A CONSTRUCTIVE PARTY.
1.-The locomotive is not the chattel of the
millionaire. 1t is the family horse of eighty
millions. Ours is the constructive age and
ours is the constructive party. But the
smoke and din of industry have not denied
us thoughts of other things. Putnam
turned from his pillow to fight the battles
of the revolution. America turned from her
anvil to fight the battles of Cuba and under
masterful guidance of Mckinley those
battles were brief the iron was yet not
when she returned.
Then strange and sudden duties came
and strangely and suddenly the Republican
party met them. Needless OF clamor De-
lieving that fate is always constitutional,
opposed to governing people without the
consent of the governed, but favoring the
development of SavageS without the con-
sent of the developed, we went to the
Philippines with school teachers and civil
engineers and representative government
and a little while ago when Governor Taft
returned, after two years of American ad-
minlStratiOn, the natives cast MOWERS before
him, and, standing upon the SeaDoard,
waved farewell until the horizon descended
upon his homeward voyage. This is the
Republican party's answer TO Imperialism.
And in Cuba we suggested an organic
law, embodying not Latin impulse, but
from ever becoming the prey of foreign
avarice; we conquered yellow fever for her
and for our Southern States as we'll; then
we lifted our flag from Moro Castle, I'M
furled her one star emblem, bore to our
man-of-war the bodies of our soldiers, and
as we left that harbor friends of Liberty
everywhere exclaimed at last nation has
come grand enough to make another ma
ton free
This is a great district, we produce al
most everything and next month we are
going to produce the next Governor of In
diana-Warren G.. Sayre. Then in Novem-

Il learned my Republicanism from a gen.
tleman who was present when the party
was born, from a gentleman who rocked
its cradle and lived to behold it the grand
est band of nation builders of our world
And in the morning of this century it is

I'm the old household all our leaders
are revered and from the wreath of her
glory our party has a flower to place upon
the tomb of every mighty marshal of her
legions from Abraham Lincoln to Marcus

tender to you my thanks.
The crowd wanted more oratory after
Mr.. Lands had finished and called on Wal

Sayre: There were calls for DR.. Good, but
