Our opponent's position was put In homely language by an adher ent of Mr. Taft’s Mr. Campbell of Kansas. Kansas is going like Illinois ^’.nd Pennsylvania, only more so, and Mr. Campbell said %{ir\ any mere ordinary political c, ntc^t-' ‘ ‘I am fighting for the the plain people every- he said, ‘‘and I feel that f iihVL' a right to the support not oniv of every heir o.t the old >v.rih Carolina Whigs, but of ^verv b.eir of the Jacksonian jjem'ocrats. The speaker declar ed ihat he stood for the princip les in which the great bulk of the P^eople of the south beheve and expressed the personal belief t.hat they were kept away from him only because of an idle name. -I am going to do my best to make you vote as you feel, with out regard to names,” he warn ed, ‘ I am goin;? to fight, and ffhen I fight, I fight,’, he declar ed with an emphasis which was not missed by his hearers. Col onel Roosevelt then reiterated his purpose of coming into North Carolina and waging a campaign in the event he was nominated. “I want the Old North State, the old Tar Heel state, to vote right in the next electoral college,” he declared with an enthusiasm which was immediately taken by those of the audience who held a j lege, Colonel Roosevelt declared simiiar hope. _ that affairs should be so shaped Touching his platform he de- j that no man might be helped by ciared that it was founded on the j privile,ye himself or hindered by fundamentals of American eiti-privilege in others. He declared zenship, “We are standing for | his purpose to see the conditions me rij^ht of the people to rule,” iof life and work, so far as he be said, "and also for the people i could arrange it by law, such to rule in a spirit of righteous-; that every American, every man, ness: to rule so as to do justice; every woman within our bounds that my proposals for govern ment were like an appeal from the umpire to the bleachers. You are on the bleachers, according to Mr. Campbell’s theory, Mr. Campbell’s theory was that the American people had nothing to do with politics except pay the price of admission and sit on the bleachers. My theory is that it is the American people who are playing the game, and my appeal is exactly as Mr. Campbell said, it is to the bleachers, and when ever I can get anything apiproach ing a direct primary in nine cases out of ten the bleachers go with us, and Mr. Campbell will find that out.” In urging a genuine rule of the people that legislation in staie and nation alike might be shaped so as to secure justice, so as to shape conditions as far as it is possible by governmental action in such fashion to destroy privi- 10 exei'v man and every v;ithin the boundaries great nation.” Colonel Roosevelt thought that on ihe i'f iurth of July every stand- patiei- in the country would ex press a sentiment similar to the one he had just felt and spoken. v/omen of our shall have a chance to lead his or her life as a self respecting American citiz^?n should under conditi-^ns that will tend for his or her s elf'respect and that will tend for the uphft of the next generation.

We are standing for the riglit of tlie people, not mere ly to vote at elections; we are asking diat the rule of the people be madi genuii.e and not a sham, and I am ordy appealing to what each OEe of you here, you North Carolinians, what each one of you do in your own life. You, I, each of us, wants to rule his own life. ^ “L know that now and then I make mistakes, but they will be my mistakes, and I want to make them myself. If I make them, 1 won’t make the same mistake twice. If somebody else makes them for me, I don’t know how often he will make them. It is the same with the people as a v;hole. I know that occasionally we make mistakes, but I know also that history has taught us that the American people will make very much fewer mistakes in governing themselves than any outsiders will make in governing us.” It w’as in making comparisons of his idea of the people’s judge ment and the president’s gather- _ ed through iiis public expressions aire opponents I shall try to im- well to curb the privileged class. Colonel Roosevelt said: ‘ ‘I'hore are scores of laws we need to pass, some of them affect ing the farmers, some affecting wage workers, some affecting the small business man. I shall not try to enumerate them all. I have gone over them" a'gain and again ni different places. Some of them must be passed by the nation, some of them must be passed by the state, and I hold as to that extent a progressive every man who honestly works with us for any of those laws so as to help the future generation. Remember, friends, we are in honor bound to work for the fu ture. In every audience I am sure to see an occasional citizen carrying a small citizen, I am in the grandfather class myself, and I, and each father and moth er here -wishes to order his or her life so that the children may have a fair chanch in the future. I wish that all of us as citizens shall shape tlie governmental act ion of the nation and state alike so that in the future more and more this shall be a country where justice prevails, for friends, if J were able to impress anything upon my multi-million- that Colonel Roosevelt first men tioned the name of Taft, his op ponent for the Republican nomi nation. “Mr. Taft,” began Mr. Roosevelt with a pronounciation of the name w'hich v^as new in these part£,” said the other day that he distrusted the impulsive .ludgement of the people. I '.vould a great deal rather have the deliberate judgement of the people than their impulsive judge ment but if I have got to choose I will take the impulsiue judge- n'lent of the people every time, rather than the deliberate judge ment of the bosses and politic ians. “Again the other day the President said he tried the rather difficult task of improving on Ab raham Lincoln. Lincoln said this v. as to be a government of the people, for the people, by the people Mr. Taft suggested as an improvement that it w’^as to be a government of the people by a representative part of the people. In actual practice we can tell v>'ho that representative part w’ould be by looking at the men who are managing Mr. Taft’s campaign.

I SPECIAL Fflii THE press this upon them, that in their folly and blindness they are fighting against the interests of their own children and children’s children, and that it is they who stand for justice who are there 1 friends oi their children, for as the sun is above us we may rest certain in this country those who strive for justice are not only striving for those to whom justice is denied but are striving to benefit those very people who deny the justice, and I am help ing when I stive for fair play, for honesty, for equal opportun ity for all men in this country. I am helping to make this coun try what it should be made, and what it must be made if the children and the children’s child ren of the very wealthy are to be safe in it; for this country will not be a good place for any one to live in unless we make it a pretty good place for every one to live in. Commenting upon those declar ed pohcies and beliefs Colonel Roosevelt said that he did not mean that by law a man could be made to succeed if he has not got in him the qualitks that will tend for success. He realized, he said, that we cannot make a man, solely through laws, sober or in telligent or thrifty or hard work ing. “If he is vicious idle and Continued on Sixth Page.
