CLARK SEES VICTORY
Gays Democrats Can Look Upon the
Promised Land and Entsr and Posses
II in 1879 After Seventeen Years Of
Wanasrina in the Wilderness.

Lawrenceburg,f KY. Sept. 2o.-"Iri-
unrhant democracy is now the re-
sounding theme Of every tongue. AZ
ter seventeen years OF wandering in
the wilderness we this day stand upon
Mount victery and lek into the prom
i.ed land which we will enter and pos
ses. in 1912" so declared Champ Clark.
speaker Of the national house Of rep
resentatiyes, in anaddress here today
Mr.. Clark was born near Lawrence
burg. March &. 1850. and until today
had not been there since he taught
country school.
Continuing his message to democracy
the skeaker said:
Democrats everywhere are cheerful.
hopeful. confident. united and agrees
siye. while our republican friends are
sad. hopeless. despondent, on the de-
fersive and split into bitter factions
constantly at each others throats.
From ocean to ocean they are feating
each other like the cats of Kilkenny,
President Taft leading the stan ipat
faction, which Senator Robert Marion
LaFollette-"Fightin Bob" as his fol-
lowers love to call 'him-heads the In
surgents. With them 1t is war to tie
knife and the knife to the hilt.
F "They are SO thoroughly destroying
each other that sometimes it seems
that.ell we have: to. do is to stand still
and see the salvation Of the Lord: but
wise democrats ire not in favor of
standing stills of Of depending on re-
publican faetionAlism to give US the
victory next year. On the contrary we
should continue n We have begun,
press forward, advance our banners,
keep exefiastinely pounding them. pass
more good bills untilswe have carried
out our entiry program and force the
president to sign or VETO merftorious
democratic measures, which are de-
signed to promote the prosperity. hap
piness and safety OF the American
people. That is a policy which will win
and which deserves to win.
The great battle of 1912 must be
fought on the splendid record OF the
democrats in this congress and upon
that record we can win not only next
year, but FOR years to come"
Mr.. Clark reviewed some OF the
party accomplishments and said:
What We did at the extraordinary
session is only an earnest Of what we
will accomplish at the next two regu-
lar sessions.
The very best and most important
result OF the extraordinary session was
that we formed the habit OF acting and
pulling together and have come to take
pride in 50 doing.
I'm this connection, 1t should be
stated that the democrats in the house
OF the Sixty-second congress, aided by
some republicans. passed the recipro-
city bill. as they had done in the Sixty
first. President Taft, with all the pow
er. prestige and patronage Of his
mighty office. could in neither congress
muster majority Of the republican
representatives to his aid"
