banquet of the National Association Of
Manufacturers at the Waldorf-Astoria.
He was making defense Of his conduct
as Speaker, and he was wildly cheered.
You believe We have majority of
forty-four in the House Of Representa-
tives and two-thirds Of the United States
Senate" said the Speaker, land yet we
are under the sway-I will not say Of dis
honest-of mistaken people. and now and
then a demagogue. seeking power; and

whether there are enough towards 70

and the spectators in the boxes rose and

Would Hang Deserters.

IF there were two armies drawn up in
actual conflict do you know what would
be done with such menu
Shoot them!' cried one Of the diners.
''Shoot them.' Numbered the Speaker.
"Shoot them? That would be too hon

be their fate.
1T is in the essence Of popular good

RESPONSIBLE for their mistakes. There

Were He a Mere Partisan.

In 1912 we elect President; on March
the present Congress goes out of ex-
istence. If I were a mere partisan I'd
like to see the democrats have full pow
err in both houses, SO that they would
be forced, because of their opposition to
the Payne tariff law, to act upon their
pretensiOns and enact a new tariff law.
Then they'd have that to defend rather
than misrepresent the present tariff law.
They'd have a baby of their own to pro-
tect.
If 1 were a mere partisan I'd welcome
Dolliver, Bristow, La Toilette and Clapp
of Minnesota joining hands with Champ
Clark and company. But that would
bring sOrrow, shortened wages and mis-
cry to millions of hearthstones. There
fore, as a man Of seventy-four who Will
soon be where 1 will wear either a mus
lin or asbestos halo, I'd rather march
to defeat in the future than to have our
popuifst or so-called progressive friends
reaping a victory.
II would rather that We carry the next
House and Senate by a sound real repuD-
lican majority. even though we lose In
1912 I'd postpone the evil day az long as
possible and perchance-though It's a for
.lorn hope-wisdom may come south OF
Mason and Dixons line. God bless you
you needn't bother about New Eng
land, she'll take care of herself
