Fling at wealthy.

Tt has been a matter OF concern to
me to see how bitter and irrational has
been the opposition TO US among a very
large proportion Of these men. the
men who are to be found in the most
noted clubs. in the centers OF big busi-
ness, and in the places especially re-
sorted to by those whose chief desires
are for ease and pleasure.
According to their own lights, these
men are often very respectable, very
worthy. But they live on a plane OF
rev ideals. In the atmosphere they Gre
ate impOstures, flourish, and leadership
comes 10 be thought Of only as success
in making money, and the vision of
Heaven becomes a sordid vision, and all
that is highest and purest in human ma
ture Is laughed at. and honesty is bought
and sold In the market place.
Opposed undyingly TO those men are
the men Of faith and vision. who spurn
lives OF soft and selfish ease, Of sloth-
ful self-indulgence, who feel for and be-
heve in their fellows, whose high fealty
is reserved for all that is good, Just,
honorable.

fold the bitterness. But II has been
to me a matter OF melancholy concern

Jumps on Taft Man.

1T has become clear beyond the
shadow Of a doubt that II had not
made the progressive fight It would
have completely broken down.
Here in Chicago at this moment Mr..
Taft has not one chance Of success, save
what was given him by the actions Of
Messrs. Crane, Barnes, Brooker. Pen
rose. Murphy. Guggenheim. Mulvane.
Smooth, New, and their associates. In
the last State in which Mr.. Taft spoke
CNew Jersey he permitted himself to
be betrayed into the frank admission
that he expected to be nominated be-
cause he believed the National Commit
tee would stand by him.
Mr.. Tafts cause now depends upon
the men who uphold the combination Of
crooked politics and crooked business
which has been the chief source, not
cnly OF our political, but of our social
and industrial corruption. It has now,
alas, become evident that Mr.. Taft is
willing to acquiecse in and to condone
and to accept the work Of those men,"
The majority Of the National Commit
tee in deciding the cases before them
have practiced political theft in every
form, from highway robbery to petty
larceny.
The Washington herald., 1912-06-18
Against Privilege.

We who war against privilege de.
mand Of our leaders to-day understand.
ing Of, and sympathy with, the living,
and the vital needs OF those in the COM
munity, whose needs are greatest We
are against privilege in every form,
Above all, We are against the evil alli-
ance Of special privilege in business with
special business in politics.
"A crisis Is upon us. Our opponents, the
men Of reaction, ask US to stand still, but
we could not stand still II we would. We
must either go forward or backward. Dis
aster is ahead OF US II We trust to the
leadership Of men whose souls are scared
and whose eyes are blinded, men Of cold
heart and narrow mind. who believe We
can hnd safety in dull timidity and dull
inaction.
Here in this city OF the State of Lincoln
I can set forth the principles for which
we stand to-day in the words which LIN
coin used fifty-four years ago, when in
speaking Of the then phase OF the eternal
struggle between privilege and Justice,
between the rights OF the many and the
special interest OF the few, he said:
The Eternal struggle.
That is the real issue. That is the
issue which will continue In this coun-
Try when these poor tongues Of Judge
Douglas and myself shall be silent: II
Is the eternal struggle between the two
principles-right and wrong-throughout
this world. They are the two principles
that have stood face to face from the
beginning Of time. The one is the eter-
nal common right OF humanity, the other
the divine right Of kings.
Tt Is the same principle in whatever
shape Il develops itself It Is the same
spirit that says: You toll and work
and earn bread, and ! win eat It. No
matter in what shape II comes, whether
from the mouths Of king who bestrides
the people Of his own nation and lives
from the fruit Of. their labor, or from
one race Of men as an apology for en-
shaving another race-it y tho same
yrannical principle.

Among those who Joined the ap-

and others, in q prominent box. 81.
And then at s:26 Col. Roosevelt ap-
peared. The crowd sprang TO its feet
waving iags and cheering Justify. The
colonel bowed and smiled repeatedly and
the ovation continued until the organ
swept into the strains Of: My Country,
'Tis OF Thee"
By and by Senator Borah resumed his
speech, in which he told the story OF the
Taft steam roller in the National Com
mittee. and when he concluded at 6:45
he turned and said:
And now. my friends, I have the
honor to present TO you the next Presi-
dent OF the United States"
And Col. Roosevelt made his speech.
Not Personally Concerned.
Col Roosevelt said:

hcans. but I also and primarily address
you as fellow Americans, fellow citizens.
The issue is both simpler and larger than
that involved in the personality Of any
man. or than that involved in any fac
tional, or in any ordinary party contest.
''As far as Mr.. Taft and ! are per
sonally concerned, il little matters what
the fate OF either may be. But, with Mr..
Taft's acquiescence, or by his direction
and in his interest, his followers have
raised an issue, which is all important
10 this country.
Tonight We come togther to protest
against a crime which strikes straight
AT the heart OF every principle OF politi
cal decency and honesty. crime which
represents the treason to the people and
the usurpation OF the sovereignty OF the
people by irresponsible political bosses.

when. in February last, I made up
my mind that II was my duty to enter

Mr.. Taft had definitely and completely
abandoned the cause Of the people and
had surrendered himself wholly to the
biddings OF the professional political
bosses and OF the great privileged inter
ests standing behind them.

The fraudulent Taft delegates whom

but the deliberate attempt by certain
