The speaker quoted a 1 statement of Washingtons: There is no one who adores and acknowledges l the invisible hand that has guarded the l affairs of nations, but who must ac- i kowledee provdential agency in our history at, people, This may be said | just as truly of the country to-day. In l closing, MT. Tree declared that he | thought the civil war providential preparation for the events of to-day, l and also that the Spanish war would | be a great cause of good in the future.
