REPUBLICANS FOR PROTECTION,
Sir let us turn from the region OF
doubt and double dealing the debat-
able land to the region of assured GER
talnty. The Republican party STANDS
for protection. II stands for the gold
standard and our currency system. All
these dwell In legislation enacted under
the lead Of the Republican party and
against the most determined opposition
of the Democratic party, including It's
leader and candidate. These being our
policies, and having been most useful
TO the country, we have confidence In
and love them. If II be necessary
from time to time that they should be
strengthened here and controlled there,
the Republican party stands ready with
loving, competent hands, to apply the
proper remedy, | say remedy" Be
ing our policies, we will not willingly
subject them to their enemies for slow
starvation on the one hand or to sud

SINCE 1897
Since the Republican party was re-
stored TO power, in 1897. under the lead
of Mckinley, our country has pros
pered in production and In commerce,
as It has never prospered before In
wealth we stand first among all the ma

~ brought to successful conclusion.
Under the treaty Of peace and our ac-
tion. Cuba Ia free, and. under guaran-
tees written IN her constitution and our
legislation, It Is assured that she will
ever remain free. We also acquired
Porto Rico, Guam and the Philippines
by treaty the ratification OF which

WHAT PRESIDENT HAS DONE.
In the history Of the republic, in time
of peace, no executive has had greater
questions to deal with than yourself
and none have brought greater courage
wisdom and patriotism to their solu-
ton. You have enforced the law
against the mighty and the lowly with
out fear, favor or Partially. Under
the Constitution, you have recommends
ed legislation TO Congress from time
TO time, as II was your duty to do,
and when II was passed by Congress,
have approved II. You have, under the
Constitution, led In making a treaty
which was ratified by the senate and
Is approved by the people. which not
only assures, but, under the law and
appropriations made by Congress, pro-
ceeds with the construction Of the
Panama canal.
DOING THINGS"
The Republican party under your
leadership. keeps its record from the
beginning under Lincoln of doing
things, the right thing at the right
time and in the right way, notwith-
standing the opposition OF those who
oppose the right policies from the selfish
or partisan standpoint. They dare not
tell the truth about your official action
or the record of the party and then con-
denim IT, They can. for selfish or par
tisan reasons. abuse you personally and
mlsrepresent the party which you lead
1t Is true. however, that, so far, their
abuse of your action and their alleged
fear Of your personality Is Insignificant
aa compared with the personal and par
tlsan earnings against Lincoln, Grant
and Mckinley when they are clothed
with power by the people Those whose
only grievance Is that you have en-
forced the law and those who carp for
mere partisan capital VIII not, I'm my
Judgment reap the harvest of success
The Republican party for you and UNI
der your leadership appeals to the great
body Of the people who live In the sweat
Of their gaces, make the civilization
control the republic. fight its battles
and determine It's policies. for appro-
val and continuance IN power.
