The Country Prosperous.

No country has ever occupied higher
plane OF material well being than ours at
the present moment. This well-bcing Is
due to no sudden or accidental causes.
but to the play OF the economic forces in
this country for over century; to our
laws, our sustained and continuous poll
cies, above all To the high individual
average OF our citizenship. Great for
tunes have been won by those who have
taken the lead In this phenomenal indus
trial development, and most Of these for
tunes have been won not 10y doing evil.
but as an Incident to action which has
benefited the community IA n whole
Never before has material wellbcing
been so widely dffused among our people
Great fortunes have been accumulated
aud yet In the aggregate those fortunes
are small indeed when compared to the
wealth OF the people as "A whole. The

the conditions have favored the growth

we should endeayor to cut out this evil.

let US not In fixing cur gaze upon the
lesser evil forget the greater good. The
evils are real and ssme OF them are

Roosevelt's annual message was read to-
day as follows;
To the Senate mad House Of Representa-
tives:
We still continue In n period OF un-
bounded prosperity. This prosperity IL
not the creature OF law, but undoubtedly
the laws under which We work have been
instrumental In creating the conditions
which made Il possible, and by unwise
legislation 1t would be easy enough to de-
stroy it, There will undoubtedly be per-
iods of depression. The wave Will recede
but the tide will advance. This nation
Is seated on a continent fanked by two
great oceans. 1t In composed of men the
descend :nts OF pioneers or. in sense.
pioneers themselves; OF men winnowed
out from among nations OF the old world
by the energy boldness and love OF ad-
venture found in their own eager hearts.
Such u nation. so placed, will surely
wrest success from fortune.
Our Place Among Nations.
AS n people we have played a large part
In the world and we are bent upon max
ing our future even larger than the past.
In particular. the events of the last four
years have definitely decided that, for
woe or for veal our place must be great
among the nations We may either fail
greatly or succeed greatly: but we cannot
avoid the cndeavor from which either
great failure or great success must come.
Even II we would. we can not play "A
small part II we should try, all that
would follow would be that we should
play large part ignobly and shamefuily,
But our people, the sons of the men Of
the civil war. the sons of the men who
had iron in their blood. rejoice In the pre-
sent and face the future high OF heart
and rcsolute of Will. Ours Is not the creed
of the wcakling and the coward: ours Is
the gospel of hope and of triumphant en-
deavor. We do not shrink from the
struggle before us. There are many prob
lens for us To face at the outset of the
twentieth century grave problems
abrocd and still graver at home: but we
know that we can solve them and solve
them well, provided only that We bring
to the solution the qualities OF head and
heart which We're shown by the nion who.
In the days OF Washington. founded this
government and. In the days OF Lincoln,
preserved It.
