Humble Men Who Labor Are Ameriee’e M ight, 8 a y t Wilson. In one of bis recent addressee Gov ernor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey paid an eloquent tribute to the toiling millions whose labor has given Amer ica Its place among the nations. He said: “You know how It thrills onr blood sometimes to see how all the nations of the earth wait to see what America Is going to do with her power—her physical power—her enormous re sources, her enormous wealth, her pow er to levy Innumerable armies and build up armaments which might con quer the world. “But what has made ns strong? The toll of millions of men. ibe toil of men who do not boast, who are Inconspic uous. but who live their lives humbly from day to day. and this great body of workers, this great body of tollers, constitutes the might of America. “What Is the manifest duty of all statesmanship, therefore? It Is to see that this great body of men who con stitute the strength of America are properly dealt with by the laws and properly nurtured and taken care of by the policy of the country. “Well, what binders, what stands In the way? Why. you know that ev erything really worth discussing cornea to the question of the cor|»oratious.

The casualties of the insurrectos and federals are not known, hut five people on the American side of the line were killed and at least 12 oth ers wounded.

He said he believed reciprocity the best thing for the whole country. Tho grange delegates expressed a positive opinion th at the treaty would cheapen the prices of their products and work them injury. The president responded by saying that he would certainly be op posed to anything th at woull injure tho farmer, but was blunt in expressing the opinion that the delegates were in error.
