presentment, received the support and APP
prevail of nearly One-hal of the voters In
this country. That such a party, with such
a leader and with just simplicity enough to
confuse, just sincerity enough to pretend,
and just truth enough to deceive. could
thus be sanctioned by so large a proportion
OF the American people almost passed be-
lief.
"The poor, the disconnected and dis
tressed can safely leave their cause in
the hands of those who would endeavor
at least to determine it according to the
principles of Abraham Lincoln, he. who
worked unselfishly for selfish men and
in whose large heart, with its large boun-
ty. wrechedness found a solacement. and
they that were wandering in darkness,
the light as of a home, he who stands in
crowned sovereignty, the simplest. gentlest
and noblest Of men.
THE birth of George Washington was
the sign of American freedom. The death
Of Abraham Lincoln was its consumma-
ticn. When Washington died. part only
was free. When Lincoln died, there was
no slave. The same spirit of civil liberty
hat animated Washington in his struggle

SENATOR HANNA'S ADDRESS.
Senator Hanna was introduced as the
next speaker. he received a tremendous
ovation as he arose to respond to the toast,
The Business Man in Politics. He said
in part:
Politics is a business, and very serious
business at that. AS for me, in the dis
charge of the duties TO which Of late /
have been called L have noted with pride
and pleasure the ready response of the
business man to any appeal to him on be-
half of the needs of his country. We had a
great example Of that at the close of the
last campaign, when those thousands OF
business men of the metropolis stood for
you did then. Upon you must largely de-
pend whether the great principles for
which Lincoln stood and for which we
stand shall perpetuate the foundation of
our government and its policy.
THE influence Of the business man in
politics is more far reaching than one
would at first imagine. We do not wish
to arraign class against class. The great
mass of workingmen who are the en-
ployes of capital and. therefore, the part
ners of capital, WELD a great influence
either for good or evil, as they are made
to see things. II is the duty of the bust
ness men of America to show that great
class-the most powerful because of its
numbers-that we do not discriminate be-
tween classes, but that we have their well
fare at heart. Then VIC have no fear. when
1t comes TO an issue between Republican
ism and Socialism"
Whitelaw Reid, Senator Depew and 9TH
ers spoke.

MIR. MARSH, OF GREENFIELD.
The last speaker on the regular pro-
gramme who was present was Ephraim
Marsh, of Greenfield, who responded to the
toast, 1.-THE Republican Party the Safe
guard of American institutions" MIR.
Marsh said in part:
1T is true the Republican party is now
confronting grave problemS-tne colonial
question and government of recently ac-
qulred territory-but ii will solve them as
1t has all other questions, and when 1t has
done so the American people will applaud
and sustain Its action, and. Whatever 1t
may be, whether the Constitution follows
the flag or whether they so together, or
otherwise, 1t will be to the best interests OF
American institutions n the whole peo-
pie"
In introducing Mr.. Marsh POSTMASTER
JeWett thought to have a little run with
the speaker by recalling that in 1888 Mr..
Marsh was secretary of the Democratic
state central committee. Mr.. Jewet added
that Mr.. Marsh's Republicanism must be
sound because it was of such full growth
In the outset of his address Mr.. Marsh
turned the toastmaster's Jest back upon
him by stating that in 1883 Colonel Jewett
was chairman OF the Democratic state CEN
trail committee, a remark which evoked the
heartiest burst of merriment OF the entire
evening.
In concluding the exercises Colonel Jew
EFT announced that inasmuch as the last
speaker, the Rev. ]. Cumming Smith, could
not be present and respond to the toast,
Ideal Citizenship in Our Republic" he
would call upon Ex-Governor w. S. Taylor
10 make a few remarks. Mr.. Taylor had
rot anticipated that he was to be called
on for a speech, but with characteristic
readiness delivered an eloquent eulogy upon
the life and services of Abraham Lincoln.

The stirring words of Lieutenant Cover
nor Gilbert were listened to with closest at
tenfion. and frequently applauded, while
his glowing tribute to the memory of the
hartyred President evoked much enthusi-
asm- Mr.. Gilbert announced that he was
obliged to yield the chair to Attorney Gen.
eral w. l.. Taylor, owing to the demands
OF his position as presiding officer of the
Senate Mr.. Taylor will address you,'
said MI. Gilbert. and he is one of the best
speafers in Indiana" This compliment al
most swept the attorney general off his
feet and so confused him that he could
scarcely think how to begin his address.
Mr. Taylor referred to Lincoln's birth,
ninety-two years ago. In an obscure Ken
lucky hollow, and to his humble parentage.
He aroused great interest by recalling that
forty years ago last night Mr.. Lincoln
passed through Indianapolis on his way to
Washington 10 become President of the
United States, and that he addressed the
citizens OF Indianapolis from the balcony
Of the Bates House on that occasion. Con-
tinuing. the speaker said:
He was the most human and yet the
nearest divine OF any mortal that has ever
trod this earth since the Master walked
and talked with men at Gethsemane. When
Abraham Lincoln was on his way to Wash
1nSton TO assume the duties OF President Of
the Republic one-tnird or the people or this
oantry were attempting to break away
from their former ties and set up a govern
ment OF their own. 1t was the calm, level
spirit or this great man that did more than
anything else TO keep together in one
cemented form the conscience of this coun-
try and held our country. our blessed coun-
try. together, now never to be disunited.
Abraham Lincoln is the most peculiar char
acfe' In all history. He Is the most unec-
couYstable man In history. He will live
when the great OF other countries shall
have moldered into dust. Why? Because
he flied in the niche in the broken arch
OF our country as no other man could have
or would have done. Abraham Lincoln
was the exponent as no other man in all
history has been OF the rights of the COM
mon man. In all the tide OF time, go where
you Will and look where you can, there is
no man from Adam to now that is the clear,
