Edwin I. Morrow. In his address at the Republican lore feast said: Indies and Gentlemen As I look out at this audience and see the glance of the eye and feel the red pepper of energy and enthusiasm of this bunch of live Republican, there is only one thing I. can say to "Boys, you hare got 'em." And nothing on earth will keep you from having them except' knocking other's hands off of them. And this splendid gathering, this body of splendid patriotic citizens of Indiana, convinces me that there la a genuine spirit of "'get together" tn Indiana; and there has never been a time when the Republican ranks tn Indian were united, when men stood shoulder to shoulder, when they really went out with thelrhearta in the fight and in the cause that you didn't bring fcavck the bacon.

In old Indiana. It (liti ine a very peculiar pleasure to he wltn you today. We are neighbors, Kentucky and Indiana. We are friends. and 1 hasten, tn the first place, to ac Knowledge the debt of deep obligation I which the Republicans of Kentucky owe.

to me izepuoiirans or Indiana, in river has never been coo broad that your kindly hands did not stretch across it, and your good will did not come to us. and so today I am glad to be here as the representative of the ReDublicans in Ken tucky, to bring to you our good wishes. to bring to you our gooa wins, to bring to you the message that the Republican party la united without a faction: alive, militant, hopeful; and we want you in November to put your bands half across the river and we will put our hands nan across irom the other side, and we will shake hands on a Republican victory and the election of a Republican President. am not here this afternoon to talk to you of the failure of the present national administration. I.

am not here to talk to you of its broken promises, of its violated pledges. Tbese thinga speak for themselves. An empty treasury can not be covered, hid or explained by a perfumed note. Destroyed diplomatic agencies, a wrecaea ana ruinea Department of state can not be explained by writing another firm note. A broken down fiscal policy can not be explained oy an me verbiage wnich we win near upon the floor of con cress in the next six months.

Deeds, results, facts speak for themaelves, and the American people have discovered that the Democratic fiartr Is the party of the finest promises all the world snd the worst party at performance which ever existed in this Union.

The truth will be the on rushlng charge. The con sequences of that struggle, as American citizens and as patriots, we believe will be the good or the ill of this nation: will in volve all that makes this naton great all that should keep it prosperous, all that should make it the land which, under the blessing of God.

it has the right to be. As American citizens, aa patriots, loving this land of ours, hoping for tb best, praying for its progress, for its prosperity, for its destiny." it behooves us to stand as one man, actuated by the same hope, led by the sa.ne desires, thrilled with the same emotions, glorified by the same consecra tion to puouc duty, to the end that bacK to the control of the affairs of this nation. Intrusted again with power and authority there a ha 11 come the one party, the old party, the true party which has always made the affairs of this nation. held them in hand with capacity, solved them with the nights or wisdom and the minds and hearts of statesmanship and made this nation for the last fifty years everything and all that It la today. We can not win with broken, dissevered, estranged pajy.

We can not bring success. we' can not crown our efforts with victory, if the Republican party and Its members wander from the fold, stay out of the homestead and fight one Egalnzt the other. Whatever there may have been in the past. It is past. Whatever mistakes there may have been in the years that have gone, that, too, is but water which has flowed by the mill.

We have known what the breaking of the family ties meant in the home of the Republican party. We do not say down In Kentucky. "Come back home." We say thla, that we just "met up" on the highway, and all of us go home together. When you meet up. you don't know whether you are coming or whether you are going; but If you get home at last.

It Is all right. And surely, my friends, there Is enough room In the old Republican homestead for everybody. In the home that sheltered Lincoln. Kentucky gave him. for a while, to Indiana.

His mother sleeps today in your soil, and although dead for fifty years. Lincoln's memory, today, is aa gentle as the summer's air when reapers sing amid the gathered sheaves of golden grain. home of Lincoln, the home of the stern soldier lad, the home of the martyred Garfield, the home of the great American, Lincoln, the home aye, the at last, of Theodore Rooaevelt; the home of William Howard Taft: the home of the great men who have made, who have guided, who have saved the Republican warty. There is room around that fireside for every man who loves the flag, who loves his country, and who aeeks the welfare of the nation. Kentucky Sends Greetings.

I thank God that at last. In Kentucky, the old "log cabin la filled again with its children, and all we have to doiy now, la; to tell the fiddler' to reach up on' the lire board, take down the old fiddle, put it under his chin and atart to fiddling "Rabbit In the Pea Patch." "Turkey In the Straw" and the "Arkansas Traveler," to start the boys to dsncing and lift the roof clean off the cabin. And In this spirit Kentucky sends to you. today, her greetings. As I look out over this audience, they look to me Just like a lot of Kentucky politicians, only they are a little bit more active, and considerably spryer.

You are having, or are soon to have your primaries, when this party, with its collective wisdom, with its best judgment, sense and intelligence, shall choose for you your leaders. When that choice shall have been registered, when the will of this party shall have been recorded at the polls, I know the choice will be of good men. I know that they will be men of capacity and power, but whoever they be, whatever their names may be, as I look Into the faces of this audience today. I believe they will become the candidates of every Republican who stands back of them, to work for them, fight for them. If need be to pray for them, and finally to bring them a splendid, triumphant victory.

It la 92. and again I feel the thrill of that great campaign: I aee the assembling multitudes; I see the marching throngs under the ancient spluttering torches; I hear the eloquence of orators, who, tn words smooth and fair, make their pledges to 'the people; I listen te marching hosts of democracy, singing, "Grover, Orover, four more years in clover." The ballot is cast.

The will of the people Is recorded. hear the shouts of triumph from the throats of thousands who followed the man from Buffalo. Democracy, triumphant, sits in the seats of the mighty and holds the scepter of power. The past rises before me. God, what a change In the Uvea and hearts and homes of men! American Industry, mill and factory lie prostrate in the dust; great financial Institutions totter, struggling to the end.

SUFFRAGIST NOT IMPRESSED BY ARGUMENTS ANLXMETHODS OF ANTIS By Ida Hasted Harper! v. WASHINGTON, December JL In he rush of women's conventions' this month that of the Anti Suffrage Association has almost been overlooked perhaps because it was such a little one It does seem doesn't It, that this august body, claiming to represent 90 per of all the women In the United States, should And one. morning and afternoon ample time for its national convention; while tK.

Ciim iHiuatlAn Mn. resenting only 10 per cenC, should find etgnt fall days and evenings not enough 7 The latter did not even adjourn to attend the congressional hearings, but sent its speakers and the delegates remained to attend to business, while the entire con vention or "antis? went to the committee rooms. There was also an active branch of suffragists in Washington, just finishing up another convention, not affiliated with the national. The "antis" ere so chary of giving out statistics that the his torian must write from eyesight and guesswork, but apparently not more than half a dosen states were represented at their "national" convention. Nearly all of the forty eight had delegates at that of the Suffrage Association.

The latter had voluminous reports in each of the Washington papers for more than a week: the "antis" had about one column spread over two days, including; their visit to the White House and Uenerali Fosters letter. Their convention was credited with "100 persons preeent." The surrraglsts ha a 653 delegates besides alter nates and members of the association. Why Comparisons Are Made. These odious comparisons would not be made except for the Important fact that the basic claim of the anti suffragists for the existence of their organisation is that they represent 0 per ot the women of the country. This assertion is constantly made by their officers, speakers and official organs, but even If It were true they would have no right, morally speaaing.

to nana togetner to prevent tne 10 per cent, who do want to vote from obtaining the privilege. They urge in Justification that "a small, noiay. aggressive minority of women" to use their exact language "are trying to force the ballot on the great unwilling majority." as nobody is or ever has been "forced" to vote In any state it is not likely that coercion would be used on women. But If they could really demonstrate that they are striving to save 90 per rent, of the women from having thrust upon them a duty which it would hurt their, consciences to evade, this tniarht serve as at least; a semblance of excuse for organizing to prevent it. On the contrary they can not produce one shred of proof that they represent per cent, or any majority oi women wno do not want to vote.

They never have done so, they never can do ao, and this first attempt at a national convention is merely the latest of their failures to show that they represent even a respectable minority. The funniest part is that they do not themselves see how funny they are. The sternest suffragist falls down in her at tempt to deny that women are tuogicai and Inconsistent, when confronted with the pronouncements and performances of the "antla." The New York Tribune report aald: "Their resolutions were devoted wholly to 'knocking' the suffre a ista." What else can they Uo. for Mrs. Dodge, the president, says: "Our work is not constructive." It must then be destructive and bowl over the enemy.

The last resolution, after asserting that "the suffragista must know their efforts are thoroughly futile, and are making iim of the a ovwrnment for purposes of self advertising and exploiting their propaganda, declared: "That this organisation deprecates and condemns the lack of patriotism exniottea ny tne suTregists in uselesslv annoying the President of the United States and congress in making a sham fignt wnicn is a scanoai ano a reflection upon tne intelligence or. American womanhood." Filed Past, Shook Hands. Having adopted this unanimously they i9tBI (before the committees Of both houses of congress, and ended with a visit to Presi dent Wilsonl Ot this visit the WashiniT ton Star said: "Delegates to the annual coavenUoa of audiences assembled; again we 'are in the midst of a great campaign. Out of the west there comes a would be Moses, and we again hear th'e old, old words of cunning and deception only, now. It has a silver lining.

The people listen, but, hearing, they do not believe. They feel, they know that they have They are wise through bitter experience, and they turn, as turn they always will, to the party of proven capacity and power, to the party of progress prosperity, to the party led by that matchless American, that lofty statesman, William Mc Klnley. Again the scene changea What a transformation 1 Panto is banished, confidence restored, mill and factory throw wide their doors, whistles blow, anvils ring, spindles turn, great engines throb, and the mualc of American Industry and American toll is once more Abroad in the land. Men are no longer Idle, labor is no longer helpless. poverty and want fade and vanish In the glow from open furnace doors.

Through the heart and arteries of the nation there runs the rich red tide of trade and commerce, while over all. keeping all. meaning all. there is a Republican shield of a broad and ample system of American protection. Sixteen years the great years of the Republican party, years of prosperity, of plenty, of industrial development with our trade world wide, with the flag respected and hokored abroad; plenty at home; a great war fought and won.

and a nation going onward In gigantic strides cf stalwart progress, guided and guarded by the principles of the Republican party. In the hands of Republican executives and a Republican congress. In 1912 we agan hear the fair, smooth promises of the party that has always destroyed the welfare of this country: again we hear the promises of cheaper food, of cheaper clothing: again we are promised that the cost of living shall be reduced, that prosperity shall be maintained, that the financial integrity of the nation will not suffer, that Its fiscal affairs will be well and honestly and savingly managed. The people listened. Doing well, they seek to do better, believing In the glittering promises that are made to them.

The party that has meant ao much to the country, the party hlch has always performed Its promises, the party which has shielded and guarded the industries of this nation, la turned from power. Our masters are changed new servants of the people take the places of authority and ot power; a new policy, a cure all. a save all, a make all. is put Into effect by the law. Saye War Acts as Tariff.

Within ten months we have lost the balance of trade; American business and finance staggers under the confidence Is lost Again always the cause producing the result again comes again comes industrial stagnation, again comes business calamity, again comes want again comes the old, old words which, never on earth, were heard under a Republican administration, "had times." This condition continued until Providence, In some Inscrutable wisdom, brings on the great war In Kurope. Automatically it acta almost as a protective tariff, to protect the industries of this The great war orders flood and glut the markets of the country. There comes a seeming semblance of prosperity, a gleam only, of light through the dark clouds of business, and financial, and that gleam of light which falls today upon this land, the only light of prosperity that comes to us, comes from the throat ef cannon, and the bursting shrapnel on the battle torn fields of Europe. We have loet the old prosperity, universal as the sunlight, which threw Itself on every home and hamlet throughout the land, and its place we find an unnatural, unholy prosperity, which, for the time being, will be with us, but which, at last must end and place us again upon the resources of American statesmanship and American wisdom, to prevent. the recurrence of the conditions which preceded the war in Europe.

Party Needs a Man as Leader." My friends, great things are coming to this nation, great opportunities lie at the threshold ot, the republic when this, war shall have ended. When peace again blesses mankind, when the still, small voice of humanity shall have been heard the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage called on the President today, filed past, shook hands and quietly left the White House The President uttered not a word in regard to his attitude on the suffrage question indeed he was given no opportunity to say anything and the delegation of about 150 women bad come and gone, before a great many of the White House attaches even knew it had called." i It came and went like a beautiful dream, so to say, but it Mr. Wilson didn't get a chance to Mra Dodge did. and' In the name of her association she said: "I wont to thank you for taking the position that no constitutional amendment should enfranchise the women of this country." Perhaps she said no "national" amendment, as he approves ot woman suffrage by state amendment, but she was not so reported, and maybe In her haste to prevent his saying that he did she left out the Important word. But suppose before the "antis" visit 'htm' again he should progress to the point of declaring for a national amendment, what could they thank him for then well, they may have all Joined the suffragists by that time and can have union thanksgiv ing services.

The grand feature of the anti suffrage convention was the letter of John W. Foster, former secretary of state, read by his daughter, Mrs. Robert Lansing, wife of the present secretary of state, and a "star' member of the Anti Suf frage Association. As Mr. Foster is an Indiana man, his views will have a 'special interest for western readers.

They are principally directed against a na tional amendment, although he is appar ently not in favor of equal suffrage itself. "Female suffrage," he writes, "involve the Question of race, of labor, of Immigration, of literacy, of property. California would deem ita sovereign rights invaded, and outraged if the Asiatic" immigrants should be admitted to the right to vota" He refers then to the feeling in the south if "the millions of negroes that by legal enactment and otherwise they have kept from the polls" should be admitted mere Dy a national woman suffrage amendment. "A number of states grant to Immigrants the right to vote before they have completed their American citizen ship," he says, "but it would hardly "be regarded as Just to other states to com pel them by federal amendment to grant this right." There would also be the same Injustice toward those states that have a literacy test or a property qualification" if a national amendment forced the abandonment of these restrictions. There are two points that with all his sagacity as a constitutional lawyer Mr.

Foster ignores. First, that the proposea woman suffrage amendment which haa been before congress almost forty years reads simply: 'The right to vote shall not be denied or abridged on account of sex." It leaves every state absolutely free to impose any other restriction that It pleases, literacy, property, five years residence for Immigrants, etc. all of which may be overcome in time. It forbids only that a state shall Impose the restriction of sex, which can never be overcome. One can not imagine congress submitting a national amendment to compel the enfranchisement of Asiatics when the United States laws forbid their naturalisation and only those from Other countries who have become naturalised can vote.

Another weak point in Mr. Foster's argument is the classifying of women, by implication, at least, with Asiatics, negroes, aliens and illiterate men. To be sure they are placed with these classes in the constitutions of all states where they are disfranchised, but it seems a little worse to be included among them as "horrible examples" when it Is pro posea enrrwncniae women inrougn tne national Constitution. Burden cf Speeehee. Suffragists tnay Justly feel that they have made great progress when they have forced the opponents practically Into the position of concentrating their efforts al most wholly against a national amendment and but little else was manifest at this convention.

At the "hearings" before the committees of the congress this was the burden of their speeches and in answer to the pointed question of the chair man of one: men you tninic the women should go to their states for the suffrage?" Mra Dodge said: "Yes, to the statea" All the old talk about the injury to the home and the state, and the appeals to save women trpm the terrible through the roar of battle and peace comes, then at the head of this nation tndeed will we need a man. Aa I look into the future I believe I can see some of it. I believv this great land, this land ot capacity, this land of efficiency, this land with the American Ideals, will take its place in the markets of the world, that Its line ot business and trade will become world wide, meeting every carrying justice, humanity, the American principle, along with everything thet we do and everything that we accomplish, our banner far thrown, protected on the sea, respected abroad, standing for all that thla country is, and for all that it hopes to be. To lead the hosts of the Republican party in the coming battle, 'we need a 'man. I am not here as an Individual today, but I am as a representative, representing the, sentiments and the.

hopes and the beliefs of 22S.00U loyal militant Republicans in the state of Kentucky, men who love that party, and are profoundly convinced of the wisdom and the righteousness of her policies, citizens who love this nation, and prsy for Its progress, its developments and its future. Indian fans. Republicans. I bring to you today this mesaage. Hers is my heart: here is my hand; and With It there goes the heart and there comes the hand of every Republican In Kentucky.

We are enia bors. We are friends. Our commonwealths trace their history to the same source. Our common ancestry fought the savage, the wilderness and the English, and carved from the wilderness the empire of the great northwest. The commingled blood of our common ancestors sanctifies the soil of Indiana.

Should Stand Together. It is fitting, then, that these two states, so much alike In their hopes; and with such a common history, with such ideals, that we should. In this comfng struggle for the nation, for the people, for the flag, stand together. Syrte of old VI cennes, consecrated by heroic memories, where fell both Kentucky and Indiana pioneers; state of Indiana, today give us a leader Give as a "nan. Give us a man with brain and heart, with purpose and patriotism, great enough to lead the hosts of Republicanism.

Such a man you have. He Uvea In your midst honored, loved, respected by all. with combination ot head ana neari equal to any man in the republic Tried In the arena of great deeds, tested in the great affairs of this nation, stainless in the great white light of publicity, his character above reproach; a man who fills every qualification and combining the elements of stalwart splendid Americanism. That man, that leader, whidh Indiana should today offer 'tc the nation, is Charles Warren Fairbanks. That man can swing Kentucky into the Republican column.

That man can sweep Indiana. That man can carry the nation and be the next President of the republic As the voice of Kentucky Republicanism, we proclaim him as our and he shall have and will have the hearty, the earnest the unqualified support of every Republican in that state. For this man there is no opposition. As nearly as we have taken the will of tha Republicans of Kentucky. At a meeting ot more than 300 Republicans, held in the open, representing every section of the state, representing every semblance of a faction throughout the ranks of our party, In a meeting open to the press, a resolution of that meeting was unanimously passed, pledging to your son, to the son ot Indiana, the support of Kentucky; and the delegates from that state to the Chicago convention to be for him to the end for the next presidential nomination.

Kentucky holds out Its hands to you Republicans of Indiana. We can enlist with you for the war and until the war ends, for your splendid fellow townsman, Mr. Fairbanks; and with Indiana and Kentucky shoulder to shoulder, I believe we can clean up anything In the whole world. It certainly will be a splendid start to bring'in Massachusetts and New York' and Pennsylvania and the rest of the states right along In the line and make them step out with Kentucky and IndteTuv only we will be in front 'Now, my friends, thank you for your kindness and for youri attention and for your courtesy; and today I have but one wish for all, coming at our Christmas I have for you the wish, the hope and prayer of Tiny Tim, "God bless us everyone." burden was "conspicuous by its absence.

SOLD BY ALL RELIABLIhFUEL DEALERS PAY NO ATTENTION TO VENERABLE MONUMENTS SOLDIERS AT FORGET GLORY OF FORMER DAYS. MARCH FROM APPIAN WAY Correspondence of Associated preraj ROME, December 8. There are strange and suggestive contracts In the Kternal City during these war days, with the soldiers of today marching and camping among the monuments and ruing of the soldiers of the past.

Today a regiment of Italian Infantry came from the Appian Way, passed the Palatine hill with the gaunt and cavernous ruins of the palaces of the Csesars, then swung in a long circle around the Arch of Constantine. passed the Coliseum and the Forum, and then moved on along the Tiber, to the crumbling ruin of that bridge where Ho ratius held back the Tarquln army. These modern soldiers marched smartly, and paid no attention to the venerable monuments or military giory an arouna them. It was merely one of many detachments moving from 'the suburbs to the barracks near the Janlcuhim. They were sturdy young peasant soldiers; with dark faces and eyes.

Their uniforms were bluish gray, loose and ntung, with square cap and low falling visor. They carried their guns Irregularly at shoulder arma' All Hours of the Day. Around these old monuments of Rome soldiers may be seen marching all hours of the day; "arid the sculptures and Inscriptions seem to show how the remote past is bound up with the events of today. Around the Coliseum, for instance, soldiers have been marching for the last 1.000 years. The Arch of Constantine commemorates Constantino's great victory over Maxentlus, and the founding of Constantinople, to which Constantine gave his name Constantinople, which was a center of warfare nearly.

2,000 years ago as it ia today. Nearby the Arch of Titus marks the capture of Jerusalem. One of the reliefs on the Titus arch shows a tremendous battle with the Dacians. The soldiers who keep passing today seldom glance at these battles of the past, and, singularly, the tourists 'seldom glance at the soldiers of today, but are absorbed in the monuments of past military achievements. 4 A favorite place of resort for the officers and soldiers when off duty Is tho piazza Venezia In the heart of Rome, with a view of the nearby column of Trajan.

The column looks as solid today as when erected eighteen hundred "years ago. In honor of Emperor Trajan. If the soldiers took the trouble to examine the sculptured reliefs, winding from top to bottom, they i would find almost a count erpart of the battles going on today Irf the BaiKans, as tnese reueis represent the wars with the German tribes along the Danube battles on the very ground where the Germans, Serbs and Bulgarians have Just been fighting. One relief represents a thirsty army getting relief from a providential rainstorm. On Plain of Mont Mario.

The chief encampment of Italian troops, la in the surburb west of Rome, on the broad plain of Mont Mario, named after the great soldier, Martus. There are 4.060 to C.OeO soldiers tn this encampment, and they are tramping over the same ground on which Martus and his legions marched. It was through Mont Mario, also, that all the great invasions of Rome occurred, with the final capture ano sacking of the city and the fall of the Roman empire. And these soldiers of today are maneuvering over the same ground that witnessed those decisive events of the world's history. Crossing the Tiber one sees soldiers on guard along the upper walls of the great castle of St.

Angelo. The so called castij is, in fact, the tomb of the soldier Emperor Hadrian and commemorates his fhlevementa It was used as a military barracks at one time, but now new barracks have been built and only a fer soldiers are left as a guard of honor for this monument of past miltary glory. There is the same military movement going on around all these famous monuments of the past. And the inscriptions show that about the same thing haa been going on for J.0OO years eoTdlers marching, armies fighting along the Danube, the Rhine and the Alps, and other armies headed toward Constantinople history repeating DryV to Begin Flflht at Elwood.
