Mr.. Van Dusen began his remarks
nv saying that nothing he could ex-
press would adequately describe what
Republicanism stands for. He referred
to the history of the party, and
thought that the real issue of the cam
paign is whether or not we are going

the local nominees and eulogized each
one of them in turn. In referring to
Mr.. Connell he said that his Republic
canism has never been questioned and
that his close attention to duty in con-
gress has earned for him Il place
among the foremost members of the
house.

man Connell's action in bringing
about an adjustment of the miners
strike, and added that during the sus-
pension of operations not one of Con-
nell & Company's employees We're re-
fused the necessaries of life at any

to fellow Republicans. He explained
the meaning of Imperialism, militarism
and the so-called trusts and clearly
defined what the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio Of Is to
l is. In speaking about the increase
granted the miners, the assistant dis
trict attorney expressed the belief that
