MCKINLEY AND ROOSEVELT.

ton did wisely in the selection of the
candidates for President and Vice
President. The utmost harmony pre-
vailed during the greatest enthusiasm.
President McKinley's denomination
is eminently proper The wise and
patriotic course of his administration
is in harmony with the views of the
majority of the people of the United
States. Never in the history of the
country has a President commanded
the respect of all civilized people in
the degree that Mckinley does. He
has dealt with all questions ii the
spirit of fairness with candor, discre-
ton and conservatism. He has kept
in accord with the sentiment of his
party and with the patriotic sense of
the nation. The four years of his
administration have been unparalleled
since the civil war. The country has
been relieved of financial embarass-
ment and failure and now enjoys an
unexampled degree of prosperity and
confidence. Our country has passed
through wars involving questions of
paramount concern to the state and
welfare of others; and through all the
great events in the nations life it has
emerged into an unbounded respect
and worldwide Importance.
The stride of this government has
been greater within four years past
than ever before in it's history; and no
nation has ever met new conditions
with such distinguished success and
cordial approx alton. No nation has
made such progress in SO short time
and followed its victories With such
browning glory. To the wise judg-
ment of President Mckinley has this
government met it's new conditions in
the spirit of fairness and gratitude.
The climax of the great convention
was in the nomination of Theodore
Roosevelt for Vice President. It was
a political drama never before known
in the political history of the country.
Contrary to his desire Roosevelt was
nominated for Vice President in de-
mand of the American people as a
recognition of faithful service in war
and unquestionable integrity and rug
ged honesty in civil duty.
Teddy's nomination is an inspira-
ton. He makes no personal sacrifice
in it's acceptance. The name of
Roosevelt is the vitalizing force in the
campaign. No other man could bring
the enthusiasm and strength which he
brings. A man of force and courage
he wins the applause and honor of
men. He is wise in statesm anship
and bold in action. He is a potent
factor in the destiny of this country,
in its strenuous life and character of
nations. He is the man of the hour,
as our country sweeps past isolation
into the realms of worldwide infu
ence. In politics as in morals Roose-
Welt represents the truest and best
type of American manhood.
The Office OF Vice President has
been exalted. It is not the political
shelf of formerly. It is not the sepul
cher of political ambition. Arthur
distinguished the place. Hobart ele
waited it, and Roosevelt will make it
the stepping stone four years hence.
His wise counsel and courageous
temper will be felt in the administra-
ton of the affairs of this country.
The Republican ticket will be cleo
ted on platform of principles that
is no make-shlft; no experiment, but
tried. The prestige of victory is felt
as our flag floats ever the broad ex-
panse of general prosperity and ex-
tensive commerce.
Under the shadow of this flag will
be found our standard bearers, wheth-
er lifting the oppressor's heel or re-
pulsing the tyrant's cruel blow.
mo man, having put his hand to
the plough and looking back, is fit for
the kingdom of God What was
true 1000 years ago is true today.
The United States government is
dealing with questions which were I'M
known few years ago, and the policy
