from the fact that D large crowd at

filing the opera house, there was little
that was remarka BILE in the event.
Governor Roosevelt avoided all refer
ence 10 the financial question except to
assert. indirectly that the Democrats
had seen their own issue discredited
and the Republicans had fulfilled their
every promise. He regretted the lack
of time in which to discuss all the is
sues. but spoke briefly, dividing the
time with three other speakers, Senator
Carter of Montana, c. +. Allen OF Salt
Lake city and Curtis Guild of Massa-
chusetts. The meeting was over at 10
o'clock.
Almost no enthusiasm was mani
tested, although there was considerable
mild applause for the vice presidential
candidate. especially when ne referred
TO the military superiority of this gov
eminent and the patriotism of it's peo-
pie. Mr.. Roosevelt read at length from

He spoke very slowly, his chief gesture
being to strike his right fist into his left
palm with great frequency and with
increasing vehemence as he progressed

He said in part:
In 1896 we took definite and unmis-
taxable position. upon the issues of the
DAY, formulating our position on the
hnanclal and economic questions. so

promising prosperity for the policy for
which we said we talked. Our oppo-

Of following our policies. l ask you to
Judge our promises by our perform
anceS and their prOphesy by the actual
event We have done exactly what we
said we would do, and we now stand
Tor the continuance of the same fnan-
cial and economic policies which we
championed four years ago. We are
advocating the same policies which
have brought us prosperity: you will
see that the prophesies of our oppo-
nentS have been falsified by the events
We have to ask you to fix these policies
which have worked so we'll and that
You distrust the men whose prOphesies
have so Signally failed"
