peFlIy ana business activity are SOOd
enough for us now. The eyes of the
American people are open so that they
can compare them with the past years OF
business depression, OF destruction of
home industries, OF low prices for all our
products and the enforced Idieness of our
working classes.
Our people have had enough OF demo-
cratic proni4es. Their promises have
been excellent, but the fuItlment of them
has utterly failed. | have heard of a lit
tie girl who was much afraid of large
dog belonging to a neighbor. The owner
OF the dog tried to calm her fears by tell
ing her that the dog was perfectly harm
less, affectionate aud good-natured, and
to emphasize her words said, "Don't you
see how good naturedly he wags his
tail?' Yes said the little girl, in no
way assured, "but that is not the end I'm
afraid Of" This illustrates our relation
to the democratic party. The promise
end has continued wagging good-na-
turedly and necessarily, but that isn't
the end we have learned to be afraid of.
