Senator Clapp of Minnesota, who came here last fall to make a republican speech, but who deyoted his entire time to a criticism of republicanism and in an effort to discredit every republican but himself, Beveridge and LaFollette, is now out with an attack on President Taft. Senator Clapp should climb over into the democratic bandwagon where he belongs and the sooner the republican party is rid of that class of self-seeking men who believe they have all the virtue of the government cornered, the sooner the republican party will be in shape to make a solid fight In Indiana Senator Beveridge had his chance and failed. It was a real good failure, tdo, for it kept the republican party from adopting individual control and from permitting sentiment to be its guiding star. The party should stand for a protective tariff, for good prices, for good wages, for good times, for prosperity should Invite those who are not satisfied to get into the party where they belong.

We are for republicanism along old lines, which have always been progressive, and even if we are defeated, we will know that the country will return to our policies which since 1896 have been in operation have given our country unprecedented prosperity. Let Senator Clapp, Senator LaFollette, Senator Beveridge, and all the personally ambitious men who talk “Mary of the vineclad cottage” language, amuse themselves by their sentiment, but let real republicans, advocating a tariff for the protection of the producer, the manufacturer, the wage earner and every business interest in our country, stand for what he knows to be right and if we fail, which we will, not, if we stand together as we should, we will be called back again after democrats repeat their folly of 18M and
