Leslie M. Shaw, former secretary
of tho treasury, was the principal
speaker. He declared that Democra
cy has failed every time It has been
tried. In relation to the tariff ha
spoke at length, scoring the attitude
of tho Democrats, and saying:
"The Republican party promises
the people a protective tariff and

tails to tho representative? of the

situation Shaw said:
"Tho recent panic was simply the
result of the cry of 'fire' in a crowded
hall, when there was not oven au
smoke."
Shaw paid a personal tribute to
Bryan, but said that he was wroug
on every public question. He con
eluded the speech with a high tribute
to Taft, and a prediction of Mi elec
tion by a tremendous plurality
