Secretary Tumulty Hkens what he calls the trend
toward Wilson to the Resurrection and Wilson'S defeat
in 1920 to the Crucifixion
Apparently Mr. Tumulty looks forward to the pos
sble election of the Democrats the second coming
of wisconsin.
Mr.. Tumulty is in grave error.
In addition to Mr.. Tumulty's remarks being some
what blasphemous they are supremely ridiculous.
There is no trend to Wilson or wisconsin.
There is trend the part of disappointed public
away from the Republican party.
And the reason for that Republican disaffection is
simply because the policies of the Republican Admins
raon are almost identical with the repudated policies
of the Wilson Administration.
wisconsin will be defeated second time when the
people defeat the Republican party at the polls this fall
as they certainly will do. "-- .' 80 49,
What the people want is to get away from Wisconsin
and its policy of foreign complications and to get back
to the true American policies of Washington and JEFF
ferson and Lincoln When the people voted for the
Republican party at the late Presidential election it
was because the Democratic party failed to keep its
promises, failed to repudiate wisconsin, failed to
store the Government to the historic American policy
Of no entangling alliances with foreign nations.
These facts clear that they would be admitted
by politicians of both parties did not the international
bankers control the politicians of both parties by great
contributions to their campaign funds-a fact which
politicians do not like to admit
The people, however are beginning to know this
reason for party treachery and must find a remedy
for it.
The public should not again be deceived by mere
promises, they at the Republican convention
in Chicago.
The public must come to realize that party pledges
nothing unless those party pledges represent the
convictions Of the nominees in other words unless the
men who are nominated have proved by their records
that their personal principles identical with the
professions of the platform.
To avoid another betrayal the citizens must abandon
partisanship and blind faith in party platforms
They must depend upon men, and give their support
to that party which nominates the most dependable
the most loyal men, the with the best records
of Americansm.
In fact the next President is probably in the making
in this struggle the part of true Americans in
the Senate to prevent the nation from being betrayed
by the agents of the international bankers into those
dangerous and destructive policies Of foreign entange
ments that great Washington earnestly warned
us to avoid The who lead this patriotic fight for
the historic policy of American independence should be
the men to whom the people will turn for the next
Presidential nominees. They the men who will not
lie to them and deceive he not make false promises
to secure the peoples votes and then break those
promises to please the international bankers.
They are the whose public records tell their true
sentiments and their permanent principles.
The hope for the future the guaranty of loyalty to
the American people and to American institutions is
not in parties or in platforms, but in men.
