The battle cry fnl. Cook county was

Richard Yates. of the MAR COVER
nor of Illinois. was the sta. in the GAL
axy of candidates that talked, He made
striking stinile of the ship ofsstate and.
well-managed boat that had safely
conveyed him across the wa ters OF i4aks7
Michigan few days ago He argued
that the ship of state under the abs
management of William Mckinley. as
sisted by the republican workers of the
country. had projected the safety and
prosperity of the American people for
the last four years. and that the trial
trip would b. followed by a regular
four years cruise beginning March A.
1901.
Perry S. Heath, secretary OF the ma
tional committee, came to give greeting
to- the inability of Chairman Henry O.
Payne TO be present. He eomplimented
the organization in the county upon its
unity and coheaivensss and told the
spectators that upon them deyolNed the
real work of the campaign.
He declared il seemed strange that Il
should be necessary to struggle to con-
tinue the present administration in
power. with the situation which con-.
fronted tbs. country wages Shooting
down American soldiers in the Philip
pines, almost War in China, a War Of
humanity concluded in Cuba and Porto
Rico. and with our Representatives sput ~
ting their wives daughters and sisters
to the sword in a foreign land. He in
sisted that the handssof an adminiatra-a
i tion should BE- upheld which Was ems
gagged in the task of putting soldiers
forth to protect Americans abroad.
Candidate Yates addressed hia re-
marks TO the 1.200 precinct workers of
s Cook county. After speaking Of the ne
Y cessity of orga nization and reciting his
varied experiences in party work, he
ssaid
II realize am looking into the faces,
of men who under William Mckinley
have done their part during the last
four years in guiding the ship of state
Upon its decks there rest the safety and
prosperity of the American people. !
am not here. however, to make sugges-
tions. to advise. dictate or even direct
beaus. you are under the leadership of
capable men.
appreciate the value OF organiza-
ton. In the nineteen years that i1avs-
elapsed since ! attained my majority l
have been a newer of Wood and sdray-
ser of water In the ranks OF the4republi-
can party. When the republicans are
we'll organized it s a sure slgn we are
marching 70 victory. Whenever We
have been diaorganiZed or careless in
the formation of our ranks We have
usually gone down in defeat As cams
here tonight the thought occurred j na
that undoubtedly there We're many dem
ocratic workers who wished earnestly
that some bugaboo like Imperialism
would come along and draft all these
workers here present and send them
out of the country for the next SIX
months.
Never in my lifetime have believed
more in republican principles and doc
trines than I Go today There is a ship
Of state after all and wheh guided by
y humanity. Democratic mariners are
like the sailor VINO fell asleep and
passed the north star.
In times past th4y have found diff
ferent stars With which they raised
their campaign cries and they have
passed the mall. This time they HAYS
4 found twin stars and intend to guide BY
both. They are the stars of militarism
and imperialism. | know of no states
where imperialism exists in this country
excepting states where the democrats
control.
Liberty is where a man is ruler OF
himself and Imperialism whore allthe
people are ruled by one man. In Kan
sas City July there was The creates,
example of Imperialism eyer seen il
this country, when the Man in Lincoln,
from hie throne in Nebraska. dictated
that the 1910 plank should b. inserted
4 In his party platform. Ii was an ex-
ample Of the great silver oligarchy. Thu
republican party is not party of i'm.
perialism. but party Of liberty. and Il
completed the work Of the great Wash
ington when thru Abraham Lincoln tht
shackles We're struck from the limbs o.
millions Of black men and they We're
made free. The republican party is III,
y party of the people and Of the union
the party that never hauls down tn.
American flag.
