II Is also his opinion that little coal

for at least years to come, Coal, he
says. can be shipped to Wheeling
cheaper by rail and loaded In barges

the distance from Falrmont. to Wheel

ms Is. the Gictum OF the ages, ana cruel
though il may sound to those whose vsNs OF
history is blinded by the white light Of our
own DAY. the survival Of the fitlest is ma
lures law.
In reviewing Americas share in the
worlds civilization, the eoldest heart must
be thrilled with the glory oi her deeds and
the grandeu> OF the position achieved by
adherence to exalted Ideals. While carving
out for themselves homes in the wilderness,
the American colonists laid deep and broad
the foundations Of nation whose princi-
pies of individual right are almost identical
with those of cur Teutonic ancestors, and
NAV thus Justly claim to be the fruit OF
Anglo-Saxon ideas.
IT was this spirit Of individualism that
brought forth the soldiers and Statesmen OF
the war OF independence. The democracy
that srrope for che recognition Of the figat
of the common man at Runnymede found
worthy successors in men who fought at
Bunker Hill to preserve liberty. Traasplant-
ed TO American soil, the seed of freedom
sent out hopes that took root in the worlds
consciousness, and European constitution
alism. as well as American liberty, was the
kuition.
In its infancy, democracy was content to
maintain the integrity Of the territory Of the
western continent, and TO assert that Eu-
ropean monarchy should be denied the
privilege Of aggression thereon. In its
manhood this same democracy recognizes its
duty and responsibility in the moral uphft
OF manksad and the dissemination OF that
Christian civilization, in which its own
strength rests.

making government the engine rather than
the lash and terror Of the people, was
Inonrished in those dim Teutonic forests
where our ancestors hurled defiance at the
Roman legions, and died for the preserya-
ltion of their ancient privileges. In its fee,
bile childhood it needed isolation for its de-
velopment, and was transplanted by the
hand tba. guides history TO that mist-girdlsd
island, where institutional government had
an unbroken growth until the rights Of the
people at last came into conflict with an
alien Hngly authority, and upon the field OF
IlRnnnymede the vindication Of the claim Of
the common man to life, liberty and the pur-
suit Of happiness was maintained by sturdy
blows and doughty deeds.
In this crucial year Of our nations his
tory, year that marks the departure from
the policy that for century has guided our
1aw-nakers and statesmen, our thoughts re-
cur more and more to the history Of liberty,
and we draw lessons from the progress OF
free government in the civilization OF the
s1brld. Our banner has been planted upon
the farawav islands Of the Pacific and upon
the beautiful tropic lands Of the southern
