service and trumpeting of loud al

beyond the platform and seek assur-
ance of sincerity. some substantial
earnest performance in the charac-
ter and the record of the candidate.
THE republicans of the sanely
conservative commonwealth of Wis
c~onsin, unique in the sisterhood of
states, united and unanimous in
support of a distinguished son, bid
me present to this convention the
name La Toilette. Tha. name and
that alone supplies the guarantee.
without which, the American peo-
pie will accept no party's promise to
perform. Twice before, you set the
man in the pillory and sought to
cruelty his ideals. But the fiery
words of prophecy spoken from this
platform -four years ago have been
fulfilled and what you then deridcd
as socialistic and populistic you rec
ognize as true conservatism today,
and the candidacy Of the man you
told to take his democratic dope
and go to Denver furnishes your one
salvation from defeat in dishonor
land disgrace.
For his professions have received
the priceless conservation of actual
performance. From a feudatory of
special privilege he created Wiscon-
sin into a free state. Through a
jungle of morass and marsh that
gave no surety of footing and
seemed to give no hope of passage
where rose the foul miasma of cor
ruption of ten long black and purga-
torial years, set upon by Sinking
beasts, ambushed and beaten and
battered down, he kept a course that
knew but a single compass. Out Of
the agon and travail of that
dark and awful pilgrimage was born
the progressive movement in Amer
lea. Primary elections, equal taxa
ton of railroads and other corporate
wealth, effective regulation of the
rate and service of transportation
and public utilities, civil service re
form, insurance against industrial
