"Our Flag a Sacred Trust" !"

Although but little more than three-fourths
of century has rolled away since the Amer
ican flag was unfurled to the breeze of heaven,
it rivals in glory and splendor those OF the
most powerful nations. Born in the midst OF
internal strife, and beset on every hand by
cunning and vindctive enemy, it struggled
valiantly through all this mighty opposition,
and arose in all the pride and beauty of con
scious right to its place among the standards
of the earth. And it has maintained the po-
sition it then assumed with undaunted firm
ness and unsullied honor. We challenge the
World to produce its equal. Even Rome, once
the mistress of the world" but now " the
Niobe of nations" deserves not that her ban
