sAnd this brings me to what Lincoln, in his
Gettysburg address. called our unfinished
work The great Republic. for whose re-
Mobilization the heroes whose graves we to-
day decorate, died, is by no means a perfect
government and by no means free from
great and present dangers. In 1889 our
United States Constitution embodied all the
political science then known but as in
trument for carrying out the will of the
people II is to-day a lamentable failure. 1t
resembles the old-fashioned flint lock mus
ket with which our independence was
gloriously won, rather than the present
smokeless. breach-loading rifle. 1t is not
once in ten years that the three constitu-
tional bodies whose consent is necessary to
carry out the peoples will into a federal
law, are in harmony. n half-doZen senators
to-day can prevent the will Of the people,
as expressed in the great election OF No
vember 1886 from being enacted into law.
To put IL plainly, for some times blunt
words are best, our federal machinery for
making laws is ali out of date. The
speaker of our House of Representatives
officially. not personally, Is more of an au-
tocrat than the Car of the Russias. 1t
was only last year that the Supreme Court
of the United States, by reason of one
Judge changing his vote. defeated the wiz
OF the people-deprVed this government OF
a revenue of thirty millions per annum-and
we still continue the old oppressive system
of taxing for federal purposes, the poor in
stead OF the rich.
Then again we are weakening and impov-
erlshing our hfe's blood by indscriminate
immigration. While we welcome to our
shores all worthy foreigners, we do not
want. and ought never TO consent to re-
ceive, the pauperage, the crime and the
ignorance of the old world our country is
too glorious fact TO be made a dumping
ground for Europe or Asia or
Africa our corporate power and
combined wealth are quite as dan
gerous to-day as slavery was forty
years ago. When a dozen men can fix the
price Of coal. of wheat. of sugar. of petro-
leum and levy a tax upon mill on families,
for their personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT, II is
time TO call q halt When one of a half
