"1 recognize your Inlluence as one of the most potent factors in political contests ami 1 am glad to know that this year in a greater degree than ever before, thu commercial men of the country are united in the cause of the Ilepublican party. You have not al ways been In such close agreement witli each other politically as now, but then you have had experience and . for four years or nearly so, you have been attending tho school in'w hieh all the rest of us have been pupils. It has been u free sclu-ol. Tlie tuition lias been free, but the ultimate cost has been very great. No body of American cili.uns of equal number . could properly have a deeper interest in the success wf Republican princi ples than you; and none I am sure can iloso much to secure llieir certain tri umph as you. "Vou are not only carriers of com merce, but creators of contidence; not only advocate; of process, but pruiuot er.s of prosperity. I'verywhero you inspire either conliileuce or distrust, for you tell the truth about tlie condi tion of the country.

"What wo want tibovc all else, my fellow'eitli'ns. is conlidence. And we cannot get conliileuce by thre-itculng to revolutionize, all values and repu diate obligations, both public and private. You know the facts of bus i no v and can cliipcll tlie theories of the dreamer and tlie misstatements of the demngue, and one thing I like about the commercial traveler is that 4. very one of them is for tlie tinted States of America.

My experience with them has been that they havo been poll Wiait.s of the most practical sort known in American politics. Oentlemcn, you never had a worthier cause ntrive for than you havo this year. Thu (itiaucial honor of the country and the prosperity of all its people are enough to Inspire every American heart to the best possible effort, I have seen romewliero an Inquiry, 'Cannot tho United Stntes establish a financial system of its own; Is It too weal; ami impendent to do thatV 1 answer: Tho United Slates now has a llnaneial policy which, in tho main, it has been pur Milng since tlie beginning of the gov ernment, nnd which it does not mean .'to change until It enn find a better ne Those who make the Inquiry are usually against the American policy of finance and they are insisting that wo sh.ill adopt the lluauclul policy of China and Mexico.
