The Republican party stands for progress It

America had become the greatest Republic tn
world has ever known, land where personal lib
erty, free speech and the doctrine of equality be
tore the law, ase the law. a land Of equal oppor
tahity such as Earth has never seen before.
The Republican party stands for Amercanism
onsshnndred per cent pure. 1t stands for the pro
lection OF American industry against unjust com
petition with that of Europe and Asia where III,

Is there any American who is proud of the
Bniied States having been kept out of warp Is
there any American who giories in the refusal of
our government and our President to protect the
lives OF American citizens on the high seas and in

The Republican party stands first and foremost
Tor Frcteetion; the profession Of American indus
try against unjust and unfair competition; the
Protection q the lives and property Of every AM
trican citizen At home, on the high seas, in for
eien lands; the protection of the right of any Am
efieAn citizen to 60 where he WILL to trade with
whom he wishes there is nothing OF expediency

The erroneous ground that American trade will
thereby automatically flow out into foreign coun-

ne that our government has sullenly refused to
grant rs protection to Americans who have been
toqlhardy enough TO enter foreign lands, where

Our Democratic friends say ~Vote for us. This
is q Democratic year. Join the winning side Float
hike q dead leaf on the top Of the wave and go
where the food carries you"

But. suppose that calamity again engulfs us, of
what use to any man is it to be simply part of
the drlttwood Of q yacillating nation? Do you
expect 20 get anywhere by joining political party
fhat y headed nowhere, and does not care?
N There IS no guesswork about what the Repub-
lkan party stands for The Republican leaders
Nd They stand for the right because it is right,
lpt because il is expedient -,
The Republican party stands for the protection
~ American rights and liberties, but holds that
principles are greater than fife, and that the right
Shall prevail ttWilson has kept us out of war"
