About This Book

The address frames the 1912 contest as a struggle of principles rather than personalities, advocating progressive Republicanism and the application of Lincoln-era democratic ideals to contemporary issues. It criticizes alliances with party bosses and corrupt figures, recounts campaign efforts against such influence, contrasts supporters of rival camps, and urges Massachusetts citizens to lead a difficult reform fight to limit corporate and machine power and restore devoted public service.
