Our national life is rooted in the idea
that every mans life is of value in itself
OF worth to him, and of most value tn ths
state when made of most worth to him
himself. The keynote of Congregational
Ism, as of Americanism, is found in the
fullest and highest development of the in
dlvidual man and woman. in the strength
enlns or those sacred bases of personality,
on which rests the fabric of the nation
Inc strength of our national life depends
upon the faithfulness with which we hold
by the maxim, see that thou regard every
man as having in himself in the deyeIop-
ment OF his own life. the true object and
end OF his being. so far as his relations with
you are concerned
In the light of this principle only can
there be wise adjustment of the Conflicting
claims and the vexed relations of labor and
capital. What capital shall do with the la
borer Is not mere question of dollars and
cents: 1t Is a question of Responsible ner
sons dealing with the essential dignity Of
manhood in their brother men. The sacred
element of personality enters into the day.s
labor. 10Y

body Of men composed Of all classes and profess

gion and politics. and existing In every State OF
the Union, who come together and exhibit among
themselves the utmost harmony Of freedom and
action. No word Of opprobrium escapes from the
lips OF any to insult and wound the feelings
of another. No fierce anathema Of sections is
heard No extravaganza Is INDUCED in. Every
thing is quiet. Centlemanly respectful digniied
The bitterest political enemies meet face TO face

that they do not belong TO the same party. Re

secret of their unanlmity. OF their harmony. Of
their brotherly love. Of the conservative front
