j ; President Taft Drives Truth Home in Speech Accepting Nom- ination For the Presidency—Other Parties Offer No Definite Policy to Remedy Present Conditions But Seek Support Through a Promise of Change For the Better. \\’a‘shiwtou- A Taft's formal the nomination of the Chicago conven- of profound gratitude at the victory for the right won at Chicago. By that victory the republican party was saved for future usefulness.” Demagogues Inflamil Publio Mind. After reviewing the legislative ei- actments of the republican party, the president launched into a bitter attack upon “those responsifBle for the popular unrest” of the presant day. “Started by sensational journalism and unjust and unprincipled muckrak- ing,” he said, “demagogues have seized the opportunity to inflame the public mind that they might turn peculiar conditions to their own advantage.” 'In the formation of new parties, the pres- ident said, these men have promised the satisfaction of unrest by the appli- cation of a panacea. It Means Socialism. “The ultimate anolysis,” I fear, “the equal opportunity which those seek ‘who proclaim the so-called social jus- tice, involves a forced division of property and that means sociallsm. I venture to say there is no national ad- ministration in which more real steps of progress have been taken then in the present one. But as for the millen- ium, a condition in which the rich are to be made reasopably poor and the poor reasonably rich by law, we are chasing-a phantom; we are holing out to those whose unrestewe fear a prospect and a dream. a viflon of the impossible. Offer No Definite Policy. “T do not say that the two gentle- men who now lead, one the democratic and the other the former repub- cans who have left their party, in their attacks upon existing conditions, and in their attempts to satisfy the popular unrest by promises of reme- dies are comsciously embracing social- ism. The truth is that they do not offer any definite legislation or policy by’ which the happy conditions they promise are to be brought about, but if their promises mean anything they lead directly toward the appropriation of what belongs to ome man to an- ot | other. “The truth {is, my friends, both those who have left the republican party under the inspiration of thei: present leader, and our old opponents, the democrats, under their candidate, are going in a direction they do not definitely know, toward an end they cannot definitely describe, with but one chief and clear object, and that is of acquiring power for their party by popular support through the promise of a change for the better, People Lax in Poiitical Duties. “These gentlemen propose to reform the government, whose present defects, if any. are due to the failure of the people to devote as much time as is necessary to their political dutles, by requiring a political activity by the people three times that which thus far the people have been willlng to as- sume, “But dfter we have changed all the governmental machinery so as to per- mit instantaneous expression of the people in constitutional amendments, in statutes an§ in recall of public agents, what Ly Favor Gragtest Good to Greatest Num- ber. The president discussed at some length the recall of judges and judi- cfal decisions and the proposals to for- bid the use of injunctions or protect property against a secondary boycott and the use of furies in contempt pro- ceedings brought to enforce decrees or orders. The recall of decisions he la- beled the “grotesque proposition by the leader of former republicans who have left their perty.” “The republican party,” concluded the prestdent, “stands for none of these innovations. It refuses to make changes simply for the purpose of making a change and cultivating Pop- ular hope that in the,change’ some- thing beneficial, undefined, will take Place. We favor the greatest good to the greatest number, We believe that We have made progress from the be- ginning to now and that the progress- :: &u cont&nuebllnto the far future; that S reasonable progress that experi- ust loves to be cut and | ence has shown to be really maeluxipand ; | belpful, and from which there is no re- action to something worse. It is said that this is not an issue In the cam- Daign. It seems to me it is the su- preme issue.” ROOT’'S SPEECH. Taft’s Title to Nomination as Clear as Any Candidate's. “Your title to the nomination iz as clear and unimpeachable as the title of any candidate since political con- ventions began.” That was the key- note of Senator Hlihu Root's address to President Taft. “For the second time in the history of the republican party, a part of the delegates have refused to be bound by the action of the convention. Now, as on the former occasion, the irreconcil- able minority declares its intention to support efther your democratic op- Ponen:, or a thirq candidate. The reason assigned for this course is dis- satisfaction with the declsion of cer- tain contests in the making up of the temporary .roll of the convention. Those contests were decided by the tribunal upon which the Jaw that has governed the republican party for more than forty years imposed the duty of deciding such contests. “So long as those decisions were made honestly and in/good faith, all persons weras bound té accept them as conclusive in the making up of the temporary roll of the convention, and neither in the facts and arguments proddced before the natiomal commit- tee, the committee on credentials, and the convention itself, nor otherwise, does their appear just ground for im- peacaing the homesty and good faith of the committee’s decision. Both the making up of the temporary roll, and the rights accorded to the persons up- on that roll, whose seats wers con- tested, were in accordance with the long established and unquestioned rules of law governing the party and founded upon justice and common- sense. Your title to the nomination is as clear and unimpeachable as the title of any candidate of any party since ‘political conventions began.
