Bainbridge Colby An intelligent and conscientious opposition is a part of loyalty to country. Bainbridge Colby And one cannot discharge the duty of loyalty without the patient and an open minded study of the institution that marked the country and defined its character. Bainbridge Colby But we must not, if we are loyal, disperse our energies in a partisan warfare that is waged without regard to its consequences to the well being, security, or honor of the country.

Bainbridge Colby It is a high patriotic duty that we support and sustain the men who have been placed in position of difficulty, burden, responsibility, and even danger as the result of our suffrages. Bainbridge Colby Like pictures, men should be judged by their merits and not by their defects. Bainbridge Colby Loyalty will not permit envy, hate, and uncharitableness to creep into our public thinking. Bainbridge Colby That does not mean that we must forego just and fair criticism, or refrain from opposition to policies which are debatable or which do not command our approval.

Bainbridge Colby Thus, only in a hopeful and confident temper, in a proud and constructive spirit, will we rescue the present and safeguard the future of our beloved country. Bainbridge Colby We must be loyal to the forum of our government. Bainbridge Colby We must stifle the voice of hatred and faction. Bainbridge Colby |
