times by applause and when he had
concluded he was cheered and applaud

plause SAID, in a voice which was thick
and loarse:
SENATOR THURSTON'S SHORT
TALK.
Fellow Citizens: You see what your
climate has done to my voice, and I
would find it very difficult to speak to
you if I had the desire. I am very
glad indeed to meet you here in con-
yention assembled anu I sincerely hope
/ that the action that this convention
VIII take will meet with the support of
the people, and that your nominee may
come to the congress of the United
States in order that you may secure
what is for your best interests and
what Congress is ready to give. have
been delighted to meet the people here.
think 1 never looked out upon finer
audience than that which / addressed
on Saturday evening. 1t has been
pleasure and a high honor to have the
privilege of speaking to you. 1 would
be glad if 1 could DO you any good by
speaking today but do not think there
are any converts to be made in this con-
vention. You are here to work for the
people and the party have charged you
with the mission. I wish % tender to
you my sincere thanks for all your
kindness and my best wishes for
your success in convention and at the
polls.
II heartily agree with Senator Bur-
ton. I never knew any good to come
from political contest which was car
ried on on personal grounds. I never
knew any good to come to a person or
party who carried on contest on other
than the highest and most honorable
way. If we nave no issues beyond men
then our institutions are failures. If
we have no principles to press because
they are worth advocacy for the pros
perity and progress of the whole peo-
government.
1.-THE success of great party means
the advocacy of great principles. Polit-
ical action is secured by harmonious
movement by the different people who
compose the political body. Every man
who becomes a part of a political or
ganization must surrender his individ-
ual preferences and be willing to abide
! by the decision of an honest majority
of the party. No genuine Republican
can afford to leave this convention han
after the majority of this convention
/ shall have declared it's wishes with any
/ other thought but of loyalty and devo-
| ton to the candidates nominated. To-
day when you have assembled here you
| have laid aside your differences and I
think and believe that you will leave
this hall ready to rally around your
party and to loyalty support the NOM
inee of this convention.
II thank you for the kindnesses and
L wish to repeat that it is my hope that
when we get the returns in November
next that we will find that the people
here have put themselves in line with
the great Republican party, which
stands for the best interests OF the en-
tire people of the United States
When Senator Thurston concluded
Judge Kaulukou in an eloquent address
moved a vote of thanks to the Senators
which was voted by the entire conven-
ton standing and the convention ad-
