NEW YORK, Aug. Ex-senator Han

crowd, more than could be accommo-

ance, on the Issues OF which depends

plause) stands for everything which

Quotes From Roosevelt.
81 Will now quote from one of Cover.
nor Roosevelt's Speeches recently de-
lIvered by him in which he says: Ev-
cry man who loves his country is CALI
ed upon now to stand shoulder TO
shoulder to maintain the prosperity
grft rttG CO p1, hot to,
materially true.
There have been two object lessons
presented TO the people OF this country.
Until 1892 under Republican admlnIs-
tration, We found ourselves in pros
parity. the spindles were all busy In the
factories and industries were busy on
every hand. Then came a change. The
people said they wanted change and
they got 1t. z,.gf
u will not picture to you how labor
wns then out OF employment and how
month after month 1t grew worse. You
know all about that MS well as can tell
you. -5I5l1
The people then wanted another
change and they got II. And what q
change II vas and how the spindles
began to spin again In the factories re-
sultins In happy homes and iresIdes
all over the land. zl..9g sl.--s
Want No Change.
Now do You want another change
and go back to the conditions that pre-
vailed In 1897? (cries Of NO! No!,)
Then you must do your duty. I
want New Jersey to set an example TO
the country-one that shall be seen and
recognized all over the land. Cap

"over-conhdence is the worst feature
OF this campaign. No one can be
blamed for confidence in what the out
come Will be after three years OF Presi-
dent Mckinley. but remember that ne
have an enemy which may be called the
Cuckoo" party. which Is composed OF
men OF every shade OF political opposi-
ton; every crank and every nihIllst,
They are all against US! We must be
active and It is TO impress this upon
you that am here tonight. and to tell
you your plain duty. In conclusion let
me say, you must not neglect It."

Curtis Guild. jr.. OF Boston. who spoke
Mt length on the issues of the cam
