Considering the nature of the

must obviously be desirable for the
medical profession and the public to
be assured authoritatively that the
working of these Springs is carried
on in a scientific manner, and not
merely on commercial lines, and
with this view the vi Hunyadi
Springs, from which "Apenta" Wa

The annual reception given by the
Young Mems Christian Association to
members OF Stannard Post and Sons of

post rooms. The reception was one of the
pleasantest events of the day and was

GOV. DILLINGHAM; ADDRESS.
am glad to be able to help carry on and
/ am glad to be able to help carry on ana
keep alive the enthusiasm and patriotism
connected with Memorial day. When !
think of our army l am hlled
with admiration for the men who fought
and bled in the war of the rebellion. 1t
was an army made up of citizens, not
following wildly; 1t was not an army OF
men rushing into the battle field without
elaboration. 1t was an army made up OF
thinking men and as we look back we see
them coming from every State and terri
tory of all nationalties. These men If
they were Irish remembered their coun-
try; If they were Germans they did not
forget their fatherland; If they were Ro-
man Catholics they did not forget their
church; If they were Protcstants they
never forgot their creed. They met a
common danger and marched together
meeting the same sacrifices and suffering
the same fate. 1t was for n government of
the people, for the people and by the peo-
pie.
l have been thinking while talking to
freedom that has come to the masses. |
was riding three or four years ago from
Chicago to Omaha with Rev. DR. Moulton
of England, who had just visited Boston
and the same week viewed the wonders of
the famous Niagara. lie had also been to
Chicago and when he said Chicago his
face filled with wonder and amazemcnt.
He said do you know what this coun-
try has accomplishment city of such
vast wealth and bigger than anything in
England except it be London, bigger than
anything In France, except 1t be Paris,
bigger than anything in Germany except il
be Berlin. 1t seems like dream to us cross
the ocean that in so short period a city
of such proportions should be built in the
centre of a vast prairie. II is simply the
result of the wonderful individuality
characteristic of the American people.
Look at Illinois, only 10 years old and
think of her wonderful development, YER
mont was the first State admitted
to the ssterhood of States and Ken
/ look to that great State ! am reminded
of two great men. One was given by the
State of Vermont and bore the name of
Douglass. The second one was given by
the State of Kentucy and in the clash of
their mighty intelects they set to work and
opened the eyes of the North. so that In
1856 the North was aroused at the attitude
of tho South and the purposes of
slave power What I have said in relation
to those matters shows that our men did
their own thinking You will see how
thoughtfully how wisely they cared for
every interest Of liberty. Why Is it we have
such individuality? 1t Is a matter OF evo-
luton There has been no more princely
and noble sentiment than that which char
acterized our war. Christianity was not
recommended as the moral force in early
history as 1t Is to-day, the world has made
progress and the idea of God has grown
