CHARACTER OF COLUMBUS.
OF Invincible Genius and Confidence in
His Own Abilities.

Neither realism nor romance furnishes a
more striking and picturesque figure than that
of Christopher Columbus. The mystery about
his origin heightens the charms of his story
That he came from among the toilers of his
time is in harmony with the struggles of our
period. Forty four authentic portraits of him
have descended to us, and no two of them are
counterfeits of the same person. Each repre-
septs a character distinct as its canvas
Strength and weakness, intellectually and
stupidity, high moral purpose and brutal
ferocity, purity and hcentiousness, the dreamer
and the miser, the pirate and the puritan, are
the types from which may select our hero

What the Orator Thinks of the Discoverer
The speaker then proceeded to outline the
lie of Columbus. He said he was a skillful and
intrepid mariner, with an unQunchable
thirst for adventure and search. He dared to
write, THAT Is a lie" on the margain of nearly
every page of the travels of Marco Polo. His
efforts to secure means to test the truth of his
theories by winning the support of kings
against the hostility of the church were
sketched in burning eloquence. He never
doubted his ability to succeed in his undertak-

From Feudaiism to Freedom.
THE anarchy and chaos which followed the
breaking up of the Roman empire necessarily
produced the feudal system. The people, pre-
ferring slavery to annihilation by robber
chiefs, became the vassals of territorial lords.
The reign of physical force is one of perpetual
struggle for the mastery. Power which rests
upon the sword neither shares nor limits its
authority. The king destroyed the lords, and
the monarchy succeeded feudalism- Neither
