Things finally quieted dowr and when Ar- kansas was called, thistate yielded to Ohia and Governor Wilis was recog- nized to place in nomintion Theodore E. Burton. Burton Nominaeq, In placing the name +f Senator Burton before the convertion, ‘Gov- frnor Willis said: £ “History is to be made he:e today ie shall make America greate: or dis- abpoint a world. A mighty peonle, yea, and nations beyond the sas await our verdict. We are not gah- ered to pluck the fragrant flowers of eloquence, to indulge in fulsome sdf- glorification or to engage in unhap- py factional contest. A reunited, dete-- Jnined, forward-looking republica warty demands that mere persona ambitions and pride of opinion shal give way to the welfare of the partr and the country. The faces of the mighty dead look down upon us and inspire us to achievement worthy of their heroic example. “United, we win; divided, the democrats win and the country loses.” “The republican party this year means business, and it expects us to transact that business patriotically un- selfishly and with an eve single to the nation’s weal. The fires of hatred and factional strife have burned out. Let no man sitting among the ashes seize a fast- dying ember of discord and wave it above his head as a battle-signal; the battle of 1912 is over—no apologies should be asked or given by any man for honest differences of opinion in that conflict—1912 is behind us, 1916 Is upon us—the question is not ‘What did vou do then?’ but ‘What are you going to do now? We face the future confident in the ability of the republican party to sense the vast problems of the day, diagnose our na- tional indisposition and provide a cure no matter how the vitality of the patient may have been sapped by four years of democratic experimentation nor how radical or far-reaching the treatment required “Nearly two generations ago and al- most on this very spot the republi- can party began to make national his- tory in the famous wigwam. When it came into being, it found a treasury bankrupt, busine: prostrate, the country divided and overclouded with impending civil war. Like the mighty Hamilton, “It touched the corpse of public credit and it sprang upon its feet”” It supported on its strong pro- tecting arm the frail and fainting in- dustries of the republic and brought them back to life; it kept all' the stars in the flag, their glory untar- nished and their luster undimmed; and It elected and re-elected to the pr dency the first great republican, the emancipator of a race, the most in- spiring soul in all our western world, Abraham Lincoln. “Thus brought into being in the travail of war, the republican party has written all there is worth reading of American history in the last five decades. It is but natural that a re- publican should take delight in recit- Ing his country’s history, for that is an up- er finished at 12 ) Root, another dem- gave signs of » { the history | full range to his imagi FOUR CANDIDATES i b of his party; ame token a democrat conceives a marked aversion for historp and gives jon in the wider field of prophec The republican party takes pride in its past, eagerly grapples with the problems of the present and faces the dawn with confidence and high pur- pose; our democratic friends would like to forget their party's past, they | are not certain of its present attitude and of next on any great natlonal question for the future they are thinking “Molasses to catch flies” at the election. “We are proud of what we have con- tributed to history, but our past per- formances are not our only We must not sit serene in fied contemplation of the work al- ready done; but inspired by an he- | roic past and chastened by the fires of defeat, let us gird up our loins to meet new conditions and fight new battles. Lexinglon and Yorktown had been failures but for Gettysburg and Ap- pomattox. Each generation has its battles to fight—its problems to solve. No party can win on pride of ancestry or richness of inheritance; it must be willing and able to do the world’s work now; it cannot stand still or turn back—it must go ahead. The republican party deserves to live and to win, because it has its face to the future, all aglow, in the consciousness of capacity for service in the solution of the problems of today and of the experience and patriotism to guide the 1ip of state on the untried, tempest- tossed seas of tomorrow. “The monumental folly and med- dling officiousness of the present na- tional. administration have needlessl: complicated the problems of the pres- ent and made imperative the return to power of the republican party to re- gain for the nation its lost prestige abroad and restore to its people a stable industrial prosperity founded on something more humanitarian and abiding than the misfortunes of our sister-nations. A prosperity fed upon dead men’s bones is ghastly and can- not long endure. A nation’s pride, a country welfare are at stake here. This is the time and place for clear thinking, passionless poise and unsel- fish purpose. The eyes of thegworld are upon you; you ‘shall nobly save or meanly lose the last best hope of earth.’ The republican party was made to handle a situation like the present. Our foreign relations are now in a hopele tangle, and Americans are less proud of their country than they once were, even though we are as- sured on high authori that ‘we are too proud to fight.” The foreign pol- icy of the national administration has brought chagrin at home and con- tempt abroad; it has vacillated be- tween the pen and the sword, and its policy of ‘watchful waiting’ has dem- onstrated that there is more of ‘wait- ing’ than of ‘watchfulness.’” We have alternately coddled all the chief ban- dits in Mexico and supplied them with the bullets which are now being sent back to us in the mangled bod- ies of our citizens and soldiers. We have lost the confidence and gained the ill will of every nation in Europe; their good will and confidence can be regained only by the republican policy of fairness to all, favoritism to none, with the maintenance of an absolute unflinching neutrality among all the belligerent powers. “The evil effects of the outworn sec- tional tariff-policy, adopted by the national administration, have been to some extent, obscured by the fever- ish, ephemeral activity which is the outgrowth of the lamentable Furo- pean conflict. Every sane man knows that but for this unnatural and in- humane stimulus our industries would be prostrate, and we would be face to face with industrial depression, such as we have not seen in half a century. And when this world-war ends, another trial war will begin; but that will be an industrial war that will know no neutrals—all will be bel- ligerents, As a military and naval preparedness adequate to make any nation or combination of nations hes- itate to violate the rights of our citi- zens or the sanctity of our flag is a guaranty of peace, so industrial prep- aration through the enactment of a republican protective tariff law is es- sential, if we would maintain Amer- ican wage rates and standards of liv- ing. In the midst of world problems, we need in the White House a red-blood- ed American who knows the world. The states of Central and South Amer- ica are now luke-warm and suspicious we must nominate as our candidate a man who knows them and whom they know. The spirit of Pan-Amer- icanism first found its expression in the ringing voice of the Plumed Knight, James G. Blaine; if we would regain our lost prestige in Latin America and secure for our people the opportunity for commercial expansion which those countries afford we must head of the nation a man in sym- pathy with the aspirations and ac- quainted with their needs. The nom- inee of this convention must be a republican seasoned in the experiences of the past, alive to the needs of the present and able to hear and heed the beckoning voice of the oncoming future. He must be a fearless op- advocate of old-fashioned economy; he must know the fiscal system of the country and be an uncompromising defender of the patriotic nation-build- ing policy of protection to American workingmen and American enterprise. He must personify in record and character the ideals and aspirations of the rank and file of the party and thus promote harmony and unity holding fast to the lessons of wise ex- perience on the one hand and promot- ing sane progress on the other. His record must be not only unimpeach- able, but it must be well there must be nothing to nothing to explain aw: apologize for. In public career and iniprivate life there must be no flaw in his armor, no stain upon his shield. He must be a man of un- daunted courage—he must be un- afraid to challenge powerful influ- ences in his own or any other party, if they block the way of progress. His leadership must be that which uncover, comes from the successful advocacy and by the | win their confidence by placing at the | ponent of extravagance and a staunch | of | known— | nothing to | of great principles as well as from the possession of attractive, com- | manding, inspiring personali Per- | sonal leadership alone would leave the party confused and disorganized at the end of the presidential term; lead- ership crystallized about the great principles of the republican party will leave it cohesive and harmonious, un- divided by personal factions. The greater than any one man, however great and wise his leadership may be. This is a government of principles and of laws, not of men. Such are the qualities of leadership our candidate must have, and such a candidate Ohio offers to the nation. “The blood of the Grants Is in his veins—he is a man of dauntle courage and untiring industry. His boyhood home was the Western Rg- serve—he fought his own way—he knows the life of the common people. He came from the section of the state which gave the nation Wade and Giddings Garfield and McKinley—he drank deep at the fount of their in- spiring example—he represents in his life the best traditions of our party. “As a member of congress for six- teen eventful years he took prominent part in the legislation of that period, embracing within its scope the Span- ish-American War, sound money, the tariff, anti-trust laws, banking and financial legislation, conservation, bet- terment of labor conditions—he helped make republican history and that is the history of progress. As a campaigner, he has few equals and no superiors—in his contests be- fore the people of his district, he ran always many hundreds and some- times many thousands ahead of his ticket—the people belicved in him then—they will trust him and elect him, if nominated by this convention. “Elevated to the senate in 1909, he at once took the high station to which he was entitled by his wide experi- ence, his profound learning, his abil- ity as a debater, his high character and his unflinching devotion to public duty. He fought the peoples’ fight for economy—and won, not only the battle, but the esteem and respect of friend and foe alike. “As author, scholar, statesman, he is a recognized authority in legisla- tion and’ discussion pertaining to monetary and banking affairs—Ilegiti- mate business would feel segure under his administration. “He is the greatest living authority on the world's waterways—he stood: for a thorough, efficient system of waterway improvement, but he fought political log-rolling and pork-barrel extravagance — his administration would be one of broad vision tem- pered by wise economy. His long ex- perience and notable career in house and senate would give him command- ing advantage—knowing the view- point and the methods of congress, there would be mutual understanding and helpful co-operation between the two branches of the law-making powe: “His private life is as clean as his public career is distinguished; genial and approachable, he possesses the ‘rugged grandeur of the great’ and presents in its best light, inspiring, uplifting party leadershi He is kind without heing effusive, cordial without the familiarity which breeds contempt, scholarly without being pedantic; he is gentle without being weak and firm without being dic torial. His modesty and unobstru- siveness are excelled only by his cor- diality and warmth to those who know him best. He is common without be- ing common-place. He is loved by his friends, feared by his antagonists and respected by all. Tt is no dispar- agement of any of the eminent repub- licans who are candidates before this convention, when T that no man in America is better fitted for the high office of president by natural ability, by breadth of vision, by wide acquaintance with world-problems, by successful experience, by high pur- pose and lofty character than is Ohio’s candidate. “In obedience to the command of a united party in our state and voicing the unanimous sentiment of her dele- gation, T present for vour considera- ation Ohio’s choice for the presidency that scholar, leader, statesman, that citizen of the world—with another we can win, with him we cannot fai 1 nominate for the office of presi- dent of the United States, Theodore E. Burton.” Lodge Names Weeks. Connecticut on the call of states, vielded to Massachurzetts, and Senator Iedge took the John W, Weeks. Born and bred in New Hampshire, adopted by Massachusetts, the can- didate whose name I am about to pre- sent, commands the confidence and the high respect of these two old states, whose names stand together on the Declaration of Independence and on the Constitution of the United States. Admitted to the al Academy in 1877, he received not only the thor- ough education which is there always given, but he also learned those lessons of patriotism of honor, and of devotion to the country and to the flag which are never forgotten by the graduates of Annapolis and West Point. After leaving the navy he attainea in civil life to a large and well-earned success in the business world, whose trust he never failed to command. In that practical school he acquired a wide knowledge of all the great economic policies and of the problems of finance upon which the prosperity of the country so largely depends. In 1898, when war came to us; he returned at once to the pro- fession of his youth and served his country in naval command during the conflict with Spain. He was chos- en to be mayor of Newton ,the city where he lives, in 1903, and after an administration of great succ he was elected a member of congress. In the house he r to the front rank | of economic questions and a legislator of marked constructive ability.

A Det- platform He ia: to present are republican party and its principles are | | schoot responsible of public offices could not be devised, and this training rests on the firm foundation of distin- guished abilities, strong and upright character and a reputation without blemish or reproach. The first duty of the republican party in the coming campaign is to drive from power the administration and the party which have so gravely injured us at home and so deeply dis- credited us abroad. In this great task we invite the cooperation of all ci zens who share our views in regard to the present administration and urge them to join with us in the work of bringing the country back to the sound economic policies under which the material prosperity of the repub- lic has been built up during the last half century, and in restoring the in- fluence and position bevond our own borders which the United States once held but which have been lost in the last three years. To do this we must have a candidate who will com- mand support bevond the strict lim- its of the party and receive it from all men who sympathize with our pur- poses. We must have a man who is in thorough accord with republican principles. Our candidate must be a man who believes in the protection of American rights by land and sea and who will maintain an honest and real neutrality; who loves peace, the peace of justice and right, and who at the same time thoroughly believes in a preparation both in the army and navy which will absolutely defend and secure not only our peace but our ghts and our honor. We must have a man who believes in American pol- icics and the protection of American interes who is American through and through. Most of all, we must have a man who believes that this great nation is one—one in ideals, in hopes, in aspirations; a man who be- lieves that all Americans should be loyal to American traditions, who rep- resents the conscience and the soul of the American people; a man who will not only use the power of his great office to advance wise policies and protect American rights but who be- lieves that it is his duty above all things to keep the faith—the faith of the men who followed Washington at Trenton and of those who fell at burg. a man, in every fibre of his being, is the candidate I am now to present to you, and I name to you as that candidate for the nomination for president of the United States the Honorable John Wingate Weeks, of Massachusetts.
