chance all these years to pass a tariff
law. but it failed. The republican
party has been made up in its leader
ship of men who profted by high
tariff
when congress finished with the
income tax and the tariff law. Pres.
Wilson said: You have done mighty
well; now let's start on something
else Then the currency bin was
passed and we restored the right OF
the government TO issue money We
transferred the center of currency
from New York 10 Washington
(Cheers.) You remember the panic
of 1907. It started not under a dem
Ocratic administration. perhaps the
fact that some thought the demo-
cratic party would be successful start
ed that panic and perhaps it came be-
cause ii couldn't wait. But year
ago came visions of another panic.
The secretary of the treasury did not
go TO New York then. but ne went ID
the white house.
He issued a statement that has
made history and in that statement he
said that any community which need
ed money need not go TO Wall ST., but
to Washington. (Applause.)
And the panic, the signs OF which
and silently stole away. tChee-s.)
My good friends OF Indiana. it
means something 10 have "A president
and "A secretary Of the treasury who
uphold the rights of the people. and T
ask YOU tonight where would YOU be
with a horrible war in Europe IL Wall
st. had control Of the money business?
(Applause.)
The republican party. both branch
es of il. had a chance and il failed.
The progressives say Taft did not do
these things. but Roosevelt had twice
as long a time as Mr.. Taft and De-
failed. But Woodrow Wilson took
the side of the people The republic
cans had chance at the trust ques-
ton, but they failed. Why didn't the
republican party do these things Be
cause the republican leaders were sup
ported by the benefciaries OF these
evils (Applause.)
There is but one way YOU can iu-
dOrse these great policies and these
great principles Of Pres. Wilson and
that IS by rejecting democratic con-
gressmen and democratic senators. Ia
this country this year there ara
enough senators 20 be elected %
change the complexion OF the upper
house. Woodrow Wilson needs Il
democratic congress and q democratic
senate; the arm Of the president must
not De paTalNZeu and the progress OK
this nation must not be blocked.

Pres. Wilson has had his battles
He had one in Mexico and some re-
publican leaders thought he ought ID

means by which Huerta assumed his
power and domination That would
have placed a premium on treason
and assassination for the president OF
this country 10 recognize Huerta, for
by ssassinatiOn he got control
The mothers IN Europe are down

ners. the sons and fathers great

Offices in the interest OF peace, yet the
republican leaders want you 90 stab
