Farewell Address.

~. V. Willis to the Nonpareil c. s. 3. C.l
A successful speaker or writer must
have sympathetic listeners or readers.
i count upon the sympathy of the
Circle with an idea wish now TO sug-
gest. Custer society is so small and so
chopped mp into classes aud clubs, that
we largely lose our best force. Certain
inferior or vicious influences wieid an
undue power. When the vital force is
taken away from organic matter, the
elements of disintegration and decay
seize the body and have their own way
with it. So when the moral and social
forces lose or lack a vital cohereucy.
then the ruling sentiment in the COM
munity suffers deterioration. Evil en-
ergies flow together and unite by law
of degradation, while the noble powers
have to contend usually in broken
ranks and scattered battailions. The
peryersity Of human nature opposes
social refinement and moral elevation
RS an invasion of its rights, much as q
child resents correction. That portion
of our people who should perceive the
higher mission of society seem willing
to eoncede the field to the less worthy.
without attempting an organized resist
ance. Rarely is there wanting in any
community enough moral power and
social refinement to fix high standard
of conduct and taste, and thus supersede
essential baseness and inferiority. But
these same salutary forces must be in
tegrated. organized. to be effective.
Now think this is just what we lack
yet in Custer. Devotion to self, club OF
elan, is we'll enough in its way. but in
the liberal mind loyalty to the larger
public instantly swallows up every
minor attachment "Not Caesar less
but Rome more" Atpresent, so numer

keeping politics out of city government,

similar institution in Custer would
probably be just as feasible and yalu-
abls in its way. throw out these hints
before the Chautauqua Circle because
this body is in the best position to
sympathize with the suggestion, and, If
thought we'll, TO give it practical in

this liberal notion, but its numbers and

Congressman Watson of Georgia, for
merly democrat of the solid south, is
one of many who have left the old party
because of its faithlessness, its record of
pledges untitled. Watson speaking of
his party's record recently said: "The
congress now sitting is one illustra-
ton. Pledged to reforms, they haye not
reformed. Pledged to economy, they
have not economized. Pledged to legis-
late, they have not iegislated. Extrav-
agance has been the order of the dav.

Lack OF purpose was never 80 clear.
Lack of common business principles
