P4pI T. smoke rs follows: Ladies and
.,anflernen-I am sure that under this
5;cb snt1nn sun, and in this rich and
prosperous State, You Will expect
from me to-day nothing but
cords Of congratulation, and if there
~ a-y, one snot. within the limits of the
TINTED states which may challenge all
others IN prosperity, contentment and
general happiness, It must be Worces-
Ter. in the State of Massachusetts. zap
Diause.) We are in the habit, IN our
mind without looking closely at figures,
to think some rich sections OF Europe,
as far more populouS than any sections
we have in this country, but in the great
United Kingdom Of Great Britain and
Ireland there is not as dense popula-
ton rs in the State of Massachusetts.
From this point to the sea there Is not
in the crowded kingdom of Belgium not
IN that hive of industry, Holland, so
dense a population as you, on this
ground, represent to-day. And when
you come TO compare the comfort,
thrift and general prosperity of the en-
tire people there IS not, perhaps,
on this cycling globe, a commu-
nifty that can stand comparison.
Out west, in those rich lands, that
Laugh with crop when tickled with a
hoe, !" in that "boundless contiguity'' of
space which the agricultural district
stretches from the crest of the Alleg-
henys TO the great plains, it would be
surprise to them, if it is not to you, that
this County OF Worcester, out OF LOO
and odd counties that make
up all of the States, that this
County of Worcester is the fifteenth
in the whole of the United States, in the
yalue of its agricultural products. And,
what is more surprising, that, standing
in this high rank in agricultural indus
Try and agricultural product, 1t stands
still higher in mechanical industry and
the product of manufactures. For in
that great list it stands the tenth in the
United States, so that, when you come
to estimate s., 800 coo, 0O0 the product of
manufactures in a single year in
these United States, you can see
what must be magnificent prosperity
of this county, that it should stand
fifteenth ia one list and tenth i'll the
other. Gentlemen, this county has
been long noted, been long known. It
i the county best known in the State,
So widely known throughout the ma
lion, and ii it were to be presented, or If
any county i'll this country were to be
presented as one eXemplar on the Illus
schools and free education could do, there
would be one voice in favor of present
ing the County of Worcester as that ex-
emplar. (Applause.) We are sometimes
& little jealous of you in Massachusetts,
prosperity. (Laughter.) But, outside
and beyond that jealousy, | am here to
say, on behalf of the State which was
part of the old commonwealth, that for
The County of Worcester, for the
STATE of Massachusetts,, no other
feeling is entertained than that of pro-
found respect, admiration and honor.
Enthusiastic cheers.) Thanking you,
gentlemen. for the very cordial and
noSpitable reception which has been
made so agreeable to-day, and wishing
You an abundant increase of the great
prosperity which surrounds YOU, bid
YOU cordial farewell. (Applause.)
