and that is that it will ever be held BY YOU
sacred to the cause of courage, independence
and true chiva ~, as an orihamme of enthu.
siasm and devotion to all that in the hands of
An American soldier it implies, as q rall,ing

honor. In your hands, we are assured, tina,
it will never know dishonorabe defeat and
nought but honorable treatment. The hand

the political leaders strove TO be Statesmen,
study ing and lsboring, for the country Q
good, and not mere politicians, consider
Ing only party success. Men loved
the coantry then better than
they did party and rings and
cliques, and corruption; and bribery, and
spols we're not even dreamed of. We look
back at those times, and contemplating the
simplicity of manners, the straightforward
esrneslness of purpose for the right, the
scorn and contempt for the wrong which
characterized our fathers, and we sigh as We
think how things have changed, and we ieel
sorrowful to know that our boosted higher
civilization aud greater attachments mentally
as well as in all our surroundings and sd-
vsniages, have brought with them corruption,
slight regard for honor, indifference to hon
esty, contempt of purity because they we're
honester, they we're happier then. Il is true
tina! now we have telegraph lines from one
end of the country TO tho other, and
the earth itself is girdlod with a highway OF
thought that nation may speak unto nation
in the twinkling of an eye; 1t is true that we
have telephones, and railroad lines the trains
on which well nigh annihilate a2ace; and
steamboat and ocean steamers, and oil man
ner Of labor saving machines and improved
implements of every nature and kind we
have schools and colleges Of learning and
OF art; manufactures and great
thriving cities; gas light and
electric lights, immense libraries and all the
facilities and advantages tina, the progress
and development of the years could evolve
from the alembics of mind and matter, aud
in addition to these we have mighty
press-thoussnds Of newspapers in every
section of the country, carrying to The
hesrthstones, the counting rooms, the
work shops of the people, the current news
oi ali the world and teeming with tn,
thoughts and the policies of the master
minds of the land disseminating knowledge
and giving information on all topics and sub
jects, for tho bened! of tho people. Bul
with all these things--all these advantages
none of which our fathers could boast, are
we happier or better people! 1t is la
mentable fact that we are not. 1t is Ia.
inevitable fact that tho more We advance
AID expand, the less of purity there
seems to be in the land, especial
ly in the matters pertaining to the gov.
eminent, to the policies directing its desti,
mics. 1t is lsmentable fact too, that patriot,
ism seems dying out. The birthday OF oul
independence is less and less though. of and
regarded, but for all this, it is day
thst can never die out of the memories
and the hearts of the people entirely,
and 1t furnishes theme that can never
become hackneyed or commonplace. l! will
ever b. theme for story and song and 70,
eloquSnce, and while the stars and stripes
wave, emblem of our freedom, and American
valor lives in history, the Fourth of July
must remain day to be remembered and
revered, while the hallowed memories tina,
cluster about and consecrste it must live
green in the heart of every true AmeridaH
