1--WE we're facing an era of. prosperity
I'm, those hopes have been shattered
and the only redeeming feature today

,rons politics has killed confidence
and the democratic administration has
h,otap down the old land marks. \
consistent attack has been made ON

because it was big.
business today does not know

Address by Supt. DoelIe.
I'VE are here this evening To con
slider the Republican situation said
Smt. Duellc, and unfortunately we
don't know how far the roots of dis
content 20. President Wilson is {
great leader, but what lis he leadint
he country and its people into? The
most powerful impetus man has fol
voting amy particular ticket is wha
this party will bring him i'm return
The number of idle men in the coun
try today is one of the best argument
why the Republican party should b'
back in power. Business and prosper
itv in this country cannot compete
with that of the old world. The stand
ards Of living today are higher ant
to secure these we cannot throw on
doors open tn foreign products.
There is no party so perfect tina
il cannot stop for Il time ana tax
inventory of it's mistakes. The Re
publican platform provides for com
mission of tariff experts that the tar
III may be taken out of politics. W
all know why European countries ar
so satisfied to have the Democrat
party i'm Office in this country IL
because the party places no tariff q
imported goods. It's not the big bust
ness of this country that is wrong bu
the politics.
1T takes capital and experience
operate our mines and other industrie
! have no sympathy for predator
wealth who will rob you and rob m
with impunity, but | do hold II
highest regard for the man and bus
ness that employs labor. tn the latte
the others are benefactors. The II,
publican party has always been n pal
~ of progress and moves with Il
times"
