II see before me many old soldiers,
members of the q. A. r. | am glad to
welcome them here today. We are not

publican party is in favor of patriotism.
What we want is little more patriot
lem and little less anarchy. We want
TO remember that the freedom to make
laws does not give the freedom to break
them. Williams, one of the signers of
the Declaration of Independence, has
said: Our blood can better be spared
than our principles.' and a great New

sale but not our principles
What we want is revival Of patriot
lem in the United States, and protection
is part Of patriotism, for protection
stands for our country and our flag"
