During the morning a parade OF
}epl alican clubs was held and the
is5 gailY decorated for the oc-
Senator 0FaInr sounded the key
note Of the campaign and was re-
neiye with widest enthusiasm. He
ols follows:
Chic should fail to give the
iispa Republican amjority it would,
in he Bsenee explanation, be an
ion that the people are dis
leased with Republ icanisn, and
would have the double effect of
gihg Republicans and en-
Democrats, not only IN
his Elsewhere
Iher ore; when we vote IN Mo-
nle eaust, whether we wish it
or NOT cast our ballots for or
rainst not only the record that has
bon made 1T Columbus, but also for
IA INST tlie record that has been
AIDE Washingt on-not only for
against Herrick, but also for or
a5nst Roosevelt,
In other words the issue, and
actieally the only issue we have
iis year IS that of the Republican
artv versus the Democratic party.
President Roosevelt has not only
et the expectations and redeemed
u promises of his party, but he has
far surpassed all expectations and
hedges that the Democrats are pro-
osing that he be made the candl-
ate of both parties and be unanim-
dsly reelected President in 1908.
his is the most sensible proposition
iey have advanced in fifty years.
ssIndividual Democrats are as able
nd higll-minded today as any Of
1eir great leaders in the past have
zen, but they have no unity of be-
ef or purpose. BRYAN breaches one
ind of Democracy and Parker an
Eher, and the people have no use
pr either. Our great victory OF
ST year was due in part to the per-
nal popularity Of President Roose--
BIt, and the still greater popularity
Republican policies, but more
nan an else to the utter lack of any
pInmon beliefs or common policies
purposes of our opponents. They
ever were very we'll endowed with
rinciples. In all their history
1ey have had only four cardinal
Propositions slavery, secession, free
.ade and free silver, and now these
De- all dead or disabled. Slavery,
nd secession were slaughtered on
he battlefield; free trade has been
slegated To- tn erar by protection
md prosperity, and free silver per-
shed at the ballot box.
<sThe questions of the day are
usiness questions and broad Ameri-
an questions. Democracy never
eelned. to have any faculty for eth

lie MS to the one, and its strict con-
truction views of the constitution
ave made it helpless as to the other.
they do not lack appreciation OF
ir9sperity, but they cam not have
nat and free trade also. They
would like to uphold and advance
kmerican interests throughout the
world, but their conception of our
rganic law paralyzes all such forms
patriotism.
ssThere is no room in the con-
m of the Panama Canal for
partisan politics. 1t is a
american and business under
asking and must be conducted on the
jroudest and most patriotic lines.
Eve are in the Philippines, and
Fe are there to stay. We have ac-
onplished much, but much remains

iighly cFeditable. Our honor and
good name, as well as great Ameri-
interests are II stake there.
