in concluding, the Judge spoke en-
phs tically OF what both MI. Taft and
Woodro# wilson stand for, dealing
strongly with the policies Of both,
showing especially the reason wtiy
North Dakota should prove a Roose-
welt stronghold, if for no other reason
than the defeat Of President Taft's pet
hobby, the Canadian Reciprocity Act,
and Ar. Wilson's and the democratic
party's platform of low tariff. He APP
pealed especially to the farmer to In
sure himself against another four
years OF low prices, starvation among
the Iaboring men, and devastation IN
general by voting for the candidates
who have pledged themselves to sup
port the platform set: out by the Ma
tional Progressive convention held in
Chicago last August. ,.
As a closing appeal, Judge Allen
said: LET no citizen who believes
| in the progressive policies Of the age.
deceive himself with the idea that he
is voting for a progressive when he
votes for Wilson and Marshall. Let
Eno citizen injure himself and his neigh
Dor by voting for Taft and Sherman
through disappointment or personal
dislike for any candidate. Let's tear
off the party label and vote for the
real article, vote for real progressive
principles, vote for the men and wo-
men and children of the land. A vote
for Roosevelt and johnson means a
vote for the peoples rule, a vote for
the practical adoption and application
| of the fatherhood of man." '
