New Vitality

But When They Do Let Them Bring
Forth "Works Meet for Repen
tance" —Republicans Have Made
the Grandeur of the Country for
Sixty Years. •
The address of President Taft to the
Beverly Republican Club, Beverly,
Mass., Sept. 3, was as follows: N
Gentlemen of the Beverly Republi
can club and,l am glad to say, my fel
low citizens of Beverly, I thank you
for this cordial greeting. This club
suggests one or two thoughts of a po
litical character that 1 did not (ouch
upon in the remarks 1 addressed to
you on Saturday. It suggests the ne
cessity for renewed organization of the
Republican party under present condi
tions. The Republican party has been
successful for many years. I think
the last national defeat we suffered
was in 1592, aud that is twenty years
ago. We have reached a point where
it was natural that there should be
some gentlemen who were convinced
that their position in the party was
not all that they thought they
were entitled to and therefore they
were in favor of sloughing off into a
third party. Now, the danger in the
continuance in power for a long time
to the party itself is the jealousies,
the factions, the qwrels within the
party that long life and success are
apt to generate, and. while, of course,
a third party is a misfortune to the
Republican party in the loss of some
votes, we must be philosophical and
look at this result on its good side as
well as on its bad side.
I conceive in respect of the life of
the Republican party that secession of
a third party is going to give us new
vitality in the vory feeling of fight
that the injustice of the claims of the
third party will arouse in us as real
Republicans. We know that we are a
better set of men than we are now
called by those who were very glad at
one time to be known as leading Re
publicans. We know that we stand
in the nation as the guardian of those
Institutions of civil liberty under our
constitution, the preservation of which
has made this nation permanent and
great, and that nothing could come to
this country of greater political in
jury than such a split in the Republi
can party as would destroy it.
The importance of this campaign in
its immediate result is great. I could
hardly state with (nore emphasis than
1 really believe the crisis that we now
face with reference to the continuance
of prosperity in tliis country by reason
of the vote that we are to have in No
vember, but there is something be
yond November With respect to the
Republican party. It is essential that
we should continue and revitalize it as
a permanent party and a permanent
force in this nation for the continu
ance of the progress that has made it
rreat. No student of history can deny
that the grandeur of this nation and
the height that it has reached among
nations during the last sixty years has
been due to the guidance and the force
and the energy and enterprise of the
Republican party. We propose to have
that continue. We propose that the
force represented by the Republican
party shall continue useful in the his
tory of this nation. With that in mind,
1 would urpe upon you the necessity
for closing up the ranks, finding out
who is a Republican, and who is not,
and when you find a man who is not,
do not count him for the party. One
who is not loyal never helps.
There is no use, gentlemen, tempor
izing about this matter. A man is a
Republican or he is not. Is he going
to support the national ticket, and is
he going to support the State ticket?
If he is he is a Republican, and if he is
not he is not a Republican. Now, such
a policy may cost us some votes, but
in the not distant future gentle
men who have deserted us in the hope
of enjoying ofllce, on the one hand, or
a millennium, on the other, Will find
themselves without office, millennium
or party. They will feel a bit lonely,
and then when they come back to the
Republican party, as they will come
back, let them come back as Republi
cans, but bringing forth works meet
for repentance.

WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT.
REMEMEER 1893-6.
How Prosperity Changed to Panic
When Democrats Elected a President.
In January 1892, this country was
prosperous, and all conditions indi
cated continuance of prosperity.
In November of that year a Demo
cratic president was elected.
In 1893 the Democratic congress,
convened in extraordinary session, be
gan its anti-protection activities. After
a time it enacted the Wilson low tar
iff law.
| In the early summer of that year
| came the panic. In the period from
I May 1 to July 23, 301 banks, with a
total capital of $38,000,000, suspended.
The total number of banks suspended
in that year was 585.
In 1892 the total amount of liabili
ties on account of business failure was
$114,000,000. In 1893 the total was
$340,000,000.
In the year 1893 railroad properties
whose aggregate value was $1,200,000,-
000 wtre in the hands of receivers.
Between May 4 and Oct. 3 $378,000,000
was withdrawn from national banks.
In this state alone withdrawals of
deposits from savings banks were $34,-
000,000 in excess of deposits made.
In the period from Jan. 1, 1892, to
Jan. 1 1596. there was a shrinkage of
$1,400,000,000 in the total value of
farm products and live stock in the
United States.
In that period prices were lower,
but hundreds of thousands were wage
less and other multitudes worked at
low wages and on short time. They
had little money or none with which
to buy even the most ordinary neces
saries of fife in adequate quantity.
Now, after twenty years, the Demo
cratic party is again asking the elec
torate of the United States to put it
in control of national affairs in order
that the performances of its last pe
riod of control and their disastrous
consequences may be repeated.
The Republican party, under whose
administration during sixteen years
the country has become newly pros
perous and more prosperous than ever
•it was before, pledges itself to mainte
nance of the policies which restored
and promoted prosperity.
There is a paramount issue. What
intelligent American can hesitate to
make his choice? —Albany Journal.
Business Confidences.
In his speech of acceptance Wood
row Wilson asserted that the tariff has
made the business men of the country
"timid, fretful, full of alarms; has
robbed them of self confidence and
manly force until they have cried out
that they could do nothing without the
assistance of the government at Wash
ington."
Present day conditions challenge the
accuracy of this statement. The ex
cellent doctor would do well to point
out some of the "timid, fretful" busi
ness men who are now "full of
alarms" and who are lacking in "self
confidence and manly force." Where
can he find them?
The country is at the high tide of
prosperity. Business confidence is in
evidence everywhere. The course of
tlie Republican administration is di
rectly responsible for this condition.
Danger lies only in a change of admin
istration. with the consequent change
of policy that is promised. Then, tru
ly, the business men of the country
would be "full of alarms," and they
would have justification.

FOH CHINESE
IMMIGRATION
— 1
What Woodrow Wilson Wrote
in Hs Well-known "History"
'
PREFERRED IT TO EUROPEAN
' "More to Be Desired as Workmen, if
Not as Citizens, Than Most of the
Coarse Crew That Came Crowding
Evpry Year at Eastern Psrts"
Woodrow VVilson, Democratic can
i didate for president of the United
States, lias declared himself in the
| mo*t luti.iic and permanent manner
in favor of Chinese immigration as
' preferable to foreigners from southern
and eastern Europe, whom he calls
! "the coarse crew crowding in at the
! eastern ports"—that is, New York,
i Boston, etc. As a very large propor-
S tiou ol the workers in New England
: mills t."l.'iit; to the class denounced by
| Wilson a* less desirable than the Chi
! n< so, they ought to be interested in
! the vievs which he lias expressed and
which we ijuote as follows from pago
j and volume of Wilson's "History o£
I the American People."
From page 212, volume 5, "Now
there came multitude of men of the
lowest class from the south of 1 tal>
; and men of meaner sort out of Hun
j gary and Poland, as if the countries
l of the south of Europe were dlfi
; ourdening themselves of the more aor-
I did and hapless elements of their pop
j ulation."
From page 213, volume 5: "The
j Chinese were more to be desired as
workmen, if not as citizens, than most
: of the coarse crew that came crowd
| iiiL- in every year at the eastern ports.
| it was their skill, their Intelligence,
1 their knack of succeeding and driving
| duller rivals out rather than their
alien habits that made them feared
! and hated and led to their exclusion
j at the prayer of the men they would
I liluly displace should they multiply.
The unlikely fellow who came in at
the eastern ports (that is, the immi
grants from Europe) were tolerated
because they usurped 110 place but the
: very lowest in the scaleVpf labor."
Foreign born workingmen and work-
I ing women of New England, what do
j you think of this statement by Wood
row Wilson, Democratic candidate for
president of the United States? Ho
says, that you are "a coarse crew,"
that the Chinese are better workmen
anil might mane etter citizens thau
j oi. are, and that you are toi' rated be
cause you usurp "no place but the
very lowest in the scale of labor."
We have given you page number
and volume number where these state
ments are to be found in Woodrow
Wilson's "History of the American Peo
ple." You can goto any library tnd
read them for yourself.
Woodrow Wilson is the first candi
date for president of the United
States who has declared himself in
favor of Chinese immigration Of tbe
estimated population of 3j0,1'00,000 in
China many millions would like to
come to America. If admitted they
v. ould soon drive American labor out
01 the mills and workshops and also
out of retail and much of the whole
sale business. At present Wilson is
keeping very mum on the subject, but
there can be no doubt whatever that
lie would, if elected president, attempt
to carry out his published views, and
open the door to the Chinese In this
he would have the backing of the
southern Democrats, who would be
glad to have the Chinese come over
and work fir them in place of the
negroes.
In this connection we suggest par
ticular attention to Woodrow Wilson's
expression about "the unlutely fellows"
from southern and eastern Europe be
ing "tolerated because they usurped
110 place but Lhe very lowest in the
scale of labor.''
The Republican party, whose first
president was Lincoln the rail splitter,
whose second president was Johnson
the tailor, whose third president was
Grant the tanner, whose fifth presi
dent was Garfield the towpath mule
driver, whose eighth pre4ident was
McKiuley, in his youth an iron found
■_r. regards and treats all honest labor
as honorable and as not merely to be
"tolerated," but honored.
Wilson's slur upon the labor of the
foreign born finds no echo in the ut
terances of President Tall, who, re
turning from a visit to the w »et, In the
course of which he addressed large
ratherings of our adopted countrymen,
declared that nothing had gratified
him so much as the intelligent inter
est shown by his hearers in American
institutions and their earnest desire to
understand the spirit and meaning ol
the constitution of the United States.
"Nicaragua Pacified; Marines to Be
Withdrawn," says a newspaper head
line, -narking the conclusion of anoth
er delicate and menacing international
situation, ably handled by the admin
istration.
Woodrow Wilson remarks that "the
American people aren't going to be fed
any longer with words," but he has of
fered 110 variation of diet himself.
Prosperity is politics proof when a
Republican administration is in power,
but it wouldn't be in tile face of Dem
ocratic or third party tinkering.
It is apparent that the third t.rm
party did not get value or the $2 a
vote it paid in the Ne'v York primaries.
WILSON'S CHIEF SPELLBINDER*
The Self Degradation of a Former
publican President.
If at the time of the defeat of Bur
poyne any one had foretold that
diet Arnold four years later would lead
a force of British and Tories to the
massacre of h's countrymen at Fort
Criswold, the prediction would have
met with Ae greatest resentment
mid indignation.
If four years ago any one had pre
dicted that a man twice honored by
the lit-pub'.lean party with the highest
oillce on earth —the preside nt./ of tbe
United States —would turn on that
party and seek to rend It because not
given a third term, and would flo n;s
berit Indirectly to elect the choice and
the representative of the southern
bourbon democracy, that prediction
would have seemed fully as incredible
as the former.
The third term ea r .didate is the prin
cipal spellbinder for Woodrow Wilson
He knows in his heart and so.il that
the onl> success possible for him
should he succeed would be to defeat
Taft and elact Wilson. Every vote foi
Koosevelt is indirectly a vote for the
Democratic nominee, whose support
ers at Baltimore made an open appeal
for His nomination on the g'-ound that
he was a native of Virginia, an ex-Con
fedtri'K statu, and not, like his rival,
Clump Clark, a native of Lincoln's
state < 112 Kentucky.
Filled with anger against President
Taft, who has merited by able, faith
ful and distinguished service the usu
al m«;d of Republican presidents, an
other term in the White limine, tfoose*
velt parades up and down, here and
the?.} and everywhere, professing any
principle or lack of prtr.clple, from aa
artl.y to oligarchy, that he tfiiijks may
win votes and throwing to Uie win-is
alike consistency. decency f.nd that
reverence which every American
should feel and express for the lnsti,
tutions of our country.
That the aspirant for u third term
will sink into richly merited oblivion
there can be no doubt whatever. Ho
might have maintained in private life
the honor, the dignity and the influ
ence belonging to his position as an
ex-presdent. He has sacrificed th"m
•all to a Catilinian ambition, and the
caln and deliberate judgment of fie
American people will put the stamp oi
condemnation alike on his insatiable
appetite for power andtiis unscrupu
lous demagogy,
the bourbons who are egging
him on and rejoicing in the hope of
profit from his treachery have only
contempt for his motives and hia
course. They are deiiglited to see him
attempt tq destroy the party which
abolished slavery, overthrew secession,
built up American industry and main
tained the financial integrity of the
nation. But they have no stomach for
the malice and the treachery that are
behind his desperate ad Ventura, When
Aaron Burr was self exiled to Europo
after the killing of Hamilton and tho
semitreason of his Mexican expedi
tion an Englishman desiring to visit
tha United States asked him for let
ters of introduction. "I have no
friends in America," answered the
former idol and once popular vice pres
ident, with an expression of abject
loneliness that his visitor could nevep
forget. \nd so it will be with the per
petual candidate when Ills followers
recover from the brief madness that
now possesses them and realize alike
his monstrous egotism and their own
aberration.
A PERTINENT QUESTION
Which the Third Termer Did Not Care
to Answer.
A man attending a third term meet
in:; at Denver asked the third termer
the very pertinent question, "Would
not the Republican party have
been all right if it had nominoated
you?"
Tho third termer did not reply. He
simply looked angry and went on dol
ing out political, ecouomic and social
istic chop suey garnished with the
usual sauce of epithets. It was, we re
peat, a very pertinent question. Tho
Republican party and Republican prin
ciples were good enough for the third
termer until he found that the party
was not willing to give him a third
term. Then he broke loose, and be
gan gathering in eveiry Issue and al
leged issue he could grab to make up
his cray quilt platform. He lias
sought, with the savage rage of a
Malay running amuck, to destroy
everybody and everything obstructing
ills mad onrush toward a goal he will
never reach. His ingratitude to the
party which honored him Immeasurably
beyond his deserts will have fitting re
ward in the historic fate of those who
have sought to "rule or ruin."
