1.-THE MAN WHO
IS NOT AFRAID"
In Fearless, Brilliant and Startling Speech the Name
Robert M La Toilette, "1he Little Giant Of the Bad
ger State" Was Offered for the Presidency
(By Associated Press. }

Convention Hall, Chicago, June
1S.-When the name of Wisconsin
was called out in the roll call of
states during the time this afternoon
that candidates were being placed in
nomination, Henry F. Cochrems, con-
gressman. was recognized and in one
of the strongest speeches of the con-
vention placed in nomination Senator
Robert NJ. LaFollette.
The speech follows:
-Four years ago the people of the
state of Wisconsin sent to the repub-
Iican national convention message
and Il man. Four years ago that mes
sage WIS derided and the man
scourged from the temple. Today
the man and the message return in
triumph. The report of our resolu-
tiOns committee persuades' me that
the message has been accepted. What
will you do with the man? Four
years ago, stigmatiZed and humiIiat-
ed though we were, we returned to
Wisconsin, our loyalty unshaken, and
gave to Theodore Roosevelt II hundred
thousand plurality. TIE black flag
and the white are Strangers to Wis

in public service.
wisconsin offers her candidate to
the nation, not because he is her IA
vorite son, not because we know him
and love him, not because of his abil-
ity, integrity and experience alone;
but because in him we know there is
embodied in ideal poise and balance
those other splendid elements and
attributes which most nearly respond
to the requirements of the hour and
the demands of the people. and which
alone qualify for leadership in this
great national crisis.
The speaker then stated that in a
generation since the war of the Re-
bellion. we have rushed at a runaway
pace from industrial freedom to -
dustrial oligarchy, and he declares
that this issue is domestic one and
not foreign one. He then entered
into discussion to the effect that at
the close of the war private individ-
uals were conducting the business of
the nation: but, gradually up to this
time, the corporation idea and the
unit of capital has taken charge of
the business world.
He then talked on he merger and

ceased to be a vital force He attri-
butes to the failure of revising the
tariff as greatly responsible for the
conditions that exist in the business
world.
He then dealt with the long strug-
gle on the part of many men to get n
revision, He declared that the time
had come when the people look to
Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Rockefeller. and
not to the president and congress for
relief from monetary strains. Then
Congressman Cochems spoke as fol-
