 The nomination of MT Taft for presl dent according to all of the professions of tho president, would meet with his approval Why, because MT. Taft, is but tho me too of MT. Roosevelt.
 The republican party has shown It. self wholly incompetent to deal with existing conditions, It has done no- thing and It does not intend to do anything Reform after reform has been pressed upon congress by the democrats of tho house and It refuses to act, 1t fears to go ahead, 1t dare not retreat. It acts completely da2ed, Tell 1t not fin Cath; publish 1t not in the streets of Askelon. In my judgment the republican party Is suffering from an abberration of the mind. The demo- cracy is the only hope of the nation While we have been defeated recently we have forced the republicans to act l by agitation. We shall have a revl- sion of the tariff, We did force a law In Connecticut providing for a trial by jury. Public opinion educated by the decocracy has forced the prosecu- ton of the trusts and corporations violating the law
 The work of reform must not stop, | We must take no backward step. The the democracy has forced the prosecu- 1 posed of tho common people. We must 1 protect their rights and we must hold what has been gained for tho people. We can gain more than has yet been acquired A revision of the tariff bill will Inaugurate a greater era of pros rerity than this country ever saw, The democrats of tho house of representa- tives, supports the following measures:
 i-Publicty of campaign contribu- tons and expenses.
 Prohibition of child labor In the District of Columbia and the territo- ries.
 S-An employers liability not drawn to conform to the recent decision of the supreme court
 Personal liberty to government employees
 5 A law to prohibit the issuance of iniunctlons without notice to the part cnjoined
