presented. They have, with the same
mighty power, affirmed their devotion
to law and order. and their undertaking
respect for justice and the courts. They

termination TO support and uphold the

and have thereby given new vigor and
strength TO our free institutions. They
selves to our country and baptized the
cherished ordinances OF free government
with new and holy patriotism. The
victory is not of party or section. but
Of and for the whole American people.
Not the least OF the triumphs OF the
election is the obliteration of sectional
lines in the republic.
We have demonstrated to the world
that we are a reunited people In purpose
as I'm name. We have manifested in the
great cause the spirit OF fraternity and
brotherhood that should always char
acterize our common and equal citizen
ship. and have proven conclusively that
in country of equal privileges and
equal opportunity. the insidious doctrine
OF hate or Of class or sectional distinc-
tons cannot prevail Let u.s. as Ameri-
cans, straighawny devote our services
To the upbuilding OF America; to the
peace, honor and glory of our common

longer divide or rack the public mind;
nor the zeal or temper of either side
deter any citizen from patriotic devotion
To the good OF ALL"

from Colonel Mutt of Nashville, saying |

rality. This was something OF a surprise, |
in view OF the general reports on that |
state, although an earlier dispatch from |
another source stated that Tennessee /
would be claimed for Mckinley.
