Washington's Farewell Address.
A vexed question has been raised
concerning the authorship OF this adj
dress. At present it appears that it.
was the joint production OF Washing
ton, Madison and Hamilton. Wash
ington drew up rough draft of it
about the close of his first term, and re-
quested Madison to revise and change
1t where he thought best. He did SO;
but it was not used then. Afterward,
near the close of his second term,
Washington placed it in the hands of
Hamilton, and asked hlm to redress
it. Thus it received the mental strain
OF three OF our greatest Americans,
yet it breathes the spirit and embodies,
the system of policy in which Wash.
ington had acted throughout his adj
ministratlon.
10 quite an extent the counsels and
recommendations Of this farewell ad-
/ dress have been adopted by our ma
tional management; and fortunate
would it have been for America if all
had been adopted and followed, espe-
CHILLY that concerning characterizing
parties by geographical divisions
Northern, Southern, Eastern and
Western The failure to adopt this
has cost this generation alone thou
sands OF most precious lives and mil,
lions OF hard learned wealth, besides
endangering all our most precious
rights and liberties. Chautauauan.
