In seven Btulibornly contested presidential campaigns, sons; of her acred soil have led the embattled Republican hosts to victory.

Hut that of which we are orouder still Is her stalwart citizen ship tlie mightiest bulwark of the Republic In every commonwealth uade up of America s free yeomen, jver ready to respond to the tocsin ot .ilarm in days of peril, or to crush corruption whenever it raises itn me nacing head.

But transcendent -ajiove an is ine tact that Ohio is on of a matchless union of states linked to- zether In everlast ng bonds of nmltv and constituting an empire wonder ful in power aim almost Immeasur able in extent. The most perplexing nitiKitlntiu r today arise from the bountiful veiopment or our material wealth. Monopoly, dishonesty and fraud have assumed a prominence which calls tor tile earnest attention niwi' con demnallon of every man who truly loves the Republic. naillM HII I H e.M- BI1S'S RtlQ in the work for restoring old Ideals of n"u r.u..iii., wttii hi lor higher standards of civic duty, one man has stood pre-eminent, and that corruption In every form he has set his face with grim determination. prompt and fearless in action and with that Intelligent leadership which has assured the establishment of a better era In which the strong and the weak alike must submit themselves to the Impartial execu tion of the law. There was need of a strong, courageous Bnlrit to re strain those destructive forcen which have asserted themselves in this time or growth and plenty. The story of nis achievements will mnke up one of the brightest nnges in the historv nf this or any age and will prove that louay, as in nny critical hour of so cial unrest or of danger, the man will appear who can grapple with the emergency. Who so lit to take up the tasks wnicn tins wondrous generation de mantis should be wlselv and Ininnr. tially performed as his great War secretary 7 Sinev 'he day when.

Ity should bo decked alone hv the jewels ot me fortunate and the opu lent, but have Insisted that it should still uiore abound in trophies which commeniornto the enforcement of even-handed justice and the mainten ance of that equal opportunity which spreads hope and blessing even to tne nuniuiest Home. Since the day when, less than thii-tv von Mr. Taft denounced, with burning words, a member of his profession who had been guilty of flagrantly vi llous practices and had demoralized the community, he has ever been as sociated with the cause of true r form with that reform which will not content Itself with academic dissertation or hollow words. He has been Imbued with the spirit of action. His advocacy of sounder conditions has never arisen from a desire for the exploitation of himself. It has alwayB been based upon un swerving integrity and the courage io speiia me irutn, as he undeistunds it. 011 all occasions, no-matter how In fluential or powerful the evils w-hli-h he may attack. .No one has ever yet assumed the presidential chair who had received a more Ideal preparation for the duties if that great ollice.

To him belongs the extremely valu able faculty of eliminating the non essential from complicated problems and going directly to their substance. His capacity for work Is enormous, yet quite as helpful Is Ills equable temperament, which will not allow 'he annoyances of life to distract or hamper him. Although of an ag gressive personality, he posses an In finite good nature, a charm of man ner and a poise which have made him a mo(lVl for exnlted station.
