Mayor Stewart, who delivered
the Mckinley oration, reviewed
tho outstanding characteristics Of
the martyred president, and as
serted that these qualities would
be of immense value today, both
to the nation and to the party.
Compares Situation
Comparing the situation at the
outbreak of the Spanish-Amerl-
can war with the present, the
mayor said that Mckinley wanted
to avoid war with Spain, but was
pushed into it by his congress.
"The situation is the reverse
now" he charged.
Ina frank appraisal of politi-
cal conditions since 1892. Mayor
Stewart maintained that "the rca-
son Republicans have lost the lass
three or four elections is that we
nave failed to convince the peo-
pie. The Republican party is the
party of good business. You can't
have prosperity unless there Is
good business and unless the peo-
pie have a chance for prosperity
too.
I'VE must show the people that
we are responding to their
hopes" he continued. Eve must
sell the Republican party, with
out sacrificing any Of its princi
pies, to the rank and file. We
have lost touch with the people
who cast the votes.
