challenge those to whom that memory

act upon 1T. 1t is fair to consider in
What manner the ballot should be cast
to most faithfully maintain the pur-
poses and principles of this great man
who deserved so we'll of all his fellow
countrymen. The Republican party
is the party in whose creation Lincoln
helped, whose existence Lincoln pre-
served, the sole heir of his estate. the
trustee bound to administer his be-
quests. the guardian of his gifts to
humanity.
The Lincoln States.
I'm 1904 no state whose electoral
vote was given to Lincoln failed to
bear aloft the Republican banner. New
states had Joined the sisterhood and
they too took position in the same
honor roll. These precedents should
inspire effort to repeat the achieve
ment. The spirit of Lincoln still d.
reefs Republican councils. Lincoln
brought back the erring states into the
union; they will be welcome to share
In the triumph for Taft in November.
The main reliance, however, Is on the
new states and the historic galaxy that
chose Lincoln to defend liberty and ma
tionality. The Lincoln states must be
Taft states. No state that held up the
hands Of the. great emapcipator should
fall TO express its preference for a
man, who holds Lincoln's beliefs and
advocates Lincoln's policies. Every
man who In 1860 and 1864 believed
in the Republican standards held aloft
by Lincoln, should be proud to keep
step in the cause now, and with en-
|sergys and will assist in the election of
Taft as the present representative of
the common sense of the plain people
who, prefer deeds to words.
SIN his speech in New York, in sub
stance repeated elsewhere. Mr.. Bryan
denounces the Republican party for
alleged tendency to- GENERALIZATION.
His words are the echoes Of the as
saults upon the efforts of Lincoln
to defend the union and maintain the
constitution, the spirit which made
difficult the prosecution of the sfrug-
gle against the armed hosts of the
confederacy. Such utterances prove
that Bryan Is hostile to all that Lin
coin stood for and still represents.
Every Lincoln Republican should be
and believe will be supporter of
Taft. Those cut Of sympathy with
Lincoln's faith and achievements are
naturally found among. Mr.. Bryan's
supporters.
