BRADLEY GIVES VIEWS AS
CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS.
(Political Advortisoniont.)
Having on tor od tho race for Con
gress in tho Third Congressional
District, 1 feel that it is due tho peo
ple ol' tl?e district that 1 state the rea
sons ?md motives that actuate mo in
olToi'ing, and to givo my v ows on
snell national issues as are to-day bo
fore the American peoplo.
.Strictly speaking, as between Re
publicanism und Democracy, Ibero is
no real issue except that which has
been cooked up by tho Republicans
in opposition to tho peace treaty and
the League ol' Nations. Of their in
consistency, to say nothing of their
unreasonable and vindictive hate of
the President, 1 will have moro to say
later in the campaign. Suillco it to
say here that their opposition was
"conceivod in sin and born in Iniqui
ty," and for cold, calculating infamy
of execution would do credit to his
Satanic .Majesty himself.
Hut tho Republican party was in
desperate straits, and an issuo had to
be made, even at the cost of personal
honor of Its leaders and the sacrifice
of American integrity. So thorough
ly has the Democratic party per
formed its pledges to tho peoplo, In
tho passage of the F?deral Rosorve
Act, tho Land Loan Ac!, In the equit
able Tariff Act. the Income Tax Act
and numerous other ants that direct
ly affect the welfare of Hie people,
thal the Republicans, even with con
scienceless representation itt Con
gress, have not had the courage to
attack them on the ove of a Presi
dential election. I hope to go Into
the merits of these various acts in the
course of the Congressional cam
paign, showing wherein their enact
ment was immediately beneficial to
Hie masses. Inasmuch as Mr. Domi
nick was not in Congress when these
acts-wore passed, he has no record in
Congress touching thom (hat wo may
refer to.
.Mr. Dominick's Record.
lt so happens, however, that the
most momentous question with which
any nation has ever been confronted
came up for consideration in Con
gress during Mr. Dominick's encum
honcy, and he has left his record, by
which Hie people o? the Third Con
gressional District may fairly Judge
of his qualifications for future sor
vice.
In discussing this record it is my
purpose and desire to adhere strictly
I to the record. 1 shall not wilfully
misrepresent any part of it. but will
throw such lights on the effects of
his votes as it seems to me a fair
interpretation will justify, i do not
impugn Mr. Dominick's motives, hut
in Hie light of subsequent events I
do mest seriously question his judg
ment as a legislator. I cannot believe
thal on those measures affecting this
country's welfare, prior to and during
thc World War Mr. Dominick's votes
in Congress were in accord with tho
sentiment of the people of his State
or his nation. 1 know that they were
not in harmony with the majority of
his associates in Congress, without
regard to party, and I know that he
stood alono in his State delegation
and with a puny minority of his own
party in Congress. In opposition to
the measures proposed by tho Presi
dent in preparation for and prosecu
tion of the World War.
We are familiar with the inci
dents leading up to tho World War.
We recall how the Gorman consul,
while our guest in the very capital of
our nation, plotted with Mexico and
indirectly with Japan to involve us
In war with tho latter nation and to
prepare the way for Invasion of this
country through Mexico. Wo recall
how German submarines patrolled
our very coasts in their murderous
lust, and, informen* by German spies
in our midst, sought out and sank
our ships, thus consigning our wo
men and innocent children to watery
graves. We recall the Kaiser's luso
lenco when we protested, and his
banter to our consui that America's
day was coming.
Thoro were many who criticised
President Wilson for delaying en
trance into the war. They did not
know how his great heart, foresee
ing its awful consequences, withheld
his sanction until the Allies, exhaust
ed, confessed themselves all but con
quered, and the shadow of tho Kai
ser, with all of its baleful blackness,
was over our own land. Fow there
were who did not soo that the very
independence of our nation was
threatened. Few indeed were the
repr?sent?tes in Congress who did
not soo it. and yet Mr. Dominick did
not see it.
On April r>th, 1017, a resolution
was Introduced in Congress declar
ing that Gormany had brought on a
stato of war with this country. There
were 37? votes for it and 50 votes
against it, Mr. Dominick voting "No"
despite tho overwhelming support of
tho measure hy his own party, the
otherwise solid support of it by tho
other representatives of his own
State, and the ali hut unanimous
support of it even by Hie Republi
cans.
Tho country was called to arms,
and the spirit of the nation at once
breathed forth as with the breath of
a Titan a challenge, to the insolence
of (he Kaiser and to all of his blood
bespattered hoards.
Does anybody now believe that
when our young women, tho minis
tering angels of mercy, offered their
services to tim cause, they felt that
they were .serving in an unjust
causu? Does anybody now believe
that when our mothers offered their
sons on the altar of their country
that tbey fell that they were making
an unholy sacrifico? ls it not now
plain rtuit. but. for that sacrifice, the
world would long ago have had but
ono mristor, and lu the tyrant of au
tocracy? And If a majority of Mr.
Dominick's associate's in Congross
had voled as ho did, unquestionably
tho worst of our forebodings would
have happened.
War was declared. The Alllos In
desperation sent their ropresonta
tlvoe to us to urge us to sond help
at once, or all was lost. Wo had a
moro hanflful of men-about a'hun
dred thousand-drillod and equip
ped. To hive raised an ndoquato vol
unteer army. Judging from our ox
porlonco in Mexico, would have taken
full three years, int could have boon
dono at all. France was bled white,
to use tho Kaiser's own expression;
Halg's bach was against th? wall;
Italy was retreating before the Aus
trians; Russia was paralyzed, and
Belgium and Boland lay bleeding at
the Kaiser's feet. The fatal end seem
ed distant, not years, but months, and
the Kaiser laughed at our supposed
Impotency, thinking that" we would
depend upon tho slow process of vol
unteering, while his conquering ann
ies proceeded to grind tho life out of
lils enemies.
Tho Draft Act.
But h?re again tho groat wisdom
of our President foresaw tho all but
superhuman task, and set In motion
that agency which wrought a mira
do. Ile proposed Hie straight con
scription draft act,which passed Con
gress by a volo of 397 to 24. Mr.
Dominick voted "No"' with 23 of his
associates.
Viewed in tho light of subsequent
events, the impartial selection of rich
and poor aliko, tho all but miracu
lous massing of millions of mon In an
Incredibly short Hmo and tho produc
tion of tho most offectlve army that
over wrested victory from defeat,
who will say that Mr. Dominick's
Judgment wns not In error when he
voted against the draft?
Again Votes "No."
Again, when our country was
launched on a poUcy of war, and
German spies were in every city and
hamlet, in the army, in tho navy, in
tho very olllccs in Washington; when
such tremendous newspaper syndi
cates as the Hearst papers were im
peding tho government's efforts and
giving out information that would
benefit the enemy, an amendment to
the espionage act was proposed in
Congress, known as tho "Gard"
amendment, which proposed to limit
and to punish the activities of those
papers willoh were avowedly against
the war and against the President's
conduct of it. On this tho vote stood
'-272 for and 128 against. Mr. Domi
nick voted with the minority.
I might mention the prohibition
hill for the conservation of food, the
censorship bill and other bills favor
ed by the administration as war
measures and opposed by Mr. Domi
nick, but su (Detent has been said to
indicate my meaning when 1 say that
Mr. Dominick's votes In Congress in
the most vital period of our national
history were out of accord with tho
majority of his Democratic associ
ates in Congress, and, as I believe,
did not reflec{ the sentiment of lils
home State.
In the oath prescribed for candi
didates for Congress and for the lTni
tcd States Senate by our State Demo
cratic Convention, we find the fol
lowing: "I will support tho political
principles of the Democratic party
during the term of oflVe for which 1
may be elected and work In accord
with my Democratic associates in
Congress on all party questions."
The purpose of this oath is evident
and would certainly call for the most
deliberate consideration by a legisla
tor before casting his voto against a
majority of his legislative associates
on a question that involves the very
destiny of our nation.
If, as many people believe, Mr.
Dominick committed serious error of
judgment in the crucial period of
war, what assurance have we that he
may not commit equally as serious
errors of judgment in tho legislation
necessary for reconstruction? Owing
to the upsetting effects of tho war, it
is possible that our tariff laws will
have to be seriously revised, and. In
a hundred ways tho Interests of this
country will have to be safeguarded
in treaty relations. Inasmuch as Mr.
Dominick was not in Congress at the
limo the tariff la\v was passod, wc
have no way of knowing his views
thereon, and, seen in tho light of his
votes on war measures, wo may not
conclude with any cortainty that his
views on tariff revision will ho In ac
cord with his Democratic associates
i in Congress.
