HEYBURN'S TRIBUTE TO TAFT.
Extract From Speech of Senator Hey
burn, at Caldwell, Sept. II.

"A few weeks ago at Chicago the
Republican party nominated a can
d!date for president and one for vice
president of the United States.
They made declarations Of prime
Piles, renewing their allegiance to
the faith of the Republican party,
renewing the declarations of their
allegiance to the Constitution of the
United States. and pledging the peo-
pie it's maintenance: pledging the
people their fealty for it's UNFOLDING
and preservation.
''In the performance of the high
duty which rested upon them, they
nominated as the candidate for pres
ident of the United States man
trained in government. His duty
will be that Of government, and 1t
Is most proper that the candidate
be submitted to the choice of the
people should be men trained in gov
eminent in it's different branches
Their candidate was first learned
the law; trained in its application
both at the bar and on the bench.
Through long years OF experience he
demonstrated his ability and his At
ness to administer 1t as a Judge. For
eight years he sat upon the bench OF
the United States circuit court. the
second highest court In the land
and I may say in the world. With
distinguished honor did he occupy
the bench OF that court. From this
experience he stepped over to the
executive side of the government
to execute the laws that he NJ
been engaged in terpreting. He be-
came governor Of the new posses
sions of the Philippines Islands
With admirable discretion and
splendid wisdom and executive abil.
ity did he carry out the intent and
purpose of this government in re.
gard to these possessions as estab.
llshed by the law of congress. What
complaint did you ever hear that
wa worth a moments consideration
against the decisions of this great
jurist, William H. Taft? (Applause.
What complaint did you ever hear
worthy OF a moments consideration
against this great executive officer
William H. Taft? (Applause.)
Taft Best Prepared Candidate.
He comes to this Office with the
best equipment that was ever
brought by any candidate in our
day. We have had great lawyers in
the presidential chair; men of splen-
did ability. great accomplishment in
their profession and broad common
sense in the application of 1t. We
have had men in that high position
tn manage armies and fight battles,
to manage armies and flight battles.
coupled with that great common
sense which enabled them to apply
their knowledge to the duties of
that high ONCE: but here We have a
man in the prime Of life; a man
against whose personal character n"
one has ever whispered Of a blem-
ish: a man who has had years o.

pose OF adopting a platform and

charged with no other duty than
that Of selecting from the list OF
candidates the strongest possible
ticket and planting themselves
Squarely on the state and national
platforms and putting up the best
Aght for a clean sweep for the whole
ticket.
Not too much can be said for the
men who have laid aside personal
interests for the good OF party har-
mony. They have been broad-mind-
Cd and fair. and their spirit should
be reflected In the convention to the
end that every candidate may have
. square deal, standing before tt
x6hvention on his merits and win
ming or losing as he has the infiu-
eDce or ability to mass political
forces. and In the end standing pat
on the results Of the convention
whether he be winner or loser in
the contest.
The Republican party ia in a
strong position in the state and IN
the nation because It stands for
Well-known and well-defined princi-
ples. The record of the party is
such that It can face the people of
the country with pride and conf
dence. But this does mt mean that
there are no foes to meet nor fights
e. make in the coming campaign.
The fact that the Republican party
stands for definite something
which 1t Is likely to accomplish. has
made the opposition alert and &C
tive. It has allied many forces and
elements Of strength. the aggregate
OF which the Republicans will do
we'll not to discount. but in the NAM
ing Of the ticket give to 1t every ele-
ment Of strength and in the canvass
unite. register and poll the full par
ty vote. making the contest COM
