Would Fight Saloons.

OF the temperance question the speak
er said:
''The greatest curse in our nation is
commercialized alcohol. I am neither a
total abstainer nor a prohibitionist but
I cannot close my eyes to the facts
obtained through every channel Of So
cial survey, that 80 per cent Of crime,
degeneracy, disease and pauperism is
caused by the sale and Incorporate use
of alcohol. 1t is the greatest peril, but
so huge is its influence and so rami6ed
it's tentacles that not one great party
or great leader has dared to grapple
with it.
off the Republican party is seeking a
worthy task let it undertake this one
and follow it courageously, tolerantly,
nationally and persistently. 1t need not
advocate prohibition but it would have
to destroy the saloons and replace them
with sufficient municipal clubs, or sub
stitutes Of that character where pure IL
quors and beers made in distilleries and
breweries supervised by the government
could be sold in temperate quantities at
cost. Liquor always will be used in
some homes, clubs and hotels, to which
there NAV be no objection

Former Governor Chase S,

Plea for United Repub1i-

~ HICAGo, Jan. 11.-The factions
A into which the Republican party
has split were called upon to
"get together by former Gov.
erpor Chase 8. Osborn of Micbi-
gan at banquet of the Hamilton club
here tonight.
Referring iu complimentary phrases
to the Hamilton club, the speaker called
upon it to take the initiative in invit.
ing the leaders of the Progressive party
and of the Republican party to hold a
conference to seek common ground on
which they can reunite.
The worst that could happen, the for
mer governor said, would bo failure OF
the object sought.
1.-THE invitation to attend could be
made general and could also be made
special to certain prominent leaders. T.
would send special invitations to Theo-
dore Roosevelt and President Taft, to
Senator La Toilette, Senator Dixon, SEN
ator Root, Mr.. Barnes, Mr.. Flynn, SEN

Says Fever Is Broken.

1.-The Republican party is sick, - con-
tinued Mr.. Osborn There is no doubt
about it. Last year il was dehrlous.
Now the fever is broken, let us hope
permanently, and the patient is weak
and anaemlc, but convalescent, and |
believe it has enough vitality to war
rant the prophecy l say. During it's
delerium the party was repudiated by
the country. | do not believe that this
turning of the people g back is neces-
sarily permanent posture.
The former governor said that only
that party which is worthy in evory
way can retain the confidence Of the
voters. The Republican party must do
things as it did in it's ''stout young
manhood.
The party might take up government
ownership of railroads, as the govern
ment at present is exercising Ignorant
and incomplete supervision without re-
sponsibility.
It might take up the subject Of Gem
ployment slaves. - There are more than
there were of the black slaves, for
whose liberation the Republican party
was formed.

Explains Suspicion.

"They looked with suspicion upon

garded themselves as in some sense
would need it as much as every genera

grounds for suspicion, and they would
have felt 4 free hand in the matter Of
framing a policy which they could have
pursued. SO that when the government
at Washington undertakes in the fu-
ture to develop a policy of this sort,
tho first thing ii must know is the

Four Things to Be Done.

"There are some perfectly clear lines
that may bo laid down. There arc four
sets Of things which have to be done.
In the first place we have to husband
and administer the common resources OF
this country for the common benefit.
Now, not all business men in this couu-
try have devoted their thought to that
object. They have devoted their
thought very successfully to exploiting
the resources of America, but very few
business men have devoted their
thought TO outstanding the resources of
America; and very few indeed have had
the attitude of those who administer a
great trust in administering those nat
ural resources.
fUptil the business men Of America
make up their mind both to husband
aud TO administer as if for others as
we'll as for their own profit, the natural
resources of this country, some OF the
questions ahead of us will be immensely
difficult of solution. Why is it that the
government of the United States up to
this moment has not hit upon copsis-
tent policy Of conservation? 1t has not.
You must be aware that a mere policy
Of reservation is not a policy of
conservation. It is in one sonso a
policy Of conservation for it conserves,
but no nation can merely keep out of
use its resources IN order that they may
not to be squandered and dissipated. We
must devise some process of general use.
And why have we not done SOP Why,
if I am not very much mistaken, be-
cause the government at Washington
was TREMENDOUSLY suspicious of every
body who approached it for rights in
the water powers and forest reserves
and mineral reserves Of the western
country which the federal government
still controls.
