New York is not perhaps in need of additional instances

fully and most dispassionately. Every
issue is plainly summed up, and his
attitude made known in that calm but
positive. way so characteristic of him;
and his reasoning will appeal the more
strongly and convincingly to the public
mind at this time because it accords
with the accepted estimate of the man
and of his manner of doing things.
The man and the speech fit each other
most admirably, and the confidence
the man has inspired and held in two

past ten years will undoubtedly find

Mr.. Tafts speech of acceptance is a
powerful document. 1t is also char
acteristic document, and from that
fact gains a considerable element of
it's power and it's political Importance.
For the coming campaign is to be won
not by a platform. but by man. and
through the citizen, the tried official,
and the seasoned statesman, as eX-
pressed in the Cincinnati address, the
Republican party need not fear to Of
fer its pledges to the people of the
United States.
The address is the utterance of a
profoundly considerable craftsmanship
ripened by training and experience,
tempered by a grave and scrupulouS
appreciation of responsibility, yet
freed and made definite and direct by
that high minded and courageous can
dor which has procured for Mr. Taft
among politicians the honorable re-
proach of playing poor politics.
Mr.. Taft has taken up every vital
issue treated by the platforms and he
has handled each like a man who
would deserve success rather than win
1t, who would rather be right than DO
president. There are no twilight zones
in this uttcrance. We know what Mr.,

A National Campaign,

| The campaign now opening in this
state is a national one. The paramount
issues involved are national issues up
on the determination of which will
largely depend the progress and pros
perity of the country during the next
four years. No thoughtful citizen can
| believe that the interests of this great
| country will be or can be promoted by
| the election Of Mr. Bryan. The bust
hess interests great and small through
out the country have absolutely no
confidence in him, and without conf
dence they cannot look for either
| progress or prosperity. 1t is Of vital
| importance to the wage earners of this
| country that any revision of the tariff
| be in the hands of men who believe In
| the principle of protection, and not in
the hands of men who believe in elm
mating this principle and reducing the
| tariff to purely revenue basis with
| out reference to the building up of
| American industry or the maintenance
of the American scale of wages, and
| the American standard of living In
| this question the farmers of the coun-
try have an immediate and vital inter-
est. Under the Dingley law practically
| everything they raise is protected
against foreign competition, and they
are able to enjoy all the advantages of
| the great American market. which with
the high wages paid under the protec-
| tive system. as compared with those
paid in foreign countries-is infinitely
the best in the whole world. These
considerations come home with special
force to the voters of Maine for never
before were the interests of our State
so well cared for as they are today un-
der the Dinghy tariff law.
