Just before 12 O'Clock Tosstmaster
Timherlake In brief remarks, called on
the Governor.
Governor Powers arose and spoke as
follows: 81 shall ever remember this
occasion, not only as marking the close
of my official term as governor OF our
state, put also as the closing OF the year
and OF the nineteenth century. This
nineteenth century has been fruitful
with many blessings to the human
family. 1t Is emphatically the best from
every standpoint 1t may be viewed that
the world ever knew. AT its beginning,
Europe was convulsed In war and in the
thross of the French revolution; the
rights OF the mass of the people were
but partially recognised In all the So
called civilized countries. Slavery and
slave trading was to be found among
Christian nations. In Its onward march
we find ourselves at its close more hui
name, more philanthropio, more Just and
oonsiderate OF the rights of our fellow
men, than ever before. 1t has brought
better and truer religion, a nobler ana
higher conception of both God and man
and the universe.
"Never in the history of the world
did the masses of the people enjoy SO
much of the comfort OF life as today;
never were educational privileges and
ADVANTAGES so easily attainable, and
when we see what the century has done
In some countries for the down trodden
and oppressed think we may reasona-
bly, hore that the goth century may be
equally potent for mankind"
