CHICAGO PRESS CLUB.

Hon. ChaunceY M. DepeW Delivers the
Annual Aforementioned by Five
thousand People at the New Audi
sorium.
CHICAGO, June 5.-Chauncey M. Depew
was warmly welcomed by about Eve thousand
people at the Auditorium tonight. Mayor
Cregier introduced him and he spoke in part
as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen: When I received
the invitation of the Press club of Chicago to
deliver its annual address supposed that 1t
desired free and easy chat from layman
upon journalism. It is- the peculiarly of
every individual that he. wishes TO be
thought distinguished for something
| made his reputation, and of every Or
ganization in the professions or the trades
that on their commemorative occasions they
desire to be advised by someone who knows
| infinitely less about their business than they
| do themselves. But I soon discovered that
| your club wanted from me neither crisicism
| nor praise, but the discussion of subject
common to us all.
It is, however, proper for me to remark
| that the rest of the world is entitled to at
| least one day in the year upon the newspa-
| per men. For three hundred and sixty-6ve
days they oracularly direct US in our
| opinions, walk and conversations; they give
US our politics, our estimates of public men
and our views upon all current questions.
The American people are eminently practi.
cal, their wits are sharpened in their OWL
| affairs and their thoughts concentrated and
intent upon that which Immediately inter
ests them. As result the larger part Of
every community have no opinions until
they have read their party and religious
papers. For man like myself, who reads
them all, the most curious of studies is to
gather the reflex of the editors views
in the confident expressions of my friends.
Whatever responsibility-and it is great
may rest upon the lawyer with the liberal
latitude allowed him under his retainer, up
on the preacher with his unrestrained oppor-
tunity to speak, upon the teacher in mould
ing the minds of his students, the
largest responsibility of all rests upon the
journalist. A former generation be.
lisved that liberty of the press would
lead to such license as to endanger pub
lilo morality and destroy private character
They feared that there could be no re
dress from the assaults of the press except by
personal violence or murder. The results Of
liberty far beyond that dreamed of at any
other period, liberty which is curbed by
neither the law of libel nor the verdict o.
juries, have been found in the main entirely
satisfactory. Independence and opportunity
have created journalistic conscience by
which the common view of the press protects
the individual against unjust attack Of any
one of its members

The meeting will close to-day, Friday.
There will be two races, the 2:43 class and
free-for-sll. Besides this there will be a
local wagon race with three entries.
Judging from the entries in the free-for-sll
class at Derby to-day the race will be the
best that was ever decided on the track. As
the purse is free for all horses, both trotters
and PAGERS are entered and several of them
are well known horses with very low records.
The horse who will naturally be rated at the
head of the class is the black PAGER Jewett,
who has the low record of 2:14. He has for
several years been rival of Gossip, jr., in
the fast races on the mile tracks in the grand
circuit. Another Of the low-record flyers Is
the gray PAGER Argyll, whose mark is 2:143(.
Monkey Rolla is the queer sounding name
applied to one of the PAGERS entered for the
purse. he had record for 2:2011 tor q
2:1511. Stanley P. is another of the PAGERS
who made a fast heat at Elm City
park last spring, and has since got q
record of 2:2114.. Joe s., owned by NJ.
Flaherty of Derby, and Victory, owned by
W. 81. Lockwood of Norwalk, are the two
trotters in the class. The gray PAGER En-
quirsr is also on the card for one of the
prizes.
With such a number of very fast horses
| 1t Ia evident that the race will be ono of the
best ever called on that tack.
The gray gelding McMullen Boy, who was
entered, will not trot in the race, which is
| the last one of the meeting.
The first race, the 2:43 class, has six
entries.
