NEW. BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1916, NOMISATIONS MADE AT G 0.P. NEETING All Speakers Sure They're Candi- dates Are the Chosen Moseses Chicago, June 10—Charles W. Fair- banks was presented to the republican convention yesterday by H. Wood of In- candidate for the nomination, and the man who not only would make one of the greatest presidents the country ever has had, but whose election would assure the election of a republican majority to both branches of congress. Mr. Wood pointed to the former vice president’s record President Mc fore and during the Spanish war, to national Representative Wm. diana, Indiana Presidential as as as spokesman for nley in the senate be- his part in framing the policy of the nation toward territorial acquisitions and to his championing sound money and a protective tariff as proof that he was fitted by ability and experience to | guide the destinies of the nation dur- ing the trying times ahead. He de- glared that Mr. Fairbanks, who had marched from a Ohio log cabin to a senatorship and to the vice presidency of the United States, was in the zenith of his intellectual powe: Referring to the split in the party four years ago, he said Indian son spoke whenever called upon during the embittered campaign that followed, always ex- pounded republican doctrine, but at no time imputing’ evil motive to any- =one who ‘“for the time had departed from the house of the fathers.” With Indiana again the great politi- cal battleground of the country, Mr. Wood suggested that wisdom in the choice of a presidential candidate would make certain the election of two senators from that state. “In selecting our candidate,” said Representative Wood at the outset, “we will be actuated by but one prime purpose, and guided by but one su- preme desire, that is, to name a man who will stand four square to all the winds that blow against the honor, the dignity and rightful prosperity of the republic, and who will, at the end of his tenure of office, will leave, as the brightest heritage of his administra- tion his entire country and all its citizens prosperous and at peace with the world, and the republican party, that confided to him its trust, firmly entrenched in the confidence and af- fections of the notion. “In order that this may be, our can- didate should be a man who possesses as nearly as possible all the qualifica- tions of heart and mind that are so e to the fullest discharge of the | of this great office. “He should be a man with a grasp of the necessities of the hour, a states- man in every sense of the word, broad- - SEE WHAT CUTICURA —=3, - DOESFORMY HAIR AND SHIN The Soap keeps my skin fresh and clear | and scalp free from dandruff.

A man who has firm convictions as to right and wrong and who has the courage of his convic- tions and will right a wrong that is done to the humblest of our citizens. A man who acts not from impulse, but who bases his action upon reason, and who, when he makes up his mind, will not change it except when con- vinced that he is in error; and who when so convinced. is broad enough and just enqugh to acknowledge his error and correct it. A man who be- lieves in the fundamental principles of the republican party and that they are essential to good government, and who knows how to apply those princi- ples to secure the best results for all our people. A man who has the con- fidence of the business world and who has gained that confidence by reason of his steadfast adherence to business integrity in the administration of pub- lic office. A man who has an abiding faith in the people, and they an abid- ing faith in him because he has been tried in the crucible of experience and not been found wantin; “Indiana presents to this convention for its consideration a candidate who Do! s all of these qualifications, in the person of Charles Warren Fair- bank Discussing the democratic party briefly the senator said it had ‘“pro- claimed the sacredness of its pledges and then profaned them that it had “espoused the freedom of the seas and wrought only the freedom of the Pan- ama, canal,” and had “profegsed econ- omy and is staggered by its own ex- travagance.” He attacked the ship- ping bill because of its government ownership feature and the attempt of democratic forces to extend independ- ence to the Philippines, ‘'to set adrift an island empire, in violation of our obligations to the world, to the Phil- ippine people and ourselves.” Senator Harding concluded with a laudation of Americanism, which he said ‘begins at home and radiates abroad. The republican conception gives the first thought to a free peo- ple and a fearless people, and bespeaks conditions at home for the highest human attainment. We believe in American markets for American pro- ducts, American wages for American workmen, American opportunity for American genius and industry, and American defense for American soil. American citizenship is the -reflex of American conditions, and ‘we believe our policies make for a fortunate peo- ple for whom moral, material and ed- ucational advancement is the open way. The glory of our progress con- firm: The answered aspirations of a new world civilization, acclaim. We have taken the ideal form of popular government and applied the policies which had led a continent to the altars of liberty and glorified the republic. ‘We have justified pride and fortified hope. We need only to preserve and defend, and go unfalteringly on. Power is the guarantor of p conscience the buckler of everls right. Verily, it is good to be an Am- erican. And we rejoice to be repub- licans.” 1ce LaFollette Nominated. The name of Senator Robert M. JLaFollette, of Wisconsin, was pre- sented to the republican national convention by M. B. Olbrich, of Madi- son, Wisconsin. He spake as follow: “For the third cansecutive time Wisconsin presents to the Republi- cans of the nation opportunity for | party salvation. Twice before through the Tejection af her message disaster came. Today she points once more the way to victory and bonor. She presents again the can- didate whose speech and action best interpret and express the haur’s spirit and its needs. “War is the world’s most obvious reality today. Across the eastern ocean the genius of militarism in the ghastly humor of the mad keeper of a mad-house has lacked the nations of Europe hand in hand and set them dancing the Masque of the Red Death round the funeral pyre of civilization. The nation’: daily thought is colored by reflection fram the fiery glow that inflames the eastern horizon. “To some, old values, viewed in that perspective of bloed and flame have lost proportion.

They upbraid us as unready, taunt us with potential treason to a trustee- ship of priceless consecration. With superb and superlative disregard of fact, they picture a naked America with a sceptre of straw confronting a world in arms. Interest lends a villing color to belief, and the lavish billion already poured out for na- tional defense becomes but a drop in the ocean of their demand. No nation, they assert, may will its own life or destiny. The intervening seas no longer mark a barrier, but afford a sure and fleet facility of acce: ves to a reasoning that bastardizes legic and gives the lie to the experi- ence of the centuries, they assert that preparation ta kill is killing's sure and sole preventative; that poten- tially the only fixed and final arbiter cf international conduct is ever ag- gregate assassination—merely murder muitiplied. No avenue of assault vpon the public judgment, but speeds ite hurried courier of panic. Though the frenzy blood-lust and greed, tride the whirlwind of unreason, shrill their selfish message in the nation’s ear, American common sense, like a very pyramid in the swirling sandstorm, is still unshaken. “Much talk of guns and drums may disturb, it may confuse, it may con- trol the judgsment of this hour, but it will not control, it will not stam- pede the judgment of the American 1-eople, “the ninety-nine per cent.” vhose bodies must receive the bullets £nd who with their children and their children’s children must pay d die.

Not in a spirit of cowardice: not in a spirit of fear; not in a spirit of blind indeffer- ence to the lesson of the conflict; but with clear-visioned comprehension of the consequences their . choice is made. “Out of earth’s dawn, they see the nations in long procession come, each perversion in turn to find the hemlock of ex- ction in the lethal draught noW rressed upon America with frenzied ‘half world"” zeal. With the spectacle of a con- tinent a suicide before their eyes, they cannot he convinced that =aiva- tion lies in stupid imitatian of the cencerted folly that has laid “the one in ashes at their feet. They read the European “Scroll of Torment” to no such lame and impo- tent conclusion, “With soul and heart the exquisite rhythm of there comes to them the pathos of Furope’s penitential cry that not all the tumult of brutal shout and brawl the medieval bluster; ner the thunder of invective's cheap artillery can stifle, or suppress. For there not a war-made grave that scars a Furopean hillside, but makes 1t mute appeal. The dry-eved agony of womanhood that ever pays the last sore tribute of privation pleads in piteous besceching prayer. The moaning shriek that tells of the col- lapse of reason’s tottering throne breathes forth in undertone a sad solemnity of admonition. Aye! in the cemposite cry from that,Gethsemane that signalizes anguish’s infinitude, arning dominates despair, and ad- res America to adhere to her Americanism. “The issue is indeed Americanism —and our candidate the embodiment of Americanism—that distinctive Americanism that solved the problem of armament a century ago. There to the north where lies a tho miiles of shore with not a Dattleship, and three thousand miles of frontier without a fort; a line of national boundary that cleaves a con- tinent, and yet with all the v varied problems of divided sovereign- ty, never the shack of conflict; never 2 hand to sword hilt: and far toward the Southern Cross where the sure- footed statesmanship of Chile and the Argentines has borne aloft the figure of the eternal and ineffable Chr and placed it in everlasting effis amid the summits of the Andes ‘in token of perpetual peace; these are the concerted jdeals distinctly Ameri- which the Western Hemisphere as its contribution to allay the agony that grips the parent conti- nent. These two single and signifi- cunt facts portend more for the wel- fare of the world than all the din of Lattles, lost or won. Armed with this decisive demonstration of the po. bility of peace without armament— kaving brought solution to the ‘blood-rusted’ riddle of the ages, America spurns the caunsel that bids er fling away achievement and seeks like some vain-glorious Hercules to rear a fondling from the spawn of at same monster whose and compulsive cail even now breaks the back and crushes out the heart and hope of all our kin across the sez “She calls V Vs pilat who will not bid wel] to all her ancient lundmarks, set her prow upon a chartless course without a compass and place the tiller forever in su picion’s hands; who will not join in the competitive debasement of the currency of international confidence: who rejects the theorem that burglary is’ the fi standard and exemplar of iternational morals; who will not sec set the weary feet of labor on the rungs of that unending treadmill that grinds for her not bread, nor glory, but only a dreary grist of nameless graves, twisted and tortured lives, blighted and broken hearts, and in the end the dull and futile dust of race degeneracy. “But he is no mere attuned to humanity, offer cons of apostle negation, the candidate wham we i New Haven ' DAITRY If You Demand Particularly Good .Ice " Cream, Look Particularly For Delicious gewflavenl)airy The Cream of All Ice Creams- You'll find that the very best fountains, the very best stores boast that they sell it.

He sees in war the antithesis of progress —the very inmost sanctuary and citadel of privilege, the throne of the monstrous incarnation of man’'s in- humanity to man; the shattering of whase columns would mark the first great stride toward the building of the progressive empire of the world. Others have sensed this thought in part; others have spoken little sec- tions of the truth; but to him there slands revealed a fixed, unchanging moral law whose application is the same from parish to principality and world domain. The current of his progressivism has never known| rotiring ebb, but with expanded opportunity has ta ‘increasing purpose’ grown up through coun- {iry, state, and nation in a ‘diapa- scn breaking full’ in warld morality Compact of poise, and power and pur- pose, he would mobilize the moral cnergy of the world, summoning the reutral nations in solid phalanx, and ac the spokesman of a billion pro- testing, sympathizing souls, he would 2s ‘with a monarch's voice’ recall ‘the bloody dogs of and bid this senseless canflict cease; he would subject the contending nationalities to the steady pressure of a world opinion ‘insistent and persistent’ as ‘the voice of an offended God' until there came the peace of Lincoln's fond hope and fervent prayer that cndures not for a day, nor a century, but for all time, ‘when nations shall not lift sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.’ “Gentlemen, Wisconsin gives you the name of her loved and trusted leader,—brave, true-hearted, cour- teous, simple, gentleman; regenera- tor of a proud and prosperous com- rionwealth; first architect of the su- perb and splendid structure that goes ever forward to completion, a re- PORCH SHADES deemed An}\e_rica. anfl t(dea.\ her t{'uest i PORCH RUGS Hoberi ot Lt PORCH CUSHIONS Sherman Nominated.
