Mr.. Garrett Makes a Good Speech at
Upper Falls.-Nr. Robert Garrett, Republic
can nominee for congress in the Second dis
trict, made an excellent speech last Saturday
night in the Casinoat Upper Falls, Baltimore
county, to largeatnd enthusiastic audience.
He said in part: sic.

compare the arguments of the campaign speak

Empower says we point with pride and the
party that seeks to gain possession of the Gov
eminent says We view with alarm
lin the present instance, however, the Re-
pubIicans can well point to many achieve
ments, especially of the past three years. that
are not only in themselves great tasks well un-
dertaken and splendidly carried out but ones
that are orwill in the future be of vast moment
t0this country and to the world as whole.
No difficulty daunted the President and his
advisers when they arrived at the threshold of
a serious problem that was far-reaching in its
CONSEQUENCES. He did not hold back through
fear of disastrous NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. either to
the country or to himself-but acted as he
deemed right and best. That his judgment
was sound has been demonstrated by existing
circumstances after many months and even
years have passed.
t,His courage has been notably shown in
two matters that were widely and also wildly
discussed throughout the land and on account
of which passions were aroused to an extraor-
binary pitch among those immediately affected.
I refer to the influence he exerted in behalf of
the people to bring the great coal strike of 1908
to an end and the persistent efforts he made to
cause Just punishment to be meted out to the
corrupt officials in the Postofice Department.
In striving to settle these matters the President
was pestered with letters and messages threat
sening all kinds of dire happenings and among
sother things he was told that his political ca
sreer would end Immediately if he continued in
his course This did not deter him. as you
know, for, like another parsonage of national
renoWu but one who is no less worthy of es-
TEEN, Mr. Roosevelt would rather be right than
President-for second term. He aspires to
succeed himself as Chief Executive, but this is
a secondary consideration when concrete case
of right and wrong is before him.
"In the election that is approaching the
choice we have presented to view is not one
over which we need to ponder long. The issue
isvin great measure simply between certainty
and uncertainty, between an upright and coura'
l,xen.zzs statesman. supported by a goodly mum.

training, supported by an equally large num-
Der of men who are for the most part of I'm.

cally and are also Of great renown, but it is moi
that sort of renown to which righteous men
usually aspire"
Mr. Garrett arrived in the 18th district early
iin.the day and was taken in charge by Mr.
Charles G. Snavely, who drove him about the
district and introduced him to many people
He dined with Mr. Snavely and took tea at the
home of Mrs. E. A. Harlan. Later large
party in vehicles of all kinds and, headed by
the Long Green Band, started on the march
for Upper Falls, where the meeting was held
Mr.. Garrett was cordially received everywhere
and made an excellent impression with all
whom he met. He also spoke at Belair the
same night.
