BOYLE LOOMED.
CONTINUED from First Page)

Kansas, this great industry has come
under absolute state control. That's
what the people want. That represents
results.
You have given the people today
the spectacle of a cOurageou conven-
ton, a novelty in Kansas. You have
taken a thing by the throat and crush
ed it to death, a thing that has been
an abomination to man and God. No
other convention could have done this
as you did it.
I'VE don't need so much law we
need the courage to enforce the law
we have. What we want to do is by
the cOura geouS demonstration of manly
conduct to bring before the public the
fact that the American people will
stand no more foolishness. This is the
mission of a reform political concep-
ton.
Il would not be just if I did not pay
a tribute to those gallant and progress
sive men who are welded to the cream
of right, the progressive Democracy
that met in convention at AtchiSon- We
should forget all prejudices and every
PopuliSt should go back to his home
and grasp the hand of every true Dem
ocrat They are divided from US by
name only and united in principles.
Neither should we forget that other
wing of our combined force, the Free
cans only in the memory of glorious
achievements, and are Americans today
supporting the principles which we are
advocating.
Personally, I want to say that 1
would go as far as possible in aiding
the national administration to carry
this war to a successful termination.
This is not a partisan war, put a war
of the American people against oppreS-
sion Therefore we should vie with our
Republican brethren in patriotism, not
forgetting in the meanwhile to keep
them close to the issues.
