Elect Republicans to Congress.

1t is urgently necessary, from the
standpoint of the public interest, to
elect Mr.. Taft, and a Republican Con-
gress which will support him; and
they seek election On a platform which
specifically pledges the party alike in
It's executive branches, to continue and
develop the policies which have been
not merely protested but acted upon
during these seven years. These pol
icies can be successfully carried
through only by the hearty co-opera-
ton of the President and the Con-
gress in both its branches, and it is
therefore peculiarly important that
there should obtain such harmony be-
tween them.-President Roosevelt.
