he was tossed back and forth and
banged against the wall and bar he
will never be able to figure out. Mrs.

home. He had as many as five differ

the dilapidation was complete.

no word.
"The campaign must have opened

Mr.. Bowser entered the saloon to find
the committee waiting. There were
also a dozen outsiders. No one had
spent any money for beer. Each one

rose TO his feet as Mr.. Bowser entered.

character and achievement OF the
dead and surviving soldiers Of the
Nnlon to remind our children OF the
unparalleled obligation their fathers
paid TO the God of nations for our
popular liberties and 10 inpiant In the
hearts of our children an apprcicia-
ton OF our country and a love ,or our
free, Democratic institutions.
First: We remember our dead and
surviving heroes because Of what
they were. The firing of TT. Sumptcr
set their patriotism on fire. The flag
of the Union was to them a symbol Of
liberty, civil rights, prosperity and
progress. They were not hirelings
Their hearts were filled with love of
country. The souls were enthused
with an inflexibc. devotion to the ma
tonal constitution. 70 them 1t was
sweet to die for home and native
land.
Second: We remember them be.
cause of what they achieved. They
maintained the integrity of the con.
sttution inviolable; they defended the
dignity of honest labor and made right
cols Industry honorable. Hcnccforth
the men of the South. white and black,
shall cat their bread in the sweat of
their face; they purified domestic and
social life. Henccforth no man can
make chattcl.or merchandise, of his
own children; they established the
principle of universal liberty. Tho
Union army put the nation under y
debt of gratitude that it can never
pay.
what are our special obligations
to the nations heroes, dead and living?
First: Preserve their mcmmory
and make their names immortal by
being held in grateful remembrance.
Second: Maintain, defend and
transmit the heritage they have left
us to all generations.
"rhird: Defend free speech, free in.
quiry, free thought. free press free
church, and free schools maintained
by public moneys. Take away from
all scctarian dcnOminational schools,
and institutions every dollar and ev-
cry cent of State and National ap-
preparation.
"Fourth: Raise the standard of cit.
izenship. Demand of the home and
foreign born educational, character,
and property qualifications as pre-.
requisites to franchise. America for
Americans should be our motto,
"Fifth: Insist upon it that the Ten
words of Moses, and the Sermon on
the mount" be the standard of indivd-
ual and public morality.
sixth: Avoid all needless inter-
ference with the affairs of foreign ma
tions.
Seventh: Expand as fast as God
in his providence says Go forward
and possess Let our Imperialism be
the imperialism of duty, right, purity.
And let our patriotism be always that
of the heart of Jesus who wept over
Jerusalem and died to save all man
kind"
