the day Saturday about as usual fin.
;shing the afternoon on the golf links
with his sons. Robert and Charles. He
gave out statement in which he
said:
"A national convention of one of
the great parties Is ordinarily import
ant only as a preliminary to a national
campaign for the election Of a Pres
ident. The Chicago convention Just
ended is much more than this, and Ii
in itself the end OF a pre-convention
campaign presenting a crisis more
threatening and issues more important
than those of the election campaign
which is to follow between the two
great national parties.
"The Importance Of the great vic.
tory which has been achieved cannot
be overestimated. All over this coun-
try patriotic people are breathing
more freely that a most serious men
ace to our Republican institutions has
been averted."
