!. f-OVcrSsor OF your commonwealth and
the mayor of your city. Since mv jour
Washington last Monday morning 4
nave received i'm every state through
which have passed, in every city and
village town and hamlet a genuine
greeting from All the people. md to-
night I haNe the croWntng consumna-
ton OF q welcome from the represen-
tative people of this Crescent City
Will Always Be Differences.
THE governor mes well said that we
viii always have differences. Men who
think for themselves WIN always have
convictions upon public questions. snd
those convictions cannot always be the
same The differences of opinion is
granted and freely granted, among
American free men and fully exercised
BY the American people.
Il was yTOnderiu while the governor
was talking really what We're our diff
ferenCes. Ny eyes turned towards
Judge Blanchard. and / recalleI that
we did not differ about river and har-
Dor improvements, and that we were IN
favor Of every justice and reasonable
extension for the improvement Of the
commerce of the Mississippi river
When { heard the governor tell wha5
i knew SO wei, and had occasion 50
many times to feel, how the people
of Louisiana rallied around the stars
and stripes and we've earnestly urging
for an opportunity TO go TO Cuba to
fight the battles for an oppressed peO-
pie, I could moi but think that there
war no diferences between as in the
war with spain.
'And tonight i remembered--it IS

mittee. assuring me that they must
have protection on sugar and rice And
then I reflected that there was 10 d1I-

certainly none on the ques jon on
sugar and then when = remembered.
that this banquet Is held tonight in the

II wa your territory tnat had expand
ed into more states than any other ter
ritory that ever came TO ts.e United
States. it did seem to me that possibly
we were not greatly in disagreement on
the subject Of expansion.
And. then, i remembered also that
you had always been IN favor OF in
ternaI improvements and Of external
commerce and we are all for those
things. There is nothing we need 50
much as commerce. Commerce is a
great diplomatisL Fair trading makes
fast friends. Commerce, like a cireu-
lating HbraTys carries emil ghtenment
wherever It goes. AND then remember
that we are all Tor the open door in

And then. but 7 cannot pursue It
further. for I don't think it is we'll 10
disclose too much unanimity here to-
night.
Am I mistaken when say that upon
another subject we are in agreement
We are for All good money and plenty
of it. So, when J remembered what
