Welcome Home 
The North Shore welcomes Presi- 
dent William Howard Taft back 
home. It is a welcome home even 
though it be for a short while only, 
each year. The entire Shore and for 
that matter the whole state are en- 
thusiastically devoted to the candi- 
dacy of William Howard Taft be- 
cause he stands for loyalty to the 
constitution and fidelity to the in- 
herited institutions of the country 
that have made the United States 
the country that it is and has made 
possible the pursuit of happiness and 
the enjoyment of the liberties of our 
great republic. He has had a hard 
year behind him and has a few hard 
months ahead of him, but beyond 
election day there will be the quiet 
days when he ean really rest after 
the toil and tumult with the con- 
sciousness that his loyalty to the con- 
stitution, his fidelity to true democ- 
racy and his unfailing devotion to 
truth, justice and honor have been 
recognized by the American people 
and sustained by their support at 
the polls. Beverly will be the sum- 
mer capital 1913-17 of the North 
Shore and the State of Massachu- 
setts can have its way. He has well

on our 
‘‘The Party of Conservatism, 
Sanity and Progress’’ 
The cares of state, have deprived 
many functions the honor of the 
presence of our illustrious President, 
but his inability to attend the cere- 
monies incident to the notification of 
Vice-President Sherman of his nom- 
ination by the committee represent- 
ing the republican party, as the can- 
didate of the party again for the 
Vice Presideney, has called forth a 
telegram of congratulation from 
President Taft that is a masterpiece. 
In the volumes written: during the 
stress of this campaign there has not 
appeared a single paragraph that ex- 
presses with such succinetness and 
power the issues at stake. The busy 
man who does not have the time to 
read and study the issues carefully 
will find President Taft’s congratu- 
latory message to Vice President 
Sherman an epitome of. the political 
battle being wage. 
‘‘T am very sorry that the public 
business prevents my presence at the 
ceremonies at which you are to re- 
ceive formal notification of your see- 
ond well-deserved nomination. The 
Republican party continues to be the 
party of the Constitution, the de- 
fender of our guarantees of civil 
liberty, private property and pursuit 
of happiness, and other civil rights, 
the upholder of law and order, the 
opponent of socialism, the sturdy 
supporter of high compensation for 
wage-earners and our industrial sue- 
cess through a protective tariff. I 
am proud again to be a joint stand- 
ard-bearer with you for that party 
of conservatism, sanity and _ pro- 
eress.’’ : 
The closing sentence of this tele- 
cram might well be used as a party 
slogan,—‘‘The Party of Conserva- 
tism, Sanity and Progress.’’ 
A People’s Platform. 
The reelection of Congressman 
Gardner from this district is assured 
by the vigorous and able way in 
which he has championed the true 
causes of progress and maintained 
the honor and integrity of the con- 
stitution as the governing instrument 
of the American people. The United 
States government must be a goy- 
ernment of the people, for the people

and by the people, and such a gov- 
ernment can only be executed by a 
government of laws rather than a 
government of individuals. America 
must be a government of the people 
and not by a person. It was loyalty 
to these principles that precipitated 
the Gardner-Roosevelt controversy. 
Mr. Gardner is opposed to any in 
fringement upon the democratic 
rights of the people under the con- 
stitution. In his contest of loyalty 
to the constitution he has ahenated 
the friendship of T. R., but he has 
gained the support of the thinking 
men of the district. Mr. Gardner has 
not made a mistake in his loyalty to 
the cherished principles of the 
American people. The district agrees 
in a ‘‘firm belief in the foundations of 
our federal constitution is the rock 
from which the lhberal reformer de- 
fies the radical destroyer.’’ He is 
for free hides as against free trade- 
in boots and shoes, for trial by jury 
in contempt (injunction) cases, 
against improper injunctions, against 
the importation of contract labor, 
against unrestricted immigration, 
against duplicity in dealing with his 
constituency, against a laissez faire 
policy relative to the rules of the 
House of Representatives. He has 
worked hard for the development of 
American Merchant Marine, for the- 
anti-rebate law, for the child labor 
investigation, for the sane national 
policy of protection and for the Clay- 
ton anti-injunction bill. Mr. Gard- 
ner seems to be willing to stand by 
his positions for they are sound and 
above petty attacks. 
Representative Gardner, wio is 
one of the few Republicans in the 
House earnestly advocating trust 
legislation, has just introduced two 
bills which he hopes to press next 
December. One of these bills pro- 
vides for the creation of a United 
States ‘‘Corporation Commission,’’ 
and provides for incorporation of 
‘‘Trusts’’ under the laws of the 
United States. The other prevides 
for the authorization ‘‘of the forma- 
tion and organization of corpora- 
tions for the transaction and con- 
duct of commerce among the sever- 
al states and with foreign natious.”’ 
The first named bill is over twenty 
pages long and embodies the ideas 
already outlined in the Transcript, 
expressed by Mr. Gardner in his 
minority report on the Steel investi-
