 wicked. Strategy is no sin. Far better is it for the American peo-
 pie and the future of the democratic
 party that in this convention we
 deny to ourselves some vaunted ex-
 pression or surrender some tempOr-
 ary advantage that we may succeed
 in this, campaign than tenaciously
 to persist and lose.
 A great duty and a high responsible ity rests upon us in this solemn and critical hour of the nations life. Every impulse of decency, of human sympathy, of fair dealing, cries out and urges us on to action--militant, aggressive action With struggling millions of men and women throughout the country calling upon us and humanity everywhere ex- orting us onward, the great army of democratic men and women will not retreat before the nemy upon the great battlefield of this campaign. We shall not fail.
 No matter who may be the choice of this convention, we will rally around our leader, clad in the armor of righte- ous cause. attracting to our standard all the forces of right until the flag of democracy waves triumphantly from every rampant of the government. And as we fight this great battle there will accompany us the invisible presence of the fathers of democracy. It would seem now we can hear the soft voice of sweet reasonableness coming to us from Montecello, the voice of "Old Hickory" coming across the Blue Ridge from the Hermitage and from that his toric crypt at.

threats of conservation will swerve us from fixed purpose. Democracy is the right way. It is the party that offers the safe middle course, peatronizing nc isms, and paving tribute to no extremes
 It is the party that never bartered it's birthright to serve the hour nor allowed expediency to dominate where right was involved.
 It will wage war for the protection of the rights of property as zealously as it will battel against the guarantees of special privilege. At every cost it will defend the liberties and the con Ctitutional rights of the citizen in the same sturdy way as it will assail bu- reaucracy and centralized government. These principles are just as precious today as when they were proclaimed at Runnymede, revivified by the immortal Jefferson in the imperishable parchment of our Declaration of Independence and indelibly written in everlasting terms into the Constitution of the United States.
 Ladies and gentlemen of the con
 vention, may I say in closing that
 this is a democratic year. Victory
 Is within our grasp if we but reach out for 1t. Let us remember that
 too much Is at stake for the hideous
 form of friction to frown upon this
 convention. Our guns and all our
 guns against the common enemy.
 Nothing must happen here to di.
 vide our councils or dampen our
 artor. The fires of democracy must
 not flicker. The hope of the people
 lies in the action of this convention.

 We will rigidly enforce the law magnate, congressional bribe taker, an embezzler of the public domain, or . disreputable bootlegger.
 We will eliminate government favorit- ism and strike from the statutes every discriminating provision that takes from ''the mouth of labor the bread it earns. ''
 We will ,readjust tariff rates and re. duce transportation charges.
 We will lay bare campaign bribery and punish election frauds.
 We will go to the relief of distressed agriculture and adopt such policies and pass such laws as will restore perma- nently the purchasing power of the farm er's dollar and again place it on par with that of othere industries.
 We will remove from the administra- tion of civil service every influence of fraud and inaugurate efficiency in government.
 We will put a stop to republican procrastination and adopt a progressive reclamation policy.

 We will pursue the same high course that has ever inspired the leaders of democracy, unterrified by those who seek selfishly to control.

OBJECTION TO
 FUNERAL WITH
 DOG IN CASKET

DASSAIC, N. J.. June 24.-
 Members ofSthe Pythian Sis
 ters and the Sons and Daugh- ters of Liberty have registered an emphatic protest against attending a funeral at which the coffin, will be shared by a pet dog.
 When Mrs. Mary s. Aims, a mem- Der of both organizations, died, her pet poodle, Patty, was at her bed side. The woman's will ordered that the dog be buried with her.
 Friends made plans to poison Pat ty, and place her body in the coffin with that of Mrs. Aims. Members of the organizations who planned to attend the funeral heard of the will, however, and decided that par ticipation in the double rite would detract from the dignity of the fun eral service.
 Patty will live. It has been an- nounced that the funeral will be held Tuesday without the unique clause in the will being carried out. .&4
