could be found in all the country a man
so we'll fitted to be president. He is
not only absolutely fearless, absolutely |
disinterested and upright, but he has
the widest acquaintance of the nations
needs without and within, and the
broadcast sympathy with all our citi-
zens. He would be emphatically a
president of the plain people, as much
so as Lincoln, yet not Lincoln himself
would be freer from the least faint Of
demagoguery the least tendency to
arouse or to appeal to class hatred Of
any kind.
HE has a peculiar and intimate
knowledge of and sympathy with the
needs of all our people-of the farmer,
of the wage worker, of the business
man, of the property owner. No mat
ter what a mans occupation or social
position; no matter what his creed, his
color or the section of the country from
which he comes, If he is an honest
Woodworking man, who tries to do his
duty toward his neighbor and towart
the country, he can rest assured tina
he will have in Mr.. Taft the most up
right of representatives and the mos
fearless of champions Mr.. Taft stand

nently for the broad principles O
