to 1 who are born of blood brought here since the
this great state acros the plains and tnrougn
dangerous mountain passes. Who fought the
Indians, snows, cold and difficulty and made
this a safer place in which to live. Who hew
ed logs and made homes, who cleared land and
made it laugh with flowers, grasses and life-sustaining
grains.
I thank the men who leveled hills, filled waste
places and made good roads which are monu
ments to their builders. I thark the men who
spent their lives in the service of their country,
carrying the mails across the unchartered
routes to distant hamlets out on the firing line
of civilization. For the men who passed cheer
less nights on lonely stage-coa'.hcs that loved
ones might meet and that the world's happen
ings might he carried to them and life be made
fuller and better.
1 thank the teachers who left profitable cal
lings, in life to educate, inspire and lead the
youth of the early days, and the preachers who
rode from house to house, from community to
community preaching the gospel of Christ,
asking little, doing much. I thank the early
settlers who in their wisdom provided for
schools and churches, which serve as powers
for good, and which are now ours to enjoy. And
especially for dreaming of a college where girls
and boys would study, learn and work in joy.
1 am thankful to those who li v'e in this com
munity and who sneak well of it. lo the men
and women who give of their time and money
that we may hoar good and gieat men speak
from their hearts, that we can delight and en
joy hearing the great musicians of the state
and country, and thus grow strong, broadened
and cultured, my thanks go out. I am thankful
that I live i i:ion:r businessmen who regard
honesty as a business asset and where I know
whatever 1 buy u worth the money. For the
association with those with whom I labor in
I tho community, for all their help, kindness and
sympathy am 1 deeply thanklul.
1 thank the thinkers, the poets, the painters,
the singers, the inventors, the business men
who have live.l and are living all over the
world. I thank He njainan Franklin for his
mirth, persish nee and his common-sense. I
thank Emerson I'or light, power and for incur

revolution, than there are descendants of the
revolutionists. If the descendants of the revo
lutionary blood had to do all the fighting there
would be a lot of fighting left undone.
One is surprised that a man of Champ Clark's
intelligence should base the safety of this coun
try on the original stock. The stock that has
been added since has done a great deal for the
United States. The best mechanics in all the
factories of the United States today are men
who have come here recently. One man who
knows made the statement that If the German
element alone were withdrawn, one half of the
fine-work factories of the country would be
without competent mechanics. It was a Ger
man-American who gave this country the
Mergenthaler linotype machine, an invention
which has revolutionized the art of printing
and multiplied the intelligence of the world two
fold. It was a Swedish-American who gave
this country the Monitor which revolutionized
naval warfare and helped to decide the issues
of our civil war. Our army and navy lists are
filled with the names of "foreigners," names
added to this nation long after the revolution.
For Mr. Clark to impose on the "men born of
the blood of the revolution" the task of saving
this country against foreign invasions is a
piece of characteristic bombast, nothing more.
Nor is it true that the United States could
defy the whole world. If the whole world
should combine against us we would not last
long. In that event our navy would be destroy
ed in a week's time and the soldiers of the
Orient and of Europe would overrun the United
States and water their horses in the Mississippi,
instead of the Ohio- We may be mighty, but
Mr. Clark makes us out to be fools. Nor is
there any occasion to contemplate such an
emergency. The world is not going to be com
bined against us, if we discharge nobly our mis
sion in the world. Boasting that we can lick
everybody will not insure us peace, but attend
ing to our own business, without hostility to
any others, will maintain both peace and honor
for us and out of peace and honor will come
national glory and achievement.

Who Represents God on Earth?
In Chicago it has been established that in
order to pose as a "divine healer" one must have
very long whiskers. In other words, such fakes
must be covered up. But as long as human
beings are credulous they will be imposed upon
by all sorts of men who pretend to have some
unseen connections with God. In Europe even
war-lords are fighting their men to the death
on such presumptions. It will take humanity
a long time to come into the realization that to
God all men look alike and that He has given
no favors that He has not bestowed on all.
God at least is impartial, as He is with his sun
shine and his rain.
He comes nearest toGodlikeness who developes
all his powers along the highest lines, and the
highest lines of human developemnt are in
godness and helpfulness for one's fellow men.
