I believe in God. the living God, I believe in | the American people, who do not bow the neck or bend the knee to j any other, and who desre no other to bow the neck or bend the knee |to them. I believe the God who created this world has ordained that His children may work out their own salvation, and that His naI tions may work out their own salvation by o' edience to His laws, without any dictation or coercion from any other. I believe that liberty, good government, free institutions. can not be given by any one people to any -ther, but must Ibe wrought out for each by itself, slowly, jiainfully, in the process of I I years or centuries, as the oak adds ring to ring. I believe that a republic is greater than an empire. I believe that the moral law and the golden rules are for nations as 1 well as for individuals. 1 believe in George Washington, not in Na--1 poleon Bonaparte; in the whigs of the revolutionary days, not in the tones.; in Chatham, Burke, and Sam Adams not in Dr Johnson, or Lord North. I believe in the north star abiding in its place, is a greater influence in the universe then any comet or meteor. I be- . lieve that the United States, when William McKiney was inaugurated, was a greater world power than Rome in the height of her glory, or even England with her 400.000.00 C - ! vassels. 1 believe whatever clouds . may darken the horizon, that the

world is growing better; that ti day is better than yesterday, and tomorrow will be better than today.” NOT EFFECTIVE The president's attack upon the democratic position on the money question is strategic, but not effective. The money question is not in the campaign and his attempt to scare gold standard advocates into supporting him will scare as many republicans away from him as it will draw or holdjdemocrats to him. He tries to make capital of the fact that the democrats, after denouncing the t old standard in 1*96 and in 1900, now ignore the question. The silver democrats who regret the failure of their party to reaffirm its position on the money question will not be drawn to Mr. Roosevelt by his zeal to prove himself an ultra champion for gold, and the gold democrats will not forget that Mr. Roosevelt supported his party as enthusistically in 1902 when it declared against the gold standard and in 1896 when it favored international bimematellism as he does today when his platform openly pledges itself to the yellow metal. Neither can the blind be to the fact that Mr. Roosevelt is discreetly silent about legislation on other phases of the money question.— Com moner. Do not forget the best democratic sj>eecn of the campaign at the court room next Friday evening. Hon. C. A. Wendell, of Chicago, is the speaker. Notice.
