It Is Better To Be Defeated Standing

In Calm Water Every Ship Has A Good Captain.

I Believe That The Public Temper Is Such That The Voters Of The Land Are Prepared To Support The Party Which Gives The Best Promise Of Administering The Government In The Honest, Simple, And Plain Manner Which Is Consistent With Its Character And Purposes. They Have Learned That Mystery And Concealment In The Management Of Their Affairs Cover Tricks And Betrayal. The Statesmanship They Require Consists In Honesty And Frugality, A Prompt Response To The Needs Of The People As They Arise, And A Vigilant Protection Of All Their Varied Interests.

I Know There Is A Supreme Being Who Rules The Affairs Of Men And Whose Goodness And Mercy Have Always Followed The American People, And I Know He Will Not Turn From Us Now If We Humbly And Reverently Seek His Powerful Aid.

The Wage Earner Relies Upon The Ventures Of Confident And Contented Capital. This Failing Him, His Condition Is Without Alleviation, For He Can Neither Prey On The Misfortune Of Others Nor Hoard His Labor.

The Trusts And Combinations - The Communism Of Pelf - Whose Machinations Have Prevented Us From Reaching The Success We Deserved, Should Not Be Forgotten Nor Forgiven.
