meuijs ot elections and. governmental ac
tion. 'Owing to thejargo amouut ot wealth
devoted now toslucatlon and philan
thropy, there has bean aroused a most
commendable Interest In the poor and the
suffering. So Intensely enthusiastic so
cial worKers become, that they loso vholr
sepse of proportion and forget the Inter
est of thosa Who are not detiendents and
yet who make up tho kreat majority of
tho common people
"To thcao enthusiasts, however, the ne
cessity for turning all tho activities of
the government Into plans for tho' anlell
prntlon of the particular dependents
whom they have under their observation
becomes exigent; and the look to the
government as an Instrument for Im
mediate relief. ' I am sorry to say that
have had so much to do with uctuat
government In the Philippines and lit
Washington that I cannot Join In the
glowing promise that government action
can remedy all ot the ovlls ot poverty,
sin, disease and Ignoranoe as set forth In
the prospectuses of an ambltltt political
party. I cannot help asking by what
moans these reforms, are to be accom
plished, except by. more uniform enforce
ment of the la.ws and' by making the gov
ernment more economical and efficient.
"Is there any better way of helping the
people than to have tho tax money spent
economically to accomplish the purpose
directed by law? Is this not greatly
more to their Interest than the cloquont
exploitation of Impracticable theories ot
reform that can never be fitrrled out
by governmental machinery, but must de
pend for their realisation upon the Im
provement and strengthening of Individ
ual character?
Why Ho Is Out of Tuue.
Xntt thus I ' nnd thyself out, of ' tune
because I cannot resist 'the dec! re. to ask
for plana' and specification", for actual'
statutes to do' the things jvhlch.are prom
ised. Yet? -the 'mere query, tho mere- at-
tldldd'of InQulryputti one at once lntha
ranks ot- the doubters, dubs one at once
as a reactionary, places him at onco
among tho aristocrats and provonts his
being treated or regarded as a friend f
the people.
Another feature of this period has been
the recklces misuse of tho press and the
magaslnes for the misrepresentations ot
motives of men eugaged tn public life.
The Issues arising as to the tariff upon
print paper and also upon the Increase uf
postage for second-class matter put those
who. owned and controlled such agencies
lu the attitude of partisans and many 3t
them Improved their opportunity to at'
sault those who opposed their particular
Interests.
The publiq has not been content to
estimate and weigh the. things done at
their face value, but have accepted hos
tile statements that good things wero
done either with an Improper motive, or
because I could not help it, or were really
done by somebody else, -and that on the
whole I was unfriendly to the people.

load .people .to belleya that moro real re
form hus been accomplished in my ad
ministration that will ever flow from an
attempt to put Into practical operation
the promises which havo been made in
recent party platforrns to make tho rich
moderately poor, and the poor moderately
rich, and to eliminate by statute all sin.
Injustice, poverty and suffering.
Tnftphobln to lie Cnretl.
"It gratifies mo to feel that my going
out ot offtco will remove this cause, will
end the 'Toftphobla' that has governed
the action of some In Influential posi
tions, and will tend to end these divisions
that have been caused by personal rea
sons rather than on principle. There 's
much of tile persona! about what Is callO'l
'Insurgenoy,' It one man advocated a
principle Jt has been all right because
ho has shown himself an Insurgent. Ori
the other hand, It another advocated ex
actly tho same thing It had to bo con
demned becauso of the source from whlc.i
It came. Now, ot course, this la Unrea
sonable, but It Is. a real feature of the
situation.
"1 go out of office with deep apprecia
tion of the honors 1 haveenjoyed, with,
profound gratitude to the American peo
ple mk1 without any feeling of bitterness
against anyone. I whall retain a very
earnest desiro a a private citizen to help
my country and my fellow men In. tho
struggle for continuance ot free effective
government.
"We were beaten In the last electlpn.
We ran third In the race. Why Is it that
wo gather here with so much spirit, and
wth so llttlo disappointment and humilia
tion? Is It not that In splto of the defeat
recorded at the elcctloir In November, we
were stilt victorious in saving our coun
try from an administration whoee policy
Involved tho sapping of the foundation Of
demorrutlc, constitutional, representative
government, whoso appeals were calcu
lated to urouse class hatred that has here
tofore been tho ruin ot popular govern
ment and whose contempt for tho limita
tions of constitutional law and the guar
anty of civil liberty promised chaos and
anarchy ty .
Victory for J.nvr mid Order.
"The rrault of the Chicago convention
was a triumph for the permanence ot re
publican Institutions, the Importance of
which cannot be exaggerated. We meet
In no spirit of d cm pair, but rather to re
joice In a Victory for law and order. It
Is true that we were defeated at the polls
by our old tlmo opponent, the democratic
party. It Is truo that wo ara now koIiik
to work out again the problem of eating
our oalte and having It, too, by showing
how it Is possible to change from a sys
tem ot protection for manufactured In
dustries to one ot a tariff for revonuo
only, without affecting the Industries to
their detriment and without halting pro-
luctlou or lowering wages. It Is true that
we aro to witness ah attempt to satisfy
the crying need for a new banking and
currency system by a plan which ts to
embody as many as possible of the fea
tures of the Aldrtch monetary commission
plan disguised as much as may be so as to
permit denial of any semblance. It is
true that we aro t "witness a change of
office holders from republicans to demo
crats and we are to see how economical
the new administration Is to be as com
pared with the old. Wo have been through
this before. It may be that tHIs tlmo
they can do v. hat tluiy have not succeeded
( n uuiu inrrmvurr, unu. ir so. ana they
tan maintain the prosperity ot the coun
try at It's present' record level then -we
-shall rejoice at 'thelrl success.
"What Is there, in tho present condition
that the progressive party party repre
sents which can lead us to -suppose that
human naturo has so changed that no.
restraint Is uecossary In all society to
prevent one man from oppressing an
other or to prevent a majority of men
frojn oppressing ' An Individual or a
minority? What is It that constitutional
limitations aro for in a popular gov
ernment? A popular government is a
government by the people this la by
a majority of tho people, who, under
the law arc given the right to exercise
the electoral franchise, and constitutional
limitations aro Imposed to' prevent tho
misuse ot the' power of tho majority, so
that the Individual or the minority may
not suffer injustice through tho action
of the majority. Where Is the security
in present society that the majority may
hot from time to time do injustice to
the minority and' to the individual?"
Majority Hot Always Right.
"It is said that we distrust the people
If .wo assume that the majority will over
do Injustice In other words, the con
tention Is that tho voto of the majority
Is always right. Well, as the majority
In passing upon a given question de
termines sometimes one way, and some
times another, In which case .Is It right?
If tho wisdom of our forefathers and of
the long line of able men .who have
fought for popular government has lot
to the Introduction into overy scheme of
government of restraints to prevent In
Justico by the majority to tho minority
and tho Individual, what Is thero that
has happened In recent years to make tis
feel that a change has come over the
character of majorities so that they
may not exercise the tyranny that the
have exercised In the past,, and In respect
to which they have been restrained by
constitutional limitation.?
'There are the Inequalities In aoclety
to be wiped out. How la government to
assure' napplrtess to tho Individual? Is It
by an equal distribution of property? Is
it by taking from one man that which is
his and giving It to another who has not
enrped it? I submit that this is tho
ultimate result of a thorough analysis of
all the theories advanced by the pro
gressive party. It Is easily seen that
under the progressive program the whole
machinery that has been ' so carefully
built up by the older statesmen of this
country and or Kngland to save to tho
Individual and the minority, freedom,
equality bifore the law, the right of
property and the right to pursue happi
ness. Is to be taken apart and thrown
Into a Junk heap and the preservation of
such rights or privileges. If you choose
to call them such. Is to be left, to the
charitable Impulse of a benevolent ad
ministration. No one at all familiar with
tho principles of free government and the
tendency of erring and power loving
human nature would be content to have
his liberty or his right of property or his
right to pursue happiness dependant
upon the benevolence of any tone.
lrlncli(lr Alone Cunnl.
"Now H has been suggested that the
republican party can unite again with
many of the progressive party If only a
different rule can be put In force through
the convention or the national committee
by which the reduction ot southern rep
resentation -would be fecured and a fairer
'method of selecting the candidates for
president by the republican party could
be devised. I haven't any objection to
any method which shall bo fair. It Is
the principle that the party advocates
that should control one In Its support.
It Is not that the republican party ts
lwilrous of holdlrw office or power.
though neither is to be despised, but it Is
that in this crisis we feel that wo have
the means of preventing the country
from taking a step which, If token, will
precipitate us into governmental chaos,
will set tho community on a chimerical
choso for an ideal that is Impossible to
realize, and that in thot choso the com
munity will lose the Inestimable benefit
of a permanent, popular government that
we have , developed after 1.0C0 years of
struggle nnd have created, maintained
nnd preserved Inviolate for 126 years of
national liberty.
"'Wo arc not bitter; we are not cast
down; wo are not vengeful. If the peo
ple of the United States can stand a
democratic administration for one or two
or oven 'inoro terms we shall certainly
not.objeqt to' their capacity for endurance
In this regard, but "What we wish to as
sure ourselves of is that neither through
democratic radicalism nor through pro
gressiva radicalism shall the pillars of
our noblo 'state be pulled down and tho
real cause of tho people be sacrificed to
dreams and theories of demagogues."
