where the purport OF what understand to

able to do so and the young school
children and the lsborers and capitalists and
men Of business this one great fact, and that
is th At in this free country We are all thor

ness of the whole man. If any section of
the country is crippled then the whole coun-

society is oppressed or suffers injustice, the
with it, necessarily the great body of our
citizens, laboring men. The general pros
perity Of the country rests more with the
prosperity of the lsborers than With any
other one class therefore, my friends, what
our pleasure, whatever may be remembered
and whatever may be forgotten, We should
not fail to remember that We shall not forget
the laborers of the country, and that 90 large

In talking in this way don't let anyone mis-.
understand me. say that in the long run
what is good for the capitalist. what is good
for business, what is good for the laborer, is
good for all the rest. a., rr1
