land his candidacy is meeting with
the most cordial appreciation of Re-
publicans everywhere He comes out

good will of without having ex-
cited any fractional feeling on the part
of any defeated candidate. Chosen

associate candidate chosen from the
great empire state that is also doubt
full, man who represents the indus
trial and financial interests of that
great state, standing on a platform
which boldly and pointedly champions

by our constitution in every part of
our land; which affirms the doctrine
of protection to American labor and
manufactures, both of unassailable
record, the candidates of the Republi-
can party will win i'll this election and
the one man rule (and a very poor
sort of man at that will he at an end.
