Excerpt from The Conservative Advocate: A Book of Biographies of Connecticut's Successful Men With Essays on Conservatism In publishing biographies the difficulty always arises in getting the co-operation and support of men who belong in a book of this nature. This little volume contains, however, a large number of sketches, in condensed form, of some of the most successful men in the State. Some of these are prominent politically, others are Captains of Industry, but, in whatever vocation their success may lie, the majority attribute the same to their conservative methods. This book not only contains biographical sketches of some of our highest types of American citizenship, but essays by some of the most brilliant and talented men in the State, on the one theme - Conservatism. My object in combining biographical and educational features into one book has been, on the one hand, to give Labor the benefit of suggestions made by the most conservative men, on the other hand, to show them, through these biographical sketches, the successful career of men whose success has been due to conservatism. One of the most important and most serious topics of the day is the question of how Capital and Labor may be drawn into closer touch with one another. The one reply of all to whom this question has been put has been, To have not only Labor be conservative, but Capital as well.
