THE GOOD NEWS

i
me democratic party believes that
you possess in splendid fullness thoss
great attributes Of constructive genius
inventive intellect and resistless will /
tnat SO transcendantly befit YOU for
the great undertaking for which your
party has commissioned you. AS the
democracy has bestowed upon you its
most exalted confidence by naming
you for the highest office in the gift
OF your countrymen, they have done
so with an abiding confidence that
your service to all the people by striv-
ing for equal laws and equal oppor-
tunities and in Justly apportionins
their burdens will meet in full and
rounded measure all their hopes and
expectations.
The principals for which our party
Iougnt and for which we fell in the
last campaigns have SO aroused the
pubic conscience that they have
drawn to the support of the demo-
cratic party practically all unselflsh
Americans and have divided into ir-
! Vconcilable factions the hitherto vic
! tcelous republican party, which in the
past triumphed by opposing them The
democratic party is striving to give to
all the people a government so just,
with laws SO righteous, that monopoly
can find no hiding place and oppres-
sion no haven; one that will make ev-
cry citizen a volunteer and every home
a fortress against its invaders. We
want to approach as nearly as possible
to that ideal individualism for which
republics were born; where the fruit
of every mans toll can be enjoyed by
his own family, and every mans labor
will insure to his benefit.
I'VE all recognize the mighty task
i in front of you. Sixteen years of re.
5 publican rule have riveted the chains
of monopoly, special privilege and
t greed upon every field of Industrial
t and commercial endeavor The re
j. publican party has taught the trusts
s that 1t only barks and never bites
n Their prosecutions against these out
t. laws are but signal to play rising
e market.
s THE democratic party Is the FRIEND
d OF honest business, whether big O.
l. little, and is striving to make 1t i'm
e. possible for criminal business to de
d stroy legitimate business and oppres
II the people"

" 1--WE believe them both, the sens
ID tor-elect said, referring to the charge
III and counter-charges between Taft an
Is Roosevelt. He declared that the r,
Id publican view was that "a good trust
~ was one that gave campaign contribl
