At the monument an ample thea

SENATOR TURrIE
next delivered the Grafton Of the |
day. The speaker gave n running |
review OF HENDRICKS life, and, con-
corning his position during the civil |
war, referred to the letter Hendricks 1
wrote tn some OF his constituents in
tine eighth month Of the war, in
which lee said, in part: ''He re-
gaTded IL the duty Of the citizens OF /
Indiana to respect and maintain
the authority Of the general govern
ment, and TO give honest and earnest
support 10 the prosecution Of the
war until, in the prOvidences Of
God, it may he brought 10 an hon.
Orable conclusion and the blessings |
of Ueace be restored 10 the country, |
pOstpOning until that time all con-
trOversy relating TO CAUSES and re-
spousibilities therefor"
"Of the same tenor" added |
Turpie, "were his numerous adj
dresses to the people In the political
campaign Of lS62, which was i'm
mediately preceding his election to |
the Senate. During his term as
senator he constantly acted and |
voted in aid OF the government in |
every measure looking to the sup
pression Of armed instruction, al |
ways reserving the right TO freely |
discuss the civil policy Of the adj
ministration."
Speaking OF the recoDst ructiOn |
period, Turpie said that Mr.. Hen
bricks took his position in the words: !
az desire this TO be Union in form, |
under the Constitution and in fact |
by harmony of the people Of the |
North and South. ] deny that at |
the close OF the war there were no |
State governments in the Southern |
States. The constitution Of State |
once admitted becomes part Of
THE NATIONAL COMPACT.
deny that the people Of that State
have a right to destroy It's govern
ment and thus cease to be within
the Union. l deny that n conven-
ton, legislature or any other assem-
bly, whatever can voluntarily ter
inmate the existence Of their State
government and thus cut of their |
connections with the Federal Union.
"This doctrine, !" said Turpie, from
the very day and hour Of its utter
ance, was rejected with every cpl
tibet Of reproach. IL was beaten,
submerged by large majorities in
both Houses Of Congress, decried as
an unconditional surrender to the
enemy, Hendricks lived 10 see this
principle, once so much denounced, |
universally approved; to see this po-
licy CT reconstruction adopted; to |
Iehold these tenets sanctioned and /
declared to be the Law Of the land by /
its highest tribunal. the Supreme
Court Of the United States. III
Webster be styled the exp0under Of
the Constitution, the old Constitu-
ton, with its half truths and COM
promises upon all subjects but those
named therein, Hendricks may be
as justly called the expounder Of the
new. IL the one is known as the
cnnstTuctiOnist, the other viii be
known as the rec0nstructiOnist Of
the ase-as true an interpreter Of
the Constitution as amended and Of
the nature and character Of the
Union thus restored and re-estab-
llshed amid the clangUr OF arms, ere
the
SHOUTING AND THUNDER
Of the embattled hosts had scarcely
died away"
At the conclusion Of tho address
brief remarks we're made by Gov
errors Hill, Francis and Campbell,
and after benediction by Bishop
Chatard the assembly adjourned.
Letters Of regret were received
from President Harrison, who said
his public duties would prevent his
attendance. From General Sher-
man, who said his previous engage
ments for July would preclude his
attendance, and from ex-President
Cleveland, who said in part: at IS
useless, hope, 20 assure you OF the
satisfaction il would afford me 10
testify my respect and affection for
your distinguished feliow-towns-
man by joining those who win
gather 10 his memory on the occa-
sion you contemplate. His emin-
ent public service and his faithful
discharge of many and important
official duties render the common.
