ed to it and that while he would
not cast any reflection on the in.
tcgrity OF President Roosevelt, vet
he said that he had never either

himself in favor OF It. Now to the
contrary We know that Governor
Curry stated in Tucumcari lust two
weeks ago today that Mr.. Roosc
welt had told him that he was in
favor OF Il, SO that it is up To- Gov.
crnor Curry now and we must de-.
eide whether We shall depend on
his vcracIty, or the imaginary spec.
ulations oi Mr.. Larrazolo.
Another thing he said was that
the people oi the east had hecn OPP
posed TO tn" admission ol this ter.
ritory because they thought il was
largely inhabited bv our native
proplr who werr ignorant, and
illitcrate and that the only way to
convince them to- the contrary was
10 send one OF our native sons,
Mr.. Larrazolo, to Congress, and
he wen, ahead TO say that the pco.
pie in the east would ask III YOU
are ready lor stat, hood, why did
, OH send MIR. Elkins, OF Virginia,
or MIR Catron, from Mobile, or
Mr. Rhody, from Ireland, hcre2
send me a native horn" but he
forgot to tell You that he rs not

But in this campaign We have
not only the socialist to deal with,
but wc have also our friends the
democrats. Now then, a democrat
is a "ood fellow, but he is con.
Trajectory fellow. He opposes,
tor instance, the tariff; h- doesn't /
believe IN protection. Shall tell
you why? Tho democratic party
tells us "A great deal about the
trusts, about the big manutactur.

gentlemen, | want to tell YOU that
the democratic party Is the great.

America and | want to tell you
what they manufacture. They
are making mistakes! (Grcal
laughter Gentlemen, We cannot
blame the democrats ior being iol

put big tariff on blunders and
mistakes, YOU will soon have tn,
whole democratic party hollerinp
ior protection. ! thank you
