not yet complete. Whenever the coun
try really wanted something besides
talk, he added, it turned to the Demo
cratic party.
The President advocated the estab
lishment of a (Treat Federal employ
ment bureau. He said some means
should be formed for Quickening; and
hapenlng the process of the courts,
and. spoke of the necessity of passing
the Administration conservation bills.
Immediately after bis speech the
President went to the home of Mayor
II. Joseph E. Bell, of Indianapolis, who
was confined to his bed by sickness, ami
later attended a reception given by the
Indiana Democratic Club, which lasted
for an hour and a half. Later he took
a rWe about Indianapolis In the auto
mobile of Thomas Taggart and. at S:45
departed for Washington.
IJfe In Washington Lonely.
"Governor Ralston. ladies and gentle
men You have given me a most royal
welcome, for which I thank you from
the bottom of my heart. It is rather
lonely living in Washington. I have
been confined for two years at hard
labor, and even now I feel that I am
" aimply out on parole. Tou notice that
one of the most distinguished members
of the United States Senate is here to
see that I go back. And yet, with sin
cere apologies to the Senate and House
of Representatives. I want to say that
I draw more inspiration from you than
-They, like myself, are only servants
of the people of the United States. Our
el news consist in your sympathy and
support and our renewal comes from
contact with you and with the strong
movements of public opinion In this
country. That is the reason why I, for
one, would prefer that our thoughts
should not too often cross the ocean,
but sbould center themselves upon the
policies and duties of the United States.
Jf we think of the United States when
the time comes, we shall know how
this country can serve the world. I
will borrow an interesting phrase from
a distinguished gentleman of my ac
quaintance and beg tbat you will keep
jrour moral powder dry.
Hat-las Mild Aboat Jackson.
"But I have come here on Jackson
day. If there are Republicans present
1 hope they feel the compelling in
fluences of such a day. There was
nothing mild about Andrew Jackson;
that is the reason I spoke of the 'com
pelling influences of the day.' Andrew
Jackson was a forthright man who be
lieved everything be did believe in
fighting in earnest. And really, ladies
and gentlemen. In public life that is the
only sort of man worth thinking about
for a moment. t
"If 1 were not ready to fight for
everything I believe in I would think
It my duty to go back and take a back
seat. I like, therefore, to breathe the
air of Jackson day. I like to be re
minded of the old militant hosts of
Democracy, which I believe have come
to life again in our time.
-The United States had almost for
gotten that It must keep its fighting
ardor In behalf of mankind when An
drew Jackson became President: and
you will notice that whenever the
United States forgets its ardor for
mankind, a Democrat Is elected Presi
'.deut The trouble with the Republi
can party Is that it has not had a new
Idea for 3U years.
Searrh Made for Ideas.
i am nnt KDAAkine as a politician
I am Breaking as a historian. I have
I am speaking as a historian. I have
looked for new Ideas in the recoros
and I have not found any proceeding
from the Republican ranks. They have
"had leaders from time to time, who
suggested new ideas, but they never
.. , . . i t
aid anytning ;o carry tuem wuu i
suppose there was no harm in their
. L . 1 .i ...i h n,. nni i nnt fin I
talkintr. Drovlded they rould not do
anything. Therefore, when It was
necesivary to say we have talked about
things long enough which it was nec
essary to do, and the time. had come
to"do them, it was indispensable that a
Democrat should be elected President.
"I would not speak with disrespect
of the Republican party. I always
speak with great respect of the past.
The past was necessary to the pres
ent: and was a sure prediction of the
future. The Republican party is still
a covert refuge for those who are
afraid, for those who want to consult
their grandfathers about everything.
You will notice that most of the ad
vice taken by the Republican party Is
taken from gentlemen old enough to be
grandfathers; and that when they
claim that a reaction has taken place,
they react to the re-election of the Old
est members of their party. They will
not trust the youngsters. They are
afraid the youngsters may have some
thing up their sleeves.
Sarins: Sweet Things Wearisome.
-You will see. therefore, that I have
come to you in the spirit of Jackson
day. I got very tired staying in
Washington and Saving sweet things.
X wanted to coma out and get in con
tact with you once more and.-say what
I really thought.
"My friends, what I particularly want
you to observe is this: That politics in
this country does not depend any longer
upon the regular members of either
party. There are not enough regular
Republicans In this country to take and
hold National power; and I must imme
diately add there are not enough regu
lar Democrats in this country to do it
either. This country Is guided and its
policy is determined by the independent
voter: and I have come to ask you how
we can best prove to the independent
voter that the instrument he needs Is
the Democratic party, and that it would
be hopeless for him to attempt to use
the Republican party. I do not have to
prove it: I admit it.
"What seems to me perfectly evident
is this: That if you made a rough reck
oning you would have to adnrx that
only about one-third of the Republican
party is progressive: and you would
also have to admit that about two
thirds of the Democratic party Is pro
trresslve. Therefore the independent
progressive voters find a great deal
more company in the Democratic ranks
than In the Republican ranks.

not only that It believes in these

not allow any enemy of these things
to break Us ranks. This country is
not going to use any party that can

ocean freight rates have gone up, in
some instances, to 10 times their
ordinary figure, and that the farmers
of the United States, those who raise
grain and those who raise cotton
these things that are absolutely neces
sary to the world, as well as to our
selves cannot .get any profit out of
the great prices that they are willing
to pay for these things on the other

profit is eaten up by the extortionate
rates for ocean carriage? In the midst
of this, the Democrats propose a tem

"The merchants and the farmers of

I got very tired staying, in Washington and saying sweet things.
I wanted to come out and get in contact with you once more and
say what I really thought. -
I respect the conservative temper. I claim to be an animated con
servative myself; because, being a conservative, I understand to mean
a man not only who preserves what is best in the Nation, but who
sees that in order to preserve you dare not stand still, but must
move forward. For the virtue of America is not statical; it is
d nTheDemocratIc party Is not to suppose that it Is done with the
business. The Democratic party is still on trial. ... If any
group of men should dare to break the solidarity of the Democratic
team for any purpose or from anyjnotive, theirs will be a most un
enviable notoriety and a responsibility which will bring deep bitter
ness to them. . . , . , , ,. .
If a man will not play in the team, then he does not belong to the
team. You see, I have spent a large part of my life in college and I
' know what a team means when I see It; and I know what the cap
tain of a team must have if he is going to win. So it is no idle
figure with me. ... . . .
We have cleared the decks.- We have laid the lines now on which
business that was to do the country harm shall be stopped and an
economic control which was intolerable shall be broken up. We have
emancipated America, but America must do something with her
freesometimes. when I look abroad, ray friends, and see the
great mass of struggling humanity on that ' continent, it goes very
much to my heart to see how many men are at a disadvantage and
are without guides and helpers.
I am not one of those who doubt either the industry or the learning
or the integrity of the courts of the United States, but I do know that
they have a very antiquated way of doing business.
Until the end of the Diax regime, 80 per cent of the people of
Mexico never had a "look in" in determining who should be their gov
ernors or what their government should be. It is none of my business,
and it is none of your business how long they take in determining it.
The country is theirs. The government is theirs. The liberty, if they
can get it and God speed them in getting it is theirs. And so far
as my influence goes, while I am President, nobody shall interfere
with them.
When some great dailies not very far from where I am temporarily
residing tltundered with rising scorn at watchful waiting, Woodrow
sat back in his chair and chuckled, knowing that he laughs best who
laughs last . ' ' . .
There may come a time when the American people will have to
Judge whether I know what I am talking about or not .But at least for
two years more I am free to think that I do. with a great comfort in

Then thata in something else. The
Democrats have heard the Republicans
t.iiri.n ahnnt thn scientific way in
which to handle a tariff, though the
Republicans have never given any ex
hibition of a knowledge of how to han
dle it scientifically. If it is scientific
to put additional profits into the hands
of those who are already getting the
greater part of the profits, then the
have been exceedingly scientific. It has
been the science of selfishness; it has
been the science of privilege.
' Scientific Tariff Promised.
"That kind of J science I do not care
to Know anytning aoout except enougn
to stop it But if by scientific treat
ment of the tariff they mean adjust
ment to the actual trade conditions of
America and the world, then I am with
them and I want to call their attention,
for though they voted for it they appar
ently have not noticed it to the fact
that the bill which creates the hew
trade commission does that very thing.
We are at pains to see that it was put,
in there.
"That commission is authorized and

Rnl a nf Schoolmaster Aaaiuned.
"Being by profession a schoolmaster
I am glad to point mat ui to me ciass
of uninstructed Republicans, though I
have not always taught in tie primary
grades.
"At every turn the things that the
Progressive Republicans have proposed
that were practicable the Democrats
have either done or are Immediately
proposing to do. If that is not our
bill of particulars to satisfy the inde
pendent voters of the country I would
like to have one produced. There are
things that the Progressive platform
contained wnich we. being constitu
tional lawyers, happened to know can
not be done by the Congress of the
United States. This Is a detail which
they seem to have overlooked. I, for
one, speaking for one Democrat am
heartily in favor of their being done;
because Democrats do not congregate
merely in Washington; they congre
gate also in the state capitals and they
congregate there in a very influential
number, and with very influential or
ganizations. Victory Claimed for Democrats.
"Just before I cnme away from
Washington I was going over some of
the figures of the last elections the
elections of November last The of
ficial returns have not all come in yet
I do not know why they are so slow in
getting to us, but so far as they have
come In they have given me this use
full information, that taking the states
where Senators were elected and where
Senators were not elected taking the
returns for the State Legislatures or
for the Congressional delegates, the
Democrats, reckoning state by state,
would, if it had been a Presidential
year, had a majority of about 80 in
the electoral college.
"Fortunately or unfortunately this is
not a Presidential year, but the thing
is significant to me, for this reason:
"A great many people hav been
speaking of the Democratic parly as a
minority party. Well, if it is, it is
not so much of a minority party as the
Republican and as between minorities
I think we can claim to belong .to the
larger minority. The moral of that is
merely what I have already been point
ing out to you that neither party in
its regular membership has a majority.
I do not want to make the independent
voter too proud of himself, but I have
got to admit that he is our boss, and
I am bound to admit that the things
that he wants are, so far as I have
seen them mentioned, things that I
