Ing Power. which Ii 70 Rock of Empire

The building OF the State Historical
Society OF Wisconsin was recently ded-
icated at Madison. Charles Francis
Adams. president of the Massachu-
sets Historical Society, delivered the
address to which he gave the title Of
The Sifted Grain and the Grain Sift-
ers." Mr.. Adams is great-grandson of
John Adams, the second president OF
the United States. He Is a writer of
mark. especially in the field of railway
questions. In the course Of his speech
at Madison he said: 1T is no part OF
my present purpose to set forth here
your sacrifices in the contest of 1861
'65. What l have undertaken to do
is to assign to Wisconsin its proper
and relative place as a factor in one
OF the great evolutionary movements
OF man. AS the twig was bent, the tree
inclined. The sacrifices of Wisconsin
life and treasure between 1861 and
1865 were but the fulfllment Of the
promise given by Wisconsin in 1848.
The state. 1t is true, at no time during
that momentous struggle rose to po-
sition Of unchallenged leadership
either in the field or in the council
chamber. Among its representatives
1t did not number Lincoln or Sher-
man; but 1t did supply in marked de-
gree that greatest and most necessary
of all essentials in every evolutionary
crisis, well-developed and thorough
ly distributed popular backbone. This
racial characteristic, also, 1 take to be
the one great essential to the success
OF our American experiment. In every
emergency which arises there is al
ways cry raised for strong hand at
the helm-the ship Of state Is invari-
ably declared to be hopelessly drifting.
But 1t Is In just those times of crisis
that a widely -diffused individuality
proves the greatest possible safeguard
1t Is then with the state as with q
strong seaworthy ship manned by a
hardy and experienced crew, in no way
dependent on the one pilot who may
chance to be at the wheel In any
stress Of storm the ships company
will prove equal to the occasion, and
somehow provide for its own salvation,
Under similar political conditions, a
community asserts, in the long run,
its superiority to the accidents OF for
tune-the alterations due to the in
fuence of individual genius, those
winning numbers In the lottery Of
fate-and evinces that staying power
which. no less now and here than in
Rome and Great Britain, is the only
safe rock Of empire The race thus
educated and endowed is the master
full race-the master of its own des-
tiny. 1t is master Of the destiny OF
others; and of the crowning republican
quality. Wisconsin, during the period
OF national trial, showed herself mark
edly possessed. While individuals were
not exceptional. the average was un-
mistakably high"
