Minister Wu, tbe epeaker of tbe day, wag greeted with prolonged applause. He said in part: "China has a great deal to learn from this young republic. I hope, However, that she will learn, not the arts of war, which bave for their sola end and aim the destruction ol life, but tbe arts of peace which make for the happiness and welfare of the people. No nation can become really great by war. True greatness does not lie in the extent of territory nor in tbe strength of battalions, but in the char aoter of the people From personal observation I am inclined to the belief that the American people possess tha silver duties from 5 per cent to 10 per cent aa valorem, and third, the eatab liehment of a minister 6f foreign af fairs, in place of tbe old and cumber some system of the Tsung li Yamun ine demand for tbe retirement of tbe empress dowager ia said to result from the conclusion now generally accepted tnat tbe imperial govern ment of China waa responsible for tbt Boxer uprising. As tbe empress dow sger waa tbe ruling authority of the Imperial government during tbe upria Ing, this responsibilty is brought home directly to her. There ig understood to be no purpose, however, to visit apon ber any personal punishment or indignity, but merely so to foim tbe reconstructed government as to ex clude her from all participation In it. It is deemed advisable for that rea- fan tbat she abould remain permanent ly away from Pekm. and tbat ber ad- users also ghoul 1 be kept away from tbe seat of government. ibe plan of doubling China g cus- omg duties has arisen from the need of finding a source to pay war indemni ties, which the various powerg demand.

Where can you find such vast accumulations of wealth in private bands aa in Ameri ca, with so little attendant evil felt h- society? I bave seen countries where the rich oppress tbe poor and the poor curse the rioh. There money ia the root of all evil. The reverse seems to be the case in America. Here tbe rich use tbe ample means at their disposal for the benefit of tbe people, and the people have good reason to bless tbe rich. In other words, American men of Wealth are public benefactors. I have not far to go for an example. In your midst you have a signal instance of this class of philanthropic men of wealth. This institution is an endur ing monument of tbe founder's munifi cence.

The day will noon come when foreignerg will visit thia city, not so much to see tbe great in dustrial establishments a a to aee tbia institution, which spreads ita influence he far and wide. Thia -it- will ha .r..t. ly famous for the great educator aa for manufacturing center. May tbia standing monument of the founder's benefaction etimulate otbera to follow this noble example. May tbe 'Found er's day,' which I heartily join with yon in celebrating, be ever observed from year to year as an event of na tional interest."
