was introduced, who spoke as fol-
lows:
Zone hundred and twenty-five
years ago, this American Repub-
lie announced the fact, that the
time had come for it to assume its
place among the nations of the
world.
The parentage, birth and youth
of this young and vigorous ma
ton had been a chain of marvel
lous experiences. It's cradle was
a miracle in human history. It
was picked out of the ocean on the
point of a needle. There it had
rested for many centuries, vast
continent, with majestic noun
tains, magnificent rivers, splendid
lakes, and fertile valleys. To
human eyes it was a new world.
Not until the race stood on the
threshold of the sixteenth century;
a century of wonders, and unpar-
alelled in achievements, until the
nineteenth, with it's greater mar
vels ranged itself beside it, and
passed it, was it unveiled to the
vision of mankind.
The old world was in travail.
1t was a period of turbulent COM
motion. Men of thought, had
searched the heavens, and read
the message of the stars.
Men of determination in obedi-
ence to new born intuitions cross
ed the great waters, and discover
ed and explored new worlds. Men
of skill invented wonderous de-
vices; and the mariners compass
and printing press became the
servants OF mankind. Men whose
souls God had touched became
seekers after truth, and finding
the truth, it set their spirits free.
The voice that taught spiritual
liberty, also proclaimed political
freedom. The doctrine of the
great teacher of Nazareth: '"The
truth shall make you free" long
dormant, was now awake and at
work in the hearts of men. The
fetterS that had bound the con-
sciences of men to pagan supersti-
tions were being broken. The
chains that bound men as subjects
to human masters, no longer held
them. Every where men felt, if
they did not express it, that they
were endowed by their creator
with certain unalienable rights.
Imbued with these aspirations,
| men began to agitate the rights
, of man. All Europe was thrown
into ferment. In religion the
: agitation, was expressed in the
right to worship God, according
to the dictates of the individual
conscience. This was the per-
cusor in the political world of the
right of the people to self-govern-

the perpetual winters of the frlgld,
to the endless summers of the
torrid zone.
But we here turn from the men
themselves and what they did in
war, to that which they bequeath-
ed to their posterity in peace.
And after passing over our
broad and beautiful country, the
States United, we are called to
notice the form of government
under which our national life
and existence has been perpetual
ed.
A Republican form of govern
ment for a new country and a
raw people" was thought to be
an impossibility when Washing
ton and Jefferson and Adams with
their cOmpatrlots, IN the Declara-
ton of Independence launched
successfully the State-craft of
free and independent people.
But our citizens and statesmen
have stood shoulder to shoulder
with the subjects and statesmen
of the nations of the earth; while
our Washington's and Jacksons
and Lincolns like the great Crom-
we'll of earlier history were men
who could with one hand WELD
successfully the reins of civil
authority while with the other
they hurled victoriously the thun-
derbolts of war"
Another great privilege be-
queathed to us is that of being
freeman in so glorious COM
monwealth. Every man a king,
whilst every avenue that leads to
national fame and honor is flung
wide open to the ambition and
possibilities of her humbleSt sons.
A Lincoln at % may split the
rails with which to fence his
mothers little farm, and at fifty
two rule successfully the greatest
nation of the earth. A Grant at
ten years of age may sell the pa
perS which chronicle the deeds of
a great people, and at forty-seven
from the executive mansion adj
minister the chief affairs of State.
Such is our country. And the
question which she puts to hel
SONS as they turn their eyes to-
wards ambitious lofty goal, is not
one of Birth but of Worth. She
puts no premium on the blood o.
Inheritance but has reserved hel
honor for the sterling and i'm
mortal manhood of her sons. An(
when by patience and persever
ance in seeking knowledge ant
Virtue for the same, she unhesi
tatingly and joyfully crowns then
with the honors due to solo
worth.
Let us close our remarks with
profound gratitude to God tina

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There as only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition OF the mucous lining
of the Elistachian Tube. When this
tube gets intiamed you have a rumb-
ling sound of imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored TO its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out OF ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case OF deafness (caused
by catarrh) that can not be cured by

BRITISH CRAFT

South Americans Stop
Steamer Near an Ecu
ador Port.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Oct. S.-The
newspapers here print a number of let
ters from Bocas del Toro and other ports
of Colombia complaining of outrages on
British subjects, including women. Strong
appeals are made to the government to
send -a warship for their protection and
also to demand compensation. Over
hundred refugees have arrived here from
Colon.
COLON. Colombia. Oct. 8-CPrevious
cabling Of this matter prevented. "A
force of Liberals numbering at least 250
attacked Moro Island, commanding the
entrance to the port of TumacO. Septem-
Der 24th. The island had all along been
Sarrisoned with fewer than a hundred
troops, well supplied with arms, ammuni-
ton and cOmmissary stores, including
more than 150 head of cattle and other
provisions in proportion. The landing was
effected before daybreak by means Of
canoes. simultaneously the island was
stormed from the other end by Liberals
on the mainland.
MORO Island is surrounded by shallow
sandbankS and the only means Of ap-
preaching Tumaco is by the narrow river
which is within easy range of the island.
The British steamer Quito, bound from
Guayaqutl, Ecuador, for Panama and
touching at ports between, anchored off
MORO Island on the night Of September
%, and, weighing anchor at daybreak
started up the stream toward TumacO.
The Liberals fired a shot across her bows.
SuSpecting the situation she immediate
ly turned, but rifle shots and one cannon
continued to be fired at her, the former
striking her several times and the latter
once. the ball making a hole right through
her above the water mark, though the
damage in other respects was slight
The Quito then steamed to the farthest
point the tide would permit and again an
chOred. The firing was now resumed hut
1T ceased after a few minutes, the Lib
erals having discovered the imprudence
of their action.
1t is significant that shortly after the
Quito incident became known the British
warship Icarus left Panama for a desti-
nation not made public, but presumably
Tumaeo. The steamship agents have been
otfieially notified not to accept freight at
the port.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

MANAGCA, Nicaragua, Oct. S-Severe
seismic disturbances, caused by volcanic
action in the Pacific, raising the level
Of the ocean, occurred at o'clock last
night. The Pacific Coast of Nicarag qua
was flooded to a depth of eight feet and
much damage was done
CALL BUREAU, 1906 G STREET, n.
W. WASHINGTON, Oct s.-Rear Ad-
niral John G. Walker, president of the
Nicaragua Canal Commission, was to-
day asked what significance the earth
quake last night at San Juan Del Sur,
Nicaragua, would have in relation 10 the
proposed -sthmian canal.
THAT is an earthquake country re-
Piled the admiral. They have frequent
tremors and light Quakes OF the earth
al through that isthmian region In our
forthcoming report to Congress on the
canal / 60 into the subject of earth
CuazeS at considera BILE length. The last
severe earthquake they had at Nicara qua
was in 1874 There have been numerous
light shocks since. The last severe earth
quake at Panama was in 1882.
I know nothing about last night 5
earthquake at San Juan Del Sur, (Which
IS from eight TO ten miles from the west
ern terminus of the Nicaraguan canal
route The dispatch does not say how
the earthquake was followed by a tidal
wave, which shows conclusively that it
had its origin out at sea
The fact that they have occasional
earthquakes on the isthmus will not have
any effect upon the work now in progress
toward the ultimate building Of the
canal It would be idle to abandon the
project or unnecessarily delay commence
ment Of the work because we are afraid
Of earthquakes. On the same principle
you might say ii is idle to encourage the
growth Of Southern cities because
Charleston was once visited by a serious
earthquake
Il have no doubt that this occurrence
may be used by the opponents of the
canal as a reason why there should be
no definite action taken by Congress on
the subject this winter. The Panama
canal people are hard at work to defeat
the selection of the Nicaragua route, and
their efforts are reinforced by the Pac-
ana Railroad Company, the Pacific
Steamship Company, the transcontinental
railroad systems, and in fact all those
who are opposed to the building of q
canal by either the Nicaragua or Panama
routes"
