NEEDS OF HUMANITY.
-Four years ago there were two par
ties in the field whose program was
conceived under the influence of these
great forces of progress and adjust
ment, the Democratic party and the
Progressive party. This year there is
but one, the Democratic party. In the
presidential election of four years ago
some fifteen million votes were cast.
OF these nearly ten and half millions
were cast for the candidates of the two
progressive parties, only three and
half millions for the candidate of the
Republican party, the party which lin
gered In the old ways and felt none of
the new impulse of q new day. More
than two-thirds of the voters OF the
United States favored then, and ia
vored now, q program whose object Is
to serve the changing needs of human
ity and progress.
THE Democratic party was entrusted
with the task. These powerful forces
Of the new age were put under its di-
rection. And under that direction
what have they accomplished? They
have put both the business and the life
of the country upon new footing.
They have released the financial credit,
upon which commerce and production
alike depend. from the control of small
groups of financiers and bankers at the
speculative centers. They have re-
leased the commerce and industry Of
the country from the domination of
those who were building up their power
by selfish and unfair methods of com
