chairman and the first speaker was j. G..
Tate of Nebraska, who said that some Of

they knew that the heads of the people of
the west were as large as the mountains
surrounding this valley, and their generous
hospitality as pure as the waters Of the
mountain streams.

no poorhouse in the land holds the widow
or orphans of buried Workman, and that
the aid extended TO them is not received as
q charity but as gift.
