Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen Of the
Convention:
Il thank you sincerely for the honor
of presiding at a convention of repre-
sentative Republicans Of the Sd Con-
gressional District of the State of
Maine.
The Republican party during most
of the past half century has enacted
the laws which have shaped and
moulded the destinies of this country.
The periods since 1861. when the
Democratic party had been in. control
was illustrious principally for laws
which resulted in disaster to the pros
perity of the people of this country.
Since Maine was admitted as The
Esd State Of the Union der Congress-
men have been men whose ability com
pared favorably with the long list of
statesmen who have served in Con-
gress. The history of this country
fills every citizen with gratitude for
the long continued and able service of
our representatives.
Maine. though removed from the
center Of population. has exercised a
great influence in national affairs. Her
glories, won through her sons, Ham
lin. Blaine, Morrill,, FeSsenden, Milli-
ken, Boutelle admonish us as they
were the marks at which the poisoned
arrows of the Democracy We're aimed,
although without results, that we can
RELY on the justice of our cause now
as then. and continue in effective SER
vice our present efficient representa-
tive of the Sd Congressional District
of Maine, Hon. Edwin G. Burleigh OF
Augusta, Gong and continued APP
p!ause). a tried servant of the people
of Maine, a man who has been faithful
to every trust. a man whose broad
