league of republican clubs a as called to
order by Col. George Stone, the presi
dent, thie morning.
On the roll call of status about half the
number responded. Acting Mayor Gregg
made a short address of Welcome. After
speeches by Gov. Itoosevelt nnd Senator
Nelson, President Stono delivered hie
address. In pnrt Col. Stone said:
"It is not enough to have able leaders,
it is not enough to have immortal piir.ci-i
pics set forth In our platform; wo innst
have loyal pattiolic eitizena who value
the privilege of American citizenship;
men who v. ill lay aside purl lean feeling
and voto along thu lines of putriotism.
I'atiiotism doe not alone consitt in
shouldering thetifleor girding on the
swoid. and a reudinefe to follow the.
j flutterim; flag to far oil fields of glory,
j It is a sentiment implanted in the heart
of loyal men that will compel him to
study his couiilrj's every intcic.-t in
peace as well as war, to voto tight as
well as fight right. Patriotism will
dictato to the honest American voter
that bu btndy thu economic and
industrial questions which will be sub
mitted for his consideration, with an eye
tingle to hifl country's welfare, and with
a heait inspired for his country's glory ;
then we can have no fenr, that when the
principles set forth in our platform are
understood and the worth and mtyit of
the men who cany our standards are
fully esitinntud, the result will bo the
overwhelming election of McKinley and
lioosevelt.
"Of thu duties of public men the im
mortal Lincoln said, 'They should be
men who know and realiza that the first
and greatest iluU of this nation is toix
tend individual liberty to every foot of
soil where thu foi tunes uf peace nnd war
may plant thu Stars and Stripes.' Such
men have wt; in tho republican ptutv,
and biicIi aiu tho men whoso mimes are
presented to thu voters of thu country
for election ol the ollice6of president and
vice-president of I lie United States;
whoso names are synonumous with
honesty, ability, loyalty, cjurago and
nil the qualities that make men gteut;
whoso ability is tho highest council
chambers of the land has been amply
proven ; whoso courageous loyalty bade
them tlnow aside thu pursuits und
pleasures of a busy, happy existence and
hasten to the battleheld at then
country's call, and with the unswerving
in oral eournue. exuiillv irreat, to bid do-
tlanco to criticism and follow tho path
of highest duty, and these are men under
whoso leadership tho grand old party
will in November sweep tho land for
honust government, holiest money and
