you remember four years ago the

than the effort to preach the gospel Of
hate and envy as between men.
What we want to-day is to continue
at Washington the men and the meas
ures that have obtained and been put
in practice there during the past four
years. You know the old proverb, Old
man, let well enough alone and it is
good rule to follow, especially when well
enough is pretty"
Governor Roosevelt addressed two

becoming the hero of the democratic
party"

of my position, I have talked with
many of the men. They say they are
not in favor of a strike, but when the
order takes effect they will stay at
home rather than combat the struggle
of their fellow workers, From all pres

not all striking, stay at home when the
