All thia for a purpose far greater than

come to the Republic
"The loyalty of the Republican party
has always been and always will be
measured only by the possibilities. The
Republican party- ahall strive with
every means within Its power to win
the war and to win the war now. The
Republican party heralded It. own
birth by savins; the life of the Nation.
and from that hour to this moment
It has been the party of patriotism, and
In thia supreme crisis its patriotic,
loyal membership Is giving: to the last
of Ita -blood and Ita treasure as pa
triotic Americans and will continue to
strive, risht. rive and die until vic
torious American arms have forever
ended the Intolerable arrogance of that
scientifically trained brutality; until
we have a conclusive peace by victory,
and not by compromised bargainlngr.
and the world has been made safe for s
heme for our children's children.
The governing of this country Is tha
fruition of political activity. The vast
Importance of thia governing measures
the like Importance of the professions
and performances of political parties.
If we wculd preserve nor institutions,
let us see to the agencies which con
trol them: and let ua remember that
we da not play politics for party pelf,
but practice patriotic principles tor
progress and permanent prosperity.
Palltlral Fartlea Ie-f laed.
"Political partlea are not Instruments
for Individuals to use for their personal
aggrandisement. Political partlea are
the means by which thinking men and
women promulgate and practice prin
ciples for the government of their own
country, for the control cf the Influences
surrounding the place they call home.
Any man who thinks otherwise Is not
a ware of the high privileges of bis
citizenship- Any man who expects or
wants otherwise la not In tun. with
the forces which control at present,
and tha political party that will com
mand tha confidence that brings sup
port la tha party that understands this.
Its purpose, and remembers It.
Tha very larg majority this
country believe In tha principles of tha
Republican party. Men live and die,
but principles endure. The great prin
ciples of the Republican party since
the days of the emancipation proc
lamation have been right. They are
right now. The Republican party does
not play principles to win. It has ad
vocated principles because they are
right, and because Republicans believe
In them, and we will not prostitute
these principles lor perfunctory pref
erment. "The great advocates of these prin
ciples have not been wrong these many
years. They are aa true as when their
first practice built up tha country. But
we must look forward, not backward.
The Republican party Is the party of
the future, else there la no use for the
party. The needa of yesterday, my
friends, are not at all the needs of to
day; and the Republican party shall con
tinue to be the one Instrument In this
country to apply to new conditions
and changing conditions the wisdom of
experience and the efficacy of honest.
seaious service.
One Passible Rale Laid Doers.
"I assert that there Is but one possl
ble rule for political organization, and
that la that the rights of the Individ
uals within the party to participate
in the management of the party's af
faire shall be and remain equally sacred
and sacredly equal. There Is no zone
of twilight in the actions of a polit
ical party, nor In the conduct of its
organisation. Right Is right, and
wrong ia wrong, and no apology, ex
cuse or subterfuge Is pertinent.
"There are no yesterdays In Jtepub
Ucan politics. I don't care how a man
voted In 191J. 1814. or 1916, nor his
reasons for so doing. We are all one
today: we have work to do for the
good of the country and It takes ua all
to do It. And I insist that all who ara
engaged In this work are entitled to
the same consideration, the man who
has not always voted with us, and the
man who has alwaya -voted with us
because he may not have bad any
reason for doing otherwise.
"The purpose of a political organi
zation is to elect candidates, and not
select them. Above all things do I
recognize that the province of the posi
tion 1 occupy is to aid In laying plans
which may result In the use of every
honest meana to elect candidates and
not in any sense control the nomina
tions. "Everyone knows there will be polit
ical activity. The Democratlo party
has been busy with Its political activ
ity for months, and I Insist that all
this political activity must be open,
acknowledged, and of a character and
on a plane that needs no subterfuge.
"All Republicans In the country, all
those who ever voted the Republican
ticket, all well-wlahera of good govern
ment regardless of past party affilia
tions, ara urged to aid.
"Our policy is assimilation, ana not
elimination. There is farmore In

Patriotism was tha keynote of the
address by Will H. Hays, chairman of
the Republican National Committee,
and other exercises incident to the
luncheon of the Progressive Business
Men's Club at tha Multnomah Hotel
yesterday noon. Mr. Hays paid a tribute
to the patriotism of Oregon's citizen
ship for their enthusiastic and instant
response to tha country's every war
time appeaL
"There is in the country today for
every one but one real business and
that is to win' the war," was the open
ing sentence of Mr. yays and it was
greeted with thunderous applause by
the 500 luncheon guests. "On the ques
tion of the war, there is only one side;
on that side, absolutely supporting the
country's cause, shall stand every poli
tical party and every member of every
political party entitled to any consid
eration whatsoever.
"To win the war abroad, we must
have absolute unity at home. First, we
will have that political peace that
shows to the world that in this country
there Is one issue and one purpose to
which all others are subordinated, and
that is to win the war. There always
will be politics, but politics this year
will not touch the war and will be on
a plane and of a character that needs
no subterfuge.
More Volnateerlaa; IVeeded,
"We must have such Industrial peace
as will make certain that every atom
of brain, every ounce of brawn, goes
where needed most to help the common
cause. And that is not a charge on
labor only. We must have less profi
teering and more volunteering in this
country. The manufacturer who would
take advantage of his country's emerg
ency to profit unduly or force conces
sions unduly from labor is Just as
culpable as the laborer who would take
advantage of hla employer'a emergency
and his country's necessities to force
unfair concessions.
And we have among us the I. W. W
these lawless highwaymen. They are
traitors to their country and ahould be
treated aa such. For the traitor there
is one medicine only and it is taken
standing against the walL Let them
take It.
The need of this country is not for
less politics, but for more attention to
politics by our citizens. To what party
you belong is of less importance than
seeking the truth and acting according
ly. I have no use for the man who
says he Is too busy or too Indifferent
to take an Interest in politics. We can
have good, government and good candi
dates in office only when we take an
interest In politics.
Wis War. and Wla It Now" Plea. t-r
"Men and women, make It your busi
ness to win this war and win It now.
Stand only for a peace gained by vic
tory and not a peace by compromise
bargaining. We must put an end for
ever to the intolerable arrogance of
the scientifically conceived brutality of
the Huns.
"Now wa com to the liberty loan.
Every man and woman should buy at
least one bond. le who does not buy
these bonds to his purchasing capacity
Is not worthy the name of American.
He roust buy until it hurts and then
keep on buying until it quits hurting."
The luncheon was a most enthusi
astic patriotic affair. Frank H. Hilton,
president of the club under whose
auspices the luncheon was given, was
chairman and presented Captain Jacob
Kanzler, an ex-president of the or
ganization, who, in a stirring talk, in
troduced Mr. Hays. "Keep the Home
Fires Burning" was sung, the audience
being led by Lulu Dahl Miller. Other
music was furnished by the Scotch bag
pipe band.
