Office: One door south of Court House or at Cigar 8tore opposite Bank
of Oregon City,
The followln la the addras of ex-
Oovfinnr Krunk fl. Wlaolt. of New Tork,
In nominating Pwld'-nt RKevelt at the
rpnl Iti-publlnan national convention:
Mr. Prelrtnnt nnd Ontl-men of the
Convention: We nre hore to Inaugurate
a campaign whloh K'tni already to be
nearly dosed. 80 widely have the people
sowwd and watched and tended, there
seems little now to do but to measure up
the grain. They are ranging themselves,
not for battl. bit for harvest. In one
column reaching from the Maine woods
to the Pug-t sound are those people and
thou 2'ates which have stood so long to
gether that when groat emergencies arle
the nation turns Instinctively to them. In
tha column, vant and solid, Is a majority
so overwhelming that the scattered
squads In opposition can hardly raise
another army. The enemy have neither
guns nor ammunition, and tf they had
they would se them on each other. Des
titute of the weapons of effective war
fare, the only evidence of approaching
battle Is In the tone and number of their
bulletins. There Is dlacord among the
generals; dlacord among the aoldlers
Each would flsht In his own way. but be
fore aexaultlng his Republican adversar
ies he would ftret deetroy hui own com
rades In th adjoining tents. Each be
lieves the weapon choeen by the other
are not only wicked, but fatal to the
holder. That Is true. This Is the only
war of modern tlmea where the boom
erang has ten substituted for the gun.
Whatever fatalltlea may occur, however.
among the discordant hosts now moving
on Bt. I.ouls, no harm will come this fall
to the American people. There will be
no opposition sufficient to raise a con
fllcl. There will be hardly enough for
competition. There are no Democratic
llnns for the conduct of the fall cam
paign. ' Their seal la chiefly centered tn
dlscuaslon as to what Thomas Jefferson
would do if be were living. He Is not
living, and but few of his descendants
are among the Democratic remnants of
today. Whatever of piltriotiem or wis
dom emanated from that distinguished
man is now represented ln this conven
tion. It Is a sad day for any party when Us
only means of solving living liwuee Is by
guessing at the poeaible attitude of a
statesman who Is dead. This condition
leaves that party always a beginner and
makes every question new. The Demo
cratic party has seldom tried a problem I
on Its own account and when It has Its
blunders have been Its only monuments:
Its courage Is remembered only in regret.
As long as these things are recalled
that party may serve as ballast, but It
will never steer the ship.
When all the people have forgotten will
dawn a golden era for this new Demo
cracy. But the country Is not ready yet
to place a party in the lead whose most
expressive motto Is the cheerless word, !
"forget." That motto may express con
trition, but It does not Inspire hope. Nei
ther confidence nor enthusiasm will ever
be n roused by any party which enters
each campaign uttering the language of
the mourner.
There Is one fundamental plank, how
ever oa which the two great parties are
In full agreement. Both believe In the
equality ot men. The difference Is that
the Democratic party would make every
man as low as the poorest, while the Re
publican party would make every man as
high as the beat. But the Democratic
course will provoke no outside Interfer
ence Just now, for the Republican motto
Is that ot the great commander, "never
Interrupt the enemy while he la making a
mistake."
In politics, as In other fields, the most
Impressive arguments spring from con
trast. Never has there been a more strik
ing example of unity than is now afford
ed by this assemblage. You are gathered
here not as factions torn by discordant
views, but moved by one desire and In
tent; you have come as the chosen rep
resentatives of the most enlightened
party ln the world. You meet not as
strangers, for no men are strangers who
hold the same beliefs and espouse the
sama cause. You may separate two
bodies of water for a thousand years,
but when once the barrier Is removed
they mingle Instantly and are one. The
same traditions inspire and the same pur
poses actuate us all. Never tn our lives
did these purposes Stand with deeper
root than now. At least two generations
have passed away since the origin of that
great movement from which sprang the
spirit which has been the leading Impulse
ln American politics for half a century.
In that movement, which was both a
creation and an example were those
great characters which endowed the Ke
publican party at its birth with the at
tributes of justice, equality and progress.
which have held It to this hour ln line
with the highest sentiments of mankind.
From these men we have inherited the
desire, and to their memory we owe the
resolution, that those great schemes of
government and humanity, inspired by
their patriotism, and established by their
blend, shall remain as the fixed and per'
manent emblem of their labors, and the
abiding signal of the liberty and progress
of the race.
Republicans Never Fsll In Crises.
There are many new namee In these
days, but the Republican party needs no
new title. It stands now where It stood
at the beginning. Memory alone la need
ed to tell the source from which the In
SDlratlons of the country flow. A drowsy
memory would be aa guilty now aa a
sleeping watchman when the enemy la
astir. The name ot the Republican party
stands over every door where a righteous
cause was born. Its members have gath
ered around every movement, no matter
how weak. If Inspired by high resolve.
Its flag for more than fifty years has been
tha sign of hope on every spot where lib
erty was the word. That party needs no
new name or platform to designate Its j
equipped, militant and In motion. The
problems f every an that ae muC j
solve. Great causes Impose great de- I
niHrids. but never In any enterprise have
the American people failed, and never
In any crisis has the Republican party
failed to exprens the conscience and In
telligence of that people.
The public mind Is awake both to its
opportunities and It d.uigers. Nowhere
in the world. In any era. did cltlsenslhp
mean more than It means today In Amer
ica. Men of courage and aturdy character
are ranging themselves together with a
unanimity seldom seen. There is no ex
cuse for groping In the dark, for the light
is plain to him who will but raise his
eyes The American people believe In a
man or party that has convictions and
knows why. They believe that what ex
perience has proved it Is Idle to resist.
A wise man la any fool about to die.
But there Is a wisdom which, with good
fortune, may guide the living and the
strong. That wisdom springs from rea
son, observation and experience. Guided
by these this thing Is plain, and young
men may rely upon It that the history
and purposes I have described, rising
even to the essence and aspirations of
patriotism, find tfielr best concrete ex
ample In the career and doctrines of the
Republican party.
But not alone upon the principles of
that party are Its members ln accord.
With the same devotion which has
marked their adherence to those princi
ples, magnificent and enduring as they
are. they have already singled out the
man to bear their standard and to lead
the way. No higher badge was ever yet
conferred. But. great as the honor Is,
the circumstances which surround It
make the honor even more profound.
You have come from every state and ter
ritory ln this vast domain. The country
and the town have vied with each other
In sending here their contributions to
this splendid throng. Every highway tn
the land Is leading here and crowded with
the members of that great party which
sees In this splendid city the symbol of
its rise and power. Within this unex
ampled multitude is every rank and con
dition of free men, every creed and occu
pation. But today a common purpose and
desire have engaged us all, and from ev
ery nook and corner of the country rises
but a single choice to fill the most ex
alted office In the world.
Roosevelt In Peace snd War.
He Is no stranger waiting In the shale.
to be called suddenly into public light.
The American people have seen him for
many years, and always where the fight
was the thickest and the greatest need
was felt. He has been alike conspicuous
In the pursuits of peace and to the ardu
ous stress of war. No man now living
will forget the spring of 'SS. when the
American mind was so Inflamed and
American patriotism so aroused! when
among all the eager citlxene surging to
the front as soldiers, the man whom this
convention has already In Its heart was
among the first to hear the cau and an
swer to his name. Preferring peace, but
not afraid of war;; faithful to every pri
vate obligation, yet first to volunteer at
the sign of national peril; a leader in civil
life, and yet so quick to comprehend the
arts of war that he grew almost ln a
day to meet the high exactions of com
mand. There Is nothing which so testa
a man as a great and unexpected danger.
He may pass his life among ordinary
scenes, and what he Is or does but few
will ever know. But when the crash
comes or the flamee break out, a mo
ment's time will single out the hero in
the crowd. A flash of lightning ln uie
night will reveal what years of daylight
have not discovered to the eye. And so
the flash of the 8panlsh war revealed that
lofty courage and devotion which the
American heart so loves, and which you
have met again to decorate and recog
nise. His qualities do not need to be
retold, for no man in that exalted place
since Lincoln has been better known ln
every household tn the land. He Is not
conservative. If conservatism means wait
ing till It Is too late. He Is not wise.
If wisdom Is to count a thing a hundred
times when once will do. There Is no re
gret so keen In man or country as that
which follows an opportunity unembraced.
Fortune soars with high and rapid wing,
and whoever brings It down must shoot
with speed and accuracy. Only the man
with steady eye and nerve, and tne cour
age to pull the trigger, brings the largest
opportunities to the ground. He does not
alwavs listen while all the sages speaa.
but every day at nightfall beholds some
record which. If not complete, has been
at least pursued with conscience and in
trepid resolution.
One Msn Only Roosevelt.
He Is no slender flower swaying In the
wind, but that heroic fibre which Is best
nurtured by the mountains and the snow.
He spends little time In review, for that,
he knows can be done by the scnoois.
A statesman grappling with the living
problems of the hour, ha gropes but little
In the past He believes that ln shaping
the destinies of this great republic, hope
Is a higher Impulse than regret He be
Ueves that preparation for future triumph
is a more Important, duty than an inven
tory of past mistakes. A profound stu
dent of history, he la today the greatest
history maker In the world. With the In
stincts of the scholar, be Is yet forced
from the scholar's pursuits by those su
perb qualities which fit him to the last
degree for those great world currents now
rushing past with larger volume and more

8ynopais of Week's Lectures snd
Leading Events.
Warm. dllgtful, welcome sunshine on
Monday morning succeeded the cloudy,
gloomy and disagreeable weather of last
week and the attendance at the Chau
tauqua meeting has Increased. In tact,
the unseasonable weather of last week
did not tend to materially reduce the at
tendance at any time, a fact that war
rants the Chautauqua management la
feeling proud ot the worth of the pro- .
gram that Is offered this year.
Last Thursday night Captain Richmond
Pearson Hobson gave a most patriotic
lecture on "America's Mighty Mission."
Universal brotherhood, concluded the
Merrimac hero, la possible through tha
agency of America the Incarnation of
mercy, and civil and religious liberty.
But to accomplish such a condition, be
argued it is necessary for an Increased
navy. Friday afternoon Captain Hobsoo
delivered his second and concluding lec
ture on "America, Mistress of the Seaa."
In the evening Dr. McClary gave his en
tertaining lecture on "The Mission of
Mirth." While the speaker had delivered
the same lecture at three preceding Chau
tauqua assemblies here, he was none the
less Interesting this year.
Saturday, Women's Day, presented aa
interesting program of exercises. In the
afternoon. Mrs. Marian K White, editor
of the Fine Arts Journal, of Chicago, lee-
lured on "American Art and Artists at
Home and Abroad." Mrs. White's lec
ture was preceded by an introductory ad
dress by Mrs. Eva Emery Dye. of this
city. In the evening, the beautiful eaa
tata, "Queen Esther." was presented tn
costume under the direction of Prof. li.
E. Robinson. It was a musical treat of
great worth and the Immense auditorium
was thronged by an interested audience.
The singers came largely from Portland,
and Included many of the leading solo
ists ln this section of the state.
Dr. Geo. W. White, of San Francisco,
preached Sunday afternoon. There was
Sunday school In the morning and a
sacred concert by the Chemawa Indian
band at 4 o'clock. In the evening, Miss.
Jennie F. W. Johnson, Cbatauqua soloist
of Chicago, sang a solo, preceding sa able
sermon on "The Evolution of the Spir
itual Life" by Dr. McClary. who argued
that the world needs more Christianity
and leas Churchianity. Baptism or con
firmation, said the speaker, do not con
stitute ln themselves a sufficient mean
of developing the spiritual life; In fact.
he sa. d, there e ao'hlna that will do sure
to make a Christian than a genuine old
fashioned conversion.
Monday evening Dr. White gave a lec
ture on Victor Hugo. Tuesday afternooa
Mr. Herbert Bashford. "the poet of Cali
fornia," lectured on "The Literature of
the West." "Sunshine in Labor" was the
subject of the concluding lecture of Dr.
Thos. McClary Tuesday night This pop
ular Chautauqua lecturer waa Just aa
much appreciated on the final night as
he was ln making his Initial lecture. The
features of Wednesday's prpgram were a
lecture by Mrs. Marian A. White on "Out
Patriot Painters of the West." In the
evening more sunshine was scattered by
Lou J. Beauchamp, the humorist who
lectured on the subject "Take the Sunny
Side." This was Mr. Beauchamp' s ini
tial appearance at the Gladstone Chau
tauqua, but as a fun producer be la all
that was represented to the Chautauqua
management - Yesterday afternoon Mr.
Beauchamp lectured on "The .Day of the
Young Man." In the evening Mrs. Har
riet Colburn Saunderson, assisted by local
talent gave a splendid musical and elo
cutionary entertainment
Some of the best features of the Chau
tauqua this year have been reserved for
the concluding days of the session. An
especially interesting program has been '
arranged for today Pioneer Day. At 1
o'clock there will be music, vocal and in
strumental, and other exercises, includ
ing an address by Hon. J. F. Caples, of
Portland. In the evening Dr. Newell
Dwlght Hillls, of Brooklyn, will deliver a
lecture on "The Tragedy of the Ten
Talent Man," and on the following after
noon will lecture on "John Ruslcln's Mes
sage to tha Twentieth Century." Dr.
Hillls, who la one of the foremost pulpit
orators In the country, will preach two
sermons on Sunday. The concluding mus
ical entertainment will be given Saturday
evening, when a large chorus under the
direction of Prof. M. E. Robinson will
present the sacred cantata, "Belshassar."
