Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-06-17

shaped and settled, during the past
few years, that old laws have been
enforced and new ones enacted.
But the work has not ceased with
the enforcement of existing laws A
republican congress and a republican
president have placed new laws upon
the statute books, designed to carry
out the republican policy or govern
ment regulation in a safe, reasonable
and effective manner. The Elkins law,
aimed at preferential rebates, which
have been the curse of our Transports
ton and our business; the railroad
rate law, which made the supervision
of railroads more effective, and the
pure food law, which has been in the
highest degree beneficent to the masses
of our people, are all monuments of
the policy and the labors of the repub-
lican party.
Holds Roosevelt to Promise.
"The president, who has led his par
ty and the people in this great work,
retires, by his own determination, from
his high office, on the 4th of March
next His refusal of denomination,
dictated by the loftiest motives and by
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-06-17

a noble loyalty 10 American traditions,
is final and irrevocable. Any one who
attempts to use his name as a candi-
date for the presidency, impuSns both
his sincerity and his good faith, two
of the presidents greatest and most
conspicuous qualities, upon, which no
shadow has ever been cast.
THAT man is no friend TO Theodore
Roosevelt, and does not cherish his
name and fame, who now, from any
motive seeks to urge him as a candi-
date for the great Office which he has
finally declined. The president has
refused what his countryman would
gladly have given him; he says what
he means and means what he says, and
his party and his country will respect
his wishes, as they honor his high
character and great public service.
But, although the president retires,
he leaves his policies behind him. To
those policies the republican party
stands pledged. We must carry out
as we have begun, regardless alike of
the radicals of reaction and the radi-
Gals of revolution. We must hold fast
Ito that which is good while we make

Fairbanks Has Inning.
The appearance of the Marion club
of Indianapolis carrying Fairbanks
banner brought the Indiana delegation
to the tops of their chairs to lead in
the cheers for their candidate for the
presidency.

At liza Senator Fulton of Oregon

seats all the present delegates, except

Lodge Made Chairman.
The report of the committee on per
manent organization, naming Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts as permanent
chairman of the convention, was

Governor Deneen of Illinois were ap
pointed to escort Lodge to the plat

Is Loudly Cheered.
When Lodge stepped to the speak

loudly cheered In voice clear tC

ium he began by thanking the dele
gates for the honor of his selection
to preside permanently over the de

''We ask for the confidence and sup
port of the American people because we
have met the problems of the day and
have tried patiently to solve them.
We appeal for votes and for the power
they confer because we uphold the
presidents policies and shall continue
to sustain them. We make our appeal
with confidence because we have a
well defined policy and are not, like
our opponents, fumbling in the dark to
find some opinion on something.

threatened on either hand. On the
one side were the radicals of reaction,
who resisted any change at all; on the
other side were the radicals of de-

thing. These two forms of radicalism
are as far apart at the outset as the
poles, but, when carried out, they
lead alike to revolution. Between
these two extremes the republican
president and the republican congress
