upon which this government must
rest, and that the violation of the
oath of office is little less than treason.
, He believes that the constitution of
the United States and every amend
ment thereof should be rigidly en-
forced. and that its violation by what
ever subterfuge or Indebtedness of eX-
preston should be condemned and
remedied. He is for these good and
sufficient reasons, the man whom the
people of every section and in every
walk of life want for this high office.
First of all, the powerful Christian
and moral sentiment of the nation de-
mands his nomination, and every Chris
tian and moral agency will be exer
cised for his election.
The laboring interest demands him.
The farmer as with happy heart he
gathers in his bounteous harvest
stands ready to do battle for his return.
The miner who in contentment digs
away in the bowels of the earth sees
in him his salvation from oppression
anu 0uCIOdCniuelll.
The business man, the capitalist to
whom this administration has brought
abundant success eagerly await his
nomination. So surely as he is nomi-
mated by this convention today, so
surely will he be elected by the people
in November.
With his nomination and election
what an inspiring prospect opens up
before the party and the nation? With
it will come new efforts to promote a
greater prosperity. and a larger meas
ure of happiness to all who dwell with,
in our borders.
With it will come that calm and
peaceful assurance, that while pros
+! perous, happy and contented at home
"a Mise, safe and skillful diplomacy
guards and protects our every inter
est throughout the civilized world. AND
| finally with it will come an advanced
step towards the fulfillment of the
great mission of the Republican party.
And that mission will not be per-
formed until every section OF our con-
stitution and every amendment there
of shall be respected and made effec-
tive-and until every citizen of every
section, of every race and of every re-
lgion shall proclaim in one grand
chorus of that constitution, Thou art
my shield and buckler.'
God grant that in our party's strug-
gle to reach that time, it may ever
have man to place before the Amer
lean people for their suffrage who has
the ability, courage, honesty and ag-
gressiveness of Theodore Roosevelt.
