IVir National Defense.
Perhaps It Is a reminder more than
a discovery, hut there has come to us
a conviction that this great nation,
I ch In resources and strong In pa
triotic manhood, has been negligent
concerning Its own defense. We have
dwelt in fancied rather than real se
i urlty. Pride mingles with regret In
this, because It suggests the mind of
a nation so free from Intended of
fense that there was no cultivated
thought of needed defense Our
righteousneas of purpose is portrayed
in our trust in unarmed safety. But
there is a warning In bleeding Eu
rope, and there Is call today for pru
dent, patriotic and ample national de
fense There Is no mistaking the sen
timent. We are not thinking of the

a preparedness which la partisan In
conception. We need not believe In
a defense propaganda Inspired by
those who aim to wax fat In the pro
paganda Inspired by those who aim to
wax fat in the production of arms
and munitions, because there s none.
I deplore the teachings that an an

speech and free press and untrammel-i
led opinion, but, patriotism is Illy pro-
moted by the imputation of falae mo-j
lives, whether aimed at those who
relieve in defense or those who doubt
Its wisdom. Much a teaching rendaj
the concord of citizenship, which may:
develop a worse perl from within'
than from any enemy without.
Though we do not pretend to be ex
clusive In our devotion, w republi-1
canB believe, sincerely and soberly, In
adequate national defense. We have
always believed In an ample navy, as
invincible in modern might as Jejhn
Paul Jones bullded In our freedom's
earliest fight. We nave in mind a
protected commerce on the waters and
i seacoaat secure In strong naval de
fense. We were building to high rank
among naval powers when the demo
cratic party Interrupted, and we sub-j
nerlbe to a stronger committal now
because of a new realization of the
envy which our wealth and our com-mer-e
Invite, and a new appreciation
of our commanding place In the affairs
of the world. 1 shall not say that It
is ours to have the greatest navy in
the world, but noting the elimination
of distance and the passing of our'
one-time isolation, we ought to have
a navy that fears none In the world,
and can say any time and anywhere I
these are American rights and must
be respected.
Economy in Security.
It is not for me to specify the pro-
visions for naval defense. Since mud- j
em warfare is In large part a conflict ,
Of brains, so must naval defense he de-j
vised In highest intelligence. Let us;
strengthen every arm aerial, subma-i
rlne, fleet cruisers and great dread-!

citizen, whatever his activity, knows

his income, is worth rts cost, in peace

Moreover, under any system security
economy itself.
There are manifest differences about
our developments for military defense.
The president made a trip from the
coast to the valley or the Missouri to
toll the American people the need of
preparedness, it mrght have been
more seeml to tell the story to con.
ress. for that body was in session
and empowered to act, and seemingly
ever ready to teBtify ooedience. How
ever, congress undertook to provide
an army for defense) and the majority
wobbled between pacification and
preparedness until the republican mi
nority in the senate put something
real In the pending measure. We re
publicans made a rational response to
the call of the land, but democratic
.sufficiency and inefficiency are re
corded in the conference-amended act,
and a federal nitrate plant to supply
powder to the patriots and pap to the
paternalists and federal fertilizer to
the farmers in competition with pri
vate enterprise is the great construc
tive offering of a democratic major
ity. Until the civilized world is pledge J
and repledged to peace, and until civ-
I ilization commits nations to the no
I liter practices of the Individuals who
constitute them. In which I would
I have Ametictt lead, this republic will
' have need for a basic army and s,
ready provision for military defense
I territory to defend, we have
hysterical, we need not be moved by to unseath the sword for humanity's
fake and put all territorial aggrand
izement aside, with that belief In the
square deal, Individual, national and
International, which Is the foundation
of American faith we mean to go on,
. n exemplar"! peuee to all the na
tions, an arbiter of Justice to all the
world, a promoter of righteousness to
all the people of the earth
At the same time we have more to
do than to chart a national course
through the waters surging with the
turbulence of war; our Inspiring
course Is on the highway of peace.
Our armed defense must ever be
linked with our industrial self-rell-unce,
and the nation worth dying for
must first be worth living for. nut
of nature's prodigality we have incal
culable resources and limitless pos
sibilities, and there Is need only for
the unhindered application of man's
genius and Industry to make up as In
dependent industrially as we are free
politically. Ample derense rests on
industrial freedom and self-reliance
U well us Iiatrlotie sacrifice arid in-I
dustrlal preparedness gives that assur
ance of material good fortune in
peace on which must he founded all
our higher aspirations.
The pmtrt-tlvp l-otiry
Subsistence Is the rirst requisite of
existence, and we have the higher Am
erican standard of living because of
the republican protective policy which
makes of Americans the best paid
workmen in all the world. Out of
the abundance of employment and
higher compensation, together with I
the beckoning opportunity which of-'
fers every reward. We Americans have
attracted the laborers of the earth.
and set new standards here.
It Is not for me to put the stamp of
relative importance on pending ls-,-ues
the Intelligent voters will de
termine that for themsehes. Hut I
snow what they are thinking, and
they believe that the protective pol
icy which made us industrially and
commercial eminent ts necessary to
preserve that eminence. I know they
want it restored and maintained. For
myself I prefer a protective and pro
ductive tariff which prospers Amerl
ia first. I choose the economic policy
which sends the American working
men to the savings hanks rather than
the soup houses. I rommend the plan
cuder wlch the healtfttl glow of pros

Moreover, 1 like the abiding con- I
slstency of our unchanging position I
upon this policy The republican con- j
ventlon of 1860, which gave to the na-
tion and all history tne nomination of j
Lincoln, made this simple and ample
utterance:
"That while providing revenue fnrlj
the support of the general govern
ment by duties upon imports, sounl
policy requires such an adjustment of
these imports as to encourage the de
velopment of the industrial interests
of the whole country; and we com
mend that policy of national exchang
es which secures to the working men
liberal wages, to agriculture remuner
ating prices, to mechanics and manu
'acturers an adequate reward for
'heir skill, labor and enterprise, and
to the nation commercial prosperity
and Independence."
We might fittingly reiterate that
utterance today. The failure of reve
i,ues under existing democratic policy,
the necessary resort to the impositlop.
of direct and offensive taxation war
taxes on a people at peace to meet
deficiencies which ever attend demo
cratic control, the depression and dis
aster which follower democratic re
vision, which were relieved rather
than caused by the European war
all these argue the republican restor
ation. Temporary Pro-peril ,
No one disputes a temporary pros
perity in our land today. But it Is
sectional in its factory aspect, abnor
mal in its fevered rush, fictitious In
Its essentials, and perverting in its
tendency. W orse, it is the gold sluic
ed from the river of blood, poured out
by the horrifying sacrifice of millions
of our fellowmen, Qod forhid that
we should boast a prosperity wrought
oi such waste of human life. We
had rather rejoice in the prosperity of
Peace. We had rather boast our good
fortune won from the world as it
stands erect, in a fair contest, where
men openly contended for the laurels
I of industry and the garlands of trade.
I do not mean ihat we must "sharp
er our wits in competition with the
world." for we tried that and Invol
untarily turned the blade to cutting

The Cost of Living.

tion of American sugar has been re

American breakfast table has been

which it had hastened to destroy.
This change of attitude is not be
