var determined it's every act abso-
lutely by how it could contribute
most of the sum total of war good,
and in the trying times now ahead
the party has n great ultimate OBJ
j~ectiVe, and that is to measure our
acts so that every effort made every
where by the party shall be definite
contributions to the country's well
fare.
This is no time for little things.
We have no time for petty jealousies,
carping criticisms, puIlings or haul
ings, either between ourselves or as
against the opposition. Any local
differences, any former factional diff
culties, and all minor issues are Of
curse lost sight of in this great su-
preme endeavor to make and keep
conditions right in this country.
ITO attain our great final purpose
we urge that it be the effort of the
Republicans everywhere to see which
state a go the farthest in develop
ing plans and executing purposes for
the welfare of the people and the
glory of the nation. This success, SO
essential for the %country's future, is
only made certain by the accomplish
ment in every state of each step in
Republican victory as it can be taken.
The task is before the Republicans
of New Jersey at this moment, and
l have no doubt about your success.
Il plead for a patriotism in peace
as well as in war, and l urge the Re-
publicans of New Jersey, as / urge
all citizens, men and women, to give
that attention to their states politics
and their party's welfare which is
due hat instrument through which
and only through which they can ap-
ply their patriotism in times of peace.
Let the Republican victory in your
state be so overwhelming, with a
majority SO tremendous, that from
New Jersey will go a voice reassuring
the nation in most emphatic terms
that the Republican party is moving
unfalteringly into that complete con-
troll which the people want and the
country needs so much.
Under wise guidance the labor of
the country is entitled to and will re-
ceive fair representation in all the
councils of the nation. We will have
just remedial legislation for the bet
torment of this important group of
our population at all times, not only
because it is their due but because
by justice always we can prevent the
insidious influence of the criminal
elements of the 1. w. w. from taking
hold in the ranks of real labor.

when our heel must be in the ground.
Law and order shall reign in this
country. With a vision of the coun-
try's mission, and with the highest
sense of justice for all men, RepubIi-
cans will keepFtheir eyes ahead, but
will keep their feet always on solid
ground. We will not forget hat
Will we fought to make certain the
rights of free government in the
world we h9Nn q rannhlin fn nrnCocxyo
in this country inc that we are a rep
resentative government, not a Boil
sheyik syncopation.
THE Republican party from it's In
ception has stood against undue fed
eralization Of industries and activities.
There must be strong federal regula-
ton, but not federal ownership. We
have always e~ndeavored and still
shall endeaVor to find the middle
ground SO well defined as between
the anarchy of unregulated indi-
vtdualism and the deadening formal
ism of inefficient and widespread state
ownership. We are against pater-
nalism in government, we are
against that form of pedagogic oa-
ternalism that has developed recently
in this country. We are against auto
cracy as vigorously and unaIterably
as we are against anarchy. Boil
shevism and Kaiserism are equally
dangerous in industry as in govern
ment. We are against both. We are
the freest government on the face Of
the earth. and our strength rests in
u patriotism. Anarchy flees before
patriotism. Peace and order and Sc
curity n liberty are safe so long
as enough love of country burns in
the hearts of the people, but it must
not be forgotten that liberty does not
mean license. Liberty to make our
laws does not give us a license to
break them. Liberty is responsibility
and responsibility Is duty and that is
to preserve the exceptional liberty,
when he enjoy within the law
and by the law, without any
way whatsoever.
There is a duty and a great duty
ahead for our party in taking hold of
the situation in Washington in he
interests of economy: 1t is time to
put up a sign. Stop! Look and Lis
tent on the matter of expenditures
w shall enact a law providing
for a budget system for the countrv'S
own business, a method which should
have been adopted long ago-an it
is interesting to note that in the last
message of the chief executive to
congress he entirely units any mem
ton of the desirability of a budget
system. We shall enact legislation
for the development of trade. the i'm
provement of our diplomatic service
the solution of our shipping problem
that we may have a merchant marine
adequate to meet the development of
world trade; the development of our
position on international relations
