Norw,alk Conn,
My Dear Mr. Hill:
I In discussing your candidacy with
;vsrious people in the county. I have
learned the following, which seams of
some value:
In the first place, a large number of
thinking men, and particularly the bus-
inessand werkinnlen, intend to 'vote
for you for the following reasons:
They want to have as their represen-
tative in Washington one in whose ill-
tegrity and common sense- they can
trust. That you are a Republics); and
a protectionist has weight with a cer-
tain large number, .but that both as
protectionist and so a Republican. you
are going to exercise your best busi-
ness judgment for theIgood of your
constituency and thenatlon. has great-
or weight. They believe you are com-
mitted to sound financial practice, that
you not only stood for it in the past
regardless of. political attenuation.-
but that you have had an experienced
hand in financial legislation for many
years, and have been a strong oppo-
nent of all schemes to debué either
the money or the financial honor of the
cobntry. For this ressoutbey believe
time. Regarding the tsrlif. they feel
that while you are I. protectionist. you
will not fsvor privilege and they only
regret that the present Idmlniltntlou
would premt the smut Will-I
tariff out of politics. White the!”
you can be of 'greatIaId at the present ‘
in. There probably has never been at
time in the item of the country shell
we had to proceed more cautiously-
than at present and the lay-en of Re! .
Public“ wisdom is exacted oi you.
in this connection anything that can
be done to assist the railroads to help -1
themselves will be of inestimable value ~i .
:to the business of the whole country. ,_ .
I We realize that your opportunities
.must as limited by the political com-
:plexion of the House, but that even it '
1 :the Democrats retain the majority!
Euler‘s, you still have large opportunl-
ties of usefulness to your constituents. . .

Isound measures which are now pro-
posed.
It is superfluous to write that we all ‘
feel that there Is little, If any. excuse ‘-
for war taxes. sounded—that there .
is every reason for economy. not only 1 ,
Democratic economy. but Republican 7
.economy, thrift and careful expendi- \ I
tore.
There is another thing that I believe? ~
many of your constituents are inter-f ,
lasted in. They would be glad to supoi _
port the President's foreign peace pol-E '
icy. and only so much as is consistent. "'
with reason. of his peculiar and incou- ‘
sistent attitude towards Mexico:
I Iain reminded here of what John. . .
Bright said of John Stewart Mill, “The
trouble with these great thinkers is
that they so often think wrongJI'
We are all Idealists to a more or less
degree. and this idealism you should
recognize to be as much a part of the“
Republican party as that of any other
party. it includes a desire to have
proper child labor laws, proper health
laws, and proper laws for the protec-
tion of those least able to protect them-
selves. In other words. we must all
be progressive in so for as it is for the
best interests of the majority, and it Is
expected of you.
I behave that the confidence of so
many thoughtful men will not only
help to elect you. but will add to Your
‘usel’uluess when elected .1
