We cannot allow the dev opment of man to be circumscribed by ancient formulas. The Republican party stands pat; it is essentially the party of reaction. The Democratic party looks forward; it is essentlally the party of progress and liberalism. We treasure the wisdom of the ancients, we venerate and take full account of the experience of mankind, but we recognize that the human soul does not realize its greatest attainment within the confines of a machine, bet that machine of steel, a corporate or- ganization or of ancient formula. “The Democratic party views each morning’s sun as the light of a new day, we preach a gospel of hope and confidence. We stand above all ellse for the right of men to realize their aspirations tomorrow without being shackled by the prej- udiced, the ignorant or the selfishness of yesterday. Government Attitade Defined. “In that attitude of mind the Amer- ican Government must approach the solution of every problem. There can be no compromise with reaction. “There was a time in the great war when this country passed through a period of spiritual exaltation such us it had never known before. Every one was glad, yea, eager to sacrifice for the sake of whatever things were | true. The query of every citizen was: ‘What can I do for my neigh- bors and my friends? What can 1 do for my country? Such was an expression of a great faith, a faith in all that is best in America. There is nothing in the world worth so much to us as that.” He will make two addresses here today. Slang as She Is Spoke.
