Three Kinds of Men.
Gov. Cummins said in part:

Gov. Cummins said in part:
Looking at u people from the
standpoint of public affairs, 1 see
three kinds of men. The first class Is
made up of law-breakers, conscience
v~iolators and selfish hunters for an
fair advantage.
"The second class is composed of a
host of good men who are either too
busy, too tired or too timid to organize
a warfare upon the wrongdoer.
"The third class is made up of the
leaders in the worlds true progress.
They are, alas, few in number, but
mighty in their influence.
One of the Third Class.
Zone of these men was born on the
9th of October, 1853.
THE republican party has elevated
many noble men to the highest office
in the land, but we never conferred the
honor on a better son of the republic
than he who now occupies the most
exalted station in the world, the man
of the hour-the idol of the people
the commander Of armies, the prince
of peace-Theodore Roosevelt"
Gov. Cummins briefly sketched Pres
ident Roosevelt's career in public office
and continued:
81 trust that a grateful people will
during all time, celebrate the day OF
his birth.
The Party's Advances.
eff we are happy in the character of
our leader we are not less so in the
history of our party. The advances to
a higher civilization, to better laws, to
rational greatnesS-are its advances.
81 have heard it said that it is high
craftsmanship to construct and main
tain a system through which u own
people are made to pay higher price
for our own manufactures than the
same manufactures sold by the same
producers command in foreign mar
kets. 1 would vary the phraseology.
1t is a high crime to defend a tariff
duty that has such a result.
IT am a protectionist born and bred,
and l stand for the defense of our W
markets. want our producers to take
them at a fair American price, but l
shall fight the duty which compels our
consumers to pay more than a fair
American price SO long as l have voice
and strength.
What Statesmanshfp Demands.

procity in some form or other, cur
