Mr. Kennedy thanked the convention, say ing that in these troubulou times, victory without a struggle seemed almost too good to be true. He said that when he waa nominated and elected two year ago In the face- of hearty opposition he esteemed the result a compliment, but that he con sidered the unopposed ' renomlnatlon a greater compliment. The contest of two years ago left a few sore spots, he said, but his opponents in the party had co-operated In hi election and made that fact possible, and there' were no sore spots remaining. He said the united condition of the party on the "congressional matter made his elec tion assured. "Why should the people of the United Etates want a change from republican principles and policies?" asked the con gressman, in referring to national affairs.
