the patriotic people at the coming i election. He is lacking in regard for congress and the courts. He has even
 suggested the amendment of the con stitution by judicial interpretation and if that dangerous and revolution ary suggestion shall ever be favora0ly
 followed our happy land will only mark another wreck of a republic on | the shores of time and our boasted 1 liberties will lie dead among the
 things that were. Taft promises to
 carry out his policies. Let us hope he means those democratic policies advocated by Roosevelt and not the dangerous ones here mentioned.
 How unlike both is our great nomi- nee for the presidency. Unlike Tart he never held federal office all his life or any of his life. Unlike Roose- yelt-he reverences the constitution and uses big brains instead of a big stick to obtain results. Twice defeat ed for the greatest office on earth, he rises from the ashes, unscarred, wiIn his faith in the people unimpaired and his great love for his fellowman in no wise diminished. For the third time. he has been selected by his party asI it's highest ideal of personal and civic virtue, and we invite to his aid all those for whom he has made so brave battle and with such aid his brow will be crowned with victory-a vic tory dear to him, ONLY BECAUSE IT IS 4 VICTORY FOR THE PEOPLE Labor never had an honester nor a wiser nor a braver champion, and hon est wealth can feel no fear in his pres ence. We present our standard bear CT, who, being human, like the balance of us must have faults; but they are obscured by the effulgence of his own virtues even as the sun hides the spots upon it's dazzling disk.
 Behold our standard bearer, the man who above all others can do most to break down the artificial but seri- ous conflict between labor and capital and put these two great engines of civilization into peaceful harmony and mutually benefcent action and restore to our country reign of equal privi- lege to all men so that each may enjoy the fruits of his own industry, secure in the happiness of a just and free government, which, under the guaran- tee of his success renewed assurance will be given to Lincoln's el0quently expressed hope that government of the people, by the people. and for the pNOplE oAtdlI uON BCllSH HUH llS
 My friends your patient attention has betrayed me into a speech much longer than I intended to make. but there remains suggestion or two that I cannot forbear making. Every man who loves his country and strives to improve it's condition is a patriot entitled to all respect. The great mass of the republican party are men just as patriotic as you and l. We are all striving for the same results but We work from different view points. Under such conditions would it not be wise to forget mere names of party and struggle together for the common good. We are not yet free as a gov eTnment from a.I the dangers which beset us. Let us meet these dangers as patriotis rather than mere devotees to political parties. The ballot should always be employed, not as a favor to advance a friend but as a means of advancing the best interest of the commonwealth. Your ballot is not for your friends but for your country. So use it then, that your precinct, your state, your county shall be blessed in having bestowed it on you.
 If We would perpetuate this match less republic we must preserve those high purposes which gave it birth and which are the very breath of it's nos trils. We must not be swept from the highway by passion nor seduced from duty by hope of reward, but must above all things kepp intact the walls our fathers reared around the three great powers of government-the reg islative, executive and judicial-and stand fast by the citadel of the consti- ton as by the ark of the covenant of the living God"
