was time when the Powers used

block to check hasty criticism Of the
Powers.
Today they use the financial scourge

block. What matter IL littlechildren

The senator was right. This ma

It does not belong toany group Of
men that exploitation NAV make the
few rich and the many miserable.
Big business you have with yen al
ways but that does not mean that
the tyranny Of big business must be
tamely endured.
It means that Big business should
get right and should be kept right.
It means that even Big business is
operated for the benefit of the peo-
pie and if it is not operated for the
benefit of the people it should no
longer be permitted to operate at all.
There is little nourishment in ashes

bogus promises.
It may be that the people can trust
no one but themselves but let them
trust themselves implicitly, conscious
Of the truth of their convictions, in

PRINCIPLES OR MAN

You are Republican objecting to
the personality of Theodore Roose-
welt therefore you will do what?
Support Wilson, Democrat. or
Taft high tariff Republican?
Why this pretence, why hide your
stand-patism behind a mask of dis
gust at the conduct of Roosevelt?
If you belong to president Taftget
outin the open and let folks know
where you stand. Are you ashamed
of your position? Then you can
hardly justify your principles.
True. the third party movement is
largely Roosevelt. dominated by him.
born of his efforts and destined to
do his work.
But you say Roosevelt has dis
gusted you.
Because he fought day and night
for the principles you say you advo-
cate?
Because he refused to be ridden
down by the gigantic machine which
has for years manipulated affairs to
suit itself?
Because he has preached govern
ment of the people and not govern
ment against the people?
In your heart you are standpat-
ter. In your heart yon set party"
above principle and success above
conviction.
Roosevelt and the things for
which he stands were right before
the convention and no reputation at
the hands of a machine and interest
controlled bunch of delegates can

make Roosevelt and bis principles
wrong.
III IL no longer question Of adj
miration for Roosevelt. II IS con-
ceivable that Oliver Cromwell was
far from . popular idol yet he set
his feet upon the neck Of kings and
the spirit Of English liberty lived in
him.
TO denounce the Third party be-
cause you dislike Roosevelt is to
align yourself where you belong,
with the standpat crowd.
Initiative, referendum. recall. pri-
maries for the nomination Of the
president, real revision downward
Of the Tariff. and sane and honest
Panama ship canal policy are things
in which you have said you believe.
Roosevelt appearing above the hori-
zon or fading into the distance can
make no difference with the funda-
mental truth Of these things and to
the man who honestly believes in
them he doesnotmake any difference.
THE nominee Of the party must
be supported. has been the watch
word Of the old line politicians.
Gone glimmering or fast going.
Today the people are taking some
part in the affairs Of state.
To them the nominee must be
right and if he is wrong no conven-
ton Endorsement can makehim right.
If he is right no refusal ofindorse-
ment can make him wrong.
If you believe in a high protective
tariff Taft is your man.
If you believe that the people were
made to be governed and that 1.-THE
courts can do wrong Taft is your
man.
If YOU are progressive, if you
stand with the people for the people
and can count temporary defeat as
future success you must pick a pro-
gressiye candidate and pin your
faith to his battle.
