'Mr. J. Fred. G. Talbot, in reply to my re-
mark that wore scarfpin of bursted shell,
given me by the original man behind the guns,
Charles A. Morgan, stated that it was due to
Mr.. Talbot that L was permitted to wear the
emblem, taken from a ship sunk at Santiago.
'Mr. Talbot makes the astounding claim
that there would have been no cruiser Balti-
more-in fact, no navy-but for him.
II will admit that my opponent has done
something for the Navy, yet we find it record
ed in the Congressional proceedings that he
voted against the Naval Appropriation Bill in
the Forty-seventh Congress and against an APP
preparation of 81, 600 to build the nucleus of
a navy, as proposed by the Forty eighth Con-
gress. 1t is generally believed that William G.
Whitney was the father of the Navy that was
ready for the war with Spain when it came,
and not Mr.. Talbot"
Mr.. Ensor said: 1.-THE Democrats are hard
hit when they have to attack Mr.. Page on the
RTOuHU tudI u6 Is I'LL uukuOWu IudIl Ill Lu6 us
trict. Mr.. Page is a sef-made man, with an
honest record and constant promotion in the
government service, who is running against
professional candidate, whose chief friend at
Washington is Arthur P. German, once page
in the Senate.
IF our tariff is to be revised, let it be done
by the men who now are the timbers in the
house to be altered. We may need to prune
the twigs or branches of the tree of protection,
but who would put an axe in the hands of
Bryan to fell the oak at its roots? Will you
cut down the protection it has afforded to see
cheap foreign labor scamper over its branches,
take your places at half the wages and destroy
your firesides?
Preservation is the first law of nature. The
Democrats have been crying free trade, but
how can they furnish the article, even if it
were desirable. when there is still in the Senate
Arthur P. German, who tackled 600-od6 pro-
lection amendments to the Wilson Tariff Bill
wrecking the Cleveland administration and the
BILL too? President Roosevelt has struck the
keynote of the campaign and created conster-
nation among the Democrats by his stand in
favor of controlling the trusts and eliminating
the unlawful
I'VE cannot destroy all the beneficial cor
porations in order to get rid of the bad ones.
President Roosevelt has promised reciprocity
for Cuba, and it is idle for Democrats to attack
