SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE TWO) We believe, moreover, —who that looks about him now with comprehending eye can fail to believe’— that the day of Little Americanism, with its narrow horizons, when methods of “protection” and industrial nursing were the chief study of our provincial statesmen, are past and gone and that a day of enterprise lias at last dawned for the United States whose field is the wide world. We hope to see the stimulus of that day draw all America, the republics of both continents, on to a new life and energy and Initiative in the affairs of peace. We are Americans for Big America, and rejoice to look forward to the days in which America shall strive to stir the world without irritating It or drawing it on to new antagonisms, when the nations with which we deal shall at last come to see upon what deep foundations of humanity and justice our passion for peace rests, and when all mankind shall look upon our great people with a new sentiment of admiration, friendly rivalry and real affection. as upon a people, who, though keen to succeed, seeks always to be once generous and just and to whom humanity is dearer than profit or selfish power. Upon this record and the faith of this purpose we go to the country. EAST BUFFALO.
