"Mr. President and Gentlemen: We ha,

than any that has taken place since n
close of the civil war. we appeal not onl
TO republicnns. but 10 all good citizens WI
are Americans in fact as well as I'm nam
TO helm us I'm rocIecting President McEiI
lev. IL was indeed of Infinite importanc
to elect him four wears ago. Yet the nee
Ia even greater now Every reason the
obtained I'm his favor obtains now. an
many more have been added Four year
ago the success OF the populistic demoC
racy would have meant fearful misery
fearful disaster at home; II would hav
meant the shame that Is worse even thar
misery and disaster. To-day IL woul'
mean all this and In addition the immeas
urable disgrace of abandoning the prouo
position we have taken, OF iiinching from
the great work we have begun. President
Mckinley has more than made good al
that he promised. or that was promised
on his behalf, and as the smoke clears
away we see how utterly trivial are the
matters because or which MS aumlnis-
tration has been criticised, when COM
pared with the immense substantial gains
for American honor and interest Which
under that administration nave Deen
brought about. We Appealed for fresi-
dent Mckinley before asserting what ne
would do II president from our kho"i-
edge OF what ne had done IN lesser po-
sitions. Now we appeal for him asking
that the promise of second term be
judged by the performance OF his hrst,
and pedging that the wonderful work so
triumphantly begun In his first term shail
In his second be carried To an even more
triumphant conclusion.
1--WE ask support for President Mckinley
hnElIIgn N has
what he now stands for and typihes and
because Of the marvellous work That has
been accomplished under ms admihlstra-
ton. We ask the support or All upright
citizens because against MIN are arrayed
the forces of chaotic evil. because OF the
breeding menace to our moral ana Indus
trial welfare which is implied in the pres
ent attitude and purpose of the populistic
democracy.
1--WE know definitely what we believe and
say 1t outright our opponents who repre-
sent all the forces OF discomfort. malice
and envy, formed and formless, vague and
concrete. can hardly be said to know what
they really do believe because the princi-
pies they profess, II put forth markedly, are
so revolving, even to their own followers,
that they Ike at least to try to wrap
the mantle of hypocrisy around them
They rant about trusts. but they have
nothing practicable To advance In the way
