He said In parti "I think the Demcratlo convention at Denver has left an Impression far dif ferent from that which followed the con vention at Chicago. 7 "In the Chicago the platform did not represent what the reform element of the party wanted. "But the Democratlo party In this convention has given us a platform that I believe expresses the deliberate eentl meuit at that large and growing reform element In the country. I am satisfied that It Is going to appeal not only to Democrats but to a great many Republ cans. And I am sura that when, people come to know John W. Kern as' I have known him for years they will believe, sh I do, that he Is In perfect harmony with he platform and can be trusted to carry out that platform to the letter If olrcumstances should place upon him the responsibility for Its enforcement. "Now we are going to commence our campaign, and with a publicity plank that announces an honest purpose and roolalms an honest position, wi will e able to appeal to the honest ssutl ment of the oountry. "Uentlemen. there has been treat frowth In politics la this oountry, and hat plank Illustrates ouo phase of that growth. For a quarter of a century the country has been seeing more and "more Of corporate domination In politics; for a qu.nor til cainury ine cuuuirj una witnessed campaign after campaign In which Dredatorv Interests would secret ly contribute enormous sums to debauch elections and then control the govern ment In return for contributions riven, Our convention marks a new era In American polltlos. Henceforth the Idea that Is going to grow Is that elections are nubile affairs and thst. thm neode shall have a right to know what Ins fluenoes are at work and I am delight ea mat our party nas taxen vne iiiitia tlve and when the Republican party. In its -convention, by a vote at erw helming, turned down the Dronosltlon. the Dem ocratlo party, by a vote that was unan imous, indorsed It and made It one of toe tenets or us raith. "Now. we are solnir out to anneal to this awakened conscience and give to the country the assurance that If our party is entrusted witn power we snail make this government again a people's government.
