hand 1 favor stiniulal^ ||ing immigration of a desirable class. I''Thai is lo say, men and women of sound body, of sound mind and of tonnvl morals and who can become easily assimilated to American civilization and wlvo can help, us in our fiiiht to maintain Anglo-Saxon supivmacy and lire perpetuation of & American ideals and American iuf stiiut'mns. As to the method of rel,f strict ion (the ad\inability of which II seems to be conceded by all those f| "wli > lvave given any thought to the ^ l-'Sub.iect. irrespective of 'oarty affilia4,tioi?>?, I concur in the suggestions wuade by the conimiss-irner general of Mrmni^rali-m, Mr. 11. Sargent, in Shis leport upon thr subject for 1J)0;>, ^Mind which embodies r!i< physical, the khioimI. ihe iivlellectual arid tne finanEg| '; [ believe iiiat tariff reform woull , wfflBinove the foundations upon which |ki,'us|s and monopolies rest, and these MIon 1.1 at once fall of their own inIB^renl weight. ? "! believe that the national legisfBl'ture should deal only with natio.ial hcslion.-. T am in favor of guard|;;j|g especially at the present time pl*;)lh ji-alous care the rights of the g&rte.s and would stubbornly resist l ipy encroachment upon these rights; I believe that such questions as .M@vorc.e,> 'insurance,' 'factory i;iM||j||}etion laws' and the laws concernthe 'relationship of master and fi^pi'vant' which engage so much of iU(l| t ime and ait.tent ion of our nationBgjjjlflegisl a tors, should be relegated to ^ the time and attention of our legisla/ Twills ' 'n the fight, of the State ^^Madopl its own domestic policy, P^ocerning all matters of which the , |;-f<jdera.l government has no jurisdie Hi without outside interference, ?H| T believe the federal govornlaws should not practically ^^& fy the wishes of the people con Ijfi^ing such local matters (prohibifor instance) by permitting, un'^(lfiMilic guise oif regulating commerce, * ^TO^fewhich the State law prohibits. Wf'MM- I'egnrd the rights of the State rfPjicrod that I oppose bartering ^them away for a mo.? of federal .believe in the right of the itidif to earn his bread by the' sweat pIpigE brow and T favor those laws il^l^guaraivt.ce to him a just rccomfor the labor expended. believd that it, is the function ;^tf|pvernment to issue money, and fo*<$hat reason favor tho ewtabli.V.ipi| of a central national bank, whoso province it will be to protect oflier banks against the disasters produced by panic-stricken depositors, and come to the relict' of any community in case'of a stringency in the money market. "1 believe . in peace?universal peace?an*) favor aiibitration as a settlement of all questions, both international and intranaitdonal, in so Far as tho federal constitution permits This I deem to be essential to the preservation ol* the nation. I am opposed to war and believe that the command oF Cod, 'Thou shalt not kill,' should apply 'to tihe nation as the individual. L believe that the measure of people's power should not be their ability to slaughter their fellowmcn. "l.i making this campaign, 1 do not intend ito spend "barrels oil" money,' even for legitimate purposes, as it has been suggested thai a candidate For the United .Slates senate niu>.fi- do to be elected. I will not do this For two reasons. Tn 'the iirst place 1 haven't it to spend, and in the second place 1 think it more important to t'lie State thait the inddvidual should exeri-ise his honest, conscientious judgment without any sort of interFerencc or undue persuasion. after investigating as thoroughly as lie can the capacity and qualifications of the various candidates jihan that 1 or anybody else, should occupy a seat in tihe United States senate. If il has come to this in South Carolina that it requires the expenditure of a large sum of money for one to be elected to the United States senate, the sooner the fact is demonstrated to tihe satisfaction oF the people the (better. "1 will not flood the voters of the State wi'th letters and literature of all sorts. Of course, I want your support, if. after investigation, you feel that you can conscientiously give it to me. That is w-hait L am running for. "1 have great confidence in tihe ultimate judgement of the people as to all matters submitted to them, anil although, as a circuit judge once said in reference to our jury system, they sometimes shot with a ' waibbling gun' nine cases out of ten they ill it the bull's eye. "In conclusion. 1 believe that you will extend to each and every one of us who may enter the contest, that courtesy which Henjamin Franklin once suggested in a letter introducing an unknown: 'Do .him all the good ofI lices and show luini all the favor that on further acquaintance you will find him to deserve.'
