- THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1924. ‘ ENTHUSIASM HERE RUNS HIGH IN OPENING REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN (Continued from Page One) of a vibrant voice and an easy platform personality, he talked straight from the shoulder in a way that drove home to his audience the acomplishments of the Republicans { nthe last four years. He said in pa: “Nothing is more important or vital to the life of this nation than its politics. We are here tonight to review what our officers have done in the past and determine who We will put in office for the next administration. An election is at hand’ and our old officers are asking to bo returned. We are a busy peo- ple. A few months ago is a long time ago, a few years seems so far way that we can‘hardly recall the idents, but we must stop to re- lew a few happenings before we n honestly decide on our course. “Let me take you back to 1912 and review the ensuing events that have taken place in the intervening years. In 1912 the Democrats were elected, @ Democratic president and congress, and they were told to govern the county; In 1916 the same thing happened. In 1920 we decided on a change. “Before going on I want to just barely mention that the tivo preced- ing periods of bad moncy and finan- celal stringency were when we had put the Democrats in power. “You will remember, going back to 4912, that from that year into 1914 things were beginning to tighten up, that we were on the verge of a depression. Then along came the war in 1914 and the ensu- ing four years were abnormal ones which we cannot consider in the same light a8 ordinary times in the United States. We will pass over that period. “In 1918 the war was over and we put a Republican congress in power but we still had a Democratic president. The country, if you will recall, was in quite a fix at that tUme. Financially we were in the Worst possible shape in the history of the United States. We were billion dollars in debt and runring the. country in a manner that was ridiculous. We had no books “and uo system and our business was in a deplorable state of affairs. “Slowly the realization seeped home but almost before it had our itepublican congress had statted mething practi to relieve the situation, “That Republican congress passe. the budget bill and it was vetoed by Wilson, That Republican congress passed an emergency tariff bill and ‘Wilron vetoed it. “By “this time the people were realizing more and more that some- thing must be dong and in 1920 we elected\Hurding by the largest ma- darity, that a president ever polled On of'that we elected a Repuil ligase ee hing “Ouryopponents will tél you th: this congress has done nothing. Le me take you back to the spring o! 1921 when that congress went ini’ office, The labor situation at that time was /alarming. 1 do not ask you to take my stutement on this tnatter but 1 ask you to refer to the statement of Samuel Gompers who sail a& that t'me thet 5,000,000 working men were walking the streets, out of employment. “The fears of the Republicans of 6 preceding few years had been vwalized. Chaep goods from Europe were pouring into this country and 805,000 payerty stricken immigrants ha Janded %n our shores in the preceding year to compete with our American labor. “Tkat congress slammed, through the budget bill. “That congress passed the emer- gency tariff in less than a month... “That congress passed the great- est single piece of administration on our xtatpte books, the restrictive immigration bill. “And our opponents will say that we have done nothing. “When that congress came into office the business affairs of this country were in chaos and con- fusion. ‘We had a debt of 24 billion and the world owed us 12» billion. Twelve billion and we had no se crulty, no bonds, no paper to show for it. ‘Since ‘that congress has been fn power we have received four billion in the form of bonds from England and negotiations are under way to secure the rest of the 12 billion that the world owes it. That four bil- lion dollars worth of bonds will be ~~ Daas, off by Great Britain in 62 ‘years. part’ of the principal and the interest yearly. “In the preceeding two years no “aitempt had been made to reduce our ational debt. In the last four years Swe have reduced it two billion mak-|_ ng our total national debt at the “present time 22 billion. “When that congress came into wer there was a civil service list Tot 646,000 people drawing pay from “the government. In the last two Years 100,000 of those have been Yopped off. And our opponents will Stell you we have done nothing. “Here is the situation that con- “fronts us. We have three main presi- Wential candidates, Coolidge, Davis “pnd LaFollette. You will remember how the Democrats met in New “York and after 12 hectic days of re- ‘Viewing 49 odd -candidates nomi- “nated Davis. You will remember Europe Regular sailings from New York, Montreal. how the Republicans met and in one day tnanimously endorsed Coolidge for the nomination. “You wif even remember how one day LaFollette said I want to be president.’ He had a meeting and he said ‘I don’t want any help on my platform, I’! write my own plat- form. Don't tell me anything about my rugning mate for vice president. T'll select the nominee. “I can't enumerate how many times LaFollette’s voice has been raised in the halls of congress in support of the direct primary and pure.democracy as he calls it. Yet when .the first real test comes he casts aside all his principles and sel- fishly takes advantage of the op- portunity of running ts hoping that the election of a president will be thrown into congress where he can use his personal influence in the | tight. “Harding wad taken away but thank God a man ham stepped in who is ably filling his place, He is the one man in the citizenry of the United States who should be in the presidency. We have been proud of our presidents. I cok back on the statesmanship of McKinley, the courage of Roosevelt and the big legal mind of Taft but as I consid er them all I can see in Coolidge the nearest approach to Abe Lin. coln. Coolidge’s paramount thought s how can I help the people and save money for them. Economy and then more economy. Reduce taxation and further reduce taxation. That is the sentiment that inspires. this man who, we expect to elect to the presidency. “Every one of us whether he is a professional man, a business man. a laboring man cr a farmer, is am- bitious, We all have stakes no mat- ter how small they are and we want to increase them in the next four years, The last few years have been ominous an dthe clouds have iooked } dark. But friends, the worst is over. Our 5,000,000 unemployed of 1920 are working for wages that the werk- ing man 25 rs "ago never of (25 y dreamed possible. the last six In | months the sun has jumped out and we have rosy prospects ahead. In the last ple of few months the peo- Europe that have been snar- nad spittt t each other begun to straighten out their wnimositie: and to bring order out ot They hav started on a plan that promises much. And that plan was originated by the hard headed business acumen and clear thinking of Charlie Dawes. They tell you of the league of nations and its possibilities. Let me tell you that Charlie Daw in a few months har done more to cyen up the export rade to Europe and to straighten ut their difficulties tan the league f nations will be able to do in the wstory of the present generation, “Let me ask you what would have happened in this ccuntry the last four years were it not for the tariff wall. The Europeans would have swept their home manufactured products into this country in such quantities that they would have wamped our markets, closed our factories and put millions out of employment. If it had not been for our restrictive immigration law they would have walked the ocean | gressive party was started and I, as to get here. “They will tell you that the party is corrupt. If they are it is the first time in my experience that I ever saw a bunch of looters: getting a thcokkeeper or putting a lock on the safe. “Are the big men of our country and our congress corrupt. I tell you no and to <upport my statements I point to that grand old veteran of =8 years’ service here on the plat- form with us againtt whom never « breath of scandal has been heard, The people don’t know the senator from New York, from Illinois or rom Connecticut but they al! know he senator from Wyoming. “Warren’s name, in any part ‘of the country, be {t east or west; is classed with-the 12 big men of the United. States senate, What does Wyoming rate with one congress- man and three electoral votes. 1t rates nothing. The whole state wouldn't make a good third class city back east. Our political influ- enee should be less than nothing. But thank God we have been repre- sented by n like Warren and Mondell who had nothing to give but thelr experience and their in fluence. Mondel| who out of 460 odd representatives Was chosen ° a8 speaker of the house and Warren out of 96 senators chosen as chair- man of the mort important commit- tee in congress, the appropriations committee. This is the committee that spends the five and a half mil- lions that it takes to run this gov- ernment annually. Warren has the experience, the ability, the knowledge ‘of political workings and the pect of his colleagues. Let us be careful to re- ain this power. The senate is the great deliber- ative body, the tupreme court of appeal that passes on the many half baked legislative ideas that are pro- mulgated in the house each term. We need men of foresight, of exper- lence and judgment in that bod: They wil! tell yo uwe need new man, that a change would do us good and that we should pass the honors around. You don’t want a change. What you want is what you've got. Former Governor Carey made a hit with ‘the audience in his opening remarks when he declared that he would rather make a ffolitical speech in Casper than‘in any city in the state. “It is a critical time in of the nation” said Mr. Care: and all of us who earnestly desire to con- tribute to the welfare of our coun: try must do our part. “We have three candidates for the presidency and of these, two meas- ure up to what a candidate should be. I do not want to see Bolshevism or socialism or any other ism in con- trol of this country and theird can- didate belongs in that class. “Coolidge is the only man of the three who has a chance of a major- in the electorial college. La Fol- lette hopes to throw the election in- to congress. He claims to represent the people and he takes on the name of ‘progressive.’ I want that I was one of the original s porters of Roosevelt when the pro- ENOS CATARERE Cleveland specialist's new combination internal er ceernal treatment guareniced (a felieve most ¢' Sarth in 24 hoursevor money back. atively der: HALL’S DRUG STORE history | well as any other man who support- ed Roosevelt, deeply resent LaFol- lette’s use of the word progressive. “The progressive party’s platform was a bill of rights for all the peo- ple. LaFollette’s p'atform is to build up a class government for one class only. Such a platform is wrong, politically and sich a platform is bound to be a failure. “LaFollette would like to take the power away from the supreme court and enable congress to veto its de- cisions. Congress {s in disrepute and needs an overhauling. It is too large to get the business of .the country accomplished as it should be. And yet LaFollette would like to place in its hands the supreme power of veto on supreme court de- cisions. “The Democrats are harping on the recent Inyestigations and sean- dals in Washington and forgetting, the good things the party has done. They forget their war-plus grafts when mi'lionalres were created over night. They forget their party lead- ers who have accepted legal retain- ers that were in reality bribes. “The time wil! never come when I wil stand on a platform and de- fend-or condone a Fall or a Forbes.

When a minister does wrong we do not condemn the whole church; we condemn the individual who did the wrong. “The class of.men most appealed to in any election campaign are the labor class and the farmers.
