Speaker of the House of Rep ! resentatives, made t speech here to ' night in which he quoted George Washington. Job. Mark Hanna, Cas- tandra. the poet Campbell and him I self to prove that the Democratic I party should be maintained in power indeflnielr. If not longer. It was not difficult to' ( gather from Speaker ' Clark's discourse that the counrjr will 1 be saved from bankruptcy and the 1 Germans beaten only if the Demo- 1 cratic majority Is preserved la House and Senate. I : He did not go as far as Col. George 1 Harvey with the Idea that Federal 1 elections should be omitted this fall but he hinted that it would be mighty good thing if the pesky Re publicans had sense enough to rote for the intellectual marvels now be ing presented by the Democratic par ty for reelection or for membership in the houses of Congress. Champ figures that the pilitical battle this fall is going to be humdinger. Says he: 'The speech delivered in New York recently by my good friend, the Hon. Frederick H. Gillett of Massa chusetts, shows that the Republicans are prepared to assault our positions all along the line. Wisdom dictates that we do not permit ourselves to be caught napping. We must fight if we would win." Then the Speaker reviewed the work of Congress in the past year, saying modestly: The amount of work we have ac complished Is amazing, unprecedent ed, stupendous. The sums om mon ey appropriated and the bonds au thorized stagger the Imagination. All this has been done through good team work. It is a wonder that we UUU, have done so well with the instru ment? at hand. The senseless and malicious abuse of the Congress should stop." Thereupon the Speaker argued that it would be folly for the American people to deprive the Democratic par ty of its majority in House or Senate, saying: 'President Wilson is in for the thrpp voars next ensuing. The Sen- nlsn Democratic, is certain to re main Democratic for the next three years, so that the House, now organ ized as Democratic by a slender ina-, Jority, is really the only one of the three legislative branches whose po litical complexion can be changed by; t'.ie elections next November. Why, I then, should the American voters in-1 ject discord into the various parts of the governmental machinery whetr the utmost harmony should prevail i in this awful crisis of our affairs j indeed, of the whole world's affairs when representative government is at stake? I do not believe they will be so unwise, and therefore I confident- lv exnect that the House of Represen seniatives electel in November will be Democratic to back up a Demo cratic President and a Democratic ad ministration in the most stupendous task ever undertaken by me cniiaren of men. "We plant ourselves firmly and tri umphantly upon our unequalled rec ord, on the arduous greatness of things done not upon promise but nnon thlnes. monumental things, ac complished. We are proud, Justly proud, of that record. On that mag niflcent rpcnrd we eo to the DeODli with unbounded confidence, appealing to their good sense ana to meir love nf pnnntrv. In this connection I com- menrl tn mv R enuhllf an friends the advice of one of their ravonte cnier- tains in the days that are gone, Mark Hanna 'Let well enough alone.' " Tho Sneaker talked swlnginglj- about Democratic performances in do- mesHn nnri International affairs, say ing that Congress has passed every law that human ingenuity couia ae vise for the benefit of the soldiers. He added: "Ours is a magnificent, a wonder ful record, which anybody save a stark Idiot can easily and successfully defend. Upon that unequalled record no mnflripntlv anneal to the grand in quest of the nation in the approach ing campaign. On taxation and the financial prob lem, the Speaker said: "There are two ways for the Gov ernment to raise money by taxation and by borrowing. No man of sense will vote to levy taxes except where are absolutely necessary. isoDoay loves to pay taxes. Bonds are simply taxes deferred tne uovernmenis nrnmlssorv notes. The reason why the Government's notes or bonds are considered better than yours or mine for any given amqunt is that the peo ple generally have more confidence In Uncle Sam's continued solvency than they have in that of any person or corporation wnatsoever. imu -hv the Government can borrow money at a lower rate of interest than we can. Taxes should be levied in such a manner as to be as little op-nt-ocatva b nnssihle on the taxDavers No man of sense desires by taxation or otherwise to injure any legitimate business In all this nroad una. ad- nornial wealth should bear its Just proportion, of the public burdens. These statements are axiomatic. "Surely if our young men are wll timr tn riuV their liven nn the battle fields those of us who run no risk of loss of life or limb should be willing, nnt nniv wiuinr. but glad to Day the necessary taxes and to lend the Gov ernment such sums as we are able to lend by buying bonds. "All the taxes we have levied and the proceeds from the seven billion bond Issue, however, did not nearly suffice for our own necessities in this war, and for the necessities of those nations with which we are co-operating. Consequently the Congress au thorized a second bond Issue, a third issue. 'Perhaps other Issues will be necessary. If so, 1 confidently believe that the patriotic people of the coun try will oversubscribe them." , To Cure A Cold in One Day. Take LaxatlT Bromo Quinine.
