Both are | the BEARDSLEY NAMED AGAINST HOLGOMB (Continued From First Page.) This was done amid cheers, O. S. of Danbury alone rising in cpposition. Judge Lockwood, Gover- nor Baldwin and Augustine Lonergan of Hartford were sent out to find Mr. Cummings. When nominations for governor were called for Charles 8. Canfield of Sridgeport went on the platform and presented the name of Morris DB. Beardsley of Bridgeport. The nomina- tor first praised the convention fcr honoring that “peerless party leader in the state—one who had fought the fight and kept the faith these many years—Homes S. Cummings for sena- tor.” For first place on the ticket M. Canfleld said, he for the Bridgeport delegation offered the name of one whose career had been written bright on the pages of Bridgeport political history, who had been draft- ed into service, and whose name would draw to the ticket the united support of the democracy—Judge Morris B. Beardsley. E. P. O'Meara seconded the name for New Haven County, and John H. Candee of Easton for Fairfield County. Someone Takes Clergyman’s Hat. Rev. E. Henry Byram of Ridgefield in a speech of some length reviewed party principles, praised President Wilson, his policies and achievements and after endorsing Mr. Beardsley made the delegates roar with laughter by stating that some one had substi- tuted their derby hat for his own. “If any one stole now is the time to repent,” he declared amid laughter. Mr. Dunn seconded the name for eastern Connecticut and the nomina- tion was by acclamation. A delegate protested but Chairman Reilly said he did not believe there was objection and recognized none. Messrs. Canfleld of Bridgeport, Chapin of New Hartford "and Keating of New Haven were sent out to bring in Judge Beardsley. W. E. Thoms presented the names of Francis P. Guilfoyle of Waterbury for lieutenant governor referring to him as one of Waterbury’'s best citi- zens and foremost democrats. Tha nomination was by acclamation with a rising vote moved by Mr. Dunn. Messrs. Thoms Palmer of Oxford and C. J. Dillon of Hartford went out to find Mr. Guilfoyle. Objects to Progressive. C. M. Gallup of West Hartford pre- sented the name of Frederick E. Duffy, a progressive of his town, for secretary of state. The seconding speech was by Arthur J. Birdseye of Farmington, a former republitan, then a progressive and at present treasurer of the progressive state central committee, according to statements made yesterday. Mr. Birdseye held a proxy. P. J. Danahy of Willimantic pro- tested that this was a democratic convention and there was no need of bringing in an outsider, for a place on the ticket. The delegates grew restless and Chairman Reilly had to use his gavel. When Danahy sat down the chairman said, “You have heard the seconding speech by the delegate from Willlmantic,” (cheers and laughter.) ‘When M. D. O’Connor of Enfleld moved to nominate by a rising vote, Chairman Reilly said: “Let us have a good old-fashioned democratic yell, as evidence of ac- clamation so we can wake up some- thing.” Mr. Duffy’s name went through with a shout. T. J. Spellacy offered the name of George Ulrich of Hartford for treas- urer, seconded by G. P. Ingersoll of Ridgefield. The nomination was made with another vigorous yell. In accepting his nomination Cummings spoke as follows: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention: “We have come to a critical period in the progress of our country and of world. It does not require the gift of prophecy to know how vitally significant the present era will be in the history of the human race. The foundations of the governments of practically all the great civilized na- tions of the world have been shaken. A conflict of arms, vast, disastrous, overwhelming—has afflicted human- ity. Property values, beyond estima- tion, have been destrcyed, millions of lives have been sacrificed, and the smoke that still hangs over the bat- tlefields of Europe is go heavy that no man can yet discern the vision of Stevens, Mr. | the day that is to be. “American is the only great nation of the world that is now at peace. ous. The toilers of our shops and fields and counting houses may go in peace and comfort to their various tasks with no fear that they may be summoned to the lines of battle and with no sudden clutch at the heart which comes from the realization that beloved ones are in deadly peril. And vet, my friends, how short are our memories! Only a few months ago the fires of the international conflict crept close to our door. There have been periods within the last year when the slightest misstep, the smallest mis- calculation, the least act of imprud- ence upon the part of our chief execu- tive, would have plunged our country into a great and devastating war. These perils we have escaped. There are certain uneasy and Impulsive statesmen who regret that our coun- try has not played a more ‘heroic’ role, and they experience a deep sense of shame and humiliation at what they profess to regard as our ‘international disgrace.’ f to uphold, in the time of war, the standards of peace is vacillation; if amid a troubled and perplexed and distraught world, to pick up and re- store the broken fragments of inter- national law, is to play a shameful part in history; if, when all the world ifficult of diagnosis and to make cer- L Dr. Thompson was summoned. is aflame with war, to keep a hundred million people free from its devastat- Our people are aboundingly prosper- | ng scourge, is a policy of inaptitude, then God prosper it and teach it to the monarchs of the old world. Foremost Place for Wilson, “No matter what the verdict of to- day may be, history, in recording the deeds of the servants of peace and humanity, will grant a foremost place to Woodrow Wilson. Upon his back have been huddled more burdens than have ever before been placed on the shoulders of mortal man. He came to his high office charged with the mission of carrying forward a pro- gram of domestic progr: The at- mosphere of public affairs had grown fetid with corruption. Privilege had taken possession of every branch of the public service. The leaders of the republican party, who were re- sponsible for this condition, were de- nounced by no one more vigorously than by people of their ofwn house- hold. The clutch that privilege had obtained ,upon the 'mepyblican party made it inpossible Ibt tHat party to carry forward any work of reform. This was the condition which existed in our country when the democratic party was entrusted with power. ‘‘The accomplishmentg in the way of domestic reform achieved under the leadership of President Wilson con- stitute a miracle of legislative prog- ress. “The Payne-Aldrich tariff, which had been a hiding place of privilege, was revised; the elements of graft were eliminated and a tariff commis- sion was provided, so that future re- visions might be conducted upon a business basis, without reference to political or partisan necessities. An income tax was passed, thereby re- lieving our law of the reproach of being unjustly burdensome to the poor. Pan-Americanism was encour- aged and expanded; the great reaches of Alaska were opened up to com- merce and development; dollar diplo- macy was destroyed; the lobby was driven from the capitol; a Workmen'’s Compensation Act was adopted; a child labor law was enacted; the Fed- eral Trade Commission was created; the Clayton Act was adopted; the Smith-Lever Bill for improvement of farm conditions was passed; the Par- cel Post and the Rural Free Delivery were developed; a Corrupt Practice Act was adopted; a Good Roads Bill and a Rural Credit Act were passed; appropriations for the Army and Navy were provided more munificent than ever before known in a like period in our country or in any other; the Vreeland-Aldrich Currency Act was make workable by proper amend- ments, and the Federal Reserve Sys- tem established. “Had any one, three years, had the temerity to predict so complete and successful a record of legislative re- form, he would have been regarded as an irresponsible visionary. And yet these things are accomplished facts, and, to the forward-looking cit- izen, plead eloquently for the demo- cratic cause. Which Act Would Hughes Repeal? “Which of the acts mentioned would Mr. Hughes repeal if he could ? Which of the policies adopted would he reverse? progressed far into the campaign and yvet no one can answer that simple question. The republican candidate has not seen fit to answer it. The acts are so mani- festly in the interest of the. public that he has neither the courage to denounce them nor the candor to ad- mit their worth. But there was yet another task that events had set for the president. “When it seemed. that the limit of human endurance had been reached, and after every conceivable interna- tional and domestic problem had been presented to the administration and successfully solved, there arose at the last moment, on the very eve of the adjournment of congress, a new ques- tion, a solution of which had to be found or industrial and commerciel America would have received a shock which would have been as devastating and disastrous as the losses of a great war. “This problem also the president settled. His complete program was not adopted, but enough of it was made effective to end the danger of a nation-wide strike. The rest of it will be enacted when congress re- convenes, and, if the leadership of the president is followed, there will be no recurrence of so threatening a question again. Moreover, it must not be forgotten that the act of con- gress, which settled the strike, was supported, not only by the democratic members of the house, but when the vote was taken it was found that a large majority of the republican mem- bers had also voted for it. It was a measure designed to safeguard Amer- ican business while giving an oppor- tunity for investigation and well oon- sidered legislation of a preventive character. "I assert that no other administra- tion has been more intelligently con- cerned for the prosperity of honest business and legitimate enterprise. “The candid man, whose eyes have not been blinded by partisanship, will freely admit this. Forward-looking business men, like Thomas A. Edi- son and Henry Ford, realize it, appre- ciate it, and applaud it, Service to Business. “Take for example the service ren- dered to business by the revision of our finances, “The Currency law, which had been in force in this country up to the tlme of the passage of the Fed- eral Reserve Act, was a prolific breed- er of panics. So unstable was our system as built up by the great finan- ciers of th® republican party (who know all about the business and how to conduct it), that the slightest finan- cial disturbance was apt to precipi- tate disaster. “In 1873, in the midst of great prosperity, a panic followed the fail- ure of Jay Cooke & company. “In 1884, it was found that the president of the Second National bank of New York had stolen three million dollars in securities. This brought on a run on the banks in New York, the fallure of Grant & Ward, and a na- tion-wide panic. “In 1893, Babring Brothers of Fng- We have land failed. At about the same time the Philadelphia & Reading com- panies attempted to corner certain ore lands and went into insolvency. A nation-wide panic followed. “In 1907, Heinze, president of the Mercantile National bank, used that institution in copper speculations; other banks became involved, includ- ing the Knickerbocker Trust company, and within a few days nearly every national bank in America and many of the state Banks and Trust com- panies suspended payment. Right here in Connecticut wages were paid in token money in the form of time- checks issued at the factories. There were plyity of assets, an abundance of avai'ble business— but industry paused; ‘he wheels paused and Amer- ica found itself in the grip of another unnecessary panic because the money of the country had been impounded and could not flow with the channels of trade. That was the inefficient system of finance which the republi- can parcy had promised for forty vears t. remedy. That was the sy tem which the Federal Reserve Act supplanted. What do you Suppose would have happened in this country when the war broke if the democratic party had not been in power and the old republican system of finance had remained unchanged? “Our friends in the republican party are fond of explaining how thorough- ly they understand business and how safe industry is in their hands. I ask again what would have happened if the republican party had been in power when the war broke and cotton went from fourteen cents a pound to three cents a pound in one day at a total loss to pur people of six hun- dred million dollars? “What would have happened if the republican party had been in power when the war broke and international exchange becdme disarranged and all the European banks suspended pay- ment? “What would have happened if the republican party had been in power when our trade with Germany, in one year, declined from over five hun- dred million dollars to fourteen mil- lion dollars, and in the single month of August, 1914, our trade with Bu- rope fell off seventy-five million dol- lars? “What would have happened if the republican party had been in power when Europe begah dumping securi- ties upon America, which in a period of about twenty-one months, amount- ed to three billion, five hundred million dollars? “What would have happened under the old republican system if, only ten days after the war began, forty-eight millions of gold had been withdrawn from this country by Europe? “What would have happened if all these disasters had come almost sim- ultaneously, and the republican finan- cial system had remained unchanged? “The answer is—PANIC—great, overwhelming, disastrous panic, in- volving losses of untold millions of dollars, the fortunes of the rich, the savings of the poor, sacrificed upon the altar of an archaic and provincial system. fortunately, period, the demo charge of our gover republican party. Our been reformed; the Vreeland Act had been amended; the Federal Reserve Act had been passed, and our finan- clal system withstood the shock like a veritable rock of Gibraltar. “Not only this. but we were able abundantly to care for our domestic needs and lend hundreds of millions of dollars abroad, and had the op- portunity to convert America from a debtor nation into the greatest credi- tor nation of the world. “In the face of such a record, un- disputed and indisputable, how trivial and senseless becomes the pattering refrain that only the republican party understands the business of the nation. “My friends, the business of the nation needs a more comprehensive knowledge than that which is pos- sessed by those provincial and archaic statesmen, who have no vision of the greater America that is to be and know of no remedy for existing evils except to reapply the processes of antiquity. Slandering the President. “We have come upon days when, I suppose, it is our fate to deal with many of the devices of partisanship. during all atie, midst of peace and plenty, and after a record unparalleled, we find president criticised, maligned, dered. All this we must endure with equanimity. We know that after all had been said, no matter what our republican friends may think of the methods adopted by the president, they are bound to applaud the results. No man can quarrel with peace and prosperity. It is idle to criticise the details of the president’s policies, when one is obliged to commend the re- sults. But they tell us that there are some people who are disturbed by the Mexican situation. When affairs were pretty bad upon the border, a certain prominent republican used to encount- er me upon various occasions, de- nounce the president, express his opinion of the people of Mexico, and declare that it was our duty to go in and clean up that country. He ex- pressed these sentiments with great vigor and with seeming earnestness. Finally the ¢ came when border raids created a itical condition, and the president (following, by the way, a precedent established by Mr. Taft) gave an order for the mobilization of the National Guard. Do you not re- member how, all over this country, there was a thrill ike an electric shock? We saw, in miniature, with- out the horrors of bloodshed, some- thing of that which was happening in Europe. “Our boys were called out. Our boys were marching through streets to the sound of the drum and the fife; our boys were going to the camp—to the border—and no one knew how much farther or, indeed, into what dangers. And as I stood watching one of these bands of brave young men, my republican friend, who had been so keen to go into Mexico and clean up the country, touched me on the shoulder and T saw that his face was white, and he said: “My God, we must Ikeep out of this war.” I asked him ‘We have come upon days when, in the | | fortunate enough to he ARITORD iR (12 14116 AsyLum ST. ».,9 HARTFORD. @ Suits For Stout Women a Specialty.

This country was not founded to be built up into a great autocratic military power, preying upon people weaker than ourselves; this country was not founded for the purpose of following the ideals of Europe.

The fathers intended that this should be a land where all men were free and equal before the law; a country, which by its example of successful self-gov- ernment, should lift up the hopes of all humanity everywhere. “And now—one word more!

Noble, who had secured for the clos- ing days of the season the services of William Fleischer, the well known cornet soloist of this city, to dispense concert solos from the portico of one of his cottages on Colonial Boulevard. Strains of sweet music produced by the cornet in the skillful hands of Mr. Fleischer were unexpectedly waft- ed among the cottages, greatly to the surprise and delight of all who were r them Mr, Fleischer's rendition was at its hest and its richness was something long to be remembered. REGARDING MILLARD STREET. The city planning commission held a short meeting last night to consider the proposed extension of Millard street. It was voted to have the mayor name a committee to investi- gate the advisability of purchasing land from Mortimer Rhodes and the Catholic co-operation permitting the extending of the street northward to Newington road. The committee will be named later. TOO LATE FOR CLASSIFICATION, WANTED—By German girl, doing general housework. Box 11, Herald. position Addr 9-20-3dx | Am RICHTER & CO.
