also devoted a few moments to the discussion discus-sion of the ice trust and Mayor Van Wyckc and Mr Crokcijs connection therewith while they were declaiming In their public utterances against all trusts He then proceeded as follos PROMISES KEPT x Now gentlemen I have a right to ask that you take our promises because be-cause In the past our promises have squared with our performances and I wish you to compare them with our efforts ef-forts and prophecies and sec the ic sults 1 I have spoken to you gentlemen about preaching the gospel of hate The foulest wrong that can bo done to our citizenship Is done by the man who preaches that gospel whether lie preaches to the employer to sec to it that the protection of his own Interests ate against the Interests of the employer em-ployer or whether he seuks tp combine politics and set them against their employers em-ployers It matters not which It Js wrong RECALLS CAMPAIGN OF1S02 Eight years ago In the election oi iso I wish to recall some experiences which you remember At that election an effort ins made not to try to set the West against thx East or the North against the South an effort was made to set theworklngmen against the capitalists cap-italists the wagsearnerrf against the man who paid the wages We iverc told that the capitalists had grown rich that the capitalist had prospered and that we should down him We got him down The country voted that way We got thr > capitalist down There Is l no question about that He was down all right but the trouble after af-ter that was that the rest of us were flown underneath him too Nobody i4mri iin nori iiiriv > oars The cap italists were mined and the wage worker came to the verge of starvation It was hard upon the men but It wu a thousandfold harder upon the women and children INTERESTS ARE MUTUAL Fundamentally tho law to He preached Is the law of brotherhood Fundamentally the doctrine that wi need here In this land Is that while prosperity comos to us unequally and adversity comes to us unequally yet when good times come all share something some-thing somewhat In them but when bad times come some suffer more than otn ers but all suffer to omc extent Our Interests are bound to be with one another an-other In 1S32 they voted down the capitalists and when they downed him off they found that they were Worse than before That was the effect of the action of misguided men Now gentlemen the only way to permanently secure wellbeing In this country Is to secure conditions thai Will 5 5 I secure the wellbeing of all Something can be done by legislation much cat bo done by associations of Individuals But in the last resort nothing can taXo the place of mans natural and Individ ual qualities Every man of us and every man here will slip at times will stumble now and then There Is not one of us that does not at times need to have a helping hand stretched out to him and woo to the man who does not stretch out his hand to help the man who Is unfortunate But if he lies down you may make tip your mind that you cannot carry him STAND BY REPUBLICANS I would like to go on and I appeal to you for the sake of our internal well being for the sake
