atives In Congress and by your honored
Governor, and I need not tell you how
proud I am to meet my old friend. your
distinguished Senator"
At Dewitt
At De witt the president was greeted
by another gatehring. He said:
II cannot be Indifferent to the very gen.
erous greeting that has been given me
since I have entered your great state. At
every point your people have made me
feel entirely at home. Indeed, there is no
part Of this glorious country where every
citisen may not feel at home, and regret
to leave you at this very Interesting mo-
ment."
At this point the train pulled out, bu. not
before three large punches of flowers had
been thrown at the president.
The Very Best Speech
Cornell university. was SO brief that the
president had only time to say:
II am very glad to meet you ALL"
Tumultuous cheering was indication
enough that the crowd was equally glad.
As Mr.. Mckinley entered his car he re-
marked to Senator Allison: THAT is the
best speech have made yet"
The gathering OF people at Cedar Rapids
broke the days record for numbers and
was somewhat longer than the previous
ones, and was received with evidences OF
the greatest approval by the people.
Some Longer Talks
The president left the train for the first
time at Cedar Rapids. A platform elabor.
ately decorated stood near the track and
from 1t Mr.. Mckinley delivered AN address
which brought cheers from 10000 lusty
throats. He spoke briefly of the country's
returned prosperity, Of the north and south
reunited and In referring to the war he
said:
1--WE accepted war for humanity. We car
accept no terms Of peace which shall not bt
In the interest of humanity. That hostili
ties have ceased upon terms SO satisfactory
to the people Of the United States is cause
for congratulation and calls forth senti.
ments Of pious gratitude to divine Provi
dence Tor those favors which He has mani
tested upon us and Of the appreciation Of
the army and navy for their brilliant vic
tories. While our victories in battle have
added new honors to American valor, the
real honor Is the substantial gain to hu
mantty."
At Boone the president said
This is no time for divided councils; this
Is the solemn hour demanding the highest
wisdom and the best statesmanship Of
every section Of our glorious country The
only great danger for this people Is thai
now and then they become Indifferent. In.

It Is always unfortunate to be Indifferent
to party but 1t is always unfortunate to
be Indifferent to principle. II

thing I have said in these desultory re
marks, 1t would be to remember that at this
critical hour in the nations history W.

war are yet to be written in the articles o1
peace" (Applause.)
The president made short talks during the
evening at Denison. Grand Junction, Lo
