Nations Safety Rests on
Equal Laws and Honor

."The safety and life of this govern
ment. this free Republic, this home OF
constitutional liberty, rests at last not
in Its marching armies. nor its mighty
navy, nor in Its great wealth, but in its
equal laws. its national honor, and in
the ever living truth that above cottage,
hut and palace alike the aegis of the
Constitution rests, which is the spirit of
Justice, the greatest attribute of God.
Great as Is the honor of being
President of this splendid republic,
yet the glory is not in the Office, not
in the fame of having held it, but
in the service rendered to the people,
by which the public servant is prop
erly judged and hat which makes
immortal the names of those who
hold 1t.
And the people believe you would
not put the armor on il you did not
hope. and believe you would see a
happier, more prosperous and a more
contented people when you take it
off.
1--WE all recognize the mighty task
in front of you. Sixteen years of Re-
publican rule have riveted the chains
of monopoly, special privilege and
greed upon every field of industrial
and commercial endeavor. upon every
market-place, upon every avenue of
commerce.
-Trust and monopoly walk with ar
rogant and brutal tread. fixing with
equal ipsoIence and oppression the
market OF the buyer and the seller.
The Republican party has taught the
trusts that 1t only barks and never
bites. Their prosecution against these
outlaws are but a signal to play a ris-
ing market, to drive higher the value
of the stocks they own, to increase the

SEA GIRT. Aug. 7.-senator-elees
Ollie NJ. James. of Kentucky, perma-
nent chairman of the Baltimore con-
vention, acted as spokesman for the
notification committee which today
formally rendered to Governor Wood
row Wilson the Democratic nominal
ton for President,
Mr.. James praised the candidate
and his achievements and bespoke a
harmonious party with mo dls-
~gruntled Democrats sulking in their
tents" He attacked both President
Taft and former President Roosevelt
and help up the Republican party as
"disheartened, discouraged and dis
organized"
The Republican conduct of trust
prosecutions was condemned. He de-
clared the Democrats had pledged
'felon's stripes for big m~alefactors.
Big business was promised support
II legitimate, and the Democratic
party was pledged to take the tariff
out of politics when the "trust-fed
barons take their cen hands out
of the pockets Of the American peo-
ple." .
The motto, Thou Shalt Not Steal
was a plagiarism from Democratic
faith, Mr.. James said, and he ex-
pressed belief in the charges both
President Taft and former President
Roosevelt have made against each
other.
Mr.. James's speech follows:
"Governor Wilson. the Democracy
of this republic. assembled in ma
tional convention at Baltimore on
June 25. 1912, was truly representative
of the people of this country. They
represented a political faith that was
born with the government and found
ed by those who wrote the charter of
our freedom. The Democratic party
has lived through all the years since
then to see the parties that battled
against it die in the political arena in
which they fought.

The American people demand the

with Holyoke score 5 to 8 in favor
