PAGE TWO BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE 1920 THURSDAY, JULY 22, | Harditig Dooms (0, P. NOMINEE SAYS ONE MAN RULE MUST GO Advocates Party Responsibility as Distinguished From Per- sonal Rule of President SHUNS NO RESPONSIBILITY For Protective Tariff, Merchant Marine, Small Army, Woman Suffrage, National Budget Marion, Ohlo—(Special). Warren | G. Harding was officially notified here of his nomination as tfe. Republican candidate for the presidency, His speech of acceptance is, in part, as follows: , Chairman Lodge, members of noti- fication committee, members of na- tional committee, ladies and gentle- men: The message which you have formally conveyed brings to me a realization of responsibility which is not underestimated, It is a supreme task to interpret the covenant of a great political party, the activities of which are so woven into the history of this republic and a very sacred and solemn undertaking to utter the faith and aspirations of the many millions who adhere to that party. The party platform has charted the way, yet, somehow, we have come to expect that interpretation which voices the faith of nominees who must assume specific tasks, Let me be understood clearly from the very beginning. I believe in party sponsorship in government. I believe in party government as distinguished from personal government, individual, dictatorial, autocratic or what not. * No man is big enough to run this great republic. There never has been one. Such domination’ was never in- tended. Tranquility, stability, depend: ability—all are assured in party spon- sorship, and we mean to renew the assurances which were rended in the cataclysmal war, Our first committal 4s the. restoration of representative popular government, under the consti- tution, through the agency of the Republican party. Our vision includes More -than a chief executive, we be- lieve in a cabinet of highest capacity, equal to the responsibilities which our system contemplates, in. whose coun- cils the vice president, second. official of the republic, shall be asked to participate. The same vision includes @ cerdjul understanding sand eo- ordinated activities with a house of congress, fresh from the- people voic- ing the convictions which members bring from direct contact with the electorate and cordial cboperation along with the restored functions of the senate, fit to be the greatest de- liberative body of the world. it is not difficult, Chairman Lodge, to make ourselves clear on the ques- tion of international relationship. We Republicans of the senate, conscious of our solemn oaths and mindful of our constitutional obligations, when we saw the structure of a world) super-government taking visionary form, joined in a becoming warning of our devotion to this republic. If: the torch of ‘constitutionalism had not been dimmed, the delayed peace of the world and the tragedy of disappoint- ment and Europe’s misunderstanding of America easily might have been avoided. - The’ Republicans of the! senate halted the barter of independ- ent American eminence and Influence, which it was proposed to exchange for an obscure and unequal place in the merged government of the world. Our party means to hold the heritage of American. ngtionality unimpaired and unsurrendered. The world will: not misconstrue. We do not mean to hold aloof. We} do not mean to shun a single re-! sponsibility of this republic to world | civilization, . There is no hate in the | American heart. We have no envy, no suspicion, no aversion for any peo- ple in the world. We hold to our rights and mean to defend, aye, we mean to sustain the rights of this bation and our citizens alike every- q@here under the shining sun. Yet there is the concord of amity and sympathy and fraternity in every resolution, There 1s a genuine aspir- ation in every American breast for a tranquil friendship with alf the world, One may réadily sense the con- science of our America, I am sure I understand the purpose of the domin- ant group of the senate.- We were not seeking to defeat a world aspiration, we were resolved to. safeguard Amere ica. We were resolved then, even as we are today, and will-be tomorrow, to preserve this free and independent republic, In the éall of the conscience of America is peace, peace that closes the gaping wounds of world war and silences the impassioned voices: of in- ternational envy and distrust.

Disposed as we are, the is very suuple, Let the failure attending as- sumption, obstinacy, and delay be recognized, and let u {find the big, practical, unselfish way to do our part, neither cause of ambition nor hesitant through fear, but ready to serve ourselves; humanity and God, With .a senate advising as the constitution contem- plates, I would hopefully approach the nations of Europe and of the earth, proposing that understanding which makes us a willing participant in the, consecration of nations to a new reiationship, to commit the moral forees of the world, America included, to peace and international justice, still leaving Ameri¢a free, independent and self-reliant, but offering friendship to all the world. It is folly to elose our eyes to out- standing facts. Humanity restive, much of the world is in revolution, the agents of - discord and destruction have wrought their tragedy in pathetic Russia, have lighted their torches among other peoples, and hope to see America as a part of the great red conflagration, Ours Is the temple of liberty under the law, and it is ours rovetous he- to call the sons of-opportunity to its defenge, America\ must not only save herself, but ours must be the appeal- ing voice to’sober the world, It must be understood that toil alone makes for accomplishment and advancement, and righteous possession incen- tive. There is 10 progress except in the stimulus of competition. The chief trouble today is that the world war wrotght the destruction of health- ful competition, left our storehouses empty and there is a minimum pro- duction when our need is maximum, Maximums not minimums is the call of America, It isn’t a new s cause war never fails to ve dle- pleted storehou: and always impairs the effi¢iency of production, War also establishes its higher Standards’ for 1 wish the higher wage to abide, on one explicit condition--that the wage-earner will give full return for the wage received. I want, somehow, to appeal to the sons and daughters of the republic, to every producer, to join hand and brain in production, more production, honest production, patriotic produc- tion, because patriotic production is no less a defense of our best civiliza- tion than that of armed force. » Profit- eering is a crime of commission, underproduction is a crime of omis- sion, We must work our most and best else the destruction reaction will come, The menacing tendency of the pres- ent day is not chargeable wholly to the unsettled and fevered conditions wused by the war, The manifest weakness in popular governinent lies eitizenship for political advantage. It would be the blindness of folly to ignore the activities in our own coun- try which are aimed to destroy our economic tem, and to commit us to the colossal tragedy which has de- stroyed all freedom and made Russia impotent, This movement is not to be halted in throttled liberties, We must aot abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom of pr or the freedom of assembly, because there is ‘not promise in repression. These liber- ties are as sacred as the freedom of religious belief, as inviolable as the of rights life andthe pursuit of happiness. We do hold to the right to erush sedition, to stifle a menacing contempt for law, to stamp out a peril {to the safety of the republic or its people, when .emergency calls, be- gause security and the majesty of the law are first essentials of liberty. He who threatens destruction of the gov- ernment by force or flaunts his con- tempt for lawful authority, ¢ to be a loyal citizen and forfeits his “rights to the freedom of the republic. No party is indifferent to the welfare of the ge earner, To us his good fortune is of deepest concern and we ee ee em ee ! the present day insufficiency and in- is a sanetity in that right we will not! impracticability | tn the temptation to appeal to grouped | | Beek to make that good fortune per- | manent. We do not oppose but sal | prove collective ‘bargaining © because | that is an outstanding right but we unalterably insistent that its ex- se must not destroy the equally er sacred right of the individual in’ his ry pursuit of livelihood, Any unm has the right to quit his ergployment; so has every American the right to seek employment. The group must not endanger the indI- | vidual, and we must discourage groups preying upon one another and none shall be allowed to forget that the government's obligations are alike .to all the people, We are so confident that, much of efficiency of transportation are due to the withering hand of government operation that we emphasize. anew our opposition to government ownership. We want to expedite the reparation ind make sure the mistake is “not repeated, tate of inadequate transportation facilities, mainly chargeable to the failure of governmental experiment, is losinig millions to agriculture, It is hindering industry, it is menacing the American people with a fuel shortage little less than a peril, It emphasizes the present-day problem and suggests that spirit of encouragement and as- tanee which commits all America to relieve’such an emergency) Gross expansion of currency and credit have depreciated the dollar just "§ expansion and inflation have dis- credited the’coins of the world. We inflated in haste, we must deflate in deliberation. We debased the dollar in reckless-finance, we must restore in honesty. In all singerity wg promise the prevention of unreasonable profits, we challenge profiteering with all the moral force und the legal powers of government and people but it is fair, aye, it is timely, to give reminder that law is not the sole corrective of our economic ills, Let us call to all the people for thrift and economy, for deni: and sacrifice if need be for'a nation-wide drive against extravagance and lux- ury, to a recommittal to simplicity of liying, to that prudent and normal plan of life which is the health of the republic. New conditions which at- tend amazing growth and extraordin- ary industrial development eall for a new and forward looking \ program. The American farmer had a hundred and twenty millions to feed’ in the home market, and heard the cry of the world for food'-and answered it, though he faced an appalling task amid handleaps never encountered be- fore. Contemplating the defenseless- ness of the indiivdual farmer to meet the organized buyers of his products and the distributors of the things the farmer buys, I hold that farmers should not only be permitted but en- couraged to join in cooperative associ- ation to reap the just measure of re- ward merited by their arduous toil. Our platform is ‘an earnest pledge of renewed concern for this most es- sential and elemental industry and in both appreciation and interest we pledge effective expression in law and practica, We will hail that coopera- tion which again will make profitable and desirable the owne ip and op- eration of comparatively small farms intensively cultivated, and which wil: facilitate the caring for the products of: farm and orchard wtihout the la- mentable waste under present condi- tions. America would look with anxiety on the discouragement of farming activ- ity either through the government’s neglect or its paralysis by secialistic practices. A Republican administra- tion will be committed to renew regard for agriculture, and seek the partici- pation of farmers in curing the ills justly complained of, and aim to place the American -farm where it ought to be highly ranked in American aetivi- ties and fully sharing the highest good fertunes of American life, Becomingly associated with this subject are the policies of irrigation and reclamation, so essential, to agri- cultural expansion;.and the continued development of the great and wonder- ful west. It is our purpose to continue and enlarge federal aid, not in see- tional partiality, but for the good of all America, I believe the budgét system will éffect a necessary, helpful 1eformation and reveal business methods to gov- ernment business, I believe federal departments should be made more businesslike and send back to productive effort thousands of federal employes, who are either du- | plicating work or not essential at all. I believe in the protective tariff | policy and know we will be calling for Its saving Americanism again, I believe in a great, merchant ma- rine, I would have this republic the leading maritime nation of the world. I believe in a navy ample to protect and able to assure-us dependable de- fense. I believe in a small army but the best in the world with a mindfulness for preparedness which would avoid. the unutterable cost of our previous neglect. : I believe in our eminence in trade abroad, which the government should aid in expanding both in revealing markets and speeding cargoes, I believe in establishing standards for immigration which are concerned with the future gitizenship of-the re- public, not with meré man power in industry. I believe that every man who dons the garb of American citizenship and walks In the light of American op- portunity must become American in heart and soul, I believe in holding fast to every forward step in unshackling child labor and elevating conditions of wo- man's unemployment. I believe the federal government \utocratic Rule | should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America, I believe the federal government should give its effective aid in solving the problem of ample and becoming housing of its eftizens. I believe this government. should make its Liberty and Victory bonds worth all that. its patriotic citizens paid in pureffasing them. I believe the tax burdens imposed for the war emergéncy must be re- vised: to the needs of peace and in the interest Of equity in distribution of the burden, I believe the negro citizens of Am- erica should be guaranteed the enjoy- ment of all. their rights, ‘that they have earned the full measure of citi- zenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in plood on’ the battlefields of the republic have. entitled them to all of; freedom and opportunity, all of jsym- pathy and aid, that the American spirit of fairness and justice démands, I believe there is an easy and open path to righteous rejationship with Mexico, It has seemed to me that our undeveloped, uncertain, and. infirm policy has made us a culpable party; ‘to the. governmental misfortunes in that land, Our relations ought to be both friendly and sympathetic, We would like to acclaim a stable gov- ernment there and offer a neighborly hand in pointing the way to greater progre: I believe in-law enforcement, If elected I mean to be a constitutional president nnd it is impossible to ignore the constitution, unthinkable to evade the law, when our every committal. is to orderly government, The four mil- lion defenders on land and sea wer worthy of the best traditions of a people, never_ warlike in peace and never pacifist In war, They com manded our. pride. They have our gratitude which must have the genu- ine expression. It is not only a duty, it Is a privilege to see that the sacri- fices made shall be requited and that those . still suffering from casualties and disabilities shall be abundantly aided and ‘restored to the highest; mubilities of citizenship and its en- joyment. The womanhood of America, al- ways its glory, its inspiration and the potent uplifting force in its social and spiritual development, about to be enfranchised. Insofar as qopgress can go the fact is already accomplished. By party edict, by my recorded vote, by personal conviction, I am conmit- ted to this measure of justice. Tt i my earnest hope, my sincere desire, that the one needed state vote he quickly recorded in the affirmation of the right of equal suffrage and that the vote of every citizen shall be cast and counted in the approaching elee- tion, noble women who have opposed in conviction this tremendous change in the ancient relation of the sexes as applied, by government, I venture to plead that they will accept the full responsibility ,of enlarged citizenship and give to the best In the republic, their suffrage and support. Ours is not only a fortunate people} but a very common-sensical people, with vision high but their feet on the earth, with belief in themselves and faith in God. Whether enemies threat: ened from without or menaces, arise from within, there Is some indefinable voice -that says, “Have confidence in the republic, America will go’ on.” Did She Mean Just That? “T want you to forget thit I told you I didn’t mean what I said about not taking back my refusal to change my mind. I’ve been thinking it over, and T’ve decided that I was wrong in the first place.” The Man—"You don't really mean that, do you, Dotly?”— London Matl. REPUBLICANS LEAVE COM- MITTEE MEETING. DOMIN- ATED: BY LEAGUE AND FOR A NEW ORGANIZATION (Continued from Page One) the league men and E. J. Fogarty was nominated by Theodore Koffel. ‘I nominate a manfor chairman who has done the Republican party good service, who‘is a Republican through amd through, and who is active, fair and square,” said Koffel: Mr. Fogarty is a farmer. The vote was 30 to 21 in favor of Tryge. The same procedure was gone through in nominating’ A. H. Knowl- ton for permanent secretary and G, IN. Livdahl, Knowlton being elected, King Named. Next was the nomination for state committeeman, Koffel was named! as was S. J. King. The league men clect- ed King. About this time, the convention ap! parently going along as scheduled, Mr. Prater left the hall. The chairman started to appoint a committee of three to report on reso- lutions. \ “Why have a committee?” Livdahl. “Why not present from the floor?” The matter was put to a vote. The league mien voted solid and a com- mittee composed of John Byers, Joe Varley and John Salter was named, and given ten minutes to report reso- lutions. They conferred in a corner and then presented a typewritten resolution, al- ready prepared. The Resolution. The resolution passed by the Non- partisan delegates follows: “Whereas the cost of living is constantly rising, and z “Whereas the national congress is doing ‘nothing to’ ‘relieve the situation, and f “Whereas © the — ‘Nonpartisan League program offers:the only practical solution and actual re- asked them listration of the Republican party this And to the gréat number of I lief ithe, opperssion caused by: the /manipulatdrs and “profiteers,” “Therefore, be it' resolved, that we renew our allegiance to the Nonpartisan League and commend Governor Frazier for his earnest zeal in carrying out the wishes of the people in the face of the vicious obstructionist tactics of the representatives. of the profi- teering interests. “Be it further resolved that we commend the’ industrial commis- sion for its faithfulness in starting the industrial program, and “Be it turtner resolved that we pladge our active support to the ‘Nonpartisan ‘League and its in- dustrial program.” : No Republican was named—the Re- publican congress being copdemned. Livdah] rose to offer an amendment, presenting a typewritten resolution. There was_objection, Gag Rule Stopped. The chairman was going to let the house decide whether it wanted the amendment offered, but was called and the gag-rule was not invoked. “Are you chairman of this meeting?” lemanded Livdahl. “Yes,” replied Trygg. “Then, I want to know if you will receive an amendment to the motion pending before the house?” Trygg wanted the house to decide, but backed down and the gag-rule was not lnveked, ghter for Lincoln, Mr. Livdahl then yead the resolution. It reviewed the party’s history. When he read a portion” praising Lincoln, McKinley, Garfield and Roosevelt there was laughter from the Nonpar- tisans. i “That's a long time ago,” interrupt- ed one man. When Livdahl read the portion de- nouncing the Frazier administration there were side-glances and then laughter from the league, and cheers from the anti-Townley men. Livdahl’s motion. was seconded by A. M. Blex- rude of near Rega — Theodore Koffel spoke in support of the amendment. “Don’t nd here convicted by your own aets of frauds and)misrepresenta- tions,” he said to the) Nonpartisans. “This resolution is merely offered in support of the Republican party, and this is a Rep blican committee.” s Extravagance, He attacked the state administra- tion’s extri “igance and denounced the smelling committee, socialistic mea: ures and other acts of the state re- gime. He was interrupted by one man, “Are you afraid to listen to the truth, and does it hurt?” There were answers of “no” “Tsn’t it true that under the admin- nation has become the greatest nation in the world?” he asked. There was applause from the minority side; none from the majority. ’ Alone 'Ttwo Years Ago. Koffel told them that two years ago he was alone in the committee meet- ing and when he introduced a patriotic resolution he was the only one to vote for it. ~ “Now we have 21 today, and on one or two questions we have voted to- '. The signs are encouraging,” resolutions, the committe: the resolutions He said he didn’t expect to report that part of h condemned the sier administration, but that he did think the committee would say something about national issues, : “1am pained that they (the major- ity members) should have such dir- regard for the truth as to call them- selves Republicans, and come here and say they are something else,” said Livdahl. The vote was 30 to 21 against the amendment, r Where Was Swanson? There then was a demand for a roll- cal lon the original resolution as re- ported by the committee. There was objection from the league side until R. R. Boyd rose and declared that everyone should go on record. Another man rose and said that if a roll-call were demanded the chairman must give it. About this time one of the Republicans was looking around to see C, A. Swanson, Nonpartisan coun- ty commissioner, named by the league. He was missing from’ his place, this man said. But the delegates did not have to go on record. Koffel rose and declared he would not stay in such a meeting. “If we condemn the Republican con- S$ we cannot be Republicans,” he nd left. Es r the 21 left, the Nonpartisans quickly finished their work. The or- iginal resolutions were adopted with- out a dissenting vote. Members of an executive committee were named and the meeting was adjourned. During the entire meeting little was said by. the league men, nearly all of the talking being done by the opposi- tion. S. J; King rose at one time when his right to sit was questioned be- cause 6f a technicality sand talked in favor of the industrial program. An- other man at another time declared some of Mr. Koffel’s remarks were un- called for. New Meeting Begins. The meeting of the 21 “bolters” was called to order by Theodore Koffel in the sheriff's office. B.-C. Fogarty was elected temporary chairman and G. N. Livdahl was made temporary secr tary. It was moved and passed that all delegates present or represented by proxy be considered as permanent members of the real Republican com- mittee for Bureligh county. It was moved and passed that the temporary organization be made permanent. Rejected Resolution Passed. The resolution, pledging support to the national party’s platform and can- didates, which was rejected by the original committee, was unanimously passed by the “committee of 21.” The primaries being over, the -Re- publican county organization will be re-established, it was said. Mr. Kof- fel was elected as committeeman to the state central committee. A resolution’ empowering the chair- man and secretary to correspond with and appoint precinct men was passed. Those Present, The committee was composed of the & sai 1 following men: W. J. Taylor, R. R. Boyd, C. A. An- derson, Theron Ellison, E. C. Fogarty, J. N. Bertholf, Martin Bourgois, Albin Erstrom, C.
