The broad ax., 1901-04-06

night before the final contest, Col. Cash
addressed a very large meeting at l53
North Clark street, and he spoke IN part
as follows:
~Grand, beautiful, magnificent Chiea-
60, where the power Of nature has set
her approving seal, and determined as
the spot on which shall stand the com
ing metropolis Of the world; where the
rolling waves Of q fresh water sea skirt
her borders on the east; giving an out
let to the world, by craft, for her mighty
commerce, and which supplies the liquid
sufficient to turn the fOW Of her river
through the great canal which conducts
her waste on and on to the restless
oceans tide; where broad and fertile
helds stretch, in wide expanse, in every
other direction, threaded with many
railroad lines, each with numerous trains,
laden with the products and fruits Of the
mine and farm, coming in exchange for
the wares of the factory and the forge;
where charming parks and summer gar
dens, with placid lakes, forest trees, flow
ers of every hue and cline, birds Of every
note and plumage, beasts from every land,
Vergin lawns and statuary of the great
and good who have gone to the better
laid-al blending to form resorts more
enchanting to the eye and wOOing to the
heart than arose in Daphne Of old.
Enterprising, rushing, business Chica-
got Where more than a million souls
have taken their abode during the last
decade; where the smoke Of industry
rises from a score Of thousand 8ues TO
kiss the first rays Of the mornings sun
and bid him last goodnight as he sinks
behind the western horizon; where Wag-
uns, carriages, automobiles and cars ron
in mighty coneourse through her streets,
each bearing its burden Of human or in.
ter load; where mammoth building raise
their towering forms, like cliffs in tie
far-away mountain range. within whose 1
walls a rush for wealth and glory is made /
with bounding strides, unsurpassed in all |
the world; which, though destroyed by |
flames, arose again as # by magic and |
on the spot Of its origin.
Intelligent, educated, Christian Chiea-
60! Where schools for our children stand l
BY every way with armies OF instructors
patiently tOiIing that the rising genera
tions may be qualified to carry forward
the great work which awaits them;
where church spires rise on every hand,
whence chimes peal forth on Sunday
morn calling all to walk in the way that
leads to-paradise.
Eon0rsd. halloWed City Of the Prai-
riel Beloved metropolis maiden Of the
Western soil; with the bloom Of youth
stiI lingering on her cheeks and coursing
though her veins TO lend grace and
beauty to her form; yet she stands the
fourth u size Of al this grand old sphere;
and her name Is declared, By this would
Be mayor to be disgraceful and shameful.
Why should not the party Of the people
condemn any and eli such aspersicns
made azsinst herr Why should We not
continue to wOSk for her advancement;
and for he elevation Of her citizens, BY
giving her an honest government IN every
Department. Why should We not de-
clare that IN life and IN death Chicago
Is good enough for any mani believe
tins Eill Be the verdict Of TIE citizens
