PROTECTION OF THE COUNTRY.

In order to maintain our peace and
make certain the security OF our peo-
pie within our own borders, the coun-

thorough and complete national de-
Tense, ready for any emergency. Wa
must have sufficient and effective
regular army, and a provision for am
pie reserves, already drilled and dis
ciplined, who can be called at once to
the colors when the hour of danger
comes
We must have a navy so strong and
so well proportioned and equipped. so
thoroughly ready and prepared. that no
enemy can gain command OF the sea
and effect landing in force on either
our Western or Eastern coast. To Sc
cure these results we must have a CO.

The Republican party has long believed
in the rigid supervision and strict regula-

It has put its creed into its deeds, and all

roads and the great industrial corpora

crosses and Presidents.
For this policy Of regulation and super
vision the Democrats, in a stumbling and
piecemeal way, are undertaking to in
volve the government in business which
should be left within the sphere of pri-
vate enterprise and in direct competi-
ton with its own citizens, a policy which
is sure to result in waste. great expense
