Praises,

Baltimore. June 2S-The speech
placing the name of Governor Wood
row Wilson, of New Jersey, in nomina.
tion for the Presidency was delivered
by former Judge John w. Westcott, of
Camden. N. ]. Mr.. Westcott spoke as
follows:
New Jersey, once bound, but by the
moral energy and intellectual great
ness of single soul, now free, comes
to this great convention, in the glory
Of her emancipation, to participate in
your deliberations, aid in formulating
your judgements and assist in execut-
ing your decress. The New Jersey
delegation is not empowered to ex-
ercise the attributes of proprietorship,
but Is commissioned to represent the
great cause Of Democracy and to offer
you, as its militant and triumphant
leader, a scholar, not a chairman: a
Statesman, not doctrinaire; a pro-
found lawyer, not a splitter of legal
hairs; a political economist, not an
egotistical theorist; a practical poll.
tician. who constructs, mobiles, re-
strains without disturbance and de-
struction; resisless debater and con-
summate master of statement, not a
mere phrasemaker; a humanitarian,
not a defamer of characters and lives.
a man whose mind is at once cosmo-
politan and composite of America;
gentleman Of unpretentious habits,
with the fear of God in his heart and
the love Of mankind exhibited in every
act OF his life; above all a public SER
want who has been tried to the ut
termost and never found wanting
peerless, matchless, unconquerable.
New Jersey has reasons for her
purse. Let us not be deceived in

and in all other relations. The line
OF cleavage is between those who treat
politics as game and those who re-
gard 1t as the serious business of
government. The realignment of poll
teal parties will be on this principle.
The situation admits of no compromise
The temper and purpose of the Amer
lean public will tolerate no other view.
The indifference of the American peo-
pie to politics has disappeared. Any
platform and any candidate not con-
forming to this vast social and COM
mercial behest will go down to
ignominious defeat at the polls. Plat
forms are too often mere historic rub

Walsh, of Wisconsin, Seconds Jersey
Governors Nomination.

Baltimore, June 2S-Mr. Walsh in
his address seconding the nomination
of Woodrow Wilson, said that today
Gov. Wilson typifies more than any
other man in public life the movement
for better laws, for more equal distri-
button of wealth and the protection
OF the weak against the strong in the
struggle for existence and that with
him Democracy could win. In the
course of his address Mr.. Walsh said;
you may offer to discuss the tariff,
trusts, currency and the economy in
government, and all that, but the peo-
pie at the present time are interested
politically above everything else in
the movement for genuine popular

Bankhead dominates Underwood.

Baltimore, June 2S.-Democracy's
real leader and best asset, invulnerable
in his record of long public service,
imperturbable in action and impreg-
nable in honor, and blameless in his
private life. was the way in which
Oscar w. Underwood, of Alabama, was
described to the convention by VIM.
B. Bankhead, of Alabama, who nomi-
mated Mr.. Underwood for the Presi-
dency.
After declaring that the Republican
party "had become, in the hours of it's
present degeneracy, the embodiment
of complacent incompetency and brok-
en- faith and that, although it claimed
to be the protector of labor, the fruits
of labor have been gathered as divi-
dends by illegal combinations in re-
straint of trade" Mr.. Bankhead assert
ed that the Democratic party had been
acting safely and conservatively.
Then, going on to describe the quail
tiles needed in a leader who could
carry the Democratic party to success
he said it would be logical to put Mr..
Underwood in command of the forces
in that battle where his brilliant
achievements already had created De-
mocracy's opportunity and redeemed
Democratic pledges. The chief issue
before the country, he said, was the
tariff; and Mr.. Underwood has fought,
with the foresight of a patriotic states
man, and will continue to fight for a
lower cost of living, for an equal op-
portunity for all men through the
enactment of a new and righteous tar
iff."
The sum total of Republican achieve
ments since the last election, declared
Mr.. Bankhead, has been the further
impoverishment of the poor, plus a
placid tariff board whose deliberations
give no reasonable promise of relief
from the present unbearable burdens"
He attacked the Republican campaign
as "humiliating spectacle of a TRADE
of determinations, in which the high
ideals of craftsmanship had been
thrown to the winds"
One benefit of this, he said, was that
1t had brought "the dawning of that
good day when the people are to re-
store to full power ana responsibility
the Democratic party, which has made
1t evident that 1t intends to serve the
real interests of the people if it can
be given full opportunity to redeem
its solemn pledges. a
THE acts Of the Democratic party"
he continued, have appealed to the
Judgment of the country as wise, con-
sentative and yet safe and progressive.
Although success, under right con-
ditions, is within our grasp" he warned,
never has it been more essential than
now for us to nominate our best and
strongest man. There is no safety in
picking our nominee in haphazard
fashion from among those who possess
this or that special gift, unless 1t has

NOMINATING and SECOND SPEECHES
MADE FOR Three LEADING CANDIDATES
FOR DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL H0NORS

Jersey argues that Woodrow Wilson
is the only candidate who can no,
only make Democratic success a Ger
tainty, but secures the electoral vote
of almost every State in the Union.
New Jersey will endorse his nom
nation by majority of one hundred
! thousand of her liberated citizens
We are not building for day, or even
generation, but for all time. Let
not the belief that any candidate may
succeed rob us of sound judgement
What would it profit the Democratic
party to win now, only to be cast out
four year hence? The Democratic
party should be commissioned to car
ry on a great constructive program
having for it's end a complete restora
ton of the doctrine of equal rights and
equal ortunity-without injury to
anyone. Providence has given u.s. in
woodrow Wilson, the mental and NOR
al equipment to accomplish this re-
incarnation of Democracy.
New Jersey believes that there is
an omniscience in national instinct
That instinct centers in Woodrow Will.
son. How can his power in every
State be explained? He has been in
political life less than two years He
has had no organization, only a prac-
teal ideal-the establishment of
equal opportunity. Not his deeds
alone, not his immortal words alone,
not his personality alone, not his
matchless powers alone, but all COM
bined, compel national faith and con-
fidence, in him. Every crisis evolves
its master. Time and circumstance
have evolved Woodrow Wilson. The
North, the South, the East and the
West unite in him. Deep calls to
deep. Height calls to height.
From peak to peak the rafting
clouds among,
Leaps the live thunder. Not from
one lone cloud,
But every mountain now bath found
a tongue
And Jura answers through her misty
shrouds
Back to the joyous Alps, who call to
her aloud"
The lightning flash of his genius
has cleared the atmosphere. We now
know where We are. The thunder of
his sincerity is shaking the very
foundations of wrong and corruption.
If Providence could spare a Wash
lngton to lay the foundations of the
United State of America; if Provi.
dence could spare a Jefferson to make
Democracy living reality; if Provi-
dence could spare a Lincoln to OBJ
literate chattel slavery and unite the
State in impregnable unity and broth
erhood. New Jersey appeals to this
convention to give the nation Wood
row Wilson, that he may open the
gates of opportunity to every man,
woman and child under our flag, by re-
.orming abuse, and thereby teaching
hem, in his matchless words, ito re-
ease their energies intelligently, that
peace, justice and prosperity may
'eign."
New Jersey rejoices through her
freely chosen representatives, to
lame for the Presidency of the United
States the Princeton schoolmaster,
Woodrow Wilson.
