were born in Seattle" Continuing. he
said in part: II will speak not about the
future to you. nor the purpose Of the
past. but will say a few words to you on
the object Of the city in providing this
education for you. Is Il that knowledge
might be slori1ed and disseminated among
you, or that the teachers might get
chance to earn their magnificent salar-
les? Hardly. The true purpose OF the
state and the city in supporting educa-
tionai institutions for you, is that they
may rid themselves of all disorder, and
inculcate obedience 10 the law, which is
only enlightened self-interest.
THE motive is the love of the country,
for her children, her pride in her own pros
perity and welfare, in short, conscien-
tious regard for the rights and privileges
OF her citizens.
I'm the United States our rights are
not bought or sold, but have come to us
only by desperate struggles and conscien-
tious labors In the past. There are other
battles more trying than those fought by
patriots. testing more deeply the man
hood and honor of men. and these take
place in our legislative halls and court
rooms.
After the independence OF our country
had been won In the war of the revoiu-
ton, n greater struggle was yet to prove
the strength and patriotism of the Amer
lean people. State was arrayed against
state, section against section, and
the task. which was greater than
any that had preceded during the
fight for liberty was to weld these dis
organized units into n lasting union.
Peace hath her victories as well as
war; When the constitution was endan-
gered one arose whose struggle was as
trying and as great as that endured by
any warrior. He was Chief Justice Mar
shall, the firmest advocate. and the most
lucid expounder OF the constitution. or
course, IL is not possible for all OF you
young men to rise to his exalted position:
but you should be the repositories or
knowledge and the opponents OF peace.
