But, believing that the great majority of the people who have the power of determining the course of our country's affairs bring to the exercise of that power the same degree of Interest, Intelligence and care which they are accustomed to exercise In the discharge of their person! matters, I will assume that they have n desire to perform their public duties consciously and well, and will act upon their judgment, based upon what they know and what they believe. Against the proposition of the Republican party, with Its record of patriotism and progress, that Theodora Roosevelt be accepted by the country for what he Is, what he has done and what he stands for, there la opposed the Democratic party, with ita platform of uncertainty and abuse, it record of opposition to everything that haa materially advanced the national welfare during the last fifty years, and a candidate of singular conceptions and pleasant personality, who proclaims as admirable hia party's bill of haa been done for the country through Republican initiative and Republican performance.

The personality of the President haa been assailed in the Democratic platform and In authoritative Democratic utterances both directly and by innuendo. Hla temperament la unsatisfactory, he la too robust, he sees too qulcky. he acta too effectively, and, generally, he in not the type the opposition prefers. The high mental and temperamental qualifications for hla great office with which he has been endowed by ble Creator are imputed to the President aa a fault. Hla ability to see quickly and comprehend dearly, sfhlch enables him to act positively and timely, have brought upon him the charge of being arbitrary and spectacular. Indeed, the Presidents peculiar fitness for public service, which haa made him a percu-llarl- y fit public servant of hla state and the nation, la the vice of darkest shade" for which he must account. He ia accused of lack of gravity, and surely lacka that type which is said to be a mvsterious carriage of the body Intended to conceal tha defects of the CITY, UTAH, SUNDAY or, are tha facta of general cognisance and concern by which an administration la Judged and for which it must account. The Democratic party, recognising this fact, seeks in moat general terms to reflect upon the president and his party for sins of commission or omission In respect of nil these great policies. Thera la no dealra to avoid thesa criticisms. Indeed, the main difficulty haa been to get aomethlng specific enough from the opposition to merit n reply. What the Republican party haa done has been done In the open. In spite of petty and quernlous opposition.

The Iron waa Inserted and concealed In tha block for the purpose of Increasing tha weight to the legal requirement of six life prepounds of good cork for each server. The men arrested will be arraigned probably early next week before the United States district court of New Jersey to plead to the indictment. . Early In August David Kahnweiler s Sons, manufacturers of life preservers In New York City, ordered from the Nonpareil Cork Works In Camden. New Jersey, blocks of compressed corks for 1,750 Ufa preservers. Eight of these blocks are used In each preserver and the United Ststea law requires that the of eight blocks contain six pounds decork. When the cork blocks were livered It was discovered that eight of the blocks weighed only five nnd n bait pounds. Kahnweiler's Bona thereupon wrote the Nonpareil Cork Works and adthat company replied that it would ust the matter by sending to Kahn-weileextra Son some heavy blocks, one of which could be used in each life preserver, thus increasing ita weight to the legal requirement. Ih due time the blocks arrived. They were ao heavy as to arouse Instant suspicion. One of them waJ broken, and embedded In Its center waa found an Iron bar six Inches long, one Inch wide, nnd quarter of an inch thick, weighing Sons eight ounces.

According to the Indictment n letter waa received In reply suggesting that the Kahnweiler's Sons were foolish af-to make ao much trouble about n small fair of that kind. Further examination of tha extra heavy blocks" disclosed the fact that each of them contained an iron bar similar to that which waa found In extra j first on.

Dolllver addressed a great audience In the armory In this city at which United Stales Senator John H. Mitchell presided. There were no speeches in Oregon until Portland waa reached, but the portion of the day spent In Washington was largely devoted to oratory, Senator Fairbanks speaking at all the points at which stops were made and Senators Dolllver, Fulton and Ankeny alternating. Aa If by general understanding the people at moat of the towns In Washington at which there were stops during the day, made a liberal play of the American colors. This demonstration was especially pronounced at Castle Rock and Senator Fairbanks found In It a text for tha principal part of his discourse. I am glad," he said, to see the American Flag la of these young people, and middle-agepeople. Wherever the flag is, you may rest asintelare are there where sured you ligence and patriotism. Tha nag has a very appropriate place in Republican meetings, for the Republican party haa done more to uphold it and extend It ia Influence and power than any other party since the birth of the republic. During the last seven yeara of Republican administration, the American flag haa been carried Into the Is lands of the distant seas. It waa car ried there by the valor of our sailors and soldiers, and raised in honor, not aa the symbol of tyranny, and imperialism, but as the symbol of Republicanism. The flag of the republic has never been raised anywhere by the Republican party except In honor and where it haa raised it, no alien power dare attempt to take It down. In hla speeches Senator Fulton spoke freely of the possibility of Senator Fairbanks becoming the nominee Presip the Republican party (or the words dency at no distant day. Hla on that point at Castle Rock were as followa: Senator Fairbanks was nominated not because he for sought the nomination, for he did not, but because the people, recognizing his Splendid character and broad statesmanship demanded hia services and he bowed to their will. And I now make this prophesy, that when President Rooeevelt shall have served the term to which he certainly will be elected In November and the Republicans meet to name hie successor the will decline to look beyond Fairbanks for a candidate and then aa our standard bearer will he lead na on to victory. On the atage with Senator Fairbanks and Senator Mitchell were Senators Dolliver and Fulton, ex Senator McBride, Congressman Hermann and of Mayor Williams, attorney-genera- l the United Siatee under President Grant The speakers were received with hearty applause when they entered the building, and the cheers were frequently repeated aa the meeting progressed. Aside from a general discussion of political Issues, Senator Fairbanks congratulated the city of Portland upon Its approaching Lewis and Clarke Exposition, remarking among other expressions on that subject: The government contribution to the . the-Jiand- s d t, exposition la essentially a Republican contribution, Thu Republican party haa done more for the development of the country than any other party since the birth, of the Republic, and it la in accordance with the fitness of things that there should be held here an exposition commemorative of a great historic event, an event which marked the expansion of our national domain and laid the ground work for larger development of our Industrial and commeclal power. He then spoke of the record of the Republican party In the matter of tei rltorlsl extension and trade expansion and In this connection referred to the acquisition of the Philippines, saying on that point: The agitation of Philippine independence under existing conditions Is unwise. Iu only practical effect will be to create uncertainty and unrest and lay the ground work for future misunderstandings in the Philippine Islands and make more difficult the work the government la ao successfully doing there. We have been In possession of the islands for six yeara and from tha beginning of our occupation a school of statesmen In the United Ststea haa persistently advocated Philippine Independence. Our Democratic friends have been quite eager to find in the Philippines situation an Issue which would obscure other Issues upon which they stand repudiated by the American people and which would hand over to them the control of the government in Washington. Oar duty In the Philippines la perfectly plain. With the overthrow of Spanish power and the cession of the Islands to tha United States by the treaty of peace, what were we to do? Were we to run away and leave those people who had never known and who were in all stages of civilisation to run riot? In Manila and other cities, thousands of people of different nationalities were engaged In business under Spanish protection which we have destroyed. Were we Justified in leaving them to the rule of anarchyf Some of our opponents were unable, under the constitution to find warrant for our remaining. We remained in the Philippines not only because it was lawful, but because the obligation of manifest duty .and Christian civilization commanded us to do aa We stayed to hold disorder In check and to discharge ia full measure a supreme duty. We shall meet our duty in the Philippines intellingently and bravely and without subverting our Republican Institutions. No one need fear that we shall fell to discharge oar obligation to the Filipinos in a way to advance their Interests and the honor of the United States.
